[Q] Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE SHV-E120L - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Hi Everyone,
This is my first post. I tried searching the net and this forum for answers but can't find any so I'm trying my luck here. The problem with the phone is it is from korea and I'm from the philippines. Function wise there is nothing wrong except that when anyone sends me an sms the phone does not recognize the sender when the sender is already added to my contacts. When I try calling my phone using the same phone I use to send an sms it can recognize the caller from my contacts. What is the problem? how do i solve this?

Try the GT-I9100 Q&A forum.

Actually the LTE is not an i9100. Unless I'm wrong here, the LTE version came out a couple months ago in Canada and I haven't seen a forum for it yet. Questions on it have surfaced on several different forums.

It isn't but for awhile they had a thread in the I9100 section for cm9/10 I think dsixda has moved to another device though.

I know this is old, but I want to know the same question. I got my phone in Korea, its listed as shv-e120l. I have the same texting issue, and
it can only manage "g" (that's what the icon displays) not 4g speeds which I've tested at only 48kbps.
I think I should flash an ATT firmware, but after several days of searching (seriously) I don't know if I'm going to brick my phone. Help please!!:crying:

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S II SPH-D710 same parts as I9100?

Long story short, I got this really big deal out of a very kind man on ebay of whom did not know the value of his phone, and sold his SPH-D710 for $130 in Mint Condition with an Otter Box!!
Problem is, this phone's loudspeaker and earpiece do not work.
So as I look through ebay, I see there are no loudspeaker or earpiece parts for the SPH-D710, only for the i9100 which makes me believe that it might work since they are after all the same phone only difference is one is GSM and the other one is CDMA.
The sellers of these parts take too long to respond so I decided to ask the community, will the loudspeaker and earpiece parts of the i9100 work on the SPH-D710?
Thanks in advance.
I'm sorry but looks like he knew the worth just right
A damaged, not working phone!

Nah, its quite simple to fix I've opened up several phones before. Its located right past the middle cover. And the pieces wont cost more than $10 each.
I'd think it would be better to ask this in the SPH-D710 forums.
I looked for it but could not find it. And now I click on your link and that forum is dead, there are no threads....

Are you trying from the XDA app? Unfortunately, the app won't link to the overall device forums. Try from a computer.
Or, from the XDA app, click the "Forums" tab, and scroll until you find "Samsung Epic 4G Touch".
To make your life a little easier, here's the Q&A section from that forum.

The forum I actually linked you to was the forum for the D710. Don't believe me?
Type into Google: (which really should have been your first step)
"D710 XDA"
It will lead you back to where I linked you in the first place.
Of course, I just checked your post history... you posted in the Epic 4G forum - NOT the Epic 4G Touch forum. Those are two different phones. The Epic 4G is the D700, and the Epic 4G Touch is the D710. So of course the mod closed your thread in the forum you posted. You didn't post in the one I told you to.

[Q] Please help me to choose between i9100 and i777

i had a thrill 4G(unlocked) and now I am going to buy a galaxy s2 from ebay. So few questions for you guys
this might be crazy though but i just want your help
unlocked I777 price is lower than i9100 on ebay --why is that?
According to gsmarena i777 got a talk time of 18hrs while i9100 has about 18hrs (at&t web site also says talk time in i777 is 8hrs) Any difference in battery department ???
Thanks guys

+1 it depends on your location. Don't think a new thread should have been created for this though. You could have easily gotten your answer through a simple search

The i777 and the i9100 are mostly the same.
Differrences:
I am not certain whether there is a radio chip on the i777 but the i9100 does have radio
It is locked on to the at&t network unless you buy the unlocked one
And specially in Sri Lanka the phone would be more exclusive because many owners have the i9100...
The i777 has the NFC chip built in to the battery and the i9100 does not
These are the basic differences. I have posted a link which explains many differences further....
Developer support for both these roms has been exceptional and are still continuing...

