So like some of you I am still on the virgin mobile firmware. Haven't really had any issues with data connection or anything(one of the lucky ones I suppose). But anyways like many of you I am contemplating on getting the new Evo LTE. I was just going to give my 3d to my wife if I went that route. Question is, would I have to revert everything back to the Sprint firmware or would they still be able to activate this phone as a Sprint phone. Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks

Activating a phone is purely esn numbers firmware does not matter.

So I was wondering if the 4 US versions share the same roms, kernels, etc?
No

Sprint plans are cheaper than other providers which is why I want to switch to it. If they offer horrible internet speed I'd rather go with att or verizon.
How can I fix my sprint motorola photon 4g phone after flashing the us cellular rom on it? HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
Get replacement if you have tep or send to Motorola to get it fix. Use your common sense what you would say to describe the problem. Otherwise there is no fix.

There is I did the same thing, Theres no way to go back to stock, but there is a way to fix it so it works again. Check my thread that says rocko ROM 3.0 or somethin

If it's the 2.3.5 you're locked for good. Get a replacement. Not sure how so many people accidentally flash the electrify sbf's to the photon...

Something needs to be done to avoid mixing these two identical phones and yet so different.

It's not so much different phone, problem is, that it's 2.3.5 and we don't have any 2.3.5 for photon for reflash.
It's not bricked, you just need to learn some steps to bring it back to sprint services.

Hi peetr! Thank you for your responce. My system build before flashing was (198_7)-1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.4-4.5.1A-1_SUN-198_7-CM-release-keys-signed-Sprint-US.sbf This is what I was on before I rsd'ed the 1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.5-4.5.1A_SUN_USC_19.0-19-release-keys-signed-USC-US
I accidentally flashed my photon to the 2.3.5.usc electrify rom as well and would love a solution if there is one besides taking it back to sprint. I believe my warranty is voided now and being a full time student i can't afford to pay for them to fix my phone. any solutions ?
Talk to motorola, just tell them phone doesn't work. I got new refurbished phone from them.

Hi everyone have the Verizon lg lucid 4G lte and they recently updated the Os to ics from 2.3.6. It said online to go to about phone under settings and check for update every time I do this it checks and says error. Now my lucid isn't actually activated by Verizon anymore but was at one point and I'm not sure if that is the reason why. If some one anyone could help me it would be much appreciated.

Have a look here
I did the check for update and it doesn't find one and just says unable and error but I know there is. Software update for this model clearly do you think it won't work because I don't actually have a plan with Verizon my device is pretty much a wifi device right now or does that have nothing to do with it?

I guess I gotta return my i717 because it doesn't support anything on here its probably because I'm through T-Mobile not at&t

Dude, slow down there killer. You are posting everywhere. Have you gone back and looked at any answers?
Your phone works.....slow down and read something. I suggested you go to " Super Everything Thread" have you?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
OK thanks but quick question since I'm on T-Mobile network to I flash tmobile modems or at&t modems?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
They will be under downloads if u used ur phone to download them.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Well I tried flashing the T-Mobile modems but when I reboot I don't have service so I guess I should flash the at&t modems since it is the at&t phone guess it doesn't matter I'm using tmobile service
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
It does matter what modem you use and it depends on your location. ANY and ALL modems should give you phone service at least. So you have a problem. A problem talked about much many months ago. Again Backup, wipe completely, and install the factory ATT ROM using odin. Before you set it up do a factory reset for ****z and giggles. Verify that you have phone service. Then install recovery and superuser. Then install a T-mobile modem. Verify you have data and phone service. Then install the ROM of your choice. Do not reinstall a modem.
And please quit posting everywhere. You have been told what to do by a few now and all you do is rant everywhere. Maybe you should have purchased a T-mobile phone to use on T-mobile and saved yourself the trouble.
Yea but they charged more for the t-mobile version ima prolly wait and sell this one for 300 and put that with my check 2 hrs pf battery life is sad i thought the note would be better then that lol but i already did all that and i know im in a t-mobile 4g area cuz i had a t-mobile phone before and i tried all the modems they are not compatible for this phone im thinking the guy lied to me i think o might have a foreign phone again

again man, slow down.
even reading your posts, its like your going 1000 mph with you hair on fire.
I will ask again, did you go to Super everything thread?
you have ATT phone, use ATT modems. if you are that hellbent on using Tmobile, have you done the SIM unlock???
"Super Everything" is just that. it has everything. I just cant help but think you want everything and you want it yesterday. relax, people will help you.
But i have a tmobile sim though besides i couldn't find any att modems

super everything, and look for SIM unlock.
this will instruct you how to unlock from ATT (getting a code from them) then unlock.
just read it the yesterday as a matter of fact. RANGER CAPTAIN is the author of the thread. in the first post, scroll down a bit and it is listed with some MOD's.
titled "UOCKING STEPS"
once unlocked, then you can put your Tmobile SIM in. as he states this only needs to be done once. you can then flash other ROM's and the process should stick.
good luck
Thanks man sorry for being a noob lol

by the way, if you e spending a lot of time in recovery or constantly flashing something, your battery is going to SUPER SUCK.
your battery should be in the higher end of charged when flashing. recommended 70% or better. could probably get away with 55 or 60 though. again, every time you flash, you take a hit.
Ah ok but a friend of mine used it today it was fully charged went from 100% to 5% in like an hr and 45 min and i was reading on the sim unlock this phone was already unlocked when i purchased it that's how i was able to get t-mobile on this phone i get 4g but it doesn't stay connected i have to restart a lot to get it connected again and most of the time i have no bars so idk maybe i should stop buying unlocked phones lol
