Precursor: I have tried multiple roms both ICS and JB.
Ever since I rooted GB27 after doing all the OTA after getting my referb I can't turn 4G on. The status goes from Unknown to Enabling back to Unknown. I have 3G just fine, can connect to Wifi just fine, just can't enable 4G. Any ideas? I've tried a couple different things I've found here but so far nothing is working. My next step is reflashing my ROM with no external SD card in.

Have you tried flashing different modems? If you are running GB27, then you have to run a jb modem. But you can't flash modems through mobile Odin, has to be done through pc or cwm.

The modem is separate from 4G. have seen something like this before and it was a hardware issue... Another instance was because of a virus protection app that was installed on the users device.

I know its a dumb question and will never happen but I've always wondered why we couldn't have OTA updates for a rom, say CyanogenMod. Why couldn't we like get a notification of a new nightly or release and then accept the update and everything is done, with the rom downloaded, a backup made, rom installed, gapps installed, and phone re-setup exactly how it was, like an OTA from sprint? Now don't go saying Rom Manager because I know you can kind of do that from the app but it really isn't the same as a real OTA from sprint.... you guys get what I'm saying?

ROM Manager Premium has that option but the devs would have to initiate it.

Personally I think it would take way too much effort to set up but would be wonderful for the end user. I don't see it ever happening due to the amount of bandwidth involved.

Right, it only checks when you log into it if I remember correctly.
Forced ROM OTAs would require your phone to send out a notification that you are still on that ROM and waiting for an update. It is not like Sprint's servers where they know what phone and what firmware you are supposed to have. Then the developer would also be responsible or at least answer for borked OTAs like Sprint is. Not practical at all.

Yeah I see what your saying. Would be a cool thing though, have everything the way you had it just with the newer rom with just a press of a button!

Cm7 nightlys with rom manager premium would pop up a notification every day a new one was out, I would click and it would download, click again and it would reboot and install. I think it even gave the option to backup first.

No. They disabled a lot of the dialer codes starting in UVALH2. So the latest official update already had the vulnerability patched. This is often the case when stuff like this gets publicly released. Its usually already addressed. I mentioned it a couple times in the thread someone started yesterday.
As far as im aware the leaks are still 'on hold' for all devices. Still not sure why Samsung did that though!

Just out of curiosity, did you try clicking on a link, or entering the dialer code to test it out?
Im just curious if they actually did disable the dialer code or if they just prevented it from opening by pressing a link.
FYI, I tried the dialer code and it did still initiate the factory reset, BUT, im also running a sort of hybrid, frankensteined rom where ive been playing with different apks from different leaks. I may have changed something that caused it to work for me.
(Im planning to reflash everthing later an will test again anyway, just curious as to your experience). Also what rom and build are you using?

yup, thats pretty much it. Most of the time we wont hear about an exploit or other security flaws until after the problem has a fix. Its just plain poor judgement to basically advertise a major issue before that.

Thanks for specifying that for me. Kinda surprised though since they disabled many of the dialer codes, figured they would've done this one as well. In the end I assumed itd be one of the two, or both. (The disabled codes I keep mentioning are only partially so. You can still execute them via cmd line).
