found hsdpa 2 Edge may save battery - G1 General

"1) Goto dialer and dial *#*#4636#*#* (DO NOT press send)
wait a second and you will get the test menu.
2) In the test menu choose 'Phone Information'
3) scroll down and choose on the first drop down - unknown
4) Back all the way out.

actually most likely will go up and down from H to E but will most likely save battery!

Create GPSSetup2 Shortcut on Homescreen (Needs Launcher Pro)

Guide to create GPSSetup2 shortcut on the homescreen. First you'll have to download and install the homescreen and launcher replacement LauncherPro (Attached, link at the bottom). Then, follow these steps.
1. Press the center key on the phone. You'll get two options on the screen: 'LauncherPro' and 'TwLauncher'. Select LauncherPro. Let LauncherPro load.
2. Now again press the center key and this time select TwLauncher.
3. After it loads, press and hold your finger on an empty spot on the screen.
4. In the list that pops out, select Shortcuts.
5. Then select Activities.
6. After a few seconds you'll get a long list of Applications. Scroll down to GPSSetup2. Touch GPSSetup2, it'll expand to show more options. From this expanded list, select the first option i.e GPSSetup2 (com.sec.android.app.GPSSetup2.GpsSetup).
7. That's it. You'll now have a shortcut to GpsSetup2 on the homescreen.
8. After this is done, simply go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications and uninstall Launcher Pro if you don't want to use it.
9. If you do want to use it, press the center key, tick 'Use by default for this action', then press 'LauncherPro' (Much better than the Samsung Launcher and homescreen, except for the less colorful icons).
That's it. No need to enter that long code anymore to enter GPSSetup2 everytime..
Alternate Method: (By stubborn_d0nkey)
1. Download and install any cut (only 31 kb) from the market
2. Long press on a home screenc
3. Choose shortcuts->any cut->activity
4. scroll down to gpssetup2 and click on it
5. Click ok (change the name if you want to)
6. there ya go
if you wish you can uninstall (settings->applications->manage applications-> any cut and press unistall) and the shortcut will stay.
but it is only 31kb and it might be useful sometime in the future

I'm using activities in LaunchPro - that's very usefull also for switching APNs (exchange/google) but I haven't found any manual for gpsSetup2 (what each option is good for)
Alternate:
1. Download and install any cut (only 31 kb) from the market
2. Long press on a home screenc
3. Choose shortcuts->any cut->activity
4. scroll down to gpssetup2 and click on it

GPSSetup as (favorite) contact
Why not just set the USSN Code of GPSSetup as phone contact?
Type the numbers, save them once and "call" them any time you need GPS. So theres no need to install additional apps

Yeah, you are right, but there are more steps involved in selecting the saved contact and then calling to run it, unless you have a widget to store a direct link to call the contact on the homescreen. Creating the shortcut, although more complicated at first, is a much faster way later to access it.

CAF Data Issues/wifi disconnect - lose LTE FIX -

Tired of LTE/data disconnecting on VS980 or other G2 CAF builds when disconnecting from wifi or when the phone reboots or other??
I may have a fix for you..
Install Tasker
Install Secure Settings and install the system+ option. Open tasker and create new task
- Name task LTEtoggle
step 1 : Click + then type wait in the seach bar and select wait then select 1 second hit back
step 2 - Click + and select plugin then select secure settings
- Select Custom Rom Action and select LTE
- Select toggle and hit save icon in the upper right
-make sure to select continue task after error and hit the back button
REPEAT STEP ONE
REPEAT STEP 2 - WITH THE EXCEPTION - Instead of selecting toggle, select ON and hit save.
-hit back
- Select Profiles and click the + at the bottom and select state.
- type wifi and select wifi connected then hit back button
-Menu will pop up, select LTEtoggle you just made.
Long press the LTEtoggle icon with the little green arrow then select EXIT task
-Select LTEtoggle again.
-Long press on the TOP GREEN LTEToggle and select unlink task.
-Make sure the switch is on, exit in the upper right and save when prompted.
Open tasker again and make sure its enabled in the upper left and corner by long pressing the wheel.
- You will get an error from toast saying LTEtoggle failed but ignore it or disable.
There is your LTE toggle when disconnecting from wifi. Works pretty well so far...
You can create another profile and select DEVICE boot and add the LTE toggle to it. And you will have an LTE auto switch for when your phone reboots or other..


A quicker way to enable all LTE bands:

Hey,
I live in China and I have a Korean Samsung S5. Chinese LTE bands are different, so I was trying to make LTE work using the standard guide.
However, I found a much easier way to enable more bands using a few simple steps and no need fo custom roms or kernels.
I am not sure why this worked for me or if it is going to work for anyone else. Do this at your own risk!
What I did was I went to this site:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/guide-enable-unlock-edit-add-gsm-lte-t2948822
Then I scrolled down and used the instructions to check the LTE bands my phone already supports.
Here's how you can check you existing LTE bands:
Open the dial pad
Type: *#0011# to enter Service Mode (Be very careful with what you do here)
Note: You need to be rooted for this to work
Once in Service Mode, do the following:
Tap the menu button and tap Back
Tap the menu button again and select "Key Input" and enter an upper case Q and press OK
Tap the menu button again and select "Key Input" and enter 4 zeroes (0000) and press OK
Wait 5 - 15 seconds. You'll see the Main Menu
Choose option [2]: UE SETTING & INFO
Choose option [1]: SETTING
Choose option [1]: PROTOCOL
Choose option [2]: NAS
Choose option [1]: NETWORK CONTROL
Choose option [4]: BAND SELECTION
Choose option [4]: LTE Band Preference
Choose option [7]: LTE ALL (Or you can choose any band instead)
If you want to go back then tap the menu button and choose Back (Don't press the back key)
Press the back key to exit.
After step 7, I pressed a new option that came up: GSM 850
then I clicked option, back, back again. Nothing happens, pressed home button and I see I have no signal. Then I turn on airplane mode, swich it off and I see that my phone connects to LTE. So now I have a stock Android 5.0 rooted Galaxy S5 that supports all LTE bands.
This is much more simple than the guide already on XDA.
Please post feedback, because I do not know anything else besides what I have already posted. Thanks.
does this enable band 12

Has anyone been successful adding lte bands to the SM-G900F while running Cyanogenmod 13.0 ro 14.1
Alternate access to Service Mode
On my phone SM-G900V running Marshmallow, The *#0011# didn't get me into Service Mode Main Menu,...I had to use the following in dialer: *#27663368378# to get into the Main Menu screen.
Hope this clue will save someone a couple of hours of frustration, and research. I Hate Marshmallow, Especially it's F__ked-Up Storage Management! SD Card write protected.

Maybe this will help. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2303905

Moto X Pure and Moto Warranty Fiasco - Locked Phone.. W T F

So many people that regularly troll the popular android sites (droid-life, etc) may have seen the news about Moto dropping the ball on warranties. Well, to make it short - I paid for an advanced exchanged, received my new phone after some complaining for a long wait. They sent me a 64gig bamboo version instead of my basic white 32 version. SCORE!! Right?? No - I go to boot it up and I am getting the "this device has been reset. To continue - - - yada yada". Basically they did a factory reset after replacing a broken screen I suppose locking the phone in that anti theft mode.
Is there any type of rooting or flashing that I can do to bypass this? I really wanna keep this BETTER phone. They are asking me to send it back and they'll send me a new (32gb basic white) moto x pure.
thanks in advance
