Need Help To Unlock SGH-i337M - Networking

Hi,
I've just purchased a samsung galaxy S4 Canadian model (sgh-i337m) with 4.4.2 Official on it.
the phone seems clean the flash counters were 0 (unless I've rooted it and it became "1" I Think) the phone had also KNOX on it but I did manage to get root permissions by disabling Knox and Removing it..
Now I want to Sim unlock it but it won't seem to work, I've tried the *#0011# however it won't take me to the debug screen, I've also tried the *#27663368378# wich not take me at the service mode at all, and finally typed the *#197328640# code and managed to go to service mode but i can find the UMTS field or phone control or even perso SHA256!
My Menu is :
DEBUG SCREEN
[1] BASIC INFORMATION
[2] NAS INFORMATION
[3] AS NFORMATION
[4] GPRS INFORMATION
[5] SIM INFORMATION
[6] WB-AMR Status
[7] WB-AMR SETTINGS
Can you help me guys Sim unlock it maybe flash another rom? or Try other Code? or maybe An Apk will help me do it?
Any Leads?
Edit : I've Downgraded to 4.2.2 I337MVLUAMDJ_I337MOYAAMDJ_I337MVLUAMDJ_HOME.tar Official Rom.
Now I Can have acces to UMTS and go until perso PERSO SHA256 OFF the go back to NV REBUILD, but when the phone restart nothings happen, it's still locked!
How can that be possible?
NB: The Wifi Won't Turn in Neither!

not registered on the network Device Galaxy Note 3

not registered on the network
Device Galaxy Note 3 9005
After downloading the new BTU-N9005XXUBMJ3
I experienced the same error when I sold my Note 2, the buyer got the same error. I had been customizing the Note 2, rooting, flashing custom kernels and so. The root cause was that somehow the efs partition became corrupt and the phone had an invalid IMEI. I was lucky that I made and efs backup after rooting, so I could restore my efs backup and the phone could connect to the network again. I was very happy I made that backup, else the buyer wanted his money back of course! Maybe you can do a search in the Note 3 forum of XDA (Original Android Development), it has an efs backup/restore tool. Hope this solves your problem, good luck!
Hi, before I got my Note 3 I had the Galaxy S4 for 1 week. I got the error everytime I restarted the phone. What I had to do was go into the settings and search for networks and then hit automatic and that made it register again.
Haven't seen it on my Note 3 so far though.

[Q] help Samsung S4S975L - SERVICE MODE - Unlock menu not complete

Please I need help with my S975L Samsung Galaxy S4. I tried everything to sim unlock it but nothing worked.
I read that one method was entering to the serviceMode Menu (*#0011#) and change the PersoSHA256 flag, but the NETWORK LOCK menu only has 2 options:
{1} PersoSHA256 Info and
{2} RAT_FREE_SUPPORITNG ON
I don't have the 3rd point where I can enable or disable the flag.
Is there any way to unhide that option??
Thanks in advance !
I don't think this is possible. Apparently the Straight Talk S4 is well locked. Attempting to change the modem to an older version bricks the unit.
Your only real option is to use Straight Talk for a year then request an unlock from them.

Add / Unlock LTE Bands to Moto E 2015 (XT1528)

Hi.
I bought the Verizon Moto E (2015) XT1528.
I am trying to get LTE work in the Philippines and LTE bands here are different from what Verizon has enabled.
I'd like to ask if anyone has been able to add/unlock other LTE bands like the guide in the link below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/how-to-add-rf-lte-frequency-bands-to-t2886059
I am having problems searching for the code the access the USB Settings menu (step 6 of the guide above):
"Open the USB settings screen on your phone. Change USB from AP to CP. And USB settings from MTP + ADB to RNDIS + DM + Modem mode (after you have finished making edits in your phone's memory, remember to revert the original settings in this screen).
This is the hardest part of this mod as the USB setting menu is usually hidden and the method to access it is slightly different on some brands. For the S5, you can open it by dialing *#0808# . Other phones may use *#7284# , *#8778# , *#*#8778#*#* , ##3424# or something else entirely. "
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

[Q] Damaged EFS, no backup - how to repair S5 with NULL IMEI?

Hi,
I have a problem with my S5. After flashing a custom ROM I found out that my IMEI is null, and so the EFS is corrupted. I tried to restore it from backup only to find out that I have deleted the backup
What can I do now? I anything? Would restoring EFS from another S5 (with damaged mainboard) could be a solution?
Generally everything works except of phone modem, I have got IMEI written - is there maybe a method to set the IMEI without EFS or a method to create EFS? I already tried sam IMEI changers, but I found out that they only do this on the application level - apps will be able to read different IMEI for licensing, but phone still sees NULL IMEI.
You can't restore EFS from another S5 coz it'll brick your device.

