So how can I do it.. and IF is good Idea. The reason is that I don't like this google thing all over control my phone and I ear is possible to change it for a custom made. So you put what you want in your own phone... I appreciated all your inputs... Thanks ...

hello everyone, im currently using a samsung mini for mainly wifi tethering as i need it for the net i am on the one plan tariff ,the problem i have is
i cant seem to get optimum speeds from this device no matter what i try what rom i have tried its all the same. but if i use my sim in other phones like a htc device i get nearly double the speeds and super smooth ,now as far as i am aware you dont need too much cpu power to run wifi tether
the handset is set at 600mhz and i can overclock it up to 864 mhz ,also when i recieve a phone call it interrupts the tethering i have to turn off and turn on the data connection as it gets stuck on hspa sign with the arrow only pointing upwards then it after i reset it all is fine ,
can someone please advise me how i can optimise this handset specifically for tethering as i dont use any other apps and dont need anything else apart from messaging ,phone calls and tethering .if someone can help me tweak this handset i would really appreciate it .as i have faith in this little handset its done well but also has many flaws when it comes to tethering ,i tried diffrent tethering apps but they all do the same mistakes and i cannot surpass past 500kbps a sec but again on any htc device i can hit over 1mbit! so why is this? even a htc desire c which is similar handset to this phone runs smoother .surely there must be a way to optimise the handset for optimal performance on tethering .
thank you and hope to get a reply back about this
flash stock rom of your region as you will then have a radio specially created for your region which will make signal reception much better
dear sir ,,, i am on the 3 network in uk ,and i cannot find the firmware which is the original stock rom for this phone .i have searched google
if you have a link for the original firmware for this handset could you please share it
thank you
are you using any carrier branded mobile
I think not
in the dialer type *#1234# you will get version number type them here
dear sir again thank you for replying back to me very grateful ..
this is what it shows once i typed in what you asked
PDA : 5570xwktn
PHONE : 5570XWKT6
on the side note i got this handset originally from 3 network with its original firmware but i never backed it up via nandroid ,.i flashed cwm on it also unlocked the sim side using the tutorials on xda to make it sim free .again i have tried just about every single custom rom made for this handset and none optimises it so hoping if i revert it back to its original rom will fix my issues with tethering ,and i would like to make my own rom for it with only messaging,telephone,tethering nothing more if that will make a diffrence a very light rom with only these few features would you let me know please so i can work on this .thank you sir
http://androidadvices.com/update-galaxy-mini-s5570-xwktn-gingerbread-236-firmware/2/
above is a guide
but you are saying your mobile is carrier branded so the firmware may not work
thank you sir ,i will try it but the handset doesn't have a 3 network badge on it only says samsung ,and they gave me the handset when i first got the contract .I will try that firmware and thank you for your kind help ,god bless
Dear Sir,
I Am Very Grateful For Your Kind Help & It Seems You Have Fixed My Issue Since I Flashed This Firmware The Phone Is Running Fantastic & Connections Seems Much Smoother Than ever before .,,God Bless & Thank You Again ..Would It Be Possible To Use This Firmware Strip It Down All The Extra Apps Embedded In It ? I Would Like To Strip This Rom Apart Make It Very Light
can be stripped down but it is really a hard work to do you may end soft bricking the device
but what you can do is root your phone then go to /system and remove all those useless apps which are not needed by system and you
i am using the firmware you told me to use which software can i use to root it sir ?
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/an...ad-root-unroot-2-3-3-2-3-7-a.html#post2130907
go to the above page and download the file according to your carrier then flash it in stock recovery you will get root
then use the app like systemapp remover to remove the unwanted system apps
to all those who have had similar issues with wifi tethering no matter what application was used for tethering i finally found the what was the problem!
i mainly use the samsung mini galaxy for only wifi tethering and had the problem of it stopping working due to the power save mode set to enabled in the wifi section of the phone ! ..i have tried just about every single rom i can find and still had the same issue even with a stock rom which dheeraj was kind enough to show me how to use the proper stock rom for my phone but that still didn't solve my problem so i done major research on this problem and found this menu which enables or disables the power saver option for the wifi and once you disable it the problem is solved! since i figured this out over 48 hours of good use and still running rock solid how it should be! the only problem is when you reboot the phone you must go back to the menu to disable power saver mode as it reset's back to it's default setting which is power saver mode enabled .
