[Tutorial] D2G GSM band unlock--Worked on 330 to GB

We all know GSM band unlock is available on Froyo.
Now we can update to GB with Froyo's baseband, so it works too.
Here is more information : http://rootzwiki.com/topic/8326-d2g-gingerbread-hack-for-us-band-unlockers/
I'm curious, it says the GSM band unlock only works on 2.4.29's radio
But for me, it works on 2.4.330 very well. I never SBF 2.4.29, I always SBF 2.4.330 and use the unlock directly.

Unlock GSM 850/1900 fq, so it works on T-Moblie too.

Since you're with AT&T, are you able to get 3G too?

what if I update my phone to the current official version, How can I unlock the baseband?

That's because you couldn't follow the thread link. (That's a perilous endeavour, took me at least 5 secods.)

Simply pointing out that a link is wrong is what we should do. Looks like a spell check is a more perilous endeavor in your case.

Well, I assumed you knew the link was wrong, because it had no URI path element in it, which was kind of obvious.
Mind pointing out where exactly do I need spell checking? I would appreciate it. Unless you mean a mistype like “seconds”.

All the links work with #4 being the exception. Why not have a complete guide here? Sarcasm does not help the many that come here seeking assistance.

That link seems to be copy-pasted as text directly from a page, not from the source. As many forums tend to shorten visible parts of URLs, it was damaged when copied. That's about it.

so
.. and correct me if I'm wrong..
with this I can unlock my sim locked D2G ? and use it to make phone calls?
.. I'm overseas and my operator runs on 1900mhz

sorry guys, I updated 4# link.

No, this will not remove the sim lock protection off your phone. It will remove the restriction of using US GSM based providers such as AT&T and T-Mobile US, that Verizon implemented. This is NOT a sim unlocking solution.

You need to wipe data after sbfing back from GB. Try that (from stock recovery) if no go - SBF again. Check sticky threads too.

[Q] Unlock US Cellular Galaxy S3 To Use On GSM

Hi, first off I know that this is the Verizon section but there isn't a spot for U.S Cellular. OK, I have received a Samsung Galaxy S3 Model Number
SCH-R530 because the screen is barely cracked. The person got a new one and now I have this one. I have I Wireless for cell service which is a T-Mobile
affiliate. I Wireless uses GSM and I have a Mini SIM card in my Galaxy Nexus. When I dial the *#06# on the Galaxy S3 a MEID number comes up. When I
take the battery off and look there there is one IMEI and 2 MEID serial numbers. If I am correct I think IMEI is for GSM. This Galaxy S3 also has a SIMcard in
it which I thought CDMA doesn't use. It is a micro SIM and says US Cellular 4G LTE on it. Is there any way I could unlock this Galaxy S3 to use on my GSM
network? Please help. Thanks

Cdma only uses sim card for LTE. Just pointing it out lol.

So this Galaxy S3 won't work on my network?

It will work for gsm networks but you have to be rooted, edit the apn and i beleive you can only run 2g data. There is a thread about it somewhere around here on a howto for tmobile. And to the other person who said the sim is only for lte is correct, for verizon that is

So do you think it is worth it doing all that or just keep using my Galaxy Nexus?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2013647&highlight=t-mobile I would try it on a rooted JB rom from US Cellular, dont use the verzion rom of course

Any one has tried and succeeded?

