Anyone able to modify Qualcomm settings using QXDM? - Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 Questions & Answers

I have a ZB602KL and really need to try and add LTE band 4. I have the phone rooted and have diagnostic drivers installed on my Windows 10 PC (however requires I boot in test mode to be recognized as the drivers are not signed). I can run QPST 2.7.474 and it sees the phone and seems to be able to back up to a file - at least there are no errors/complaints. I can enable service programming mode in QPST and I can connect QXDM 3.14.594 to QPST without complaints. But trying to read most items gives errors. Has anyone managed to get this sort of thing to succeed? If so, please offer suggestions. Thanks!

You cant "use" an lte band if it isn't on the phone. He's asking if anyone is able to use qpst to add band 4.

my dfs progress

Received my boost aquos crystal today. Was hoping to dfs it to page plus as easy as the moto g, but was unsuccessful. I was able to read all normal values using dfs, just not write.
Process:
Entered diag mode using ##diag#.
Installed sharp drivers. (I will attach).
Updated 306sh drivers using Device Manager in windows. Select driver "I know location" or whatever. Chose "show all drivers". Scroll to Sharp Corporation. Select USB diag driver.
Open in dfs. ( I got my Spc code from boost by registering my device on their website to my account. Don't worry, they dount make you pay. Choose your plan, create a new phone number or whatever needed. Doesn't matter... They call it MSL code.)
Entered Spc in dfs and was able to read all info.... But nothing I wrote saved.
In the phone's ##diag# screen, I'd I selected the serial option, I installed the drivers... Same results.
I also force installed my moto RAZR m xt907 drivers (also msm Qualcomm) but same results.
Hope this helps someone with something.

oh, you need drive DIAG, but what do you want with this port?
Hey guys I just found this thread. I am a CDMA Programmer and I wouldn't mind tinkering with this phone. Did it come with stock drivers embedded in the phone? Most do or sometimes you need to get adb driver packs for it. I am willing to help as I have DFS, CDMA Workshop, QPST and more. Please lmk what the current progress is on your end and I'll go ahead and share what I find when the phone arrives at my house. Let's get this rollin again!

Ok I just ordered a bad esn one from eBay. Is it easy to get the msl code for it aside from activation? That's gonna be a big pain the @$$ if it's not like the Samsung or HTC.
OK guys so I just got my Sharp Aquos today and I have to say, WHAT A PIECE OF ART!!!! But I have started to work on it now. Did have some issues with it but I got it working. Managed to get into a hidden menu to do a RTN reset of it and now trying to get Diag Drivers. I got my MSL courtesy of an hour of research that surly paid off. So next step: connection to CDMA Workshop! Let me know what drivers you have found that work for this for the coms.

[How To] Edit ALL Network Bands on ALL M9's

EDIT: 21/06/2017 THIS MAY NO LONGER WORK DUE TO NEW SECURITY. LEFT HERE FOR REFERENCE ONLY
WARNING: THIS PROCEDURE MAKES DANGEROUS CHANGES TO YOU DEVICE, I DO NOT ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR DAMAGES
EDIT: FINDINGS SHOW THAT GSM MODELS DO NOT SAVE THE BANDS AFTER REBOOT. QPST/QXDM MAY SUIT BETTER FOR THIS. CDMA MODELS SEEM TO BE FINE AT THIS STAGE.
For GSM MODELS (please click unhide content below) thanks to @guidojusto, be sure to thank his post
QXDM / QPST software for below can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/how-to-add-rf-lte-frequency-bands-to-t2886059
guidojusto said:
Well I did find some little time to do a guide trough the process to change LTE bands, take in consideration that I did this process on my HTC One M9 Developer-Unlocked version (Should be the same as the AT&T one).
I DO NOT ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR DAMAGES
You will need:
QXDM Pro 3.12.714 (I do not have any links, and deleted my installer, I’m sorry) .
HTC Diag drivers (Find these drivers on first post).
DFS CDMA software (Also find the link to this program on first post).
NV LTE Calculator (I found a couple of apps on the Play Store, I used both of them in order to check if the values matched).
Phone should be:
Rooted
Developer Mode Enabled with USB Debugging activated
S-Offed (Not completely sure about this one, I'm while doing this process though)
In order to install the drivers on Windows 8 and upcoming OS’s you will have to turn off signature driver verification.
Also, please, use the two screenshots provided in order to make things easier for you.
1.
Open a terminal where your adb folder is and run
Code:
adb shell
su
echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/f_diag/func_en
Note: After this, you need to install the diag drivers you download before, when you are ready, continue.
2.
Open DFS CDMA software and look for the COM HTC Diagnostic Interface, take note of the COM port the phone is using. On the screenshot provided is COM 3, yours may differ. Close the program now.
3.
Open QXDM Pro and go to Options --> Communications… Check for the COM with diagnostics (In this case COM 3) (Step 2 on the screenshot). Then look for Target Port and select the COM your HTC Device is using from what you saw while using DFS CDMA software on the beginning (Step 4 on the screenshot). Click OK (Step 5 on the screenshot).
4.
Go to Category Filter and select LTE there.
5.
Look for the first value 06828.
6.
In Fields press Read (Step 8 on the screenshots)
7.
Save the value to somewhere safe, as a backup of what the phone is currently using for connecting to LTE antennas.
8.
Input the number you want to use (Use NV LTE Calculator or other program to get the right number for the LTE bands you want to use) (Step 9 on the screenshots).
9.
Press Write. Close QXDM Pro now.
10.
Go again to your adb terminal and type
Code:
adb shell
su
echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/f_diag/func_en
11.
Profit!
If you want to check if these settings stick after reboot, then you reboot the phone, and do the same steps up to the step 8 where you need to read the values the phone has, if it has the same values you have manually changed it means the process worked perfectly.
Hope this helps @stifilz you should thank him!

