Samsung Galaxy S4 MT6572 GT-I9500 no service solution !!! - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

hello ! after a week of testing ive finally found a solution for samsung galaxy s4 clone ( mt6572 gt-i9500 ). with no service !
Soo , you have no service and can't make calls ! follow this instructions and you will be talking on your phone in no time
Its very simple : ( i'll add the necessary links / software for this job )
1. you need SP_Flash_Tool_exe_v3.1316.0.150
2. you need the WORKING ROM ! modified by me
3. you need MtkDroidTools
( this version is allready modified to work with mt6572 )
The procedure :
we must first format the phone using SP_Flash_Tool_exe_v3.1316.0.150 . soo we open the program and select the scatter file.txt atached in the rom . hit format and then hit OK.
Now remove the battery and connect the usb cable to the phone. it will start formatting the phone. wait till is ready ( you will see a green circle )
At this point , the phone is ready to receive the new ROM
you have allready selected the scatter file early'r .
THIS STEP IS VERY IMPORTANT !!! uncheck the CACHE and USRDATA at the bottom.
Now hit Download button , you will get a warning message, just press YES
Now put the baterry back into the phone, and connect the usb cable. wait till the process end's and when you see the green circle you can disconect the phone, remove the battery, insert back the battery and power on the phone , and voila !! your phone have working network !!
Next step is to write the IMEI...
Use MtkDroidTools ( you must have debugging mode on in the phone ) connect the phone to the usb cable, wait till MtkDroidTools see your phone , and then hit the big imei button. There you must provide the imei number ( you can find it under the battery ) after that you hit write imei and then reset your phone and you are good to go
I presume that you allready have the usb drivers ( if not, i can also provide them )
For other questions use the forum below
If i have saved your day, maybe you consider making a small donation ( for that, use the DONATE TO ME button under my name )
Have a nice day !

Thanks for this tut, @pacattosul its very easy to follow, unlike some I've come accross, could I ask this?, will this not work by just using Mtkdroid tools as in the latter part of your tutorial? without the need of flashing a new rom?
Also I hope you dont mind a bit of constructive criticism, the developer of Mtkdroid tools @rua1 has specifically asked that his program is not placed on other sites for download, perhaps you could just change your post to link to his thread, here..... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2160490 Plus I do feel you are rather inviting problems by not specifying the details and build of your device that you have tested this method on, I don't have this phone but I'm sure there are quite a few different versions out there and the result of flashing the wrong preloader for your device can be a $200 paperweight, as I'm sure you know, and with that in mind I would stress that before embarking on this, a full backup is desirable in case it all goes t*ts up. Hope you don't mind my mentioning this stuff, if you decide to make those few minor changes, I'll edit and delete this paragraph, don't want to spoil your thread.

hello oscarblue48 !
i really don't mind that you point my mistakes... im actually happy cause as you say, MTKtools its somebody's work and should really be apreciated. BUT, this tutorial only work's with this special version of MTKtools !! i'm not responsable if you use any other tools/versions !!
you say that people may broke 200$ phone if they flash this rom... ok it may happend, but only if they mistake the model-version of the phone ! like ive say'd this tutorial and the rom only goes for MT6572 GT-I9500 SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 CLONE !! if they flash this rom on other devices they are responsible for what they do...
Actually , this rom goes for dead phones as well ( as i mentioned on other site ) , so i supose that most of the people , when they reach this tutorial, its for a good known reason
You also ask me if you can only use the mtktools... well you can easylly use that program, but you will probably not change anything inside that phone. most of the people try'd mtktool and complain that the imei remains null or empty after writing with this tool... soo in order to fix the annoyng NO SERVICE problem, i recommend that you follow the entire tutorial
I hope ive answered all your questions, and offcourse if you encounter any problem you can allways comeback and simply ask

Hi bro help me out here is my thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=50483872
I tried your rom but still not working i can enter to recovery mode with different preloader and doesn't show me black screen when turned on as my big problem is i can not format my nand as you will see in my thread i was messing up with boot logo via root as it was rooted with supersu...so any help please as i have tried alot roms and i can't find stock rom for this phone MTK6572_S00 samsung s4 this is made in korea by samsung...and I do not have backup of my rom...
Thanks in advance

Please help
Always getting - 4032(DRAM FAILED) while downloading- Followed same steps !
Appreciate any help
Update:
I have flashed it successfully - Also the IMEI, but still not registering to network.

be aware !! you have the dual sim ( 2 sim ) phone or single sim?? this only works for single sim phone... also, you must not try to flash this on dual sim phone !!
try this... go to settings and at the network tab change the connection mode... chose hspda preffered... that may do the trick !

