I have the Korean s3 , I have made it connect to the Spark network here in New Zealand but I cant make any calls from it, I can use data and send SMS but not voice calls, is there anything I can do?
I got it working on the network by going into the hidden menu.
This is the HTC one m8 thread, so go to the s3 thread please
sorry, I thought I was in the galaxy s 3 area.
Wrong forum, thread closed.

hi! i am new here. i would like to ask a few questions regarding my samsung galaxy note 2 shv-e250L. pardon if some of the questions have been asked before, it is just i am new and i would prefer to make a new post so my questions would be specifically answered on this post. hopefully, you would all be kind enough to answer my queries. i would be very thankful.
anyway, here goes:
i have opened the hidden menu of the phone and it led me to this- please look at the following:
network setting/1. network mode
automatic
wcdma 1900
wcdma 2100
wcdma all
gsm 900
gsm 1800
gsm 1900
gsm all
lte b5
lte b1
lte all
since shv-e250L has the 850 and 2100 bands as mentioned in wikipedia , so i will only be able to use an lte capable smart sim which is being offered to prepaid subscribers. however, my questions regarding this screenshot are these:
a. what if i won't choose the automatic preference and change it to any of the choices, will it affect my lte signal?( that is if i am going to use the smart lte sim)
b. what do those lte b1, lte b5, lte all signify?
c. what does wdcma and gsm mean? what do they pertain to?
d. if i change any the choice from automatic to any of those, will it affect my text and call? or just the internet on my phone?
please look at this too. the following are:
lguhiddenmenu
1. ims volte settings
2. ims volte sip reg
3. ims volte error table
4. ims volte roaming setting
a. what does volte mean?
b. can i change any of the settings here?
c. will it affect the text,call, internet of the phone if i change any of the settings?
for example, look at the following:
volte setting/1. ims volte settings
lte/3g server dns is pcscf1.lteims.co.kr
wfi server dns is wifi.lteims.co.kr
server ip is 10.113.13.75
server ip2 is this allows you to enter a string
server ip3 is this allows you to enter a string
lte/3g-dns or ip(1=dns) is 1
wifi-dns or ip(1=dns) is 1
pco is 1
server domain is lte-lguplus.co.kr
lte/3g server port is 5060
a. can i change anything above?
b. these addresses pertain to korea, can i change these and will it affect the call,text, internet on the phone?
c. or should i just leave it?
i have been reading some posts about flashing shv-e250 models with different roms. i do not know anything about flashing or rooting because i have not tried it ever on my phone. so far on some posts, some users like the rom n7105 for the note 2. i would like to ask some questions about this.
1. if i flash my phone with the n7105 rom and install the kernel appropriate for the shv-e250L, will there be changes on the phone? can you give examples? will there be functionality of the phone missing like vibration, or etc? most of all, will the phone lag?
2. follow up to number 1, i want my phone to stay the same actually,that is with the same functionalities with the shv- e250L and i am contented with it but i just want to make the sms character count to 160 just like the regular phones(i tried handcent, sms pro, but sometimes they won' t even send more than 160, it is inconvenient); remove those korean apps because i won't be able to use them anyway; everything in english since i do not know korean; be able to see my phone number and the network provider in the settings. that is all. as for the rest, i want everything to stay the same. is the n7105 rom capable of these things and still have all the functionalities of the shv-e250 L?
3. what does kernel mean and what will it do to the phone ? in this case, changing the kernel to the kernel provided in this site for korean note 2s.
4. in wikipedia, samsung note 2 n7105 has bands 800,1800,2600. if i flash the phone with n7105 rom, will it have these bandwiths too? or the bandwidths of the shv-e250L will still remain even after flashing with n7105?
5. if ever there is a new update for the shv-e250L, how will i update since the rom is already n7105? or should i update using the n7105?
6. if i decide to change back to shv-e250L, how will i do that?
7. last question, i have kies on my computer, and downloaded some apps for the note 2. the shv-e250L is not recognized by the samsung appstore ph. is it because it is a korean phone ?? i tried switching to samsung appstore korea but the language i do not understand. if i flash it with n7105, will it be recognized by the samsung appstore ph as n7105? or what country- samsung appstore us or what particular country i mean? and will i be able to download apps now from the kies on the computer.
p.s. there are times when i do not use internet on the phone and since the computer at my house has internet, just dsl not wifi, so i use that in case someone will wonder why i just don't download using the internet on my phone.
this is all for now. thank you so much. for those who are going to answer and render patience, thank you.
pardon moderators if i made a mistake in any way regarding posting.
have a great day everyone!
any one? help please
You waited 10 hours to ask why no one had followed up? Patience is a virtue my friend.
You can pay with those settings if you want, but there is also a good chance you might break your phone. The menu's hidden for a reason, you aren't going to be able to activate lots of amazing features.
The answers to almost every question you've asked are to be found in these forums already. Spend a bit of time reading and searching.

