Phone already rooted? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

I just got this phone as a refurbished replacement for my DNA, and last night I powered it on for a deep sleep, and it asked me if I was sure I wanted to download a custom ROM. Is this unusual?

I don't think you can screenshot in Odin mode lol, but I just powered it off and it rebooted fine

Never seen this before. Wish you had taken a picture from another device. Interesting to say the least.

That's what download mode usually says, if you ever use Odin you'll see that screen.

Weird that it went into download mode by itself but not exactly unheard of. I wouldn't really consider this an issue that needs solving unless it continues to happen, so let us know if it does.

Mr orannge he actually bought it off craigslist list from a guy who turned out to be a t mobile employee and it was his personal phone so I doubt its stolen. And I did I flashed axura, r14 then put stock back then the ji6 update. None worked and no rom will the guy said its blocked. I just want to figure out wut this means and how to fix it for him

[REQ] Verizon data usage widget

Does anyone know where to get the data usage widget.

Download my verizon from the playstore. The widget will appear in your app drawer after the install.

Mine doesn't work right. It doesn't update my usage until I open it... Kinda misleading if you ask me. Just thought I would throw that out there.
Thanks,

Thanks. I didn't realize that's where it came from. Also, I know about the lack of auto update, I just use it to get a general idea so manual is fine

Google Wallet

I installed Google Wallet and got everything set up, no issues there. But it says tap and pay not available?? Does anyone know if Google Wallet should be working with the GN3??

Your a little late..... There is already threads started on this. Yes tap and pay doesn't work on the N3. No we don't know when Google will update the app to fix this!
Yeah I realized I was late after posting this. I read a couple threads on the same thing. It amazes me that a latest and greatest phone suck as ours doesn't support features that have been around for a while now.

So you are blaming Samsung for something Google needs to fix?

No not blaming Samsung, just hard to believe something that worked on my GN2 doesn’t work on my GN3

How is it hard to believe? The software is maintained by Google. That is why software gets updates.

^^^^^^ Yes and as others have said in other posts the N2 didn't have it from day one. It took a few months. Likely after an update some time down the road it will work on our N3 also.

Sms error on sense 5 4.2.2 stock.

Hi all I am getting this error when sending sms messages. It happens at random times. I have contacted Verizon one time and the rep said they haven't seen this before and have no idea what the issue is. I contacted htc and they also said they don't know and want me to pay to send my phone in. I refuse to send it in because I'm fairly sure this is a bug in the sense 5 update. Here are some screen shots of the error.
Is anyone else getting this error, or has anyone else found a fix for it?
Thanks in advanced.

I also get the same error on viper and stock.
I'm going to try a new sim card even though I think it may be something different.
I have tried just about everything and spent 2 hours with HTC to only be told that they don't know what the problem is. So no one knows...

Its vey annoying restarting your phone 80000 times a day.
Yeah it is. I'm chatting with Verizon now and see what they have to say about it. At this point I'm ready to Chuck this phone at them. It's an amazing phone when it works. Did you only get this error when you were on sense 5?

Are you using the stock messaging app or have you seen this error with 3rd party ones too.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Got off support with Verizon and he basically said it looks like a software bug and I can send you a replacement device. That makes 0 sense because if it's a software issue it's still going to be present on a replacement device. They basically said I don't know what I can do for you so that's some pretty ****ty customer support but what else is new from Verizon. They could give a **** about their customers.

Well I didn't start getting the error tell I RUU my device back to 2.07 and updated to 3.06. I use stock.
Sucks for me I don't have insurance on my device.
Yeah I don't have any as well but I'm in my warranty for another 9 days. However I don't think it's hardware it's looking like a bug in the sense 5 update. They both offered to repair my device and I won't go that route because I know nothing is wrong with it. So for now I guess I will have to use a 3rd party messaging app and wait to see if I get any errors.

Verizon took my email and said they would be in contact to help develop an ota patch for the bug. I guess we will have to eat and see I haven't gotten an email yet and I doubt I will.

Most people are probably on custom roms so they aren't experiencing it. Or maybe it doesn't bother people enough to report it. It was just happening to me so much I got fed up and contacted support but they proved useless so I guess I'm just going to have to use a 3rd party messaging app until they fix it if they ever do.

I used an app called "Stagefright Detector" from the store. Takes about 5 seconds to run. There are 2 or 3 other apps in the store for this issue.
Or did you mean the update?
More importantly, did it break anything? I think I will wait a few days to see.
New to the Note 3, previously had a S3, rooted and ROMed, so this is a bit different for me.
Thanks,
Tommy
I don't think it broke anything, I was hoping to fix my light sensor with this upgrade but no. Ever since the Lollipop upgrade my light sensor sucks
