what do you mean "wrong forum" my issue relates to Thunderbolt and it is rooted so it belongs to Dev forum, which is the one I posted in.

Just because you're rooted doesn't mean everything you post goes in dev. This thread is not about development.

Actually it more belongs in the Thunderbolt General forum, but that is neither here nor there.
The main issue is that all you state is that "I used to get 20 Mbps now its down to 1 Mbps"...There are several items you should be addressing here such as 1. What speed you're actually referring to and where you were getting it. 2. When did your speeds drops. 3. Did you change anything prior to your speeds dropping.
VZW telling you that your speeds suddenly dropping means you need to update doesn't help at all because im sure the VZW rep you spoke to wasn't aware you are running custom unsupported software and possibly a unsupported radio to begin with.

You read all the disclaimers to rooting, your warranty and support from VZW is null and void, and if you walk in and show them a rooted phone and ask why it's broken I hope they take it to the side of your head! Really though, there are a hundred variables once your rooted and you've explained nothing. What radio, ROM, kernel, you using, what was the last thing you changed, have you tried reverting to how it was before you noticed the change? Have you wiped and went back to stock to see if it's a network problem? Is the problem consistent for a few days to rule out any problems with VZW in your area?
Much more than it used to work, I hacked it, now it's brokeded....
how much data have you used? any chance you're being throttled?

Verizon doesn't throttle, I checked into that before I signed on with them. I've downloaded over 10 gigs in 2wks and still get the same speeds.

Verizon throttles but 10 gigs isn't presidents to throttle they go after people using 50+gigs for most part you really have to be eating up some bandwidth for them to throttle

Yo don't be troll. Be respectful man. I am not stupid like you to walk in VZ store. I also didnt mention anything about rooting on the phone. For sake of time and others time and since I knew something about the radio I asked that quick question. So don't be a troll.
I think we all should remember the days we need or will need help. These forums are a great place with many helpful people and some awesome devs! I just hate to see people slam into other folks over a question. Even if it is "in the wrong forum" or not enough info we should all show some patience. Just my .03 worth.

The guy that sold me my Thunderbolt RECOMMENDED rooting it! I asked about battery life and he said it will be a lot better for me if I root it and take off some of the bloat. Now that's a cool VZW employee!

You have to carry it in under warranty (you know the drill ).
wait, WHAT?
some obscure thread is 'mentioning' that VillainRom is not compatible with Tmobile's GS2, oh and btw it bricked my phone and there's no blatant warning or any other mention of this on VillainRom's thread and download in here?
i bricked mine three days ago and up until NOW have been thinking it was something i did wrong. just happened across this thread as i was JUST ABOUT to run the thing again on my new GS2.
i can't believe the mods in XDAD are letting this go. damn. i'm glad i was looking around for some suggestions which led to this little comment.

Well considering that VR is in the Europe s2 section then user error is at fault if you have a T-Mobile or at&t they are different and the user should at least take the time to look at the forums present before flashing ROMs hence there is no need for Pulser or any other chef to note that its not compatible with XY&Z....

except the many end up there from Google and don't even know that they're in the "Europe S2" section. i had no idea til just now.
simply saying some bolder warning might save a few people a very expensive phone. i found a couple others who'd made the same mistake - there are lots of NOOBS in the way of ROMS like myself who don't even know. your forum is HUGE, and there are MANY google results linking you. that's a LOT of NOOBS ...
a little warning would have saved our asses. T-Mobile saved mine, tho, so it's all ok.
There is a completely seperate forum for the Tmobile SGSII. When the SGSII, and probably that ROM came out there were no variations, just the European version. It is not up to a dev to save your phone, it is up to you to put in the time and research before deciding to mess with it.

It is not our place to do your homework for you. This is what happens when people dont research before rewriting the OS on their phone. People are so fast to want to flash a custom rom before they even know what it is doing that this happens. Flashing a custom rom is not for everyone. If you cant put at least 20 hours into just reading up before you do it maybe you should rethink flashing a custom rom. Roms are not for the average person as they dont have the time to keep it up. I am all for custom roms but have come to understand that the "average" person has no business messing with the OS on their Phone

When you enter the world of pimping phones then the legwork to understand your device is down to user...
Coming from the days where not every kid with a gat "comedy value" had a smartphone I remember when the info was far less and smaller user base. "Yet have never flashed a wrong ROM or bricked a device"
If a user is prepared to flash there expensive smartphone without searching reading then its there fault.
After all there are disclaimers on pretty much all threads and XDA as general so as to stop anyone taking flak for user error.

