[Q] Any other way to bypass activation screen. [Solve] - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a big problem on my HTC Droid Incredible.
Bypassing the activation screen really irritates me and i can't turn on the USB Debugging which is the key to root and s-off my phone and to bypass the activation screen.
The procedure i did for bypassing the activation screen are: tap 4 corners, safe mode, call *228 and end call after few seconds (did this several times), cdma workshop, ##778 change the nam setting, and non of them works for me.
cmlusco member of xda told me that the best way to bypass it is to change the build.prop in any rom i'm going to flash on my phone. Then he give me this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1306400 and i think this is it, but in the end still failed because i need to turn on my USB Debugging.
Please help me to bypass my Droid Incredible.
I'm here in Philippines and there is no Verizon network provider here.
I already solve this problem and I can use my Droid Incredible. Sweet!!!View the 3rd post how did i do that.

are you able to fix this?im having EXACTLY the same problem.

yup I already fix it, just follow this procedure.
1) try to enable usb debugging mode by doing this procedures.
for this,you should need wi-fi.
so,let's start
1)when the phone calls to *228 tap contacts icon,right to the "end call"
2)try to add a new contact and enter facebook or other socialnet dialog.
phone asks you to enable wifi, do this and connect your wifi network
3)next hold the search button and (via voice search) search in google "market"
4)tap to the official market page, phone asks you about opening this page,choose market app.login in the google accounts,if you need.
5)search in market "usb debug" app. install it and tap "open' in the market app
6)enable usb debugging and enjoy)
and for those who don't have a wifi connection in there home, this procedure is for you.
1. call *228 and tap the contact on the right side of end call.
2. add contact and put any information.
3. try to connect it in facebook to prompt the setting window.
4. tap setting.
5. tap search softkey and type application.
6. finally you can enable usb debugging without any problem.
thanks to ramazancik94 for giving this life saver step for enabling usb debugging mode.
2) root and s-off your phone by following this procedure root 2.3.4,downgrade,and s-off
3) if you already have CWM, rooted, and s-off your phone try to install some ROM using CWM in development section. Double check if your phone is s-off via hboot (press and hold power button and volume down), your phone is rooted if you install CWM, and find some ROM that suits your need.
4) Try to use the "end call bypass" if this method doesn't work with you this will be your last resort. Delete the phone.apk before you install the rom, to delete the phone.apk open the "blah blah blah rom.zip" and go to data> system app> find phone.apk and please don't extract the rom and delete the phone.apk or i won't work, just delete it from the zip.
Note: Deleting the phone.apk will result for disable your phone signal. So you're going to use your phone for music, game, watch some movies and wifi internet. You won't be able to use it for call, text and mobile data, and also please read it carefully so you won't **** your phone. You've been warned

You cant just click on the adb.exe file, it is a cmd line program. Open a cmd prompt on your pc and type " cd C:\mini-adb_inc " then type in your adb command, example " adb devices " this should show the serial number of your phone if connected to the pc and adb and drivers are setup correctly.

thnx for the reply
but this " cd C:\mini-adb_inc " seems to be invalid when im trying to enter n the command prompt window
i already tried removing those that i downloaded and download them again but still the same thing...
---------- Post added at 02:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 AM ----------
also inside of mini-adb extracted on my c drive theres no adb.exe.it just say's adb
under that is AdbWinApi....so cunfused now

What makes you think the cd command didnt work, did it give an error? All cd does is change the directory to C:\mini-adb_inc where the adb file is located. It is ok if it says just adb and not adb.exe, your pc is just set to hide extensions. When you first open the cmd prompt to the left of where you type it will say something like C:\users\your_user_name\desktop >, when you type cd C:\mini-adb_inc it should go to the next line, and to the left of where you type now it should say C:\mini-adb_inc >Then type adb devices and see if a serial number comes up.

