Identifying phone version for recovery - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I dont really have experience in rooting and such with phones, but I successfully rooted my g2. Now I wish to install cmw, but I have problems understanding which version is suited for me. My software version is D80210-ISR-XX. Which isnt really helping me figuring out what to download.

Your phone's model number is D802 whereas I have ATT so I have the D800. Remember that number before flashing ANYTHING and be sure its compatible with your variation. That will save you from a very expensive paperweight..

Is it not possible to have multiple variations of D802?

I'd check with one of the forum members who offers this service, they're more reliable.

I'm guessing it won't work since to the right of the page it says select your device and the L720 isn't listed.

I see you posting all over the forums trying to unlock this phone. Can I ask why did you buy a U.S. Sprint phone if you want to use a unlocked phone? And where are you trying to use it?

i9500 is the exynos octa core version without 4G. i9505 is the Snapdragon quad core version with 4G enabled. The i9505G has different software from Google, but has same internals as i9505.
Id say if you do not care about developer support or 4G, go for the i9500. Otherwise, go for the i9505 which is the more popular variant.

Samsung Galaxy S4 USA variants come with LTE 4G network and is available on different carriers across the US.
SGH-M919 – for T-Mobile USA (so you got a Tmobile version)

I will share a big, top level secret, hidden deeply by Samsung: go to settings, more, about device, and take a look on the model number.

Could you ask yourself WHY there are different sections? Yes, young Einstein, because the ROM's are not compatible without messing with repartitioning and bootloader change.

You shall be on the subforum appropriate for your device. I would recommend you to search the XDA forums (there is a special tool for it). If you are unable to do such (may be complicated and frustrating especially if you did not graduated from the Primary School) use this link

Hi,
Unfortunately it's not recommended to try repartitioning your bootloader, after all it can brick your device. And because of such there's no working on this area. I wouldn't risk try installing a 9505 ROM on 9505G, but you can ask for better feedback on the Q&A thread .

OK, so you have opposite situation.
In that case you need to do the flashing with the repartitioning. There are several threads related with that, even in this subforum.
If I'd be you, I'd use the PIT file (if your phone is 16GB edition, if not, do not hesitate to find another one by yourself) fro the thread: "Unroot/Unbrick, Flash official stock firmware on Galaxy S4 GT-I9500 & I9505 " which can be easily found, with the ROM of the choice.
Reason of the repartitioning: the google edition has completely different partitions size, including the system partition (google edition is smaller), therefore the flash will be unsuccessful in best case.
Worse case scenario: you will have bricked phone.

Successful Root?

Hey guys, another question here.
Ive been watching arters thread for some time now and i have yet to see anyone there post with the model [SM-G928P]. This model pertains to the sprint verison i currently hold but was wondering if anyone else with this model has been able to somehow root the phone?
Completely dumbfounded at how many models and versions sammy has released with this phone. Or maybe im the unlucky one and have the only P version in the world
Not complaining but was just curious is all.
arter97 said that he won't support Sprint.
Also as far as I know Sprint and Verizon has locked bootloader and when you root the phone, you won't be able to turn it on again.

Sprint can be rooted. It is not yet. See Sprint Note 5 dev thread for the "possibilities " The sprint s6e+ phone should have the same rootabilty as the Sprint note 5.

Thats sad to hear. Also i thought it was AT&T and Verizon with the locked bootloaders? Or was i mistaken?
Oh yeah sorry.
arter97 said he doesn't want to develop it for CDMA Devices, which is Sprint. So, someone MAY come up with root.
Hi
your answer is right and i am agree with this.Thank you for your informative task .
Thats sad to hear. It seems like a great start for the S6E+ however. Hopefully us CDMA users can join the party soon enough. Thanks for the info on arter AK. Appriciate it.

Cellular Data frequently disconnecting on t-mobile network

My cellular data keeps on disconnecting and it shows a exclamation point on the signal. I'm using G900v on t-mobile network. The issue only happens running Marshmallow. I've tried AICP, PhoenixRom and Cyanogenmod 13. All have the same issue. It happens randomly and immediately after a phone call. I constantly have to turn on and off data to reset it.
If I install Lollipop there are no issues. I've tried everything I can find online but nothing seems to work. My APN setting are correct.
Can anyone help figure out why?
Make sure you are on a mm modem check by going to settings about and check what baseband /modem you are on

Yes its GSM. I've tried changing the network type and also installed Advanced Signal Status to change it. Both options didn't solve the issue.

Best bet is to reinstall a lolipop firmware in odin and reroot and reboot bootloader unlock then reinstall mm rom

Tried that already. Went back to stock Verizon Lollipop.... Rooted.... bootloader unlock and updated to MM.
Let me know if you find a solution to this! Been bothering me for a while. To be clear, my problem only exists in non-TouchWiz ROMS.
I am also having exactly same issue but instead of exclamation sign, I get small white x on the signal bars. I also have Verizon S5 that I am using on T-mobile. I had no issues when I was using ATT but this problem started as soon as I switched to T-mobile. My data disconnects randomly and I have to either disable or switch to airplane mode to enable data. Is there a solution to this problem without going back to Lollipop? Currently, I am on Cosmin-OS 7.1.1
does anyone know where i can find the latest modem to flash on my verizon variant , my signal has been poor lately and i wanted to know if flashing the latest baseband would help currently im on a 7.1.2 rom and the baseband is the g900vvvru2bpb1 .

Twrp for sm-g530r4 fully working

I can personally confirm that on the SM-G530R4 the AOL2 BUILD the custom Recovery for the SM-S920L gprimeltevzw works perfectly on the U.S. Cellular variant. I haven't seen any post before mine confirming this so i thought i should share. Sorry if this has already been posted before hand.

I'm having trouble flashing just about anything to my US Cell S7. Not sure if it's too patched or what. I'll try your link when I get home. If you have any recommendations it'd be much appreciated.

Oh sorry I thought that was the S7, my bad
I also have a lot of ROMs and things for the g930r4 and g935r4 if your interested but a recovery is not one of them flashfire is your only option with it I believe
