Hi,
From some other threads it seems that it's possible to check the phone's brand etc on the phone:
Model: X10i
Country: Generic GLOBAL
Brand: Generic
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Under settings -> about the phone, I only have:
* Model: X10i
* Firmware version:
* Radio software:
* Kernel version:
* Build number:
Where is info about country and brand located?
Try this.
In the key lock screen, press "menu > back > back > menu > back > menu > menu > back"
A service menu should pop up. There should be a setting there somewhere that says "brand". If it says Orange under it then your phone is branded with their firmware. If that's the case then follow the debranding method either the one using pc companion or seus (up to you). Just make sure you download the latest firmware for the x10i and use that to debrand... and when you're done, your phone will be debranded as well as on the latest firmware. Just remember that you probably will have to re enter your apn settings, so don't freak out if your data doesn't work at the beginning.

They disabled those dialer codes on the note 3.
You need to flash a different firmware, preferably one from your country or provider.

im not sure what hidden menu your talking about but on my note 3 i use *#0*# for testing things and 319712358 for changing frequencies, like what HSDPA or LTE to use... ect
If NOTE3 in Factory TEST MODE = FTM
Then all hidden keystrings are activated.
So this morning I was fiddling with my Galaxy S5 (SM-G900W8). I was trying out those secret dialing codes because I kept getting a MMI error.
So anyway I launch up *#4636#* and I select "TURN OFF RADIO" and "TURN ON SMS OVER IMS" as per this website guide http://www.technobezz.com/fix-connection-problem-invalid-mmi-code/
As soon as I did that, my network was shut off and I tried re enabling it but it still won't turn back on. I tried factory reset, firmware install through Kies, took it to Telus, who didn't know what was wrong with it. I tried re entering my APN settings, selecting any Network in settings tells me "Your SIM won't allow connections to this network" even the network I am on (Telus)
I tried changing CSC, I am currently downloading firmware to flash in Odin, hoping that works.
But can anyone give me suggestions? I feel like since I just switched a setting, I should be able to turn one back on.
EDIT: Flashing official firmware in Odin did not work.

First, no need to screw up with those things such as changing APN or CSC...
I have turned off radio and then turned it on without problem.
So you can try to turn it on again.
Can you show the screenshots of it?

It actually says "Turn off Radio" every time I reboot so it seems to turn on that setting anyway. Which does nothing.

1- Got a question: in the 2nd screenshot, why it showed a full list of bands (Automatic/EURO/USA/Japan...), while in the 4th screenshot, the list is empty? In my device the list is always empty (as in your 4th screenshot), I don't know why.
2- If you have root, install Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app > Menu > 'Secret Codes' > *#197328640# > 'Launch 0' > BASIC INFORMATION (capture screenshot #1) > Menu - Back > NAS INFORMATION > MM INFORMATION (capture screenshot #2) > Menu - Back > MM REJECT CAUSE (capture screenshot #3).
3- If you don't have root, open the dialer > *#0011# (capture screenshot #1) > Menu - Back > Menu - Key Input > Q0 > wait... > DEBUG SCREEN > NAS INFORMATION > MM INFORMATION (capture screenshot #2) > Menu - Back > MM REJECT CAUSE (capture screenshot #3).
And post these 3 screenshots for more investigation.

If Radio is turned on, I get no options to select.
If Radio is turned off, I get those options, none which work.
Screenshot 1 - http://i.imgur.com/OBQc4IQ.png
Screenshot 2 - http://i.imgur.com/G5K7VZk.png
My screen didn't have a MM REJECT CAUSE menu and my phone doesn't let me press back to get to previous menus, so I took a pic of SIM INFORMATION to see if that helps. http://i.imgur.com/zvpKfyh.png

The network has considered your phone as a illegal device and refused service either because an identity of the phone is not acceptable, or because the phone does not pass the authentication check. I dont know why. It should be a false positive report.

I Fixed it!
I kept messing around in ServiceMode and finally found the setting to get my network back. It was NV settings that I reset under PROTOCOL. Told me to reboot and voila my LTE was back. SMS and calling didn't work so I factory reset and now everything is working fine. I knew my SIM was fine and my EMEI was fine. I knew it was something I could change myself.
Thank you for the help man. I am now going to never install that Phone info app again unless I have other problems lol.
I need to test a way to get rid of a huge battery drain that happens when using a data only sim card..
Both *#0011# and * # * # 197328640 # * # * are not working.
*#0011# is only giving me basic information no network menu.
* # * # 197328640 # * # * is not working at all
There is a blog post in japanese, that using Google translate I was able to read that changing a setting in
MAIN MENU [1] DEBUG SCREEN → [8] PHONE CONTROL → [7] NETWORK CONTROL → [3] SERVICE DOMAIN → [3] PS ONLY fixes my problem.
This problem is present on all android devices, all of them are showing as 100% no signal when in fact they work but only in data mode (no voice).
There is absolutely no way to get a voice sim card in japan if you are not japanese.... (law, yes really).
The phone is not rooted because I want Samsung pay if it ever works in this device.
I reported this bu both to Google and Samsung
