My phone has not found the ota update.....I keep trying ....what can I do

are u rooted or no?

Go to sprint.

I tried to root but I don't think I am

my advice to u is to root it and get it that way and flash a rom..i can send u a link to a tutorial search me on twitter..my name is b1indsided there too

Unfortunately I'm on the road and don't have access to a computer

you know u can do it on ur evo lol but if 4 whatever reason u cant just search me later and ill help u get the matter resolved.period

Where can I find the instructions

its a video tutorial on youtube that makes it super buttery ez from a friend of mine.... search this "EASY! How To Root Your Sprint Evo 4G (Part 2 of 3)" watch parts 2 and 3 and your good

I searched the video....but that's what I was saying I don't have a computer

Oh wow if you don't have a pc period then contact Sprint. This is all you can do. Or use a friends pc. Root gives you more options. Keep that in mind

No Data on cm10

Hi all Got a little issue here running cm10 just flashed from ics looks great runs smooth great job guys but here is the problem no data? I have my epic 4g touch flashed to metro pcs I went thru the instructions several times have wiped everything started over numerous times but still no data. The icons don't come on or anything. At this point I am stuck I have pretty good knowledge on how things work around here if someone can take a moment and point me in the right direction I would be very grateful. I saw another post on no data on cm9 and claims doing a nandroid back up from previous rom then flashing the restoring works but that did not work either was very brief in what he had done so description wasn't very clear. So that I can get a good reply this is exactly what I have at this point: SPH-d710 phone Android ver.4.1.1 Baseband Fh23 Kernel ver. #.).15-cm-g4471ee1 [email protected]#1 CyanogenMod 10-20120901-unofficial-d710 Flashed metro pcs with everything working talk txt web mms. Again Thank you all for any help in this matter these guys do some great stuff and would like to use this software. Keep up the great work guys.

To get data working on non-TW ROMs you have to replace a few files in the ppp folder. I don't have the Metro PCS files though, I only have the Cricket files

Do you have a description on how you did that on cricket and I can look for the metro files needed? Or a link would be helpful?

Sorry for the REALLY late reply.
This is the thread that lead me in the right direction: http://www.cricketusers.com/sprint-samsung-galaxy-sii-epic-4g-touch/32209-web-cm9.html
And this is the post with the flashable zip: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22162851&postcount=10
It says it works for "alternate carriers" but I'm on Cricket so I'm not sure if it'll work for Metro PCS. You can give it a shot though. Let me know how it goes.

Trying it now thanks will keep you posted on what my findings are thanks again for the pointer fingers crossed.

Was a no go thanks tho hopefully one of the developers will be able to point me in the right direction. Thanks again

Maybe look through this thread? (http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-all...-evo-all-info-here-rom-metrogenmod-7-1-a.html)
Edit: You could try the AOSP web script from this thread also (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=795182)

I have the exact same problem but am now on blue kuban for the same reason... if you find a solution let us know i might try cm10 again

I will do some research and update you all on the outcome thanks again for the info

Ok looks like I may have to go into qpst and edit my internet settings but have ran into a snag on cm10 cant get the program to recognize the phone if I could get it to pick up the phone then I can reedit the settings for my data to work but like I said at a snag. Will update as soon as I can figure it out or something changes on the rom to access the modem. Any help would be appreciated.

just flashed cm10 will try something out also after thursday when i have time after school

SOLVED flashed the zip on Paranoidandorid 4.1.1 works like a charm thank you your awsome have a nice day :laugh:

Found a answer
Ok boys and girls I found the stepping stones to how to make this work now mind you I am still working on it. This is what I have done thus far I went to playstore downloaded apn shortcut as soon as it hits your home screen you can click on it and change your apn settings to whatever carrier you are on then I went to my dialer and typed as follows *#*#4636#*#* this opens a window if you scroll down some you will see it say something other than cdma what you want there is auto cdma (prl) as soon as I did this the data came on now Im not in a good signal area but it came on it only showed 1x tho I do not know if that is because of my area. If anyone can test that and let me know we might have made progress and if I am doing something wrong feel free to tell me what it is. Again any help in this matter is greatly appreciated and if this helps don't forget to say thanks lots of long nights trying to figure this out. :good:

Ok figured out
Finally success the only issue is I'm only getting 1x I flashed the alternative carrier fix then I went to the dailer and typed in *#*#4636#*#* then scrolled down and changed the setting to cdma prl auto and data started working so now Im trying to get answers on 3g coming on sorry took so long to figure out Im still learning myself if you guys need the link I can post it if necessary. Also when you go in and change the setting to cdma prl auto you mayhave to click it a couple times for it to stick it may change itself to unknown just click it againg to cdma prl auto again til you get the data going and then it will stick. If this helps don't forget to say thanks

Lol didn't realize we were on page two didn't see your post I guess my question now is is your 3g working?

