Kyocera DuraXT e4277 DIAG Mode?? - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi,
How do I get into the diag mode of this phone? I googled and googled until I could search no more!!
I tried ##diag# and some other codes but none is giving me the option.
I need to be able to connect the phone to the PC and see it in DFS, CDMA, QPST. None of these see the phone usb port now.
Please help. Thank you!
Sprint Kyocera DuraXT E4277

Well, I figured it out!
After all this headache of looking for the DIAG menu on the DuraXT.. It turns out that its not needed.. all I had to do is install the drivers on PC and connect USB cable.. Select Modem on phone and DFS was able to read it.
Now I am another problem.. I need the 16 digit device password and the only thing I see on google is that its all F's (FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF) but that is not correct.

Does anyone know how to find the SPC/MSL for the DuraXT E4277? The memory is unreadable, completely locked from reading.

Unfortunately Kyocera phones do not use 16 digit passwords, only Samsungs do. If you're trying to repair the esn/imei or unlock it, don't even waste your time, there are no specialized tools available for those tasks, other than reading the user lock, nam, etc via DFS/CWS or other similar cdma tools. But you'll probably need the SPC/MSL which may be gotten from Sprint by pretending that you need the code to factory reset it through the ##786# menu. Kyocera phones have always had elusive security, including full memory lock. Just chalk it up as a "No Can Do"

CDMA???!!!

I've googled for hours for this. I am looking to get the MSL/'unlock code'/SPC for my CDMA blueangel. I have not found the answer anywhere. Does anyone have any pointers for me in unlocking an HTC CDMA phone?
Any help will be SO greatly appreciated.
You can use this app (you need to run the 2003 version of the .exe). It will take your ESN HEX as input (use capital letters) and will produce your MSL (not OTKSL). This app works for all HTC CDMA phones--Harrier (CDMA Blue Angel), Apache, and Titan).
It was created by a guy named isosdcftp over at ppcgeeks.com. Here is a link to the thread in case you're interested (primarily concerns the titan/mogul though):
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=5531
Also keep in mind some carriers use 000000 for the MSL. If neither that nor the code produced by GetSPC work, then perhaps the particular carrier who sold your phone used their own MSL algorithm (possible but unlikely).
doesnt work.. I'm with telecom new zealand if that's any help
Can you be more specific? Does the app run and produce an invalid MSL or can you not even get the app to run? If you want to PM me with your ESN HEX I will generate it on my end and PM it back to you to confirm.
I have a Sprint-branded Harrier (I'm in the US) and GetSPC spit out the correct MSL for me, but maybe TNZ programs in their own MSL instead of using the HTC default. In that case not much you can do unless you get the phone into DIAG mode and see if bitpim can read it.
Sorry man. It generates a MSL, but when I go into the pst (##778+talk) I enter it and it barks at me 'Your unlock code is not correct!'. I will pm you with my ESN.
And how would I put it into diag mode? I am fluent with bitpim and linux etc. but I can't figure out how to put it in diag mode.
If there's any more help from anyone it would be VERY greatly appreciated.

put the phone in diag mode ##DIAG send or ##3424 + send, then instal serial driver for the new hardware, you can google for the driver, then check the modem com port under modem in Device manager, and set the same com port for Bitpim using other CDMA phones, then check in NVM 000 or 001 and you should see the 6 digits SPC or once you know the virtual serial allocated to modem you may use other tools to check spc
Lets see how it goes,..
bR
doesn't work, when I go ##DIAG+talk it just calls the number.
please help to unlock my zte ev-do modern s/n 412823812444

PC can't recognize Epic as mass storage after prl update (attempt)

So, I tried to do the manual PRL update in this thread , but even after uninstalling QTSP my phone only charges.
I can enable mass storage on the phone, but it doesn't register in Windows. I've tried going into disk management too, but there's no drive to assign a letter to.
I'm running Win 7 x64.
Any help is appreciated.
PS I have the Samsung Modem and Ports showing up in device manager. I don't know if this is normal.
Try:
1.Changing USB cable/port
2.Rebooting the computer/phone
3. Reinstalling the Samsung USB drivers.
I actually did all those things Xobx. I should've mentioned that!

Did you set it back to PDA from modem once the flash was done?

I never actually DID the flash. That's the weird thing. I installed the software, got the files, and decided it wasn't worth the trouble. No idea what to do now......
EDIT: Did you ever flip USB back to PDA in the hidden menu? If not, do that first, because it's your problem!
Does USB work in Download Mode?
If not, you're probably facing the same USB bug I encountered when trying an update. Samsung's got some poorly-written software in their USB stack. I posted a possible solution here, but if that doesn't work, you're pretty screwed. If you're non-stock, flash back to all stock (recovery, kernel, ROM) and go exchange your defective device.