If you root it then upgrade to AOKP 4.1.2 custom ROM or any other custom or stock style ROM thats 4.1.X (Jelly Bean), then there is a REALLY easy trick. I know it's harder for US Cellular only because they are still using 4.04 ICS which doesn't support the menu you need to do this, you need JB for this trick, if you have it stock like on T-mobile then no rooting or upgrading needed, but US Cellular it is. I used it to unlock my tmobile, and my friend and mom both have us cellular. After you Unlock it you can always go back to stock if you want, just make sure and after you root but before you upgrade the ROM you do a nandroid backup to go back to. After you have a Jelly Bean ROM installed,
1. Type *#197328640# and it brings up the factory service menu (very usefull)
2. Select (1) UMTS
3. Select (1)Debug Screen
4. Select (8) Phone Control
5. Select (6)Network lock
6. Inside the Network lock menu, Pick option (3) Perso SHA256 off, Passed that is a screen that says something like "no options in this menu, current command is 11863", Wait for 30-60 secs, from there hit the menu button on bottom left of phone to bring up options, Select "Back".
7. The last command should have brought you back into the Network Lock menu, at the bottom is (4) NW Lock NV Data Initialize, Select it. You might be asked a saftey are you sure, some people not, after it begins that process wait a good 60 sec the reboot. Thats it! Phones Unlocked
It would be good for you to root and upgade a custom JB 4.1.x or higher ROM anyways as they have support and menu options for working on all CDMA/GSM/LTE Networks. Even if you unlock your phone using the IMEI number and paying 20$ for the unlock code, you will still need JB. They also have apps on the play store specifically for galaxy s3's, capable of unlocking for allot cheaper if your phones rooted.
Good Luck!

Whether us cellular model has sim card slot for GSM? Verizon sgs3 model has sim card slot for gsm.
Thanks doesn't hurt....

How to use GS3 US Cellular for GSM , IS there any rom supports GSM & CDMA as rom verizon ?

hello guys is there any one who could give us a clear information about this version of the S3? ? i bought it and in israel there is no 4g lte so what should i do now ??

unlocking sim card
I have rooted my U.S cellular samsung galaxy sch-R530U, but I am wondering if anyone knows how to unlock the sim card? I tried so many ways to unlock it, but no luck so far. Thank you.

So, let me know if I'm correct
I have doing some research online, and I just want to know if I'm correct, Please, please someone answer me:
1. All Samsung Galaxy SIII, by US Cellular, even though using CDMA, ALL contains a SIM Slot for GSM network? (being one of the few)
2. Since it contains a SIM Slot, in order to work in a GSM network, one alternative could be to get it Rooted, and then use an Unlock Software?
Please somebody answers me, I bough a SGSIII on Ebay, and just found out about this.
Thanks!

Does it works for Us Cellulars?

I use cyanogen, install 4.1.2 and 4.2.2, I can not bring up the hidden menu any help??

Hey Everyone..... I'm here to say that this DOES WORK just fine and dandy. But there is a step that no one is telling anyone or else no one knew. You have to first unlock the hidden menu before it is accessible. Go to your dialer and type the following in and then change to "Enable". Press *#22745927 to enable hidden menu. Once done with that go back and follow what the previous guy said to do........

[Tutorial] [How To] Enable True Spark LTE If Missing Spark Boot Animation

If you have a Galaxy Note 5 (SM-N920P) 64gb and don't have the Sprint Spark LTE boot animation it is very possible that you may not be getting a true Spark LTE Signal. You may be connected to band 41 (Spark band) but could only be using 4g LTE instead of Spark LTE. This is a tutorial so you can rest assure you are getting the Spark connectivity you so well deserve as the majority 64gb models (and possibly some 32gb) don't seem to be updated with this right out of the box. So lets get started!
I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY OF ANYTHING YOU DO TO YOUR DEVICE TO RENDER IT USELESS
First thing you are going to want to do is download a program called ODIN 3.10.7, it can be found here: Odin 3.10.7
Next you need to download the stock TAR file to flash in ODIN which can be found here: N920PVPU1AOGD_N920PSPT1AOGD_SPR----STOCK TARBALL (Thanks rlmiller)
MAKE SURE YOUR VERIFY YOUR MD5sum!
Go into your Settings and if you don't have Developer Options enabled, enable it by going to your About Phone and tapping the Build Version a good 5 to 6 times until it says you are a Developer.
Go back into your Settings and you will see Developer Options. Under Developer Options, turn on OEM Unlock.
Boot into Download Mode after you have both of these files by holding Power+Volume Down+Home Button before the Samsung Logo appears.
Go past the warning screen by pressing Volume Up.
Connect your phone to your computer via USB cable and ODIN should recognize it is connected (if not you need to install Samsung Mobile Drivers).
Check AP and click AP
Select the Stock Tar file you downloaded. Under options, check the following: Auto Reboot, F. Reset Time, Nand Erase All, Phone EFS Clear, and RTN for Sprint.
Your phone will install the tar file after wiping everything and your progress bar will show.
Once you boot back up, some pop ups are going to occur for connecting your device to the carrier.
Allow these pop ups to proceed and reboot when requested.
Your PRL, Profile and RTN will be automatically updated and a reboot is necessary.
The final automatic reboot will give you a Sprint boot animation with the Sprint Spark LTE!
(There is no sun dial on the Galaxy Note 5 in the Status Bar nor is there on the Samsung Galaxy S6+Edge so don't be worried).

