Hi I recently helped my buddy UnBrick his phone. I odin flashed him to stock 4.2.2 . He cant turn on wifi now. I myself own the
Att galaxy s4 and had the same problem that was fixed by editing the build.prop . I am helping him over the phone and he cant find the line that needs to be edited . Are the build.prop for Tmobile gs4 and att gs4 similar? And are there any other fixes for this issue. I am going to suggest he wipes data and dalvik and cache . I just need to know if there any other solutions just in case these don't work.. So far this is all I could find..
Thanks in advance

Yes it is .. I didn't flash the att stock JB though I flashed the tmobile version .. He was able to run Skyfall which supports any gsm galaxy s4 . But I just remembered that I did attempt to put the latest kitkat on his phone and it failed in odin .. But before I did that I flashed the newest modem/baseband on his phone
im gonna go ahead and revert back to an earlier modem and see if that helps . I ran into numerous problems with his phone and it boiled down to having multiple bad downloads . He has a crappy internet connection which I still didn't think that would be a problem. But when we came to my house where I have Charters 100Mbps internet I downloaded the same files and had success . Either way I think flashing the new baseband could solve his issues . For the longest time I tried helping this guy get into the flashing world and when I would try to talk him through it on the phone I always ran into the problem of him getting a fail when flashing in recovery or Odin but as soon as he came to my house and I tried it I would have success right away...

I think im gonna flash the jelley bean baseband/modem on his phone . It has the newest modem on it which I just remembered that now . I put the latest kk stock on his phone in odin but flashed the modem first but the stock rom failed . So maybe the fact he is on jellybean now with kk modem could be the problem. I dint think it would matter but itys worth a shot ..Thanks for the feedback

Just FYI, the line you were originally asking about in the build.prop is "ro.securestorage.support=true" Just switch true to false and see how it works.

Thanks for the heads up. I had been trying to get my buddy to do it while talking him through it. He seems to not be able to find it . Not the smartest dude .. By flashing Kt kernel it did fix it .. But he seems to get a lot of fc with it .. I need to just get his phone over here again cause there seems to be zero problems when I handle it ..

has anyone tried flashing a n7100 rom with tmobile boot img and radio if so any luck? I had luck with the note one flashing tmo boot.img and radio to the at&t roms. I see someone got the 7105 rom working w multiview awsome it starts on page 2 or 3
takes a lot of courage on a $700+ device anyone up to it should get some donations, dont you think? It would be a great step onto getting the missing functionality of the device like the multiview and sidebar..
maybe

Okay here is what i did today,
Flash Stock N7100.tar via Odin, it Failed and my phone was't booting, so i had to flash Tmobile boot image to make it boot back to Tmobile rom...so that didn't work
Second download CWN stock N7100 rom and flashed it via cwn recovery, it boot but no Signal or IMEI.. Flashed Tmobile Modem still no signal or Imei, factory reset flash modem again still no signal so i gave up and Restored my phone from Nandroid and that's it
the reason i wanted to use N7100 rom my phone coz i want to tether but non of wifi tethering apps work on my phone.. usb tether works but i want wifi tether. so if anybody found a way plzz do share...
Also now i need to reset the counter of my phone i have 4 counts btw the triangle away which is made for N7000/N7100 doen't work with T889.

How did you get your usb tethering to work?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
First of all any of you flashing a N7100 ROM are silly. Of course it won't work.
Now, on the other hand, if you flash a N7105, for which the hardware is pretty damn similar to the US versions, it might work, or at least the chances are way higher.
I compiled a kernel for T-Mobile users http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33341226&postcount=557 but it hasn't been tested yet, if you're willing to give it a shot, please report back to me with feedback.

I flashed it from recovery just like any rom
Hi, over the last few days I have had nothing but problems with my efs, it took me 3 days to fix it with help from a forum member yesterday.
Anyways at the moment I am on build number DME6 with modem DMF1, I want to sell my note 2 but I want to get it like it was out the box, because the company I am selling it to checks it out before they transfer me the money.
At the moment I cant get ota updates because my system is modified! And I cant go back to 4.1.1 cos of my efs problem?
So I was wondering what else I can do to go back to fully working stock? Would I have to flash a stock rom from another region and change csc? Is there any roms that I can flash that will not mess with my efs?
I really dont know what my options are at the moment? ?
If someone could give some advice that would be great.
Many thanks

You have to flash the newer firmware (newer than dme6) even if that means choosing firmware from another region. Then root again, run triangle away, reflash the firmware and finally factory reset. Using an older firmware will result in a broken imei.

