hi all ... am facing a BIG problem ... was using a tm G1 from Europe (RC7) version which i bought from the local market .. it was probably used by someone in UK but now its here and we could use it with any local sim. ...
i tried to gain root access to the phone by following instructions from the site
http://coolpstuts.blogspot.com/2009/07/how-to-mod-root-jailbreak-your-g1.html
now once the phone restarted after the innitial updation the phone naturally wanted me to sign into my google account (which im assuming is the regular gmail account) but all the access points are from TMobile operators and even if i try to change the access points to the ones of my local carrier it wont connect... as if there is no internet connection.
now the situation is that iam stuck while everytime i restart the phone it asks me to signin to my gmail account and i cant do that since i have a different operator. I need to UnLock the phone to other operators i believe so that it can read my SIM ....
Please HELP !!!
so do you have root access or not? if you do have root access then you can either flash a rom that is ADP based which will allow you to skip the initial setup or, go to this thread and
download file from the second post
remove .zip extension
place file on the root of you sdcard (the upmost folder)
boot into recovery (home and power)
go to the recovery console
press enter
type mount /system
then type mount /sdcard
then type cp /sdcard/apns-conf.xml /system/etc if the cp command will not work substitute it with mv
finally type reboot
if this method doesn't work then just flash an ADP based rom.
if you do not have root then look at this thread.

If you insert a non-T-Mobile SIM into a locked G1, it will present a lock screen before it shows anything else. So I am guessing your G1 is already unlocked? You just need to press menu at the Google sign-in screen and enter a new APN. Remember to open the menu and tap save when you are done entering the APN info.

You only have to sign in to Gmail once after the initial flashing of the rom. Now, you phone HAS to be unlocked in order for you to even get to the sign-in screen with non-T-mobile SIM. Sounds like all you need is APN Settings from your provider. Once you have those, hit menu button at the sign in screen and put them in. You should be good to go.
Good luck, let us know how it turns out.
wow guyz it worked.... cant thank you much !! i just threw in the correct settings and it went all good
my current situation is that i added "DREAIMG.NBH" and updated the phone with the file. ..
the second portion of the update was to reboot and than do the telnet thingy which i didnt do as of the moment .... this i was doing to gain ROOT access to the phone ... do you think that i should complete the TELNET portion of the update as well and than continue with anything or is there any way to upgrade to cupcake 1.5 (my ultimate goal) without gaining the root access ?

If you just want to update to 1.5 without gaining root, find a T-Mo EU update.zip file and run it in the recovery.
although the phone is unlocked (as per the experience) but if (lets say) i do update the phone to 1.5 without the root gain ... will it lock the phone again or something (asking me to enter only T-Mob SIM only) ??

No, there is probably no way to re-simlock a phone once it has been unlocked. Remember that the state of the simlock is stored internally in the baseband processor and is not affected at all by what you do on the main processor or in the accessible memory spaces.
thanks alot jashsu and others ... will bug u guyz laterz for other stuff ...
I've done an ESN Swap to a flashed HTC Vogue. The phone has Myn's Android Build in its internal memory. I called Sprint and they input the ESN in the system. Then they asked me to follow some steps including putting in my number the MSID, etc..., however my number has not registered as I can't get into the phone menu to edit the previous owner's number and MSID. I can even see his number listed in the "About Phone: Status" section.
My question is: How can I get around this? I've searched this and other forums and cannot find a solution. If there is a solution, can someone please help me? I'd appreciate some specific details as it's obviously frustrating not able to make calls or use the data since I haven't manually programmed it.
Thanks everyone for their help!

You have to flash to winmo and provision the phone, then flash back.
Thank you for the quick reply, but is there a tutorial that I can find exactly how to do it? My Windows Vista computer won't access my phone's SD Card or internal storage. Thanks again.
Hold the power and camera buttons while restarting, this puts the phone in bootloader mode (four bars). Then plug in the USB cable and run the stock HTC rom.

Ok...
edit removed, see below
try that. download the winmo rom of your choice, put the phone in bootloader (phone+camera+pinhole reset), THEN connect usb and run the ruu on your computer.
Thanks for your help. I'll try this after I get off work and let you know the outcome.
OK, I'm trying to do it right now, but how will this unlocker work if the phone is obviously in Android mode and doesn't have Windows installed? Windows Mobile Device Center does not recognize the phone? Please help.

