Upgraded to the NF6 for VoLte but now, whenever I'm on a phone call, I can't use the internet. Had to turn off VoLte in order to use them both at the same time.
Anyone else have this problem??
How did you upgrade it?
I think there are two modem files that need to have been flashed to work correctly.
That's what I needed for LTE to work right on my s4 on an upgrade before.

I used the full firmware and modem tar as posted here. *sigh* I just shut VOLTE off so that I can do both again. So pointless.
Just updated my wife phone to nf6 via Kies, didn't have that problem.

Don't know what to do. It doesn't work. But this is just one of MANY problems I've had with this phone since I got it. It just keeps getting worse.
Yours is the 900T? Is it rooted?

Yep 900T straight from Tmobile store. I haven't root it yet. I've seen some people has problems with their S5, luckily we didn't have any problem. May be you can do an warranty exchange if you still within it.

Well couple things you can try. May be odin back to stock ne6 without any 3rd party apps to see if you still have the problems. That would rule out if it is a hardware or software issue. Then update to nf6 and test some more. If you want root, you always can odin back to ne6 and root with towelroot.
The last option is to try Samsung.

Hi Guys,
In the past few days ive noticed that if i dont check my phone regularly it will simply refuse to wake up (screen on). I know the phone is still working as the LightFlow settings still use the notification light when needed. I have also had situations where the phone wakes up but theres no touch functions, but locking and waking up again fixes that in 1 try. Has anyone else had this issue or am I going to have to send the phone back?
Thanks
Michael
P.S. The phone is not rooted and hasnt been updated since out the box. Any suggestions to root the phone to fix this will be ignored.
Uninstall LightFlow it has been known to cause this issue.
That is all we can suggest unless your willing to root.

Thanks for the suggestion. I had my HTC Desire rooted and this has put me off rooting my phone at the moment, but I was waiting for the Jelly Bean AOSP anyway.
Not trying to take this too far off topic, but what do you have against root? All root effectively is is an admin mode, you don't have to flash a custom rom.

I dont have anything against root. Its just that when I have a problem with my phone and people suggest to root it, if it doesnt work im kinda screwed over with warranty etc.
Unfortunatly removing Lightflow didnt help and its still happening

Yes, but u can use "triangle away" (by chainfire) to reset flash counter(found in download mode) and flash a stock rom with Odin and back is your warranty.
root...warranty...bla bla bla...why want to return just because of that? do u know that samsung software engineers sucks? i bought nexus, and i just use it for 1 week. want to know why? because it's so boring. the phone so perfect. no problem at all. nothing to tweak, nothing to fix, nothing to improve. i switch back to Samsung Galaxy because of this (before this use SGS1, now SGS3). so, if you have problem like THIS, change your kernel, or just sit and wait for update to fix it. samsung monitoring it (SLOWWWWWLYYY)

Over here afaik at least within the first period the seller has to actually prove you caused the damage to refuse the claim.
Having a rooted device will not stand as having caused hardware-damage.
So far I've yet to hear about a single case of warranty being refused in this country due to software modifications.
If it was as simple as putting a "Waranty void if removed" sticker on stuff actually having any meaning, that would be the end of democraty. Fortunately the law tells otherwise and manufacturers have to obey it (or buy their own law... at least in the USA that seems to work)
However it most certainly will make repairs far easier if the device is stock since they cannot even try to blame you for incorrect configurations or bad flashes.

Thanks for the help guys, Im on holiday at the moment so I'll see if theres a Kernal update when I get home. If not I'll check on the Jelly Bean (or something popular thats been out for a long time) rom stability and root for that. If nothing helps from those ill use the Triangle program to get rid of the root history and send it back for repairs.
EDIT: My Kernal is from May 13th. Surprised I havent had an update come thorugh yet. There isnt even a check for update button in my "About Phone"

Are you by any chance on Orange UK or Three UK? (Can't remember which of both was it)
They've removed that button in their bloatware-edition of the Samsung ROM - probably to prevent users from updating over 3G connectivity.

if you can get into hboot then i would ruu just to be safe. if you cant get the phone to boot or anything then you should be fine.
If he locks the bootloader and installs the stock ics RUU, then he might not even need to send it back to verizon, unless he has a hardware problem.