Can anyone confirm if this works?

I'm not sure if its working with Spark, but the Spark logo does show up now when booting the phone.
Also, I had an issue with my Note 5 where wifi calling would not show up and following the OP's method got wifi calling to show up.

I was missing wifi calling as well and this had fixed it for me. I forgot to mention that. I also forgot to mention out of the box there was no mobile hotspot feature and a factory reset fixed it.

Correct but without the boot animation you may not be receiving "true spark lte"
Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk

I just want to throw this out there. The yellow Sprint spark boot animation has absolutely nothing to do with wether your phone is or isn't receiving and utilizing the Sprint spark services.
From hearing your reports of missing features such as wifi calling and mobile hotspot, it sounds as if a batch of Note 5's have a bad firmware flash out of the box. These features are controlled by: 1. having the correct software for your variant of Note 5. 2. Initial setup using the correct CSC features for your device variant ( carrier, country, device model#). 3. your bootloader will access and identify your device model and use the corresponding CSC accordingly. The new Lollipop and later bootloaders play a much bigger role than all previous software versions. It is the central "hub" so to say. So as long as you have the correct software flashed on you device variant (wether brand new out of the box or otherwise) then doing a factory restore/reset or flashing the latest device specific software using odin will give you all of the intended features including the ability to access the Sprint Spark services, wifi calling feature, hotspot, system, update for sprint, etc, etc. This is a known fact and I have personally verified this theory over and over again on my Note 4 running lollipop 5.0 and 5.1.1. The same principles will apply to the note 5 and other Samsung devices running Lollipop 5.0 and later software. I hope this helps some of you understand why and how some features on you phone could simply be "missing" and/or not working. The bottom line is if you suspect your phone is missing features that another identical not 5 has right out of the box, then you may need to make sure your phone has the correct software flashed onto it and/or do a factory restore/reset. During the first boot is the critical time when CSC features is setup correctly on your phone. If something happens during this initial setup process it is very possible that some features, services, etc will not properly setup and you will be scratching your head in confusion. This bit of info should help you decide how to proceed with your device if you have similar symptoms. Fix it yourself by doing a factory reset and if that doesn't do it then flash the latest official Samsung rom tar using odin on your pc. This will set you straight. Thanks for reading.

The phone is spark capable right out of the box. The only reason this instruction works for giving you missing features however, is only because it's doing RTN. If you do nothing else but an RTN reset (carrier reset) using your MSL (Some devices may call for MSL), you'll trigger a provision and carrier specific features such as wifi calling, Hotspot, and carrier bloat apps will install. The dial code is ##72786#

Thank you guys for verifying the true source of what is happening here. I threw in wiping anything in case there were some type of stock issues we may need to get cleared before proceeding with a fresh new install.

