No service issue (baseband issue)

I have sent my phone to rma twice with no positive results. I'm having issues connecting to the network. Every time I put my sim card in my wife's phone it shows no service where it should show t-mobile.
I have the same rom on both phones. I have the July 15 baseband. Please help. If I call LG again is there any possibility they send me a replacement phone?

Might just be an issue with your sim card. Have you contacted T-Mobile about it? That's where I'd start.

Test Version Of GSIII?

Hey everyone, I recently traded my Galaxy Nexus for the GS3 and normally, I get right down to the rooting/unlocking/flashing process, however one thing has been holding me back. The gentleman that I traded my device with worked directly for Samsung and said that the GSIII that he was giving to me, was in fact a development testing device only given out to employees. I was wondering if there is a way to verify this as I know that this could be a potential gateway to future discoveries if this is in fact the case. If any of you have thoughts on this then please share. I've been itching to scratch this flashing bug of mine -_-

Could you post a screen shot of your device "about section"

Doesn't look any different than mine at first glance.
I hope you didn't pay extra

Alright cool man thanks lol I didn't pay anything actually, It was a straight up trade Nexus for Galaxy S 3

This is what a test phone from HTC looks like.

If this person's claims are true, you should go to the IRC and chat with the devs there.
They could possibly find useful information before you get to using your device as normal- again, assuming this is true.

Yeah I think I'll do that. Will keep you guys posted if anything interesting comes from this

That is a VERY test device. I had a few pre-release rezounds that did not look like that. Also I had an inc4g that was normal

How do you become a phone tester? I've always wondered because that would be sick (I'm assuming that's how you got them).

Need phone outta contract

How can I get my phone meid unlocked so that I can send it to beigephone and get it flashed to page plus. This DFB didn't pay her bill so I'm stuck with a bolt I can't do anything with but Wi-Fi use any ideas

I guess is that it's not possible fml
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda app-developers app

i have no intentions of flashing to another carrier, but several thunderbolt users i've seen have been able to flash to pageplus. you may need CDMA workshop if you want to do it yourself, i think CDMA workshop is around $100.00. there's a free demo version too, but i'm not sure that the demo would be sufficient to do this.

I'm not sure that you can 'unlock' an meid yourself, that's something the carrier has to do (with stolen phones and whatnot)
So if it's on her account, she'll have to get in touch with them herself and give her IMEI number and account details. They should then give an unlock code to make the phone usable again.
If that IMEI number has been flagged (as stolen or possibly delinquent) even an unlocking service won't be able to help you until the carrier clears it.

What you are looking for is to CLEAR the MEID/IMEI so that it can be used on another account.
You can't do that. Only the carrier can. Until the account is settled/paid with the carrier, that MEID/IMEI will be associated/assigned to that account and therefore can't be used on a different account.
Since PagePlus uses VZW towers/service (to my knowledge), you're stuck until the old account issues are settled.

Yup I'm stuck with Wi-Fi only thunderbolt this sux I guess she won in the long run although I have seen some nice prepaid phone's I seen an HTC one and some evo 4g's that have ics and are affordable virgin mobile and boost have unlimited data

So someone else didn't pay the bill for your phone and you're mad about it? Why don't you pay for your own phone?

Says they want you to do this for third party marketing and yet the next sentence says Verizon will not give out your information outside of Verizon?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

I find it rather disgusting that verizon offers you a coupon for your personal information. Google just invited our family into a similar thing but they mailed 5 real dollars. And you get a $100 gift card per month if you let them install a router in your house to track data usage.
So how does that wonderful coupon look now? And to think your info is worth hundreds if not thousands of dollars to them.

Hello and welcome to the data mining that is as old as the internet. Nothing new here other than giving you the choice to opt out.
I hope that none of the people here on their soap boxes, complaining about this ever use Facebook... they do this ALL the time and rarely let you know... let alone opt out.

If they traded whoring out your info for a discount off your bill or a upgrade in half the time that would be better than a ****ing coupon. Pricks.
Better and funnier than your tapatalk signature

I'm just shocked that people pretend to be shocked over this.

Thinking of dumping my S4 and getting this since they can't seem to unlock the Bootloader...
