hi, i've got a phone, samsung galaxy s4 (32gb) and i've been using it without any issues for months, but recently it just stoped recieving or making calls.
on the notification bar it say "no registed network". I tooked it to a sansung center after changing my sim card, to eliminate the possibility of the issue be on the sim or network operator, and there they told me there was something wrong with my IMEI.
I checked it and this is the number that appears when I type "*#06#' : 004999010640000/01
as you see, this is is wrong, and its nothing like the IMEI number that is on the back of the celphone. the thing is that that happened by itself, I haven't done anything different from calling, texting and occasionally gaming. at the samsung center from my town they apparently didint know what to do... can anybody help me?

I was looking for Samsung Galaxy S3 to use on Straight Talk. It was for the nice lady who works the phones out my place of employment.
I found a great deal on craigslist, US Cellular Samsung Galaxy S3 (SCH-530R) I check the ESN, its not stolen.
I use the Straight Talk BYOP Finder tool to check compatibility. It tells me as what I learn later to be a "generic CDMA message" that it spits out for every CDMA ESN saying it will work with a network access code
The phone is not compatible they say, they don't care their tool didn't even get me some McDonalds before it ****ed me.
What can I do with this phone? US Cellular is more expensive than most plans around here at least and there is no US Cellular store within 100 miles.
Thank you for any time you spend here, you're all given a limited amount of time on this earth and you're spending some of it helping a stranger with a phone problem. Thank you. Happy Newyears!
Hi,
I can't find anything relevant on XDA for your issue that has a solution. If your phone supports the radio bands on straight talk, it should be possible. Not sure if you need to sim unlock the device also.

Anyone knows about how to get an international firmware for "Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9507V, China Unicom". i bought the phone in China and there are few things for which i want to change the software to any international one.
Some of the issues are,
Can't install Google play or store
Can't install Samsung Keyboard
Only have 3 languages, Chinese, Korean and English
And there is another problem with the phone, i.e. the screen flickering issue. i searched the internet, a lot of S4 users are complaining about it. My S4 flickers only while calling or receiving a call in GSM, when the signals are low and the flickering is just like when a magnet is brought near a TV.
Any solutions... I will be thankful....

So my issue with my phone is extremely complicated. I had an account with ATT last year but I canceled my plan with them after my ex broke my phone which caused me to get a new phone and they charged me way more than they said. So just recently I went to get the screen fixed. Now that its fixed, I have forgot what the pin is. Here is where it gets tricky. My phone is not linked to findmymobile nor is it linked to my google AND USB debugging is not on the phone. I really dont want to do a hard reset because I need the messages for court issues with custody/divorce. IF I have to do a hard reset, is there a way to obtain all my lost data? incudling apps because I had to use SMS Backup to move my messages on here because my phone slowed down from so many messages.

Hello, my wife has a Samsung S4 mini GT-19195 from France.
I purchased a wireless prepaid micro sim card 3GB plan data communications only, from Yodobashi Camera Store in Osaka, Japan
I believe to have entered the correct settings but I can’t seem to connect.
I have inserted that same card into my Samsung note 2 and I can easily connect for data.
My questions are:
- Would anybody know if the Samsung S4 mini specs are compatible with Japan?
- I purchased and registered both sim cards under the same credit card name.
Would that be conflicting?
I am not very knowledgeable for techs things I’d really appreciate to be pointed in the right direction in search for answer
Thanks!