IMO Price reduction may be due to the carrier supplying these devices at a subsidized price. But I am not aware of the exact reason. Are you purchasing brand new or used?

They have the same size battery that's bs. Anyway, if you live anywhere but the us you should get the i9100 is what we're saying

In general I'd recommend an international over a carrier version.
Intl has better resale value and less bloated stock software.

I like the capacitive buttons myself as why I didn't go with the international version.

Guys im not new to google or xda .. I made lot of searches for my doubt and at the end i created this thread to get xperts idea !
There should be a delete button for the thread so that i could delete this. Because i know this is not that valuable for others. Dont you guys this so?
Not every thread is important for everyone. In my case i answer so called useless threads over there. Because they might not be important to me, but foe the creator.
definately the i777 following the reasons outlined before
777 vs 9100

Plus with the capacitive, there are four buttons - rather than only three... I always like it if mine goes one higher...

What Sub Forum Do I Go To??

I just Got this phone yesterday. Had a Mytouch 4g before and always messed with it.
But this phone has so many Sub-forums that i dont know where i can go or where i shouldn't.
I have a T-mobile GS3. Can i use roms or mods from the other carrier sub forums or even the S III I9300 sub forums?
What is the difference from Original Android Development sub forums and Just Android Development
Thanks in advance. I know this is a noob question. so if mods want to delete or move, please direct me to the correct place if this is the wrong place to ask this.
Stay here, don't go to the international sgs iii forum.
If you want to flash a ROM pick one from the T-Mobile section (i think that's who you said was your provider).
Original development is stuff built from scratch/source. Regular development is stuff based on stock Rom.
Hope this helps

Yea that clears everything up. 1 more question.
Why can't I use the other providers section. I'm guessing the each carrier has something that won't work on the others?

All the carriers models are different if not something major like cdma vs. gsm, something software related to fit that specific carrier. Make sense?

Yup, Lock This up Mods. :good:

Which rom works with what carrier?

I'm due for a new phone on October 1st through sprint, and I already have my mind set on the galaxy s3.
Although after looking through the forum I see that there's a bunch of roms. Which is a good thing, except none of them are marked as to which carrier they work for (that I've seen.)
So without having to ask each thread, is there something that I'm missing? Basically, is there some way of telling which one will work with which carrier?
I'm coming from the evo that was a sprint only phone. So it was pretty simple in that there was no choosing.
Thank you,

Considering you're in the i9300 forum, what do you think? All ROMs made for the i9300 will work for all kinds of i9300, and there's only two types of the i9300, the 16GB model and the 32GB model.

I'm using tapatalk and thought I was in the right place. Until I started seeing roms for different countries, I got a little skeptical.
I had a feeling that it was a simple answer, I just wanted to be sure. Lol

The only thing that "should" differ country-wise would be localization and language. Nothing else.

[HUMOUR] You know you're rooted when...

I saw this thread in one of the forums and could relate to most of them.. so just post and complete this sentence "You know you're rooted when.."..
had a hearty laugh at some ones.. so thought I should share em with you guys..
Examples:
wscott9903: You know you're rooted when 1/2 of your apps require superuser permission.
feralicious: You know you're rooted when your spouse tells you they're leaving you and taking the kids and you think "perfect timing, (insert dev name here) just released a new ICS ROM".
jayochs: you know you're rooted when your phones buggy as hell lol
putney1477: You know you're rooted when, you husband, wife, significant other gets a new phone and says, don't you dare come near this phone, it works fine!
jackpot08: You know your rooted when when spend more time flashing roms than using your phone..
Add more if you have some good ones. .
Hit the thanks button if you all like it..

You know you're rooted when someone asks you to take a picture, and laugh because the camera isn't working in this nightly.
You know your rooted when your favorite dev hasn't released an update recently and your having flash withdrawl symptoms.

This doesn't really relate to our device. More so a general root thread. Which I think may fit more appropriately in the general forum (not our general forum, the main one not phone specific).
