Fujitsu F-01F- Fake Cellular Connection To Update Software? - General Questions and Answers

How to fake a connected cellular network?
I have a Japanese carrier SIM-locked smartphone Fujitsu F-01F. The system software update is blocked since there is no carrier network connected.
I want to tamper this so it can let me download the OTA update. Do you guys know what is the component/service on the Android OS which the updating software use to get the current cellular network. If I know about that I can give it a try.
Summon @tewilove. Can you give an advice on this?

Generally it requires kernel exploit, bypassing kernel restrictions, then hook TelephonyService.
And you will need valid DCM phone number and IMSI to fake while hooking.

Is there any known exploit for 4.2.2? And IMSI, this thing is kinda new to me
btw: are you working on UpAny any more?

Any progress on this? I've tried UpAny on my F-01F but it doesn't work. It installs and starts, so I can select "Software Update" or "Upgrade Android software". But when I push "Next" button, it shows "Launching..." message for a second and that's all! No system updater started. If I manually launch system update, it says "Unable to start upgrading in an area where docomo signal is unreachable or during roaming even when Wi-Fi connection is enabled."

Is it possible to include F-01F support into your app? I could do beta tests on my phone. And could donate to you if you need.

Hi , I've 2 pcs of Fujitsu F-01f 4.2.2 and I need to find a way to update the phones to 4.42 outside Japan , my current location is in Singapore. Can anyone help me ?

May be you are not forced to download and flash a ROM according to your region but just download and flash the CSC according to yours.
It is as useful as you can get the newest version of Android without worrying about the provider (except for the provider like AT&T, T-Mobile and others, please do not take them).
Or look this thread

Your phone likely reset because you have a pin on the lock screen. Ten failures means it factory resets. They updated the lock screen now to avoid that.
Hi,
Thanks, for the tips...
The cell phone is working fine in GSM network, without problems.
I'd like to update to kitkat 4.4.3 (or upper), please, you know the link to download the OTA file and how install?
Thanks,
Daniel
If you want to update it without problems you will have to get software thru htc sync on pc.
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using XDA Free mobile app
Go to HTC website and download their Sync program. Connect your phone on USB and give it a few minutes. It should update.

Docomo SC-01F (SIM Free) unlocked "Mobile Network not available"

Hello Guys, at first thank for all people for this forum, helpe us a lot. First time posting here.
I bought a Docomo Galaxy Note 3 SC-01F, then I wnet to Docomo Shop to unlock the SIM, the unlock worked well. I put by Odin the International rom to use the phone in my language and used in Brazil with the local SIM operator, all things worked well. So now I returned to Japan, and took a AU KDDI SIM in AU shop. The seller put the SIM, and configured the data transfer(OK) but the call number failed(Mobile Network not Available), he tried at least 3 hour. So I went to my house and tried by odin put the original docomo firmware, but the result is the same, the network data is ok, but call function return the same error. In the place of antena signal show a circle look like prohibit.
I tried other firmwares more recents provided buy this site, no result.
The IMEI is the same in the back of device.
Put the Access Point data provided by AU seller.
Tried to search the network, just show docomo and softbank, sometimes show the AU, but I try to connect give failed.
Try to automatic, failed.
I dont know what can I do more. Please anyone have some idea?
The problem is I cant connect to AU KDDI provider to make calls "Mobile Network NOT Available".

The company name is AU KDDI of Japan. When I bought the SIM, the seller gave to me these data to configure after I flash rom by odin. Because the seller did not got success in international ROM.
I did a flash by Odin the original firmware from the original company(Docomo) and put the data provided by the seller.

no problem, we are here to help.
im sure the problem is the phone, since sims, networks andphones are very different the all have some conectivity issue when you unlock it, my best advice is go to the and see if they can help you if not then try rooting it and flashing a custom rom for the phone and im sure that will help you most of the time

Well after the root you must check if device is bootloader unlock if so look for a method to unlock it, then flasha custom recovery and flash a custom rom.
Well is basically a firmware with a bucnh of customization, tweaks and mods, it also lets you use your phone software as yours not as the company whants you to use it. There you can use customs roms from other phones that are compatible( ported roms) and try them it can include fixes or be more compatible with the network