had the same problem with my number 2 rez.
i would go back to stock with an ruu before returning it. if you dont they do have the right to deny you a replacement because root voids warranty.
My DNA has just started popping up the message "com.android.phone has stopped" and crashing the dialer every time I try to make a call. It worked fine for the first couple weeks I had it, and still works fine apart from making calls. 4G works and I get data. I've tried re-inserting the SIM, doing a factory reset, flashing RUU, and I just got back from the Verizon store where the swapped out the SIM. Nothing has fixed it.
Before I call the VZ warranty department I thought I'd post here and see if anyone had an idea. I'm a little worried they'll see my "Relocked/Tampered" bootloader and tell me I'm SOL. :/

Just to be clear, my "new" phone is actually "recertified like-new". And I have to send the old one back or pay full price for it. And if they find evidence of damage or tampering on the old phone I'll get charged $300. But yeah, aside from that it was pretty easy.
Guys, i am having the same problem! On every call i get com.android.phone has stopped ! Does anyone had the same and found a solution?!
I tried 3 custom roms(viper hatka and another one) no work, reflashed back to stock, problem remains!
I am also living overseas! Is this a problem?
Just out of curiosity, do you still have the little flap covering your microUSB port? I got annoyed with mine and yanked it out...now I'm wondering if it damaged the antenna.
I have removed it too, no way this thing can affect the operation!
It has to do with someone on you facebook or contacts has a birthday on Feb 29 find out which one it is delete the contact sync for that person or change the birthday
Thanks for the reply, have you experienced the same problem in htc DNA?
The solution you are giving is kinda strange, as i haven't passed any contacts or fb account to my mobile and the problem persists. Of course, i had done this one in the past, lets check what you just said, thanks!

Alright, so I got this phone for Christmas, and being the impatient techie I am, decided to do the N4 conversion and get Jellybean. But, this is not my problem. When I plugged the phone in for it's first charging, the screen froze, and I had to hold down the power button, and restart the phone. I thought that maybe this could be a glitch in the stock firmware, so I figured that I could solve that problem, whilst upgrading to Jellybean. I was wrong.. so wrong. The phone still had these problems, every time it was plugged into anything other than my Asus Tablet charger, or my laptop, it would freeze up and require a reboot. Finally, I got fed up with this, and called AT&T to try and use the warranty to get a new phone, but the tech support guy asked what my "phone identity" was and I knew he'd find out I had rooted. I tried to go back to stock, but my laptop always has difficulty with drivers and such, and couldn't get the process to work.
My problem began last night, when I was charging the phone as usual. I reached over to grab it, and the phone cut off completely, and now, won't cut back on. I've tried going into recovery mode, download mode, and even praying to pagan gods.. just kidding. The only sign I have that the phone is working at all, is when it is plugged into a power source, the charging light comes on. I'm going to tell AT&T that the phone is ruined, and cause a fuss about them sending me a phone with defective hardware, so they should send me a warranty replacement. (My mom has been a customer for about 14 years now, so they do whatever she asks usually.)
My question is, is there any possible way to get the phone back on, so I can try and revert back to stock, so I can avoid the AT&T techies from discovering that I rooted? If that happens, I'd have to be paying them like $223, which I reallllly don't have at the moment.
You guys have always come through when I've needed help, so whatever advice you can give is greatly appreciated!
Thanks a million!
My gone bricked too, not in the same way as yours, but it died anyways. Tried everything to fix it, I only made it worse. Finally sent it back to ATT and I had to pay $50- for repairs and now I have my phone back and plan to leave it on stock until oficcial JB comes out. Good luck!

So, did they know that you had rooted?
LGNPST back to stock, It should lock you out with an encryption failed error. That's a stock option. Everything else will be stock. Make sure your sd card is clear of root related things. Take it to the store and be dumb.
Also, I had a problem getting back to stock the first time too. But in your situation you may want to do the battery pull. Instructions are on this forum somewhere. I had that problem too, took it to best buy and they just looked at it and handed me another

You should have just gone into "Download" mode and reflashed your phone to complete stock. This would have eliminated any sort of software issues you were having. If it continued after reflash then you should have sent it back. =( You could have saved some money.
How would they know if you are rooted if you can't turn it on?
First thing they've normally don't themselves is flash it back to stock.
LG Optimus G E971
Yeah root they probably won't notice. Especially if it won't turn on, it is undetectable. Root means giving superuser permissions or beyond the user's regular permissions while booted (rw permissions). If it can't boot nothing can detect it.

Yep I totally agree. The update hasn't even "officially" hit (outside of a couple people claiming to have already gotten it - so it'll likely be soon), but over in the 23A release thread about page 16 or 18 give or take there was some official confirmation that it indeed is still possible Thank goodness lol
I restored it by the graces of the USB gods that allowed the port to work lol and then shipped it off. Should be there later today.
