Has anybody been able to successfully install an Xtresolite rom for this phone? I've tried a few times but the radio never works (won't connect to sprint network).
My latest try was using this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-xtrestolite-pure-edition-1-0-beta-1-t3082467 and using this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-galaxy-s6/development/kernel-unikernel-v5-t3166295
With this combination the touch screen works but the network doesn't.
Anybody have any success or suggestions?
Thanks!

I'm really surprised by how little activity there is in the Sprint S6 forums. I previously had an S3 and that forum was hopping! And still is!

On my Sprint Galaxy Nexus when I first got it the stock wifi tethering setting worked on my stock ICS. Later on I found that it just doesn't work anymore. It will activate and appear to be working and let my laptop connect but the 3G will go away like they have some kind of built in checker.
I did some research and found out that they might have a checking system set up. Well I found out you can still use apps like Foxfi which is great but I was just wondering if there was a stock work around.
They even blocked Foxfi from the market place but you can go to there main site and download it from there.
I was just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this and what kind of solutions do they use.
Right now I am using Foxfi which works perfect but I read that you can use a widget like switch pro and create a toggle to switch the portable wifi hot spot without it going through the check.
I do not want to use USB only prefer hot spot.
So please let me know all of your guys types of solutions.

Well obviously the wifi tether built in is something your supposed to pay for. For stock no, there are no mods.

I thought it was just weird because it worked at first but now it doesn't the stock version. Maybe because my phone was just still getting set up. Foxfi works for me great because I like to have hot spot but I hear PDA Net still works as well for USB Tethering.

Does your Sprint tether work or do you have to use FoxFi?

Just root it and tether it up

It probably worked because they hadn't yet blocked it for you. Then you tried to use it and they did block it.

Have you tried this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1658288
I unlocked the bootloader, booted to TWRP Recovery without flashing it and flashed the tether zip. Keeps your phone stock and unlocks the built in tether. You don't even have to root.
What program do you use to unlock the boot loader or flash the roms?

How in the world did you boot into TWRP without flashing it? That might not be rooted but seems like you have to flash a rom.

Do what everyone else does....
Root it (you really need to to install any decent app).
Install wireless tether from http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
Always install the newest one posted (yes it's beta, but it's rock solid stable).
Which program do you use to flash things? Qdl tool or is that old school? I know there is a power house program for the Nexus but I forgot what it is its on my home computer am I out of town.
So you are saying you have to at least flash the recovery but not the from so its still a little more than FoxFi.
What's a quick step by step process because its been a while since I have flashed things. I use to flash my dell streak all the time until I got my Nexus which I love.
Why did you decide to flash? Is not FoxFi good enough and simple enough?

What other programs do you really need to install besides the tethering app?

You just have to be rooted and then install wireless tether.
It will prompt you to allow super user access on first start, allow it and tick the "always allow this action" box.
It's bomb proof....been using it for years on numerous different phones....and numerous different carriers (sprint included).
clockworkmod tether is another no root required tether app.

I use Chrome browser on my laptop, and change the user agent to the same as the phone (there's a Chrome app). No problems tethering...
Is that USB or Hot Spot?

Looks like FoxFi is still the easiest solution.

You can root your phone and then install wifi tether. Thus is what I did...

Ok this is similar to an issue I.am having. Well not really an issue but a question will flashing my carriers csc file I got from the jedi rom forum. Interfere with our negate any of the features of the sky note room I currently have running on my phone. The only reason I wanna flash it is because my bell mobile tv app will not.work without. At least it seems that way because it does not recognize my device correctly.

You could make a backup and try editing your build.prop. That usually works. If i remember correctly you need to edit the following lines.
ro.product.model=SGH-I317M
ro.product.name=t0ltevl
ro.product.device=t0ltecan
This worked for many running custom roms on the S3. Remember, make a nandroid backup first just in case. These lines taken right off the stock rom on my phone with mobile tv working.
Out if every ROM I've used wicked ROM has been my most enjoyable for this phone because it gives you all the features and it was very fast. There was only one issue it had and that is why I'm making this thread because I would like to start using that ROM again. The problem it had is wheneveri would be on the phone, it'd lose service and 4g but I'd still be able to talk to the person on the phone however I would not be able to receive text and browse web while talking.. Has anyone else experienced this issue and how can I fix it? I really loved that Rom because it had all the features and emoji's. It was like being on 4.4...I also loved aroma installer soplease help! I tried wicked ROM v10 v9 and v7... Same issue on all!

I have successfully rooted my SM-N900T Note 3 and have installed CM11/OnePlus One ROM and it's awesome. The problem I'm having is having a solid LTE connection. Before all of the rooting, my network was perfect. Now when I make a call, it throws my connection into "H" signal and it makes my call quality bad.
Any suggestions or fixes to this? Anyone is welcome.
P.S: I've tried manually setting up a T-Mobile APN and it's done nothing, so that's out of the question.

CyanogenMod doesn't support VoLTE yet. So when you place a call it drops to H...nothing you can do about it besides go back to stock rom.
Thank you for your info on it. I think there's a fix for it though. I have 3 updates for CM, but it won't let me update and tells me update has been aborted. I may have to manually install the update.

I have a note 3 and a oneplus one. The latest cm roms for the OPO, including the under development lollipop cm12, does not have VoLTE.
I figured. Lol. I'll just deal with it.

Hi,
You need to ask for help in the thread you downloaded the rom from.
Good luck!
Darth.. This has been a persistent problem that happens after every flash of a rom. I dunno what happened to my Bluetooth or WiFi but they never turn on. I even downloaded the same version of carbon ROM my friend had and his worked yet mine did not and I'm wondering why

I will have your thread moved to your device section so the experts who own your device can help.
If it were me, I'd flash stock 4.1.2 with Odin and see if its the same. If it is, sure could be a hardware issue.
Good luck!
Appreciate ya. That is a start. I can't use odin though because I do not have computer access at the moment. All solutions need to come from my phone

You may need to find a computer to use, or you could be out of luck until you try stock...