Thanks for answer
So what can I do?
Found sth like this:
Never tried coz never lost IMEI
In the dialer, type- *#197328640# or *#*#197328640#*#*
>You will be prompted into the Command mode, provided On the screen, Select on Common, normally option 6
> Now Select (FTM) Option 1
>FTM is for debugging and testing., (Field Test Mode)
>If (FTM) is on, you will have to turn this OFF
>As soon as you turned this off your NULL or altered IMEI number will be restored
>(Important) Without leaving the Command screen, press the Menu key, the button that’s found left of the Home button.
> Select Key input and enter option 2. In this case, you want to turn it off
>Wait for a minute. This will turn your FTM OFF
> Remove your battery and SIM card for two minutes
>Place your battery in your phone, (important) do not place your SIM card in.
> When the phone is booted, enter the command mode again dial – *#197328640#
>Select the Debug Screen, normally option 1
>After that, choice phone control, option eight
>Click on nas control, option 3
>Afterwards, click “RRC (HSDPA), option 5
>To Fix not registered on network or Null IMEI #, click RRC revision, option 2.
>Choose the released of your phone, here we will choose option 5 (HSDPA only)
>Final step to fix Null IMEI not registered on a network for Samsung Galaxy is to turn off your phone and insert your Sim card
or
>Insert your Sim card, afterwards reboot your phone
Thanks - are you sure about this bricking device?
I already tried this numbers but it always says "No Network", The only instruction that I found was to use *#0011# and it goes into the Service Menu, but it doesn't look like that described. There is something called NVM restore, but it doesn't do anything with IMEI
I am gonnna post screenshots at evening.

Yes I'm sure about bricking. EFS partition on your phone is made for ONLY YOUR PHONE. This is sth like restoring TA Partition on xperia devices. When you flash ta from another xperia, you brick device
Tapatalked from SM-G900F
I read someone saying they had successfully restored a backed up EFS partition from an identical model S5 to another, and it worked
The problem I can see, is if the original gets blocked by the carrier, chances are so will the clone
Not sure about network issues having two identical devices on the same network at the same time, both making calls, might end up like an IP conflict
Pretty sure that transferring IMEI from one device to another is against the law too......
Sent from my rooted, debloated stocKK kn0x0 SM-G900F
Yes, I also know that is it against the law, but I have a complete phone with broker mainboard (so even the IMEI is written on the back), and I would like to use this opportunity to copy the IMEI from old (broken) mainboard to the new one. It even looks better than the situation when I have got and old case with written IMEI that doesn't correspond to the IMEI on the new mainboard.
The mainboard is broken that way, that there is short-circuit somewhere and the CPU is constantly using power and it get's really hot, so it use useless.
I am trying to flash EFS, let's see what is gonna to happen

1. Tried flashing EFS = nothing happened
2. Tried flashing EFS + Modem + ModemST1 + ModemST2 = nothing happened
3. Restored android to STOCK
I can't get into the service menu.
The only Service menu that I can get into is this one, but there isn't any fixing IMEI/NVRAM option
Code:
*#0011#
Menu > Back
Menu > keyInput "Q"
Menu > keyInput "0000"
Wait for few seconds

Hi,
you have 2 options
1. Use Samsung Kies which will repair you efs
2. Flash with Odin the official rom 5.0
If you install another efs, the data installed may be not work, even if it is same model. In S5, nothing to do with the IMEI
You can also root the phone and with adb commands, erase all the efs
you can also use Z3X tools
Hi,
Thanks - some new ideas
So if I understand you correctly, I have 3 options:
1. Use Samsung Kies which will repair you efs - how to repair EFS with Samsung Kies?
2. Flash with Odin the official rom 5.0 -> I tried flashing oryginal 4.4 and it didn't helped. Should flashing 5.0 help?
3. You can also root the phone and with adb commands, erase all the efs - What will erasing EFS will give me? Shouldn't I have EFS partition with some data?
you can also use Z3X tools -> ok... I am gonna figure this out, 'cause I don't know it yet

Suitable downgrade firmware with "Hidden meny" options available?

Hello
Wondering if anyone could give me a hint of which stock firmware I would need in order to get options in the hidden menu available and thats compatible with Samsung GT-I8730.
Currently running Android-version 4.1.2 original stock firmware.
Trying to unlock SIM, using Chimera but gets stuck at 19%, when a popup-window tells me to enable Diagnostic Mode (DM) by using *#0808# or *#9090# or *#7284# in dial window
The two first options nothing happens at all and dialing *#7284# brings me to PhoneUtil with options UART, Modem or PDA, where PDA was default but there is no USB section available.
Also I would need the *#9090# to set Diag config to USB-value.
Am new at this and would be grateful for any help I can get
Riondorx
