My question is would it work? I don't care for the use of 4G, just wifi. Is this going to brick my device or can I use them and lose the 4G?

you will likely brick your device, or bootloop... wont be able to boot up succesfully.

I've been searching all around for this answer...
I'm wanting to root and flash my UNLOCKED myTouch 3G, but I'm wondering if the phone will still be unlocked and work on any carrier? Will doing this lock the phone back to T-Mobile?
I'd be trying the 1 Click Root thing and I guess you have to go back to 1.5? Just want to make sure so I wouldn't risk having to lose my service and buy a code...
Thanks!
Yes, the phone will still be unlocked.
Hello. I flashed a Sprint LG G2 to PagePlus. The Flash goes well and All my items stick. But the problem is the connection is unstable. I'm noticed with both the LS970 and LS980 the same problem happens. The mobile data will first connect with 1x then to Evdo. Then the network will disconnect. I flash phones to pageplus all the time and they all have 3G - EVDO. But the unstable 3G is crazy. It will not stay connected. Why are the new LG phones like this? Has anyone encountered this problem and found a solution? I look forward to people's reply because I know a lot of people have run into this problem. Thanks in advanced.

Hello. Absolutely! That's my personal phone! Just make sure when you flash it, you leave the SIM card in the phone. 3g data works, mms, etc. Good luck.

The flashing method is same for all phones. Doesn't matter what kind. I'll give you a good starting place. Viper32 has a forum on here helping people with flashing. And there are plenty of forums with a ton of info. Good luck.
this g2 has been a nightmare for me. i have gotten used to samsung just flash and forget about it, only thing break flash on them is ota. this g2 though..... :/
I'm having same issue. unstable 3g
Sprint probs
What happened with mines is similar but I had the att variant
So I flashed mime to sprint and it worked but only on their 1x network and 3g towers in order for 4g to work and there new spark network I had to get a Sim card and pop it in and boom 4g LTE worked the sec I put it in

Any issues with losing call history at all, after flashing it to PagePlus?

No. Call history has nothing to do with flashing. The only way you can lose call history is if you factory reset the phone or you personally delete the call history yourself.

Actually its a known issue with this phone, that it looses its call history when flashed.
It has something to do with the Stock ROM release
I have the same issue.
Also I get a "MIP : 89" error sometimes.
Also, I have a system update downloaded waiting to install but not sure if it'll kill my flash so I've been scared to hit the button.

Is your phone the LS980? I had a customer who updated his LS980 this past week and I had to re-flash his phone. You'll probably have to re-flash as well.

Hey guys hope this is the right thread for this. I have a verizon s5 thats unlocked using tmobile sim card. Im in the states.... so question is if I root this put whatever rom on it will it cause any issues?? Ive read a lot of conflicting info so im not sure what to do. I loose 4g lte quite a bit and cant use it as a hotspot for my tablet.

I have a Verizon s5 rooted using it with net 10 in the states just fine. I have some issues with not being able to get data to turn off on the custom roms. It should work with tmo, though I really couldn't tell you if you would be able to keep 4g.

You ca keep 4G only if the area has a good reception afterall t mo uses Band 4 which luckily gs5 verizon supports, for the hotspot youll need to use foxify free on google playstore or since your rooted get the latest stock update from the general section ill suggest you use the OD5 by @muniz_ri http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...w-to-update-to-g900vod5-5-0-keeproot-t3136945 dowload that rom and flash the tether fix zip

I still have the original out of the box version file on my computer. I have updated my phone to the DE version. This is way different than the Note 5 firmware. I think I'm going to play with it this weekend to see if I can revert back to original stock though I'm not expecting a miracle. I'm hearing people can revert back but I'm not that interested in it until I need to be. I'm kind of disappointed that we don't have root and unlocked bootloader just yet but oh well. . it happens.
Bluetooth issues
I use my S8 with LG HBS1100 bluetooth headset and sometimes they disconnect... SOmetimes I can talk through whatsapp with the phone/speaker but not through bluetooth.
I also have the S8 connected to my Civic 2016 and it disconnect sometimes.
Tmobile signal/network is also very poor in some areas were I know are low but more noticeable.
I'm comparing these with my previous iphone 7+ S7 Edge and S8+.
I hope it improves with the update
I noticed my bluetooth acts wonky when I have any other wifi/bluetooth device active nearby. I did some testing with my work Iphone 7 and i get bad hickups in audio when its bluetooth or wifi is on in my car, when i turn it off, everything works fine.

I got the update and installed it. Hated it with a passion so i decided to flash the unlocked firmware onto my phone so i can avoid the stupid navbar 'improvement' and before i did flash it, i did make sure my phone was perm. Unlocked through t-mobiles network unlock so im set.

Yeah i did. I tried it out with someone's cricket SIM card and it worked on cricket like a charm. So in my opinion, it's worth flashing to unlock firmware after network unlock through the app.
I has a previous flash from someone else and is rooted and has 4.1.2 but to make things bad it was programmed to only get 3g and I can't even factory reset it because it seems someone locked that up so it can't be accidentally unflashed. It was flashed to work on Pageplus Network years ago and 4g wasn't available on their network at that time hence 4G was disabled intentionally so the phone would work on that network.crazy
Noteon't assume I know anything about the process!

Nope, this cannot be done remotely.
You have to do it yourself or take it to a repair shop (depends on which part of the world you are in)
