i have flashed two different roms and the hotspot worked great i flashed an official VANIR rom and a another unofficial AOSP ROM,calls didnt kill my hotspot,, but thd cameras didn't work in either rom,, so i flashed back to rooted stock,,really don't want a custom rom,, Samsung has a lot of good features that you will lose with a custom rom,,, is anyone else having this problem?

Please note that using the hotspot on 3G WILL stop when you receive/send a call. If you're on LTE, you should be able to use the hotspot and call people. This is NOT ROM specific.

[Q] Boost flashed no 3G when on custom ROM

My S4 is flashed to Boost Mobile. Whenever I install a custom ROM I get no 3G or 3G appears for no more than 2 seconds then its 1X. I nandroid backuped to stock and same problem so then I installed a Stock Deodexed NG2 Refitted ROM and right when this ROM boots Boost ID pops up it installs apps and puts it to my boost homescreen setting and my 3G and everything works fine. APN settings are the same when I switch ROMs so I have no idea what the problem is. I want to install a custom ROM like NegaLite but I am stuck at this point.

Have you tried using an app like apn backup and restore?
What are your apn settings on aosp? Are you on the latest modem firmware?

Right now I am on NG2 4.4.2 Stock deodexed NG2 Refitted ROM. This is the only ROM that my 3G works. My 3G worked on stocked rooted then I went to Negalite didn't work. So I nandroid to my stock rooted and 3G didn't work anymore so I tried this ROM i currently am on and it works.
My apn settings are all Sprint APNs and everything works fine and when I flash a ROM my APns are still the same but 3g is ****. I tried using APN backup and restore on this ROM it lets me disable ICS Check but when I install a different ROM that doesn't work so I can't use it. I even tried moving it to the system. I appreciate your reply

Are you sure it's true 3g on the refitted ROM. Sometimes it shows 3g but its really 1x. You can check under about phone status. 3g normally works for me as soon as I flash..no need to add apns. I only have to edit mmsc in APN settings to get MMS.

That's what usually happens to me. I installed Sac's ROM and everything works and I actually really like this ROM so I'm going to stay on here. I'm still trying to figure out how to remove this data stat notifiation or something on the top right and also how would I remove a NO SIM notification since I'm on Boost now I don't need a SIM

Missing 'fingerprint' service

Hi, I got a problem with fingerprint sensor since buying my phone (it was bought as used). Seller did a hard reset before selling phone claiming that fingerprint sensor was fully working. I was trying to add my fingerprint. Sometimes it worked, sometimes I saw error saying that my fingerprint sensor is not working and I should reboot my phone to fix that - of course it didn't help. Hardware test (*#06*#) sometimes showed proper version of the sensor, sometimes 0.0.0.0.
So I tested few custom roms, but it didn't fixed my problem. It actually made it worse. Before testing custom roms I was able to find 'fingerprint' app/service in all apps. I couldn't find it on custom roms so I came back to newest stock, installed all updates and updated all apps and still I can't find this app/service/whatever it is.
Is there any way to get this back or something?

If you used aosp based custom roms then they wouldn't have had the fingerprint service.

What rom should I get to make this work?

Is 5.0 G900FXXU1BOE5 stock? I got this one currently but I still can't find 'fingerprint' in all apps.

Sounds like it, try doing a full reflash.

Full reflash is wiping data in recovery then flashing ROM with odin? I did it and still nothing.
EDIT: Ok I got it now in all apps. However hwtest says fingerprint's version is 0.0.0.0 and I can't add my fingerprint in settings. Any advice?

Lost data trying to Install LeeDroids Nougat

I was on Santod040's Perfume Port 1.96.617.20 8.0_g CL801953 release-keys with the 1.85.605.8 firmware. Backed up everything in TWRP. Downloaded LeeDroids latest stable version then formatted my SD card in TWRP. Then installed LeeDroid unencrypted with MM firmware. Had no data, so i then restored my backup. to Perfume and now i get no data still.
Prefered Network is LTE/CDMA
APN is set to Verizon Internet
Not sure what else it could be

just tried flashing the 1.85.605.8 radio.... still nothing....

try setting it to global.
wiping modems might work as well but not sure, tbh.
i had to wipe mine today as i was stuck on 3g after playing with N ROMs

Tried Global and I wiped the radio then reflashed new radio and latest MM firmware.
The weird thing that worked was re formatted my SD card again then installed LeeDroids MM Rom Encyrpted. and then i got data back. Re formatted SD then installed Nougat switched to global and now i'm golden.
Thanks for suggestions though

Appreciate this heads up!
Thought I booked it, but luckily didn't.
MM firmware. Multirom.
stock VZW MM ROM, AOKP MM ROM and Leedroid N ROM. All working great, just no VoLTE or Wi-Fi calling on N ROM.

yea, i wiped radios, ruu'd.. all of the things. I couldnt get any advanced service back, new sim, ruu, radio wipe and i was good to go. My thought on it is, if people want to switch CID, install stock nougat, turn advanced calling off prior, i think it will make life easier in the long run

Good thinking. ATM, it may be worth the trouble (depending on how long Verizon will be :laugh since the only thing that really are giving up is HD Calling, and I haven't personally confirmed that I have it working on my current setup anyway. Honestly though, I am very happy where I am right now, N is running great and a reboot brings my to stock ROM if in a quick pinch thanks to multirom (how is this the first device I've used this on:silly

Boost Mobile only working with stock ROM?

Hey, I'm using Boost Mobile and I've been trying to update to a custom ROM, but every time I do so it's just detected as a Sprint SIM card, which forces me to have 3G. If I reflash a stock ROM, support comes right back. I've already tried backing up my EFS and persist with the stock ROM, then restoring it after installing a custom ROM, and nothing changes. My IMEI is still intact, so why would a custom ROM not let me use Boost? Does it have something to do with APNs?

I remember using a Virgin Mobile phone with custom ROMs back in the day. If I remember correctly, you had flash a separate file after the ROM to get LTE support. I can't remember exactly what it fixed, but I do know it did the same thing you're experiencing if you didn't. Sorry I can't be more help.
