[Q] sgh-i467 no phone

Does anyone know for sure??? if you can or cannot use the note 8 lte as a phone like the overseas version? So far no joy. Is it hardware or can we load some kind of app to make it work like the note 2?

Someone will probably have to port over the 5120 or 5100 firmware in order to try it since it doesn't' have the phone software installed. Give it some time.

Yes. But is the hardware there to use it as a phone?

Absolute worst case use Google voice or Vonage with call forwarding from your cell phone number. You can also sideload a mms.apk for texting. For call forwarding you have to enable the native dialer. I haven't tested it on this device but on the n7 3g you had to decompile the framework-res.apk and go to values, then bools.xml and change voice capable to true. This will unlock the native Google dialer hopefully. From there in the settings you can forward your voice calls to your Google voice or Vonage phone number.

sgh-i467
talking of the sgh-i467, im living outside us... couldn t find anywhere to buy it other than att witch require ssn.... d you have any idea were i can buy it ? I dont want the international version since I ould like to have the LTE.... (living in Canada...)

Skype works fine, phone calls and skype to skype calls.

XDA section for the SGH-I467
Anybody knows why there is no section for this device yet ? also I tried to search all around to find stock firmware for it but I couldn't... anybody have odin images for it ?

Take it for what its worth but I called samsung and they said the att version does not have a voice radio in it.

I used the original AT&T Galaxy Tab as a phone for 2 1/2 years. The hardware worked fine. Never heard of a "voice radio." I have heard that AT&T had Samsung remove an earpiece speaker. If true, then you'd have to use your Note 8.0 with a wired ear phone, Bluetooth device or as a speaker phone. The critical issue for me is: how will this item sell? I don't see AT&T selling a lot of them. To mean that means that the endusers will see fewer ROMs down the road. Developers here can probably root this device and unlock the bootloader. Someone will -- at some point in the next few months -- make a ROM with voice capabilities available. And don't expect "official" Cyanogen releases.
However, AT&T may block the the Note 8.0 from access to voicecalls based on the IMEI. Now, the IMEI can be hacked, but that's -- legally speaking -- a gray area. Altering IMEIs to get "free" service is illegal. Doing so to access service that you're paying for violates the letter of the law, but not its intent and won't bring about any dire result.
At the end of the day, you may be able to access (after jumping through a lot of hoops) AT&T voice services and use the phone for a year or so, but it's not worth the bother. Get the S4 and tether a decent cheaper wifi tablet to it. Yes, it's nicer to have one device, but under this conditions impractical.

phone dialer
I was looking in Titanium backup and saw a dialer... maybe this could help with development

at&t note 8.0 sgh-I467
Seems to either be to dificult to root this device or its just not practible , no one wants a sim unlock
advertisement we can look else where or google it lol, we want a bootloader unlock . If you want to talk on this model download talkatone
if you want to move apps to sd card download ghost commander there is no real good way to
root this particular device there are at least 4 or 5 versions n5100 n5110 n5120 sghmi467 and sghi467
I have tried unsucessfullyo root this device by any forums the only one that gave me root access was cwm
super user and paid version of busy box , now if you have a computer more advanced than mine then
corbins is a good one and the detoxed version using adb is good howrver there is still no custom rom
Dogmans idea of saferoot also is good to go hiwever no custom rom I even tried safestrap 3.65 from hash
code not working with this device I used flashfly and fladhed the 5120 boot.img Big Mistake corbins p cloud
i467 camf1 got me out of that wirh odin 3.07 its known Hash Code has this on todo list of devices but he is
a very busy man im an idiot compared to this genious and I surrender like I teally had a chance to defeat that
the At&t sgh- i467 variant is a complicated piece of code that only the best is going to gid er dun !!!!!!!
I hope this may help others not to have a 1count on thier devce or soft brick !!!!!!!

No Calls on O2

Hi
Just upgraded from a Note 8 4G to a Galaxy S 10.5 LTE ( might I add this is the Octa-Core version and not a 2.3 Quadcore )
Anyway...my number has been transferred to the new sim as mine was a bit butchered when I used it in a micro sim slot and I get Data SMS and no Calls as of yet....there may be a longer delay in getting voice calls from and too this device but thought I would ask if anyone knows if this is blocked on purpose.
It has to be thee best screen ive ever seen plus 8 cores and 3 gig ram....fantastic spec!!! but I need it to make calls or it has to go back
Can anyone shed any light on this
if my SMS has been enabled does this mean Voice calls should have been, my tarrif specifies 0 minutes but surely I could clock up a small bill each month if i needed to make some calls..even the guys in the o2 shop said it will make calls??
Please help as i am loving this tablet!!!
Thanks
Lee

This must have something to do with your carrier. I have a Tab S 10.5 LTE (in Australia) and it makes calls perfectly. Take it in to O2 and ask them why it's not working.

