[Q] Confused S4 mini - General Questions and Answers

i will try to explain this as best as possible. i own a SM-S890L, S4 mini from straight talk. It is an LTE just like the 9195, successful root via cfauto for 9195.. I backed up stock rom. running cm 11. No firmware listed for 890L. Pull battery the FCCID xxxxI257. That is the sprint/att model. during my flash confusion i formatted the phone and lost my original back up. The phone works more or less like an ipod atm. I cannot make or receive calls, USSD codes do not work. Any help would be appreciated, thanks

[Q] GT-P5100 no Dialer problem

Hi,
I've bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 with the 3G version, but the Israeli official importer decided to take out the phone capabilities in order to avoid paying taxes for a Mobile Phone device (They claim it's now only a Tablet).
The device is 100% 3G capable, including all the hardware needed to make phone calls and send/receive SMS. They claim to have taken out only some software files... Now I can use the SIM only to use wireless networking. I've tried to install the Dialer One application, but got an error message stating that my device is not supported.
Can anyone please help me with restoring the device to its original phone mode?
Thank you!
Dan.
Well you could try a custom rom? It may work

I rather not use a custom rom... I think it's actually much simple - Some files are missing, and if I knew which and where to put those, problem solved.
I know all Israeli P5100 suffer from this strange issue, so I guess there must be a quick solution.
Thanks.

I also had the same problem. I rooted my tab and got another stock rom( not israeli). I think all the other stock roms have dialer.
But remember to do a backup if you want to change rom. I did not do backup( forget) and now i do not have hebrew on my tablet.
If you want my advise do not change rom.... you will never use the phone on tablet ...trust me on that.
hi there i want to use my p5100 as aphone insted of the "note" so please

write us how to ....
I *think* that official cm10.1 has support for using the p5100 as a phone, and I know it has hebrew. I suggest you try it.

Rooting Galaxy S Blaze 4g

Hi so im looking to root my galaxy s blaze to get rid of some of these developer apps . im still running 2.3.6 with UVLF5 and need a guide on how to do this . Obviously never rooted before so appreciate all the help i can get Thanks
Yes ive looked around for a guide but as beastmodes states "anyways here goes the step by step assuming that you have a Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4g T769 and are on ICS
UVLH5 firmware." which im not running UVLH5
Cant find a post thats current for rooting
I am also using UVLF5
I am also using UVLF5 as well and I really need at least ICS OFFICIAL or Kitkat CM11 I need this rooted in my life!!!

OP,
I am in the same ballpark too. I would love to get a new phone, but I can't justify the cost! I pay 3.95 / mnth to T-Mobile for insurance so I am hoping just to replace my T769 with a new one every year. I don't root my phone because it makes it somewhat unstable, so if you want to go to CM11 which is much better than 2.3.6, it will just make your Blaze unstable. The GPS won't work all the time, and the phone won't work right. I does weird things with the display occasionally. I have run on Gingerbread until I get a new phone. I have tried to save Baseband, ( the efs folder ) and upgrade to CM11 then replace it with the old Baseband. It didn't seem to work for me, at least in "About Phone" on CM11 Baseband Version was "Unknown" which is probably a bad thing.
If they could clear the "efs" folder issue when you backup, that would be great. For now I use MyBackup "free" and backup the Apps and Data. Every month or so, I backup and factory reset and restore to clean everything out.

PLEASE HELP Verizon to Pageplus Carrier Flash Broken

Hey everyone! Less than 3 weeks ago I had my Verizon Galaxy S3 flashed to Pageplus remotely for $40. I did my research and from what I could tell running custom roms should work if they are for the SCH-i535. I rooted, put TWRP recovery on and flashed nightlies of cm11. Sure enough nothing worked so I flashed my nandroid backup of stock 4.1.2 and still nothing works. I currently cannot afford another flash and I am in dier need of my phone this weekend. Is there anyone that can please help me?
Btw I checked in about phone and my phone number changed so the flash has to be broken. After hours of searching and concluding I was safe to flash I am very disappointed, but I really need my phone and would ve just fine on oem 4.1.2.
Thanks!
UPDATE! Did it myself

[Q] Advice plz Re flashed ROM on S4 (baseband problem)

I'd like some advice please on what to do next. I rooted then flashed my Samsung S4 with a new ROM named Imperium v16.1. Everything is fine except the classic issue of having little to no data connectivity. Wireless is fine and when people try to ring me it's fine. I try to ring out though I have to go into and exit airplane mode.
This is the first time I've flashing an android handset so I definitely put myself in the n00b category.
I'm at the stage that I just don't care what ROM I have I just need data connectivity to work again. Yes I was probably stupid it try it but you know what it's like. We all want to experiment!
I guess I have two questions. If I install another ROM will I just have the same problem? Also, from my research, I get the impression that the problem is that my handset's modem drivers/baseband(?) don't match the ROM. Is that accurate/likely?
Any advice or simple background into what's going on would be grand!!
Thanks community!

Your stock firmware was the outdated Jellybean 4.2.2. Flash latest stock firmware from HERE and you'll be able to use newer custom roms. And free user can cload with 300kb/s, don't be scared by the 15kb/s.
Thank you. I've got the download.. I'll give it a go this evening after work.
(wow the copy of Odin I picked up is full of bloatware.. Wonder if the source I got it from was a bit dodge)
That has worked beautifully! Thank you very much.
Gosh, I had forgotten how bloaty and boring the stock ROM is.
