[Q] 4.3 Soft Brick Fix

Hey guys, i just made an account just to see if there's any solutions or fixes to this problem i have. I flashed MJC 4.3 on my phone and i noticed that the Wifi wouldn't turn on, at first too i didn't have any signal so i flashed the modems that the thread has provided. I searched everywhere for a solution but i can't find one that works, i tried flashing another rom while fully factory restoring everything but no luck at all. Can anyone help me?

In the same thread there is a ATT unlocked kernel. Flash it along with that Rom.

Custom roms and freezing help

hello my wife has a tmobile galaxy s4, as do i, but her wifi stopped working one day, i tried everything to fix it and nothing worked, so i rooted the phone and and flashed twpr, and tried some custom roms, but they all end up freezing on the lock screen or out of nowhere and ive tried various roms, all stable as they say on the post, but they freeze on me, im on the nh7 baseband and bootloader i used a phone info app to check. what could be causing this with every rom i tried? ive tried the pac-man rom, slimkat, google play edition, dan&ktoonz rom. ive rooted and used roms on my old galaxy s3 no problem.

Try flashing a stock rom, just for giggles & grins. See if that works before you go off the deep end.

Where can i get the stock roms

http://galaxys4root.com/galaxy-s4-stock-firmware/ Choose your stock Rom here

now are these flashable via twpr.

Tell me if they helped in anyway

Try working with this as the Web site mentioned before by Pablo has the not so latest firmware, and this is trustworthy from our own forum, just follow the instructions, read through the thread for answers in case you have any questions.

[Q] screen on lag after downgrade from 5.0.2 to 4.4.4

Can anyone help with this. I have a sprint note 4 that I rooted and was working great, but wanted the stock 5.0.2 upgrade. Used odin to install stock 4.4.4 and remove root. Worked fine phone took the 5.0.2 upgrade. Rerooted and installed wifi tether router but could not get it to work, found it is not working on 5.0.2, dam. Used odin once again to return to stock 4.4.4, rooted, installed wifi tether, everything works with one problem. When turning the screen on I now have a severe lag between the button push and the screen light up.

I odined back for other issues and still had problems. .even a backup was not working... i wiped everything, all data etc, 2 times then went back to nie....then took the otas back to lollipop. .now everything works fine except i still hate the colors

Fixed, it was a bad sd card had nothing to do with the dowgrade.

Good to hear you found your problem. However if it's tethering that's keeping you away from Lollipop then you can put that to rest because you can easily enable wifi/usb tethering without the need for a third part app like tether router (which i have payed for as well). If you expect to stay on the factory rom/firmware then Lollipop would be a wise choice due to the new ART (android runtime) and it's overall effeciency compared to KK . It has a lot of benefits and other than the stock colors, there's no reason you shouldn't update to Lollipop. Do a little searching here in the Sprint Note 4 forum and you'll find a few easy ways to enable the built-in tethering.

Thanks for the info, did exactly that, found galaxy tools would provide the tether

You are SOL for now. Cant downgrade rom OE1, but a new OTA is about to come out, I'd sit tight until then. or...Many people flash Noterized Rom. Try flashing that and continue your troubleshooting.

[Q] Wifi frosted out after un-brick

Ok bricked my Metro GS4 the first time I tried to root, did the un-root and it worked fine, except the wifi will not turn on, I installed TM 4.4.2.
I rooted it with towelroot so it is rooted, I have read that a factory reset worked for some people where their wifi was frosted out, but my question is,
1. Do I need to worry about that since I am wanting to install custom roms, is the wifi just a problem in the rom I used to flash it to, or something else that will be wrong in any rom I use?
2. If I do the factory reset, does this remove root access?

1. You should make sure everything works before flashing any ROMs. You should consider using Odin to return to complete stock, then check wifi before moving forward. Then never flash any stock based ROMs with later version OS than your modem and bootloader or you will again have wifi problems.
2. Factory Data reset does not remove root. It does remove all other user data and downloaded apps as well as things stored on internal storage so back everything up to a computer first.

You stated
"Then never flash any stock based ROMs with later version OS than your modem and bootloader or you will again have wifi problems."
I not sure if I understand, "stock based" I think I used a stock, out of the box, backup, for my un-bricking, that is a 4.4.2
How do I know if they are a later versions OS of my modem and bootloader? I see one here on XDA that is "Stock/Base" that is 4.4.4, but don't know if it is later OS or not.

Factory reset did not fix wifi, and I had backed up with Titanium, but once it restarted titanium cannot find the backup on SD card, so I guess I don't know how to do that either.

Got it going, flashed it to 4.4.4 NH7, and Titanium worked great, I did the backup and then copied them to the SD card, not sure why I can't save them straight to the SD card, but this way worked.

Got your wifi back?

Yes got the wifi going

[Q] SM-T210 no GPS after OTA update to 4.4.2

Reposted in the correct forum
Afternoon everyone, I was hoping someone could assist with this problem, I have a Galaxy Tab 3 7" wifi only, I was running everything as stock inc 4.1.2 firmware, then I was prompted for an upgrade to 4.4.2, I stupidly did this without reading up ! I use to run the Tomtom software on my tab, used it everyday for work, now since the upgrade the tab will not find a GPS signal, no matter how long I leave it, after a few hours of reading and trying different things, cache cleared, reinstalled the app, restore to stock twice (still on 4.4.2) Im at a loss. I have read once its upto 4.4.2 it cannot go back to 4.1.2 as the boot loader is locked ? I am currently downloading a clean instal from Samobile of 4.4.2 to see if that will fix it, installed via Odin 3.10.6.
If anyone has cured a similar problem or can point me in the right direction I would be most grateful
Thanks
John

sort of fixed
Couldn't seem able to find a fix for this problem I had a dabble with my Tablet, installed TWRP, backed up the 4.4.2 stock ROM, found and installed the ROM by Jon Wesley Tranchida - uber cool ROM btw - fantastic boot logo's :good: but alas, the Tablet would still not run the GPS with Tomtom. So I took a risk and found a Stock 4.1.2 ROM from here http://stockroms.webs.com/downloads deleted everything and started again, Installed the 4.1.2 Ultimate ROM, installed Tomtom again and YES, everything works okay :highfive: I really miss all the addons though that were included in the ROM by Jon Wesley Tranchida. I still don't understand why Tomtom won't see GPS or the tablet wont access the GPS on 4.4.2, after 10 hours of reading up.. Although I did read it could be some thing to do with the baseband ? its beyond me lol
