[Q] Galaxy S5 apps stop working and grey lockscreen after flashing firmware

Hi I just got the Galaxy S5 but because it had carrier firmware on it i downloaded the international version of the firmware from sammobile.com but after flashing it voice recorder app and dropbox says stopped working all the time and i can not use the phone.
allthough the lock screed turned to grey..
any ideas????

I dont recommend flashing firmware for different varients of the S5.
I HIGHLY recommend you reflash your carrier's firmware. Then just flash one of the International ROMs, which will not alter your baseband.

Problem with custom ROMs on the G900P

Hi guys, when to flash custom rom on the 900F , 3g is lost and there is no line APN settings and select CDMA or GSM, CDMA only works without a 3g .... cant understand what was happening, there was a problem after updating to OK4 tried already ... about 10 ROMs ...

So... What phone do you have? a G900F or a G900P? Remember that sometimes the custom roms for G900F are not compatible with a G900P and if you use it on Sprint you won't be able to get your phone to work correctly with CDMA, Reflash to stock OK3 on odin but before wipe data cache and stuffs... Hope it helps, it does on my G900P

I have G900P ... Until the update to OK4, everything worked

in the upper left corner instead of the Sprint ... roaming indicator is written off

S4 I9505 only 2G (E) mode working.

Hello,
I got a S4 and it had a Chinese modem number (ZHUFNB3), I don't recall whether 4G was working there or not on android 4 but what I did was flash crDroid 7.1.1 and kept the same modem, 4G and 3G was not working here, only 2G. Since I live in Albania, I supposed that it's no wonder that the 4/3G was not working with a Chinese modem, so I downloaded an stock firmware built for Albania well Hungary actually (XXUHOJ4) but it started downloading those Vodafone bloatware in my language so it's good. Problem is, the 4G is still not working and the APN is configured correctly. What could be the cause of this? Could it be that I need to take it where I bought it and have those guys change the entire board?
Thanks in advance!

What is the phone's model # in download mode? Does the model # in download mode and imei match the model # and imei on the label under the battery?

Galaxy s7 edge weird issue?

Hy all! This is my first thread.
And so sorry for my english.
So I bought a galaxy s7 edge (g935f) from the internet and it has a lot of weird issue...first this phone is a single sim t-mobile (hungary) version, but the software says this is a dual SIM version (935FD) I flashed a full-wipe 4 file from with Odin but after that the problem is still there. If I go to the ONE I menu the first imei is the phone's own imei, but the second imei is just a lot of zeros.
My second problem is that the wireless connections doesn't works.
The Bluetooth can't find any BT devices and the Wi-Fi is recognize only the 5ghz networks.(2.4ghz networks are invisible)
Is it possible to get this phone back to normal?
Is it should work if I try to reinstall the phone with smart switch? That app is download firmware that is match with the phone original carriers Rom.
Thanks in advance.

If the phone is the dual sim one (SM-G935FD) flashing the BTU ROM from SM-G935F (single SIM model) or the INU ROM from the SM-G935FD, it'll detect the second SIM slot that also works as microSD card.
By detecting it, it seems you have an G935FD...
try flashing one of those ROM's I have mentioned above with ODIN and do full wipe of the phone.
That will probably solve everything

Where did you get your phone from? Better return it...

Btu is samsung stock 7 firmware basically for Uk region it's available here on xda. Try to flash the full firmware and see if it's work for you or not. Also you can flash stock 935fd firmware.
