Each code has a function. You can "do" what the functions permit. I'm not going to break down every code. Someone else can take that time if they want. Try the codes out and test yourself. If you see something you are unsure of.. don't mess with it. But every code is safe as long as you don't click thru and hit "yes" to some of them.
The hidden menu works on my bell optimus G by changing
3845#*970#
to
3845#*973#
Will any of these show me the lifetime call time?

If not you can use the SWITCHIT - 4G LTE TOGGLE app (available in the app store). That's what I used when my original Sprint LGOG had issues staying connected to 4G. I would force it.

Yes, I used this method as well. However after the OTA update ls970-ZVC, the method is blocked?
Any ideas?

Really. I'll have to try it myself. I've updated but haven't used the app yet since updating. Not sure if there are dialer codes to accomplish the same thing.
But you know, for me at least, the update improved radio performance. I'm even able to get a steady (3 bars) 4G connection indoors at work when I wasn't able to before.
Code to find SPC
For those of you who want to find your SPC without having to download any programs, just enter this code.
##443336772#
I know I didn't have to enter my SPC to enter the $$DIAG$ code, but now that I updated to ZVC I must enter it. Here is a simple way for you to find your code.
will any of these help me fix the encryption problem the soft-bricked LG optimus G e970s have? (says PW not working even though i'm sure it's the right one). Phone is encrypted won't let me get in.

so like alot of the other tthreads, i wont bore you with details on how a toddler managed to turn on the screen lock and enter the same code twice and lock me out of my phone, question is, i heard there is software that can "break" thru the passcode, or read the passcode so i can either disable it, or find out what it is,enter it and disable it.
i was told SN-RMS will do it but:a. its carrier only, b. nothing in the product manual mentions anything about this being a feature or ability
will QPST or CDMA workshop work for this? a hard reset is really not an option, since i was a moron and didnt backup my stuff. any suggestions?
TL;DR : What software can get into a phone while the security lock screen is on to either disable lock screen, or read passcode so I can disable it. TIA
This has been discussed before and due to security of the rest of our phones I dont think you are going to get any help on this topic.. If I were you I would go to your closest sprint store and see if they can help you. Good luck!

Yo guys! Got a question, Ive seen maybe one or two threads concerning this, but they tend to be a bit older, figured Id bring up the issue again and see If I could get another answer.
So I modified my 4g / 3g settings using ##data, my msl code and the tweaks found here, and I basically want to restore my entire phone to default. I know you can do a 'factory reset' by going through the menu, but does that also revert those settings back to normal?
If not, is there another type of reset i can do using ## codes, that completely hard resets the phone, including those 3g / 4g settings?

Pretty sure it doesn't reset those. It's easy to go in manually and do it though!
I bought unlock service on eBay for $7.99 month ago now it is 8.99. A guy from UK had me install few pieces of software on my computer and plug my T999 to USB so he could connect online and run his software. These are his instructions and that means that there is a way to unlock our T999 without a unlock code just by running his software. This has been available for last 2 months but no one wants to publish that software yet.
Preparations needed before the unlock - on your PC
Step 1: Download and install usb redirector from the next link:

Step 2: I will connect to your pc using team viewer. Please download team viewer from this link:
http://www.teamviewer.com/download/TeamViewer_Setup_en.exe
(How to install Team Viewer? Please see attached pdf with screenshot example)
Install it (select Install, not Run), and tick "Show advanced settings”, then when you get at "Use Team viewer VNP", then select that to. After is installed, open it, keep it open and send me the id and password.

LOL Everyone knows that. If you have account with T-mobile and your phone's IMEI is registered on their network you can request unlock right away or if it's a new account after 40 days. You can send other new request every 90 days for different IMEIs. Unfortunately this is not what this tread is about.
This is per line so the more phone lines you have on your T mobile account the more SIM unlocks you can request at the same time. If you know someone else who has Tmobile account you need to put his/her SIM in your phone for just few seconds (yes I tested it many times) then wait 3 days to show up in their system and then request unlock.
I would advise people against this, but you may do so at your own risk. The person connecting to your computer over TeamViewer has complete access over your machine and can even prevent you from seeing your screen or moving your mouse or entering input from your keyboard. You can disable certain features in the settings, but do make sure you know the potential risks involved in letting someone access your machine. I'm not saying that the OP isn't legit, because I do not know that for sure, but just a word of caution to those considering this.

Z3box is an actual box that you use. Unless he rerouted the com port of the USB that way he could access it from his device. But yeah I don't trust letting a stranger connect to my computer.

This has been done using the Z3x tool, and it needs the same instructions as in the first post (1.Enter *#7284# tap: QualomUSSB Settings - Select: DM + Modem + ADB 2.Settings - Developer options - checked: USB Debugging).
So this is probably how he does this.

