Help...in Completing the Kraiser Effect!!!

Hey everyone first of all i would like to thank all of you for all the amazing info. you guys really helped me with unlocking the phone took me almost the hole day as was getting errors but now that's set......the help i need is in firstly answering certain questions .......
1).....Is it true that if I flash my Rom again I dont have to worry about it getting locked again.
2).....When BootLoader Mode shows SPL-1.0 OliPof means I am ready to flash any Rom right? Or should I go through CID unlock.
3).....If I flash my Tilt with an HTC Rom will I still see all those ATT Logo and 3G Splash screen and will I have all those useless ATT software.
4).....If something does go wrong or I dont like the new Rom can I flash back; the reason I ask is because some said that you couldnt. Are there a lot of issues using an OFFICIAL HTC ROM... or have they all been fixed.
5).....Has the Keyboard Issue been fixed yet for the HTC Rom or not.
Thanks,

any answers!!!! anyone

I answered this over in Q+ A, This is why it is against the forum rules to post in multiple forums.

Thanks and sorry!!!

How do I root this thing (Arc S)

Yea sorry, I know there are tons of threads on rooting this stupid thing but I've been trying out so many different ways today and failed that I'm sick of and tired of this stupid piece of crap.
This is my brother's phone, and it's run out of internal memory (seriously 300 mb?), anyway he has like 10 apps installed on the internal memory, these plus all the updates have filled it up. So now I'm trying to root it so I can swap the SD cards (already got him a 32 gig microSD for that).
And oh boy am I sick of this thing, so far I've tried multiple options and none work, and some are too complicated with poor instructions for me to figure out.
Rooting my Galaxy W was so easy and this thing here just makes me hate everything.
Stuff I've tried:
Sony Xperia Flasher
ERoot
Flash tool
bootloader
I'm at the end of my wits here, completely frustrated and yea, if this where my phone I would have already smashed it with a hammer.
I really don't have time for this sh*t since I have to study for a big test, so I would appreciate something super simple and fast, like with the Galaxy W.
Again, sorry for sounding like a **** and creating yet another thread, but I'm desperate.
Thanks for any help.

dial *#*#7378423#*#* on your phone then go to service info then to configuration & at the bottom what does it say regarding your bootloader ?

if you need help send me PM & i will reply back in this thread. take care

If you want you can unlock the bootloader (loosing your warranty, of course), and then install a newer version of android up to 4.2.2, which is much more smoother than 2.3.4 and has much more features...

Madness, if you can't figure it out you're either not reading enough or just being lazy. There's about 4 or 5 links in my guide with how to root, add to that the amount of other threads there is, starting a new one means your lazy, because you've read nothing whilst signing up and just want to be spoon fed. Luck for you, there's some willing to do it.

Rooting Tools
you can root using doomlord root script.
I have rooted several times after flashing few roms and the script works great.
Hope this helps..

Had you taken a look at my join date and post count you may have noticed how I did not sign up to be spoon fed to root this device. And had you read my post you may have noticed how I stated that I've already rooted the Galaxy W, which is my phone, which was also real easy and straight forward.
I signed up to be able to hit the thanks button for Sir Arco's CM10 ROM, and give feedback should I notice bugs or other problems with it.
All I wanted was to root it without flashing a new ROM, since all my brother wants is more space on his phone, I don't think he'll want to check the forums constantly to check if there's a new version of a ROM out so he can flash it, so unlocking the bootloader and flashing a new ROM would be pretty pointless.

you can try to use the doomlord process, but you will always install a new rom, in that case will upgrade de phone to 4.0.3 and then you will be able to root the phone with de .bat file inside :good:

But you still clearly hadn't read anything whilst signing up, otherwise you wouldn't have started a new thread on something as common as "how do I root". I assume you will have managed it by now?

I did, which is why I apologized for posting another thread like it, there where also no I do I root this in this forum, since apparently I'm the only one who had trouble with the options that are posted in the guide threads.
And no, the doom script did not work, it did say it was successful but the phone remained unrooted. So after a couple more tries (and rectifying the "drivers out of date" error message) I unlocked the bootloader, tried again a couple of times still to no effect. So I want ahead and flashed a new ROM and Kernel. At first my brother wasn't too happy about that but he's starting to like the new ROM.
Man, it was easier flashing android onto the bloody HP Touchpad than this phone.

Flashing s3 to boost issues

I have had consistent issues flashing this s3 sprint to boost mobile.
My main two questions are where is the general knowledge you guys have about qpst , qpxt, dfs and cdma workshop coming from ?
I mean there are 10 + guides on the sprint s3 to boost BUT all the guides to not explain a thing. Neither do any other guides for other flashes. The are only explicit directions. Which I have followed and consistently get errors no matter the variable that I change ( different roms mainly ).
I have searched the internet from morning to night trying to find answers and it seems this giant ball of knowledge about these programs is either hidden or not there for some odd reason.
Either way I can post up screen shots of the errors if that would help.
Or does someone know 100 % of a current working guide?
Any help will be much appreciated as I agreed to flash a phone after only rooting 4-5 phones and being very knowledgable of that area assuming from all the threads on how to flash phones interpreting them as a "doable" task but this is some deep stuff.