ok Im here

Tablet UI transparent status/sys bar HELP

Ok guys,
Im going to post this in every Note 2 variant forum until I can figure this out.. I mmanaged to get a working transparent status/systembar on my note 2 on tablet UI.. the only problem being that my phone totally locked up and being the DUMB a$$ that I am I did create a backup.. reflashed a rom and thought I could recreate it.. I have located what I think the files name is and it is tw_status_bar_background.9.png. Now when I try to recreate it the status bar becomes all distored when pressing something.. I will show you pictures below of it working and it NOT working.. Any help or guidance would be much appreciated.. I am not asking anyone to give me a step by step but more of just yes thats the right file or no thats not it..
PS the black line you see at the bottom of first pic is bc the wallpaper is not scaled properly, which can be fixed..

well, i have started to mod my phone with tablet ui for more than a year but still yet to release anything athough i am using it on daily basis from note -> s3 -> note2 now. however, since the updates were rolled out quite frequently in the last year, i had to switch to new firmwares and redo/rewrite the changes accordingly because there were quite a lot of fundamental changes recently. this process is time consuming especially i employed some parts of firmwares from other devices as well as the custom features i added. so, i am not sure when i can release something since i modded the kernel and the rom as well in my own way which compromises the usual practice in terms of structure and so forth. that means i have to make sure it is compatible with other roms first, and then i must ensure i have time to solve and fix users problems

Are the bootanimations for aosp roms simple zip files? Or do then have to be zipped a certain way? I editted out the little circle under the Guy Faux mask that comes with the Infamous rom and I just get black screen on boot during the animation sequence. Without the edits the Infamous animation file works fine on aosp roms. But with my edits and rezipping the files it doesn't load at all.

They are simple zip files for AOSP. Make sure your picture file names are chronological. also check the desc.txt file to ensure it matches. as well as the part0 etc folders. there honestly isn't much to them, really strange how it wont display properly. and are you re-zipping, or simply drag and dropping the edited file to the zip?

I was rezipping. I will try just dropping the files into the existing zip.
I didn't change any of the other stuff like file names or anythinng. I just took the existing jpg's and edited out the part i didn't like and resaved them as the same file names.

what kind of format and compression were you using on the jpgs? Also, what program did you use to edit them? And what color depth?

Windows Paint.
I wasnt doing anything more than adding a black box over top of a section of the animation I ddnt like. But I dont think that was the issue because I left some frames of the animation untouched and those didnt work either.

You should take video and make that into a boot animation!
Of course you'd never reboot your phone again....ever...
Good luck with the dentist. Do have someone take video of you leaving the office. From what Im told I was quite the entertainment for about 3 hours as the drugs wore off. I don't remember a bit of it. Though I kind of remember hitting on the nurse....

And not sure if I actually posted it, but upload the pictures you want edited just zip them up. I'm pretty sure it's paint's save format that's breaking it.

Is there a zip that I could flash to get my stock notifications in my status bar?

I flashed sacs note 5 port and im not really a fan of the lte sign for my signal. I like the stock one. Anyway there is a zip i could flash to get it back? Thanks!

I am on the same amazing ROM from ya boy Sac. What you are referring to is the new "heads up notifications" and I hate that crap also. Download the SQLite editor app (found here... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.sqleditor ), follow the attached screenshots and change the "heads_up_notifications_enabled" value from 1 to 0. You may need to reboot for the change to work.

Hey thanks for the reply. I followed your steps to the T and unfortunately it didn't work for me.

Not sure why, your obviously rooted and I am on the same ROM as you. There is also an app called Heads Off that should do the same thing, give this a try.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jamworks.noheadsup

Hmm i just tried that heads off bit i didn't see what I was looking for. I know there's a way. I was looking through all of the posts in sacs thread and someoje posted a screen shot and I saw he had the sprint spark icon. Im using 'Flat style bar indicators' on xposed. But i can't seem to get 4g in front of the signal bars. So basically i just have bars...not knowing if I'm on 3g or lte. Sorry for being a headache. Just like all my stock stuff up there. The rom is amazing though. Can't wait for another update. Thank you again for your help

One more thing. I messed with my keyboard the other day and had to reflash stock s6 one. Now i dont have the symbols inside the letters. So i cant long press for a '?' Anymore i have to go to the symbols. Pretty annoying lol. I took a screen shot but i honestly have no idea how to add it to this post.

Best to ask in the Note 5 thread, cant help with that.

Cool thanks for all of your help. I appreciate it

The signal icons used on the status bar are determined by the build prop. "noble" devices use the icons which you don't like. (not to mention that they are not sized correctly in his N5 port). "trltespr" devices use the sprint spark icons that you are wanting, However changing from noble to trltespr can also effect other features in the rom. If you want the sprint icons then you will need to change the ro.device entries in the build.prop to reflect trltespr... use our N4 OG5 build.prop as reference and you will see what I'm talking about. Last thing. Making these changes in the build.prop requires a factory data reset so that the rom can setup again with the new configs. Simply editing them and rebooting will not do the trick.

Usually i dont mind doing something like this but i dont know what to change in the build.prop . If there was a guide I'd read it. But thank you. I'm glad you know what im trying to do lol

So i found this. .... https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct...988642&usg=AFQjCNEq-YSRLtSLgHf6b8pLijNw0sFyGg ......but it doesnt tell me which line to edit. Then i found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...ps/mod-edit-build-prop-international-t2951057 ...but i cant see the pics that shows you which lines or line to edit....sorry im trying here lol

I got it...thank you very much. Now id like to adjust the size of it but i didn't see that anywhere