Not necessarily true. I was missing wifi calling and doing a ##72786# didn't bring it back or install the feature. Using ##72786# doesn't require a msl and will only reset the phones provisioning and reprovision on boot up.
I also tried a ##786# or known as (##RTN#) and this reset the phone (factory reset) at as well as the provisioning. This didn't work either. Using ##786# requires the msl code.
Reflashing the stock rom via Odin, erasing the EFS and selecting the Sprint RTN option in Odin, made wifi calling come back.

##786# worked for me with LG G3, it wasn't provisioned out of the box. Maybe some phones need more like in your case, and thanks for clarification on the code

I had tried everything to this point after finding out wifi calling was not working but this seems to actually do the trick! Had a scare when the device would not activate but it turns out Sprint was doing maintenance at the time and so Hands-Free Activation wasn't working temporarily. Thanks a lot for the help!

Failed on me

If you have a Galaxy Note 5 (SM-N920P) 64gb and don't have the Sprint Spark LTE boot animation it is very possible that you may not be getting a true Spark LTE Signal. You may be connected to band 41 (Spark band) but could only be using 4g LTE instead of Spark LTE. This is a tutorial so you can rest assure you are getting the Spark connectivity you so well deserve as the majority 64gb models (and possibly some 32gb) don't seem to be updated with this right out of the box. So lets get started!
I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY OF ANYTHING YOU DO TO YOUR DEVICE TO RENDER IT USELESS
First thing you are going to want to do is download a program called ODIN 3.10.7, it can be found here: Odin 3.10.7
Next you need to download the stock TAR file to flash in ODIN which can be found here: N920PVPU1AOGD_N920PSPT1AOGD_SPR----STOCK TARBALL (Thanks rlmiller)
MAKE SURE YOUR VERIFY YOUR MD5sum!
Go into your Settings and if you don't have Developer Options enabled, enable it by going to your About Phone and tapping the Build Version a good 5 to 6 times until it says you are a Developer.
Go back into your Settings and you will see Developer Options. Under Developer Options, turn on OEM Unlock.
Boot into Download Mode after you have both of these files by holding Power+Volume Down+Home Button before the Samsung Logo appears.
Go past the warning screen by pressing Volume Up.
Connect your phone to your computer via USB cable and ODIN should recognize it is connected (if not you need to install Samsung Mobile Drivers).
Check AP and click AP
Select the Stock Tar file you downloaded. Under options, check the following: Auto Reboot, F. Reset Time, Nand Erase All, Phone EFS Clear, and RTN for Sprint.
Your phone will install the tar file after wiping everything and your progress bar will show.
Once you boot back up, some pop ups are going to occur for connecting your device to the carrier.
Allow these pop ups to proceed and reboot when requested.
Your PRL, Profile and RTN will be automatically updated and a reboot is necessary.
The final automatic reboot will give you a Sprint boot animation with the Sprint Spark LTE!
(There is no sun dial on the Galaxy Note 5 in the Status Bar nor is there on the Samsung Galaxy S6+Edge so don't be worried).

Quick question, is the spark animation something different than the yellow page with the Sprint logo... That's all that shows up when I restart my phone.. My LG G2 had another animation with the spinning sun logo after the yellow Sprint page... I have signal check on my phone and when I check it, it says the different bands I'm connected to like 25 or 26.. I've only seen 41 once in new Orleans.. What would be missing or the problem if I don't have the spinning sun logo animation if that is what you are referring to?

What if your all ready on AOJ6?

As far as I understand you don't need the Spark logo at boot for the phone to be on Sprint Spark.

Yeah, Sprint is removing the spark logo from the boot up and notification tray on all phones. Spark still active though.

will this work on the sprint note 4? n910pvps4cok1
or is there a different one for this device? TIA

The Note 4 is a spark device but it does not have carrier aggregation like the Note Edge and every other device after. Also you don't need this to get true LTE+ speeds on a CA enabled device. This was just a misconception by the op.
Spark is just the use of all three LTE bands wether they have CA or not. Unfortunately your Note 4 isn't capable. This is what LTE+/CA looks like and as you can see no spark symbol on my tray. On a positive side, you're probably up for an upgrade by now if LTE+ is really a big deal for you.

