[Q] Box requesting network unlock code won't appear. How do I access it?

Hello,
I am new to the forum and very much a noob. I had bought my SkyRocket in Miami nearly 2 years ago and it came unlocked (i believe the original carrier was AT&T since there was AT&T bloatware, even though there is no ATT logo on top of the screen, it has a Samsung one instead), however i never even had the original carrier's sim chip. It worked fine with two different SIM chips from different carriers until last saturday when I flashed a ROM update (updated to Jelly Bean 4.1.2 Stock) via Odin.
However, whenever i insert my SIM (which was previously working), instead of popping a box/window to request me a code, it forces me to reboot saying there is no valid SIM (print below).
edit: as a new user I cant post the print screen. it basically is a popup where the Title says: "SIM Card Removed", the content says: "The mobile Network will be unavailable until you restart with a valid SIM card inserted", below that there is a button called "Restart", which reboots my system. Whenever i boot my phone with SIM inside this message appearst and I cant close it, the only thing I can do is restart and remove the SIM if I intend to do anything on the phone.
Anyway, I would very much appreciate your help in trying to get that box requesting network unlock code to pop-up, does anybody know how to do it?
ps: service mode runs extremely slow and does not respond to most commands
pps: already tried typing different combinations of the *7465625*638*# codes and the phone does not respond to such commands (i.e., i insert the code but it doesn't display any alert or enter another screen, it just allows me to keep typing)
ppps: I'm also looking for an ICS stock rom to see if I can unlock it using an older firmware, but i can't find an an odin-flashable stock ics for download anywhere
pppps: I've already wiped cache and partition a few times, to no avail.
I know this is a long post, but I really appreciate and thank you in advance for your help.

need to be on stock to enter code, try jb stock
read the 1stop sticky(link in my sig) for all your needs todo so, theres even a free method to unlock sim if ur code fails

The problem started exactly when I flashed the update to Jelly Bean 4.1.2 Stock.

if u read the 1stop sticky, i know its long, u wouldve found a rogers ics for odin, a flashable stock att ics for recovery, and a free method to unlock sim.
what do u mean problems started after updating to jb, was it unlocked b4, if so updating shouldnt have reverted the unlock
edit: reread ur 1st post i think the problem is ur radio(jb radio) for the carrier u r trying to connect to, read the radio section in the 1 stop sticky

I updated to JB using one of the instructions I found on this forum ([HOWTO] NEWB GUIDES To | RESTORE TO STOCK | USE/T.S. ODIN | INSTALL TWRP/CWM | ROOT - thanks for the response here and the tutorial there, by the way). It was unlocked before, but I assume it had something to do with the previous firmware, because the sim unlock stopped working after I flashed JB through Odin.
ps: as I said I already bougght it unlocked and assumed it was from ATT given the bloatware, however my GF just pointed out the rogers logo on the back, therefore i think the hardware is from them instead. I'm downloading their rom and will reflash it and hope it works, i'll update the status here as soon as I make any progress

Hi, i just flashed a rogers rom and it worked. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. But wow, it runs much smoother than it did when running the wrong firmware. Idk why but whoever sold this to me had installed at&t firmware (it was always very glithcy, but i just assumed it was down to the hardware), i know that now because i see that rogers has a diferent intro than att app had either on gingerbread or jellybean.
Anyway, thanks for the help and - again - sorry for taking your time needlessly, i should've paid more attention to my own phone.

Can't update from 5.0.1 to anything

Hi guys, 2 days ago I got this phone off-contract, and I can't update it. At start I filled it up with a bunch of software to check it out, and today I did a soft reset, as I read that it can't help if you can't get an android update and I wanted to get rid of all the stuff I installed.
Thing is, when I go to "check for updates", it says my device isn't registered. I tried 2 soft resets so far and no luck.
Any thoughts on "how to register"?
Thanks!

Register the IMEI by calling ATT (611). You should be able to do the same with its MVNOs too. You can only retrieve the OTA by using one of the two.
Also you can bypass the 24hr nonsense by calling customer service, then asking them to push it from their tech department.

Errr... I got it from a Cellphone shop here in Serbia, I'm not sure where they acquired it, or from which operator it is. How do I find out who I need to call/email or whatever?

My bad, I assumed you had the H950 (att logo on back). If you're using an international variant, which I believe is H959 the method is probably different.

Yeah, sorry I'm still not familiar with model number but it's an international version.
Any idea is welcome
EDIT: Seems it's a H955.

When you removed stuff did you use root at some point? Also are you updating over a wireless carrier or WiFi?

Nope, I never rooted the phone, never used low-level access on it. Just tried apps via Google play that don't require root. Even than the phone didn't want to update, and it still doesn't want to do it. I also installed LG PC Suite and tried to update the software via it, but it doesn't work either.

Okay, you'll need help from another member with that model. Anything I say will be based off of my time with the H950, sorry mate.

