hello,everyone. I bought L900 from ebay,then when i got it, i began to change it,i use the i605's sim chip to take place the default,then i began to use note2 tool kit to flash the insecure stock lj1 to the phone,then the recovery,and i use the recovery to flash the ljc moden and an avkp8's rom,now I use dfs to set the ruim config to ruim only and the set the data pap an ppp account,last change the mobile ip.then reboot the phone (I have successfully change the five l900s to adjust our country's mobile network,this time i do the same job) but i found it could recognize the gsm and wcdma‘s network, i counldn't see the cdma's signal only when i insert the cdma uim card,the signal display like a circle and rod.but in phone's info i found the esn and sid prl could be read out( i have set the network automatic),just like sth prevent it to connect the mobile network.
then I use the root66's stock alj1's rom to restore the phone use ##786#, then i use cdmaworkshop to write cdma parameter to the phone,still no cdma network, the signal display like before, I have check the TOP Q&A,and sb no network connection’s way they always say stock rom restore,but it doesn't work,what can i do now?:crying::crying::crying::crying:
1. this is illegal and cannot be discussed on xda.

l900 cheaper than i605 but configuration is same.so the reason is very simply.
may i ask how can i reset all NV item. and why i see sb say change the meid and phone lock?
No promises on whether or not it'll work for your situation but you can try ##72786# in the dialer. And this isnt illegal. And I'm pretty sure sewing as how there are guides here showing u how to do this that its allowed to be discussed

Unlocking bootloader (rooting phones) is actually illegal. Since last year. So we all kinda "broke the law" by unlocking our device's. Read itt on flipboard last year. I dont know if it still applies

I have read nothing saying rooting saw illegal. Only unlocking. Unlocking being carrier unlocking.

hi,I don't want to talk about how to hack the phone,I just want my phone normal using. so i really want to know how to recovery the nv item ,i just want the network connection come back when i use cdma frequence （800-900 mhz）. And why the mobile network gone,even if i write back the first parameter.

I traded a note for a t999 last night, but I was unable to immediately check phone connectivity due to not having a micro sim handy. So today I get a micro sim and call my provider, (simple mobile), and they change my sim number for me.
My card will not register with the network. i get bars that show signal, but phone information shows no service. I have no data even with the corrrect APN. Simple Mobile Tech support says they have registered the SIM but it does not show as connecting.
I went to tmobile and they used one of their sims on the phone, but again, no registration.
The phone is rooted, I can boot it into CWM.
Im thinking that the prior owner messed something up, possibly by changing a radio/modem or something. Im not sure I can even warranty repair it via Samsung because he rooted it.
Does anyone have any suggestions? PLEASE?
Odin back to stock?

Sounds like you have a broken pin in your sim slot. I'd bet money on it. I think there's suppose to be 6 and if 1 breaks this is what happens.

i tried flashing back to stock using Odin, but it makes no difference. flash count shows 2. Does this mean the phone is not covered under samsung warranty?
You can reset the flash counter. I believe the thread is in android development on how to do this.

The phone's IMEI could be blocked if it is not able to connect to network
I've went through hours of research and to no avail feel as thought I've gotten nowhere.
I bought this phone used, with what looks to be from an AT&T carrier previously (based on start up screen). Did not come with original SIM card. I want to be able to use StraightTalk services with it, and have already bought the SIM and is on its way to my house. I also want the ability to uninstall the factory installed apps that AT&T locked onto the phone.
From what I was informed, getting the calls and texts from StraightTalk onto the phone will be a simple task. Using StraightTalks 3G internet however wont work. That's were the unlocking comes in. Unlocking will also let me uninstall those factory apps as well I hope?
Would greatly appreciate any help I could get on this topic and hope that maybe this will help any future views with the issue.
Thank you!!!
No need to unlock. Your data will work fine as long as you adjust apn. To rid your phone of bloatware however you will be required to root. Not unlock.. The iphones are a little different story, but you don't have that so don't worry about it

Excellent! Will the APN change take place during the StraightTalk transfer when I put in the new SIM card? Manually, Automatically?
Also, rooting could be potentially dangerous based on what I read. Are There any good guides on this?