As you may have heard, US carriers did not receive a 5.1.1 Lollipop OTA update. They are not going to receive any Marshmallow 6.0 or Nougat (7.x) updates either. There are CM12.1 (Lollipop) , CM13 (Marshmallow) & CM14.1 (Nougat) customs roms available though. If you are a lucky owner of an XT1526/28/29 Moto E 2nd Gen 4G (Surnia) with an unlocked bootloader you can now also enjoy a stable stock rom intended for the Asian markets:
Current update options:
Android version 5.1.1
Android version 6.0
Carriers supported:
Sprint
Boost Mobile
FreedomPop
RingPlus
Ting
Virgin Mobile
TextNow
Verizon (XT1528 when an unlocked bootloader is available)
Open Mobile
LTE in Rural America (LRA) Partners
If you have a GSM carrier this may also work. Change the Preferred network type from LTE to Global.
In progress:
1. The 4G icon is the default rather than LTE icon. This was by design for this Asian rom. Looking into a better alternative than just replacing the 4G icons with the LTE icons located n SystemUI.apk.
2. Adding carrier specific apps. As I am a FreedomPop user, I only need to know which carrier specific apps are required for the following carriers: Sprint, Boost Mobile, RingPlus, Ting, Virgin Mobile, TextNow and where they can be located (Play Store, a different rom, etc.). If not downloaded from the Play Store, you must test them out first on the rom you are testing (5.1.1 or 6.0) before reporting back.
3.. Workaround for the menus for Activate/System Update no longer existing. (You can still update PRL by dialing # #72786# (# #SCRTN#).)
4. In About Phone->Status->Sim Status: it displays the network as your MVNO carrier when on 1XRTT or eHRPD 3G. Sprint is displayed when on LTE Band 25/26 or TD-LTE Band 41. ( The lock screen also does the same thing) . 1XRTT or eHRPD 3G is being retrieved from the data/eri.xml. Not sure where "Sprint" is being retrieved from but I think it has to do with Sprint's MCC MNC of 311 490 for LTE bands 25, 26, 41.
5. Locating the picture file displayed under Settings->About phone-> Regulatory information so it can be replaced with one for the XT1526/28/29.
6. Adding support for other CDMA variants (XT1528, XT1529, XT838L) if their boot loaders can be unlocked. I heard Verizon XT1528 is permanently locked. Not sure about Open Mobile XT1529. The XT838L is listed with the same hardware as the XT1528 & XT1529 but have no idea what country it is being sold in.
7. APN changes if necessary.
8. Safe way to make sure a newbie doesn't flash their bootloader to a previous version and possibly hard bricking their XT1526.
Let me know which carrier you have and Android version tested. Please test all of the following:
1x
3G
4G
Send MMS on 3g & 4g
Receive MMS on 3g & 4g
Send SMS on 3g & 4g
Receive SMS on 3g & 4g
Outgoing Calls on 3g & 4g
Incoming Calls on 3g & 4g
USB Tether
Wi-Fi Tether

[ROM][WIP] Stock Moto E (2nd Gen) 5.1.1 & 6.0 for Surnia CDMA, ROM for the Moto E 2015
Contributors
Buzbee2
ROM OS Version: 6.0.x Marshmallow
ROM Firmware Required: Unlocked bootloader and TWRP
Based On: Stock
Version Information
Status: Stable
Created 2016-03-22

