upgraded to 4.4.2 now what? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

So I made the *BIG* mistake in upgrading to 4.4.2. Now I want to venture and install CM11 4.4.4 but I have no custom recovery, am I SOL? Or is there a way to install a custom recovery? I got the device rooted. I tried to install one but it gave me selinux enforcing blah blah.....

What's wrong with 4.4.2? It was a great update. You can install a custom recovery, but you will trip knox if you haven't already depending on how you rooted.
Use my how to guide in the general forum to install TWRP recovery. Just so you know, there are things in CM that are still not working for our phone (NFC and ambient temperature sensor) and a few unresolved bugs.
Give it a try and see if you like CM. You can also flash my ROM and try that if you end up missing all the extra TouchWiz feautures that you lose.

To be honest with you, absolutely nothing is wrong! I just installed CM11 4.4.4 on my Galaxy S4 and the performance on it is superb! And now I can cast from the OS instead of using Chromecast. You have a link to your ROM? Is it 4.4.4? I'll check out the custom recovery you mentioned. BTW I don't use TouchWiz at all (well, unless its a built-in feature I am forced to use. I use Apex launcher so I won't notice any difference besides the dropdown task bar and settings page I believe...

No.. it's 4.4.2 NF9 based but there aren't any major changes between .2 to .4 for our phones. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2746172

I'm trying your ROM but it's not connecting to 4G lte... any ideas?

Wonder if MetroPCS (which used to use T-Mobile APN) are switching to use their own APN? I installed CM11 last night and to my surprise it had a MetroPCS APN...and it worked, but T-Mobile ones didn't... Odd...

Do a carrier search within my ROM and see if MetroPCS comes up, if not, copy the settings from the CM11 APN that worked and create your own APN. I'm not familiar with what APN MetroPCS uses, but if you have the settings, you can create your own.

Will do that after I play around with CM11 4.4.4... I think I like it, it's snappy and fast and has a few extra features (wifi hotspot, torch, casting (chrome) all of these from the dropdown) and it is very customizable. We'll see if I find a reason to go back to Samsung 4.4.2....

I work at a MetroPCS in southern CA, below are the APN settings I use on my Galaxy S5, as well as my wife's Note 3. Hope it helps!

[Q] ICS and MMS issue on Desire Z

Hi everyone. I'm kindda new here and I'm having a problem with ICS ROMs. Hope somebody help me.
Has anyone having MMS problem with ICS?
I almost tried every ROM on development topic but never could received or sent any MMS messages.
On almost every Sense ROMs, no problem with MMS but with ICS, its stuck on screen Sending or Receving.
Any thoughts?
PS: Sorry for my English. Hope I could explained the problem.

Thanks but I checked that like million times. I erased and re-entered settings but no solution.
Here what must be the APN settings on my carrier:
Turkcell MMS
carrier=”Turkcell-MMS”
mcc=”286″
mnc=”01″
apn=”mms”
user=”mms”
server=”ht tp ://wap.turkcell-im. com.tr”
password=”mms”

mmsproxy=”212.252.169.217″
mmsport=”8080″
mmsc=”ht tp://mms.turkcel l.com. tr/servlets/mms
type=”mms”
Like I said, using exact same APN settings on both ICS and Sense but it works on Sense, never worked on ICS.
nobody having this problem? is it just me?
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda app-developers app
Nope I have the exact same problem. I have taken the apn settings from a gb rom and copied them exactly and put them on mimicry and no love. Even looked at another phone running ics to check their apn settings and they were the same as what I have on here but still no love. Sometimes customs take time to get everything going.
Sent from my G2 running Mimicry 1.5.0
It'd been documented in some of the ROMs with some people (not all). I believe it has to do with the combination of APNs used for MMS and data. I don't believe there has been a true fix for it yet.
Its really annoying, and there must be solution for this.
Why its working on Sense, not ICS?
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda app-developers app
It's said friend but it's true, I had the same problem that u have in HTC Explorer. Here is the explanation!
With the old ROM I had (GB version) the thing was easy to control because you had a switch for data traffic and the MMS was nothing there (we could "play" with the APN).
Now with ICS what happens is that the same server to switch to lock / unlock both the traffic data and MMS, if we turn off one, we turn off the other ...
So, I understand that there is no other solution than to turn on data traffic?
i use the o2 mms/apn settings on my dz. for me mms/ browser is working fine. i'm almost traveling in berlin.

