I did some searching and have not found anything recent about the topic... Was this ever figured out? are we just going to be in the dark with a locked down loader forever?
Maybe i missed the tread where this is currently still being discussed please direct me!
I haven't been able to find any information either. I have been monitoring XDA, Rootz and Droidforums and development seems to be fairly dead.
bootloader can not be unlocked, without codes from moto
and they just want these phones to go away

I am really lost here. Awaiting your reply at the earliest.
Hi there!
Sorry for responding to this late, hope ur still reading this.
I don't think your phone is unlocked judging from your problem. However, you can try unlocking your phone again. There are many sites that unlock your phone for you for $10-$15.
Below is a video that shows you how to unlock a LG G3. The same method is for the Samsung Galaxy A5.

Hi all, I am currently looking for the stock firmware for the Cricket Wireless variant of the Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime. Any help would be appreciated. I'm currently trying to flash my phone back to KitKat to expose a flaw in the system that would allow me to bypass the reactivation lock. My friend seems to have lost his account and can't recover it so I am doing him a favour and trying to help him out. I know development on this transition device is difficult but I am willing to be patient. Thanks again
I am also looking for this as well as it is my understanding that I need this to get back to KitKat after my phone upgraded to Lollipop which I do not want for certain reasons

I just found a G530AZ for sale on Ebay "as is" seeing it has physical damage. The seller reports it still has 4.4 so I wonder if buying it and backing up the rom on it and posting that here for everyone will work? I just worry about it being automatically upgraded before that can happen.
Also I read on another site that it might be possible that it CANT be rolled back to Kit Kat because the bootloader is being overwritten. Not too sure what that means.
Hoping someone can clarify if going back to stock Kit Kat is even possible and if so should I buy this phone from Ebay? (Or maybe someone more experienced could get it and help us all out and also get more use from it?)

I think maybe if i flash the csc from a different variant we might be able to get the option to unlock oem in our developer settings menu as well, I will see if i can get the csc from one of these other variants and maybe give it a shot tomorrow, unless someone that knows more about such things advises against it or if you already know its pointless. Thanks for input but we gotta get this puppy full unlocked as we are missing out on custom roms and recovery on our cricket version.
Well csc flash results in failed out checks need tonedit the aboot to unlock unfortunately

Hi all, I have accidentally messed up with the Test mode and selected USA band which caused the phone with no signal on 2G network. I have found a similar post that custom room with baseband query for Nexus 5X has fixed the issue
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/help/baseband-error-china-t3238867
Hopefully there is any expert able to develop a custom rom for Nexus 6P and I believe it will help a lot of people who is experiencing the same problem.
Thank you
There are many similar posts. I have subscribed to all of them.

Thanks for the reply, I have read a lot of them and yet to have anything for Nexus 6P (eg QCN file), hope there is an easy way for non-developer type of person like myself to get through this problem.
I am here for the same problem and i have read that thread too.Also i have send an email to this developer to ask for help
Good morning.
Note 3 N900 I have a few months ago I made a mistake with my terminal and clear my EFS folder and I do not support it. Now, even after installing various rom I can not operate the mobile network does not make calls or receive them.
Sure I'm not only idiot who has done this without support before their EFS folder, and would like to learn from the experience of another person, and know how to fix ESGE problem, if it is beyond repair.
Thank you and I hope someone can help me.
You didn't made a backup of your EFS??
No, made the mistake of not doing it.
Let me search on google if i find any fix i will share

Hello guys,
I think the question is very clear but I'll elaborate anyways.
I bought the Moto E4 for my wife this week because I read that this phone features the LTE band number 3 (1800) and that's the LTE band that her company uses to provide LTE services, however we just updated the phone OTA just the day we bought it and after updating it we noticed that the phone didn't get LTE, after some research I learned that allegedly, those 2 updates we did just after booting the device may have been designed specifically to stop us from editing the APN's witch I now need to edit in order to properly configure the phone to work with her current company...
So I need your help, any ideas how can I fix this? (I'm not noob, I just can't find not a single thread here talking about a phone with this specific firmware NCQS26.69-64-2 the phone has installed and I'm worried that If I flash to the phone this software SPERRY_SPRINT_NCQ26.69-48_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip I may soft-hard-brick it because I'm uncertain that that software is meant to work in this phone and also worried that that software won't allow me to edit the APN's how I need to get LTE working)
So I live in a 3rd world country where the internet sucks and I have to let the 1.6 file downloading all night long to flash it tomorrow, I intend to flash the firmware but I'll be happy to see any response on you guys before that time comes.
Thanks in advance for any help on this subject, I have been away from this community for a long time but I'm a fan of your work here fellas.
I have seen some say that downgrading will hard brick after the most recent update. So I wouldn't do it. There is a thread here about creating a custom stock update package by replacing some of the .img files in the new update with ones from the older one that may help. I'll try to find the link. You may have to use different files as the post came here before the latest update.