I retract my statement about being able to post screen shots as I do not have the required 10 posts yet. I am not that knowledgeable about quite a few things on this site so looking to learn a lot.
I am assuming I can still send a link to the screenshot via PM for anyone feeling crazy enough to help. :good:

99428813
And now after trying flash a few different roms I am getting a new error in dfs - get sec code cds error. That is after sending what has previously worked as the spc. Does the spc change ? I would presume it doesn't.

This should steer you in the right direction.

Thank you for the post! I did try that one. My phone at this moment will not let me get passed the put your password/spc in portion of the guide.
I actually purchased the Galaxttoboost.com guide and it worked well on the incognito side but the galaxy side it failed.

You have to downgrade your rom for the old password to work. I forget how far you have to downgrade, maybe 4.1.1? I don't remember but that is what you have to do. I am also not sure if there are any implications if you have knox in your bootloader. There might be, read up on that.

LIF_update_FULL_Odex (4.1.1).zip (
Per the galaxytoboost.com guide this is the needed rom to access msl info and is whats currently downloaded. They did specify another rom to use with QXDM that I just noticed. Is that normal?
And I just found out that under baseband version ( where the label for what bootloader I have ) it says unknown.....

The new rom yielded the same results. No msl via the get my msl app or no response via getprop ril.MSL in terminal. Same response in QXDM as well. When I put in password and the correct 01f..... password for the 4.1.1 it displays the error - RequestItem - Error response received from target.
What would make my phone completely unresponsive to these programs????

[Q] How to access diag mode

Forgive me if this is a dumb question but I cannot find the answer anywhere on the internet that actually works. I'm trying to put my Samsung galaxy Note II (GT-N7100) into diag mode
##3424# doesn't work
I am able to bring up a menu by typing *#7284# but that doesn't have the options i'm looking for.
I believe I am using a custom rom as I have rooted it (not even sure which custom rom i used, i got it from here and was the first one i found )
I did read some places that the ##3424# method stops working after flashing with custom rom so was wondering if there was another way of getting into it or do i have to factory reset my device and flash with stock firmware in order to be able to access the mode again?
Any help will be much appreciated :angel:

You could broaden your possible help by also adding why you need this "diag mode".

Well, honestly, I need to modify my IMEI (didn't want to say it in my original post for obvious reasons, but you asked so I'm answering).
I am already aware of the risks and legal implications but still want to go ahead

Then nobody here can help you.
Plus you cant modify with a simple app/menu on device anyway. You need external hardware.

Have unlock code, still says invalid sim

hi everybody
Friend of mine gave me this phone with the unlock code.
The phone keeps going to the hands-free activation screen ( which fails of course because it's either got no sim or a T-Mobile SIM in there)
Someone said it said enter double hashtag and then the msl code followed by hashtag
That just takes me to a screen where I can enter the "NAM info" T-Mobile's nearly worthless support told me to put my phone number into both the mdn and msid fields. Obviously this didn't work.
I tried the double hashtags 72786 hashtag to reset the radios, no joy. But before it should no signal at all any of the time where is now it does seem to have a connection to Sprint.
I found other sites that said that I need to enter the UICC unlock code, tapping that option or update PRL or pretty much anything else on that settings screen, just kicks open the hands-free activation screen again, before I did the step above to reset the radio I kept getting a 407 error.
Something that's probably complicating this whole process is that this phone did have a custom ROM on it and still has TWRP on it. The custom rom was wiped and I grabbed the Android 6.0 debloated stock ROM from on here and installed that to get this thing unlocked.
I'm open to trying custom roms but I need one that's going to be as stable as stock.
I would appreciate any help you guys could provide I've wasted probably about six hours on Google already. I got a lot of what appears to be pretty low-level information off of the hands-free activation menu though I've posted those photos.

One thing I find curious as you can see in one of the images that says that the Linux version is 4.0.4. But the ROM is definitely a 6.0. I'm an IT guy but I'm pretty novice when it comes to cell phones, is this something to do with the kernal?
I've been trying to download Dr ketan mod but while there's instructions for the p varient, there's no ROM download for the P version of the note 4 on his site.

I can't really help you but I can give you some info.
For 1, to unlock it correctly, you should be on stock firmware. You use Odin for that. There are plenty threads here that explain how.
2. Even if you do go stock. I've seen multiple people that can't unlock this phone, even with sprint help. It's like they don't care.
But yes, I've always heard what unlocks the phone is the uicc unlock code. But good luck getting it or getting it to work.
3. I wasted a week trying to figure out unlocking my phone. Not because of $, just wanted to try to figure it out. But i said, F#&k it. And paid Idone apps to unlock mine. Worked flawless!
Good luck!
As far as roms. There are plenty that work great.

Looks like I broke the second half for the quote mechanism, sorry when u load up Odin, will it find the stock round that's supposed to be on this phone? Cuz I got what I thought was a closest to it.
The phone still has trwp recovery on it tho, and it knows it's custom.
I got the msl code, seems to work. My fear is that the problem is on the phone and not the carrier end.
How would a non stock ROM impact this process assuming that everything was kosher on the carrier end?

I don't understand. Does your phone work with service? Did it ever have service? If it had service and now it don't, then you did something.
All i meant. Is if your trying to unlock your phone. It's best from stock.