I don't if it'll help but have you tried any other radios?

Using .19 radio and tried some other but no solution.
I don't think its about radio. With same radio i'm using now, everything just fine with MMS on Sense. But not working on ICS.
I noticed something on CyanogenMod 10 [Build 121], when i try to send a MMS, it disconnects from server, operator sends me message about my data usage and network comes back a few seconds later. Please somebody MUST know how to fix this.
HTC desire Z ICS MMS problems.
Hello guys,
Since there was already a thread close to the problem i have i thought i'd put my post here.
I have been working on this problem for quite some time, the issue at hand is sending and recieving MMS's.
Before you ask, i am sure i am using the correct APN settings, my girlfriend has the same mobile and carrier (only difference is she is using 2.3)
I also have data enabled, and functioning without issues.
I have tried a combined APN setting for MMS and data, and i have tried them split.
I have also tried variants of the APN settings with ones included from a APN reset, ie port 9201 instead of port 8080, all without any luck.
I have tried upgrading my radio, i am currently using the latest radio for my phone.
My apn settings:
Code:
Name: Telenor DK
APN: Internet
MMSC: http_:_/_/_mms.telenor.dk (i have under 10 posts so cant post links, i have added "_"'s to go around this.)
MMS proxy: 212.88.64.8
MMS port: 8080
MCC: 238
MNC: 02
APN type: default,supl,mms
Sending MMS's it just hangs, trying to send it all the time, which never happens.
Recieveing an MMS i am unable to download the image.
I have tried tons of ICS roms for this phone, but without any luck, i was hoping someone could point me in the right direction, so i can get this issue resolved.
One rom i tried was the MIUI ICS build (unofficial), where i could send my SMS, however since the rom was too unstable i am unable to use it.
(i can have the phone on for max 5 mins and it reboots).
I have also tried Jelly bean, with the same bad luck (and camera broken).
I know i can downgrade to 2.3 to get MMS functioning, however i would like to use a more recent rom.
If you have a suggestion of maybe another rom i should try, i am all in for it.
Thanks in advance

I confirm. I'm on CM10 [bulid 124] to and I can't sent and recive mms to, but on rom with sense this issue does not occur. I trying modify my APN but without satisfactory results. Maybe in next build or beta version of this rom @flinny (or somebody else) can fix this if they can.

In Aroma installer don't select APM. This function is broken. You can instal APM when you flash this rom second time with dalvik and cache wipe.

i got it installed, however mms did not work. i have changed to .19 radio like everyone suggests, but same result.
tried multiple apn settings as well.
reverting back to mimicry again, if it had worked i could live with the sense ui, but without it working its not worth it.

[TING] Flashable Zip - Fixed LTE/eHRPD for CyanogenMod

**EDIT** Unless you're running an older version of CM, use the version 3 zip.
I just wanted to share this in case it helps anyone else with a GNex on Ting service.
I noticed the stock Google 4.2.1 rom on my GNex connected fine to eHRPD and LTE, but when I flashed CM10.1 I could only get EVDO. So I used an APN backup utility to get the proper APN settings from stock, tweaked them to work with CM, and created a recovery-flashable zip file.
These APNs fixed both LTE and eHRPD for me. It also sets the Ting MMS URL.
The zip file is attached to this post. Flash it over an already-installed CM rom, and again any time after you flash a rom update. I don't know if these APNs will work for other LTE devices on Ting besides the Galaxy Nexus, but I suspect they will.
Uninstall is as simple as re-flashing your CM rom, or restoring your original "/system/etc/apns-conf.xml" file with a root file explorer app (if you saved a backup before flashing this).
Another thing I did was set eHRPD to "On" under *#*#3282#*#* -> Edit -> Others/More, though I'm not sure how much difference it makes.
**EDIT**
The zip here:
https://help.ting.com/entries/423580...d-4-4-Kit-Kat-
... fixed my 3g issues in the latest CM11 nightlies. He's got some extra lines for bare CDMA (non-LTE/eHRPD).
New version for Android 4.3. Credit to @poo706 for figuring out the new APN version number change. Very little testing on this but seems to work for me. YMMV!