Hi all,
I have been playing with this for the last couple of days.
Hopefully this will help you to change the network bands available to your HTC One M9 - All variants should work - Tested on Sprint M9 and GSM M8.
Prep:
You will need DFS CDMA tool from http://cdmatool.com/ demo version will work (create an account too, it is free and you do not need to add credit)
You will need HTC Diag drivers (attached)
Preparing your device:
Device Should be S-OFF (S-ON may work)
You must have ROOT
ADB must be enabled
Firstly USB diag mode must be enabled, on CDMA devices you can use ##3424#.
This option is not available for GSM devices. So we have to echo '1' (which means turn on) to the f_diag USB mode, this is set to '0' (which means turn off) by default.
So you have to use the following code:
Code:
adb shell
su
echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/f_diag/func_en
This is the code available on my Sprint M9 but should be the same on other variants.
I have tested this method on my HTC M8 GSM and it does connect to the PC
M8's code is slightly different.
This should have enabled DIAG mode and you should have a new device on the PC.
Please install driver by manually updating the unknown driver.
Install DFS CDMA Tool if you haven't already and open DFS.
I should show a login screen, you may need to create an account (I can't remember). Log in and close that window and the main window should ope wait 50 seconds (demo limitations).
You should be presented with your device on the 'Equipment' tab. Mine is COM3 HTC Diagnostic Interface (COM3).
If it is not showing please check you drivers and close the program and then open it again.
If you are still having trouble try to use QPST to check that the device is recognised.
From there double click your device name and it should put a 'tick' next to it.
It should show your device details and the bottom under 'Devices Online:'
From the click on the 'Band' tab.
This will change screens to the band menu.
CMDA/GSM/HSDPA
ALL THE BANDS will show for CDMA/GSM/HSDPA (NOT YOURS)
Down the bottom right change the radio (black circle) to 'RF BC Config' form 'Band Preferred'
Click the Read button and wait 300seconds (demo limitations)
This will show the bands that YOUR DEVICE HAS.
DO NOT ADD MORE BANDS THAN YOU REQUIRE THIS IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS
To enable more bands, simply click the ones you need and then press Write when you are ready.
LTE
Click the 'LTE' tab
ALL THE BANDS will show for LTE (NOT YOURS)
Down the bottom right change the radio (black circle) to 'LTE BC Config LTE #6828'
Click the Read button and wait 300 seconds (demo limitations)
This will show the LTE bands that YOUR DEVICE HAS.
DO NOT ADD MORE BANDS THAN YOU REQUIRE THIS IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS
To enable more bands, simply click the ones you need and then press Write when ready.
For good measure also change the vaules in 'LTE BC Config DIV LTE #6829'
You can now close DFS.
Disable diag mode using the following code
Code:
adb shell
su
echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/f_diag/func_en
Don't freak out if you loose signal, this is normal. Simply reboot the phone and signal should come back.
Please read bands from the phone again and let me know if they stayed
I tested it using my Sprint M9.
For me I in New Zealand I enabled LTE Bands 3 (1800+) and 28 (700 APT) and WCDMA VIII (800 MHz).
It seems the change was permanent as I rebooted and read it from the phone and it was still there.
I am unable to test as it is still Sim Locked . If someone could help with that, that would be greatly appreciated
I also tested on my GSM M8, but I did not write to it as I have all the bands I need.
Any questions, feel free to ask.
Hopefully this opens up some doors for this device.
Band LTE reference:
Sprint: 2, 4, 12, 25, 41
T-Mobile: 2, 3, 4, 7, 12, and 17
AT&T: 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 12, 17, and 29
HTC Dev & Unlocked Versions: 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 12, 13, 17, 29, 30
Cheers
Stifilz
Thanks to all those involved in testing:
@v1rk - confirmed working on Sprint M8
@guidojusto - confirmed working on M9 Dev Edition S-Off - Maximus HD Rom His method here

For diag off
Code:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/f_diag/on
Please let me know the results

@v1rk I noticed you answered 'Yes' in the poll. Would you mind sharing your experience with this?
Such as phone model, brand, s-on/s-off etc
You may well be the very first tester (other than myself) and I would be happy to add you to the credits.

