Disables by rent it center need 4 digit pin

Samsung Galaxy S4: Rent A Center Disable Locked it: Need 4 digit code to unlock: Hello. The unlock code you need is specific to that phone. The only way to get the pin to unlock is from RAC. They have remote locked it. The files for this remote lock are hidden and embedded within the firmware. So, even if you factory reset and wipe the dalvik cache, it will still be locked. From what I understand.. as time goes by, the debt you owe will be transferred to a Debt Collector and your credit will suffer from the derogatory for seven years If you really want to use this phone.. There is a way.. You will not be able to use the Samsung firmware software that runs on the phone any more.. but you can wipe all data on it, and put on another ROM firmware, but it will be virgin Android. Meaning basic Android phone options.. See the attached link for instructions to do this: Reference Link: rent center locked galaxy s5

Very poor cell reception

Do you have a case on your phone? Aluminum cases will reduce signal. What about a tin roof on your house. That can affect it if you are far from a tower. Some models of phones have also had defects causing that. Warranty would cover it.

When I connect it to bt wifi, it says the signal is strong.

Connecting to a Wi-Fi network does not means you will get an Internet connection. That all depends how the Wi-Fi router is attached to the true network by Ethernet, DSL (phoneline), or cable modem.You must contact the network owner or administrator to confim why you cannot get an Internet connection even if the Wi-Fi connection is strong.

No audio sounds when the samsung s4 is on.

Try connecting a wired headphone to the jack and make a new call. If you can hear the other person, yhe internal speaker may be bad. Keep using the wired headphone, or use a Bluetooth headphone until you decide to upgrade the phone. I recommend the S6 or S8 (the even number model are better).
