freedompop lollipop issues

i recently bought a samsung l720 freedompop. it had the custom rom that freedompop phones come with.
i was using a official samsung pc app to restore my settings from another phone.
the app gave me a firmware update offer to lollipop, it installed lollipop 5.0.1 .
i downloaded the freedompop app and now i have issues.
the phone stays at 3G or wifi. unless im connected to my own wifi source i cannot make or receive calls.
i had to re root the phone { using this method .. galaxys4root.com/galaxy-s4-root/how-to-root-galaxy-s4-using-twrp-method/[/url] }
i want my phone to work. is there a fix for this or do i have to downgrade back to kit kat in order to make my phone work ??

3G voice is really bad via freedompop. They have a new service for $3 a month to use the sprint voice channel when you don't have a good enough data pipe...

S7 reroot for undetected hotspot service?

Originally posted in XDA Assist. Was asked to register and come to this page and post my query here.
Along time ago I rerooted my S4, so that i could have unlimited data through the S4 Hotspot. Ihave to say it worked like a charm. I have just purchased a S7. ( OCT-2016)
I wish the S7 to perform the same function that the S4 did for all those years. I first heard that" S7 cant be done". But i knew in time guys like XDA would come up with a way to do it. I recently heard that it is now possible. So first step i took was throwing in some keywords in youtube. I found alot of video in this regards.
As of today: My goal is to have the S7 hotspot feature turned on with out sprint knowing ( charging/monitoring ) my hotspot is on.
What method is the safest route to do this? A great step by step video would be awesome. I followed the steps for the S4. So Im hoping the steps for the S7 will be similar.
The guy in this video says that in time there will be better methods.
( MAX LEE - How to Root Qualcomm Galaxy S7/S7 Edge! [AT&T/T-Mobile/Sprint/Verizon]
And will his method provide the Undetected hotspot usage?
I tried the foxfi app but it required me to pay for hotspot to be on.
Please point me in the right direction. Thanks for your time.
I simply just want my S7 to turn on hotspot have access to my unlimited data. And sprint not know the wiser.

No one?

No need to root you phone. You should try the unlocked firmware. Hotspot can be enabled without rooting. There's an app called Shortcut Master Lite that you can use to enable the hotspot on the unlocked firmware. The thread below has all the info on the unlocked firmware and Shortcut Master Lite.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-galaxy-s7/help/bloat-free-firmware-930u-tried-t3428974
There are links to the unlocked firmware in the above thread, but they are older versions. I would recommend flashing a newer version of the unlocked firmware which you can download from here:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/97557/G930UUEU2APG9_G930UOYM2APG9_SPR/
This isn't the latest firmware, but you can just check for system update once you get it loaded and there will be another update that should download and install.
Good Luck.

thank you for that info. However. I attempted to root my phone. and now it doesnt recognize the sprint carrier or lte signal. it wont make calls or surf web. So now im stuck with a phone thats telling me it detects unathorized changes and to restart to redo changes. but when I do that. nothing changes. So now Im screwed. only thing i can think of is installing the original stock firmware. But Im going to assume thats an impossible task.

from what i can tell shortcut master lite doesnt work. I found the place to add the ,dun. but the option was greyed out. not clickable.

You have to be on the unrooted unlocked firmware for Shortcut Master Lite to work. You CAN'T root the unlocked firmware, as you discovered, and you don't need to if all you want is hotspot. Shortcut Master Lite does work on the stock unlocked firmware. You should be able to re-flash the full unlocked firmware and be good to go.

[Q] Help! S7 Edge SM-G935A Andriod 7 Nougat update data not working

Hi ,
I have a unlokced at&t s7 galaxy edge and I was using it till yesterday on Tmobile network
every thing was working fine till this andriod 7/ Nougat update came in.
As everybody else I was very excited and let the phone go thru the udpate, everything went fine and I got andriod 7.
However after the update for some reason only mobile data ( I can make/receive calls) is not working on Tmobile network.
1. put the SIM into another phone to check there is no problem with the SIM/network outage. We found that there is no problem with sim/account and data/voice everything works exactly as it is supposed to work with another phone
2. I rechecked all the settings/apn/data/ etc many times on unlocked galaxy s7 edge phone but data is not working. I still see 4g/4g lte icon but I don't get the data. we tried manual search/resetting of network as well
4. I have put my brothers AT&T sim in on same unlocked galaxy s7 edge phone and data works fine.
can you please help me, advise what are my options now ?

