Hello, a friend of mine bought a S3 from america but now lives in germany, the phone only had english, canadian and french as system languages, so i rooted it for him and installed a custom rom, carbon rom 4.2.2 and have set it on german, but whenever i insert a sim card it asks for a network code and he cant call or have 3g because he doesnt have network.
what should i try to do, change the apn settings?
i also tried editing the nv_data.bin, but since its a custom rom there is none in the root efs folder of the device, i really need help making this device working, any advice or suggestions?

Doesn't Work For AT&T SGH-I747
Hey, While you're busy being a demeaning know-it-all you should know that procedure DOESN'T work for all the Stock AT&T phones.
I have a Stock AT&T SGH-I747
After Selecting PERSO SHA256 OFF and going back my number 4 option reads: "[4] RAT_FREE_SUPPORITNG ON"
I did not mis-spell that either.
It would be nice if you could help instead of acting superior.
Thanks

If you had followed the rules of the site and searched for your information before posting you would have found it covered in great detail that you must be on android 4.1.1 for this method to work, but instead you decided to just cry about it.

There's no crying, I just tire of some of the brainiacs here acting superior instead of actually helping. I did see that, however I'm also not sure about how to go about doing that and "some" people suggested trying it anyway, so I did.
Everyone is aware you can go buy an unlock code for $25-$30, and it will work around all of these little roadblocks, but we're supposed to be here to help each other. So, someone much smarter than you figured out how to do this to the phone in whatever version the phones current state is.
You're just quoting other people, not offering any help
Now, if "You" are aware of a procedure to accomplish this the way the phone sits then please offer some help, otherwise Lose The Attitude and try treating people with a little respect.

Pretty simple if you ask me, which you just did. Flash back to stock 4.1.1, spend the money, or call your carrier and try your luck with them.

So... Basically you don't know how to do it. You're just running your mouth here on the forum trying to act more intelligent than you really are.
Do you think I needed your input to figure out the "spend the money, or call your carrier" options?
I wanted to try the forum to see if I could find a way to do it Safely and without spending any money.
Over the years there have been quite a few intelligent and helpful people and they have provided valuable information.
You, however have only proven your uselessness to everyone. In the future either help or keep quiet!

Searching the forums is always the fastest way....

Okay. I know it's asking a lot from you but let's think for a minute. Everything I have read says the phone has to be on 4.1.1. The method you are trying which is, using the dial pad to access the phone settings and not purchasing an unlock code or calling your carrier, only works for 4.1.1 which you obviously are not on currently, hence your predicament. Since you lack the skills to search and read how to downgrade, like you stated, the only other options are to purchase the code or call your carrier. He gave you all three options that work and you are saying he is useless? Your comments are the most useless comments I have read in a long time. It's like trying to make sense out of nonsense. You are asking for something that doesn't exist and it doesn't take much "intelligence" to figure that out. Good luck.
P.S. I have a 66 Thanks Meter and only 156 posts. How helpful are your posts?
Wow, I hope you made yourself feel better now. Are you two related somehow?
Look Dink! - For Starters this was back in December, is your life that empty?
Second, I'm not the one claiming to know everything, apparently you do...
As I stated, I came looking for help and "good" advice.
You Are Truly Pathetic.
You obviously have nothing to offer either
Please find someone to change your diaper
And In the future either Help or Keep Quiet!!!
You whiney little thumbsucker.

Its 2014 and you're still complaining about a post in 2013???
Your life must be exciting!
Wow
First, do not insult anyone. Its easy to sound tough over the internet. I can bet and guarantee that you would never in your life walk up to someone and say any of that.

Second. This isn't a help website or a walk thru guide. Go to YouTube. The only one being a "thumbsucker" here is you due to the fact you keep crying about this, and looking for someone to hold your hand. Use the damn search feature and do work for yourself.
Third. As of now, no one will help you, you're screwed. So good luck "though guy"
Take your own advice and insults.
I just sold my ZF2 due the fact I didnt like the device all that much... so today I have a mission: find a replacement...
I was thinking about G4, Moto X Style (which is utterly overpriced in my country and I have no idea why) or S6...
To be honest my first choice would be the X Style due the stock android, but here (in Brazil) they are charging way more than the phone worth... its more expansive than S6 and G4 so you guys know what I'm talking about... well, I'm far alway from rich so I need to be careful about how much I spend in a phone....
My question is, what is the state of variety in the "rom department" for G4 right now? Is there a stable CM version for it? I had a G2 and here in Brazil they still didnt upgraded it to Android Lollipop... still stuck in the kitkat after all this time...
I have some concerns about the 6.0 coming for G4 the way they "came" for the G2 in here..
Anyway, thanks and sorry about my english!

Hey.
So I got this phone a few weeks ago, it came from a friend of a friend, who had gotten it somewhere probably in Asia. I had been trying hard to root it, which I achieved through many "universal" root apps combined, sorta kinda.
But now I struggle to find matching ROMs. Indeed, as much as I've googled ans searched the name of my phone, nothing but obscure chinese selling websites came out. No trace of it on xda. No trace on any english or french forum as far as I can tell (I'm from France by the way, bonjour!).
So is there a chance some of you might enlighten me regarding ROMs or the phone? It's running on Android 4.4.4
The phone itself is quite decent by the way, at least for the price I paid
Thanks and sorry if my english is not that great!

I was inquiring about my 4 year old S-9 that i am happy with ,,,,EXCEPT all the blotware Such as (MY PRIVACY) GOOGLE for !,I don't like it!!!!!

Yes, your device can be bootloader unlocked (and therefore rooted). Unfortunately it's not a free solution. But if you're interested, PM me
My 960u is unlocked and rooted. Works great, but no support for aftermarket roms.
Well I am mostly concerned about just getting rid of all this Google junk.I want my freedom and privacy