APN change takes place once the StraightTalk SIM has arived. Details are suppose to be provided within shippment.
What I don't understand is, once I put the AT&T Compatible SIM into my phone and transfer my number over, without unlocking the device this is, will the service be provided over AT&T towers?

No, you will have to go into settings, mobile networks, and search when the new sim card is placed in the phone.
Rooting is not dangerous, installing things on the phone that aren't made for it or installing apps from non trusted sources are dangerous.

As long as it is ATT and not TMO sim it will use ATT towers to deliver service to the phone.
Hello All,
I am trying to edit the build.prop to enable data during calls in my N7100 (UK O2 network). I added ro.ril.enable.dtm=1 to the build.prop file, rebooted the phone and phone hang on the Samsung logo. Anybody know how it should be done?
Thanks guys.
It's not recommended to use data during calls.
To get out of logo hang try flashing stock rom.

Thanks for the rpely UtkarshGupta. I've already restored my device from backup, but it will be great to know why I cannot use data during calls.
Don't know exactly about it but my network provider does not allow it either , I tried it on s2 but outcome was fail. Have you ever seen it on any other phone that uses data during call bcoz I think its something related to network provider as my s2 booted without sim card.

I read on several threads that GSM networks allow data and voice at the same time and CDMA doesn't. I am in GSM and surprised I cant change the build.prop for this.
Is it not a network restriction.... Some networks allow it and some don't?
Edit: I can call and use data simultaneously using EE with my note 2.
This is while using 3g/hsdpa. It may not work on gsm/gprs

however if your network changes to 2g or from 3g to hsdpa Youll loose data altogether until you end your call I'm same network, same phone. and it drives me nuts using Navigation + phone at the same time

At&t allows call and data in the USA. I haven't tried it on my note2 yet though. I hope it is not restricted by Samsung.

I would call my service provider and ask about this, I've never had any issues with this, and pretty certain that I've used data and navigation constantly switching between modes while in calls.
I think it's pretty obvious that there is no limitation in the note 2 itself regarding this.

Ok SO I could not find a proper thread for this since there are SO many threads. The issue I'm having is I got a Samsung galaxy S III that was unlocked, and after I put my ATT sim into it I could recieve texts and calls but I could not recieve data. So I rooted it and applied clockwork with all my mods and figured I could find some setting that would fix it... well I was wrong. I tried global, GSM and LTE settings none of which would give me data. If there is anything anyone can do to help I would be more than appreciative.

While I agree that you should always call at&t so they can register a device to your account, this will not help his current data issue
OP, is this an international s3, T-Mobile or at&t? What firmware/rom is installed? Again, verify your imei is intact
Ok so this is a verizon Galaxy S3. It is rooted running 4.1.2 JB, Kernal 3.0.31. After I got the phone I did go to an ATT store to register a micro sim because i didn't have one at the time. So the imei is registered to my sim card perfectly. I can get calls and texts without any issue but no data. How do I figure out what the apn settings are and if I have the right configuration?

You do realize you're trying to use a cdma phone (verizon) on a gsm network (at&t), right? Different radios. Different technology. Won't work
Well it was unlocked at the phone has a gsm option so if it wasn't compatable I don't see why they would have the option there to actually use a gsm network.

You need to read more.
this phone only supports GSM with EDGE data.* This essentially means that you'll get 2G data speeds (unless you have a WiFi connection) because it doesn't support UMTS/HSPA+ which is required for international and U.S. 3G data. the 4G LTE frequency supported by this phone is only used in the U.S.* For those who don't know UMTS/HSPA+ is the 3G technology used by GSM carriers internationally (and used by AT&T and T-Mobile in the U.S.) which is different from the CDMA/EV-DO 3G technology used by Verizon and Sprint.*
This phone IS unlocked, that part is correct. But only for gsm carriers
So its preventing me from recieving ANY form of data possible?? It is a Verizon phone and I have ATT so you mean it doesn't support GSM then right?

You're in an at&t s3 forum with a verizon s3 that has zero data. If you really want to pursue this issue, you should start looking around in the Verizon S3 forums

If I'm not mistaken, some Verizon devices will not work on US gsm networks even if unlocked, only foreign gsm networks.