Sorry I meant DME6 or higher. You can try searching the url below for your firmware requirements. It requires registration but the selection is comprehensive.

Well if they will check your country oriented firmware then flash that chk in sammobile if not then dmg1 is the latest make sure to get a efs backup for safety.
Unroot and use triangle awaw to get system staus to normal and bianry couny 0 it will show in download mode. Flash stock and wipe data and cache after .
All will be fine by now if u hv any prob getting the status to 0 iniatally wiping will solved it after a fresh flash with odin
Im in the u.k so would DME6_DME2 BTU be ok to flash?

So I have my S4 unlocked and am using it with Metro now that they started to offer SIM cards. Everything works great with the stock T-Mo ROM. However, I would just for a day or two like to use the Metro ROM. If anyone is willing to upload a copy or knows where I can get one, let me know. Thanks.
Also waiting on this anyone have any info. Also if anyone does upload or find one will this stock rom bring everything back to stock including the recovery mode to make it look as if nothing ever happened. I guess what im really hoping for is a stock firmware anyone have a download link to one. or know of any info.
You guys should be able to use samsung keis .I used it to get back to stock when odin failed on me and it works .However you must provide the full model number and serial number of the device for it to work and it works like odin but its slower but it works it always a good when you have options especially when you need to revert to stock rom in order to send it in for repair's or exchange after you have downloaded samsung keis on your pc or laptop go ahead set it up and you will see the tabs at the top it will be the one on the right click it and follow the directions to the letter and if you've done everything correctly it will install the stock firmware and rom to your device and when its done it will reboot the s4 and your back to stock good luck

Hey thanks for the advice but for some reason samsung has not support for our device yet i installed kies before reading this trust me i tried looking everywhere for the stock firmware. in keys it just says your device is not supported. but what is weird is i dont know if i should call it a tmobile phone or just a knock off tmobile phone reason for this is. in google play store if on browser it asks u witch device to install to and it says the correct device number but at the end states tmbile. now even in kies it does this it says m919n tmb for tmobile. so im not sure what to do should i just flash tmobile firmware and then just unlock it cuz i mean from everything im coming up with it just seems that this s4"metropcs" phone is just a tmobile phone with an n and if thats the case a tmo firmware should work on it right??
Before you start flashing firmware's did you take out the battery .because thats where you can confirm that it is a sgh m919 if there is another letter at the end of m919 then you should do more research that way you dont end up with a bricked device. However if it's sgh m919 I would flash the M919 firmware for tmobile and call it a day and by the way you can get the stock firmware from chain fire's thread

I know for a fact that I have a T-Mobile m919. All I wanna do is try out the stock ROM that comes with the Metro PCS variant. No reason for it aside from curiosity.

To be honest with you I dont think you guys would ever see a stock metro pcs rom on xda because it wasn't sopprted in the past thats why you guys aren't getting anywhere with it .as a side not it always better to be safe than sorry even if is a extra step to take out the battery and check the model number there and you can check the serial number at the same location ive witness it countless times all because they wanted flash stock firmware a xtra step never killed anyone the last time I checked.

Your didnt understand what I was saying . Xda has never supported any stock firmware for metro pcs.thats why your having a hard time getting any support for the stock firmware .and as a side note it is clear that you can't flash the stock firmware for the tmobile variant code name SGH M919

Since you have a M919n, notice the N at the end of the model number, why don't you do a factory restore and save the image before you boot up again? Once you have that back up you can then upload it and share
This is all assuming you have the stock Metro ROM to begin with.

