I bought and rooted my Galaxy S3 a few months ago. since then I have flashed several roms. When the jellybean update came along I flashed a stock rom so I could update to stock jellybean, after the update to jellybean i noticed that my phone signal kept cutting out. The meter would cycle from full bars down to no bars then back up again over and over. while this was happening I could not make or receive calls. Tuns out the problem is caused by the IMEI reading 0. I don't know when this actually happened weather before or after the update. I have been trying to figure out how to fix this, but I don't understand what little I have found on the internet. Can anyone help me?

Thanks for the link but I dont understand what they are talking about.
like: "Put phone into RMNET + DM + MODEM mode"
I have no idea what that is.
and this section: "Look in device manager under ports and serials you should see your phone there.
Now open QPST Configuration click on ports tab and then on Add new port button type in COM## where ## is the port number your phone is connected to."
Is this even english? I'm sorry but i'm a newbie and have no idea what im doing.

You are putting your phone into RMNET + DM + MODEM mode by using the Stock Dialer on a Stock ROM and entering the service code provided in the thread (*#7284#).
There are some good videos on YouTube of how to fix this and how make a back up in case it happens again. It a lot easier than it sounds.
Thanks

What's funny is my IMEI decided to implode itself after I flashed the 1/15 Cm build.. Fixed it and everything is up and running now, just never thought it would happen to me. The only thing I can think of for why this happened to me, was because I had just switched back to CWR from TWRP.. not sure if there is a connect, but seems plausible. Back to TWRP now.
Hi all,
I tried to setup on-screen phone (OSP) on the G3 but it didn't work.
Installed all drivers and having a connection with LG PC Suite with no problem as well. But on-screen phone doesn't find my G3 (D855).
In another forum I found out that also the menu entry for on-screen phone is gone which was available on the G2.
I also contacted LG support in my country because of this. They even called me twice and said that they have to check for themselves if this is not supported anymore and they want to get back to me with further information.
For me this is a killer feature and one of the main reasons I switched from Samsung to LG. I cannot be that this is supported on older LG phones but on their flagship device not anymore....
That would be another giant step back for the step backward thread here...
If this is really true is there a way to port this feature from the G2 to the G3?
Have a great day.
Cheers,
JJ
Look around. I remember reading through a thread where somebody provided a solution to activate this feature.

It worked for my 851(T-Mobile G3), thanks!
Has anyone been able to get this working on the Sprint version of the G3?
I've tried countless times (just tried again) and made sure I followed the steps precisely, but to no avail.
OSP (nor does LG PC Suite) still does not recognize my phone, yet my PC recognizes my G3, allowing me transfer files.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help

My wife's phone is downloading a114mb update right now. I was just messing around and was surprised to see something start downloading.
Edit - Looks like some new bloat called Lookout was installed. Unless that was always on here. It's a system app so all I can do is disable it.
Lookout was on mine when purchased Saturday (12/6). Is there an update log?

Hey guys we need somebody to download the update on their phone and upload it. Just DO NOT install it yet because the file will be deleted once you do. I think it's stored in a security or cache folder somewhere, I forget exactly.

Honestly I haven't read the changelog feature update list from Samsung or Sprint but I can say that it may bring some hidden suprises.... and not the good kind. I could be wrong but if you're like many people here at XDA, you might want to hold off until more information is available from somebody who can give more details on what this OTA contains and how it will effect our phones. These days carriers are getting more and more sneaky.
I have update ready also. So going to backup. I have fake system status enabled. Im on echo rom. When I get home this evening Im going to try to download and install on to0 of echo rom. Is this a good idea? Or should I flash stock firmware take update and hopefully reroot ect.

114mb its a small update. The connection issues this phone has im at the point of not caring if It breaks root permanently. Has anyone taken update and rerooted? Three blocks from a tower and struggles to hold lte.

This update is to enable the phone to work with the Gear VR device and download oculus software
Avatar installed after update
It installed Avatar in voice mail.. (animated voice mail.. seriously !!!)
Reduced RAM usage.. previously it was around 2.3-2.5/2.7 gb now it always under 2 gigs like .. 1.7/2.7 .. yeh..

Sprint Update
Hopefully this fixes the Wi-Fi issues, and adds more good stuff.
Looks like an stability update that Verizon T-Mobile n att have
Sent from my SM-N910P using XDA Premium HD app
I installed the update and it did nothing in the way of fixing the slow LTE/SPARK speeds. So it was a useless update to me. I have anew N4 arriving tomorrow from Sprint, maybe Ill be one of the lucky ones and get one that does not have the slow issue. Seems a handful of models out there don't have the slow data speeds. I wish they would address this issue before other lower priority issues.
So far this isn't available through Kies. I'm new to using Kies, should I expect it to become available any time soon? (because my phone is rooted it won't even check for OTA updates.)
Seems to fix all the lag problems I was having. But I already ordered a replacement. ?
Does anyone know how?

Hey guys, so I want to know what the best custom rom is for E988. I am currently rooted and using stock rom. However, I wanted to upgrade to Marshmellow but it wasn't available. So now I want 5.1.1
I know there's CM12.1 but i'm not sure about its features.
These are the features I wanted.
* LG remote
* The LED for notifications
* LG's old lockscreen
* LG keyboard(if applicable) or better.
*Talk to people with aux cable plugged in when has no mic. (I can currently do this with Aux and all headphones with no built in mic)
* WORKING BLUETOOTH & Wifi 100% bugfree
That's basically it. I just love its features.
Thanks lads, I really felt like I needed to upgrade the version as I rooted my bros S4 to 6.0 and its so good. Since there isn't a noticeable difference between 6 and 5.1.1 IDM.
I believe blisspop will work on the e988, considering its basically the same thing as an e980. With that being said it's fantastic. Nearly bug free, and nothing major withstanding the fact that we won't get LGs Quick remote beyond kitkat. That issue is because we don't have any proper drivers for the IR blaster beyond kitkat. Also if I were you I'd forget most lg stuff and just use blisspop or cm. Stock lockscreen is really nice, and clean. SwiftKey is the best keyboard so I would advise it regardless of what rom you want to use. Everything else just works. Again I believe blisspop will work on the e988, but just check to make sure. If nothing else try cm. Just remember beyond kitkat our devices(e98x) will not be getting Quick Remote so you have to decide if you are OK with that before moving your phone to Lollipop or even marshmallow(in the event we actually get it).

ALSO ONE LAST THING. Does it have a message feature like LG's?
Like when u get a message it pops up top left.
Exactly what features do you mean? As far as I know lg has no special messaging features that aren't present in AOSP. Additionally I'd advise the use of Signal regardless of what rom(including stock) for all your text messages.

Don't worry about it dude, buying a new phone.
What happened was TWRMP wasn't compatible with this device. The idiot who ported it forgot to change the permissions for this specific device. Whatever I try to install in a .zip doesn't work.
I managed to get into recovery but since it doesn't install anything. LIterally a waste. It doesn't even install the modem.zip file. always "ERROR" when its not.
