Hi Guys
I bought the galaxy s6 G920P used from eBay and have ran into troubles after rooting it.
See my other thread which i accidentally posted in General Q&A, May be i can get some better answers here..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help/help-samsung-g920p-root-t3289569
So basically now I have a device thats running stock rooted ROM, but I Cant get 4g to work. I have made sure the APN settings are correct from my provider. Also after a restart, the device takes about 2-3 minutes to pick up any cell signal.
My main question is that when I got my device it was not rooted, and everything was working fine ( I did not have to manually enter my career's APN settings and I had 4g data). Also there was no traces about the "sprint" on my device, no splash screen or anything.
Anyone has any idea which ROM the device could originally be on? Is there any stock non-sprint version of android 5.1.1 for G920P?
Thanks in advance and sorry about the noob questions ( Biggest mistake is I should have made a backup of original ROM)
No one ?

How did you root it? Also, you may need to unlock it.
Make sure to check your carriers bands with the ones the phone supports:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
You should beable to find the support bands on your carriers website, you may also be able to call a store.
I have this phone from Sprint and of course there is always the splash screen and the annoying sprint apps. If this screen wasn't there if may have been a custom ROM although you would have seen the red text about the system when booting. Although it wasn't really possible in the past (due to CDMA and carrier locks), it is possible with the s6 to bring this device from other US carriers to sprint (http://www.sprint.com/landings/bring-your-own-phone/). I am not sure if you are basing the model based on the fact that it said Sprint or if you are certain that was the actual model (I believe the model number is also sometimes changes by some ROMs).
From my understanding you now have the stock sprint ROM with the sprint screen and annoying apps? I don't believe there is a "Stock" version for this model. U.S. carriers love to put their annoying junk on phones and generally have plans to lease or pay extra per month to subsidize the cost of the phone.
You could check this thread out and maybe it would help:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...de-success-sim-unlock-sprint-samsung-t3130294
If not maybe trying another ROM would be a good option especially since you are outside of the U.S. You may even be able to use this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...xtrestolite-deodexed-mod-edition-1-0-t3094423 since you don't need sprint radio support (this is a risk since the model is not officially supported, but may be worthwhile).

Ok, forgive me ahead of time for anything I've overlooked, but I need a point in the right direction at the very least. I have rooted and flashed multiple ROMs to my N900t , applied countless tweaks, and tested 100s of Xposed modules. The device used to work on the t-mobile network, but I switched to a N910a to use as my main device. During that time I continued to flash, wipe, and repeat trying to learn how android works. I lost the note 4, and when I went to put my new Sim into the note 3, I could not register on the mobile network. I full wiped, went back to full stock nk3, Uninstalled Xposed framework, tried to figure out what the problem is, but I am stuck and have no idea which way to go. I want to get my device working on the network ASAP but at this point, I'm stumped as to what the problem is, let alone the solution. I'm guessing the solution lies in the hidden service menus, but I really don't want to mess things up anymore. I have no problem donating what I can for the help and time. I really want to learn android programming and development, and more than anything I'd like to be able to use the service and device that I have paid for. I've attached screenshots, and I can provide more information to anyone willing to help. Thanks to anyone and everyone who takes the time help.
Device info: SM-N900t, Knox warranty void: 0x1, CSC: TMB ENK3, bootloader pda and baseband: N900TUVUENK3, kernel: 3.4.0- 2587359, rooted, supersu and busy box installed.

Hi guys, I am in Pakistan. I am trying to use my Note3 on several networks but every sim give me error "Not registered on Network". I am able to use data services on every Sim but not calls and SMS.
I rooted my device, installed couple of custom Roms but nothing worked.
Is there any Radio or kernal which can solve my problem? Thanks in advance
I know it is to late.....Espacially the latest OTA N920AUCU3CPHA has been released...
But people outside US can flash this firmwork and use OTA package to keep ATT Note5 at latest model...
Mega: https://mega.nz/#!oFIRXJ6J!A9iUa8eyHEvwPrD531ECmjLobeC_d7YOVaRTChN0gNE
PS: As you all know,Chinese offical limits my network to connecting XDA, so I coundn't answer your question immediately. What more, all of my full odin packages are downloaded at http://romup.com/ ,but it is not for free. Everybody can search ROMs by phone model in the searching box(with VPN to China).
The method can consult http://forum.xda-developers.com/att.../n920a-mm-odin-package-n920aucu2bpe6-t3415938 , Odin up on 3.12.4. And this firmwork don't Contain Pit files. Just flash first four files and waiting five minutes...

