Hello, a friend of mine bought a S3 from america but now lives in germany, the phone only had english, canadian and french as system languages, so i rooted it for him and installed a custom rom, carbon rom 4.2.2 and have set it on german, but whenever i insert a sim card it asks for a network code and he cant call or have 3g because he doesnt have network.
what should i try to do, change the apn settings?
i also tried editing the nv_data.bin, but since its a custom rom there is none in the root efs folder of the device, i really need help making this device working, any advice or suggestions?

Doesn't Work For AT&T SGH-I747
Hey, While you're busy being a demeaning know-it-all you should know that procedure DOESN'T work for all the Stock AT&T phones.
I have a Stock AT&T SGH-I747
After Selecting PERSO SHA256 OFF and going back my number 4 option reads: "[4] RAT_FREE_SUPPORITNG ON"
I did not mis-spell that either.
It would be nice if you could help instead of acting superior.
Thanks

If you had followed the rules of the site and searched for your information before posting you would have found it covered in great detail that you must be on android 4.1.1 for this method to work, but instead you decided to just cry about it.

There's no crying, I just tire of some of the brainiacs here acting superior instead of actually helping. I did see that, however I'm also not sure about how to go about doing that and "some" people suggested trying it anyway, so I did.
Everyone is aware you can go buy an unlock code for $25-$30, and it will work around all of these little roadblocks, but we're supposed to be here to help each other. So, someone much smarter than you figured out how to do this to the phone in whatever version the phones current state is.
You're just quoting other people, not offering any help
Now, if "You" are aware of a procedure to accomplish this the way the phone sits then please offer some help, otherwise Lose The Attitude and try treating people with a little respect.

Pretty simple if you ask me, which you just did. Flash back to stock 4.1.1, spend the money, or call your carrier and try your luck with them.

So... Basically you don't know how to do it. You're just running your mouth here on the forum trying to act more intelligent than you really are.
Do you think I needed your input to figure out the "spend the money, or call your carrier" options?
I wanted to try the forum to see if I could find a way to do it Safely and without spending any money.
Over the years there have been quite a few intelligent and helpful people and they have provided valuable information.
You, however have only proven your uselessness to everyone. In the future either help or keep quiet!

Searching the forums is always the fastest way....

Okay. I know it's asking a lot from you but let's think for a minute. Everything I have read says the phone has to be on 4.1.1. The method you are trying which is, using the dial pad to access the phone settings and not purchasing an unlock code or calling your carrier, only works for 4.1.1 which you obviously are not on currently, hence your predicament. Since you lack the skills to search and read how to downgrade, like you stated, the only other options are to purchase the code or call your carrier. He gave you all three options that work and you are saying he is useless? Your comments are the most useless comments I have read in a long time. It's like trying to make sense out of nonsense. You are asking for something that doesn't exist and it doesn't take much "intelligence" to figure that out. Good luck.
P.S. I have a 66 Thanks Meter and only 156 posts. How helpful are your posts?
Wow, I hope you made yourself feel better now. Are you two related somehow?
Look Dink! - For Starters this was back in December, is your life that empty?
Second, I'm not the one claiming to know everything, apparently you do...
As I stated, I came looking for help and "good" advice.
You Are Truly Pathetic.
You obviously have nothing to offer either
Please find someone to change your diaper
And In the future either Help or Keep Quiet!!!
You whiney little thumbsucker.

First, do not insult anyone. Its easy to sound tough over the internet. I can bet and guarantee that you would never in your life walk up to someone and say any of that.

Second. This isn't a help website or a walk thru guide. Go to YouTube. The only one being a "thumbsucker" here is you due to the fact you keep crying about this, and looking for someone to hold your hand. Use the damn search feature and do work for yourself.
Third. As of now, no one will help you, you're screwed. So good luck "though guy"
Take your own advice and insults.

did you have any luck … I’m having the same issue…. and as far as the senior advisor that chooses to mock people that are seeking help… well that is just childish and unworthy of his title here… I thought this was a help community…. Very disappointed.

One you replied and disappointed by a very old post.
Two if you search you will find the root method right here that works on all versions, we don't like to spoon feed , when you have problem or stuck many will help, you ask how to do something that has been asked 100 times and already available, well you asked for it.
Three learn how to ask help, simply writing can someone point me to the root post will make many to post, instead of you writing all this useless crap.
Four simple looking not even searching will made you see these...

no worries mate, I’m not one to be spoon fed. I can handle my queries. I think the dignified way to have done things would have been to post a link with to the proper direction. like this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38886073#post38886073
which is asked 100 time and seen by your eyes you would have know where to send someone instead of posting that humiliating note to the other user. I think it would have taken less energy and would have made a difference instead of being a negative experience to the novice.
by the way that is the link to the root method and instructions on how to do it. and here is the link for the you tube video on how to do it step by step…

I actually found the info I was looking for shortly after I posted the original response… I hope you understand that I was not directing anything at you. I dont get why you are taking offense to the post as it was not meant for you.
Thank you for your effort to try and help. it is commendable. there is no need for us to quarrel over egos
Again thanks for your help and effort.

I did that because you pointed towards kimitza, now he might not be correct all the time, his answers might be rude, but he is the one answering most of the queries here, plus don't know how many private messages he might be getting.
Think this way, if i talk about me, I'm here for 4 years answering same type of questions for different devices all those years, and i usually jump in the post if some one didn't replied for some time, instead some people will post to every question when they see it, they are bound to get agitated over time.

It might seem like a stupid question, but I cannot find the answer after extensive search so please bear with me. The model of Huawei Watch available in my region is Huawei Watch W1 Mercury-G00. Is this something different from he standard Huawei Watch, or the same? I just need verification before making the plunge and buying this. Any help will be highly appreciated.
Mercury was the code name given to the watch whilst it was in development. This was so it could be referred to without using the final product title. As far as I know there is currently only 1 model (Hardware build) of the W1 and only the straps differ. The ladies editions will also be released "in Q1 2016"
As it stands if you buy a Huawei Watch it will be the same as everyone elses bar the strap choice.
Thank you so much! I'll take the plunge!
