Got the updated voice mail yesterday on the Note2. You can have a black background again! Now I see slacker updated to the ugly white background. Yuck! And they uglified the heck out of it.

Here is the easy way to update to MA6 if rooted.

Go to http://goo.im/devs/f..._LJ7_to_MA6.zip and download the file.

Put the zip on your EXTERNAL SD CARD!

Make sure you have the latest CWM on your phone. If you DO NOT know what i'm talking about than DO NOT attempt this up date with this process. Lastest CWM is v6.0.1.2.

1.Flash the SPH-L710_LJ7_to_MA6.zip in CWM.

2.Go to Wipe cache directory.

3.Go to Advanced and wipe the dalvik cache.

After the process has finished scroll to Reboot Phone.

CWM is going to ask you two questions.

1.CWM will say that stock recovery has been chosen, do you want to ignore that change, keeping CWM. Select YES

2.CWM will then say that root might be removed, do you want to fix this? Select YES

After the phone reboots it will show updating andriod. Let it finish its thing and you know should have MA6 and still be rooted.

If for any reason you do not understand these directions or do not have any idea what CWM is or how to install it DO NOT ATTEMPT this. I am not responsable if you brick your phone.

Robert or a MOD please feel free to remove this if you think it should not be here.

Just trying to give some help.

This is what you should have after you done with the update.

I got the update this morning... and yes, damnit, it seems to have removed or relocated the prl write ability.

 

Digiblur, any idea if this feature is hidden elsewhere now or if a code on the dialer maybe exists to force it? I am mildly familiar with the non samsung method but not nearly as fond

I will have an update soon like I have done for the Note2 that removes the code prompt 100% when pressing ##DEBUG#. Thinking of changing mine to #9# to make it easy ;)

FInally got the ota update this morning. Been checking every day.

 

Edit: Had a second update after the first one finished. Screen said this one was 3.0 MB. Not sure on the first one.

Is there any way to make the update message go away? I received the update, but don't want to lose the prl writing ability. It's annoying to get the update message so many times during the day.

Obnoxious, ain't it? It was driving me bonkers too until I activated my new Optimus G this evening.

I'm pretty sure if I root the phone it'll be no big deal - I'm just too lazy. Let me know your impressions of the Optimus G after a few days.

If anyone wants me to do a ROM for the S3 like I did for the Note2 please chime in. I might be able to do it in the blind without the device but if anyone has one I could borrow for a couple of weeks it would help out quite a bit. Or maybe even purchase if the price was right. We could call it the S4GRU S3 ROM ;)

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      Unable to confirm if it's really off but I noticed this morning that I'm no longer connecting to Band 41 on my home site. Switching my phone to LTE-only pretty much always put me on Band 41 since it was the least used band on T-Mobile's network. Now I'm only able to connect to Band 2/66. Not complaining because it means speeds are faster on LTE and maybe 150MHz n41 is around the corner.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.

      Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
