[Q] Downgrade to 4.3 - Dell Venue

I need help, how can I downgrade my Venue 7 HSPA+ from 4.4.2 to 4.3? In my opinion 4.3 was better. Is there any way to do it without lost 3G module?

plz help updated ics on 3g version of tablet s

Hi
I had previously rooted my sony tablet s running honeycomb 3.2.1 and had changed my region to usa usingg condi's AIO tool
Yest I got the ota update for ics and. I updated my 3g version of my tablet to ics and I lost mmy root nd 3g functionality
now I m stuck without root n 3g functionality
Plz can anyone tell me hav I lost the 3g functionality Completely? or is there any hope tht I can get back my 3g functionality
Plz reply back I m in a great dilemma and tension
Plzz help me
If you have read condis notices about the ics update you would know that the update is only for the wifi version of the tablet, and currently no 3g update exists. As for root, i have installed condis update with instructions and made sure to choose add root but i am also left without root, we will just have to wait for someone to figure out a way for us to get root now. Nothing we can do about it!
You should've read Condi's notes .
I unrooted my device, as i never used the root functionality other then backups...
If it is possible, try downgrading to 3.2.1 again
So in short have I lost my 3g functionality forever...is there no way tht I can get back my 3g functionality...
if there a way to downgrade to stock version of honeycomb without root prpcedure?
plz help me

Thanks a lot now I m happy that I m not the only one with the ics on 3g tablet
It's near impossible to completely lose your 3G functionality, since the Hardware will always be there. The only problem is whether or not the software you've installed can recognise and utilise the 3G. If you've upgraded your 3G Tablet with the WiFi upgrade, it doesn't have any 3G-capable functionality baked in, but the hardware is still functional, so since your Tablet is now stuck on US region, you will have to wait until Sony releases an ICS update for the US 3G version at which point you should be able to upgrade.

are you certain your phone is properly rooted? when you opened the database with sqlite editor did it ask for superuser permissions?
My optimus g is on 4.1.2 and I noticed another user from the thread I pointed you at with the same problem you have lists the same 4.0.4 version of software that you do. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2283615&highlight=database&page=4

[Q] Enabling Band 4 LTE without 4.3

I recently switched to T-Mobile and my Verizon Galaxy S4 doesn't currently have the bands enabled for T-Mobile's LTE, I am on 4.2.2 VRUAME7 and wanted to know if there is any way to enable Band 4 without updating. I am able to install several ROMs through safestrap, but the bootloader is locked.

[Q] Venue 7 4.3 update not showing?

hey.
so i got my new venue 7 a few days ago, and as i've seen from the root thread, most all of the users have been notified by their tablet to the 4.3 update, but i have not.
anyone have any suggestions as to why that might be? any insight would be appreciated.
Perhaps it is like the Nexus 7 where updates are rolled out to devices over a many days (weeks?). I think Google does it by the device's serial number.
I have no idea if Dell does the same thing (on the other hand, I suspect that there are far more Nexus 7s being used than Dell Venue tablets.).
No update for me either ?

I have yet to see a Dell Venue 7 on Android 4.3, seems to be only a Dell Venue 8 rollout so far.

No Mobile Data

Hi (sorry for my english) I have LS990 device unlocked for a mexican carrier but no mobile data working
can someone help me with this?? :crying:
Most likely you will need the APNs from your carrier. Manually enter them, reboot, should be good to go.

How'd you unlock it? That maybe why, also check what types of bands your carrier(s) uses they maybe not be compatible with this phone. Here is a list of all supported networks (according to LG): GSM 850/900/1800/1900 MHz, UMTS 850/1900/2100, LTE Bands 25/26/41
