(Guide) Enable LTE on SM-G900FD - Galaxy S 5 General

Hi,
I recently bought this phone and couldn't find LTE option in Settings> More Networks> Mobile Networks.
Below are the steps which solved the problem for me
1. Downgrade firmware to G900FDXXU1ANF6
2. Root via towelroot v1
3. Change with a root explorer of your choice (e.g. Root Explorer, Solid Explorer or EF File Explorer) the value “false” in file persist.radio.lteon into “true” by way of build-in text editor of the root explorer. The file is located in root/data/property.

@monemhamid
If you want to root keep the knox with toowelroot if it not working because you upgreate,
try this way only with old kernal form your model before 3/6/14

Why do you need to downgrade?
Mine works fine with the latest firmware (GNH1) on Note 3 SM-N9005.

I followed the steps on http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/how-to-add-rf-lte-frequency-bands-to-t2886059 and managed to change values as shown in the attached pictures.
Sin 4g develop in my country (Argentina) is quite new, and I don't have 4g at home, but I do have H+, I don't know if It's an antenna issue or I've done something wrong, because 4g deployment in my country has just begun.
I've been looking for a band / modem test to check it out, but I failed doing so, because could find appropiate software or phones secret code to do so.
Any help will be appreciated.
My phone is sm-g900fd (rooted, 4.4.2, baseband g900fdxxu1anh2)

http://fs04.androidpit.info/userfiles/6949008/image/06829.jpg
I have allready rooted my phone, but couldn't enable all bands, in fact it doesn't has b4 aws enabled, which the one used in my country (Argentina)

SIM Toolkit for ICSSGS

Dear all,
I am desperately looking for a STK.apk from the ICS SDK.
I am currently unable to install the sdk since I have no access to a computer right now.
Can someone please post a link to the latest stk.apk?
Sent from my I9000 using XDA App
Edit:
I have found another STK.apk than the one from post 3. The latter one has been extracted from OneCosmic's ICS Beta 1. It works fine for me as well. Apparently my Dual SIM adapter does not need all functions of STK, so it may not work for sending provider codes.
Anyone who is able to use the attached STK with provider codes, please provide feedback for others.

mmeeetooo i need it plzzzzz
Success
To all it may concern:
I downloaded the STP.apk (SIM ToolKit) from the ICS Apps Dump , copied the apk to "system/app" and changed the permissions to Owner: RW, Group: R, Others: R
To do so, use any Root Explorer app.
As I am not yet allowed to paste links, please PM me if you want me to sent it to you.
Works like a charm now...
Steps:
1. Download 'stk.apk' and copy it somewhere on your phone
2. Move it to '/system/app' with a root enabled file manager
3. Change the permissions as described above
4. Reboot
F.y.i.: Root does not work on my ES File Explorer.
I use 'File Manager HD', cause it's easy to use and it is free.
Dont forget to enable root in the settings.
Permissions can be changed by long press on the file.

Well I am on Onecosmics great RC1 with "updated" kernel, which is also 4.0.3 and it works perfect. It works even better than on GB.
I am using a dual SIM adapter which needs STK to switch between SIMs. On GB Stock, the process crashed from time to time and I had to restart the phone in order to be able to switch SIMs. Now, I doesn't crash anymore.
- Did you copy the file with a root-enabled explorer and assign the correct permissions?
- Do you have any radio related issues on your ICS installation? (e.g. incoming/outgoing calls working, no mobile data issues etc.)
I did all the things above, can't instal it....
Need other version of stk.apk?
Greetz
I don't think that you need another version, since this one is from the ICS System App Dump and it works perfect with 4.03
Do you receive any FCs on the Phone process? Can you copy stk.apk to system/app ? Did you check permissions (i.e. rw-r--r--)? Is the stk.apk still in the correct folder after reboot? Did you reboot?
A detailed description of what happens would be an asset if you want help.
I did everything as described here. Seems that app somehow works, but something isn't like it should be. My confirmation through stk doesnt reach back to server I guess.
STK depends on RIL!