1. Unroot
2. You can use H950PR ROM or go official ATT route
3. There's a thread on PR / if you want ATT's 2 5.1.1 OTAs you'll need a gophone SIM ($2/day), ATT MVNO, or a friend's SIM
4. You can wait patiently for weeks or call 611 while using their network
5. Ask the rep to be transferred to tech support, then tell them you need an update pushed
6. They'll push it if they're knowledgeable, you'll get 11x
7. Repeat following day for 11z

Sure, no problem. If we don't get an answer and I still won't be able to get that update automaticly, is there a way to flash it with a newer version downloaded from xda?

You can flash the 5.1.1 kdz file.

Just to tell the end of the story, I returned my phone since it couldn't be updated to 5.1.1, I got a H-955A which didn't have any issues with that.

[SM-G920R7] S6 Thread

My goal would be to install Cyanogenmod on my SM-G920R7, but haven't been able to find too much help. Any of the rooting methods that seem to work on rest of the S6 variants, doesn't seem to work on this one. There is no TWRP available that I know of.
I would really appreciate any possible help. Thanks in advance.

i have the same problem
I think that this version of the s6 (the cspire version) isn't widely available enough and no one has bothered to make a root for it - ive been searching for a long time and still haven't found anything

I'd like to at least be able to root this thing.. On 5.1.1 now.

I have a rooted cellphone of this version (I purchased it rooted), is there any workaround to unlock GSM/LTE bands on this device?
----
Edit... Okay, so I went back to fresh stock with SmartSwitch, then flashed twrp-3.0.0-0-zerofltespr and Unikernel-v9b-BOH1-920P-100815 via odin 3.10.7, and rooted again... any method to enable gsm on this device yet?

Yes, it was SM-G920R7... first, I flashed twrp-3.0.0-0-zerofltespr , then Unikernel-v9b-BOH1-920P-100815 , both via ODIN (you can google both files), note these files are NOT for r7 version (they're for sprint version *g920p*) but they'll root the phone.
I ended up getting rid of the phone as there's afaik no way to enable gsm on it

That's not true. I finally rooted that model and got TWRP installed, and followed the steps to get the Sprint Galaxy S4 domestic SIM unlocked. I finally got data and texting working last night, but I can't get calls to work for some reason on an AT&T SIM card. It even shows up at AT&T as my provider. AFIK it is now SIM unlocked, the only thing not working is calls like I said. I'm sooooo close to getting this working. I need people with this phone that are doing the same thing i'm doing! I only paid $50 for it! lol

Can u help me get mine unlocked , ive already rooted the phone.

Any way to get the G920P roms to work on this variant? I've had luck with them with other c-spire/ntelos/r7 phones in the past. I'd like to flash Renegade to it...

Wonder if anyone has got calls working using GSM sim card? I have the cspire G920R7 rooted with LTE data working using AT&T sim.
Won't receive calls (straight to vmail) and when placing calls dialer says CALL ENDED immediatly after dialing.
hmmm.

I'm working on this too. So far I've got the same situation as you, Data works but no calls/text.
in a few weeks the person who wants me to unlock this phone for them is switching carriers and plans on buying a new phone to use until I can unlock the S6, so I'll have more time to mess with it then.
There's a few things I want to try, but I can't post links here (XDA rules).
One involves Rooting and using a service code to unlock the bands (google "TeamUSCellular GSM unlock S6")
The other also requires rooting and involves using "galaxy tools" to unlock the bands (not sure if this app works with marshmallow, though) (google "theandroidsoul how to sim unlock sprint galaxy S6")
My hopes are not high for getting this phone to work fully. I've also been trying to get custom ROMs to work, but I can't get the cell radio to work at all on custom ROMs. Even with the stock SM-G920R7 Kernel straight from the latest update .tar

Thanks for the suggestion, yeah I have tried galaxy tools (GT) to change the phone mode to LTE/GSM auto and tried different CSC values, and accessed the hidden menus through there. The sim unlock in GT asks for a code which I dont know, but the phone doesn't seem to be locked anyway since it doesn't care when I try different sim cards. Weird thing is the GT app doesn't work very well (most hidden menus not working) on the current rom i'm using but worked better on the stock cspire rom. Note, I tried using MSL 000000 in ##3282# data menu and it works but most the settings in there don't seem to be applicable to GSM networks.
Currently I'VE been messing with the build.prop file, also tried the CDMA to GSM flashable zip which edits the build.prop but nothing has gotten better. One time after editing the build.prop the phone would only turn on with a blank screen and vibrate every few seconds, that was SCARY. Also was planning on flashing other radio/modem but having trouble finding many of those files and pulling them from roms seems difficult to get the correct file to flash on odin.