Okay, I hate to plead ignorance, but what "hidden menu" are we talking about?
I'm running Midnight Rom 5.2 journaling off, btw.
thanks!
In the manual prl update thread it gives you a code to enter into the dialer to change it to modem mode for connecting to qpst. Verify both settings say PDA.
EDIT: The code is ##8778# in dialer. It should ask for MSL unless you changed it to 000000 in qpst like I did
If you don't have your msl, download terminal emulator from market and type this at the dollar sign prompt: "getprop ril.MSL"
Without the quotes, case-sensitive.
That six digit code is your MSL. Let me know what the settings show.

Need to access "efs" but qpst won't detect phone

I tried to ask about this in another thread but I'm going to try to be more clear on this one. I loaded my OG drivers in and put the phone in Debugging Mode and in Diag. Mode. Device manager detects 2 ports, one is for diagnostics. I then run QPST and it detects the connection but with a "?" in front of the phone description then when I open tab for connected phones its empty. I still try to open EFS and its a blank. Are there separate Diagnostics Drivers for this phone like HTC's and other phones or is the software blocking it from being read?

I tried to edit the title on my other thread but couldn't figure out how. Please remove this thread then and tell me how to change the title of my other one.
Or, someone please PM me with a solution.....Thanks :]
Unlock efs directories/files
Ok, I installed the latest version of QPST and now I am in the EFS of my LG OG but I can't seem to be able to figure out how to unlock the directories/files in order to edit them ( similar to using the "open sesame door" method on an HTC ). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Again, feel free to PM me or Email me at "[email protected]". Thanks.

[Q] Restoring IMEI i747 ATT

So I hope this thread isn't too useless. I've been researching how to restore my imei after losing 4g signal when my phone randomly (just sitting there on the desk, not touching it), decided to get stuck in a reboot loop.
Here's my specs:
Network: AT&T
ROM: CyanogenMod 11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-d2lte
Modem: UCUEMJB
Recovery: ClockworkMod 6.0.4.3
Device Model: SAMSUNG-SGH-I747
Product Code: Not Active
PDA Version:
Baseband Version: I747UCUEMJB
CSC Version:
Kernel Release: 3.4.104-cyanogenmod-g9f57632
Kernel Version: #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Nov 11 22:15:56 PST 2014
ROM Build: d2uc-user 4.3 JSS15J I747UCUEMJB release-keys
Android Version: 4.4.4
BusyBox Version: 1.22.1
SU Binary Version: 2.40:SUPERSU
So here's what I've learned. My IMEI was lost due to a weird Samsung backup procedure that backed up my /efs folder with essentially a blank copy of important information. I have my IMEI, but writing it to the phone is very difficult. From this tutorial I learned to download QPST, and somewhere else I heard about EFS Professional.
So I tried to use EFS Professional first, and have been able to connect my phone (Had to install adb first via the official android sdk). I was able to make a backup of my efs folder. I was also able to change the usb settings to DIAG + MODEM + ADB. Then I launched the Qualcomm NV Tools. From there, by unchecking "Send SPC" and "Read Phone" I was able to connect to the phone, but any other button I pressed didn't accomplish anything except disconnecting the phone again.
This is when I turned to QPST. I knew from EFS Professional which COM port my phone was using each time, and I added the COM ports to the QPST Configuration program for listening. But my phone was never listed as available in the ports tab, nor was it listed in my device manager under COM ports. I tried using the RF NV Item Manager anyway, entering in my IMEI "backwards" with an 8 in the first line and an "a" after the first real number in my IMEI, but my phone was never really connected, so of course nothing happened.
I learned this was probably because I have no IOTHiddenMenu / Qualcomm USB Settings Menu / whatever you want to call it with USSD codes, because I'm using an AOSP ROM (Cyanogenmod). This thread and this thread were useless in enabling DIAG mode, because of broken links and scripts that no longer work on newer versions of CM.
My next plan is to change ROMs to a TouchWiz ROM, but I haven't found a good one yet, especially considering I've upgraded my bootloader and I know that if I flash a ROM with a downgraded bootloader, I'll definitely brick my phone. So is there a ROM I can use with an upgraded bootloader that won't brick my phone and will allow me to enter DIAG mode so that I can connect to QPST via a COM Port, use the RF NV Item Manager, and put in my old IMEI? Or am I just going about this all wrong?
You do have to be on a TW ROM with a stock dialer for ussd codes to work. Based on everything you posted you should be on the mjb boot loader, but confirm that first. Enter this into a terminal or adb shell:
Code:
getprop ro.bootloader
If you are on an mjb bootloader, then this ROM should work for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47816011&postcount=18. It's a rooted deknoxed at&t stock mjb.
Good luck.
---------- Post added at 12:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:57 AM ----------
You probably already discovered this in your research, but just in case. When you get your imei problem solved, before flashing something other than a TW ROM, enter this in a terminal or adb shell:
Code:
su
reboot nvbackup
That will fix Samsung's whoops and give you a working efs backup partition instead of a blank one.
Thanks! I'll try this and get back.