Hey man hit up my email we need to chat. Yeah I swap it up. Now so I stay on topic as well lol. Please do your homework. We are not coming down on you to be mean. Stylez is right in what he says. when I started here there was like 2 roms for the device and the steps were far more complex. Stylez I am sure remembers lol I blew his pm up lol while doing my research with questions till I knew what I was doing. There was no flashing stock and returning the phone under warrenty which mind you breaks you warrenty. So please for the love of all things tech. Take the time and do the research.
Roughly a year ago I got my Sprint EVO 3D. As soon as the first *successful* root procedure was posted I followed it to root my phone. Nearly a year later I have had ZERO issues with my phone/service until about 2 weeks ago. My data speed is nearly non existent. My wife has the same phone with same root. Using the speedtest.net app "HER" phone will get 4 megs download. Mine.....0.12.
I called Sprint and they said they can find nothing on there end to indicate a problem. That it has to be a problem with my phone and I am to take it in and have it checked out. Obviously I can't take it in rooted. I am seeking help/advice to unroot my phone. I feel confident that I can do it, but am confused as to which procedure to use as I cannot remember the name of the root. To re-clarify, I used the FIRST working root that was ever posted.
Any/all help is GREATLY appreciated. I would like to apologize if this is posted in the wrong area. I mean no harm, no foul.
This should have been asked in Q&A. You have to download the ruu and relock your bootloader.
I am so sorry for the wrong area. Should I delete the thread and repost over there? Also do you have a link or push in the right direction to get the PROPER ruu?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20233529&postcount=1
Or do a Google search. Good luck.
Thank you so so so much (thanks button clicked on both your replies). When I first rooted my phone I was like "yes I did it". Now I feel like such a noob.
After some searching and trying my best to remember the root I used I believe I have found it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192245
Will the information you gave to me UNroot THIS particular root method?

Why not? According to internal documents, Sprint requires their employees to treat rooted users equally as unrooted. From everything I've read, no one has had problems taking rooted phones in (especially recently). Of course, YMMV.

I never said Sprint said I couldn't take it in rooted. I am just trying to be thorough is all. The way my luck runs, had I posted I took a rooted phone in for servicing and was told I was screwed because it was rooted it would have been an absolute flame fest of replies LoL
At least this way I know. I can feel confident in what I am doing instead of going at it blind.

Thanks for the info. This seemed to help. I found a local shop through a friend that doesn't care if you are rooted or not. Still am going to try to unroot as it is just nice to know these things.
I have not got around to unrooting just yet. I have been extremely busy. Rest assured I will post as soon as I do (am hoping I can on the 4th) attempt it and share my results.

SORRY it has taken so long to reply. I have been dealing with some health issues. YES thanks to a a guide I found elsewhere I was able to unroot the revolutionary method I first used. Took my phone to Sprint today and they found several issues with it and ordered me a new one. Thanks so much everyone for all the help
Ok i rooted my phone and unlocked it as well. I rooted only for the purpose of only getting a .08 to .3 KBps data speed in an area the is supposed to have been overhauled. I have had the damn phone replaced three times with no results. I have replaced the modem to the best one which still only gives me at best 1.66MBps. Well now when I use the hotspot.......only computer can connect!!!!! NONE OF MY OTHER 12 COMPUTERS CAN CONNECT AT ALL.....AND WHEN IT DOES IT DOES NOT GET AN IP ADDRESS AND WHEN I TRY TO TURN OFF THE HOTSPOT AND BACK ON I GET AN ERROR!!!!! I go into airplane mode and and then turn it off and I am able to connect but only this one damn computer!!!!! how in the hell can I fix this!!!!! PS. PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME TO SEARCH FOR THIS PROBLEM....BECAUSE I HAVE ALREADY DONE THIS AND I HAVE COME UP WITH NOTHING BUT BULL****!!!! I WANT HONEST ANSWERS TO THIS PROBLEM!!!!!!! THANKS SO MUCH!!

I'd hardly call what you posted detailed.
If you have CWM then you were already rooted. What method did you use to install CWM? What "best" modem did you install? What ROM are you using? What method did you use to unlock? Where did you look? What searches have you done? I can go on an on with the questions......
I think it best to speak in a softer/nicer tone especially when asking for help. There are a lot of people here that are more than willing to help those that have a genuine interest in learning.