I'm also on O2 with the same issue.
From what someone told me in another thread. It's down to the tariff, not the Tablet. O2 just haven't enabled calls for the sim.

Mines going back tomorow...they told me in shop it would make calls....
Also what o2 do is split your bill so an amount pays for your device and the other amount pays for your tarrif....if they cant change this its going back
gutted!!

Calling, MMS, and data use require the tablet to be registered on a smartphone plan; at least here in the U.S. Cheaper "tablet" plans only support data.

You could always contact them in the morning and get calls enabled.

You won't get no voice calls on o2 tablet contracts. Text and Internet only.

prepay SIM in deactivated S6 Edge with T-Mobile

I have a Samsung Galaxy Edge 6 with T-Mobile from T-mobile, love the phone, but I lost my job and the bill got out of control so I have not paid in like 3 months I think now.
It was not too big of a deal since my main number is a Google Voice number and I use Google Hangouts to make phone calls and text messages by default.
Its perfect when I am at home on wi-fi but as soon as I leave and not within wi-fi of course I get no internet functionality.
For a while I saw the carrier logo at the top of my phone "T-Mobile" but now it just says "searching" where it used to say that in the upper part of the screen on every screen. (I may have switched a setting causing this or they may have blacklisted my phone I am not sure how to tell).
The phone is not carrier unlocked however if I was to go to Walmart or even a T-Mobile store, tell them I don't have the phone on me but I just want to purchase a pre-paid SIM, could I do that and would it work on my phone to get back on the T-mobile or other carriers network?
Since I use Google Hangouts for my texts and calls it is very important for me to have data. I am sure 5GB would be fine but I want to purchase the cheapest SIM which has any kind of data to see if it even works first. I do not care what number it gives me since I will not be using it for outgoing or incoming calls.
My concern is that if I go with T-Mobile pre-pay, when I put SIM in, it may reject it automatically because they may have sent some kind of SIM lock command since it is not showing carrier anymore OR they may look up my IMEI and see that I have an outstanding bill with them and not allow the SIM.
Any suggestions besides the obvious "pay your bill" would be greatly appreciated! When I can afford to pay the bill I will :cyclops:

Short answer, yes it will work.

Ok great thank you! Will go in and get a T-mob SIM tomorrow. Or actually, does anyone have advice of where to get the cheapest SIM so I can try this to make sure it works first? I think for $30 you can get 5GB data and a little talk from T-Mob is there anything cheaper? I am super-broke right now lol. I just need the data no talk.

Actually it depends on if the phone was part of the bill. If it wasnt payed off and you didnt pay them it will get blacklisted and it wont work with any carrier in the us. But if the phone was paid outright then you should be fine.

See that is what I am talking about. The phone AND Galaxy Gear S with activated SIM both were not paid off and bill is at $600 and it used to say "T-mobile" for carrier on top of phone screen now it just says "Searching" thus I am pretty sure that is a sign of being blacklisted. Even if phone is blacklisted cant I do something to make it use a prepaid SIM? Can I spoof the IMEI? Is that how they blacklist it?

I got around to trying this and no, it did not work. In fact I went to one of those third party T-mobile places which is an authorized dealer but he was still cool to talk about it with and had access to the T-mobile database.
He asked for my phone, went to the dialer app on the phone, put in a code with the numeric keypad, and it pulled up two bar codes and numbers (I think the IMEI).
He then went on his computer and put in my IMEI or whatever number was there and sure enough it said it was blacklisted.
I had a feeling this was the case when my phone went from showing the carrier logo on the top of the screen they it said "searching" after about 3 months on non payment.
So when I tried to purchase a new prepaid SIM and put it in the phone and phone restarted, instead of saying "searching" it now says "no service".
There has to be a work around for this. Maybe changing the phones IMEI is the only way but if there are other alternatives I would like to know. I can program and have been writing code since I was 12 years old but not sure if I need special hardware to flash and internal EEPROM or something like that. Any hep is greatly appreciated!
I hear there are people that I can pay to do it but I enjoying learning things like this on my own so I would really like to do it myself if possible?

Changing the imei might be possible but for legal and policy reasons that can not be discussed here

I see tons of ways to do it with a Google search super easy. But it seems TWRP might do it or at least let me backup everything including the system partition so I dont lose anything and can always go back?
Where can I get and learn more about TWRP and must I be rooted?
Can we currently root Samsung GS6 with Android OS 5.1.1 ?