You were right about the bootloader - when I looked up the ro.bootloader property, it spit back what I thought was my modem identifier, I747UCUEMJB - so yes, MJB. I'll get a chance to flash the new ROM tomorrow or the next day and see how it goes.
So, two steps forward and three steps back. I did install the new ROM. Initially, it appeared to work, because I was able to dial *#7284# to access the service mode menu and change UART to MODEM, and then dial *#0808# to access the USB Settings menu and change that to RMNET+DM+MODEM. After that, the phone showed up under COM5 in the Device Manager. I opened up QPST Configuration and added COM5 (labelled it "COM5") under ports. However, the phone never showed up (Phone column read "No Phone").
I then tried EFS Professional, but it was unable to detect the phone. I opened up the command line and tried an adb shell, but it didn't connect. Of course, the phone was in RMNET+DM+MODEM mode, not and ADB mode. I then went back into USB settings, changed it to DM+MODEM+ADB, and reconnected the phone. The phone wasn't detected by the computer, and hasn't been since.
I've restarted the phone and the computer multiple times (Windows 7 32 bit), uninstalled the phone drivers, reinstalled them in two different versions, uninstalled and reinstalled QPST (removing the relevant registry entries in between installs), and went through a number of combinations of settings on the phone. I tried with UART set to MODEM and PDA, with USB settings set to DM+MODEM+ADB, RMNET+DM+MODEM, MTP, and MTP+ADB. I made sure superuser was installed correctly and that developer mode was enabled. I still have not gotten the phone to charge in that USB port or show up in Device Manager in any way, even though the USB port on the computer still functions (can access flash drives from it). I plan to do some more googling and troubleshooting about this, but I haven't had the time to yet. On Wednesday I'll hopefully have a minute to try using my work laptop to access the phone. I think once I get the phone to be recognized via USB again I'll be able to have QPST Configuration recognize it, then I'll be able to use that RF NV Item Manager to enter in the new IMEI.
Also, in potentially unrelated news, my install of Titanium Backup is unable to recognize any apps I backed up, even ones that have been previously restored. It sees them in the backup folder (backup folder location says this folder contains 52 backups), but no apps wee listed in the backup/restore tab. Maybe this has something to do with the mount namespace separation setting in SuperSU? I'll test that later.
Some newer ROMs will install but not give you cell service without the newest bootloader and modem.
Try flashing the last release of CM11. I would not touch the bootloader, modem, or EFS folder until you try an older ROM.

Thanks for chiming in, but I don't understand how this applies. I was on CM11 when my IMEI was removed. When you lose your IMEI, the main symptom is that you can't connect to 4g anymore, and you're stuck on EDGE, which is what happened in my case. I can in fact make calls and send texts, and even load web pages without wifi. It's just slow and prone to call dropping.
As for your advice to install an older ROM, I just flashed a stock ROM, the one linked above. It didn't cause my current lack of USB connection, because I had a USB connection for a while until I changed the UART and USB settings.
I definitely will not touch the bootloader - I've been warned about the dangers of downgrading from an MJB bootloader. I'm not sure what you mean by not touching the modem, but I'm going to assume it's as scary/difficult as the bootloader, so I'll be sure to stay away from changing that too.
As far as not touching the EFS folder, as far as I see it, that's my only way out of this hole, because my end goal is to replace the IMEI that I randomly lost last week, and that's part of the EFS folder in some way that hasn't been explained to me (although I know it has to do with NV settings, maybe some file called nvdata.bin that I've never found, or the /EFS/IMEI folder?). So I think I have to ignore that bit of advice, unless you can give me a good reason to change my goal in all this.

I should note that I took a look at my EFS folder while writing this last post, and it's completely empty now. So that's fun.
I suggested flashing back to an older ROM because you made some changes since your original post.
I suggested not touching the bootloader, modem, and EFS because flashing an incompatible bootloader/modem combination can hard brick the phone.
Since your bootloader and modem match, I'm out of suggestions other than perhaps visiting a repair shop to have it fixed.

