    Post TOWELROOT

    I just wanted to confirm that towelroot works on my Verizon S4 mini SCH-I435 on 4.4.2 (KOT49H.I435VRUBNE1). I had root before on 4.2.2 and then updated with Kies, and used towelroot right away. Just had to use the modstrings. In towelroot click "welcome to towelroot v3" 3 times and enter "1337 0...

    Post [Q] What is the status on the Verizon s4 mini?

    It doesn't have roms because there's no recovery for this device due to the bootloader being locked. We need a workaround before anything can be done. Sent from my SCH-I435 using XDA Free mobile app

    Post Q - Who's working on SCH-I435 & Where's it @

    If I understand correctly you're trying to use an unlocked phone with your Verizon SIM? You can't use any AT&T or international phones on Verizon.. AT&T uses GSM technology while Verizon uses CDMA. The SIM card for Verizon is only for 4G data. Sent from my SCH-I435 using xda app-developers app

    Post Samsung Galaxy S 4 LTE SPH-L520 question

    Well one rather big difference of the Sprint S4 mini (SPH-L520) versus the international models (GT-I919X) is that it uses CDMA networks rather than GSM. I am not sure if you can use it on GSM networks with a sim card. I do, however, know that the Verizon version (SCH-I435) which is also CDMA...

    Post i257m no lte only h+

    Yes, it does get LTE for sure. I believe regionlock away has an option to revert the changes it made. In order to unlock your phone the normal way you'd need to buy an unlock code. As I said I bought the phone unlocked already so I can't really help with that.. EDIT: Also keep in mind I an...

    Post i257m no lte only h+

    I got an unlocked Telus SGH-I257M (I presume it was unlocked with a code) and it worked fine once I changed the APN. It could be a problem with regionlock away but I'm not sure. Sent from my SCH-I435 using xda app-developers app

    Post [Q] Where to get least expensive S4 mini?

    For AT&T in the US it would be better to get an unlocked S4 mini from Canada for the LTE compatibility. Not sure where to find one though. I got one on ebay for about $400 USD back in December but a quick search doesn't get me any results now. If you don't care about LTE or NFC you could get...

She dislikes using the stock messaging app and prefers to use Google Hangouts for SMS as she did on her old phone. The issue is that it will not notify or say that theres a new text message...

    Post S4 mini LTE only H+ not 4G

    I'm pretty sure the I9195 cannot support AT&T 4G at all, but maybe rooting or software could change that, I'm not sure. I've seen them on CanadaGSM and some other sites but I got one off eBay for about $390 USD + $16 shipping.

    Post S4 mini LTE only H+ not 4G

    The I9195 doesn't support AT&T's LTE bands. You would only get up to 3G. You can however get an unlocked I257M model from Canada and use for AT&T with LTE.

    Post SCH-i435 questions (firmware, CWM, unlock)

    The I435 is not the same as the I919x phones. Since it's verizon, it uses CDMA technology rather than GSM. I think it may work with GSM carriers outside of the US but I'm not sure. Since the phone hardware is different than the I9195 I dont think flashing that firmware would be a good idea...

    Post [Q] LG Optimus Exceed (aka LG Lucid) VS840PP won't take a root

    You may have to install the baseband for the Exceed. I think in the CyanogenMod beta thread on AndroidForums there is a link but I'm not sure. Use ROM Manager to install CWM Recovery and then Flash CM10.