Really nice when people are talking about me If you ever need my service can find me on ebay onlineunlock or on my website onlineunlocks.com . By the way do not need to worry about the fact that would take over your pc using teamviewer, the person you connect to using teamviewer can see everything you do, and can just stop connection anytime if it does not like what you do

I've tried several of these as well in the network section and the test section and they don't work

Here is a link to a similar thread on our (TMobile) side by Joederp.
Just be careful because some of these codes will work on SGH-I747 (ATT SGS3) but not on SGH-T999 (TMo SGS3), yes on N-7000 (Note1) but not on SCH-I535 (VZW SGS3). Then there are the Sammy codes that work on all variants.
With the good there is the bad too. There are some very real dangers of punching in the wrong codes i.e. wiping your Internal SD, Soft/Hard Brick, anything really. And some survive boot and some do not, so there is that too.
I had a report about this thread and wanted to make sure that the above was known.

I think a lot of those are for the international version. Also don't forget to use the stock dialer. And you have yo be on a touch wiz ROM.
I have a domestic GS3 and the codes I tried work fine.

A whole bunch of these codes do not work for me either. I have an i747m running 4.1.1 stock.
If I recall correctly, more codes worked on 4.0.4.
Does anyone have any thoughts as to why this is happening?

Thanks for the feedback. Guess I'll try a touchwhiz rom. My phone wont connect to any computer any longer. Charges without issue but not data. Was hoping to use some of the USB codes to try and fix it.
Just throwing this out there, I'm not sure most the codes will work unless you are on a stock rom ... at least in my experiance. In the past [for my captivate and skyrocket] i noticed when I changed roms [cappy i ran synergy, skyrocket ran cm9] only one or two codes would work.
i didn't try any codes prior to switching my s3 to cm10 ... but i can't get any to work on my s3 now ...

Could be a corrupted driver or a bad cable. Start by trying to update the driver first and then see if a new stock s3 cable will work.

I am getting connection problem or invalid mmi code
So I have been doing some extensive research on unlocking methods for the LG G2. I think I am close to something but I have hit a wall. I need someone to test something for me to confirm if it's me or sprint.
Please in your dialer insert this : ##4433386368#
Then go to FW and tap the OMA-DM.
Can you guys see this menu?
Or does it crash?
Please post your results let's get this thing unlocked!
Please only post if you haven't called sprint to unlock yet.
Has anyone tried this yet?
I just tried it. It said unfortunately service program has stopped.
I think that is for MSL, I an on Custom ROM and can't check dialer codes with out flashing back to stock.

OK so it looks like something is keeping us from entering these settings. This OMA-DM menu is what HTC one users used to unlock the HTC one. Also what sprint uses to unlock the device themselves. THis is what manages OTA updates.
Edit: If anyone finds a way to get into this OMA-DM menu, or know how to edit it, please post here, would be much appreciated.
Can anyone tell me what the Sprint LG G2 equivalent for this is? This is how they unlocked the HTC ONE for international use and I am trying to see if it might work with the LG G2 also.

Not yet, it's either Sprint blocking us from the menu, or something else, whoever is rooted, can they tell me if they find an apk called vdmc.apk or vDM.apk on their device?

Ok SO I figured out that the vmdc.apk in the LG G2 is actually called Update Device. Now to find a way to edit that so we can unlock this baby!
Done a lot of work in trying to get close to unlocking it, using a lot of the Terminal emulator, I was wondering if anyone has gotten their G2 unlocked by sprint yet and explain me how the process went.

Hi there, i too have a Sprint G2 that needs the sim unlock. For all i know, if Sprint make the unlock on their server, all you have to do is to go to System Updates menu and select the UICC Unlock
Hope you can find a solution for us, finger crossed.

Yeah I am trying to find what value they change, or if they add a value, when they update it, all the strings for phone unlock are all here on the phone, I just have not come around to finding a trigger yet.

If anyone has some insight on how Sprint Unlocks their phones, I'd be grateful. I feel close, but still so far

Another interesting find is that in the service programming via qpst, the user data profile is locked and cannot be changed. And the phone does not have built in EPST function.
Well....

Interesting... Although sprint doesn't use unlock codes. (not that familiar with EPST and what it does, quick searched)

I've decompiled most of the apks that have something to do with OMADM and Sim Unlocks, Havent Found anything other than a "DmcTestSimLockTestMenu" option on the hidden Menus, now when I open that, I get the menu and there are three Options:
1 Set DB for Normal mode
2 Set DB for Test mode
3 Check timetable
Now both of those first options do nothing towards SIM unlocking, so I'm not sure where to go from here, but if anyone has some insight into this, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Also, could anyone that has actually gone to sprint and asked them for the unlock, and got it granted, tell me what happened, how it happened, and if you've tested it to work.
Thank you

Yes there is a ICC menu in LG's Hidden Menu APK, but nothing there is editable(at least from the menu itself), just shows the ICC info.

I would think Sprint only allow OTA edit of the ICC value so to change the SIM lock status.
If we can find the way to edit the value of the ICC then it should be done. Need to find which physical address the menu pulls data from?
Yup, that would solve it, I don't know if it's allowed, but I have decompiled the apk, am I allowed to post that part of the code here so you can take a look at it?