I understood and studying about it.
The first step i got it: ROOT THE ANDROID 5.0
I used the method below, and checked if success in "root checker" and other app, its OK.

https://androidmtk.com/root-samsung-galaxy-note-3-docomo-sc-01f-on-5-0
The second step I cant do it: Bootloader check
The guides in internet say this: *#*#7378423#*#*, but in my phone I cant use the dial, show "Mobile Network Not Available"
Any other Idea or tutorial to follow? I saw other methods but cant understand.
My objective is: Try to put the firmware of my sim card owner(AU KDDI), to see if I can use the Dial.
Thank you very much

Need help with SM-G920A

Hi,
I am using samsung Galaxy S6 ATT version with the following software version:
Android Version 6.0.1
Android Security Patch September 1,2016
Baseband Version G920AUCS5DPI1
Build number MMB29K.G920AUCS5DPI1
The phone is sim unlocked but I need help with rooting / unlocking the bootloader. On checking this forum I did not see that there is any way to do this on my version. So I was just wondering if there is anything else (such as installing any other ROM) that I can do with this phone.
Since the contract on my phone has expired I tried using this phone with another carrier and it does not seem to be working (tried with metroPCS) the phone does not show any other network operators except ATT/T-mobile and Verizon and on trying to connect to T-mobile it fails to connect (metro PCS uses T-mobile line)
After spending few hours with an account rep from metro he felt the phone may not be compatible. So at this point I am just trying to figure out if there is anything I can do with this device.
Sorry for the long winded post but I just hate how these carriers tell you that after the contract you own the device but their own software updates mess up any chance of using your own device as you want.
Appreciate any insight or links to help me figure out if anything can be down to get rid of the ATT rom.
Thanks,
Matt

What can I do with a SM-S515DL Tracfone device?

Hello everyone, I've been looking for some information about this Galaxy a51 (which I think it's a US version and I'm outside US) with the following features:
Model number: SM-S515DL
Android Version: 11
One UI version: 3.1
Baseband version: S515DLUDU8CUK1
Kernel version: 4.14.113-22754548
Service provider software version: SAOMC_SM-S515DL_TFN_TFV_RR_0015 TFV/TFV/TFN
Software update info version: S515DLUDU8CUK1 / S515DLTFN8CUK1 / S515DLUDU8CUK1
Security patch level: October 1, 2021
I got it from Amazon and it says it's a CDMA device, of course it is network locked and it's showing the invalid SIM card message. So I got a couple of questions hoping you can share your comments:
1. Is it possible to do a stock firmware flash and get rid of carrier content and locked SIM?
2. Can I use galaxy firmware.com files to do so? I see there is a S515DLUDU8CUK1 version with different region, if so which region to pick?
3. or maybe is it possible to do it by installing a custom ROM?
4. Could the z3x or octoplus unlock network? (I can't get the unlocking PIN or region screen)
There are still a lot of things to learn, unfortunately I saw there is not much info for this model on forum sections. I found mostly information for A515F and other variants of a51, could I just use them? is there any risk? Beyond the unlocking network I'd really like to try a custom rom and get rid of all the stuff it comes with.
Greetings!
Yeah, eveything should be possible, but you must change you language manually after setup, when you flash a different Firmware from another country or another region. If you flash a new Firmware you also should be able to unlock your bootloader and then you habe the Go for flashing every Rom you want. With a different Rom or Firmware you should be able to get rid of Carrier content etc.
Okay so far I've been using it as an offline device and it is just fine. I am waiting for SamKey to release the network unlock since it only supports binary 3 and below. I dunno which other software supports binary 8. My bootloader is locked it does not show up at developer options.
Anyway I am just playing games on it, watching videos and surfing the net with wifi. Just like they say if it's not broken don't fix it. I will just wait until this device gets more support and then I'd probably try roms and other stuff.

Not sure if it will get much support being from 2019. I'm not an expert with Androids but bought same models from Tracfone and with 60 days after activation they were eligible for unlock. They took IMEIs and sent email with two codes in it (different based on IMEI because for two of my devices they were different). after punching number it brought up the device unlock menu and after the two codes were entered got messages that they're unlocked. worked with different sim without an issue afterwards. Its currently up to Android 12 UI 4.1 as far as official updates.