Put it in bootloader BEFORE connecting it to the pc and see if it shows up in device manager. You probably don't need to do the unlocker part (since it's probably already done.) Just flash a winmo rom and provision the phone, make sure data, calls, etc, work, then flash back to android.
EDIT:
frak, I see why you're confused. see this post, not that other one:

1st: welcome to xda
I understand you are still on stock rom, did you install other apps? always helpful to add as many details as possible
did you update to latest version via SEUS?
read here and compare your settings
then i read somewhere a hard reset would help (will restore default settings), consider it
cheers
reply`

100 people view this page but only 1 answer .. no anyone here for help me. bye
don't get impatient and discouraged so fast, the response time is always variable
maybe you get an answer within minutes, maybe you don't get one for various reasons, help here is still optional and not mandatory, that's as it is
some here even have a real life
are you able to connect to internet in general, browse, read, whatever and only SMS don't work or is there a general connection setup problem? I would check that first (if not already done)
do you have a new X1? any idea about installed firmware (aka stock rom, when from SE)?
second thing you should consider is SEUS - the SE Update Service, you dl part of the connect software to your pc (go to SE home, support, select X1, ->update service, dl application) which then enables you to connect to SEUS
try to update to the latest firmware and retry sensing an sms
then drop some feedback
cheers

I should have asked earlier: is it a used X1? somehow doesn't sound like new...
search for software information, e.g under start - settings - system - about device (location depends on firmware version) and tell me what you find
get the device into bootloader and tell me what's displayed there, sounds like you are not on stock rom anymore
cheers
One simple thing. Did you check the sms service number? Its easy to forget this because nowadays it is common for smartphones (and dumb phones too) to get this number automatically from the sim card. Nonetheless I would check it to make sure you dont fall victim to such a basic detail. You can check it here: Phone\Settings\Services\Mailbox and SMS\
You can look for the correct number on your carrier's website (or you call them).
hello dear friends....I had some strange issue 2 days ago...my apps settings restore to time that I just installed them....
i would to hard reset my phone and it was a good time to doing it...so I did hard reset but after it another problem,call and SMS didn't work....some strange problems,so I Task 29 my phone but it hang on SE logo....
No way,I tried to SEUS my phone and this error appeared....
The Phone contain manipulated software and is not supported by this application
what I suppose to do???
First of all: Don't mess around with things like task 29 if you don't know what they actually do. Task 29 completely erases the rom section of your phone so it's no suprise your phone is no longer able to boot. Now you have to flash another rom in order to use your phone again.
Another remark, the fact that you use tools like task 29 and afterwards you try to use SEUS only confirms that you have no clue what you're actually doing. SEUS only works with original software, as soon as you change to a custom rom or even if you only install hard spl SEUS won't work anymore. So you need to read the corresponding tutorials (hard spl, back to spl, custom roms, task 29) and either get it done the right way or reverse to stock spl and rom. Good luck.
tnx dear friend for ur compelete answer,U are right,my mistake and I appriciate for ur guidence....
I have installed another ROM from SDcard and my problem is solved now,tnx again.....

When you do the wipe, does it then take you back to the default Google setup screen on the phone?
after the wipe i start the phone and then i come direktly to the setup wizard. enter the simcode, and contine with the wizard. Language new or old account etc. and then the funny enter a konto loop

"SIM Code"? You have a lock code on your SIM card? If so then search - I'm sure I have read about CM having major issues with SIM code locks.
a problem with the normal pin of my sim card? the 4 char pin?

Yes. Try sticking the SIM card in a different phone, disable the SIM lock code and try the install again.
but i dont have a lock. its a prepaidcard. no contract or something like that.
but i wil ltest f i can unlock something on this card
or is it possible to skip the startup wizard?
tried it one more time. i isert my konto, gone though the steps and befor i come to the normal phonescreen i come to the step, where i have to add a konto.
and i didnt found something to unlock on my card
OK i got the problem!
on the toilet you have the best ideas. i startet the phone without the simcard. it skiped the wizard automatikli.
But thanks for the idea with the simcard!
Hi everybody, I don't know if this will help all you but this is what worked for me (Android 6.0.1):
1. On the setup wizard (after factory wipe), connect to internet (wifi/data)
2. Select "Emergency call"
3. Call to any valid number (112 for example)
4. When the calls start swipe to the left on the dialing screen and you will see message and browser displayed (in my case the message method doesn't works).
5. Select browser.
6. Go to google.
7. Search for Package Disabler Pro 9.8
8. Download it and install it.
9. Open it and search for "Samsung account".
10. Click on Clear Data and then Disable.
11. Go back to google and search for QuickShortMaker
12. Install it and open it.
13. Search for "Setup Wizard", it will expand.
14. Select the one with ".setupwizards.SetupExitActivity"
15. Done! You can now use the phone and restart.
Ok after this you can go and check that there is no Samsung account displayed (Settings>Accounts), buuuuut, you can't add it . What I did was:
1. Go back to Package Disabler Pro and enabled "Samsung Account".
2. Then go to Settings>Back up and reset
3. Factory data reset
4. Asked for Samsung account and I inserted my real account.
5. Done, now I can sync with my account.
The oooooooonly issue that I can't figure out it's the way to remove the "Reactivation lock" from Settings>Lock screen and security>Find my mobile.
Well that's all hope it works for you guys.
If this doesn't work for you, you can check out unlockjunky, they will definitely be able to do it.
Good luck!!