Newbie Guide
If you do not want to update the bootloader, then basically, you go into custom recovery and flash the Surnia_Moto_E_2015_xxx_Stock_Partition_Updater.zip (xxx=5.1.1 or 6.0) first and then the stock rom of your choice.
The Surnia_Moto_E_2015_xxx_Stock_Partition_Updater.zip is necessary ONLY ONCE and ONLY if you have an EARLIER version of the gpt.bin installed. For example, if you upgraded to 6.0 and installed Surnia_Moto_E_2015_6.0_Stock_Partition_Updater.zip already and want to downgrade to 5.1..1 then don't run Surnia_Moto_E_2015_5.1.1_Stock_Partition_Updater.zip before the stock rom. You also don't need to use it if your reinstalling 6.0 or any earlier version either. If you downgrade, please DO NOT ACCEPT any OTAs as this may lead to a hard brick.
1. Backup the entire data on your Moto E 2nd Gen 4G before proceeding. http://guidebeats.com/2015/09/09/backup-data-android-smartphones
2. Sufficiently charge the Moto E 2nd Gen 4G battery before proceeding. At minimum 60%.
3. You will need an unlocked bootloader. https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a
4. Install the Motorola USB drivers to connect your Moto E 2nd Gen 4G to your PC. https://support.motorola.com/us/en/Solution/MS100797
5. Enable USB Debugging Mode on your Moto E 2nd Gen 4G, from Settings -> Developer options. http://guidebeats.com/2016/02/19/en...y-android-smartphone-running-at-kitkat-higher
6.Download, and then install the Minimal ADB and Fastboot tools on your PC. http://guidebeats.com/2015/10/12/guide-to-install-minimal-adb-fastboot-flash-tool-on-windows
7. Download the appropriate Surnia_Moto_E_2015_xxx_Stock_Partition_Updater.zip below.
8. Extract the gpt.bin and the bootloader.img to your Minimal ADB and Fastboot tools directory (along with a custom recovery if you do not have one installed yet - link below).
9. Boot into bootloader mode via [Press and hold the two buttons Vol. Down+ Home at the same time, Release all buttons when the Moto E 2nd Gen 4G vibrates and displays the logo on the screen.
10. Connect your Moto E 2nd Gen 4G to PC while it’s in bootloader mode.
11. Skip this step if you are downgrading or reinstalling the same version. Otherwise, double click the MAF32.exe in the Minimal ADB and Fastboot tools directory and type in the following commands:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash recovery <name of custom recovery image if you don't already have one, e.g. "twrp-surnia-3.0.2-r1.img">
12. Copy the proper stock rom below to your internal storage.
13. Tap the Vol Up/Vol Down buttons and choose recovery mode. Go to Wipe-->Advanced Wipe. Check Davlik /Art Cache, System, Data, & Cache. Swipe to wipe. Go Back and choose Install.
14. Select your stock rom and tap Install image.
15. After it completes, reboot phone and wait at least 12 minutes to get to the Welcome screen. I suggest waiting until you see a 3G or LTE icon before setting up Wi-Fi during setup.
16. Congratulations, you just updated to stock 5.1.1 or 6.0!

Known Issues:
1. Cosmetic
- (6.0 only) In About Phone->Status->Sim Status the Cellular network type displays as 4G rather than LTE.
- (XT1526 only) In About Phone->Status->Sim Status the Network shows as Sprint even if your using a Sprint MVNO or Sprint subsidiary. (The lock screen also does the same thing)
- The picture file displayed under Settings->About phone-> Regulatory information displays the SAR information for India's XT1521.
2. The menus for Activate Device (Self Service)/System Update no longer exist under System in the settings menu so you cannot access Update PRL, Update Profile, or UICC Unlock. Update Motorola software has been moved to System updates under Settings->About phone. XT1526 users can NO LONGER update PRL by dialing # #72786# (# #SCRTN#) either. You will need to make a backup, install another stock rom, update prl and profile, then reinstall backup.