[ROM][4.4.2][LG G3 Port][6-29-2014]2FacedRom 1.6/1.7.1x Stock, Debloated, US GSM Unlocked
Please read everything before downloading and blindly installing!​
Firstly, this ROM does install properly, it does boot, if you brick your phone while running this ROM chances are it was something YOU did and not the ROM, do not blame me. Secondly, I will keep this as up to date and fix things or add things as often as I can there is a Requested Features tab at the top and if you want something you need to say it there. There is also a Report Bugs tab at the top, same applies. I am the only person maintaining this project right now and I cannot read every post in this thread but I will do my best to stay on top of everything.
The rom is a port from the UK LG G3 but options for GSM or CDMA capabilities are select-able in Aroma. NFC does not work currently and may not work until the LS990 is released and dumped.
The CDMA configurations is still buggy and I am working on fixing it, update 1.7 will see a lot of fixes to the CDMA configuration. The phone app crashes when trying to call out but the phone can receive calls when CDMA is selected on install. Thats the biggest problem I've found so far.
v1.6

Data does work but you cannot Enable/Disable it in settings or change network settings.
The phone will show "Roaming" but it won't actually be roaming.
Since this is experimental and for CDMA ONLY, only install with a clean flash.
Do not install if you are on a GSM network, for GSM stay with 1.6
To Install if coming from other ROM or 2Faced 1.0
1. Must be coming from ZVC Rom

7. PLEASE allow rom to settle for 10-15 minutes then restart before doing anything.
To Install if coming from 1.5x(Dirty Flash is possible):
Make a backup
Install using custom recovery
Select which apps you may want removed in Aroma
Select CDMA or GSM configuration
Rom will format the System partition and install updated version but you will not lose any account data or apps you have installed

Hi
Does it work with RUIMs ? Can you please test with any CDMA provider like Reliance , TATA , BSNL or MTS . I am interested in RUIM functionality in SIM slot and not interested in NV mode .

I don't have any way of testing with any of those providers but I am working on getting it to work with US CDMA Carriers, I'll do some research into your question and see if it can be put into the ROM. So far I havn't seen much outside of device limitation that cannot be achieved with Android and Custom Roms

I will most likely include a "fatter/bloated" version in my update, I do miss having Quick Memo as well as a few other niceties from a completely stock ROM. But as for now I haven't seen any flashable zip or .apk file to install for individual LG Apps. Depending on work over the next few days I should have an updated version with all of the stock LG Apps. I'm looking into using Aroma and allowing users to pick what they want on install.

Removable user identity module/subscriber identy module. Basically a new method to allow a CDMA (code division multiple access) phone use a gsm network. Our phone service is still CDMA, but 4g-lte is a GSM (global system for mobile) style network. So this format combines the two.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The RUIM card was designed to replicate many of the advantages of the Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card on the GSM network. Phones on the CDMA network that do not use RUIM cards store all of the user's information in the phone itself; if the user wants to change phones, he or she has to go to the cell phone service provider, who will transfer the information to the new handset. GSM network phones use SIM cards, which store all of the user's information, so activating a new phone is often as simple as moving the card from one handset to another.
CDMA phones that use RUIM cards share this ability to swap information between phones. The card is the same size and shape as a regular SIM card, and typically includes a version of the SIM software, which means that it can be used in GSM phones. As with switching cards between CDMA phones, however, the GSM handset must be unlocked for a RUIM card to work with it. An RUIM card in a GSM phone might not work in all locations, because different regions use different cell phone frequencies.

From what I've read, it really sounds like if you have a ROM which allows both CDMA and GSM communications you're really limited on the frequencies that the phone can use, the LG G2 uses these GSM 850/900/1800/1900 MHz, UMTS 2100* LTE CAT 3, HSPA+ 21 Mbps* EDGE, GPRS Class 10, UMTS, HSPA+, WCDMA, LTE Bands 25/26/41*. All listed frequency support is network/carrier specific. Roaming capability and network frequency support may not be available. If the carrier you wish to use the device with supports any of these then it should work to some extent, at least that's how it appears to me.

I have Sprint LS980 only . On ZV7 and ZV8 both RUIM/GSM SIM card work once you change the NV only mode in device . I asked as this functionality was disabled by Sprint in ZVC . The device already has the capability and I dont want to lose it by upgrading to Kitkat . The frequencies in GSM might not work in US in HSPA+ but works fine in other countries which have the Sprint LS980 frequencies for HSPA+ and LTE .
So when the user had commented that he had used it in GSM in India , thats why i requested him to put any RUIM and confirm whether RUIM functionality is disabled or not .