I'm not surprised... this is the same behavior I saw on CyanogenMod 7.
SIM Toolkit is heavily dependent on the Radio Interface Layer (RIL) implementation. As I understand it, the RIL is the hardware/software component which interacts with the phone's modem/baseband in order to call, SMS, 3G, etc. SIM Toolkit and USSD codes are all dependent on separate functions in the hardware, and the software layer must also implement hooks for them to work properly. The original poster's SIM switching gadget might work because the functions it relies on are implemented, while the ones we need are not.
Also, I've noticed that certain operations work on Onecosmic's ICS which don't work on Teamhacksung's, such as *522#, my bank's mobile interface. STK has only ever worked for me on Samsung stock ROMs.
More info about Android's RIL software and how it interacts with the hardware: http://www.netmite.com/android/mydroid/development/pdk/docs/telephony.html
Thanks aorth, for this detailed insight.
So I must consider myself as a 'lucky guy'.
Could the issue be fixed by using or porting a Nexus S modem?

I did everything in the steps. It's installed. I can't seem to find it in the app drawer. Nothing in my app drawer is hidden. So, since i can't find it. I can't run it.
Solutions?
Hi, with 'installed' , do you mean 'copied to \system\app' with correct permissions and still there after reboot ?

You must be root and you need a file manager with root access.
c.f. instructions on first page, post #3.
If you are not used to do this kind of stuff, be cautious and follow the instructions step by step. PM me, if you are unsure.
Do it at your own risk. I am not responsible for whatever could be the consequences of your doing.
I've just downloaded and followed the instructions for installation at post #3 and it worked fine! I'm using Onecosmic's ICS RC3.1 in my SGS.

What exactly does not work? Do you have working root access?
If you are not able to copy the files to the specified location, then either your root is not working or you have not enabled it correctly.
In the app I mentioned, you must do the following:
- start 'file manager'
- press left button and select 'settings' from the context menu
- tick 'Root Explorer' and 'Mount system writeable' checkboxes
- allow the app root access whenever asked...

[Q] Upgraded to AOKP from Overcome 7 but now no 3G

I'm in Australia using Optus and 3G was working fine with overcome 7, after I flashed AOKP and entered the APN setting, 3G is not working (internet connection not available), I have tried to reset it and use the default APN setting but still no go.
Is the AOKP not working with Australia Optus 3G network?
BTW, the time cannot be changed too, so it has to be the default system time..
Try this setting
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1637898
But for us, we just didn't get 3G, no no internet.
Do you get signal bar strength at all?
Do this if you know how to use root explorer or ES File Explorer.
Get the JPZ modem.
Unzip it and extract out the modem.bin
Explore to /radio and delete the /radio/modem.bin
replace it with the JPZ you extracted.
Reboot to make sure.
You should get signal.
Then to to the APN setting and set it exactly like stated in the thread.
About setting time, mine has always manually. Don't use the phone provider time.
I always find it wrong.
I manually set my time and time zone, then use ClockSync software to sync.
Working Perfect Now !! Thanks and you are my life saver !!

You have to get the correct APN (Access Point Name) for your provider to make data/MMS to work, you should not require the XT883 firmware. Just try google with your SIM provider followed by APN settings.. such as "Orange UK APN Settings" or check their website, or give them a call for the correct APN settings. Some SIMs have the APNs locked into the SIM, some of them do not include APNs (You might check a phone from the SIM provider for the APN).
When you find the correct settings, go to Settings > Wireless & Network settings > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names
Create a new APN and enter the info you found. Also check Battery & Data Manager > Data delivery to ensure data is enabled.

1) do you connect your phone to the pc while doing this

On Stock and Blur based roms, there's a little line in the build.prop that Verizon snuck in.. that makes any GSM network appear to have bad reception (only 1~2 bars) but if you check under status, the reception is actually good. You can fix that by editing this line in build.prop;
ro.mot.phonemode.vzwglobalphone=1
Change the 1 to 0 and save, then reboot, this should fix the 'reception issue'
A free root browser would be JRummy's Root browser lite, or ES File Explorer (you can enable root browsing in settings).
Build.prop is in /system
IF YOU INSIST ON FLASHING XT883 (Only required for using AT&T/T-Mobile/Other USA GSM networks)
Open a root browser; copy the build.prop you have to the SDCard or somewhere safe. Copy the build.prop (after you edit the line I mentioned before on the PC, you can use notepad). After you put it in /system MAKE SURE YOU FIX THE PERMISSIONS. Most root browsers just long-press build.prop, then tap permissions (ES is Properties > permissions) Check only Read (on all three, user, other, etc) and Write on Owner ONLY.
Then use the fastboot instructions to flash the XT883 radio. THIS WILL BREAK VERIZON CDMA.

