I have bought a Zpad from China. The package came with the following spec:
Android 2.2, Kernel 2.6.32.9, Build Bigdroid_Froyo_20101202_100300. The problem is that all is in Chinese even the Android Market id form there.
I have tried out the (gtab.VEGAn.1.00.beta5.1.user.final.zip) that fixed everything and worked smoothly except for the following problems:
The firmware added voice calls (which i don't have)
The firmware did not detect my 3G modem (which is SonyEricsson F3307 S) and i am without 3G connectivity.
I need help to either fix the original firmware or the installed one.

Did you do a back up? if not it is almost impossible to go back with doing a nvflash of the orginal rom or the bigideas rom
You can try the gtab_tegraupdate_test3_zpad but it stuffs the camera.
Hi guys,
I know that galaxy note 10.1 n8005 does not allow phone calls. However I want to learn that this restriction is about hardware or software ? Could phone calls be activated at n8005 by installing some kind of software ?
Can you check the model number again? I've never seen a Note 10.1 with GT-N8005 model number. Lastly, is it a 3G model (i.e. have a SIM card slot)?

yes the model number is GT-N8005. This is the model which will be sold in Turkey. It has 3g support but does not allow phone calls.
Since I am a noob I can't provide you a link but this is what the Samsung Turkey website says about the product :
Platform
850 / 900 / 1 800 / 1 900 MHz (Does not support phone calls. Internet connection only)
850 / 900 / 1 900 / 2 100 MHz (Does not support phone calls. Internet connection only)

Maybe Samsung Turkey has disabled Phone access on the Note 10.1. Try asking them why. I'm not sure about this but maybe someone can upload the Phone app files for you.
Or, if you are feeling adventurous and game, make a nandroid copy of your current rom and then install a custom n8000 rom.... Just make sure that you put the nandroid backup onto an external sd card and/or backup onto a PC so you can restore if things don't work out....
Just remember this may brick your device...
By any chance is this an LTE device?
Nxxx5 model numbers seem to be Euro LTE variants...
N7005 = International LTE Note (Qcom-based)
I9305 = International LTE GS3 (exynos-based)

I am completely new to the android os therefore, these things don't make sense to me. However, at least I know what brick is :laugh:
I tought that someone from this forum may have this device but it seems that it is special for Turkey and no one has it .

It's really interesting why Samsung makes totally same two devices where one is capable to make a phone call and other cannot with same "infrastructure". Assuming both models are on same hardware, flashing a N8000 stock EU rom to N8005 should do the trick, right?
When Samsung announced Galaxy Tab (P1000), it was sold in Turkey only with a carrier (Turkcell) rom which was really unpleasant to use, so most people had switched to stock EU rom then. With this regard, N8000 rom should work on N8005...

The manager of a samsung mobile shop in Turkey claims that Samsung made this to get rid of additional taxes s to make the prices affordable. He also said that this restriction is done by changing software only, hardware of the N8000 and N8005 is the same. Flashing a N8000 stock EU rom seems logical at that sense. However, I am really new to android and have no info about these things. Moreover, risk of brick is another problem.
Can anyone send him the Phone apk if that will work?
I don't think he is rooted. How to copy and make phone.apk work?
Sent from my GT-N7000 at the corner of this rounded earth.
If stock one is not functional, try this one, but ignore the updates on the market, use "as is" otherwise may not function (at least not with my HTC Flyer)

So it means taxes with 3G and voice are different from each other... Interesting but makes sense. Some time later, I am sure some experienced guys will explain how to flash such ROMs Most of the time, if you really do not do something quite wrong, don't worry no brick...

