Programming menus

Hey everyone. I'm one of the unfortunate ones with 3G data issues (thunderbolt wont connect to data at all).
Tried everything I could (battery+sim pull, factory restore, etc.)
Just wanted to list down all the programming/testing menus for all to have access to. A word of advise though, if you don't know what the option is, don't touch it. Some of them make sense. So this is just a place to put them all on the same post and make it easier for all to find:
1. Dial ##PROGRAM (Password is: 000000)
2. Dial *#*#4636#*#* (No password)
3. Dial ##778 (Password is: 000000)
Keep in mind *228 does NOT work on this phone, since it's SIM activated. If anyone knows of any other hidden menus, let me know, I'll edit the original post.

Network Sim Unlock i5801

I bought my phone outright not on contract so i figure it should be unlocked but seems it isn't.. If i was to call Telus in Canada here would they give me the unlock code for free or would they charge me???
Edit: Well it actually worked and i just used "This Video" on instructions to do it.. It just left a few things out or at least made it harder to see on the video
1. In order to edit the Credits from 1 to 11, you need to enable a setting. Hit F11 in fiddler or click on "Rules" then "Automatic Breakpoints" and enable "Before Requests" otherwise when you run the samsung app it'll just tell you it doesn't have enough credits.
2. Another thing to remember when doing this is now whenever the "Client" Line pops up in Fiddler your going to need to manually tell the program to progress using these little Yellow and Green buttons.. if you don't the Samsung Unlock app won't do anything and it will seem like it froze.. It hasn't its just waiting for you to tell Fiddler to move to the next step..
3. And one more is to make sure before bothering to unlock to make sure your SIM doesn't have a password on it.. I noticed it causing the network unlock to reset whenever i rebooted.

ffcloud2000 i suggest to remove [Q] and question marks from title cos this works.
i did it today on my SG3 i5800 and i can confirm.
it took a while till i got it right and then i saw some instructions below video posted by some guy:
FIGURED IT OUT!!!!!
The only problem I had is with changing credits from 1 to 11.
This is done as follows:
1. enter user name and password and click [Connect]
2. Switch to Fiddler and select the line having word "client" at the end
3. Click Yellow button to see the text
(NOTE: most people miss clicking the yellow button first, which will open the text for editing)
4. Go to credits and type "11"
5. Click the Green button
6. repeat the steps whenever having line "client"
to clarify:
after you hit [connect] you go to fiddler and find line that has word "client" in it. mark that line and hit YELLOW button on the right side. then you change that credit to 11 and then you hit GREEN button. you ll notice that SRS holds when you hit yellow button and continues after green. also when you change those credits from 1 to 11 you ll notice that on SRS it is also changed to 11. wait a bit and you ll get codes.
i tried those 2 links above and those methods didn't work for me. couldn't find code.

I unlock today two Galaxy i5800, mine and my girlfriend's phone.
The first I take about 1,5h or 2h to understand what I have to do, the second phone take about only 2 minutes
It is really easy, but you need to know what have to do before.
PD: So to unlock insert another SIM with a different company (SIM without PIN code!), when ask for a code insert de NCK code that you read with the software.

I need help with this. Can't go through with it.

What are you having a problem with?

I have Galaxy 3 i5800. Tried following steps in the video from the first post. I get "Invalid procedure call or argument" error in the end, in the SRS program.
I even cannot get enough times(as shown in the video) of that Client2010 line in Fiddler. That guy in video gets that line like 2 times more than me, but in my case it just stops showing, after I've clicked "Run to Completion" on the last client2010 line.
Edit: I will write down here the steps I take and what happens.
---------- Post added at 05:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 AM ----------
I am not able to post links yet but here is a screenshot of my steps:
i.imgur.com/VVwUG.png
And then I get that "Invalid procedure call or argument" error in SRS.

Try running the Programs with Administrator.. I ran into errors also but i'm on Windows 8 so it might have been my issue

I did run everything as administrator.
I have read on SRS website that for SRS to work you have to run it on 32 bit computer. I just installed 32 bit windows and didn't work, everything is the same.

Try using Compatibility mode.. change it to a different version of windows and retest

Just tried. Didn't work.
Tell me, in which state exactly the phone must be when doing this. And which exactly sim card has to be inside? I didn't yet try without a sim card.

