[q] s5 fake :(((

hello,
I come to you for a problem on a false s5 galaxy.
I bought 2 gsm s5 false in the street I do not know ...
My configuration: the model as: gt-i9600, android 4.4.2, baseband version of i9600xxuamde, kernel number 3.4.5build JDQ39.i9600ZSUAMDF and build custom version of galaxy.20140424.a9fm.v019.
My problem is the following, the functions GPS WIFI ... are ok but when I want to make a call or I receive a call the mobile phone reboot directly.
I've already done a hard reset but still the same problem.
For the same problem when the 3g data connection is open gsm reboot without stop loop.
I can not find a custom rom for my model ...
Can you help me please??
Thank you and sorry for my english

Very annoying but in the forum galaxy s5 what can we do for you

That would be because developers buy the real official phones and not these fake ones. You will not find custom ROM's for fakes on XDA for this reason.

There won't be a custom rom for a chinese copy, they don't have sources available or anything to work with.
Maybe the phone is defective? If it's not rooted then it's quite difficult to diagnose the source of the reboot (last_kmsg would help).

What country did you get these in?

So aliens have landed on xda.

[Q] SM-T330 vs SM-T330NU - firmware

Are the firmwares for the tablets in subject interchangeable? the NU is the North American version and I'm wondering if I could flash a European version of the T330 to support mode languages. I want to add that sammobile has the firmwares listed under different codes.
Anybody knows if it is possible to flash an LTE firmware on the WIFI version of the same tablet? Thanks

I dont know, but I highly advise not install LTE on WiFi only tab, since there are hardware differences and you most likely will brick your tab

Hi,
do you've already got any further information on this? For I have the same problem: in the US we purchased a tab for my mom, but she isn't doing too well with the english UI (though she already got used to it - it's still android, after all ).
Anyway: there's also a WiFi-Version (SM-T330NZWADBT) of this tablet. Is there anywhere a firmware available for download for this particular model? And: is the firmware interchangeable in this case, as it's wifi-to-wifi straight?
Regards,

So can I install firmware from sm-t230 on sm-t230NU cause I want Polish language. or it's hidden and hidden languages are achievable with morelocale2?

"Locale More" did the job for me, all it requires is to run one adb command and it works well without root.

[SM-J5108] Convert my J5 SM-J5108 to a more usable version ? (510F ?)

Hello,
My title may not be very cler but I can't find any custom ROMs for my device the J5 SM-J5108CHM (J5 China Mobile version) I can find official firmware but I just hate the interface, I found a really good-looking ROM (VIperOS) but it was for another variant of the phone.
So my question is : can I convert this phone to some other variant with same specs ? Thanks in advance

I've got the same question but no one seems to go to this thread if anyone has an answer to this that would be very appreciated. the j5108 seems to have all the same specs as the other variants so it should work but I'm not taking any risks because this is my everyday phone.
also the china mobile os is complete rubbish use this one (im a new user so i cant post link but just search up updato (dot) com, go to search bar and search j5108, in teh filters bar up top choose hong kong and press update under the search bar)
First, install any lollipop update (if you skip straight to marshmallow you'll end up in a bootloop), and then install either OTA update (it keeps failing for people but its good if you don't want to use Odin again) or you can download the marshmallow os after you install lollipop (make sure to NOT do a factory reset etc you'll end up in a boot loop). Install MM os and boom GAPPS and everything else you'll need.

You can't. Its a different phone. Maybe you think because it says J5 chinese version that its the same thing, just different model number. There are reasons why ot has a different model number, baseband, etc... Its like you have the Samsung Galaxy S2 with exynos and the American one with SD. They are both S2, but totaly different phones.

does xda have a word cap or did my other post not post because it was long or is the image verification a post-verification. anyway, i was saying that all the j5 2016 variants are exactly the same which in theory would allow any model's OS to work on any variant. S2 isn't a great comparison because different models have different hardware while j5 2016 has different models with identical hardware. Just search up j5108 specs and j510x specs and they'll all be the same ill post back in a few weeks when I get a new battery and test out different OS (rn I'm using the stock hong kong OS). I'll try OS for different PDAs and then ill try out different models. Btw all the spec sites say the variants are compatible with Australia so I shouldn't have a problem using different models OS in Australia (meaning 4G, wifi, phone numbers etc should be fine).
Also please explain in more depth why j5 2016 variants are so different to the point that they have different model numbers (i know that sounds passive aggressive and pretend it isn't I honestly want to know). I'm super sorry if I sound like an arrogant **** that wants everything his way but the way the j5 2016 models are made they all seem identical and logically (and in theory) the other variants OS should work on the j5108. if for some reason I cant see my first reply but others can I'm so sorry for this post.

Phones today can have the same harware, same SoC, same RAM, same everything, even the same RIL preferences, but they are different models. The whole stock software was made for a specific device model. The J510FN is different than the J510H, if there was no difference why would Samsung bother to make many versions? The whole operating system, every part of it: Kernel, Apps, Recovery, Hal, Bootloader are mannualy made for a specific model number. Because of that it is hard to make a ROM that supports all of the phones in one Samsung model family lineup. You see now that by pure logic the j508 is very different from the J510FN

Upgrade Galaxy S8 Active G892A from BRC4 to BRD4

Hi guys,
I saw on AT&T site, that the new (latest) FW G892AUCS2BRD4, require previous FW "BRC5". But my current FW is G892AUCU2BRC4.
Need help to upgrade to the current version from my current. Possible or i need another (complete) FW for upgrade from BRC4?
Best regards

I got a S8 Active also and it is G892AUCS2BRE3
Just an FYI, fwiw.

Please forgive me for tagging on your post but here with an S8 Active and want to use a DeX station. My understanding is that it does not have the necessary function as part of its ROM. Is there any ports from a standard S8 or S8+ which may enable DeX functions on an S8 Active?
Thank You!

It just works out of the box or are you using a custom rom of some sort? I am about to buy the Dex Station but if the pad works I will buy that instead! Also - newer as in there is 2 different releases of the dex pad??
THanks again!

I am not running a ROM, it just works. It wouldn't make much sense if the hardware had to work with specific ROMs. So what Baseband version do you have??

My current baseband is G892USQS1AQL1 but I am about to load G892USQS3BRH2, hopefully that will work... I had simply read that the S8 Active firmware did not come preloaded with the Dex 'bits' and had seen suggestion to use system app mover to add it from S8 or S8+.

Try reinstall stock rom and update

Take a look at "Updates for Samsung - Android Update Versions"
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=samsungupdate.com
This app will get that sorted for you. Clicking advanced search allows you to search for ALL firmware. Just enter in the model number ?

This can be also faked s8. I saw many of them in german facebook market.
