Won't Activate Mobile Data (Sprint)

Hey all. I flashed my first rom today and its just stuck on "activate mobile data service". If I press skip, it would be able to make calls but no 3g data. I took out the sim card and still no luck. There is no APN settings on the mobile options. Not sure what to do here.

Call Sprint (using a phone other than your Nexus 5) and ask them to re-provision your data. This happens quite frequently on other devices also after flashing a new ROM with Sprint service.

Just keep in mind that neither Google or Sprint have to support the custom ROM. While they may not know that you are on the custom ROM, I would just put it back to stock and see if it work first.

I found the fix. There's a flashable apn zip for sprint that got me data.

I have the same problem
Hi guys I have the same problem. My sprint Galaxy s4 had a custom rom installed,and sprint told me I cannot activate my phone because of this. Anyhow I installed the factory rom on it. After that they activated it for me, I'm wondering if I can root it again and flash an custom rom again. Please someone help. Would it affect my phone service.

Widget locker working in 4.4.1?

Anyone else having an issue with Widget locker, using Dalvik - since 4.4.1 update?
I'm using a deodexed ROM but not sure that it's a custom ROM issue per se.
The issue is that the WL lock screen no longer appears. When opening WL via the app icon in the app drawer, it prompts to "complete action using" and lists browsers or Play. There is clearly something not right, including after a full wipe.
Anyone else?

Doesn't work on 4.4.1
I ttried to get an older version but only found 1.2.9 which works but is barely usable.

Same issue here

I have the same problem. I've tried uninstalling and restoring app+data from my Tibackup with lots of reboots in between, but no luck so far.

At least we know

Yeah. I emailed the dev with the details I had, and promptly restored my /system and /boot from backup. Now widgetlocker is back to its former glory. I just don't want to use a phone without widgetlocker. Much less useful... When he updates widgetlocker, I'll restore the backups I have of 4.4.1.

Root without Wipe

Is there a way to root my Nexus 5 without wiping the entire device? I've been looking around and all roads lead to unlocking the boot loader with adb, which wipes the device.
I remember on my GS2 & GS3 I could insert root into stock with just a couple of files, no flashing or adb.
Any help is appreciated.

Fastboot, you use fastboot to unlock the bootloader and flash the custom recovery. And no there is no way without unlocking the bootloader. The reason unlocking the bootloader wipes the user data is for security so that someone can't steal the phone and then unlock it in order to steal your data.

Chromecast Mirroring with Rooted MAXX 4.2.2

Hi guys,
Iam trying to get the screen mirroring enabled on myAXX but it turns out that the Mirror Enabler app only works on KitKat. I am not willing to give up my root access since alot of my daily apps use it. What options do i have?
PS: I have disabled the apps on the droid that are used for OTA updates.
Thanks for reading.
Regards.

I think as far as full display mirroring goes, you're outta luck.
A lot of third party apps can mirror content (photos, videos, audio, etc) to a Chromecast on any +4.0 device.
Also, you are aware that there is a root method for 4.4 right? (not the latest ota, and still not compatible with the mirroring)

Go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/har...experimental-enable-mirroring-device-t2812193
That worked on my rooted max, should work on yours. I'm on 4.4.4 rooted and unlocked bootloader. I would imagine it works on all as long as you have root.

If not mistaken due to build prop data being changed with out WP being disabled you lose it working after reboot.
I can confirm full mirroring with audio does work with 4.4.4.
I too am unlocked and rooted.

True, if write protection is not disabled it would need to be ran again after reboot. But honestly, how often do people reboot their phones? Personally the only time I reboot mine is when installing an xposed module or something like that which requires reboot.

Thanks for the reply. I was sort of expecting that ..
With regards to the knowledge of a 4.4 update that retains root, no I wasn't aware of that. I've had a look in the forum and there doesn't seem to be any pros or cons related to this update so i'll be sticking with what i have working. Besides, nowhere does it say how to update to 4.4 while keeping root.

Thanks but my 4.2.2 version is what holding me back from using that method as it requires KitKat.
Sent from my XT1080 using XDA Free mobile app

i think you cant do this because it needs some apis from kitkat

You can update to 4.4 19.5.3 and still retain full root and Wp off. That will put you in the same spot you are in now but with working cast. I made a guide for this wayy back when here it is
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2616104
Use that to a T and youll be fine.

Thanks for the info but didn't the 4.4 build have the potential to brick your phone? I vaguely recall moto pulling an update from ota, can't remember if it was 4.4 though. Furthermore, are there any issues with this build, reboots, poor battery, screen issues and the likes.

I have applied that patch several times with no brick.