"C:\users\your_user_name\desktop" his is what i exactly saw on my laptop and when i tried enterring "c:\mini-adb_inc" a message appears say's like "incorrect path/directory"
im gonna try using another PC and hope this time it works..

You have to type " cd C:\mini-adb_inc " or what ever the path is to the adb file. here actually try this. Go to the folder where the adb file you unziped is. Then hold ctrl + shift and right click on an empty space in that folder, and select open cmd prompt here. then type in your adb command, ie adb devices.

Sorry to say, but if you cant enter hboot, or boot up to the os or recovery, then the phone is more thsn likley bricked. Unless its a battery issue. Does it vibrate at all when trying to start?

Does it boot when plugged in? There MAY be some help if it can boot when connected to AC power.

I've experience this, just a blinking orange led. What did I do was i charge it and a couple of minute the the blinking orange led stops and it become a steady orange led.

Easier way (offline)
Found what could be an easier way, I'm playing with my sister's incredible and I can get usb debugging enabled by using any of the official verizon update packages (could be a rom, but I downloaded the smallest hboot upgrade from htcdev), it appears to send some commands in usb mode that trigger the activation of usb debugging, what's funny if that if you either disconnect before it's done, or it fails, it leaves usb debugging on.
Non-sense.
EDIT: You just have to open the utility, you don't to flash or disconnect.

Such and old thread but I have a Incredible that a friend gives me and I couldn't access the market app by search function. What I did was search anything with voice commands, then a navigator window opens and change the URL to: market://details?id=usb, it opens the market app and I can install the USB debug app

Simple method, without the use of USB Debudding/rooting flashing:
Go to Emergency dialer,
Enter ##778, and press 'call'
Select 'Edit Mode'.
Password is: 000000
Select 'NAM Settings'
Make the following changes:
MDN = your 10 digit phone# (0000000000)*
MIN1 = your 7 digit phone# (0000000)
MIN2 = the area code of your phone# (000)
Press the 'back' key and go to 'HOME SID/Home NID' settings
Select 'Home SID/NID #1', and change the first value to '189' (Leave the 65535 alone).
Now press your 'menu' key
Press 'commit modifications' "button"
Phone Should reboot now.
Changing MDN using cdmaDevTerm
In some phones MDN cannot be changed, in this case you need to connect the phone to the computer as a "modem" device, and use the opensource cdmaworkshoptool / cdmaDevTerm from here:
http://code.google.com/p/cdmaworkshoptool/
Connect the tool, select manually / automatically the COMPORT for your HTC device, Read from device, Change the MDN to 0000000000 Select write
Disconnect and reboot your device.
It should now by pass the activation.

[Q] How do I uninstall HTC Sync from my incredible?

I have the correct drive installed but I dont want to go on rooting my phone until i take care of this.
please make it simple
You have to uninstall it from your computer. The phone's internal storage has the exe file, which you can pull to install it on your computer.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
And I never did, so suffice to say its not on my computer?
it is stored on your phone under /etc/cdrom.iso you have to be rooted to remove it from your phone, there is another option, let me look it up
Dial ##7764726
Hit Call
Type Password 000000
Hit Feature Settings
Choose CD ROM
Click Disable
Hit menu, commit modifications (it will say no item changed)
that doesnt delete htcsync, it just disables it from starting up when you connect to your pc via usb

