I just bought an ATT SGH-i337 ( craigslist) and none of the codes ( ##RTN# etc ) work on it !
I'd like to know if it's new or refurbished, and how used it is....
I also tried using the Launcher Pro method, but I cannot see any com.android.hiddenmenu files !!
Is there ANY way to check this info on stock ATT S4 ?
I have been able to unlock ( fastgsm cable method $14.99 ) and verified with a TMO sim.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!
Thanks :good:

Sorry about that!
So, any insights .... Anybody??
I'm pretty sure the specific ##RTN# dialer code is CDMA specific. What hidden menus are you trying to access?

Ah now I see you flashed your phone to "death". It seems your nv_data.bin is corrupt. If you have no backup you are out of luck. (nv_data.bak or .nv_data.bak)
Here are the instruction how to rebuild your file if you have a bak file.

thx for the link, but no success
i order two unlockcodes on trusted websites because i still waiting for a code...
out of luck for real??? because i have my imei number, not the wellknown corrupt one!

Please search the forum. There is someone there that can rebuild it for you. I suppose he cannot disclose the method due to the forum policy (something regarding changing/setting IMEI).
There is always a way
If that is not possible, then, there are sites that you can BUY the unlock code for your phone given the IMEI.

Thanks a lot XDA for this thread! I'm in the same hole as H03! Currently attempting to rebuild the nv-bak.bak file now... Wish me luck!

why do you want to change it
there are ways of doing it,example if you have updated your phone,like i did on my note1,battery died and then the imei changed to devolper mode 0049xxxxxxxxx
then legaly there are ways of getting(recovering) your original imei
if you have a normal imei and want to change it to another imei then this is illegal
why do you want to do it
Mod Edit
I think this thread has run its' course

Hello all.
Why not make a new section for the S4 - I9515 ?
This is visibly a new model, and there is some differences about drivers for exemple that make we can't install custom Recovery or ROM makes we have no touch screen if we do it.
I think that I really definitivelly not the only one who have this phone and need help with it, or a new Custom ROM, Recovery or other ?
Thank you by advance and see you soon.
're right, create a selection for the 9515 S4, not find a rom for my model

Why no moderators answers to that please ?
MODERATORS, would like me to implore you ? ? ? ? ? Or you will finally answer to my question ? ? ? ? ?
I think the reason is because there are no custom roms for it (yet). So there would be no point in opening a new section.

Precisely, if the developers want to work with this type of phone, how will they do ? They will post it in the I9505 section? ? ? ? ? Not very logical.
And for us who have this phone, where do we must to post ? In the I9505 section ? Not logical too, definitely ! ! ! !
instead of ranting in a q&a section thats for a different phone, how about asking in the correct place?

So, if I listening you, there will be all models of S4 in XDA EXCEPT (for obscure reasons) the I9515 ? We have definitely done well to buy this phone, for SUR.
Especially that in my area, we have no choice, it is the only model of S4 we can be found, and I took him, to the base, to be secure and to choose ROM that I would put on it. Obviously, I did well to take it to what I see.

Yes, i put my phone in it, but, like it said in the head of the message, the phone isn't sur to be accepted.
I only want to have a section for not make off topic posts. If you don't understant that, sorry, I wouldn't like to rant.
hi guys,
just got today an S5 and quite happy with it so far.
I would like to do few things on it, hope you can suggest me the best way:
- get root (Lollipop 5.0, possibly keeping Knox unaltered)
- remove bloatware (especially my magazine)
- make it sim free, I belive is locked to the operator, got it on contract
can you please recommend what's best for doing those 3 things?
thanks a lot,
Gabrio
how about you read the forum, jesus christ it's right there in front of you.
hello Lingo, thanks for your reply
that is what i have been doing for the past 2-3 hours and because i know it's sometimes confusing, i was asking in advance. May i ask you to not swear with the name of our Lord? it's not pleasing to him and there's no need doing it. thank you

If you really had been looking for the last 2 hours, my dear sir, surely you would have noticed the stickied threads which answer all of your questions. One particular thread will even tell you that these kind of posts don't belong here in "General". Good day to you.
here's a few useful threads to get you started:
General advice: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2700073
How to root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2696537
If you just want to remove bloat from your current rom, I'd recommend smart debloater: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/mod-smart-debloater-t2802034
But if you want a new/customisable rom check out Phoenix rom where you can pick and choose what you flash: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2741302
To make it sim-free, you'll need to get an unlock code either from your network or maybe off somewhere like ebay.
Hope that helps

thanks so much those are really helpful... if you could help me with one more thing which I found and is really off (again on this model)....I would love to edit the SMS_Candy.apk and disable SMS to MMS conversion after 480 chars or tricky it, I remember on my sgs2 I did a mod and basically increased that to "after 99 SMS convert to MMS" which did the trick nicely. I had a look at the files and it seems more complicated on Lollipop 5.0? do you know by chance? thanks a lot!
TBH, most custom roms will have that mod already included, I think phoenix rom has it
