Hi,
Got this spaking i9505 s4, but it seems the *#197328640# service mode is missing, im using this mode to select wcdma band, In my S2 it is there.
Did samsung removed : *#197328640#, if yes how do we access wcdma select band?
Also *#2263# is not working
Thanks,
Roy

No I did not I ended up selling the phone as I wanted to change networks but I could not unlock the pjone.

Ei.. any fix for this?
i BELIEVE this is part of Samsung's "business strategy".. i was resolve this using the Samsung Service Mode apk (which I cracked and patched :highfive, however i have another issue related to this (see attached pic)!
In this case...may i ask if anyone from XDA knows the secret code for the UMTS Menu for me to access the Network Unlock menu???

RESOLVED thru SERENDIPITY!

Hi XDA Peeps!
I was able to unlock my i9505!
I just did the following steps:
1. Dial *#0011# via Phone Utility apk [Phone Connectivity Status will appear (via Service Mode)];
2. Tap on the left soft key (LSK) and select Key Input > Enter 1 > Hit OK;
3. Tap on the LSK and select BACK [You're now just a few steps away!];
4. Tap on the LSK and select Key Input > Enter 1 > Hit OK [Your screen shall have a different output now (i.e., a single digit "1" on line 1)];
5. WAIT for 5 seconds until the UMTS MAIN MENU appears > Select Debug Screen > Select Phone Control > Select Network Lock;
6. Next, tap on: [3] PERSO SHA256 OFF;
7. From here, go back to the UMTS MAIN MENU by tapping on Menu (left soft key on SGS4) and selecting Back from the options;
8. Once you are in the UMTS menu, tap on: [6]COMMON;
9. There, select: [6]NV REBUILD;
10. Now in the NV Rebuild menu, tap on: [4] Restore Back-up;
11. Samsung Galaxy S4 will now go into a temporary freezing state. After a while you’ll see some activities. The screen will be black and the LED will turn Blue. The Menu and Back key button on phone will also light;
12. Lastly, your Samsung Galaxy S4 will reboot automatically and will take a minute or two in booting up (depending on your ROM's Boot Animation);
BOOM! Your Galaxy S4 GT i9505 is now SIM-unlocked! Try a SIM card from another carrier to confirm the process and do not forget to share this to your friends too!

Yes, you are right.
If you have root, download Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app > Menu > Secret Codes > 197328640 > Launch 0 > NAS INFO > MM REJECT CAUSE and show the screenshot.
If you don't have root, in the *#0011# screen > Menu > back > Menu > Keyinput > Q0 > DEBUGSCREEN > NAS INFO > MM REJECT CAUSE and also show the screenshot.

Limited Service

No I don't tab the reset,
1.) I just try to search for network,
2.) it shows all here in Austria available networks,
3.) I try auto connect to network, -> Fail,
4.) then I run the service mode again, it shows same result.
I run Csc VerifierLog. this shows many fail.

Did you see the substate is NoIMSI? Maybe something wrong with your SIM card? Did you try putting that SIM card into another phone to see if it works?

And also try to re-flash the stock firmware for your device. That may help to fix the problem with CSC Verify.
In the Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app, open the Menu > 'Firmware Browser' to get a link of the stock firmware for your device.

Ok, the story is like that.
My son in law visit me here in Austria, and just befor he fly home again to the philippines, he buy him a Note 3 (SM-N9005) from here in Austria.
But he don't read the sticker on the box, " Europe Model" it has to be used with a europian SIM CARD before it can be used with a asian SIM.
So he just went to a mobile store in the Philippines and tell them to open the SIM lock.
After this the phone not work anymore right, it operate very slow. So finaly he send it back to me, by Fedex.
I take it to the "Mobile Store" here in Austria, but the told me the can't fix it becouse the " IMEI is lost 00/00" and in the Service menu ( *#0011#) it shows IMEI CERTI: FAIL.
So I bring it back home and try to fix it.
The Status now is:
1.) I write the IMEI back with this tool: EFS_Professional_2.1.73 ---> it works great my Imei is back
2.) I flash many moden.bin's until I'm sucsessful, and now my " IMEI Certi is : PASS
3.) If I try to use the phone, everything looks fine baseband is there the phone is fast, the only thing, if I try to use it as a phone, it say's " Not registerd to a Network" Emergency call only"
So I don't know waht the to in the Philippines, when the try to unlook it.
If I look in the Service Mode, it shows Service Limited.
Any Idea ?
Maybe the way EFS_Professional_2.1.73 generate the IMEI, is not the right way. If I put (*#06#)
it shows the right IMEI, but maybe the phone SW look in a other part of the memory for the IMEI?
do you have any idea?

For now I can only suggest 2 things:
1- Put your sim card into another phone to make sure it works fine?
2- Perform factory reset your phone and try again.

Hi,
I also have the same problem Samsung Note-3 showing Limited Service.
I have followed the stage showed above.I used the app Phone Info (that u shown).
IMEI is still there.
Root Existence says yes.
Android version is 5.0.Build.
Build Number is LRX21V.N900KKKU0G0J2.
MM reject cause is the same as vndnguyen (but my substate is normal)
The man from the service shop just keeping saying to change ICU.
But I don't want to change ICU. I want to try to fix it by myself.
I am just a phone seller so I don't know deep down the code.
I can just follow the step.
By the way I don't know how to attach image(it is not like using gmail instead it reques link)

Lag gps galaxy note 4

Hi all,
In first, sorry for bad english, i m French lol.
I have a lag with my gps, i install ROM Dr Ketan for n910f. I want post on thread but I'm new user.
I want use this topic :
1) Open Phone, go to the dialer.
2) Enter *#0011# to enter the service mode. You will land at "DEBUG SCREEN"
I hit menu key and select "back"
3) Hit the menu key, select "Key Input" and in the Input Value box, enter Q (capital letter) and hit OK
4) Hit the menu key again, select "Key Input", and in the Input value box, enter 0000 (four zeros) and hit OK
5) Wait about 5-10 seconds, your service menu should change to "MAIN MENU":
Code:
MAIN MENU
[1] PROTOCOL STATE
[2] UE SETTINGS & INFO
[3] ETC
[4] DEBUG SCREEN(OPEN)
[5] OPERATOR(OPEN)
Now I haven't messed around in here too much, but if you want to reset your modem and GPS (restore the factory NV values for the modem, which COULD help data dropouts, bad GPS fix, etc.), do the following:
1) Enter the MAIN MENU as described above
2) Select option 2 "UE SETTINGS & INFO"
3) Select option 1 "SETTING"
4) Select option 2 "SYSTEM"
5) Select option 3 "NV REBUILD"
6) Select option 3 "ALL"
7) It will tell you to reboot. Do it. Reboot will take slightly longer, but it will completely reset the modem, GPS, and IMS settings
But a step 5, I wait , but any screen for select.
You have a solution ?? Plz
Thx

Anybody have solution ??