And every post I see has pages of posts saying you did not say much or search these forums before you post!!!!!! I DID SEARCH!!!!!! AND I WANTED TO STATE RIGHT OFF.......THAT YOU SHOULD SEARCH!!!!!!! I DID THAT!!!!! I do not know what more you want me to explain!!!!
1. Rooted my phone using ODIN with the ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.0.2.3
2. Installed Superuser-3.0.7
3. Unlocked my phone with Galaxy S Unlock", the author is "Helroz"
4. After this I get the triangle and Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 on the splash screen.
5. Tried every modem and the best one seems to UCLC2 Modem.
6. After I did all this one one computer can hookup to my hotspot.
7. When a second computer tries to hookup.....First computer losses connection and second one never connects to get an IP address.
8. When you turn off the Hotspot it give you a message "ERROR"
9. In order to get reconnected I have to turn on airplane modes and then off and then the first computer can connect again.
I am just sooooo upset with this ****!!!!! Been fighting AT&T for 5 months with no results. And even with all the modems I have tried I get no more speed then at most times of .3 to .7kbps!!! I can't even download all the original files to restore completely to stock because I am getting about an 80% packet loss!!!!! And the download always fails anywhere from 50 to 70% I am so frustrated with this I am about to take a sledge hammer to this phone and tell AT&T to stick their network where the sun don't shine!!!

K, i'm going to bite my tongue for a bit and try to help you. But you really are sounding like a demanding vulgar little child. So please tone it down and sound grateful so some smarter people might be tempted to help you solve your issue.
What ROM are you using? What security protocol are you using? I'm going to assume you're using Windows 7 on all your machines.... What are you setting as your network location? Home? Work? Public?
Have you already tried the basics.... wiping cache, wiping davlik, fix permission? Have you done a factory reset?

Now for the questions to your answer.....I have not changed the rom....it is the stock rom.
2. I turned off all security at this point to make sure that was not the problem.
3. All my computers are running xp as I would never put windows 7 on my machine.
And as for network location I have know idea what you mean by that.......as I have changed NOTHING except installed CWM and the unlock program. I also flashed the phone with all the modems to see what gave me the best speed which was the UCLC2.
4. I restored the efs folder and relocked the phone. Still have the same problem.
5. I just flashed the kernel back to stock and it is still doing the same problem!!

3. All my computers are running xp as I would never put windows 7 on my machine.
And as for network location I have know idea what you mean by that.......as I have changed NOTHING except installed CWM and the unlock program. I also flashed the phone with all the modems to see what gave me the best speed which was the UCLC2.
4. I restored the efs folder and relocked the phone. Still have the same problem.
5. I just flashed the kernel back to stock and it is still doing the same problem!!

And? So you're good at taking tests. Does that garner you a certain level of respect? My 9yr old can set up a network. I could care less if you're exhausted in dealing with this issue. You're demanding answers. You're not asking for help. If you already claim to know the tone of this forum why all the high and mighty "oh look at me! I'm a CCDE. I know how to configure IP's better than anyone that didn't take the test to become a CCDE. Bow down, answer my questions or GTFO!"?

OH AND A CCDE DOES NOT CONFIGURE JUST IP ADDRESSES.....I DESIGN WHOLE COMPLETE VoIP NETWORKS!!! oh and close this thread moderator!!
Again thank for the person who pm'd me and was a part of the solution instead of the other ones who had nothing to say but flame!!
dude. get the fkn chip off your shoulder.
you came in here yelling at people, nay, DEMANDING people help you, screaming at everyone even in your first post...
christ, man, what did you expect to get met with? champagne and crumpets?
grow up and learn how to be RESPECTFUL when asking VOLUNTEERS for help....just stop yelling at everyone and you will go a hell of a lot further and people wont troll your posts....
I'm logging in to the site via chrome just so I can report this thread.
Dude, do you have PE problems? Is that the reason for your need to type in caps? To tell people you are a "hot shot"¿ I don't care that you set up voip networks. I care that you are an asshole who types in caps, demands things like a 5yr old and throws around certificate like it's something we should all bow down to. Get over yourself. You may know a ton about networks,I may know a ton about micro architecture (I don't), but that means NOTHING here. Ask and you shall receive. Demand and you shall be flamed.
Anyway, awaiting penalties for this post and grabbing another beer.