LG Setup Wizard

I am looking for help. I am a noob and I rooted my phone and it all went well. I froze apps that others had frozen. I tried to be very cautious but I froze LGSetupWizard with titanium backup and then did a hard reset. My phone now starts up with the setup wizard and when it gets to the end it states that the application (process com.android.LGSetupWizard) stopped unexpectedly then it loops back to the beggining. I have actually been able to access my email and the net from the notification dropdown. I am lost as what to do. Is my phone bricked? Is it possible to simply put the application back into the phone somehow? I have access to the files that I froze through titanium back up on my computer as they were on the sd card. I would really appreciate any help
Can't you just skip out of the wizard before it gets to the end? Or choose to not go through it at all?
Try the factory reset and see if that helps... Just guessing though ?
How
The start-up wizard started automatically after the reset. I have tried to get out of it but when I "exit" it brings up the same error message. I read a post on another phone where you could opt out of it by pushing a few buttons in a certain sequence but it did not work. How would I do a factory reset as is? Any ideas? Thank You!!
Can you get debug mode running (possibly by connecting to your computer, selecting the computer usb connection, and then long holding the line in notification center or something)? If so, you might be able to push the backed up .apk with adb and get it reinstalled.
Explanation
I really apprecitate your post. I am sorry I am a noob and I am not sure what you mean by "long holding the line in notification center". I will download ADB and research how to use it. Thank You!!
If you can make adb working, then you can use 'adb uninstall' the TB, or use 'adb shell' login to phone, su, then delete TB app or data
TB?
Thank you for your post, what is TB?
I must be a real idiot. I found out after the fact that if you select any other option than PC software on the USB connection mode it disables debugging mode. I have ADB but it is not recognizing the phone because it is not in debugging mode. Is there any other way to activate debugging mode besides Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB debugging?
Please Help!
TB means TitaniumBackup.
Another way to enter adb:
If you have cwm recovery installed, pls continue see following steps:
1. Enter CWM Recovery mode.
2. Then connect your phone to computer
3. enter "adb devices"
D:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb devices
List of devices attached
LGOxxxxxxxxx recovery
If you see above, then good, enter "adb shell" to login to your phone.
enter "id" to make sure you are root.
then:
cd /data/app
ls -l *Titanium*
#you should see something like com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup.apk
#then enter:
mv com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup*.apk TitaniumBackup.abc
Above cmd will make the app executable file invalid extension, which should disable the TB app. (I didn't try, but I guess it should disable the app)
HTH,
xordos
CWM Recovery
I don't have CWM recovery, I tried to research it and I could not find the LG nitro in the list for clockwork mod, should I use one of the optimus models? I rooted with superoneclick. If I froze the file in TB would uninstalling TB unfreeze it? I have actuall been able to use mail, messaging, and the phone when someone else calls or emails me and I have been able to access settings for each of these specific areas but I have not been able to access settings for the debugging.
Thank You!!
USB debugging on how do I push the files?
I have ADB running and I am in debugging mode. I still have root. How and where would I push the file onto the device.
Thank you!!
Resolved
My issue has been resolved. Thanks for the help!
problem fixed
hello .
If you still have the problem with the lg phone , there is a very easyyyyyy solution .
I had the same problem ; i deleted Lg home because i was using go launcher home , then one day i just moved go launcher on the sd card . That was the problem , i hard reset my phone 20 time , but still in the end of the reset process i was receving that error , the process stoped .
Ok , once you have reached the error " setup wizard process stop " , press the close button . Than press the 3d menu button . You will go into 3d menu , there click 3d games and accesories . Launch the game asphat 3d. The game will be installed . After you launch the game , there is a small button in the game , in the top left corner , similar with an earth , named info . Click that button , than click the twiter button . Now you will launch the internet browser and you problem it's fixed. Once the internet it's opened , go to google com , and search for any launcher . By example seach go launcher , find it , download it , install it . When you want to install it a windows asking about some security settings will open . It;s the settings menu of the phone . Here you can can allow to install application that dosen't come from play store , or you can just enable usb debuging ( and of course with usb debuggin enabled ,you can easly update or downgrade your phone using the lg official software ) .
Good luck .
hey man, how did you fix this problem? i have the same deal right now. thanks
gave up. flashed kdz

Put a space after AT like "AT +" and not "AT+". Rest should be written as above..
I recently found a problem while doing method 1
"This command is not allowed in user build"
So the solution for that is:-
When we are writing
AT+EGMR = 1,7,”IMEI_code”
we have to give a space b/w AT and +
so final command will be like this
AT +EGMR=1,7,"IMEI_code"
Hit thanks if it worked for u

It worked perfectly on Lenovo tab 2 a8-50lc, couldn't click thank you button though, its greyed out.