Tested on a spare sprint m8 with the sim unlocked. It was fairly simple process but you have to be patient and make sure its copied correctly. I used windows 7 since windows 8.1 & 10 was annoying me a times with driver issues. My m9 is already gsm unlocked so cant really test on that nor can i try on a dev m8 which i got already.

Thanks for the feedback. The idea is that it will WORK on GSM
The f_diag code can enable the diag mode on GSM phones. On CDMA you can use the ##3424# code from phone dialer.
I could read the bands of my GSM M8 but had no need to write to it.
Also tried on a spare GSM M7, but this did no keep the bands that I added / removed after a reboot. Whereas, the M9 kept them changed.
With windows 8 you'll have to disable driver checks etc also. It was such a pain
Thanks again for your input
Stifilz
Are the drivers same for m8?
Worked without any issues at all. Thanks a lot, I needed in order to unlock band 28 700 APT. I'm using an HTC One M9 Unlocked - Developer Edition.
Only thing, I had to reboot my device after doing echo 0 command in order to get signal again.
Thanks again!

Pretty sure they are the same. On my Windows 7 it found them automatically. On my Windows 8.1 I had to do it manually. Cheers

Glad to hear. Can you please confirm that the band is still available after the reboot by reading the bands from the phone again? I thought it had worked with my M7 but the bands had changed back after boot. I'm hoping it was an isolated incident

Just checked after a couple of reboots and I can confirm BC 28 is not sticking upon reboot. I tried deselecting another band (BC 29) and adding BC28 thinking maybe there was a maximum limitation of bands HTC One M9 can be capable of handling but it does not change the result. It sticks while it is on and when the phone reboot it resets to its original bands configuration. I can only edit 'LTE BC Config LTE #6828' on DFS and not DIV LTE. I'm running Maximus ROM, S-Off, latest firmware and modem radio.
Hope it helps!

XT1528 - Script to use Moto E with GSM carriers (automated)

Hi guys,
I created a batch file that should simplify the selection of LTE/GSM mode (which is hidden/not enabled on XT1528) for usage with GSM carriers. It includes ADB and the batch file itself.
Windows only guys, sorry to others platforms. Tested with 5.1, if doesn't work with other versions, just let me know to test.
THIS DOESNT REMOVE THE SIM LOCK, JUST ENABLES A HIDDEN OPTION FROM MOTO E 2ND 4G XT1528
I didnt found this, I just gathered the info and created the batch for easiest method. All credit to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e-2015/general/how-to-verizon-moto-e-2015-gsm-network-t3098953
Instrucctions:
0) Insert sim card on phone (if wasn't already there)
1) Download the attached file and unzip it somewhere on your hardrive (something like "c:\temp" for example)
2) Enable USB debugging on your cellphone.
3) Connect your cellphone to the computer that has the files.
4) Accept the RSA Key in your cellphone screen (it will pop when you connect the cellphone in USB Debugging mode)
5) Run the "gsmfix" file (either via command line or windows explorer)
6) Follow the instructions.
You should be able to use gsm signals after the reboot. Remember to add your APN or you wont have internet.
If something doesn't work, let me know and I'll to fix it fast.
Bye!
I can use on the xt1511 ? 3G ?

This script selects GSM instead of CDMA in the cellphone Moto E 2nd Gen Verizo). If your phone doesn't have the option to choose that on mobile networks, you can give it a try.
If you are looking for something that will unlock the carrier lock and allow you use your cellphone in other carriers besides the one intended, it wont do anything. For that, you'll have to buy a unlock code from one of many websites that sell that service on internet.
Bye!