get it right.....i came in here asking for help.........and not hearing people say......like i see on hundreds of threads on here to do a search.......and people should not do this or that.........i explicitly said NOT TO DO THIS!!!!!! I ONLY WANTED SOLUTIONS. AND NOT ONE OF YOU DID THAT!!!! YOU IMMEDIATELY WENT ON YOUR **** ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE SHOULD NOT DO....THIS IS NOT A HELP DESK.........THAT IS WHY PROBABLY NONE OF YOU WORK FOR A COMPANY LIKE CISCO!!! IF I WAS ON A CISCO FORUM AND SOMEBODY DID WHAT I DID......I OBVIOUSLY WOULD HAVE RECOGNIZED THAT THIS PERSON IS FRUSTRATED EXHAUSTED ALL OTHER AVENUES AND NEED HELP.
I SURE AS HELL WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ON MY HIGH SENIOR MEMBERS HORSE AND YOU ARE RUDE, YOU ARE VULGAR!!! iI WOULD HAVE SAID, "HOW CAN I HELP YOU AND SINCE YOU SAID, "DON'T ASK ME IF A SEARCHED THE FORUMS.....OR DID THE BASIC STUFF." I WOULD HAVE IMMEDIATELY SAID TO THE TECHNICAL STUFF NOT WHAT ANY OF YOU PEOPLE DID YOU JUST WENT STR8 TO COMPLAINING, WHINING, *****ING AND NOT ONE SINGLE ONE OF YOU DOVE IN AND WENT STR8 TO THE PROBLEM. SO YOU TELL ME WHO IS ON THEIR HIGH EFING HORSES??????
THIS IS WHY THERE ARE THREADS WITH 20, 30, 500 PAGES OF REPLIES!!!!! BECAUSE YOU ARE WORRIED TO THINK YOU ARE MOSTLY ALL KINGS AND RULERS OF THE THRONE!!!! GET OF YOUR PEDESTAL!!!!
NONE OF THIS CRAP HAPPENS ON CISCO'S FORUMS BECAUSE WE ARE ABOUT THE SOLUTION AND NOT ABOUT GIVING A RESPONSE THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO ABOUT THE SOLUTION!!!
SO SAY WHAT YOU WANT.........BUT THIS THREAD PROVES THAT!!!!!! MOST OF YOU THINK YOU ARE BETTER THEN ANYONE ELSE.....YOU ARE NOT!!!
AGAIN THANKS FOR THE PERSON THAT HELPED ME AND EVERYBODY ELSE I WILL NOT DIGNIFY YOUR BS REPLIES WITH ANYMORE REPLIES.
AND AGAIN THANKS..........YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE......IF I NEED ANY OTHER HELP I WILL PM YOU BACK.

Wrong forum
First please read XDA rules #1 & #15. There is a Q&A both here and in the device forum where I quickly searched and found this post on how to restore your phone to stock.
Your phones forum is really the best place to ask such a specific question. Ranting in the General Discussion/General section will only get you generalities.
good luck with your phone. Ya shulda boughta SONY

Here is a guide I have put together for the VZW Samsung SCH-I605 Galaxy Note II
------------------
This guide contains 5 sections:
Section 1: How to Root/ Return to Stock 4.1.1 Jelly Bean coming from any rom with Odin
--------------------
Section 1b: How to return to stock 4.1.1 Jelly Bean coming from any rom with Odin
Step 1: Download and install Odin3 from section 1a if you have not already done so.
Step 2: Download this stock VRALJB image and pit file to a windows based pc.
Folks that have accepted the L4 OTA can not use the VRALJB image at this time...for now use Root66 from section 1a.
Official VRALJB 4.1.1 12/9/12- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2040264(This will wipe data and return your device to factory stock like the day you purchased the device. Also Unlocked and Locked devices may use this to return to Factory Stock conditions!)
SCH-I605_16gb.Pit- http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?05cj895zu3tls7z
Step 3: Power device off, hold the volume down/home/power keys until you see a yellow triangle, then press the volume up key to access "odin or download mode".
Step 4: Open Odin and connect the oem usb cable from pc to device. The driver should automatically install( it did for me on windows 7 64bit). There should also be a "comport number" in upper left hand corner of Odin indicating communication between the pc & device.
Step 5: Click on the pit function of Odin and select the sch-i605-16gb.pit file.
Step 6: Click on the PDA function of Odin. Select the stock VRALJB image you downloaded in step 1, then select start. This operation should take less than 8 minutes before Odin will say pass/reset.
Step 7: Your device should boot back up into factory stock 4.1.1 android!