Mi A2 Lite Bluetooth Audio Problems? Back To Oreo?

Hi There,
Just bought my GF a Mi A2 Lite a few weeks ago and she is loving it compared to her old iPhone 5s but one major issue atm is that her bluetooth headphones seem to be giving her issues!
The audio stutters a LOT even when right next to the phone. Tried resetting the Bluetooth connection but to no avail.
I had a quick scan through the forums and seen that people recommend going back to Oreo to solve the issues.
Is there any clear guides or links on how to do this? I know my way around tech so should have any issues following a guide.
Thanks in advance!
Yes, it's a very annoying bug.... I have it too, but didn't find a solution
That's the reason why I downgraded to Oreo!
If you want to downgrade,
1. you must unlock the bootloader, but this will erase all of your data. So, don't forget to make a backup of your internal storage. https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/guide-how-to-unlock-bootloader-official-t3885578
2. Install MiFlash and ADB on your computer: https://www.xiaomiflash.com/download/ https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
3. Download an oreo stock rom and unzip it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/fastboot-xiaomi-mi-a2-fastboot-images-t3824871
4. Boot your phone into bootloader
-> Connect your phone with your computer and enable ADB in developer settings
-> Shutdown your phone and hold Volume Down and Power-Button to boot your phone into fastboot/bootloader
5. Open the MiFlash-Tool on your computer and select the Oreo-Stock-Rom which you want to install.
6. At the bottom of the MiFlash window you must choose clean all, this will erase all of your data!
7. If your phone gets recognized from your computer and the programm, then you can hit the button flash on the top of the window
8. This procedure takes a while, so be patient.
9. If everything works, it will reboot your phone automatically.
10. Maybe you will have the bug of swapped SIMs. You must install TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/development/official-twrp-daisy-t3855396
and flash this file to fix it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4704476&stc=1&d=1550012435
11. Perfect! You downgraded to Oreo!
I hope this little guide could help you, and sorry if it's a bit complicated
If it's any consolation, I had this issue on Oreo and Pie!
I'm now upgrading to a Pixel 3a, but keeping this phone for development. Might try porting Ubuntu Touch some time. ?

If so, it was a problem with every one I tried!
I tried on a generic Bluetooth speaker, two different generations of Echo Dot, and on a current gen regular Echo.
It is channels problem. Bluetooth and WiFi are on 2.4GHz. Some frequencies are busy and it stutters. Turn off WiFi and Bluetooth. Turn Bluetooth on and connect your Bluetooth device. Wait 10 seconds and turn on WiFi. After this WiFi will avoid frequency where is Bluetooth device and use free frequencies.