This is not a Sprint based ROM, it is T-Mobile GSM based, which is why it allows for GSM carriers to communicate with the device and it not be locked to Sprint CDMA.

White lines through screen.
After the phone goes to sleep and is woken up I get white and black lines through the screen. I have to hold the power button down to shut it off then restart the phone. But it seems to do it every time. Has anyone had a similar issue?

Yes, that means you need the modified kernel for your device. Most likely your device has the JDI panel and the kernel is built for the LGD panel.
Have you checked out this nifty tool which should patch your kernel and fix the white lines issue?

Shortly after posting I can across the jdi kernel and flashed it and all is working now. Thank you very much for the response and help.
I flashed the ROM but it won't boot ahead of LG Logo.
Seems it was a bad flash or bad download...
But, now I can't:
1. Flash TOT file of LS980 as it says incorrect model no
2. Can't boot to recovery thru key combinations.. Its really hit n miss n last time i could boot into recovery thru this combination on some other device was after 10-15 tries.
I can keep trying to boot to recovery n then restore my backup..
Before that, any other solution?
Edit... Was able to boot to recovery n then restore my ZVA backup..
What I actually did was, Flashed the rom on ZVA + flashed ZVC modem.
Was this the reason of not booting the rom? if so, do i need to be on ZVC only ??? No other way to go from ZV7/8/A?

yes it needs the ZVC Modem/Radio, there is a DLL file that will allow Flash Tools to ignore SW Version and flash it to an LG default. You can then reboot into download and flash anything else with the regular Sprint DLL if you ever get stuck again. I've used it many times, here it is.

Got it.. I am already downloading ZVC tot...
But, out of curiosity, I did flash ZVC radio along with your rom, still why didn't it allow?
Thanks for the DLL thing...

Yes! I have been waiting for this thread for quite some time.
Edit: I see the instructions and have begun downloading the files. There weren't any peers, so I went with the direct download. I'll update the tracker and seed once I have them in place.
Edit: Flawless victory!

I'll work on making a seedbox for the torrent.
Information
Let me know if there are any problems with the cellular signal.
So this sounds perfect, let me see if I've got this right - this can dirty flash over stock (but recovery installed) ls970zvc?
Where is the downloads section? Thanks!

Hey, did this ever happen? I haven't had any luck digging up this zip here or via google. Would very much like to upgrade stock rather than switch over to CM... thanks!

There is the download page for this rom.
And for the dirty flashing, I would rather make a clean wipe without clearing user data and then flashing rom.
The dirty flash may work but I have not tried it.
Thanks! Had to change my theme to see the downloads section.
Was able to flash the ROM but can't make any calls "not in service area". Any advice?

Strange, not seeing my posts here... sorry if they're duplicating. I was able to download and install this ROM. However I cannot make calls ("Not in Service Area") or send/receive text or sms messages. LTE data is working though much slower than it use to.
I also see "Network and USIM" errors browsing around settings. Any advice?
boot.img?
What is the boot.img good for? Does it overwrite the bootloader?
I can't find an APN Changer that works for me. I am ignorant on the topic, but I find some that will list APNs, and then that is all they do. I just want this phone to be able to hook to the Sprint network so I can give FreedomPop a try.
Everything else with the implementation worked smoothly.

t889 best modem for LTE?

I bought a fixer upper t889 off eBay, and I got it rooted using Odin, it came with 4.1.2 md1. I did a back up and installed octos 6.0.1 and my internet goes super slow now. Download speeds maxing out at 15kbs on LTE.
Questions.
Is the MD1 modem the best for the newer ROMs?
Would MB4 work or work better?
If your using octos 6.0.1 what modem are you using?
Anyone willing to make backups of there modem in twrp and share since all the links are dead?
I'm sorry if someone covered this already, like I said my internet is now 15kbs so it takes forever for anything to load.
***Update***
I'm on Walmart Family Mobile, the default APN is "web.omwtoday. com" mmsc "http://wirelessfour.mmsmvno .com/mms/wapenc"
APN type= default,MMS,supl
Ipv4
I did try a few APN settings listed on the forums, the one for T-Mobile us and the tracfone APN I get internet with all but its super slow, no matter if I select 2g/3g/ or lte
I updated to the mk7 modem and same issue 15k download speeds. I'll try the och4 modem next.
I don't recall which modem I have, but I used OctOS 6 for a while. I had differing speeds in differing locations, but nothing abysmal like that.