Lol. Odin back to stock. Looks like you should try to understand what retarded clutter outdated garbage nerdspeak babble you're doing to your phone before you go ahead and do it. Have fun with Verizon tomorrow, I'm sure they'll be thrilled to accommodate you.

That is a good place for someone to place an order for spoon fed customer support.
I have already provided a solution found in his devices forum.
As there has been no update on progress I figured the issue was resolved.

Judging from the original post, I think you used too many 10 dollar words. Lol
thanks for the help ya A-holes lol greatly appreciated
UPDATE: first: sorry about the A-holeness, lol i had dealt with verizon on the phone for WAY TOO LONG! and you know how that feels
:beating-head-against-the-wall
and for the life of me could not find a solution to fix the issue
Second, i was able to return to "normal" status, apparently the google wallet hack was the problem, but still had no 4G, they replaced the simcard which fixed it and also somehow changed the status back to "modified" ??? then an hour later the phone went into a boot loop vzw said they would send me a "certified like -new" phone, still not sure if i should just accept the "like-new" or keep my original (now working because i flashed it back to stock with some guide that some A-Hole posted )
flash back to stock and forget this website ever existed. you're only going to hurt yourself further if you keep trying.
Wow this is the garbage replies I was referring too. You obviously cant read.i did flash back to stock and why would I forget this site. Ive been here wayy longer than you. And why dont you keep your useless comments to your self. Why would you run your d-sucker to provoke someone. I posted my apology but not to you.

He probably read your first post and quit reading since you were an @ss, that's why I and most others here didn't help you. If you would have just asked instead of insulting everyone here you would have got a link to a back to stock thread, and if you had anymore specific questions you would have been helped. Judging by this response you weren't just annoyed at the time, your just an @ss who has no idea what he's doing, and Iphone would be perfect for you, it's idiot proof.

Glad you recovered your phone.
If it was me I would keep the one you know works. Let Verizon send the second hand phone to someone else.
Just remember that opinions are like a§§holes, everyone has both.

Google wallet hack has nothing to do with triangle notification and 4G signal being dropped. You probably rooted wrong. If I were you, I'll just keep my original note2 and figure out to clear the mess. There is always solution to this and every methods are currently workable.
Ahaha now he's threatening me over pm's. This is wonderful. Listen champ, dickhead posts are going to get dickhead replies. Absolutely nobody, here or anywhere else in the world, is going to pander a friendly response after you insult them while begging favors. Learn this now while you still can, you're going to have a very unhappy life if you can't learn how to cooperate.

My husband and I are getting a couple of new phones. He decided to go ahead and transfer his number to a dummy phone until it arrives, so he can work on getting rid of it. The phone was previously flashed to Page Plus and I'm curious how to properly revert to Sprint. I flashed it back to the original ROM on the phone when we got it - all stock, but bootloader/S-OFF did not go back to locked/on, is that normal? It looks as though the phone is up and ready for Sprint use again, but I'm curious if anyone could fill me in on the appropriate steps to take? Don't want to sell it to someone online and find out that it will not properly work.
I made an attempt to contact the flasher, who guaranteed a flash back to original service at any point in time when the phone may be resold, but the person has been of no help whatsoever aside from telling me to do a PRL update (which catches an error & I informed them of this problem) and to do something else, but gave me the wrong passcode.

You do realize I could do without the attitude, right?
I was on mobile, on Tapatalk, did it really quick by simply going to my "subscribed" threads instead of looking through the entire section... In other words, that means: no I did not know there were no other posts/responses/new threads that may push it down.
But thanks!
Hi @Luna_Sky,
I'm not seeing any attitude from ElMadre.
Let's keep it civil please.

Not a problem. Could you please delete this thread? Don't think I'm going to get a response any way.
Not sure if this will help you, but probably worth taking a look at. Flashing phones from one carrier to another isn't my area of expertise.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2195107
Also, based on at least one post I saw in a PP thread here, you may be able to RUU to put the device back stock with Sprint service. I'd give that a shot.
