Flashing from stock T-mobile M8 topic

Just picked up a new T-mobile M8 after my GS4 decided to die on me. Been trying to read up everything, but just wanted to make sure before I started flashing. I'm currently on bone stock T-mobile 4.4.2 firmware. I'm looking to flash a GPe based firmware, like here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-...32015-t3010825.
1) I'm not interested in flashing kernels or converting to full GPe or whatever, so that means I don't need to S-Off correct?
2) Sounds like there are wifi issues flashing new lollipop roms? Should I accept the OTA updates to Lollipop before flashing or stay on 4.4.2?
3) Depending on above, the correct steps for me would be to: Accept OTA updates to Lollipop (?) --> Unlock bootloader --> Install recovery --> Install ROM from recovery. Am I missing anything??

Thanks!!!

[Q] Why is there no 3G on stock T-mobile ROMS? topic

D851 boot loop on T-Mobile screen topic

Bought a used D851. It is stuck in bootloop at the t-mobile screen. When i turn it on, shows LG logo, then green android icon for few seconds, then again LG logo. After about 1 minute, the white t-mobile screen shows up and stays for about 45 seconds and then screen goes black followed by white t-mobile screen again.

I have tried stock recovery with lg mobile tools. Also tried lg flash tools and everything goes fine, at the end, i get blue reset status 3 screen. Upon reboot, its back to boot loop. Also tried factory reset. With lg flash tools, when i choose "Board" then after reboot, it logs on to the minios menu but the screen is completely unresponsive. So when i again flash with "upgrade" selected, it flashes fine but continues the boot loop.

Please help.

Tmobile Note 4 on AT&T topic

Hey guys, I have a buddy who works for rent a center, he hooked me up with a tmobile note 4 and assured me it would work on AT&T. I've tried everything, it connects just fine, for about 3 minutes and then disconnects? But it is reading my sim. After 3 minutes though it disconnects and reconnects constantly. I'm beginning to think I need to sim unlock it.

Any ideas? Or has anyone gone through this? I'm not getting a sim unlock message either? Even after a reboot. And the phone is stock. Not rooted yet. Will root sim unlock it? With a different rom?

Any help is appreciated.

Thank u

T-Mobile 4G LTE Crazy fast! topic

OK, I am blown away at how fast T-Mobile 4G LTE is.
I get crazy speeds. Like over 85Mbps. I even get over 100Mbps at times. That's faster then my Comcast. LOL [emoji1] T-Mobile really does have the fastest 4G LTE in the Nation. I am loving T-Mobile service. Beats Sprint Spark LTE. Anyways what do you guys think? [emoji4]

T-Mobile Support Does Not Show an Upcoming Lollipop for G3 Update topic

T-Mobile does not mention a Lollipop update for the G3 on their official website. Does this mean that we won't get the update? Since I'm still a new member, I can't post links, so I had to modify the link. You should be able to Copy/Paste this address.

[Q] reasons NOT to buy from T-Mobile? topic

I bought my N5 thu amazon and a soon to be returned Moto X thru Motorola. I am sending the Moto X back and want to try the N6. Any reason not to get it thru T-mobile?

Wifi calling, tethering, anything I will be left out of?

The main plus for me is from my recent issue with the Moto X. I had no roaming on the Moto X in Canada. T-Mobile tried to help me out but took them 3 days to verify nothing was wrong. Found out I needed to create a new APN. After doing so and confirming it was correct with Moto cust. support it still did not work. Had I not been within my 14 days I wouldn't be able to return, if same happens thru T-Mobile they would replace.

[Q] Tmobile 4gLTE for AT&T UNLOCKED G900A topic

I've been searching far and wide.. Each theory to understand the failures that's inside. DUN DUN
So, anyways I have an AT&T unlocked and currently using it for TMOBILE.
I've read things from build.props changes to flashing band radios such as .33 to try to obtain 4gLTE.
Also changing APN settings. Went through t-mobile services at least 5 times through live chat and calling.
Went through AT&T live chat. EVEN WENT AS FAR TO CONTACT SAMSUNG.
Every attempt failed to help me achieve 4gLTE for Tmobile using the unlocked AT&T s5.
People said they are able to use their AT&T phones and have LTE for Tmobile.
But on the other hand people said it is not possible because the 2 carriers use different bands or radio towers or whatever.

So, can someone please tell me is there a solution to having and keeping LTE for T-mobile using an unlocked AT&T phone. It's been about 3 days of search after work and this search for the philosopher stone is tiring.

[Q] D6603 Can't get T-Mobile LTE topic

I have a shiny new copper Z3 in my hands and today I cut the T-mobile SIM from my Nexus 5 to be able to put in my Z3, however I am not getting LTE at all on it in places that I know it should. Went to the store and they checked the APN and they see no issue. I've downgraded to .93 be able to root, would flashing that FTF interfere with being able to get LTE?

tmobile return policy topic

I'm curious and wondered if anyone had any experience with trying to return a device after the 15/20 day window?

I'm at 29 days an want to return my note.

Anyone know how much fees associated with this? I still have my note 3 which was fully paid for.

Or, if there was a way to get outta any huge cancelation fees. I read the terms an it's was upwards of 0 +/- to end things on the payment plan early. But with it being so close, I was hoping NOT to have those.

Any suggestions?

[Q] Root T-Mobile LG Optimus L90 topic

So i have been furiously searching for ways to root my LG L90 from T-Mobile, but so far it has been a PAIN :mad:
I have tried TowelRoot... Failed
Some asian program called RootGenius... Failed
and other tutorials using ADB like adb reboot recovery.
None of those have worked, BUT i am proud to say that i now CAN access my L90 from ADB, before it said that it was offline and now its labeled as "device" as its supposed to. So now i can browse the root but of course not modify anything (because im still not rooted). So i know im a step close to rooting and im wondering if anyone has something that can help finish this painful process thanks to T-Mobile.