112
What ever you do, absolutely do not dial for example ( 112 )
Turns out 112 will connect you to your local emergency dispatch.....
Ask me how I know...
please change your number in the above post for newbies who may be trying to learn and have no clue what these phones are capable of...

Mate, you are an absolute legend! I've been searching for 8hrs looking for a solution after hard resetting my phone and being unable to get past the Samsung Account lock afterwards (even though I had the right username & password!) About fifty useless/outdated YT videos & a few hundred websites/forums later - none of which were helpful, I finally stumbled across your post, despite it not showing up 8hrs ago when I came straight to XDA hoping to find a solution first.
I have an improved method for #2, 3 & 4 of your post and will add all relevant info soon (just need some kip now that the panic is over). I'll also expand a little on some details and include further options which worked in my particular case, but all n'all - you're an absolute legend mate and I'd be screwed & still panicking without your shared info. Huge thanks...

You have to dial an emergency number or this trick doesn't work. Its not practical for most folks but if you are worried about dialing an emergency number I'd recommend using a SIM out of a tablet that isn't phone number enabled.

Look for Aptoide apk download it to sd card and search for package disabler in this app and install it or download and copy Pachkage disabler you your sd card and run via file explorer or download and run ES File manager as I did.
when i make the call my wifi gets turned off and wont come back on till i restart the phone. i managed to open the browser but the wifi is off so i cant do anything after that except cry.
stock 5.0
Did you get it figured out I got the edge 6 plus to work fine now it was one of the tougher ones and I've done a few on some newer models what are you stuck on?
I thought the Combination Firmware would reset the FRP lock by default after being installed.
first thank you for sharing ur experience and i want to add
that i done it step by step and it works nicely but still cant remove the reactivation
and here is how iv done it after i bypassed it using ur method
i flashed a lower modem file from stock rom N910VVRU2BOG5 which is 5.0.1
at this point my imei went off
so i went for full flash by N910VVRU2BPA1_N910VVZW2BPA1_N910VVRU2BPA1_HOME. which is 5.1.1 and did full hard reset
then i just signed in with the last Samsung account i used with ur method earlier and it passed so now i can easly remove reactivation mark , unlock and root then make it Arabic .
thx again
Did you ever post up the suggested steps to replace #'s 2-4 in the original post above? I'm not seeing them anyplace. This would be a big help. Thanks.
When I call I can't swipe to the right is there another way to open browers
I successfully used this to gain access to my phone but I believe that if I power cycle it I will be locked out again. Is there any way to remove or change the samsung account now that I am in? The options are greyed out in settings.
ADB and Root.
Hey, I have been working on these for a while keep finding new things each time I try to remove Reactivation Lock. However I was wondering if I show you guys how to enable ADB with RSA Key, and Root the device. Could someone show me how to remove the Reactivation Lock using root. I used other methods on older and newer models, but these S5's are the only ones giving me issues.
After weeks of going mad trying different solutions I've found online, here's what worked 100% for me just last night:
Login to Samsung Account on other device, select Password & Security, enter password then choose Devices. LOG-OUT of your S6 Edge if listed, confirm. Next change password - doesn't matter what, can even change it back afterwards.
Flash Lollipop (I used G925VVRU4BOK7)
Wipe Data/Cache
Boot fresh Stock firmware, enter/confirm network details, at Reactivation Lock prompt, enter user & updated password. Sign-in....
Settings -> Lock Screen & Security -> Find My Mobile. Unselect Reactivation Lock and enter password... voila!
Works for anybody else??
