Hey all!
So my problem is that my SGS can't find any SIM cards...
First of all i got 2.1 android and then i updated to 2.2 version:I9000NEJP2
After that it seemed that my SGS was really slow, so i decided to use CFW.
I installed Darky's v.8.0
Everything worked fine, was really fast.
The next step was to unlock the simlock. First i tried SGS Unlock freeware.
I watched some vids and read some threads and the most of em said or wrote that this app worked fine. I tried it but the app couldn't find any codes on the phone.
After that i decided to try the PC version. I downloaded "Generate Unlock Windows" but this doesn't work for me too. No keys were shown in the box -.- .
So i tried it sometimes, and the result was, that i couldn't use my SGS any more.
Can't find the sim. I tried several times, nothing worked.
Then i downgraded my fw to I900XXJP2 once more, but useless...
does anybode have an unfreeze code, or does anybody know how i could solve that prob?
maybe unlock-code?
and if yes, where could i get this the best way?
Simlock is [3; Austria]
IMEI (still the original one): 354795/04/228598/8
thanks for any kind of help
maybe i'll sound a little bit nooby, but i'm new in that forum and also a new android user
thx
This may or may not solve your problem but some people have found that their SIM card seems to stop working after they have changed their product code. The fix for this is to run the following commands from ADB (you need to be rooted with SU installed):
- adb shell
- su
- busybox chown 1001:1001 /efs/nv_data.bin
- reboot
Or if you have a Terminal Emulator on your phone you can do the following:
-su
-chown 1001:1001 /efs/nv_data.bin
-reboot
AFAIK it can't do any harm running this file ownership command on nv_data.bin even is it isn't the cause of thr problem so give it a try, I hope it helps!
so first of all i got to tell u, that i've never used ADB before, and i do not know what that is and how i can start that
i started to google it but after reading several pages i'm do not know more...
could you pls tell me how i can start and type that?
and also where i can find it?
thx
didnt work
I tried the one with the terminal emulator..
did everything like u wrote, reboot...
nothing happened
seems that i ruined something -.-
maybe an other idea how i could solve that prob?
additional information: i got a little simcard symbol at the top of the screen and next to it there is a callsign
try nav_data.bin copy to your pc and run sgux from cmd or post it here
can't find the efs folder on my phone, where should i look for the file?...

in market download super manager also install busybox if you don't have
run super manager>settings>select busybox file
then select /system/xbin/busybox
and select enable ROOT function
after that run file explorer in super manager and go back till first folder isn't acct and 2nd cache folder; now scroll to efs and copy nv_data.bin to sdcard
after that you can unclick enable root function in settings of user manager

Ok i searched with astro for it and i looked for it manually.
Astro couldn't find it and i also saw that there isn't anything in the efs folder.
So now i got a problem, right?^^

So for ON is network lock which is good.
Ok you keep your orginal nv_data file on pc and copy these files to your efs folder with super manager. Then reboot phone and post back does sim work now.

so what could i do now?
I found that thread, but i don't know what i have to put in there.
Do you know a side where i could find the codes for other countries?
Or what things i shall do too.
This guy wrote that he tried it at 2.1 and i have 2.2.
Could that be a prob?
thx for ur help
when you enter code from post before what does it say on first option? is it on or off now

Not sure but try this. delete files I send you in elf folder and copy these 2 files from zip and then reboot phone and see with code is network lock on or off and if it doesn't work then delete files from elf folder (ones I send you) and copy orginal nv_data.bin back; then reboot phone and with code see network unlock
and please post back for all situations. Also try booting phone without any sim in it and then with sim
when enter code if no locks are there then it should be everything like in picture

OK this is last shot. If nothing worked before try these 2 files from zip on phone and post back; and before coping them delete old ones and also can you post your nv.log from efs folder?
Tried everyone of your solutions and in every case i could NOT see the [ON] or [OFF].
It seems like it disappeard. Only space left, no symbols, nothing.
And the card can't be found too.
ups sorry forgot to attach 2 files. If this doesn't work I don't know what will. then put back orginal file in efs folder.
Also if you know someone who has also sgs still locked to your network copy his files here (complete efs folder)
all files I posted are modified and worked without problem on my sgs. Also please post nv.log from you efs folder here
I just made the move from the CyanogenMod 7 that was OK and had all the Gingerbread features included including integrated SIP support that work perfectly with my VOIP.MS account. After reading what people in the forums were saying about JVK I made a move over to a custom JVK rom and found it much more stable and complete vs CM7. I would like to know if it’s possible to add back the features that Samsung removed from gingerbread like the integrated SIP client?
If you want to enable sip for jvk you can put the attached file in "system\etc\permissions\", then reboot phone and create accounts in settings/call settings.
Also, you can modify framework-res.apk to enable sip over 3g by editing "res\values\bools.xml" and setting "config_sip_wifi_only" to false. Good luck.

