Hello Friends!

After installing Neat Rom 4.2 without any mod I lose network connection. Only wifi works. I am from Argentina using Movistar as my provider.

Any help will be very welcome. Thanks in advance,

Glore2002.-

Hi glore2002!

The problem is that the modem in this release is possibly not the best for you, as I seem to remember you had a problems on Movistar before. Unfortunately, the GB and ICS modems are not compatible with JB and since there have only been 2 JB releases to-date, Spain and China, you may struggle on signal until a dedicated modem for your location is released in a firmware up-date.

Just a suggestion, try flashing the Full NEAT version instead of Lite.

I'm running Neatrom Full and have flashed the Aroma 4.2b mods. All is working well.
Only thing is I have now lost the ink unlock screen effect I flashed before when on LSJ.

Does anyone have a link to an update that will let me chose lockscreen unlock effects, such as ripple or ink that works with LS8. Don't want to mess with anything else at this stage, just looking to be able to change between lockscreen effects.

Hello!

After flashing Neat Rom Lite 4.2 I would like to check my phone keeps unlocked. But entering *#7465625# to see if everything is OFF, nothing happens. I thinks this is because the code changed or I am doing something wrong.

How can I check my phone is unlocked?

If it is not unlocked anymore which is today the best way to unlock it?

Thanks again for your help!

glore2002... I made a mistake in my reply to you, here.

You could just flash a GB or ICS modem to JB but NOT the RIL as it is the RIL that will cause the problems. Not flashing a compatible RIL should not make a whole heap of difference to your phone. Therefore, if there was a modem that was particularly good for you in the past, give it a go after you have made a nandroid backup.

As for unlocking, the easiest method to test is by slipping another carriers sim card into your phone. If it is locked, then there are a few app's on the Play Store that claim to unlock an SGSII, not to mention that a few mobile phone shops also offer this service.
