Hey Everybody,
I'm new to the whole rooting process, which I did fine on Saturday the 4th of October 2014. Today (October 8th 2014) I tried to install Cyanogen using the installer, it said it worked, but when my phone rebooted it was in the original version of touchwhiz that came with my Galaxy S3 SGH-I747 Rogers version. I wanted to get my files back, so I went into CWM and tried to recover, which didn't work. I tried again and again and it finally loaded my apps, but I had no service and I was spammed with "failure to load .gapps.google" or something like that. I went into CWM and wiped cache, tried again, same issue. I then wiped everything, went back into it and it still was NOT working. What do I do? I have no service at all!
EDIT: REALIZED THIS IS WRONG FORUM. (SORRY IM NEW) I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO GO TO DELETE IT SO IF AN ADMIN CAN, THANKS

Hello XDA:
I have been having an issue with my Samsung Galaxy s3 ever since returning to Canada.
To provide some background information, I was living in the UK for a year and I accidentally bricked my phone. It was a hard brick and barely recoverable. Thankfully, I was able to find a technician/electrical engineer who had the appropriate packages and know-how to rescue the phone, and he reinstalled a stock Canadian ROM with Android Version 4.4. Or so it seemed. I will include the information below but what was odd about this was that it came with the stock apps for both TELUS and Rogers installed.
Anyway, here is my mobile information following the fix:
Model #: SGH -i747M
Android Version: 4.4.2
Baseband Version: I747MLUFNF2
Kernal Version: 3.4.0-1784548, [email protected] #1
Build #: KOT49H.I747MVLUFNF2
Following the technician's fix, I had full capabilities with my phone while still in the UK. Without issue. However ever since returning to Canada, I have not been able to connect to the data network. Even though the data connection setting is active and I am most certainly in range of my mobile provider. I have also confirmed with TELUS that I have active data allocation, and thus it is not an issue on their end.
Please let me know if anyone is able to direct me to a thread that may provide a solution to this. Is it an issue with the radio? I may attempt to flash a custom ROM if all else fails, however I am apprehensive to try this again as I messed my phone up the first time; it has been some time since I did this.
Anyway, I look forward to hearing from someone.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
In settings, mobile networks, access point names, be sure yours match the first set of settings in this thread,
> AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III > AT&T Galaxy S III General > TELUS APN settings - November 6, 2012
If that doesn't help, or you need more help with anything... Please post in your devices q&a section...
> AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III > AT&T Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Good luck!
Thanks!
Hey KJ;
Just wanted to let you know that I entered the APN information in manually, and the data connection worked!
Thanks so much for referring me to that information, I would have never thought to have set those settings manually (sadly).
I really appreciate your help!
Have a great day.
Bryan

Sprint Galaxy S4 (SPH-L710)
Followed tutorial at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2415587
to unlock SIM for GSM.
Experienced some difficulties on MDC flashing back to MF9, especially using links provided in the tutorial.
WiFi stopped functioning, couldn't make calls, and camera stopped working. Decided to switch from Stock to Cyanogenmod to see if it would help.
Used CWM, installed Cyanogenmod 10
WiFi worked again, Camera worked again, pretty much everything functioning normally, except:
Can't make calls, watch videos, do anything that produces or receives audio.
If I try to listen to music, I get errors saying the program is ending, especially saying DSP sound manager has stopped
Decided to try upgrading, upgraded to (currently running) 11-20141013-NIGHTLY-jflte
Android 4.4.4
Baseband: L720PUEMJA
Kernel version
3.4.104-Cyanogenmod-g52b4b50
[email protected] #1
Still can't listen to music, make calls, watch videos, record audio notes, use soundhound/shazam, the list goes on.
Basically, from what I can tell, the software just has no way to access the microphone and/or speakers, and won't allow me to do anything with the phone that uses them. I should add that everything else functions normally: SMS, internet, everything, all function as normal even on a GSM SIM card that I am now using in the phone.
Anyone have any ideas of how I can restore audio functionality to my phone? Obviously I know I did something along the way that affected this, but I'm not sure if it's with the modem, software, etc... Any and all help will be appreciated. If you need any more information I'm happy to provide it.
Hi,
Are you sure it's an L710? Cause that's an S3. If it is an S3 and you flashed anything made got an S4...that could easily explain your issues.
Can you confirm whether you have an S4 or an L710 S3 before I point you in a direction for help?
Thanks!

Sorry, yes it's an S4, SPH-L720.
In a bit of a hurry, so I typed 710 on accident.
To the best of my knowledge, I have flashed all S4-intended software to the phone.
In that case, I would suggest maybe you return to stock with Odin. If you need help, you can ask here,
> Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 > Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [NOOB FRIENDLY] Sprint Galaxy S4 Questions Thread - ALL Are Welcome!
And here is a very useful thread, your firmware for flashing with Odin is here as well, and much more...

Thanks for your help!
One more question before I begin my journey back into stock ROM/Firmware:
When I return to Stock, do you think I will lose functionality on my GSM SIM card?
I've been reluctant to return to Stock mostly because I'm afraid it will "undo" the GSM/carrier unlock, which is basically the reason I started this process in the first place. I'm Studying abroad currently and for obvious reasons trying to keep the phone functional on a European (GSM) network.
You'd have to ask on the first thread I linked. ?
Thank you. Thread closed.
Please Help Guys, any help would be appreciated. Please if you could reply ASAP it would be great.
Ok so i have a Galaxy S4 At&t and I rooted my phone with safestrap installed. It has a locked bootloader, running android 4.4.2.
I decided to put the Hyperdrive RLS19 on my phone and I have an NC1 phone. I tried putting it in my stock rom, therefore I wiped the data and everything and installed the rom, I completed with the installation, but after I installed the rom i realized that my wifi, 4g Lte data, did not work. Also, i realized that my root disappeared and not only that, I also lost my safestrap recovery. So I thought that the first thing I should do is to root it, just like last time I used Towelroot by geohot and when i clicked make it rain, it said that i needed to ensure my internet connection. Which means that i needed wifi to get root and to get wifi i needed root. I even checked the build.prop file where i should put the line equals to false, but it already was false. I even restarted the phone several times but no luck.

I have a samsung galaxy s4 I337. I have tried the over the air update several times but it always stops at 27 percent and restarts my phone. Ive wiped all cache, factory reset my phone and still nothing. It is stuck on android 4.4.2 and I would like to update it to lolipop. I know that at&t has released lollipop to their samsung galaxy s4s, but I cant even get passed 4.4.2. I am decent with phones but know nothing about flashing. Can someone please give me a very detailed, step by step process on how to get lollipop on my phone? Also, is it possible to do it and not lose data? I have my things backed up but wanna make sure.
Thank you.

Can I restore an AT&T Samsung s6 that got corrupt during update and also deleted IMEI
I have a Samsung galaxy s6 that is less than 3 months old. When the newest firmware update tried to install my phone would not reboot. I have now gotten it to boot to emergency or safe mode. I have tried doing all resets, wipe cache. The IMEI is also deleted. Any ideas on what I can do to fix this issue? I am not having good luck with AT&T doing anything to help.