@pacattosul would you please give me thelink file?cuse i'm having the same problem my device cannot detect any sim card my device is

are you using a 3G only sim card? hope you understand what i mean to say... there are normal sim cards that can connect on edge or 3g network and some other company's that only use 3g network... if you use one of this sim cards, please try another sim card just till you get on the network , and then you can switch to your regular sim card...
hope that help's you..

I think i found the problem , nothing to do with ROM i assume, it was all about IMEI, the IMEI given (as well as printed on device) seems invalid!!
Thanks anyways

Please could i have the link to the rom?
Many thanks

Could I also have the link for the rom and the usb drivers, please?

[Q] Hello @ all ...need help with my defy

Hi @ all,
1st i have to say thx, that i can reg me on that forum . Now to my actual question, im new in the android world, im very good in iOS stuff but now thats my 1st steps in the android world. I bought a used Motorola MB526 (i hope its a defy), and i think its tmo sim locked, because when i put my sim in i have the message "pin to unlock the sim network" on my display, i dont have any sim-pin or sim-lock on the sim itself.
And cause im new with that, i dont know what steps i have to do now :/ I have some specs from it :
Code:
SystemVersion:
45.0.1251.MB526.T-Mobile.en.DE
Modell:
MB526
Android Version:
2.3.5
Baseband Version:
EPU93_U_00.60.00
Kernel Version:
2.6.32.9-gbdd614e
[email protected] #1
Build Number:
4.5.1-134_DFP-1251
I hope someone can help me out, thx alot in advance
there are serveral ways:
1. you pay a "service" to calculate your unlock code by giving them your imei, country and net-provider
2. you can have a look at the links in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1464645
-root your phone
-install cm7 (which of course i would only do after reading a LOT of stuff here in this forums of course)
-install the software from the external links
-run it
both ways are somewhat risky and you might have a chance to loose some money (1. way) or your phone (2.)
if you have not done it already i would also recommend some searching. there are quite some topics around on this.
cheers
Thanks alot for the reply . I surfed the tmo wepsite, and on it there is a "sim unlock" section where i can enter my imei, i did that and became an unlock code directly on their homepage. And it works
Now i can with my eplus carrier with that defy . Now i have another question, can i update the oS that is installed on the device ? You see my specs above Android Version etc. is that okay or can i go higher ?

Well you could always go higher and higher by rooting

Root rulez!
You do even own a Defy+.
Since I own the same phone i would recommend rooting the phone, install MS2Ginger 2.1 with all the patches you like and even V6 Supercharger, which is really a must-have! My Defy+ got considerably snappier with this script.
But regardless what you do: Do a NANDroid backup first after root!

M99 Google 4s

So I recently bought the m99 from fastcardtech, and rooted it easily with SuperOneClick. I am unable however to install ClockworkMod in any way or form on the device. It identifies itself as a G2x in the model, uses a MTK 6573 processor.
Anyone else have this phone and figure out a way, I'm completely lost and have search for a good week now trying to figure out a way to get ClockWorkMod on this thing.
(also I'm not sure if this is the correct forum to post this in, since there is no forum for my phone model).
Hi There ,
would you please tell me where can i download the original ROM or a full backup for this phone .. i got this phone yesterday and i managed to root it and delete all the chinese apps .
Thanks
Hello