If you are going to stick with AT&T, that is the way to go if you want to have data. No worries. Stupidity is only if you didn't learn anything. You had ignorance of the situation and now your don't. Do some research on any phone before you buy next time (especially if branded from another carrier). This can save you a lot of headaches as you have just learned. Just remember some basics from this forum. Good luck.
Sorry I m a Beginner in the android world, so i will do my best to explain my issue
Please help me all help needed
1) I bought a Galaxy Note 2 from a person - he said that Note 2 was BLOCKED by T-mobile - I verified with T-mobile and the IMEI is indeed theirs and it is BLOCKED - so we know this is a REAL phone, NOT a clone
2) when I bought it he said that the phone was unlocked and is being used on AT&T - I verified and saw that he was using on AT&T network before he Reset everything and gave to me.
3) i went home and put in my AT&T sim and the screen read "Sim Network Unlock Pin" with Unlock and Dismiss button below. I thought this was the sim lock, so i removed the sim lock, but it still show that on the start screen - so here I thought that the Phone Might have been Un-Unlocked due to Reset.
4) I went ahead and follow the direction on how to unlock S3/Note 2 from XDA (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2014982), - btw i did this Successfully on 2 S3 before. Here is another problem: Under Lock Network screen (option 6) I cannot see option 4: [4] NW Lock NV Data INITIALLIZ (Does not exist) - So I have no way of unlocking it since this option is not available.
5) I thought that he did somekind of custom rom, but no - i checked and the Binary counter is 0 - phone status is Normal.
Please help me.
All I want is to use ATT now.
Please help me I will stay all Night till this is solved.
Thanks all in advance.
BTW attached is my About screen in case anyone have question.
*** second issue that we will talk later is - i have another note 2 bought directly from t-mobile with 4.1.2 - this one does not have [4] NW Lock NV Data INITIALLIZ . either. - how weird.
I check at the store and their note 2 4.1.2 HAS that option. !!! - we shall talk about this issue at another time
Can anyone please help me

No, i dont think they share blacklist. When i bought the phone it clearly showed att and use normally, then i took his sim out and reset the phone and brought it home. Test with T-mobile sim right away (i have both tmobile and ATT) - t-mobile say SEARCHING.... it is block so could not find any net work, but when i pop in at&T it said "Sim unlock pin"
Also the reason y i know t-mobile and att don't share the same black list is because i used a blocked s3 on att before
Oh, learned something new today!

hi,
i did some research and i think T-mobile and AT&T will potentially share the blacklist - but don't know it worked on my s3 before.
I just came up with an IDEA and would like to hear from Pros see if it will work.
What is if Install Samsung ROM - but the international version (usually my t-mobile i would download tar.md5 from t-mobile, same for att). What would happen to my phone if i download and install International rom - would it make my note 2 INTERNATIONAL - that mean it is NOT lock to any carrier?

Stay clear from blacklisted phones. Solves this issue
I hope that blacklisted s3 was not the phone someone stole from me.. I would never buy a Black listed phone. I do know all of them are not blacklisted because reported stolen. But if you take the ability to sell them People will STOP STEALING THEM..
Just as a quick note. In The future it might be best to not Buy blacklisted or bad imei Phones.. Some are from contracts not fulfilled .. Questionable as to rather a carrier should be able to black list or not..
But equally number of them are STOLEN. What if it were your phone.
I so was not going to write this post . But it It really much different then software piracy or buying Stolen goods...
Just my opinion.. Ohh and yes i think the carriers are evil in near every way.
Good Luck and hope you get it fixed but only if it was not a Stolen phone. if it were . Well my above comment will tell you my thoughts.
Is there a way for you to talk to that person and ask him where he got the phone from? i hope this gets resolved ASAP
Hello all
Thanks for helping.
Indeed i have downgraded to 4.1.1 and now have 4 option and was able to unlock it for AT&T
However, i have a silly question that i hope to find a RIGHT answer.
I know that we can do Custom Rom for note 2 - however, I was wondering if we can install ATT OEM Rom to T-mobile note2, or T-mobile OEM Rom to AT&T note 2?
DOnt know if i made it clear enough.
Please help.
Thanks