I really need the Metro Rom cause I just rooted it and wanted to unroot it and I couldn't find the metropcs stock firmware so I used T-Mobile's by accident and I can't switch back to The metro rom! I really need it.
---------- Post added at 12:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:23 AM ----------
Ok, here's my story. I rooted my MetroPCS Samsung Galaxy S4. I wanted to unroot it but used the T-Mobile .tar file when I was unrooting it and now when I boot my phone, it shows T-Mobile on the booting proccess, though when I am brought to the lock screen, in the bottom it says MetroPCS. Does anyone know how to go back to original stock firmware? I don't know how to get it for the MetroPCS version.
Tired of waiting. Went with 4.3 GPe, haven't looked back. Owning a Nexus 7 I couldn't be happier. Still wouldn't mind trying out that Metro ROM for fun. There is a demand for it. Just saying.
Will be getting a metro s4 soon so I'll have to root it and upload a tarp stock backup for you guys

Thx, I look foward to it, also I have a question. How exactly do you upload a tarp stock backup, my family member also has the galaxy s4 from metro and I could borrow it from him and upload it but the problem is I don't know how to.
Well number one you will need to root it and numder 2 you will need to install a custom recovery and number 3 once your custom is installed I suggest cwm and the person that needs the tar backup must also have cwm custom recovery as well .boot into recovery and do a complete backup .When thats done go to cwm backup folder and you should see the tar backup .now you upload it to where ever you need it and that s it on your part is done .Now it's up to person you've uploaded to and all he or she needs to do is download it and then move it to the cwm backup folder and when thats done your ready to flash the backup all should go well as long as the stock tar backup doesn't get corrupt .good luck

I was wondering did you flash stock Sprint rom first? Also did you have to do the MMS fix? I am trying to flash a custom rom for my mothers new S3 but I am not really too sure about it since it is on Boost. If I wanted to flash back to stock, would I just use the stock Sprint firmware again? Did you flash 4.3 or an earlier version? I heard that the new 4.3 update has the Knox built in like the newer devices but not too sure if what I read was correct

I am trying to flash a custom rom for my mothers new S3 but I am not really too sure about it since it is on Boost. If I wanted to flash back to stock, would I just use the stock Sprint firmware again? Did you flash 4.3 or an earlier version? I heard that the new 4.3 update has the Knox built in like the newer devices but not too sure if what I read was correct

This is my first post. Whenever i try to flash a sprint version of any rom on my gs3 from boost my LTE doesn't work. The only way my data will work is if i switch it to CDMA which means no 4g. I even tried dialing ##72786# to reset my data connection but that didn't work either. Does anyone know of a solution to this?

That's correct. If your data doesn't work you'll have to change your APN settings since most of these ROMs are for the sprint s3 and not the boost mobile. I flash ROMs a lot and sometimes the data work so I won't have to change my APN. If you need help with that I can help

thanks very much for your reply, you are the right person ive been looking for about a month now. i have downloaded a sprint stock rom JB 4.3 from sammobile for which id be flashing to my new boost mobile s3.
the essence here is am in Ghana with this device and obviously i have to change carrier because i cant have boost service here. My phone is still fresh in box and locked for that matter (only upgraded to JB 4.3 OTA). I would just like to unlock it for NAM configuration any help? Do i realy need to flash a sprint rom first?
version (*#1234#)
AP: L710VPUBMK5
CP: L710VPUBMK5
CSC: L710SPTBMK5
PLS HELP ME UNLOCK THIS DEVICE
I really don't know how to unlock a phone but I wouldn't mess with your phone since you did the OTA update to get 4.3. You have Knox now and that's bad to have. You can mess your phone up and void your warranty if you do anything with that knox

no i havent tried that yet : o
do i just flash the file the OP said to flash first in Odin under PDA and the ill have 4.3?
Give SN 4.3 a try it's smooth and stable for me no FC's, Wanam Xposed is the bomb! (Std version not the Note3 version) Not sure what carrier you're on but I can confirm that you CAN go back to 4.1.2 effortlessly by following steps listed in OP section.
I had no end of troubles installing with latest TWRP 2.6.3.1 installed it just does not seem to play well with 4.3 at this time. Philz CWM based recovery however solved all issues smoothly. Not a knock on TWRP I've used it on every device I own and still say it's the standard others aspire to!
I had the same problem. I used one click and Pilz recovery. TWRP was the issue.