Hello
You have the M99 with Ui iphone?
Did you have the room original? Was nice we get this room available, before try the OC and new rooms.
Any bugs find yet?
Thanks
help me too.. is this a bug?
Did you have the market worked on your phone?
My version is 2.3.6 from android, but the markets i install open, then when i try to download some app they market (process com.vending.android) has stopped unexpectedly
You have this problem to?
Guys ..
To root this phone you have 2 options :
1- SuperOneClick 2.3.3
2- The Chinese root
both are listed at a thread called (Gooapple v5 issues) on this fourm . you also need to install the the drivers for this phone which btw are the same drivers for the GooApple v5 , cuz both phones use the MTK6573 .
for the market problem .. try to install an older market ver.
now I have the phone , but unfortunately things went south couple days ago when i installed some fonts from the android market and forgot to change the permissions . the phone now is stuck at start up logo ,, i tried the wipe and restore to factory options but nothing worked .. the only way i can get it to work is to flash it with the original rom again .i've contacted Fastcardtech to get the update.zip rom for the M99 Google 4s+ , but i haven't heard from them .
so if you have the update.zip rom for M99 Google 4s+ please post a link so i can download it ..
Thanks
Thanks for reply!
Wich market version you use?
Your M99 was from fastcardtech? android 2.3.6?
Well i can help you but im noob in android, how can i get this zip file, or maybe make a "image" of this rom phone like they came to send to you (if this is possible)

yes i got it from fastcardtech and it has the 2.3.6 with UI rom .
i'll keep looking and i will let you know .
Thanks

Hi guys, I am from the thread "Gooapple v5 issues" I could maybe help you as it is almost the same device.
@IIIVIII What happened to your phone?
Great News ..
i finally gained access to my phone's root while looping through Android Commander and i've managed to reset the permissions to the fonts and now the phone is alive and kicking
@ von275 & Mouratti .. Thank you guys for offering to help i really appreciate it .
here's how to get any Androidmarket ver working on the M99 :
1- root your phone.
2- install root explorer (attached)
3- copy the attached file (Vending) to your phone's root (system/app) and make sure u set the permissions as follows:
Owner: Read /Write
Group: Read
Others: Read
To make Google sync work for contacts do the same as the above steps for these attached files :
1-GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter
2-GoogleContactsSyncAdapter
btw. with root explorer you can remove all the unwanted chinese apps like youku etc. from your root (system/app) just don't go wild ..
i'll be coming back later on with more tweaks ..

I didn't try, im noob in this, and im afraid stuck my device.
Which room is it?
@von275
the stock recovery on the M99 only allows the official M99 update.zip rom to be installed .. it won't allow the gooapple nor any other rom to be installed trust me i've tried .. besides the M99 has 2 sims and a different screen so i really doubt that it would work even if we try it with a recovery that allows custom roms ...
@Mouratti
i don't have the official rom yet we should all e-mail Fastcardtech and ask them to provide the official rom for us to download .. sooner or later somthing will go wrong with our android sys and we will need to flash the official rom again .
regarding the calender .. i will look into it when i get home hopefully there's a simple fix for it .

[Q] How to return galaxy y to previous firmware?

I Just bought my galaxy y for 3 months and 1 day since last April 10 is the monthsary of my galaxy y . and i bought the phone last year (December 10,2011) but the stock firmware of my galaxy y is Android 2.3.6 and my Build Version is: GINGERBREAD.DXKK4 and my internal memory is 179 MB . But since i upgraded my phone via FOTA and the Build Version was changed into "GINGERBREAD.DXLA1" but after i performed a factory reset the internal memory of my phone is only about 165 MB . I Already emailed Samsung for this one and they answered this "The changes made to the latest software version is to improve the phone performance. The user memory or memory for storage was reduced a little to improve the capability of the processor. The actual memory of the hardware is still there, they just changed the partitioning of the memory since it is sharing with other memory componenets of the phone.
If you wish to go back to the previous version of your software, you may bring your phone to the service center. Please visit > Support > Service Locations to check on the nearest authorized service center from your location. Please select the correct product and product subtype then select the city. If no service center on the selected city, please choose other close city. " But i really want to go back to stock firmware "GINGERBREAD.DXKK4" without bringing my phone to service center since my phone is still under warranty and im scared if i will pay for the fee .