EXACTLY.. plus am I correct in saying that the op will only get an LTE signal if its carrier supported. In which case if you leave it on auto in the settings he will get the best signal at present with the present carrier hes with... ps I wouldnt mess with any of those settings unless your completely 100% sure of what your doing..
Also as this is a question and query it should of been posted in Q and A section.

Hello,
I have searched throughly for my questions but didn't find anything unfortunately...
Will the tab 3 SM-T217S be able to make calls? I am talking regular calls not using apps that use data.
I live in a country where there is CDMA network provider and heard that there is no dialer on this tab which is important for me to programme the tab into my country's CDMA network provider.
I also came across a forum where it said the call functionality is there in the tab 3 but sprint has blocked it because the will only give you a plan with data not voice, so does that mean that if the SM-T217S gets programmed to another CDMA provider the call functionality can work normally??
I appreciate any help guys and thanks in advance!

Hey, i was about to purchase this to flash to IUSACELL Mexico, but instead went with the ATT version with SIM card because i have a better data plan with GSM provider than CDMA provider.
But i did some research prior going with the gsm tablet, and it appears you can flash it with DFS cdma soft, and of course if the new plan has DATA/VOICE it should work like a phone and sms and all that, providing you download a dialer and use an external hands free headset (i dont think it has a speaker like the GT3 8").
You wont find much information, all has to be done with trial and error.
Hey guys! I recently bought a G3. It's a Korean Variant LG-F400L from U+. My problem with this phone is that when set to "Global" mode (GSM/WCDMA/LTE) it connects to LTE but says "Not in Service Area" whenever I try to make a call so I don't get the normal call and text services but when I set my network mode to (WCDMA Only) I get the call and text service but no LTE only 3G. So maybe Global mode prioritizes GSM? I don't know.
If I do LTE only mode, I can receive texts I believe but I can't make phone calls. I know it is not a problem with my network, as I have a Galaxy Note 3 and LTE + Calls work fine on my Note 3. Yet this G3 will only do one or the other. There is no option from WCDMA + LTE only.
IF anyone has any ideas, I would love to hear it. I'm also wondering if changing the rom would help this issue.
I should also mention that I am on another provider (SK Telecom) while my phone is a unlocked U+ phone!

Hi! I guess you're in Korea? Have you tried another sim card? Is this a new phone or did you purchase it second hand?
EDIT : It sounds like a network problem.. The phone hasn't been registered correctly.
Did you make sure you have the right APN settings?
So I actually changed my mobile provider to u+ because I was off contract and my phone was able to get VoLte and LTE. So maybe the issue was the phone defaulting to VoLte? I have no idea how to turn it off on this F400L model. I've tried most of the methods I think. Any ideas how to turn it off? Either way I guess it's a little bit solved now that I can call again.
I am having the same problem
Hello Metsuna
Can you tell me how you solved the problem, I am having the same problem and cant connect to internet. Can;t make or receive any calls.
Thanks
I am new so forgive me if im posting in the wrong place.
Heres my need....i busted my S5, so I took my sim card out & placed it in my Galaxy tab 3, hoping to use it as my phone until I can replace my S5. I rooted the tab successfully using instructions on this forum. Now how do i unlock the calling feature so i can receive & make calls using my at&t cell service, not wifi app?
I have seen post about international firmware,but all the download links are dead.
My tablet is activated & running 4.4.2, i do not have a stock phone icon/app & only dial pad is hangouts.
Please help im desperate & been phoneless for almost 2 weeks.
I'm sorry to have to be the one to tell you this but as far as I remember the ATT modem is Data only, you can get text messages by installing GOSms (i think that's the only one I've gotten texts working with) but no calls, the default dialer app that's hidden only allows to send codes and wont allow you to place or receive calls, I've tried replacing it with another dialer from a different rom and didnt have any luck