So instead of doing this
5.1 Updated Instrcutions:
With the SIM you want to use the the phone :
Put the phone into Airplane mode (I'm not sure this is needed, but it doesn't hurt)
Go to Settings -> About Phone and tap on "Build Number" until it says you are in Developer Mode (~10 times)
Go back one menu, and right above About Phone there should now be an option for Developer Options, go into that.
Turn on USB Debugging
Connect the phone to your computer and type "adb shell" in your CMD window
Run the following commands in adb shell : settings put global preferred_network_mode 9 settings put global preferred_network_mode1 9 settings put global preferred_network_mode2 9
Turn off Airplane mode
Power off and Restart the phone
Open up the settings app, go to the mobile networks panel, select "Prefered Network Mode" and change it to "4G"
Input the appropriate APNs for your specific carrier
I can just run this script and I'll get the same outcome? Because I'm switching my sim card out and I heard that you have to repeat the process above when the sim card is taken out etc.
Y es, it does the same thing

I guess it's good to have one more option for GSM, even if it is the same as in the other thread.
is it possible to make app or script run from the phone it self and not from computer , like that we can enable 4g 3g without computer i already tested many app from google play but not possible to switch from cdma to gsm

How to Enable Diag Mode in CM13?

Okay so here is the issue I'm facing today. I bought a Sprint Galaxy S5, and I managed to unlock it for domestic use (AT&T). I cannot get an LTE connection because my Qualcomm processor does not have the appropriate bands to use ATT LTE's network.
I read on here that you can write your NV memory to write the firmware and enable these other bands using QPST and QXDM. The issue I'm having though is getting my computer to install the diagnostic driver for COM port. It reads the Modem under modem tab in device manager. Since the computer doesn't think there is a diagnostic port, QPST configuration cannot open a diag port which is what I need. I've been able to successfully put my phone in rndis + DM + modem by using this in emulator,
su
setprop sys.usb.confing_rndis,diag,diag_mdm
Do not type the first _ as it's meant as a space bar, but USE diag_mdm
But there is no indication that any driver has installed, and does not appear in device manager (even with hidden devices shown).
I'm running 6.0.1 CM13 w/twrp recovery with SELINUX set to permissive.
On windows 8
I also noticed that the guide to add frequency bands was written in 2014, I also know that in Lollipop, you needed to enable CP Logging to get it show up.
What I'm wondering is if there is a missing step to properly installing the diag driver, or if Qualcomm/Samsung found other means to activate it.
I noticed that when using EFSPro I can set it to Diagnostic + Modem + adb but I can only read not read/write NV memory
Also I observed when I send the SPC to read the phone with EFSPro, it says
"SPC was accepted by the phone!"
Then followed by.. "SPC was not found".
Then after I close that popup it reads my NV memory, but I can't write.
Is there a method to enable CP logging on CM13 MM and install the diag com port for QPST use? I don't have a stock recovery to enable CP logging through usual means in as I'm using TWRP.

Is there a method to enable CP logging on CM13 MM and install the diag com port for QPST use? I don't have a stock recovery to enable CP logging through usual means in as I'm using TWRP.

Did you ever solve this? I plan on following the same guide and I too am having this same problem.

G900P Diagnostic Mode & GSM Bands

Hi all,
I have been having some trouble following a guide on how to add GSM+LTE bands to this device. Specifically, I am struggling to connect to this device in Diagnostic Mode.
I am running Windows 7 x64. I have installed Samsung USB Driver v1.5.45.00. I have tried an updated driver but I seem to have had less issues with this version. I have also tried using Qualcomm USB Drivers For Windows (QD Loader) but when I select this folder to search for an alternative driver instead of the one Windows assignes I have to manually select an *.inf file and the options (HD-USB QDLoader 9XXX) does not make any sense to me which driver is required for my device.
I can run ##DIAG# in the Phone app and bring up PhoneUtil which brings up a menu to select CDMA MODEM / PDA and I have used both with no success. This menu allows me to access RNDIS+DM+MODEM. If I try to use other applications to switch to CP from AP in other USB settings or PDA to MODEM the phone disappears in device manager.
In QPST Configuration I have to untick "Show Serial and USB/QC Diagnostic ports only" to show the port and select the device. If I continue and use Software Download to back up the xQCN (NV memory) file it gets stuck at 12% and gives me an error "Could not Communicate in Diagnostic Mode"
If I use CDMA Workshop to do a backup the files hex just shows 00's and EFS Professionals backup is the same.
I have tried using stock Lollipop 5.0 firmware an enabling CP logging, rooted 5.0, a custom ROM including CM and I am currently running rooted 6.0.1 firmware.
I used Idoneapps paid service to find the SPC for my device but I don't believe there is any equivalent service to enable or disable the bands on my device.
All I can consider is wrong is the possibility of not having the right drivers but I have no idea where to find the right ones. I am at a bit of a dead end, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

man, if anyone can shed some light on this, itll breathe some new life into my phone. I looked for the very same thing a while back as i switched to H2O wireless using AT&T towers and its working, but just on HSPA+ and thats because all of the LTE bands arent unlocked on my phone. QXDM and QPST are the tools we need, but the driver issues are whats stopping me too. Anyone with insight would be greatly appreciated