Hello,
I bought one N 8005 yesterday, rooted, CWM loaded. Urban Rom 3.5 flashed. The phone application came but unable to make or receive phone calls. Its not a software obligation, its resctricted by Samsung via hardware I guess. Still looking for a solution but I'm hopeless. I tried dialer one apk but it did not worked too. I will flash a few more stock roms but I guess I will sell it as 2nd hand. :crying:

Hi, at one of the Turkish forums someone succeeded to activate it. After root and recovery he installed original 4.1.1 N8000 roms from xda. then he talks about something about "wipe" I dont know what it means After these steps he claims that N8005 becomes N8000

Yes I did too. With another ROM it worked as phone. The steps are as follows:
Root
CWM recovery
Nandroid backup (In case of brick or to return to original state for guarantee reasons etc.)
Make back-up your apps&data with Titanium Root (If needed)
Flash with a stock, dedoxied stock rom, don't forget to wipe, dalvik cache
Its N 8000 with phone enabled!
Nice work guys, thanks for sharing. My N8005 will arrive soon. I'll definitely try this steps but not so soon, I want to use GN stock for sometime.

Any idea if Galaxy Note 10.1 N8000 which is available in UAE with UAE ROM supports phone calls and SMS or we can buy it, root it, then insetall the euoropian ROM to be able to do that?

Help ! Persistent call connect problem & incomplete file copy/move issue in XT1033
I am facing network issues on my dual sim moto g (xt1033) almost since I bought i.e even when my device was on jellybean & now when I am on KitKat.
The issues I face are:
i. People are unable to reach my number/contact me almost 90-95% of the time. They tell me u were unreachable.
ii. Sometimes when they call, my phone rings for 3-4 times(only hearable to me) but the caller didn't hear any sound of the call getting placed/connected and phone ringing.
iii. while browsing data(both 2g/3g), network frequently drops. it doesn't show that it dropped. I get to know when the respective app shows that you have an internet connection failure (for e.g facebook)
Things I have tried to resolve but failed:
i. Flashed revolution g v3 brazilian stock rom and reflashed indian radio/baseband to overwrite it. got both sims working but "call connect" issue did not go.
ii.Swapped sims on both the slots. I use a BSNL 3g sim & an airtel 2g one. I noticed after swapping/may be restarting calls getting connected a bit sooner/proper than they did before. but a day after again same issue & it just doesn't seem to go.
Can anybody please tell what can be done to resolve this? Is this a hardware/software issue ? I get it irrespective of data switched on/off.
If everything fails I have no option but to convert my asian dual sim moto g into a european single sim xt 1032 as explained here http://forum.technofaq.org/discussion/53/moto-g-xt1033-turn-your-xt1033-dual-sim-into-an-xt1032-single-sim/p1 Since it's system version is 174.44.9, I believe it contains the network fix.
My current device stats:
Bootloader unlocked, rooted, stock indian firmware with philz cwm recovery
system version : 171.44.31.falcon_umtsds.AsiaRetail.en.03
Build number : KXB20.25-1.31
Use 2 sims with both active
Update: Jun 1 2014
Have relocked the bootloader & downgraded to jellybean, still face the network issue
Facing a copy/move issue these days
After selecting all the files in the phone explorer (mtp mode) & trying to copy them to my win8.1 notebook the process automatically terminates/window vanishes midway. There's no error/warning thrown but all files do not get copied. I have tried to do the same thing but failed everytime. I tried to copy 6GB of files/folders. Everytime only 4GB gets copied & remaining(some folders with data) left out. why is this happening ? is this because they are being copied in mtp mode ?

Since you've already unlocked the bootloader, try CM11 or any other ROMS. Let me know how it works out. I'm facing the same issue but don't want to unlock bootloader as I might not be able to return it.

@rajibie & @major9 Thank You for taking the time to reply. The first thing I did after unlocking the bootloader & rooting was install CM snapshot m5 . But unfortunately I wasn't able to hear the person on the other end clear enough. sound was too low. Therefore I returned to stock rom.

