*#*# not working - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone able to get into the hidden menu using *#*#4636*#*# ? I could have sworn it worked not to long ago, but there is something I want to check there, and when I do it, the USSD Code Running pop up shows up, the circle spins, then it goes away. Running newest MM, unlocked bootloader with TWRP, but thats it. Not rooted at all. I did update the Google Dialer not to long ago (before it was pulled, then reposted on the PlayStore), could that have something to do with it, or do I need to be rooted?

its *#*#4636#*#*, do it right and it should work. amyways, i use an app for that instead. btw, just checked, it still works

grumbles...yep I just typed in the wrong code..I even researched the heck out of it before posting here!! Thank you!

Metro flashed Diamond trouble

alright guys still can't get this damn thing to work. I somehow have the last off digit incorrect on my phone number. I found this out when I tried to call my voice mail . So I assume this could be part of my problem . So I dial ##778# and go in to edit mode and try to fix the phone number. I go through and edit the incorrect number on everything I saw that had it. Then saved the settings and the phone restarts and when it does it sets everything back. . So I tried the Gaurdian removing cab file with no luck . Still can't edit my nam settings. So I took to my Metro guy who tried everything he could he even reflashed it with Houdini and still no luck. I know someone here knows what is causing this.

I figured it out lastnite. Had to flash back to the stock Sprint rom then edit all the settings to get them to stick. Then flashed back to a custom rom and all is good now .

[Q] No ''SIM unlock code'' prompt

Hello guys. I have a bit of a problem. I have bought a Droid 3 , blocked on Verizon and it doesn't ask me for the unlock code. I searched everywhere and did not come with an answer. I have to mention that I am from Europe and the person that had the phone before, tried to put the codes more than one times and that may be the cause. Can this be fixed? Thx.

Hi, did you try to leave the phone on for about 2 hours? It should ask you to insert the unlock code at a certain point, even if the maxumim number of tries has been reached.
Is it XT862 model?
Yes i tried, i left it for an entire night. Yes it is the XT862 model.

If you dial #073887* the sim unlock code prompt should appear.
Please try that, if you haven't done it yet.
Done that. Nothing happened. I dialed the code into the dialer application. Have i done something wrong? Thank for the help , by the way.

You're welcome.
I don't think you did something wrong, you just have to type that code in the dialer and when you insert the last '*' symbol the prompt should appear. I tried it on my Milestone 2 (that has never been locked) and it works.
Are you running the stock GB rom or there is a custom one installed?
Did you try with another SIM card?
i am running the stock verizon GB.

This is a known issue in around a third of the droid 3s. For some reason they can't unlock properly. It's possible that you have one of these...

[Q] No calling, no texting, everything else works

Hi everyone!
I bought recently a new galaxy s advanced and for some weird reason i can't make calls, can't text and can't receive anything. But i can unlock my sim without any problem and i can use mobile internet.
I had first the original gingerbread rom (i9070XXLK2), rupgraded it to 4.1.2 jelly bean(i9070XXLQE), rooted it, upgraded the kernel to this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2140597 and after that tried a cyanogen rom(this one => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2497660 ), went after the cyanogen back to the 4.1.2 but nothing works.
atm it is running original 4.1.2 rooted and cwm.
I also tried galaxSim but it doesn't support the galaxy s advanced, also the *#simlock# thing does not work. I am not sure there is a simlock on the phone because mobile internet works.
If you need more info just ask! Not really sure what information you need to know.
I have no idea what to do now, i hope some1 can help me.

You must do Factory reset when you change ROM. Do it now.
Do you have I9070 or I9070P? On CM you do not have network unless you change tee folder if your phone is I9070P.

I have factory resetted it 3 or 4 times (after every rom flash).
It's an I9070, not the P one.
If some1 tries to call me they hear an automated message tape thing that says my number is blocked and i need to call my provider.
I did call my provider and there is nothing blocking my number or the phone.
When i put my sim in another phone everything works fine so the issue must be in the phone itself.
Thanks for trying to help :highfive:

I tried 3 different SIM's but all from the same provider, i am going to visit a friend tomorrow to lend his SIM (he has another provider). I wiped dalvik cache every time i factory resetted it (after every rom flash)
Is it possible there is a piece of hardware in the phone blocking the calls and the messages?
Found out something new, if i do phone (the app) => call settings => additional settings, i get a message saying "network or sim card error".
I am searching for an hour now for a fix but i can't find anything. I will keep searching for another couple of hours, i really want to fix this.

I don't know, as far i can see there is no sign of a provider/region lock. During boot no logo from a provider, sim can be unlocked when it asks for my PIN.
I tried to figure out if there is a simlock with *#SIMLOCK# but the code does not work. Any idea how i can see if there is a sim-lock?