What firmware were you running when you installed the OTA update? You may wanna try manually installing the full T-Mobile or AT&T Nougat firmware with Odin, just to make sure everything matches up?
Edit: hmm, if your brother's sim works in the phone, then everything might be ok. But still, installing the full firmware by hand won't hurt. This is weird tho lol

Ok, cool. I will search for it and try that out and post my results. Thank you!

Oneplus 6t not compatible with Samsung Wearables app

Hey all,
I tried to pair my Samsung Galaxy watch with my oneplus 6t but on Google play i get the message that it is not compatible with my device software.
I have already tried to install the APK (latest version) but no luck. When pairing it gave the same message.
I have 9.0.5 installed. Can anyone help me?

Did you unlock your bootloader or root? I had a OG Pixel with an unlocked bootloader, and even though I was on a completely stock ROM it still said it wasn't compatible. Relocked and everything was good to go.

I'm not having any issues whatsoever. I just copied the app via OnePlus switch from my old phone and it works flawlessly.
My Samsung Gear S3 connects just fine.
Rooted 9.0.5.

I just read on the Samsung website that S3 is compatible with other phones bit the Galaxy watch is not. This would be a huge problem.
Nevermind looks like i misunderstood it was regarding Samsung pay

I did indeed unlock the bootloader and rooted the device.
I removed Root that didn't make a difference.
I now restored the stock rom and locked the bootloader and it worked. It is paired. However how am i supposed to get root access now?
Any ideas?

Not having any issues with my old Gear S2 classic. Actually works better than any of the Pixel XL's I've had.

This is because the bootloader is unlocked. The Wearable app will not be available in the store if the bootloader is unlocked. You may be able to try stuff to hide that. (Perhaps like Magisk hide, and the like.)

Hi, please download the latest version of the following from apkmirror dot com (no outside URL is allowed here, so unable to post the link here:
1. Remove earlier versions Galaxy Wearable from OnePlus 6t phone.
2. Install Galaxy Wearable (Samsung Gear) app from apk mirror on the phone.
3. Install Galaxy Watch Plugin (latest version) from apk mirror on the phone.
4. Use Galaxy Wearable app to pair the watch.
So far it worked for me, yet to check more about the app, plugin and Google/Samsung Pay.

Here is the quick article i have mentioned in on post on One Plus Community.

Here is the detail from the same post - Just in case if you are not able to get through the above link:

Hey, I was facing the issue with Watch 5 Pro LTE pairing with my One Plus 6 - Hope this fix will help you too.
I am using a One Plus 6 mobile as well. However, this fix I used for my new Galaxy Watch 5 Pro LTE I am a customer of Airtel (Postpaid connection Hyderabad, INDIA) and tried connecting my Watch 5 Pro LTE (And it should work for all Samsung LTE Wearables).
I had come across the following error while setting up the LTE pairing on my One Plus 6 through the latest Samsung Wearable App - Please make sure you also download Samsung watch 5 plugins besides the app.
Error: http://es1.airtel.in/samsung-entitlement/UNDEFINED
It looks like we need to initiate it from Samsung mobile and then make a smart switch to the original mobile.
I found the following from other forums:
1. Get or lend a Samsung mobile with Android 5+ models
2. Put your Airtel postpaid sim on the Samsung mobile
3. Click, "connect to new phone" in galaxy watch LTE
4. Install galaxy wearable and plugin in Samsung mobile.
5. Connect the watch to Samsung Mobile
6. Set up mobile networks in the galaxy wearable app and follow the steps(2 mins work).
7. Galaxy watch will be connected to Airtel postpaid sim.
8. Disconnect from phone or give mobile networks -> Always on, u will be able to c tower indicator and airtel in galaxy watch.
9. Change ur sim to ur one plus Mobile.
10. Click " connect to new phone" and connect with your OnePlus (or another brand)Mobile.
11. Don't attempt to do mobile network setup in OnePlus(or another brand).
12. That's it. u can use ur airtel postpaid in ur OnePlus (or another brand) Mobile and as well in your galaxy watch.
Have a great time exploring the tech