Uploaded V2 for XT1526
Links for V2 are now in the Newbie guide in the post above.
I am now using the Christmas Nightly 2016 Cyanogenmod 7.1.1 rom. I will no longer be providing support in this forum for these roms.
Changes:
1. APN Changes
2. New Default wallpaper
3. The picture file displayed under Settings->About phone-> Regulatory information no longer displays the SAR information for India's XT1521.
Known Issues:
1. Cosmetic
- (6.0 only) In About Phone->Status->Sim Status the Cellular network type displays as 4G rather than LTE.

You will need to make a backup, install another stock rom, update prl and profile, then reinstall backup.
Optional:
For Sprint CDMA variants:
Reboot into Bootloader Mode, connect your device to PC and from PC terminal type:
fastboot oem config fsg-id boost if you are a Boost Mobile user
fastboot oem config fsg-id frdm if you are a FreedomPop user
fastboot oem config fsg-id rngplus if you are a RingPlus user
fastboot oem config fsg-id virgin if you are a Virgin Mobile user
fastboot oem config fsg-id sprint if you are a Sprint user or not listed
fastboot oem config fsg-id usc if you are a U.S. Cellular user
This was implemented by Cyanogenmod and I was going to use this to fix the remaining cosmetic issue in the Known Issues. I have lost interest in these roms so I am leaving that cosmetic issue unfinished.

I like this guide. I also own an xt1526 on sprint and successfully flashed the marshmallow rom using the instructions. Great Job!

Thank you for the instruction!
Is it still possible to root on the Marshmallow firmware?

Thanks for setting up this support thread Buzbee - I'm moving over here from the original one.
I'm still getting no joy sending MMS via LTE on Boost. I put in APN settings manually on Cypher's rom and that could send in 3G but as soon as I switch to Squid's CM13/Asian 6.0 OTA on LTE it fails with stock/Hangouts/8sms/etc. It fails immediately too - it doesn't even seem to be trying
An old thread on the Moto G forums suggested that Boost requires authentication for MMS on LTE but not on 3G. That probably means it's a big hassle to get it working but I'll keep digging and see what I can turn up. Thanks again for all your work on this, for everyone on all networks - it's very much appreciated.

Thanks for getting back to me. Settings does not want to play nice! I've added the APN but it only shows up if I'm in airplane mode. As soon as I reconnect (whatever my Preferred network type setting) it disappears and the original Sprint and Boost APNs come back. Switch to airplane and they disappear and the one I entered manually is there. Screenshots attached.
I've been playing around with various things and testing them with Debdude (who opened a thread about getting APNs to stick under Troubleshooting) but these errors and disappearing settings are weird. That's not the expected behavior, is it? It seems to affect most roms at the moment, at least on Boost (I've been flicking between the Asian MM OTA, Squid2's CM13 and Cypher).

They like to disappear when the MNC is zeros. Try Changing it to 120. If that don't work try changing APN to n.boost.ispsn like the other one.

Make sure to add 120 for the MNC or the APN wont appear in the list after you save it.

Thanks again.
I followed your advice with both the Boost_Mobile APN and installing Hangouts. Still nothing...until I tried again after a few hours and MMS worked, both on Hangouts and stock messaging app. Great, I thought, and uninstalled Hangouts. And then it failed again. Re-installed Hangouts, gave it a couple of hours, and MMS was back.
I know Hangouts uses its own APN settings which I believe it grabs when first sending an SMS, so maybe that's the key, although I was amazed that stock worked as well. I feel a bit like an impatient ---hole as it seems that giving Hangouts time will sort problems with the system. Either that or a combination of it and the extra APN, even if it doesn't show up under the APN settings. So thanks again for all your help.
If any Boost users are having similar problems I suggest installing Hangouts and then being patient...

The installation batch files are down. Are they just fastboot installers with some adb commands sprinkled throughout? I might be able to manage without them, but would much prefer the bat file.
If I wanted to upgrade straight from 5.0.x to 6.0, I wouldn't need to download the 5.1.1 ROM right? Just everything except that.