Xperia TX Jelly Bean - Possible solution to wifi connexion issues

Hey,
So after updating the Xperia TX to JB, i have noticed that there is an issue with wifi connexions, meaning that the phone will no longer connect to some access points of software access points (connectify, virtual router, etc...). After entering WPA key, it just says connecting then goes back to previous state.
I fiddled a bit with this and finally compared wlan .ini files from ICS and JB.
If you are having the same problem, a small modification to the .ini file might solve the problem...well in my case it did.
Please note that you need root access to modify this file.
1) Mount system folder as writable using your file manager or root explorer
2) Navigate to /system/etc/firmware/wlan/prima
3) Make a backup of WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini
4) Open WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini and look for g11dSupportEnabled=1
5) Modify it to g11dSupportEnabled=0 and save the file
6) Power off your wifi and Power on again
7) Forget the SSID you've had issues to connect to and try to connect again
and you should be good to go.
To understand the g11dSupport property please refer to here - from wikipedia
if the above did not work, there is another property which has changed:
gEnableFWRssiMonitoring=1 in JB was gEnableFWRssiMonitoring=0 in ICS
You may wanna try that.
works on tx build .67
before i changed this damn 1 to 0 i couldn't connect to my wireless modem !
but now its ok.
tnx:good:
great it worked!! pressed thanks..
i tried with ex file manager, it couldnt save the script.. then used root browser.. did the trick..
if i unroot, i will loose this fix?

Make sure you have root access and that system is mounted as R/W
If you have root, you can usually remount in your file manager application (File Manager or ES explorer). Check in settings

There must be something wrong with your RW access if you cannot modify the file.
Try this:
1) Copy the said file to your SD card
2) Connect your phone as Mass Storage
3) Using and Editing software like Notepad ++ open the file and make the changes and save the file
4) Go back to your File Manager and rename the existing file (the one in the root folder)
5) Copy the modified file from your SD card to the correct location
If copying or renaming the file fails, means you dont have Read/Write access to the root folder.

If you have root access you may try it. Though i don't know if it will solve it. The wifi problems are very eratic. Most of the issues depend on the access points being used and their settings.
Try it and keep us posted.
Don't forget to make a backup of the file before modifying.

[GUIDE] How to fix "Domestic Roaming" on Sprint (and other) Nougat (and other) ROMs

[GUIDE] How to fix "Domestic Roaming" on Sprint (and other) Nougat (and other) ROMs
One of the issues with running the latest Nougat ROMs on this device is that they all say "Domestic Roaming" instead of "Sprint" and also display an R instead of 3G, 1x, etc on the signal display. After much research, I've found out it's that the phone doesn't recognize the tower as a Sprint tower and thus assumes you're roaming. The fix for that is in a little file called eri.xml. What I did was take the file from this OP (all credit goes to him) and modify it a little to get it working properly (it only had three of the four needed Roaming Indicators). I've attached my modified version to the OP of this thread, but here are the steps if you want to create your own. Note that this can be done on a PC or on your phone directly. You will need root! (but since you are most likely needing this for a custom ROM, you probably have it).
If you are just using my file directly:
Download the file and copy to phone if not downloading from there.
Copy and paste the eri.xml file to /data using the file manager of your choice (must be able to browse using root).
Change the permissions on the file to 777 (ie to Read Write eXecute for Owner, Group, and Others).
Reboot phone.
If you are going to make adjustments:
Download the file.
Unzip the file and then open eri.xml in a text editor.
Open up this list of Roaming Indicators from this Github eri.xml source
On that site, use your browser's find feature to search for your carrier. For Sprint, there are four of them (0, 1, 99, 123).
In your text editor, edit RoamingIndicator="#" to match your carrier's roaming indicator number and edit EriText="Sprint" to match your carrier's name. Note that you can change the name to whatever you want and it will scroll if it's too long (or so I've read).
Repeat step 5 for all the roaming indicator numbers for your carrier.
If you need to add extra ones, use copy and paste to do so.
Make sure that NumberOfEriEntries="#" matches the number of entries you have when you finish.
Save eri.xml and copy it to your phone if it's not already there.
Copy and paste file to /data using the file manager of your choice (must be able to browse using root).
Change the permissions on the file to 777 (ie to Read Write eXecute for Owner, Group, and Others).
Reboot phone.
At this point, you should see Sprint as your carrier and no more R on the network meter in the status bar.
I almost didn't create a new thread as I didn't do much, but I wanted to keep all the Q&A and troubleshooting in one place and not clutter the other threads. Plus, I wanted to expand upon some of the steps on what you have to do. If you have any questions or need help, please let me know.