Please visit > Support > Service Locations to check on the nearest authorized service center from your location. Please select the correct product and product subtype then select the city. If no service center on the selected city, please choose other close city.

bro, as long as your phone is under warranty, you don't have to pay for anything; given that it was a factory defect. If you find it a hassle to go to the nearest service center, think of this, you are the one needing help so in order for them to fix that you have to do your part and bring that to the service center except of course if you have a valid reason like force majeure.
But the DXKK4 Stock ROM is not there

Why do you need DXKK4 so badly? When in fact you can try other firmwares. If you're worrying about warranty, you shouldn't be because flashing stock firmware doesn't increase your bin count; it's just like you've updated through kies
But..
But Samsung says to me the actual hardware of my old firmware is still there . I Think if i flash another firmware , The firmware will eat my internal memory again . Samsung Kies on my computer is telling me to update again to "GINGERBREAD.DXLC1" but the CSC of the firmware is still from my current firmware as of today "GINGERBREAD.DXLA1" . The difference is just the PDA and the PHONE that is LC1 from my LA1 firmware

the real question is..
have your queries been solved? are you satisfied with the current firmware you are on??
not so
Im not so satisfied with the firmware since the firmware doesn't do any changes . the latitude and google places icons are just changed but it's still in the same version when i was still in DXKK4 stock rom . My old android market has changed to the a newer one but not the PLAY Store that rolls out now on almost all android phones ( including my phone ) . Anyways thanks for your help guys . i'll just research here for earlier stock roms . or i'll just bring my phone to the Samsung Service center in SM Mall of Asia . You deserve a "Thanks" button guys
I don't get it...i have updated my firmware many times but it never changed my partition.

felt bad hearing that bro..
but still, best regards to you and your phone
You don't need to bother going to MOA bud. Look around the SGY section for dorky's firmware thread, he's got most of the firmware from last year to date.
One more thing, Google Play isn't included on updates simply because you're phone can download it automatically when it is connected to the Internet.

I found the solution on a polish websites.
You have to use unlockroot application.
I'm looking for a new ROM maybe new Android version for this phone?
At the beginning I tried to root the phone with the Zhoudashi but it didn't work but now I have a problem with the phonebook.
When I have an incoming call the name is not match from the phonebook - I see only the phone number
As the name of SIM1 and SIM2 I have the china letters and even the hard reset does not solve these problems. Of corse I can change the name for the SIM card but I think my ROM has been modified by zhoudashi application.
What can I do to fix it?
Easy Way!

Well, do not know how to stay out of this with google translation , I hope I explain well
the problem is because the white lines was safe settings as the previous rom flash with new rom the previous settings in the nand flash was not loaded ok ... I also passed through the white lines
We split ... from what I 've seen in the descriptions of your phone have the same but with different names, things Chinese , the same processor and the same specifications of memory ram and rom also the cameras and the screen, which is 480x854 resolution . Ok , here is the rom to retrieve the phone , that if after trying several times hehe, well I found the problem when I put it to recover that failed was just starting BKF_NV , well after trying and trying , reaching the following configuration : wITH ResearchDownload 2.9.7007 ( that I use ) drivers " SciU2S " installed 'll Options ( second tab ) and give it to " Repartition " and "Reset to Normal", then the third is backup pesteña delete all options, then on the fourth tab view all options are removed and clean but the last putting Erase All Flash and loaded .... if flashing goes well start playing nothing but end with the word Orro .
do not use the left upgradedownloader because not configure
here is the rom that I use:vvv.vvv.vvv.needrom.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/S18_JHT_DS_ORRO_FT5306_256M_EN_V02-A9500.zip[/url]

the phone in china cost around 50 pounds, i think to buy one more download software with all data etc. save in pac format and reflash the old one.
Problem is because i'm not sure the free software can make full backup and save to pac format
Volcano box can due this only is cost around 100 pounds
I brought two of those model's for my niece and nephew for x-mas. After they unpacked it and set it up, they notice some of the buttons are not working. So after contacting the seller directly over the phone they emailed me two of the firmware. it was hit and miss, one work perfectly on one phone and so was the other.
****EDIT***** sorry I can't post outside links. so, they are both uploaded to my mediafire
/download/zqsnu8ma1izvrcv/
and
/download/um14hr6ib630ttd/
just add the mediafire url at the beginning and it should lead to the download. If you need the whole link for some reason just PM me.
They are both in .PAC format to be use with researchdownload. And one more thing make sure on the Calibration tab, uncheck everything or else it will fail at FDL2. The older one label the V06 has more option but just make sure nothing is checked also.
My phone model is the HTM GT-T9500-B SC6820 with the 5" screen. So try them both. :fingers-crossed:

Hi, I believe that I have the same problems you had, just 4 years later on, unfortunately it looks like @mrkoykangs files are no longer available on mediafire. By some amazing miracle you wouldn't happen to still have a copy? Many thanks in advance!
