Anyone have a copy of the Telus boot screen image? I flashed one of Ryan's ROMs and deleted the connection data and then used the Telus carrier cab but the boot screen is still Verizon.

Hey all,
I bought a locked to Rogers Network SGS4 1337M. I am a Bell customer, so I had the phone unlocked. The phone for some reason shows some Telus icons.
More bothersome, the wi-fi no longer works on the phone and gets stuck on "turning on". I tried factory reset etc...all to no avail.
I have decided to install Odin and flash an older version of android onto the phone as I heard this fixed the issue for some people. I have a few questions...
1) Can I flash a stock Bell mobility rom onto the phone even though it was once Rogers? (phone is now unlocked)
2) The phone came with 4.3, can I still downgrade? (I don't know if the other person upgraded it or not)
3) If I flash the Bell rom, will it re-lock the phone?
Thanks!!
I had an issue with Alliance rom. It went from wifi to 4g and I lost the prl and other stuff (said unknown). I only had wifi.
I was able to Odin back to stock. It took like three times as it would not move past the activation screen.
Now, on stock, I flashed TWRP recovering using ODIN, then used the CF root from Odin also. Phone restarted and while I have the 4g logo, I have no phone and the information is missing again (PRL). I do get wifi.
I just used Odin to reflash stock and it is still doing it. I also used the imei tool to restore what I had backed up (EFS). Can anyone help? What is going wrong?
Edit: Phone restarted with root BUT now I cannot make calls (it says roaming) and I am missing the prl and other things again. HOWEVER, I can use wifi, and 4g and no texting also.
If anyone has a clue I'd like to know, thanks.

I actually could not find the stock modem. I DID solve it.
1.) Odin back to stock. It will freeze on the activation screen.
2.) Remove sim card after shutting down.
3.) It will get past that and connect with wifi.
4.) THEN clock on roaming to turn it on with sim in.
5.) Phone will then contact US Cellular to "activate and program." It will finish after a few minutes.
6.) Restart and enjoy
In case this happens to anyone else. Thanks for the help (lol). I've had a Droid Eris, HTC DNA, and a Droid Bionic.
The current problem is this: I installed Chainfire 3d on the S5. After rebooting, it got stuck at the logo screen. I haven't installed Clockworkmod Recovery so the recovery is still the stock one. I tried factory resetting and wiping the cache but it's still stuck at the logo. I assume this is because Chainfire 3d is in the /system. I turned on the activation lock too so I can't use Odin to flash a new ROM or zip. What can I do??
Thanks for any help!
I had issues after flashing back to stock. US Cellular version. What I had to do was REMOVE the sim card, reboot, then it would get into the system. From there you can do what you need to do (especially over wifi as you'll only have wifi). I then rebooted again (completed activation with sim card removed) and this time I had the sim card inserted. This worked for me. MAYBE it will work for you. I had an issue nobody would help me with.

Sadly, that did not make a difference but thanks anyway!
Is there any way to flash a custom recovery through the stock recovery? That might allow you to boot into a custom recovery and then flash a custom ROM or stock firmware.
Did you ever get this resolved?
Hello, ive acquired a Rogers s4 i337m that has been sim unlocked and rooted, and possibly aws enabled. It has worked for about two months on Wind with no issues and all of a sudden it started dropping signal and lock into roaming mode.
I've done many firmware upgrade and downgrades, flashed custom ROMs and different modems. Formatted the /system, data, cache, dalvik.
On a fresh install it looks like it works. Until I put the phone away. After about 30min to an hr the phone automatically switches to Roaming and I don't even have an option to select Wind as a network provider.
Anyone with similar issues could please xhime in?
Just switched to 4.4.2 bootloader and modem (NC1), with Kangapop Rom
Anyone?
Keep switching firmwares and different modems, as well as playingwith Debug Menu. It will stick to Wind for 5-10min with choppy signal, then switch to roaming and never give me Wind option again

back up your phone in kies first.... incase....take sim out... upgrade to new software... go in recovery and enable cp logging. and clear cache... dont have to do factory reset but if you want to have a clear head go for it... then push the aws via qpst... once restart push the phoneutil.apk via sd card... restart with phone. and that should fix the prob
:good:
Hey all,
So, a little backstory: I got this HTC 10 from Sprint not too long ago, and little did I know that I would be stuck with Sprint unless I reflash the phone firmware. (after research, asking HTC and Sprint, I received misinformation from reps stating that the phone would work on Verizon with just a carrier unlock issued over the air). Moral of the story: don't rely on customer service :silly:.
Fast forward to now, and I have rooted (temporarily to run Sunshine), S-OFF'd (using Sunshine), changed the CID (for Verizon), and flashed the newest Verizon RUU that developer Dottat kindly posted here.
That worked, full LTE, but then whenever the camera or GPS were accessed by any application, the phone would freeze with a black screen (though it seemed something was still running in the background, as notification sounds would still play, and I could exit by pressing the home button and waiting about a minute). After this, I tried flashing the Viper ROM just for kicks, but then the cellular radios only functioned with 3G coverage (no LTE in a coverage area), and GPS was still broken (the camera issue was fixed with this flash for some reason).
Unfortunately (or maybe not), I am pretty sure /system has been wiped multiple times. I also ran
Code:
htc_fastboot erase modemst1
htc_fastboot erase modemst2
after each install of a new ROM, then performed a factory reset from recovery (just a factory reset, nothing more).
Now I went ahead and used an official ROM from HTC's website in an attempt just to get full functionality working on any carrier. I flashed the USA unlocked variant (and changed the CID to BS_US001. MID is still 2PS650000), but now I am experiencing more missing functionality. The camera and GPS are still missing, and now the SIM card is not detected (when entering the access point names dialog, a message pops up stating that there is no SIM, or SIM error when I am using an activated AT&T SIM). When I enter the test menu (*#*#4636#*#*) and select any option for network mode other than what is default (LTE/CDMA), the new option won't 'stick' (it returns to default after a few seconds).
This sounds to me like there is stale firmware on the device from a previous flash, or that the firmware for these core peripherals is corrupt. Is there a way I can get these devices working again? Or am I now stuck with a bricked device ? I do still have a backup I took of what was installed stock by Sprint (all except for /data...but I don't need that partition, right?)
EDIT: Mods, I am terribly sorry! I meant to post this in HTC 10 Q&A. I don't see a way to delete a thread, so hopefully we can move it.

A MOD should move it soon.
I am not the best here, but hopefully can be of some help.
I would just superCID, save a step for flashing RUU's.
So, when you flash the Verizon RUU, does camera work?
(if you RUU and only have 3g, wipe the modems to get 4g back)
If your trying to use the phone on Verizon I would do the following:
1) Change your CID to Super, 11111111
2) Flash the US Unlocked RUU, http://www.htc.com/us/support/rom-downloads.html#unlocked
3) After it fully boots, reboot into the bootloader & flash the Verizon radio, http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-htc-10/how-to/vzw-how-to-unlocked-model-vzw-t3376743
4) Make sure the Preferred Network is set to Global, Settings>Mobile data>Preferred Network
5) Get to the secret menu *#*#4636#*#*, and set the preferred network type to "CDMA/EvDO/GSM/WCDMA/LTE Auto"
I use a Verizon model with the US Unlocked firmware. As far as custom ROMs, some work with Verizon's network and some don't. I'm sure theres a workaround but I've stuck with the US Unlocked firmware, and just use Xposed for any tweaks/mods.
If your trying to use it on AT&T and the radio from the US unlocked RUU should work.