The only time I see something like that is if the file manager isn't root capable, it doesn't get root permissions somehow, or the phone isn't rooted. What file managing app are you using? I did this successfully using Solid Explorer File Manager, although I'm sure any other one that gets root would do.

I used root browser on Resurrection Remix. It has Privacy Guard which asked if I wanted to grant root browser access, and I granted it. Root browser asked me to install busybox, which I did. I moved the file to /data successfully. However, it still didn't gain permission successfully.

Hmm... I looked and that's the exact ROM I tested it on. You'll find my post on the first page and yours is on the second. I don't think I installed a different su program like SuperSU. Two ideas:
1. Make sure you give Root Browser permanent root access.
2. Try a different file manager. I used Solid Explorer with no issue. If you don't want to buy it, try other free ones first. I think MiExplorer (I think that's its name) is free on XDA and is nice.
Thanks for the suggestions. I used solid explorer and it seemed like it worked. Permissions were still 777 after reboot, but I still don't get mobile data. My network says "Sprint" instead of "Domestic Roaming", at least.
Changing roms doesn't help, correct?

Thanks for the suggestions. I used solid explorer and it seemed like it worked. Permissions were still 777 after reboot, but I still don't get mobile data. My network says "Sprint" instead of "Domestic Roaming", at least.

Not getting mobile data is different than what this file does. This just fixes the displaying Domestic Roaming issue - it's just cosmetic.
I had no data issues on that ROM. The One m7 lacks some of Sprint's LTE bands and well it's Sprint, but that's not a ROM issue. Maybe try flashing back to a Sense ROM and updating Profile and PRL and then flash back to RR.
Your GitHub link to the list of roaming indicators seems to 404.

Thanks! I've fixed the link to a similar one. The original link was the same file as this one and both only seemed to include Sprint. But, you can find Verizon there as well. As for others, you may need to search to get the right numbers.

Hmm... I looked and that's the exact ROM I tested it on. You'll find my post on the first page and yours is on the second. I don't think I installed a different su program like SuperSU. Two ideas:
1. Make sure you give Root Browser permanent root access.
2. Try a different file manager. I used Solid Explorer with no issue. If you don't want to buy it, try other free ones first. I think MiExplorer (I think that's its name) is free on XDA and is nice.

AFter having a similar issue, and switching to Solid Explorer, I was able to change the permissions on the file, however it's still showing up as "Domestic Roaming". File is in /data and shows permissions as "777 -rwxrwxrwx"
Any help or ideas?
Thanks

Are you on Sprint? Also, what ROM are you running?
Yes I'm on Sprint. Just installed Resurrection remix 5.8.2

I think I tested on that one and it worked. If you followed the steps completely (restarted?), then I'm not sure why it's still telling you "Domestic Roaming" unless you truly are roaming.
Problem is, my m7 isn't activated anymore, so I can't really verify that nothing's changed with the ROMs since I tested things. Although they shouldn't have since I don't think they've been updated (I'm pretty sure I tested on 5.8.2 or RR).
