Stock rooted rom, gsm radio on, TMO sim card installed. Everytime I try to update my phone, it tells me that I need to be a member of Motorola Services. But when I go through the motions to sign up, the system wont let me connect.
Did I screw up my phone and not realize it somewhere.
Also a side note. Everytime I disconnect from wifi, I get a download icon that says "Download suspended. Will resume shortly..."
Don't think you are going to be able to take OTA while running a TMO sim. Have you looked through: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1297714
Yup, read every page. Un-rooted, return to complete stock, put VZ sim card back in. Still no joy. Still tells me I need to be a member of Motorola services. Cheesecake does the same thing. I'm about ready to use Dragon to put a few holes through the phone.
Hey guys,
I'm new to this and I have a issue with my phone. This is what happened; I rooted my Exhibit 2 using the instructions on here and proceeded to flash cm10. I backed up on CWM on my phone then proceeded to do a system wipe and flash the ROM. Once it downloaded, I did not have service. I flashed to Slim Bean 4.2.2 and then back to stock ROM, still no service. My IMEI number is intact, fyi. I really need help. Hopefully this salvageable!
*Update* I forgot to mention that my phone won't recognize sim card. I put it into older phones and says Sim SOS, basically no service still. Help greatly appreciated.
well if your sim doesnt get recognized in other phones you may need to get a new sim
What usually causes sim card to end up like that?
i have no idea never happened to me but i would go to tmobile or whoever your carrier is and get a new one. might be 5 bucks and give it a try
So got the new sim card. I now have service. It says I have 4G but i cant download apps from google play or use internet. So this makes me think that there is a problem with either the radio or my EFS. Any suggestions?
Do you guys think I need to get a new modem/radio? If so any suggestions?
after getting my new sim card i couldnt download either, i had to wipe cache with cmw then it worked
Keeps saying my phone is up to date...I havent got the new ota though.
Do I need my sim in for att to let my phone have the update? I tried going back to stock with odin, but then put my sim in another phone to use. So the gs6 edge is only wifi.
this is the only reason I restored to stock, to grab the ota, now its saying my phone is already up to date.
any help would be appreciated...thanks
found my answer...i reset the phone and put my sim in and it started the update this time.
guess you have to have an active sim in?
I've had an active SIM in the phone since I received it, and it still won't show that I have an update. It just keeps saying I have the latest version, and then I have to wait another 24 hours to check again.
Hello everyone. While I'm not new to visiting this website, I am new to posting here, so forgive me if I make a mistake.
My S5 doesn't have an active at&t Sim card, and before you say to use Odin to downgrade to PA2, or to go to Best Buy/ Samsung Experience or whatever it's called, the USB port on my phone is broken (currently I charge it wirelessly). My S5 is on PA5, and I would like to update it to the latest version of Marshmallow (PH2 I believe).
Can anyone tell me where I could get the files to do so via the recovery menu? Or even better, can someone provide them? I'd really appreciate it.
If not, borrowing a Sim card is still an option, but it's gonna be a long while before I can do so.
As of now you must downgrade to PA2 first. For now this is the only way.
Your best bet is to find someone with ATT sim card and use it to OTA
Is there still not a flashable zip update for the G870A? I've got a Cricket SIM in mine and it says I'm on the latest version, 5.1.1. I've also tried putting an AT&T GoPhone SIM in it (not in service though), with WiFi connected, and still get the same message. The SIM says it's connected to the AT&T network, so I figured that plus WiFi could get me somewhere. My phone is stock and unrooted.
you are on PB6??
I can't recall off hand.. It was the first build of 5.1.1 released I believe... It was a manual update through recovery. I will check the threads on here to see if I can find it. I want to say it's PB1.
Edit:
Ok so I was way off lol. I'm on OJ3. I followed the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s5/help/update-s5-active-5-0-to-5-1-1-of3-to-t3324312
