[Q] Samsung S4 LTE - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Good afternoon all.
Excuse for my English.
Don't delete a subject please if suddenly it is already.
I have a problem with S4 GT I9505.
I can't include the LTE point in the network menu.
The provider without this point doesn't give USIM LTE.
I tried many insertions, without result.
In recovery, when dumping a cache the mistake writes.
Whether there is a method to stitch by means of a restoration insertion? phone from England.
Thanks in advance.

[Q] Galaxy s4 i9500 sim unlock problems

Hi, guys. A friend of mine asked me to help with sim-unlock of I9500. I no nothing about the background of the phone but it cam with corrupted imei and sim locked status. When inserting the sim, phone poped up notification saying that it works only in US and Latin America.
Initial ROM was I9500UBUEMK1, reflashing it to I9500XXUAMDK with I9500UBUBMG9 modem helped to restore the IMEI. But sim-lock is still present. Tried different modems, nothing works. I get Current Command is 111 when I try to enter service mode. Some modems give access to servicemode menu however, does not read the imei, so unlock is also imposible on them. Any advises are welcome.

Receiving "SIM card from unknown source" on unlocked S5??

hi all,
short story: Friend on T-Mobile needed a new phone. I bought them a Unlocked Americas S5 (SM-G900H) on amazon. They received it today. Swap sim cards from their damaged s4. Have them set it to global in network settings, have them change the ADN, and a couple other settings to get it to work on T-Mobile. Find out what was sent was a unlocked Verizon S5 model (SM-G900V) according to their system info screen. They also see Verizon apps installed and whatnot, and bootloader. Either way, they are able to receive data, text, calls. And they are getting 4GLTE just fine (shows and detcts it as tmobile, and they can download and browse the net, no issues), not HPSA+. Work like a charm as far as data and voice go.
However, only one issue.... they keep getting a "SIM Card is from a unknown source" warning on the taskbar that's just annoying. I had them root their phone, install supers, and install a root file browser after finding some information to freeze or remove "vzwphoneservice.apk" which seems to fix this same issues for others on older android phones. Problem is, its not there... not in system\app and not in system\priv-app where it should be. They use 4.4.2 kitkat. So I check my own note 3, which is also Verizon and has 4.4.2 kitkat. Im rooted, check same folders, that file is not in either of those directories.
To me, its apparent Verizon has changed the filename. Just trying to find out what it is so I can freeze or remove it to get rid of that Verizon "SIM Card from unknown source" warning.
Any suggestions or ideas? would be greatly appreciated

Confirm that both vzwphoneservice.apk and vzwphoneservice.odex are renamed or removed. You may also need to rename VzwController.apk and VzwController.odex and clear your phone cache (from recovery mode).
These are Verizon setup files and it is looking for an encrypted SIM that CDMA carriers like to use. The above should vanquish the message unless you have really rotten luck vis a viz Verizon having added yet another Kitkat setup package.

did you ever figure this out ?
One post wonders. New members who solicit our help to solve their issue. But they don't have the courtesy to even let us know how the situation resolved. Perhaps it's an outright waste of time to try helping people with less than n posts.

Welcome to XDA.
It would be good if you started a new thread though, rather than hijack someone else's thread on a similar topic.
Tell us what you tried looking for (filenames, where.. using what app, etc. and what phone model you have.. as many details as you can) and lots of us will try to help you out.

[Q] "SIM card removed" Message

I am continually getting a message requiring me restart the phone. I have reinstalled the firmware with no positive results. I think the sim slot is okay. My phone is out of warranty. I am attaching a screen shot. I get it several times a day but no clear trigger. Any ideas?
AT&T galaxy s4 i377 nb1 stock rooted.
Hi there,
First of all you must give us more details about your device/ROm and so on for a better answers or pointing.
Second, did you try it to contact your operator for change that SIM? Maybe its damaged.
Good luck

No phone calls?

Hey guys, I come here very often and now I'm going to have to open this thread because I've seen absolutely no posts about my problem..
My S6 Edge+ is currently unable to make any calls and I don't know why..:crying: the strange part is that I can still send text messages and use my SIM's mobile data... Another weird thing is that whenever I reboot the phone, my WiFi passwords are forgotten..
Can any one help me? I'm currently running android 6.0.1 and I am considering downgrading it to 5.0.1 to see if it solves the issue...
Still needing help..
No one?? I really need some help since I've tried 4 different roms and modems ano nothing seems to work....
Have you wiped everything and then flashed a stock rom?

Which variant do you have and which MM firmware did you flash? Check your modem, imei, network operator etc and provide that info here.
Also wifi password IMO related with
Code:
ro.securestorage.support=true
this line in build.prop. I would suggest you to add this line under 'ADDITIONAL_BUILD_PROPERTIES' in build.prop but assume you havent rooted your device. If have, add it.

I've downgraded to 5.1.1 and it didn't work, I have the international version of the s6 edge plus and now I'm looking for a new ROM to test to see if I can solve it.. I've checked my imei in two different websites and on imei.info it comes clear, but the other site gives me a blacklisted warning, which makes me think since I bought it online second hand... it probably was reported stolen or lost and now it's blocked... which ise rather inconvenient. .
If I go to SIM Card Status it says "Not Available" everywhere, but on imei information it says my imei and on IMEISV the value is 01. It's network unlocked and right now I'm about to flash a new ROM, probably stock..
Hello, I have the same problem at boot after I receive the call when making a call nothing remains of numbering you have a solution? thank you cordially guillaume
Hi guys, I know this is a really old thread but I'm here just to say that the problem was with the IMEI, it was blacklisted..
I changed it with a friend and then everything worked fine..
Thanks for you help mates!

Galaxy S3 i9300 - Not registered on network

Hi at all! I'm new on this forum, so I hope I didn't break any rule. Anyway, I'm trying to recover a friend's phone, a Samsung Galaxy S3 (i9300) International Version.
He said he installed a rom called "Android Revolution HD", which appears to be an improved version of the stock rom. Anyway, now the phone does not register on the network.
The IMEI in the settings menu is correct, also the signal appears to be ok, but when I try to select a network, the phone does not register.
So, I tried almost all the solutions I have found on this site, from trying a bunch of different modems, to installing the whole stock ROM (Android 4.3).
But none of these worked. So, there is a real solution I can try?
Thanks in advance!

I have the same problem for months now i have tried a lot of solution but nothing works. i am hoping a senior member can help fix this issue. And just incase some has a viable solution, they should kindly help out. :fingers-crossed:
What I think is you've updated it from 4.1.2 without any EFS backup. Well I had been through the same situation and couldn't find I single thing. In the end I had to get my S3 repaired from a local shop. I think you should go too.
