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.

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.

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?

EDIT: thread closed
The CPU in my Samsung Galaxy S4 is overheating and is killing the battery. When I turn the phone on it says Samsung Custom. I took it to the ATT Service Center and the guy did a reflash of the phone with the factory system which he said should have gotten rid of the Samsung Custom when I turn it on but it didn't and the CPU still showed 99% just like before. The guy told me that I need to get a new phone soon because the CPU will kill the battery and cause it to explode but the phone is out of warranty and is not eligible for an upgrade and told me the out of warranty options which I can't afford right now. The phone has already been replaced once and it has not even been a years since it was replaced and am really angry that it is already having problems. He also told me that I could find good deals for new phones online and that they would give me a new SIM Card for free but when I looked online everything was 400-500 dollars. Does anyone have any ideas on a way I could possibly fix my old one and why the Samsung Custom is not going away even after ATT factory reset it? I think it might me part of the problem.
Hi,
Thanks for using XDA assist.
I assume you are using the AT&T variant of the s4, am I correct.
If so, please create a XDA account and post here:

Hi there,
I have rooted my S7 Edge 935A from AT&T, but in a cursory survey of the popular rom alternatives, it's not obvious to me which(if any) I can install on this phone. I see a lot of "for exynos only" in the fine print. All I'm really after is a rom that is free of software updates from the creepy people at AT&T. After I rooted the phone, mandatory updates(which I don't want anyway) from AT&T crash it, and I end up having to do a factory reset. Any advice?
Thanks,
Matt
