No first's. ???

Pp.

Is the "Mobile hotspot" and "data" on the Notification panel (when you swipe your finger from the top of the phone) ???

Or is it the same as the Tmobile version, Mobile hotspot is on a separate app in the app drawer, and mobile data can only be accessed under settings menu?

Thanks

everything seemed to work, but after flashing the Modem.bin And NON-HLOS.bin I no longer have any sound. Anyone else having a similar issue? I think it was really the non-hlos.bin that screwed things up. Any way to undo what it did? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Haha tomorrow or Saturday. Drove 400 and something miles today for work and last thing I'm doing is sitting down and messing with Android stuff

The nonhlos.bin version must match the bootloader version. For example, if you have the NB7 bootloader, you need to have the NB7 nonhlos.bin. Flash the proper nonhlos.bin.

Thanks for the reply. How can I find out what bootloader I have? I pretty much had rooted my MetroPCS S4 shortly after I bought it back in July of 2013. It was still using Jelly bean 4.2.2. with older firmware M919NUVUAMF2. I hope that info helps. Would I need to find a different nonhlos.bin file or update/upgrade my bootloader? I'm really SOL right now cuz I can't make phone calls. At least I can still recieve texts. Thanks again for any help?

July of 2013 means your warranty is up so tripping knox would be no issue. I'd completely update with the firmware then you can not worry about stupid mix match problems

One last question. I just download the huge M919NUVUFNI3_M919NTMBFNI3_M919NUVUFNI3_HOME.tar.md5 stock firmware file. In which slot do I put that in? I'm using Odin 3.09. The slots are labled: PIT, BL, AP, CP and CSC. Thanks again.

AP. Uncheck auto reboot, flash it, when done pull battery, back to download mode and flash it again and reboot. Just to be 100. Sometimes bootloader and/or modems have a issue writing to the device.

Edit: Looks like you're flashing the firmware...good choice.

If you've never flashed a different firmware then you would need the nonhlos.bin from the MF2 firmware. You can find that firmware at this link, under firmware...

Alternately you could just flash the new NI3 firmware like shiny suggested. It would be easier altogether. Your manufacturer warranty has expired so updating the bootloader is no longer an issue.

Everything went off smoothly, thanks guys. I'm now on the latest stock MetroPCS 4.4.4 firmware.

The firmware? No. Mobile odin doesn't flash bootloaders.

Modems should be able to yet I've never used it
