I need a link that I can download the pg05img.zip file that my thunderbolt had before the new ruu update. I think it was .6 or .0023 or something . My phone ran so much smoother with it. Also I was running the perfect storm v1.3 and had a kernel from ziggy .(1.7) that I cannot find now from his website. I have been looking forever and finally I thought id ask you freaks. Jk . Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Oh and don't tell me I should have searched because I did. I typed it in Google and searched on here. Didn't find any specific info due to the fact I didn't wanna lose root. I spent literally 6 hours rooting the bad boy the old fashion way adb drivers .

There's a radio thread in the development section. Has all the radios. Can't help you with the kernel.

You can't tell me which one I download? What do I do ask there?

So tell me what I paid 4 dollars 4 if I can't even post what I need help with in the correct thread. and you know what I'm talking about you could have just given me the link

You didn't search too hard did you. It's in the development section and it's title says RADIO on it. You will have to read pass the first post to know which one came with the phone. No, I won't be providing you with a link, just go to the development section. As for the stock kernel try flashing the debloated stock rom.

In here somewhere, shouldn't be too long to figure out.
As far as the kernel you'll have to ask or pm the dev since they don't have it explicitly posted.
Ok well I flashed the .6 LTE and cdma but when I check the software on my phone it says I have the .9 I am so confused
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
That is because you are comparing all the wrong numbers. From Adrynalyne himself...
1.12.606.6= release software. This is what you started with.
1.12.605.9= leaked software, but same radios as .6.
1.13.605.7= leaked software, latest, new CDMA and LTE radio. These are what people flashed in the RUU thread or Das BAMF.
Thes numbers are software release numbers. Not radio numbers. The baseband number, I believe, is the radio number. So, if you flashed this file, you have the new RUU with the old radio.
If you downloaded this file from the OP of the Radio thread, then you have the stock radio.
Lastly (for now), we have the 1.12.605.6 CDMA/LTE radio combo.

To read is your best bet. I have been a "lurker" on these boards for some time. I read and read some more until I understand. Believe me, it is not fun reading through a couple hundred pages for just one thread, but you would be surprised what you would learn by doing so.
And to be quite honest, asking questions such as this only serves to solidify the reason for the responses you get from the more senior members. If you have to ask questions like this, you had no business rooting or loading a new radio in the first place.
Good luck
Whatever I am not going to spend hours on here reading about a phone. I actually have a life and it is not spent on my phone . Thanks for the help. Maybe if you would explain the answer to the question I was asking I would understand. Instead of posting someone else's written material on here for me which I obviously read before . But whatever I flashed the wrong .zip file anyway and lost root thanks freaks

If you don't want to spend the time and learn about your phone then you don't need root
We won't spoon feed you here, you have to do somethings by yourself
Besides rooting the phone again is easy, as long as u didn't use a semi one click root

i have spend time to learn about this phone. I am just not familiar with the lingo. bro i have been from verizon (og droid) to at&t (aria) sprint (evo) and now back to Verizon only after having the samsung phone until the tbolt was out. I rooted every single one of those phones !!! i bricked the og droid and learned alot from that. havent bricked since. so don't tell me i don't spend time on here. you and alot of people on here spend more time complaining when you could be explaining. you would have saved a step in your last post had you just put the answer to my question. i build powerlines off helicopter skids for a living i don't have all day to spend on here "learning" the lingo. i just wanted simple help without you freaks getting your panties all bunched up because i apparently don't know what i am talking about. so if you cannot help me do not post back.
i am new to this website, as i have been finding all my information on google because i was afraid this would happen.
i rooted this phone having to install adb drivers on windows 7. do i just use shell command or whatever its called and push the files to the phone and make sure the md5sum is the same? all i was wanting to do was just go back before the leaked software. i was running the perfect storm 1.3 and ziggy mecha bfs kernel i think it was 1.7 but it was superfast. i live in los angeles and where i live i have full 4g all the time. now i lose 4g go to 3g then have to mess with it to get it back to 4g. that was until i lost root. so back to my question do i just push the files to the phone. i will have to fire up that old laptop again the only reason i used that one was because there wasnt a root guide for a mac back when the tb was released. is it easier on a mac fresh or on windows with the adb drivers and sdk already installed?

Do yourself a favor just get an iPhone and leave us geeks to our hours of reading and flashing since we have no lives.

In the time it took you to insult everyone that can help you, you could have found the answer you were looking for. Just because there are people on here that have a vast knowledge about this and many other phones doesnt mean they have no life like someone who gets offended and calls the people that can help them "freaks". Next time you need assistance you might want to change your tact. Just my opinion.
Note has been an epic phone for the past couple of days. Absolutely love it. I am just wondering if I should root it. Never rooted before as this is my first android phone. I think it would be kinda of fun to mess around with roms and stuff. I am just worried that I will brick my phone and lose the awesomeness. Can someone help?

There are no custom rom's yet, but if you want to read, overclock, remove crapware, backup your apps effectively, block ads, and void your warranty, then by all means.
Sent from my almost cm7 p925
i would solely because I'm just curious as to how fast my phone can feel without the crapware from att and possibly some ocing and uving. I'm fearful of the counter though, but I might just do it this weekend once I'm done with midterms.

