Good news & Bad news - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

So the good news is that I was driving around Brooklyn and noticed that I had 4G. I did a speed test and it hit just under 10mb/s. Upload was under 1mb. However, here is the bad news: went to Settings/Mobile Networks and it would keep FC. Could not get it to open. Anyone have any input on this? I'm on stock deodexed LJC.

Is there no one else having this issue?

ive never seen this just restart the device and see if it proceeds to happen.

I had that issue, a few spent things have to be installed in order for that to work

If you removed, or froze sprint connections optimizer, you'll get FC's when trying to check mobile networks. I found out the hard way.

If your talking about the 3g icon only showing and not 4g, that's just because it's a sprint base. You're actually getting 4g.

[ROM] SlimBean for d2spr

Hello,
Posting in General as a Feeler.
I am the device maintainer for SlimBean on Verizon galaxy S3. I had gotten a request from r.suchil2 for SlimROM on d2spr so I gave it a go. I dont have the sprint device so I built this blind. If anyone cares to try it out and report any bugs, what works and doesn't the link is below. If its not to buggy I may start supporting this device as well
SlimBean http://d-h.st/P8f
Slim All In One gapps http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/all/viewdownload/91-addons-full-packages/623-aio-addons
Disclaimer, you know the drill. If not you better not flash
Thanks for this, just flashed it one thing I noticed is it says Verizon in the drop down, lockscreen and in the settings menus. But it is connected to 3G and 4G without saying roaming or anything.

Nice, it isnt roaming, i just didnt change much in the way of the make files I used. Wasnt sure if was even going to compile I'll monitor a little more here and work on getting those issues resolved before releasing in dev section.

30 Days in and my gps broke?!?!!

So I got my note 2 on day one and love it! Coming for the htc amaze 4g, the note 2 is awesome. So after 15 days I rooted my note 2. So easy when compared to the htc amaze or G1 days. Lol. I flashed jedi x-3 and everything was perfect. Then i saw jedi master 5 and flash it, I try to use my navigation but 1) gps icon didn't showed and 2) location was never found. So I nand restored to jedi x-3 but gps is dead! Has anyone had this experience? Thanks!

You may have to odin back to stock to get rid of the bug that's screwing with your gps. If all else fails, that may be your only option. Good luck.

So I am back and like I suspected I am 99.9% sure that GPS IS DEAD!!! Tried the clear the agps. Then tried to go back stock through odin, but nothing. I even went one step further and had a nand restore withnthe backup when I rooted my note 2 the first time. So everthing was working on that nand backup and went to restore with stock, but to no avail! Anyways bad luck? Maybe? Thanks everyone for the help and for your recommendation. :good: :good:

Yea I do. Download a tool called ODIN. also go to the android development forum and find the thread by author
Teshxx
Its called stock factory image. Download that file. Also search for a guide on how to return your device back to stock. Then flash that factory image
Look im being serious. If you do all this...the total time not including download time is a bout 15 minutes and your phone WILL work. I promise!

I do not own a SGSII, I'm currently on a Nexus S, but I came across this thread on a web search when I was trying to find a solution to the same problem. My friend who owns an iPhone is also having the problem, so it appears to be an issue with Telus. I may contact them today if I'm able to and try to explain what's happening.

Galaxy S3 Says E on Connection

Recently I flashed cm10, but after using it I realized that the data connection was terribly slow and instead of 4g/3g, it just shows the arrows and an E. I even odined to stock and it still has this. My family's sgs3's still have 4g. How can I fix this?

Does anyone know of a fix? If I'm correct, it all happened after flashing Cyanogen Mod 10, the stable release, from there the connection was either "G" or just "E."

Go to settings and see if imei is missing or has a 0. If it does try the fix in the development section. If that doesn't work, use triangle away to remove the flash counter to 0 and then coding stock unrooted and send it to Samsung.

This maybe completely random. But I have noticed a very strong E signal whenever my phone is not using more than that. After adding the account and a reboot. Try downloading something. It should automatically reset itself and try to find the 4G even if the 4G gives less bars than the E.

Depending on where you live..and T-Mobiles coverage where you live this may be the best you can get. Your phone is capable of 4G...but can only recieve 4G service if 4G is available in your area.
