I'm in Jamaica and I have a T-Mobile G2 2.3.4 the warranty seems to be up on the device and I was wondering if it still can be rooted..
you should be able to, have you tried rooting it?
I've just recently bought this S4 off my friend
The phone was bought in canada, and sent to Denmark for my friend's brother to use
and he now sent it back to me (Canada) because my S3 has died on me.
It is an GS4 i337m VLUFNE1
It is on official firmware 4.4.2
I want to root it to enable AWS to use it with Wind mobile
I assume the phone is unlocked because it was used in Denmark
Please direct me to a thread that will be able to root this model
I have looked at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2293800
but I'm nervous to follow the method because there is a discussion about unlocked and locked bootloaders, and i'm not sure
if this method will work for mine.
Your help is appreciated.
There is no carrier logo on the back of the phone either, if that helps.
Did you check if towelroot works? Its just running an app.
hello i live in Mexico. I wanted to Get the LS980 G2 on GSM Telcel. I followed:
"[GUIDE] Unlock LS980 ZVD (KK 4.4.2) [UPDATED 8/10/14]" by jsergio123, I seem to be able to get the signal/bars, but don't seem to be able to get data. I've put the correct APN's but it never gets data.
I read somewhere that Cloudy Rom is GSM. so i tried that Rom, I am able to call and txt, but no data. i tried flashing D805 KK Baseband, but it would get stuck when starting up. Flashed LS890 KK Baseband back and Flashed CloudyG2 2.1 and chose The D805 Variant but on reboot it would show "fastboot" and so on.
Could Someone Help Me?? I've tried everything that I could find in the forums. I've unlocked phones before without any problem, but this one seems to be very reluctant to give me data!. I'm about to give up on this phone.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Anybody? ANY help would be appreciated!!
I'm new to rooting ATT phones, my wife just go a free ATT S4 I337UCUFNC1 from a friend and I want to root, convert it from ATT to T-Mobile phone then unlocking it.
The phone doesn’t have a sim yet but I'm planning on putting my wife's present T-mobile sim in there.
I'm very familiar with the T-mobile Samsung S4 version.
I've read that I need a safestrap after root?
Can I update to 4.4.4?
Can someone point me in the right direction?

Follow this to root http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=56453100. To run on tmobile you'll have to sim unlock it. Try regionally away

To Sim unlock, flash the MF3 modem in safestrap recovery and then run regionlockaway app.
Thanks alot, I was able to boot in Safestrap Recovery but after I rebooted from that and then tried to reboot back into Recovery Safestrap FC'ed. I tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling it but is FC'ed again, dunno what's it going on.
How do I get back into Recovery if Safestrap is FC'ing? (I'm trying to flash the MF3 modem)
NVM, Got back into recover, flashed the modem now and used Region SimLock, I took my T-Mobile sim and put it in the AT&T phone and it works.
Now I will try to convert it from AT&T to a T-Mobile Phone using : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-att/general/convert-i337-to-m919-wifi-caling-t2896719
Quick Question
If I use this method to convert from a AT&T to T-Mobile will I loose the Unlock Sim?
Would I be able to use Region SimLock again with the being updated to 4.4.4?
Got everything going... completed!
Thanks!
I have a AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 (Unlocked) and I am currently using it on Cricket wireless. The phone is currently running on Android 4.4.3 and I would like to update the same to Lollipop. Samsung Galaxy S4 got Lollipop rolled out by AT&T recently but I was not able to get the same since I switched carriers.
Now what is the best way to update the phone. If possible I don't want to root the phone. I went to best buy local store but they were not able to do the same as they said the phone is unlocked. Please let me know how I can update my phone to the latest version. It will be really helpful if someone can point me in the right direction.
Thanks all in advance for the help.
Will putting a AT&T sim in my phone help with the OTA? In the sense if I get an AT&T sim card from someone or purchase one and put it in to my phone will that help with the OTA? I am not sure if this phone was unlocked by AT&T.
I was able to successfully install the updates on my phone. I was able to downgrade my phone by installing stock 4.4.2 using ODIN and then was able to upgrade my device to 4.4.4 first and then update to 5.0.1 via OTA. It was an easy process and the instructions in the ODIN thread was really helpful.
Similar situation
I too have an unlocked SGH-I337 that is unlocked from AT&T and I'm using it on T-Mobile. How did you perform the Lollipop update without an AT&T SIM? I took mine to the Samsung experience at Best Buy and they weren't able to do it via Kies and they believe it's because it's unlocked. Nothing else has been done to it, just the AT&T unlock so that I could switch carriers.
Thanks in advance,
Charlotte