Unlocked At&t Note 4 having issues on T-mobile network

Hi, I made an account on this after being pointed to this forum. Don't really know too much when it comes to phones so was hoping I can be pointed in the right direction!
I bought an unlocked Samsung Galaxy Note 4 earlier this year, it seems to originally have been an At&t phone. The model number is SM-N910A. I have a T-mobile sim in it. It picks up the network but often loses it so my phone quality can get really really bad even though I should be having service. When someone calls sometimes it will come through, but most of the time I just get a voicemail and it doesn't ring at all. It also takes a long time to start a call when I am dialing out.
I took my phone to the T-mobile store because I was hoping it was the sim card, I got a new sim but the issues are still there so it's definitely the phone.
Is there a way to resolve this? I really love the phone otherwise. I can send and receive texts and use the wifi, but having trouble receiving calls and dialing out and call quality. I was linked to these threads https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-att/help/help-updating-att-branded-note4-tmobile-t3622466 and https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-att/general/marshmellow-att-server-link-installation-t3407308 Just want to make sure this is the right step to take or if there's another fix to check out?
Thank you so much!

Making and receiving phone calls using eSIM

How are those with the LTE version able to make and receive phone calls in a "standalone" like version. Sprint agent claims that is impossible with this watch, but yet charges an arm and a leg to send "texts and receive data" WTH is that?

I found out just yesterday that Sprint doesn't support the ability to receive calls and text to the watch while away from your phone. Im a bit confused as to why they would 1) Sell me thw watch when that feature was the ONLY reason I was interested in purchasing this thing and 2) then sell me a service plan for a feature they dont even support. Extremely upsetting. The standalone feature does allow me to listen to music to Spotify using only the watch but not sure that alone is worth an extra monthly cost.
I'll be cancelling the service and sticking to my Garmin for fitness tracker and maybe using the Samsung as a daily watch.

I can make and receive calls and send texts in "standalone" mode on the lte version in the uk. When you buy the phone through your operator EE (has to be in uk) you gey unlimited calls/text and data on the phone
Sent from my SM-N976B using Tapatalk

if the lte version of the watch is properly activated on the carriers side then calls can be done when phone is off. texts and emails dont work.
if phone is on AND connected remotely, then texts and emails work.
this is a carrier gimmick to force you to have 2 plans. because everything would work with just the watch. if you can brows the internet in standalone mode then emails should work aswell. if you can make and receive phone calls then texts should also work in stand alone mode as well. just an other proof on how greedy carriers are.
also never listen to what they say. 60% of the time they give you false information and miss guide clients.

but i mean if you only have a watch and think of using it standalone LTE, you cant do anything. you need a phone on the same provider to activate the line on the watch. plus if no phone, no texts and emails....

I don't believe that to be true with this plan. With their "Digits" plan, yes, but this one no. I have heard that you can get it activated in the store using the reps phone, then it works just fine. I will try to verify it this weekend and report back.

so lets say u reset your watch by mistake and the rep got fired or is on vacation, u have a brick on your wrist? ( not to mention ull get their calls and texts and emails)
of course u can probably still use bluetooth but ull never get that number/line reactivated. im pretty sure they made the watch and phone be an obligatory tether with the carrier if u want to use LTE. its evil.

No the watch just needs to get the TMo settings, then works independently. If you have a TMo phone you can do it yourself.

yeah of course if you have both services on your account. but was just putting out there if you just buy a galaxy watch LTE and want to use it stand alone, ure screwed.

I don't know what you guys are talking about with tmo, I just got the the Galaxy Watch (R805U) from them and with or with out the phone, it acts the same. Can email, call, text, browse and such.
The way it works is the watch has a sim card (Called a esim. They function the exact same as normal sim card except it's a chip instead of a card.) It provides the LTE functions of the phone. Next it gets a Paired Digits number so it links both the devices numbers together so when one rings, they both ring even though they have their own number.
From the tmo website
All your existing T-Mobile numbers are now DIGITS lines. You can use them for free on any compatible internet-connected device via the DIGITS app or on phones with the DIGITS functionality built in.

Yes, that's for T-Mobile. My watch is on Sprint and paying $15 to receive only stand-alone texts is outrageous. They continue to say that the watch needs a software update that provides VoLTE, but nobody seems to know when that will, IF EVER, happen.

stand alone activation
can the standalone feature be activated by a non-samsung phone? I currently purchased the watch and is activated by the carrier aswell (vodafone numbersync) but the app is telling me that my phone is not compatible with the watch.
I'm using mate 20 pro btw.