No such file here, not even a "values" folder in "res". Did a find and grep search, still nothing.

You have to decompile framework-res.apk using apk manager, then you'll find the xml you need to modify.

Could this work also with SGS2 (KE2)?

Yes, it should work. You should deodex your rom first, and modify framework-res.
Mhh, put in the missing xml file and voip is working on the SGS2.
My only problem is that callers are reporting very low speak volume from my side.
Does anybody know how to increase the microphone level a bit for this case?
Oh well, just mentioned that now Android phone app will crash after taking a voip call. Seems the implementation from sammy is buggy...
I am currently on KE2.

I've looked in the deassambled s2 Phone.apk and Samsung seems to has modified some details in the Phone app, but the main and the most part is there.
Just waiting for my S2 to check if these crashes are related with removing some piece of SIP relateing code from PhoneApp.java

I have tried, using the "File Expert" App to copy the file into \system\etc\permissions. but the problem is, it does not arrive in the folder. i guess it's because of the only read permissions for "permissions" folder.
so what's the way to copy a file into this folder? the device is rooted. (but i'm new with root on android...)

I don't use "File explorer" but "Root explorer" and on the right upper corner there is a button where you can change to read only or write and read.

When I'm connected to WiFi and try to make a call, my cell phone simply ask me if I want to make cell phone call or internet call.
As I can remember, to activate this function you have to go to settings/call setting/internet call setting (this is the last option on the bottom) and than in "Use Internet calling" change to "Ask for each call"
so, you can modify framework-res.apk to enable sip over 3g by editing "res\values\bools.xml" and setting "config_sip_wifi_only" to false.

I believe you have to do exactly what is written above, but I tried to do it and It wasn't working over 3G

Yes, calling using wifi works. But i also want to activate it in G3.
Sorry for asking so silly, but HOW can i do exactly what is written?
If i go to /system/framework/framework-res.apk in Root Explorer, and select it, i have only the chooice to "install" or "view" the package. No way to edit something inside the apk!
as an alternative attemp i have tried so simply copy an alternated version of framework-res.apk on it's place. but this ended still while copying in problematic messages and i needed to restore my phone from cwm backup... (the alternate version i took out of the first download link out of this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14584886&postcount=142)

I am on kens 4.5.91 based rom and there is no line 156, any ideas.
kens rom did not come with it pre enabled ?... well I have never ran it so i wouldnt know but if its failing due to start and saying not authorized, than you need to find the entitlement check it should be in the motorola settings one some where , I am sorry i cant be more help but if it is indeed different from some reason it is hard for me to know with out using it or having it here to search for it

No, it was not pre-enabled. When attempting to use mobile hotspot you get the message about the account not being authorized, because well, it really isnt.
I found the entitlement check on line 118 set to 1. Changed it to disabled, will post back with results after reboot.
[edit] Works like a charm!
I found the "entitlement check" at line 153. changed it to "disabled" and it's working. I guess it's handset dependent. Filter under "entitlement" and you'll find it.

I am hoping that someone with an Ativ S can download the "DiagnosticTool_Sprint" from the Windows Phone store and upload it here. It is available if you set "oemId=htc" in fiddler. I think there are some hidden pages we can use to interop unlock HTC.
Link:
"DiagnosticTool_Sprint" for Windows Phone http://www.windowsphone.com/s?appid=e69a2877-59b8-43ed-898d-554fbc4b8b2b
Thanks!
To be clear, you are asking that somebody download this HTC app to their phone and install it, then use the MTP full file system access to extract the binaries for reverse engineering? Sounds like a plan, if I could persuade my phone to do the full file system access thing right now I would (away from home, on my Surface RT right now).

Hi
first to download this app we need someone with a sprint device to grab correct url using fiddler.
like this one:
Code:
http://marketplaceedgeservice....................os=8.0.10512.0&cc=us&lang=en-us&hw=268473858&moid=sfr-fr/
this way we can have correct hw & moid value & install on any device...
@GoodDayToDie yup. that is what I am asking for. Based on what @thals1992 saw when he was playing with this on his 8XT is that depending on what dial codes you put in, the same app loads with different pages.
@xboxmod the only thing that needs to be changed to enable downloading from the store is the oemId. It needs to be HTC. I was able to download it to my T-Mobile Branded 8x (which Sprint doesn't even sell) with no issues. (it's moID is "null" for some reason on my phone after applying GDR3 and hard resetting)

The IMEI is not supossed to change, is your phone's UINIQUE number. Try editing the build.prop for model number and see if it works for you.