Hi, can i update from an unlocked AT&T N920AUCU2APB2 directly to this using Odin? Will that cause any issues?
hey guys, not trying to hijack the thread but i have a USCellular Note 5 which is unlocked and everything works but MMS and 4G is flakey, usually bouncing between 4G and H and H+ (on the signal)
i dont feel data speeds suffer but speed tests show it so fear signal reception could be different that an AT&T note 5.
anyways, does anyone know if it is possible to odin flash this rom into my USCellular phone and make it run properly on AT&T.
the NOTE 5 is of course unlocked and when looked at the specs is only missing 2 cellular bands and has more bands in 3G than the AT&T variant.
anyone have a clue, i would not like to brick this phone beyond repair but am willing to flash it with an AT&T rom if that will fix it.
the APN's area ll correct, but i did install KIK messaging and when setting MMS to manual APN it immediately came up with a uscellular APN which really makes me believe somewhere in the phone its still holding a USCellular APN and not using the AT&T one even though it is set in the Network settings of the phone.
My Z2 force software channel is Sprint, sim of all carriers work. It doesn't have any sprint bloatware . It is stuck on Android 7.1.1 with Sep, 2017 security patch. Upon checking for update it says its up to date. I just want to update my android to latest version (stock rom only) with the latest security patch released. Would appreciate if someone could provide me the rom and update and also give some guidance. My bootloader is unlocked.

Just use Lenovo Moto Smart Assistant, guy (of course Motorola and Google driver installed). It's the easiest method to get newest Oreo.
Or go to Development or Guide thread and search the firmware for Sprint variant.

Ok, since LMSA didn't support my device for flashing, I'll be flashing the rom myself.
Would highly appreciate if you could just answer these questions.
1) What happens if use a sprint rom for a differnt SKU (not for XT1789-03)
2) Will I get sprint bloatware with the rom update. (Currently, I have none)
3) Currently I am using my country's sim/carrier. Will this update lock my sim to sprint or create network problems?
1. It can cause problems or not. This depends on variant or ROM: Sprint single sim can be flashed the Retail dual sim ROM (with bootloader unlocked); you may flash a Verizon (or ATT) ROM to your unlocked bootloader Retail one but you can not do versa.
2. Variant stock fw will have some bloatwares (more or less). Retail seems having no bloatware. I dont know about other variant (T-mobile, US cellular...).
3. If your phone is carrier unlocked one (like my ATT), flashing fw causes no problem. I have heard someone had some issues one 4G or else, but my Sprint one (the dead one) had no problem.
Good luck!
i have the same problem with my sprint z2 force model XT1789-03 and i want to update my phone
let me know please if you find any solution without causing device any problem

I successfully updated to stock android 8.0(retail version) with zero issues. I followed this guide's Part E
https://forum.xda-developers.com/z2-force/how-to/guides-bootloader-twrp-custom-roms-root-t3805737
You can either go for sprint stock ROM or Retail ROM.
Do i have to unlock my bootloader and do i need to root my mobile?
Hello everyone,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra (SM-G988U) from Verizon Wireless. I am not from the US, I got the phone from a guy who bought in the US.
I am currently in Romania using Vodafone SIM card (Idk if this is relevant but thought I should give as much info as possible).
The thing is, no dialer code works, *#06# for IMEI code, *#0*#, *#*#88#*#* and all the other ones. It either says invalid code or something like that or "UNKNOWN APPLICATION".
I am running original unrooted firmware Android 11 One UI 3.0 (G988USQU1CTL4).
Is there anything I can do to solve this? And is there a way to get rid of the Verizon stuff without rooting? (like changing CSC or something I don't know I'm not all that knowledgeable regarding this stuff, I just read the stuff posted on the forums)

Not sure if it will work. But try downloading the Google Phone Dialer and see if they work in that app.
I get the same errors with the Google Phone app too.
Codes won't work if the BL is unlocked or rooted.
Happened on my old S9
At least read the whole post before replying , I am running completely original unrooted software. Didn't touch a thing on it.
Didn't mean to make it sound passive aggressive, just frustrated with the whole thing.

perhaps the previous owner rooted the phone before.. try to enter download mode to see if it was rooted before.
Is it just me or is this by design? Very weird

Where is it reporting as SD1A.210817.015.A4? In Settings/About? Any other details such as what country you're in and what carrier you're using? Anything else you can tell us - are you rooted or applied OTA or factory image manually?

Are you using a custom kernel?
Can you check the hash of the full .017 firmware zip you downloaded and compare it to the hash shown on the website? (I check it after every time I download a full image zip, or an OTA zip)
minus case insens they match
BF3DA4B26554D84F99EAAD9837330C7D757F7D31442397EF89A98307D169D96A
bf3da4b26554d84f99eaad9837330c7d757f7d31442397ef89a98307d169d96a
no custom kernel
curious to know which is the one to apply for google FI or t-mobile or ATT (you'd think i'd know this working for TMO

It was always my impression to use the one that makes sense for the region and carrier you use, i.e. US Carrier, but at least one knowledgeable person in the P6P section said the A1 is the correct one. I haven't had problems with the US Carrier one on AT&T (.017). My wife's phone isn't rooted and she hasn't gotten the December OTA. I mainly leave well enough alone on her phones since some things I've done on all her old phones (which is always the same phone as what I have, to make it easier for me to give her tech support) have given her unwanted surprises.
Oh yeah - you could always try the Official Google Android Flash Tool and see if you get any different results.
so is the 16.a1 correct or 17 for us carriers?

I don't have any better answer than my reply #12. Since the .017 says "US Carriers" on the page with the list of firmware, that's the one I use.