I'm not sure you'll even be able to flash other models' modem..? I can't say I've ever tried.
Anyway, getting your hands on the firmware is easy. Just use SamFirm (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/tool-samfirm-samsung-firmware-t2988647)
To use it, just input the model number (SM-G920R7/R4/P/V/T/A) and the region code, then select "auto".
Region codes and model numbers:
C-Spire: ACG (SM-G920R7)
US-Cellular: USC (SM-G920R4)
Sprint: SPR (SM-G920P)
Verizon: VZW (Locked out from download, app can't download) (SM-G920V)
T-mobile: TMB (SM-G920T)
ATT: ATT (Locked out from download, app can't download) (SM-G920A)
This app downloads firmwares directly from Samsung servers, so the download is really fast and guaranteed to be perfect/stock.
**the SM-G920R7 is closest related to the SM-G920R4 (US Cellular) & SM-G920P (Sprint). The US Cellular one recently supports GSM Bands natively without any rooting/messing with hidden settings, so that's where i'd start. You may not even need the baseband/modem, just flash the rom? I'm not sure. Good luck dude It'd be awesome if you get it working
*** Also, make sure you have a backup of your EFS before messing with the modem. Apparently if you flash an incompatible modem you can erase/corrupt the EFS partition and lose your IMEI. Hell, make a FULL backup with TWRP, and make sure that backup is copied over to your computer before doing any flashing. You can't be too careful with this.

Haven't had any luck flashing stock firmware or modems from other models using Odin, errors with a security message or something, tried G920A and G920R4. Probably for the best I suppose. Flashing custom roms has not been a problem, even if the don't work properly. Wonder if there is a test mode or way to use logcat to see why calls don't proceed like normal. Never worked on going CDMA to GSM before, I always did CDMA to CDMA in the past.

Can't determine the correct model of s5

Hello everyone first time posting on her, anyway my brother in France sent me a Galaxy s5 it was running lollipop 5.0 so naturally i wanted to upgrade i did a manual update search but it said that's the recent one so i took a look under the battery and the stickers says my phone model is SM-G900T but when you boot in odin mode at the top it says the model is SM-G900P so i got confused after that i went to sammobile and downloaded marshmallow for both models and tried to flash them m. The T-Mobile's ​one failed odin said something about authorization but the sprint one went okay the phone works okay great in fact i rooted it and everything exept i can't get 4g to work only 3g i searched in the forums and found out about unlocking band 3 but i have to have an MSL code or something and i have no idea how to do that. The phone is unlocked by the way i live in Tunisia and get data and calls fine so my questions are
1- what's the correct model of my phone?
2- how to enable band 3 so i can get 4g on my phone?
Any help would be appreciated thank you guys

You can try getting the MSL with this method: https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-galaxy-s6/general/to-msl-t3553758 You'll need to be rooted and have ADB installed to your computer for this to work.

Any way to flash G930T firmware on a G930P that is on QJ3 current Sprint firmware?

Basically my phone is updated to Sprint version G930PVPU5BQJ3, and that version apparently has an updated bootloader. T-Mobile's current rom is G930TUVS4BQJ2 with an older bootloader.
Since the QJ3 bootloader is new, I can't successfully flash any firmware that is below QJ3, meaning I can't successfully flash T-Mobile firmware (or unlocked S7 firmware).
Does anybody know if there is anyway around this, or do I need to just wait a month or so for a new version of T-Mobile's rom that has the bootloader updated the same as the Sprint firmware?

Thanks. That's what I thought I but was hoping I was wrong.

firmware bootloader ver.
I have the same problem, no mobile data is killing my functionality. Regardless of whether or not I'm connected to a T-mobile APN I get nothing but calls and messages (texts only no mms/pics), no mobile data of any kind.
Is there a place where the current bootloader priority for some/or all of the various s7 roms (carrier &/or custom) can be looked up? I was considering using a custom rom but need to pick something that will flash with the firmware I have now and work with T-Mobile network. Ideally I would rather use stock carrier rom, since I'm really just a noob trying to use a Sprint phone on T-Mobile network. I really dont want another failed flash and to have to waste more time setting my phone back up with the partial functionality it has now. I'll wait if necessary but I wanted to ask about the bootloader priority and to see if anyone had any other suggestions. Thanks!

Sorry for the question is this new bootloader locked or unlocked. if it is unlocked you can flash a custom bootloader and with that you can flash any rom you like.

Hi. I just joined T-Mobile from Sprint. I entered the APN settings recommended on the tmobile help site, which only worked for about 5 minutes. After calling customer service, I was directed to create another APN profile, basically identical to the one I had originally done, without deleting the first one. After saving and selecting the new profile, go to Settings>General Management>Reset>Reset Network Settings. Push the button to make it so then power cycle. Mine has worked ever since. Of course that was only Monday but still. The tech said that the majority of the time it works although he could not explain why. I talked my wife through the same procedure on her S7 Edge and on hers mms doesn't work. Don't know why.
