    4.3 V2?

    I also received the update yesterday. It looks like the baseband and kernel were updated as well.

    Here's how to force update 4.3 OTA on your GS4 GPE

    If anyone else is having problems getting the 4.3 OTA to install because they are not on the MFD baseband, here is the fix. I was able to flash the MH1 baseband from the 4.3 OTA and then download and install the 4.3 OTA update.

    Here's how to force update 4.3 OTA on your GS4 GPE

    I have tried this method. It does not restore the baseband to the MFD version. I am still on MFP. I'm trying to find an ODIN flashable baseband that I can apply. Don't know how else I'd get back to the MFD baseband. It looks like someone posted it yesterday at XDA, but the file isn't available...

    Here's how to force update 4.3 OTA on your GS4 GPE

    Thanks for the info. That's great that the update worked for you. The link you shared is actually the image and method I used to restore my phone a few weeks ago. I just used it again to restore my phone, but the 4.3 update still gives an error during the install. I ran the update immediately...

    Here's how to force update 4.3 OTA on your GS4 GPE

    Thanks for the info. I haven't removed any apps with Titanium Backup and AFAIK I have the stock recovery. I did flash a custom recovery on it before, but then flashed the stock 4.2.2 image back. Maybe something is wrong with the image I flashed? Is there an "official" 4.2.2 image available...

    Here's how to force update 4.3 OTA on your GS4 GPE

    Glad you got it. I didn't watch the upgrade process after I clicked on the "reboot and update" button. When the phone booted back up I saw that I was still on 4.2.2 :-( I went through the steps again, and yes it does take many attempts before it'll work. When it rebooted into recovery to apply...

    Here's how to force update 4.3 OTA on your GS4 GPE

    I tried many times as well, and did not receive the update. I then followed the steps above, but this time I unchecked the "show notifications" box. I went to check for a system update, and got the prompt that the 4.3 system update is available. It says that the update is available "via Wi-Fi...

    T-Mobile Hotspot on GE S4

    Re: T mobile Hotshot on GE S4 Hard for me to say really. This is the first GSM phone I've had & used on T-Mobile since my Nexus S a few years ago, so it's difficult for to compare the penetration of signals. In the areas of L.A. I've been in HSPA signal strength seems to be a lot stronger than...

    T-Mobile Hotspot on GE S4

    Re: T mobile Hotshot on GE S4 My 1-2 bars of LTE reception have all been inside of buildings. I haven't had a chance to test it outdoors yet. I can report back again tomorrow after I see what kind of signal strength I get in my office building.

    T-Mobile Hotspot on GE S4

    Re: T mobile Hotshot on GE S4 I've only had it a little more than a day now, and have not had a chance to test it out in many areas. Speedtest results have been between 4-6Mbps down and 3.5-9Mbps up the few times I've tested. I only had 1-2 bars of LTE signal at the places I ran speedtests...

    T-Mobile Hotspot on GE S4

    Re: T mobile Hotshot on GE S4 I just tested it with a T-Mobile SIM in the phone. I can confirm that WiFi Hotspot works on the i9505G. I'm trying out the $30/month Unlimited data/text, 100 minute plan.

    Exchange Server Issue S4 Google Edition

    Not sure if this is what's causing your issue, but worth a shot. Are you by any chance part of a Domain Administrators security group within your Exchange organization? If you are, you'll have to change a setting on your account within ActiveDirectory to activate an ActiveSync device. In Active...