I am not sure where you can look for that. And you bought from store or? You can go there and ask them maybe what is the problem. You have warranty?

I bought it from an auction, a phone shop went bust and they sold thousands of phones. They had over 20 shops and they were not promoting a provider.
it was brand new in a sealed box and as far as i know i don't have warranty.
Is there a place to check if there is still a warranty on the phone?
EDIT: just checked and i have still warranry (produced at oktober 2012) but the problem i have now is, i flashed it a couple of times, isn't my warranty ruined now?

I am not sure how is it in your country about that. You can go to some service center to see if the phone is locked to some carrier.
I just tried to check the binary counter, but as far as i can see it didn't move during the flashes and looks original
When i go in download mode i get this:
Odin mode
Product name: GT-I9070
Custom binary download: no
current binary: samsung official
I think this means it got still warranty?
If it is, i'm going to put back jelly bean on it and try to send it back to samsung, is there a chance they will fix it and won't find out i messed with it?

Sad news, the phone is back from RMA and there is a simlock on it, but the problem is i can't find a method to remove it 4 free (don't want to pay even more for the damn thing). I am going to a shop from the original carrier over a couple of days(i know which carrier simlocked the crap out of it and they have shops not really far from here) but i am not sure they unlock it for free, and tbh the people that work there probably have no clue how to do it, so i don't have a lot of hope for that so i want to try it first myself if that's possible, but i tried already a couple of things and none of them works. Anyone an idea how i can remove it?

I was afraid of that, thanks to confirm. Went to the carrier which locked the phone and they said it is illegal to unlock it, which isn't true of course (checked it everywhere and it is legal) I will find a way to fix it with the carrier, thanks for the help.

Assuming you're trying to GSM unlock, you need to be rooted and do that command in Android Terminal Emulator.
However, you can just use this and it will do it automatically.

Same issue
I have an unlocked Sprint HTC One M7, but it kept dropping the network. After some research, I was led to believe that if I changed the setting to WCDMA Preferred, I wouldn't have to keep selecting T-Mobile as my network. I dialed *#*#4636#*#* and changed the necessary setting, but it did not work. THEN I became curious and accidentally selected some kind of lock. I erased my entire OS and had to flash a Stock Rom (Rooted and Deodexed however) using OTG/USB. BUT THE PHONE IS STILL LOCKED :crying:. Someone who knows what they are doing please help me with this $500 Paperweight. I'm learning the hard way apparently. BTW, I don't care about the SIM unlocking issue anymore. I just need to be able to use the phone.

Kk. I've tried to do the fix even though it probably wouldn't affect anything, and it didn't work. It might've been because I was on 4.4.2, and the guide was probably made when Jelly Bean was out, so Sprint might've patched it. Anyways, let me know if you get it working and post your steps on how you did it if you followed it differently.

Current Version is not available for user. Error on startup.

Hi there,
after flashing an ebw version (since there seems to be no androind 10 ua version) on my v405ua i get this error/warning message everytime i boot up the phone, which says "current Version is not available for user. Can't find matched carrier. Check NT-Code ....."
How do i fix this Warning ? Since basically everything seems to work as usual, my lte wifi 5 etc. all work just fine. Except for when im in the NL i cant get an internet connection through the mobile network, is says something is wrong with my apn settings.
Help is much appreciated, and thanks in advance.

The NT-Error code thing has been discussed quite a bit, as it's very common to anyone that has cross-flashed. There are various things people have done and some have worked for some, but not others.
First, it's not a problem, it's just something that shows up when u boot up, after that it's inconsequential. *But*, I found that if I did a Lgup partition DL of the rom (that I wanted to cross flash to), let it boot up, then shut it off. Then do a 'Refurbish' with the exact same rom. Then I'd no longer have the NT-Error code show up.
As far as the mobile data goes, just verify what the apn settings should be, it may be as simple as that.
cheers
Would a "reflash" to an ua version solve the problem ?
for example there seems to be a verizon version of the 405ua available, would that solve the nt warning ?

If you're doing a part D/L select all but ftm. After it reboots, go to Lgup mode again and do a 'refurbish' with the same kdz.
Most of the time that gets rid of the nt code thing.

When u get that crossflash issue u have to use a different version of lgup. If you look in the 'guides' forum, there will be links to (I believe it's) ver 1.16, a newer version that will work with newer versions of the roms.

I have this message that pops up on my V450VM. I assume it was related to Navigation Gestures that I used, and loved, on my V405QA7. When activating and setting it up, my V50 downloaded Nav Gestures from backup and when the phone updated to A11 I found the app was incompatible. I deleted the app and key. Ever since, rebooting has brought up the notification and I assume something didn't delete from the app. Guess I may have been wrong. I'm living with it and it doesn't seem to cause any issues but my OCD flares everytime :/