Dear # MotoG customers, we’ve uncovered an activation
problem with some #MotoG devices sold in India as they
have been shipped with IMEI numbers that are not yet

We are working around the clock to resolve this. If you are

I haven't received any email. My device was purchased in feb.
Hello all and thanks for reading. I am hoping I can get some guidance and some sort of solution.
Long story short while in China I purchased a Y511-T00 instead of a Y511-U00. The first issue was upon returning home i realized I had no 3G. That I can live with using a MiFI device.
The problem I am facing is the Rom is laggy and it seems to be a half baked rom that was ported perhaps so the phone would be in english.
Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn do not stay logged in when I restart.
Launcher sometimes freezes or goes blank for about 5-10 seconds
Contacts dont always show with a number immediately.
I am desperately in search of a Stock Rom with the regular Huawei Emotion UI or any other rom that may be more stable and user friendly. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Alternatively does anyone know if i can use the U00 firmware on a T00 phone? I am worried I may brick the device if I start doing trial and error.
My phone details are as follows
Model Number : HUAWEI Y511-T00 (China Mobile)
Android version : 4.2.2
Baseband version MOLY.WR8.W1319.MD.TG.MP.V4.P18 , 2013/07/31 15:37
Kernel Version 3.4.5
Build Number : Y511-U30V100R001C328B120
Hardware version : VER.A

Anyone have any idea? I tried using google launcher but it tells me that I already have a default launcher and yet in applications there is no default set and the button is greyed out.
anyone idea please?
have the same phone which is rooted & I know of some stock ROMs which can be flashed with HiSuite.
I am a bit confused about what ROM you are running now, is it modded ?
I'll take a look at the build number you have specified and see what matches.
This phone is very low end Huawei.
Curious: What is the Build date ? (at bottom of about phone)
Well I have a copy of this ROM on my PC & it matches the Build Number (see screenshot) of what I have on my phone now.
It's stock but contains root too, so I have read. However I actually have not flashed my phone with this ROM.
It runs OK, some system messages still show in Chinese, but those are rare.
I rooted mine via an alternate method, I plan to slowly do some more tweaks when I have time
The ROM is around 270 Mb & another chopped version down I have is about 180 Mb
I cant see why you cant get 3G network, I am in Mainland China and have no real issues here, hope it works in Australia when I visit there.
With root I am sure you could tweak this.
My HuaWei USB 3g USB card works fine in Oz & China.
The primary use of this phone for me is to supply my 10" Tab 3 with 3G via WiFi.
Solution finally
After about 12 hours or so of trying different rom's namely u30 rom's including custom roms like Lewa Os. i realised that everytime my baseband would come up as unknown.
I finally used HUAWEI-Y511-T00 flash with SP Flash Tool to flash a basic T00 rom with no bloatware whatsoever just the core android apps.
I then used ES File, Framaroot and the South African system.img . I extracted all of the APK files from the system.img from the U30 rom and copied them one by one setting permissions to read, write - read - read for each Apk. I did a dalvic wipe and a cache wipe and restarted.
The end result is I know have Google Apps (the ones that I wanted) running perfectly with sync etc across all apps and my china mobile Y511-T00 now behaves like a normal y511-U00.
Points to note, you will need to backup your NVRAM so you can restore your imei and mac ID to get rid of the Warning NVRAM error. You will also need to write your original IMEI back use MKTdroid tools.
Custom rom's will not work, but I have set google launcher as my launcher and removed the regular launcher which I am happy with.
What ever you do, make sure you make a back up. The only thing I have not fixed is the startup animation and logo which i can live with. For UMTS / 3G I am using a mifi device that gives me 8 hours on the go but i barely need 3g as i use wifi more than anyting at home and office.
@ZWstyles
Yeah nice you have it sorted.
Still surprised you cant make use of 3G network natively in the phone do you have any ideas on that ?
Hi! I think i messed up with my EFS folder so I'm asking Samsung Galaxy S2 Plus (I9105P) owners to give me their EFS folder. Orginally the phone was bought from Orange Romania, the stock rom is on the phone right know. I tried all methods with wipe,delete,mount efs,adb,etc.
Model : GT-I9105P
Android : 4.2.2
Baseband : I9105PXXUBMG8
IMEI : 000000000
Wi-Fi : show conectivity but internet doesen't work (on others devices wi-fi works)
Please, help me!
Maybe flash a latest stock Rom for your region
I flashed all ROMs possibles and impossibles the thing is with my 00000000000000 imei I can call for a short period of time then goes with no network. Please,if I can restore the EFS folder from another S2 Plus (I9105P) device..