I just had mine plugged into my computer like normal like i do to charge it.. You have to remember to change some settings on your phone though and change them back after you finish
Code:
1. Go to Menu - Settings - Applications - Development -> USB Debugging
2. Type *#7284#, select USB > Modem
3. Type *#9090# and click on usb_diag

Did that. Except for *#9090# part because my phone doesn't show usb_diag but I read somewhere that if it doesn't, it doesn't matter
Damn... I'll just buy the code for unlocking xD.. I'll wait few more days, see if it works out somehow

{Help}MSL Codes for Virgin Mobile Optimus Slider

Hello i just recently got a new Optimus V Slider from Virgin. I have tried everything i know possible to get the MSL code out of this thing to no avail. I have tried the method that is used with the Reg Optimus V using CDMA Workshop and no matter what driver is used the workshop will not connect ot the com. I have also tried using getprop ril.MSL, all i get from that is a blank line.
Can someone please Help me get my MSL code.

Still trying to solve this issue

Just call tech support. Tell them you are a developer and need the code. If it doesn't work call back and get someone else.

This method works for the Motorola Triumph on VM, might be worth a try here.
1) Download aLogcat from the Market.
2) Press Menu and choose "Filter." Type in "SEC_CODE" without the quote marks.
3) Press Home. Go to your dialer and enter ##33284#.
4) You'll be prompted for your MSL. Enter 000000.
5) Now go back to aLogcat and the six-digit number showing after SEC_CODE: is your MSL.

download alogcat 2.3 from market and follow those directions but instead of putting a filter just scroll up and you should see D/SpecialCharSequenceMgr( 304): MSL=000000

Hi, I'm trying this now, but it's hard to find it in all of this information logcat is outputting. is there a filter that i could set?
-edit-
just looked through the whole thing again after a reeboot(the log was shorter) and there's no instance of " D/SpecialCharSequenceMgr"

MSL code for Virgin Mobile LG Optimus Slider

Just typing in MSL in the filter doesn't do squat. Ive tried it on my fiance's phone for the last two days and have got nothing.
Methods I've tried:
1. MSL Reader.apk- This was no-fu-go
2. Logcat.apk - Still havent seen anything pertinent on this app
3. Alogcat.apk - Havent seen any msl numbers or spc numbers.
4. Tried the usual 000000 when entering the MSL. - No-Fu-Go.
Tomorrow I am going to barage Virgin Mobile with phone calls and try to get the MSL for the phone and see how things go. I'm very doubtful they will give it up easily but I'll give it a try and let you all know how it goes. If anybody has any advice let me know please. I would greatly appreciate it and wouldnt mind donating beer money etc for a method that works. Lol. Any help greatly appreciated with this dumb smart phone lol.
[EDIT] I called Virgin Mobile and talked with Supervisors and their supervisors. They WILL NOT give out MSL codes for phones. You may have to contact the manufacturer of the phone in order to get the MSL for the phone. That's what they suggested to me. LOL! Virgin Mobile sucks ass!

For what it is worth, you can get the MSL pretty easily, but it requires using a tool to read the phone while in diagnostic mode like CDMA Workshop

Make sure your ROM is a TouchWiz ROM. The hidden menu doesn't work on AOSP if I remember correctly.

Looks like the procedure has changed with OTA 4.3/4.4. Dug around a little and found out that the hidden menus can be enabled by changing the /efs/carrier/HiddenMenu contents from:
OFF
to:
ON
After that dialing *#0808# gets you to the USBSettings Menu.

Good find

Since none of the *# codes work on Verizon anymore to get me into the Qualcomm USB Settings, I found and used ##366633# in 4.4, toggle DM on and then back off to get it to show back up properly.
I didn't want to root my phone to mess with any files to get the hidden menu to work.

Mi Mix 2S on Visible (Verizon MVNO)

Has anyone managed to get this phone successfully working on the Visible network? It works on Verizon, so there should be no technical reason why it won't work on Visible as they are literally owned by Verizon. I activated my wife's iPhone SE and it works great for her. Stuck that active SIM in my phone and couldn't get it working for the life of me. I found the APNs to add, but I could never get the phone to let me add them.
If anyone has any tips I would greatly appreciate it!

What's the issue with the phone not letting you add the APN? Do you get any error messages or something?

I'm not sure what the issue is, when I put the Visible SIM in the phone and then view the APNs under the SIM card settings, I try to add one and the only option that isn't greyed out is the "APN" box. I can't enter anything in any of the other fields.

This seems to be a stupid google/verizon issue. Anyway, try this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pi...llular-apn-t3697425/post75157321#post75157321
I am not sure if it will work on android 9/10/MIUI, it should. If it doesn't work, let me know and we can take it from there.

So I ended up finding a user who'd created an app in order to manually add APNs to MIUI devices. That allowed me to manually add the APNs I needed to my phone. But even after installing the Visible app and signing in, then rebooting several times, even going into the phone information screen and trying to force provisioning and manually enable VoLTE I had no luck. For some reason this carrier just doesn't seem to be compatible with this device which is a real bummer.