You can solve by adding the the missing codecs, all the routes are still there, xiaomi removed licensed codecs
Downgrade helped as of 30.05.2019
Mi A2 lite
Bought Galaxy Buds. Stuttered and eventually lost connection.
NOTE:What comes ahead is my personal experience (with some software errors that doesnt seem to have effect on our goal) downgrading my MI A2 lite to Oreo.
Downloaded Android Oreo 9.6.11 , ADB and Fastboot, Miflash(latest from site) from links in the beginning of the thread.
Very few proper video tutorials (Indian mostlyXD).
Enabled developer options on my phone (tapping 7 times on build number). In developer options enabled allow OEM unlock and turned on usb debug mode.
Turned off phone and launched it it fastboot mode (hold "volume down" and power button simultaneously). Connect phone to PC via usb.
Open folder on PC where you installed ADB and fastboot software. Launch cmd.exe or smth. In black window type "fastboot oem unlock" Enter. The phone reboots (takes a lot of time dont be alert) and wipes data from your phone. You will see a scary message/warning (disappear s after few sec) that asks you to lock bootloader back.
NOTE: somehow my device did not ask for any confirmations for enabling unlocked bootloader.
NOTE 2: I was trying to do this whole process by video and text guides. Some ppl type commands in cmd "fastboot flashing unlock" and then "fastboot flashing unlock_critical" BUT for some reason this commands did nothing. So all I did is oem unlock command.
After OEM unlock command rebooted phone skip all phone setups and open developer mode again (if it is locked) and in dev options check if "allow oem unlock" and usb debug mode is turned on. Turn off your phone and load it in fastboot mode (volume down+power).
On PC unpack Android Oreo files. It should look like a long name folder with some .bat files and folder (avoid unpacking in place with strange name paths).
Launch MiFlash tool. NOTE: it gave me a prompt for installing drivers and after i pressed it gave an error. It is fixed by creating inside MiFlash tool folder a new folder and naming it "log". Then launch the tool again and press install drivers.
Once you are in MiFlash program there is a ling space where you can insert a file path. You need to copy a file path that leads to your unpacked Android Oreo files (the path should lead inside where the .bat files located). Paste this copied path into MiFlash path bar and press refresh button. If there is no error you can proceed by pressing in the bottom right corner a "clear all" option and in the top right "flash" button. This will install Android Oreo on your mi a2 lite.
After the process is done i had an error in MiFlash program BUT the phone reboots on its own with downgraded Android version. Turn the phone off, load it in fastboot mode, connect via usb and run in ADB folder CMD.exe and run "fastboot oem lock" command. The phone reboots, takes a while.
!!!
After it reboots immediately skip all phone setup menus especially wifi and account options and go straight in settings to unlock developer mode. In developer options TURN OFF AUTOMATIC SYSTEM UPDATES! After it you can finish phone setup process ,accounts, networks and everything else.
An Android message "update available" can pop up. To get rid of it for good simply swipe it slowly A BIT (not all the way) till you see a cog sign (options icon) and there turn of this notification.
Now you can go smoke a cigar. Android 8.1.0 Oreo installed AND it wont update automaticlly to PIE. You can use your bluetooth devices properly (or whatever problems you had).
Have a nice day. Gonna probably go buy Samsung A30. This **** is unacceptable. Pie update rolled out long time ago (Android Q is releasing in 3 months from now) and this stuff is still not fixed. Wtf
Solution
I did a simple step to fix pair
Reboot into safe mode, pair the select device, after pair reboot out the safe mode and you see the device paired.
Cheers

Download "Setttings database editor" by 4a. Open it up and click on Global properties, scroll down until you see "tether_dun_required". Change the value to zero. You now have internet via hotspot. It's best to buy the add on because it keeps the setting locked even if you restart phone. Enjoy?

Oh my bad i left out the most important part.
1. Install adb on your laptop (search it up)
2.On your phone go to settings, general, about phone, software info, find build number section and keep tapping until you are a developer
3. Go back to general and you'll now see developer options, turn developer options on and go down to usb debugging and turn it on.
4. Connect your phone to your laptop via USB (you will get a promt on your phone along the lines of "allow USB debugging?", click ok) and open up command terminal
5. Type "adb" and press enter
6. Type the command (without quotes) "adb devices". Your device should show up.
7. Type "adb shell" and press enter
8. Open up the settings database editor and go to global and scroll down to tether_dun_required. Click "edit value" and the shell command should pop up.
Type the shell command into adb shell and press enter
9. Go to the settings data base editor and go back to the tether_dun_required and click on change value. You'll notice that you are now able to change the value, change it to 0.
10. Enjoy your hotspot!
It seems like a lot of steps but it's not. The most "difficult" task will be installing adb.
Awesome. Got it to work now. Do you have to set it to 1 for the Ota updates or after each reset? Thanks again!
No, theres no need to set it back to "1". After you shut off your phone the setting value will turn back to a "1" and you hotspot wont work until you switch it back to "0". To save time you can buy the feature pack and you'll get access to settings guardian which will keep it at "0" at all times.
