USB Jig? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Might be too early for this but has anyone tried a USB jig to reset the Odin counters? Just curious. I have a jig but not ballsy enough yet to try it.

I would highly doubt it but will test when I get home. We don't have a counter anymore. Now it is a status. Custom our not. But you can try it. It's either going to reset it or do nothing.

Nah. Maybe a few sparks but that's all.
J/K
But if you are apprehensive I will do it soon as I get home in about 30 minutes.
Oh and since triangle away doesn't even work I am 99.999% sure it won't work.

Ehh that sucks I guess. Maybe a new jig will come out for the S4.

Unless one of our devs develops one for our Sprint S 4s, I wouldn't try this. It says in big RED letters that the mod contains a kernel. It is for a different firmware than we have on our phones.

Cant send txt messages

Well, figured I would ask you guys since sprint apparently gave up.
So, for about 6 hours now, I haven't been able to send or receive txts. It just says messag not sent in the notification bar, and failed under the message itself. I can still use phone, web, and email. So, I called sprint and they had me remove the battery and they reset the messaging or something, but that didn't work. Then they sent me to tech support, and they had me update profile like three times, but that didn't work. Then he tells me he would like to get his manager in on it, but he wasn't available at the time, so asked if he could call me back in like 20 minutes. I said sure, and even gave him the number to our other line to call me on, and that was about two hours ago. Still haven't heard back.
So, have any of you ever had this happen, and how did you fix it?
I'm currently on random rom phoenix with genocide 1.0, but I even tried flashing a couple different roms to see if maybe that was the problem, but had the same result. Txt messaging still broken.
Thank you for any help you can provide.

You are not using a task killer or clearing level 2 RAM are you? Have you tried GoSMS or Handcent to see if those work in order to narrow down the problem?
Had this happen on my Evo3d just 2 days ago.
Called up Sprint and had them refresh my text messaging. They basically just reset access to text messaging. It fixed it for me.
fail......odined to complete stock eco5, and still cant send or recieve txts. As usual, phone, web, and email all still work fine. Updated profile again also. I went into about phone, then status to check my prl (60681), and noticed for phone number it has my number, but in MSID it has a different phone number I have never heard of. Not sure if that would cause any problems, but I'm not even sure what MSID is either, or how that number would have gotten in there. strange. Guess I will just take it in to the store today.
EDIT......I just received at text right after posting this, but my reply failed. Maybe there is some kind of text outage in my area. That's what Sprint told me yesterday over the phone...lol They said it might only affect some phones, as my wife's phone works fine.

No task killers, and no ram clearing. I had gosms before I Odined back to stock. I'll d/l it again since I'm stock now, and see what happens I guess.

Gosms fails to send also, so its not that..
Well, this thread can be deleted. Pulled up to the store, and figured I would try one more time to send a text so the phone doesn't make me look stupid going in there, and it went through, finally. Maybe I'll just go in and play with the et4g for a few minutes since I'm here.
Thank you guys for being patient and trying to help me out.

Testers?

Hey guys, I'm at it again. I recently tried porting over my first ROM and with the help of swiperrat, I've done it! but, my phone has never been able to boot this type of ROM. (Go figure I pick that one) so I'd like to get some testers to tell me how we've done. I wanted to try to get a CNA ROM to boot, so I have an unofficial CNA 3.6.6..
Either post if you want to be a tester or Pm me
Ill test for u.

In all honesty, and trying to be nice, but we English-speaking people have no idea what you mean by the above. Please try to explain it better.
"Shoot lightning" could mean how do you take pictures of lightning with a camera, because the word "shoot" often means to take a picture.
"could not be lit" could mean 100 different things.
Although I have a feeling that English is not your first language, you need to take more time to explain things before we can help.

if your right that was a bloody good guess
Or perhaps OP is asking how to turn on the flash? Just hit the gear icon when you have the camera open and switch it to auto flash if necessary.

No Vanilla AOSP????

Or am I just missing it? I can't find a vanilla ROM anywhere.
I am wanting to use xposed with no interference, but all the ROMs I've found have the same things

PA is pretty vanilla at this point and is stable, all builds are supported in the original development section hope this helps

Any 4.4 ROMs with knock off built in that are stable? Really looking for nav bar cursers too.
I was spoiled coming from the Gnex ROM scene, and my wife's Nexus 5.
I haven't had xposed problems, but what slow down are you talking about? Open to listening.
There are plenty of roms, aospa,cm11, aosp variants...
If you ever have a chance, compare two same phones one with and one without xposed. You will see xposed adds almost a second slowdown when opening/loading apps