This is what I always tell people when they ask should the ROOT and ROM. I can't tell you weather you should or shouldn't. You need to make that choice yourself and know that no one is responsible for what you do to your phone.
But if you decided to ROOT and ROM your phone the first thing on your to do list is.....READ. Read everything. Read how to ROOT and how to ROM. Read about the tools and programs you are going to use. Watch youtube videos and tutorials. And when you're done with that......RE-READ and RE-WATCH all of it!
I can't stress how important it is that you understand what you are doing. If you don't get what you're doing you will end up on the forums begging for help to fix it.
I read up on Rooting and Roms for a few weeks before I tried to do it myself. I also asked questions in a respectful manner not expecting an answer RIGHT THEN. I also hit the THANKS button, that goes a long way!
So in a nutshell....EDUCATE yourself and have respect for the community when you ask questions.

a thousand points to mortem very true and valid advice. no truer advice could be spoken about android mods and roms. My personal favorite is when people try to use international roms on things like the skyrocket.
Once you get the itch, you will do it eventually
But good advice above! And while you are researching, a flash counter workaround root method will likely be found.

agreed.....people don't read, they just want and don't bother checking into things. And then they get all mad when they jack up their device.
heh there were atleast 40 bricked epic touch 4g's bricked when the isgs2 ics roms leaked lol people just wouldnt listen.
I would wait until you are past 30 days and know you are going to keep the phone or you have no exchanges. after that you will have to go to warranty support so you can flash back to stock. No need to make additonal work before 30 days.
Who know there may even be a super 1 click root by then?
hi i bought locked in calgary galaxy note i717 (already have cynogenmod version 10.0.0-RC0-quincyatt & paranoid android version 2.21)
how can i find carrier of my i717
I don't understand your question. Are you asking what carrier the phone is locked to? Model number under battery will tell you that? Are you asking how to unlock phone for any carrier? I believe with Canadian Notes it is better to use a third party unlocking service (like from ebay) to get the phone unlocked if it already isn't. But on the other hand I think some Canadian Notes come unlocked from factory. If the phone is unlocked, maybe you just need to enter the APN for your carrier.
For future reference, questions should be posted in the questions and answers section.
OP yes please explain your question and this has been moved to the Q&A. Thank You
Go to www.samfirmware.com and you can find the stock carrier rom. You can flash it with Odin software and a pc and the charging cable.
When you flash it your phone won't be rooted anymore.
I thought my answer was sufficient but OK.

Well Sir, your jokes or comments are not helping....there is a right way and wrong way to provide assistance and your way is not right.
If it bothers you so much that individuals are asking and looking for assistance, then stay out of the Q&A threads. Now I do not mind showing members assistance but bottom line they have to figure it out them self's. Teach them, not bash them.
Again if I see you bashing instead of providing, Stand By Sir. Thank You
Why do you refuse to enforce the first rule of XDA? SEARCH!

Dear All seniors
Thanks for your valuable suggestions
the phone which i bought was locked to roger. i flash last night with stock rom
now i have 2 question
a how to carrier unlock galaxy note i717r
b which rom should i flash my galaxy note so i work with mobilicity
thanks
You have to get an unlock code. That is something you purchase from ebay.
The Rogers rom is ok, but you have to flash a modem. Any modem compatable with t-mobile will work for you.
Dear just unlocked my phone
only one problem is left which is to used with mobilicity
so can u send me the link to get flash with a modem so my phone can run with mobilicity

I got the DNA about a month ago but when getting it Verizon did the update for me.. while "showing me the ropes".. even though I easily know more, but anyhow I'm stick with it. But it seems like I have to unlock the bootloader to get the recovery to root to flash Rom. But I'm unsuccessful even getting the bootloader unlocked for this ota for this phone. Is someone working on this or maybe I'm missing the current fourm? Thanks for any direction but I'd like to sometime test ubuntu on this quad core beast .. and get the bloatware off of it!

For the 1000th time, no, unless you want to send your phone off to be jtagged you cannot unlock/soff/root your phone.

Noob mistake. Use the search function before asking a question. Chances are you will find an answer to most questions you have.
GPS Status and Toolbox should help for the GPS

I don't know why some people insist on calling n00bs out for everything. They too were once a noob. Your question is fair- there are two things you can do:
1. Turn on GPS and try to navigate somewhere, then go into Settings/More Settings under Wireless and Network/Mobile Networks/ and change the Network mode to CDMA/LTE to Global or vice versa. See if that works.
OR
2. Reflash back to Stock or whatever ROM you have had a GPS lock on and establish a lock. Then nandroid flash back to whatever ROM you want (i.e. JediROM). Try to navigate- most likely it will work.
I would advise though, hitting the Crtl F key... :highfive:

Really the way some noobs are treated they are turned away from the community. I have been guilty of *****ing out noobs before as have most of us. It gets very old to answer these questions every day when people could have used the search function to find the answer.
On the same hand the reason some of the noobs dont even come to XDA and screw up their phones by using roms and rooting methods is because of the attitude here at XDA and the way noobs get treated. Im not saying every noob gets treated badly but when the first post tells them to search without trying to answer the question that gives a initial impression of an assholish community.

Very true, but you can choose to sort thru one sub forum at a time and that geta rid of the majority of the posts that dont apply to you. Of course most noobs are confused by the way XDA is set up, I was confused by it a bit when I joined but it was a bit more disorganized then than it is now.
The reason most of us get a little annoyed with noobs and repetitive posts is when there are 3 posts that are the same thing one right after another and there is an answer in one but they didnt bother to even look at the Q&A section before posting.
The worst part though is when there are posts in thr Development sections, when I joined there was no Q&A sub forums and I still had enough sense to not post in Development.
Those of us who do try to donate our time and answer questions for new members need to leave our attitudes at the door when we start helping them unless it is warranted, and there most definitely are times that attitude is warranted. They are there asking for help because they honestly dont know what to do or don't understand a process and they asked for help not attitudes for posting a question in the Help and Q&A Thread. Its really giving the sitenas a whole a bad name because of the attitudes that some members have towards noobs even when they follow all the rules and have legitimate questions. I hate saying that about XDA because I love the site so much but it's the honest truth.