Yes you can go from 5.0 to skipping 5.1.1. One of the batch files was missing. It's back up now.

I use my phone wifi only and dont have servise on the sim. When I got to the part about conecting to the carrier after setting up the phone it wouldn't conec since I dont have service on my phone so I added my wifi (even tho it told me not to) now I'm in a boot loop what can I do to fix this and get back to 5.1

What was the phone's previous carrier? Sprint, Boost mobile, Virgin mobile, or FreedomPop, etc.? Is it a XT1526? If so, go here and download one of the roms (official or deodexed). Don't use any other zips on the site(partition updater, hotspot fox, etc.)

I got a US Cellular XT1526. I don't plan on using it on CDMA, only GSM networks like AT&T/TMO. Will this method work with GSM & how about flashing EU XT1524 6.0.1 OTA instead of XT1521?

I have never used the EU XT1524. The retail asia rom is all in English with nothing but Google and Moto apps. It has an extra google keyboard and language packs but they are not even noticeable unless you go into language and input. You could easily just install the XT1521 rom just don't apply the Buzbee_R3.zip. It shouldn't be needed. Don't accept any OTA's either.

150 fw was released for 636 for more than a week already.
152 was just released for 432 recently.

Hey, thanks for quick reply, can you hep me with something, don't want to brick my device.
i'm on huawei P20 PRO, bought it unbranded, i'm in France, i unlocked the bootloader and rooted the stock ROM ( magisk ) with custom TWRP , did not do anything else at this day. ( pic attched )
i'm on 131C432, i want to manually update the update to "152"C432 with GPU turbo ( pic attached from app Huawei Firmware Finder ), i saw full firmaware was available ( see pic attached )
My question is, can update with HuRUpdater method following the steps from the HuRUpdater Thread, without debranding, rebranding etc......... it won't relock my bootloader right , i'll just place his recovery into .zip to keep custom TWRP, flash full 152C432, then root.
thanks for lighting me the situation i'm into

Yes you can flash it via hurupdater no need to relock BL or rebrand or rebrand. If you want to keep twrp put the twrp.img (renamed to recovery.img) in the same folder with the fw and hurupdater.zip

hi there, can you elaborate on this?
4. Using ES explorer edited vendor/build.config to enable VOLTE for Airtel
5. Using Settings Editor app enabled 4G only mode.
will this work on other networks outside India? I´m in Vodafone Portugal, and all set with my sim but there is no way to get volte to work.

If you have rooted your phone successfully, Install ES explorer, In the menu allow root explorer.
THEN
GO TO DEVICE, SELECT SYSTEM-> VENDOR-> BUILD.PROP
IN BULID.PROP YOU FIND THE LINE COMMAND
ro.config.hw_volte_on=true
ADD THIS COMMAND LINE AFTER THE LINE
ro.config.hw_volte_dyn=false
it should be like this ro.config.hw_volte_on=true
ro.config.hw_volte_dyn=false
AFTER ADDING SAVE AND REBOOT YOUR PHONE.

I´ve done that on an previous firmware version and it didn´t work. No VoLTE, not even the option to change on the call settings. Are you sure it´s working on all suported carriers?
Anyone else outside India tested this?

Technically If your bands are built into the modem and restricted by region model it can be enables. For me, I have bought a Singapore Model and in India the device is not showing enabling VoLTE for carrier Airtel although it shows for a 4G only carrier JIO. I used this mod to get VoLTE on Airtel too.
So your issue might be the LTE band used for VoLTE itself not supported by the modem.

thing is,
my carrier band is exactly the same as JIO
so it definitely not about the band
do you set manual APN for your VoLTE btw ?
i tried setting up IMS apn, but everytime i save it, it disappear from APN list

I havent set Manual APN I left whatever carrier set. Giving false to the volte_dyn setting will give you an option to enable volte in network settings. Thats what I did.
Above that I am unsure what is happening in your part of the region.
