I have a question, I recently bought a Sprint Galaxy Note 5 and I had it unlocked and I'm currently using MetroPCS on it with no problems. I have the device rooted and have custom TWRP on it. I am new to all this and basically my question is when I downloaded the XDA app it identifies my phone as a T-Mobile Galaxy 5? So what I'm asking is 1 are the custom roms carrier specific? And 2 does putting another carrier on the phone change the phone? I tried putting the sick as hell ROM on last night. It installed okay but then got stuck into boot loop. Luckily I had to stock firmware. flashed it odin3 and I had to re root the phone. I want to add a custom ROM but don't know which one to pick for my Sprint Galaxy Note 5 can anybody help me with figuring this out?

Yes it does you are not suppose to do that. You need to flash a custom rom that is compatible with ur build or version..

Hi,
I am planning to get this phone from a friend. It is the S2 From Rogers. Couple of questions:
1. Im getting it for $160 CDN. Good deal? No contract, whatever and in 9/10 condition
2. Is this phone really that bad compared to S2 i9100 which I had before?
3. Can I flash the AT&T ROMs here without a hitch on the rogers S2?
Thanks
Make sure it's the SGH-i727R rather than just the S2.
Only one I can answer is 3 - Rogers users here have not reported any issues.

According to Wikipedia, Rogers only sells 2 models:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And I do not think they sell "Just the S2" because i9100 is out of question
could someone please help?

Yes, I know. It has a keyboard. Do you mind answering my other 3 questions please?
If it has a physical keyboard, it's not the i727, which means it's not the same as the AT&T version.

This is my APN settings page. I have T-Mobile but the APN always defaults to the METROPCS one. It works fine but I have slower speeds and less LTE availability than when I manually switch to the T-Mobile one... I'm on Paranoid Android. My mom's nexus 5 is still stock and has only the T-Mobile one, but my dad's phone, running Cyanogenmod 11 Installer Edition has the MetroPCS one... Why is it there only in the custom ROMs? And how do I set the T-Mobile one as default?
Thanks!

To clarify: it resets to the MetroPCS one on every boot

Remove the APN and it won't set it to it.
Is there anything to worry about if I delete the MetroPCS APN?

There shouldn't be, unless you're actually using MetroPCS.

Hi
I recently unrooted my Galaxy Tab 2 with an official Samsung 4.0.2 ROM.
I'm quite happy with the ROM, and have noticed that when I connect the Tablet to my PC and start up Kies, I receive an Update request.

What do these mean?
PDA:LE2 / CSC:LE1 (XSA)
PDA:MH2 / CSC:MH1 (XSA)
If this is an update from Android 4.0.2 to 4.2.2, how do I get around it?
I've read about other guys with the 4.2.2 update for this tablet, and they say it is very slow. I do not want this update.
Hi there,
Thanks for using XDA Assist.
Yes this is an update for Android 4.2.2. If you do not want it, click on Cancel
Thanks, is there anyway to speed up the tablet without rooting it again?
Or do you know of a Rom that is better and faster than the cygenmod?

1. Nothing AFAIK except reducing the animations/transitions in the developer options.
2. Yes of course but I can only suggest you to have a look at the Development forums of your device: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-2/10-inch-development (SlimLP, Candy and OmniROM should work fine).
Thanks, but which one wouldn't reccommend will run the quickest and smoothest ?

idk since I don't have the same device. You can ask in the Q&A forum though: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-2/help
Other users will probaly tell you that you have to flash all roms to make your own opinion.
I recently bought an s6 but I found when going in details of antutu that the brand is verizon like the screenshot

Well after checking the version in download mode i found that it is g920v but the phone has g920f on the back does this mean that the fw is of verizon or the other way around?
Now i know that my phone started out as a G920v and was rooted and modified to make it look like the international G920F
this sucks, anyways can i flash the g920f roms on this one? if yes can you guys give some guides PLZ reply!

I think it's G920V. Download Phone INFO Samsung, and look for the model in it.
yes it is the g920v i've been scammed im so angry right now! any solutions guys?
I am on the same boat. ..I bought this phone in Australia from eBay and they gave me 920v instead of 920f. I did bit Google and read somewhere that you need to use custom ROM for your model only. Though you can use ROM of different baseband.
My baseband ends in BOK7 and it seems they don't have updates available. I m stuck on 5.1.1 I just don't know if I flash ROM would it relock to Verizon?

Have you tried following the guides?
Safely convert regions (includes T-Mobile) as well as restore the ability to use OOS12 after using Indian MSM to recover from a brick (Windows only)
It seems lots of us have had to use the India 9 Pro MSM to recover our devices and in the process, we lose the ability to go back to OOS12 or ROMs based on that firmware because the touchscreen stops working and also trying to convert T-Mobile...

Oh my God. This got interesting.
What the hell is going on here?!!!
Its clearly a stolen phone.
I wonder how though. Why did the OP use the 2nd guy's photo from Facebook, and how did the 2nd guy come to know about it? Looks to me they were both looking for the same solution for the same phone.
Its probably the same person. Zgenumem is also a brand new member.
Hey OP you cant unlock it without running out your tmobile contract, but since you dont have tmobile that doesnt matter.
You can convert it to global A11, but there is zero way you can get it sim unlocked without tmo.