*#*#232338#*#* shows wifi mac address is how to enter this menu and disable power saver mode .,this code will only work on original stock roms or roms which is no higher than 2.3.6 .figured this out also trying various roms so no choice but to use a old rom to use this feature once you set it dont reboot the phone unless you need to . hope this will help others who use this little handset for tethering purposes and i want to thank xda developers for the wonderful work they accomplish for all of us to get the best out of our handsets god bless you all
Any chance someone can link me to the best or latest rom for tmobile that supports wifi-calling? I searched up and down, maybe it was due to a long day at work with idiot users that cant figure out how to even turn their computers on.. I just could not find it.
I wish I had better service at my house since I love this phone but without wif-calling its becoming hard to use it for what it is, a phone.
thanks a ton in advance
Hi everybody,
first of all sorry for my bad level in english. I will try to be clear.
I would like to know if it s possible to add to the s3mini i8190 the security assistant that we found on the s4 or s4mini originally.
Why ? because my company is working in Caracas(Venezuela) and it s very dangerous. and we have only s3mini.
So the interest for me and my company is having this function actives, like this in case of attack, pushing at same time vol up and down, the mobile send automatically short alert message at a frecuency predeterminated to a list of contact determinated too with alert message and GPS position.
Many thanks in advance for your help to solve this case.
So, nobody to help me with my problem or that could be telling more about ?
Is it technically possible to have a similar program on the SIII mini like on S4 o S4mini ?
That i want to know is it a hardware problem or the infactiblity to detect the doble push on volume down and up.
Or it s only a software problem in this case may be is it possible to modifiy the S4 asistance security software.
thanks in advance for your answer.

It might be possible. The problem, I think, is that the feature is part of Touchwiz (Samsung's custom User Interface) and that is propietary software. The option would be that someone who has both phones could extract the code from S4 and then try to port it back. There are a lot of possible problems to consider and it would take time. So it would be tecnically possible in my opinion, the thing is finding someone with the time, knowledge and resources to do that
Need help can't find firmware for sm-n950xu to flash my note 8 to stock stuck on bootloop. Any help would be much appreciated.
Demo units are not suposed to be used as regular units, as they are not intended to be sold to anyone, they behave differently from regular standard devices, there are several posts around here about the same issue, and there is no easy fix, the best course of action is to get a model without an "x" in its model designation
Not trying to make it a working phone just want it back to retail. Any HELP would be appreciated.
I read about someone trying to do what you want, but he could not reverse the situation, once he tryed to flash a normal rom, the device became unusable
There's no way to get back to factory then is what u r saying I highly dought that to be true. Not wanting a diff rom on it.
then fix it.
I would love two but have never came across this issue before and was just asking for someone with more knowledge to help solve the problem.
Ok, so I bought the ROG Phone 2 on AliExpress a few weeks ago on Black Friday because I really needed a new phone. After reviewing the page details I found out that the seller puts the global rom on himself because it comes by default with the Chinese rom. Will this still work for banking apps and OTA updates? Can I make it work somehow? Had I known in advance that it wouldn't be the Real global version I wouldn't have bought it, but since I've waited so long to get it, I'd just assume make it work myself, rather than go through the whole hassle to return it. I don't know much about custom rom's and what is / isn't possible, so I am at a loss as to what to do, or how I can check what kind of phone it is when I get it. Any help would be much appreciated so thanks in advance!
Here is the page where i bought it, because it has some more information on specifics: "aliexpress.com/item/4000106113494.html?spm=a2g0s.12269583.0.0.5fd61d0e5SUkH5"
Also side question, since the seller changed the rom himself should I be possibly concerned with keylogger or anything?
1. I shouldn't worry too much about keyloggers etc. but if you are, just run a good virus scanner when you get the device...
2. With regard to banking apps, they mainly have issues with being rooted... which you won't be.
3. Regarding OTA's, assuming the fingerprint has been changed, you can see this thread for an app that allows updates to be enabled, providing you aren't rooted or anything.
But, if they haven't changed the fingerprint (you can check using device info HW under 'system') then you'll need to follow one of the guides on the forum to change it yourself... here's one... change fingerprint
Is there a way to unlock the bands, or is that strictly a hardware issue?