Thanks for confirming. I've followed the guide (excellent guide btw) and successfully upgraded to 4.4 with root.
Installed MirrorEnabler v4, though without success
FYI for anyone reading this.

That is odd. Which 4.4 build are you on? If 19.5.3 try it with 19.6.3. I don't use the app myself so I'm just guessing.

I do know with root on 4.4.4 it does work. Even though I am unlocked as long as you only do a soft reboot it should work. Not sure but it may need to have the update Chromecast app installed as well that has the cast screen option in the settings. Mirror app prior to v4 required sqlite root since it changes a value in the build prop if I remember right.
But I maybe of on that part been a bit since I did mine back on version 2 I think it was. Any how I do know the droid ultra and x line it does work.
If you still have issues I suggest you head you over to that thread for better detailed help it very active since the day it started those guys there are way more knowledgeable then I on that topic

I'm on 19.5.3. Will share some logs and tests with the MirrorEnabler author and wait for a reply.
Sent from my XT1080 using XDA Free mobile app

I tried all versions with no success
Just confirmed latest version of Chromecast app in the store and noticed an updated "What's new" section saying that mirroring works from KitKat 4.4.2 MR1.
If I get the unlock code and successfully unlock my boot loader would I then be able to get 4.4.2 on my MAXX with root?
Sent from my XT1080 using XDA Free mobile app

No 4.4.2 software for max unless it's a ROM. Latest is 4.4.4.
CC software for the phone is 1.7.4 to mirror. Had to get a down load from the other thread or in that section. Should be able to get it to mirror I would think before updating to 4.4.4.
To keep full root with w/p off you need to be unlocked and replace the recovery with a custom one if you goto to 4.4.4 at this time.

Still digging
Chromecast uses WebRTC to stream content using VP8 and H.264 video compression. Can't find any documentation with reference to VP8 encoding being supported by the MSM8960DT, the Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro, which is the same as the SoC found in the 2013 Nexus 7 (has official screen mirroring support).

One you unlock (correct me if I'm wrong, but I understood you are trying to get unlock code), you can OTA up to 4.4.4 or even install it via TWRP as I did and still have root. Enabler works on mine, 4.4.4 unlocked/rooted/wp off.

Thanks. Do you happen to remember if you updated from 19.5.3 directly to 4.4.4, and was it using stock recovery?

AT&T LG G2 D800 baseband issue

Hi everyone!
I used my unlocked LG G2 with a T-Mobile SIM card for a few days with the stock rom and the radio signal was fine. But then as it looked terrible and the performance was not so good, I decided to install the Cyanogenmod 12 nightly. After a couple hours, I realized the gps and gyroscope sensors wouldn't work, something widely known about this cell phone. I found out that flashing a different baseband would fix it, and after I did that the sensors started working again, but the signal was always intermittent and my 3g would suck.
Then I tried to flash the original baseband again because I'd rather not to rotate it than have a bad connection, however, it didn't work: the sensors don't work and the signal is still terrible.
I ran an app called Network Signal on my friend's cell phone, which is the same as mine with the stock rom. There's a tab called SERVICE'S ADVANCED that says OK on his and NO SERVICE on mine.
Does anyone have any solution or advice? Attached is my information on baseband and rom.
Thank you!!!
Sent from my LG-D800 using XDA Free mobile app

The problem is that you didn't know that Lollipop ROMs need the modem from JB 10C or 10O. Your modem is the KK version from 20C.
As for the signal I'm not sure what to suggest because the performance is bad in that regard. Sometimes it will drop to 2G in areas with strong LTE or Hspa+. I'm also T-mobile.

I tried installing those but they didn't work either. Would you have the links? Maybe I downloaded the wrong ones.
Also, are you using lollipop on your g2 right now?

This is the list I found: downloads. codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G2/G2_modems (delete the space between downloads. and codefi)
I tried the 10D and 10O, but there's no 10C for the D800.

Sorry, forgot my charger at home & couldn't respond back. Anyway, it's 10D and not 10C, I keep getting all the modems mixed up. I actually reverted back to JB because I'm giving the phone to someone that doesn't like LP. Before I had vanir (LP) with the JB modem 10O.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451426
If the JB & KK modems don't fix your issue, then something is wrong with your G2, or those features are currently broken in that CM12 nightly. One thing you could try is returning to stock, then root after going back to the official ATT firmware. Trying another ROM besides cm would be s good idea too.

Would you mind running this app called Network Signal and sending me a screenshot? I want to compare yours to mine. You just have to swipe left to open the menu and then click Signal Check:

See, that's my problem. The textbox "Service Advanced" says FAIL and I think that's due to wrong modem. I'll try to go back to stock and try something else. You're using the baseband that ends with 84, right?
