Hi guys,
My actual phone info:
Bought with JB Stock Vodafone from Spain
Imei unlocked
Updated over OTA to kitkat
rooted via CF auto root.
Knox tripped
Phone info:
XXUENA6
XXUENA2
VFGENA4
For a week, I looked all over XDA forums, read all threads but I still can't find a solution for my n9005 problem.
Here it is: I bought one in Spain, imei unlocked it to use it Morocco. Everything worked just fine and I could use gsm network with a sim from IAM (Moroccan Provider). I then set up mobile APN to have 3G, made sure my sim is 3g enabled, but the phone refused to pick up the 3g signal. I checked the phone's mobile network settings, and found that I haf only 2 options: gsm/wcdma automatic, and wcdma only options.
Well, since Maroc Telecom(IAM) isn't offering a 4G coverage yet, I think that's normal not to have the 4g option. Still, When I use the automatic option I only get 2g signal (and can read my mails over gprs,get twitter notifications, but no internet via browser, etc..).
When I choose Wcdma only option, I simply have no network signal at all.
When searching manually for networks, I get all 3 moroccan's providers but only their 2g networks.
I was prompted for the kitkat update via OTA, updated but it didn't solve the unavailable 3g problem(and caused a few others I managed to solve).
Now, I rooted my n9005 using cf auto root, and off course tripped knox, tried to reset the phone many times, but still no way to have a 3g signal.
Thought about installing a compatible Rom, but I am a newbie, coming from the Apple world, and need some help with this.
Actually, it amuses me that I really waited until android started to ressemble to IOS to decide to switch once for all to Android
Please guys, if you have any idea to help me get the 3G signal, that would be awsome.
Thank you in advance.

Hi All,
Got a GS4 i9505 originally locked to Vodafone, had to downgrade modem firmware to unlock to all networks - put in a Three sim - gives me signal but for emergency calls only - No data, no texts and no calls.
upgraded the modem firmware again - no change.
But a stock rom on - No change
Rooted and put a custom rom on - no change.
Tried a different sim (EE) and doesnt give any signal.
Everything now points to the IMEI being blocked right - Nope, checked that and its not blocked.
So im stuck, any ideas?
Thanks all
Where did you get the phone from? New or used? What firmware where you on and what are you on now?

OP, what country are you in?
The reason I ask is there is no such thing as three in Australia any more, it was closed down on the 31st august.

modem problems...
u need to visit Service Center :sly:
Send my E-960/S4 LTE/N2 GSM and /Galaxy Y to xda
Thanks for the replies.
The phone is second hand - apparently it was "unlocked" for 3 when i got it - even though it had a Vodafone bloatware rom on it.
Im from UK - :/ but thanks for the suggestion.
Its on 4.2.2 - stock rom - it was on a custom rom (not sure what though)
When you say Modem, do you mean the hardware or software?
If it is the modem, how would the 3 sim get signal but an EE sim wont?
Thanks
I'm trying to get my S4 to LTE only mode so it will accept non whitelisted LTE networks. This used to be possible with an app called "ServiceMode Shortcut", but it seems this is no longer supported in the new rom.
Does any of you know how to get there in 4.4?

Flash ME2 modem mate then , set it up and reflash latest modem once again. Im on 4.4.2 and in order for me to activate HD voice i need to flash mk2 modem and go to dialer and dial those number ie: *#0011# in order to reach HD voice settings and reflash the latest modem
Thanks for the reply.
Does it still work in the GE rom? I don't mind installing that ... I really need it to be easily switchable. I use this phone in a work environment where I also do a lot testing on 2G, 3G and 4G networks. Otherwise I might just downgrade.

If your planning to edit something in Servicemode . You need to flash the modem ME2 via odin mate And yes it should work fine .Since Im using a 4.4.2 kitkat
...
I am in Pakistan and using Warid carrier which has LTE Band 3 - 1800. I have bought a used Samsung Rooted N9005 BTU (UK) which is I believe supports the my carrier band . The stock rom was 4.2.2 (xxugng1). I have tried all the methods to make the LTE option available but nothing works. Here are the methods I tried :
1. Changing the persist.lteon file, it did not work
2. Changing the lteon_netlist.xml"located in /system/csc/common/etc
3. Change from Service Mode gwl
4 . Alot of other ways
Laslty, I installed a custom rom Lollipop by AryaMOD. The ROM worked well and I could see the LTE option in Mobile Networks menu. Unfortunately, the LTE does not work and still I see the Edge connected. I have verified the APN settings and they are perfect according to my Carrier required parameters. Also, I updated my Modem but still all invain.
Could some one help me to figure out the issue that could be there?
I will really appreciate quick response.
Have you tried a new SIMcard? 90% of the 'LTE doesn't work' cases (in customer services) are related to old or damaged SIMcards.

Hi guys, please help me. actually I have a strange problem: I have a korean note 4 N916K and since 1 month I have this strange problem of emergency calls only with all Simcards . Or IMEI is correct, wifi works perfectly, only this problem of emergency calls only when I set network mode to LTE/3G/2G automatically or 3G/2G automatically or 3G only. I tried everything I know, reflashing original roms from Samsung(android 5.0.1, 5.1.1, 6.0.1), many custom roms ..., ... No way, no solution. The only thing that I tried to make my phone working as phone is just put the network mode in setting to 2G, not 3G, nor 4G, just 2G. With 2G only as network mode, the emergency calls only disappeared BUT now I can't connect to 3G and 4G anymore. Please please help me guys, I really need to use at least 3G
Thank you in advance guys.

I have the same issue in my 910c.
It stopped working out of nowhere, november 2016, I was using the same stable rom for months at the time, wasn't due to a bad update.
Tried everything to fix it, even downgraded to kitkat stock rom, restored IMEI backup, nothing seems to work.
I'm only able to use it as a phone in 2g, it's painful.
Checked my IMEI already, it's not blocked, serial number is correct, CSC is correct, region is correct...
Anyone passed through this and managed to fix it?

Hi Guys, this section of the forum looks very quiet but looking for advice on how to enable WiFi calling, i am on EE due to signal issues where i live and have an EE booster box in the house, problem is i need WiFi calling. I have bought a Note 4 which was previously on Vodafone. i have done lots of searching and see some people have managed to install firmware or flashed the phone so it works.
As i am quite a novice to this can anyone help explain how to do it?
much appreciated
If it is available, it will be in the phone (dailer) settings. But I am pretty sure that EE doesn't support the Note 4

It helps when you ask for help to provide information on your phone; model, ROM, country, and service provider. In any case I have Wi-Fi calling on a 910C in the USA using Straight Talk (T-Mobile). Your SIM card needs to support it and your phone needs to be Wi-Fi Enable. To enable the phone I use Magisk and module "VoEnabler". I can turn off Data and still make calls and send MMS/SMS through Wi-Fi. Hope this information helps. GL

Your phone is a SM-N910F(Snapdragon, Qualcomm) and you will need Odin on a computer , CF-Autoroot by Chainfire, TWRP recovery, and Magisk. I will attach some of the files, others are too big, but since you stated you are a novice there is some reading that you need to do and videos are helpful too. I will only attached the generic files. Performing and or using the above tools improperly can brick your phone, so make sure that you understand the process. On this forum you can find how to root and install TWRP, just use the "search this thread" blank block. Again, there are videos on Google showing the process starting with Odin, then CF Auto Root, TWRP, and Magisk. Use the information to download the correct files for your model (CF Auto Root, TWRP). Good luck.