Thanks for the clarifications. I did visit a shop to see if they could fix it, and all I got were blank stares and people who don't want to deal with IMEI repairs. So back to my own attempts! I realized a couple days ago that my problem in connecting to the computer is that I've developed a crack on my phone's USB port. Also, I think my home desktop's messed up. So with a nice, sturdy cable I installed all the necessary program on my work laptop (Samsung Drivers, ADB, ES Professional, and QPST just for fun). I tried ES Professional first and by using the Qualcomm NV tools I was able to restore my IMEI! I rebooted the phone and now by dialing *#06# I see my IMEI followed by "/ 17".
So now onto the next problem: Still no 4g signal. Under Connections > More Networks > Mobile Networks, there are some errors. I only have one APN, named "ATT Phone" with an APN of "phone" and an MMSC of mmsc.mobile.att.net, and under network operator it simply says "Default Setup". Some research later, I realized this is a common problem, and I guess it has to do with my NV Data being messed up. Obviously, item 550 (0x226) is correct, which I was able to verify using a program called NV-items-reader-writer, but something else is screwed up. Peoplearmy has released a tool that can restore a backup up QCN file, which of course I don't have, so I'm in the process of seeking help from a generous soul who has an app that might help me. Apparently I could also use someone else's NV Items backup, replacing their IMEI with my own. But, I don't have one, so I'm stuck waiting on someone to be nice to me
I did try the method posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1808408&page=16
But it didn't work. This thread and this thread and this thread were helpful to me for research.

I got it! Problem solved!!
So what I realized after going back over those research threads quickly was that I was using Peoplearmy's QCN generator incorrectly. Here's how I fixed it.
1. Opened QPST, followed directions here to connect my phone and start up QPST Software Download.
2. Having already injected my IMEI, I used the backup tab to make a backup.
3. I opened Peoplearmy's SG3QCNGenerator and imported the QCN file that QPST just created. I left "inject IMEI" unchecked, since I already had my original IMEI. I clicked Save As to set the directory and name of the new file, and clicked the Verify IMEI button that appeared to verify that it was correct.
This was the step I had missed - because I never had a valid QCN file to import, I never was able to create a new QCN file. My error in thinking was that, since my current QCN file was obviously messed up, I couldn't use it to make a new QCN file, but that's the whole point of this software.
4. Once I had the new QCN file, I went back to QPST's Software Download program and used the Restore tab. The QCN file generated by Peoplearmy's tool didn't match my model number, but I approved it anyway. It restored the QCN file correctly, but it had an error when it tried to reset the phone.
5. I rebooted the phone manually, and I now have 4G signal!
So, to summarize the difficulties I had:
1. I didn't make an nvbackup before I flashed CM a year ago, and it didn't hurt me until now.
2. I lost my IMEI and couldn't restore it because 1) I was on CM, which stopped me from putting my phone in DM + MODEM + ADB mode and 2) The computer/cable I was using to work on my phone, for whatever reason, were being stupid.
3. I didn't understand that in order to fix my phone I needed to restore my IMEI and repair my nv items (.qcn file)
4. I didn't realize that I could use Peoplearmy's tool to take a messed up nv items qcn file, fix it, and restore it to my phone.
All the tools I ended up needing: Samsung Drivers, ADB, ES Professional, QPST, and Peoplearmy's SG3 Data Restorer. Hope this helps someone else out there.
:good: thanks for posting fix.

[GUIDE] Restoring IMEI and EFS after erasing or corrupting (No backup needed)

OOPS!
You were following guides on XDA, and throwing random commands in ADB from the posts under the guides (DON'T DO THIS!) and now your slick new ROG phone 2 doesn't have mobile data, calls, wifi, or bluetooth. You quickly find out that flashing the phone with any firmware old or new, doesn't help you, as this issue is directly linked to your chip in your phone.
I quickly found that I needed a QCN file from someone with a rog 2 phone, however I could not get any help here on XDA except from the user Greatuser123, who did not want to give out his QCN file (understandably), but did send me some notes to try and help with other tools.
With nothing working, and no QCN file, I ordered another ROG 2 and waited for it in the mail. After it got here, I quickly extracted the QCN file, replaced the IMEI's in it, and used QPST to restore my phone.
I am simply writing this guide with the generic QCN file with my info masked out of it, so no one has to go through what I went through.
Common issue
This most commonly happens with ROG 2 Phones from the commands:
DO NOT RUN THESE COMMANDS UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!
(spaced command to ensure no one runs this!)
fastboot erase modem st 1
fastboot erase modem st 2
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
On most phones, on a reboot, these partitions would be restored on reboot, but not on most ROG's.
Prerequisites
Rooted Phone
QPST
Qualcomm USB drivers
IMEI Converter
Platform Tools
The Fix
Follow the above root linked video, or find the root thread for your phone here on XDA, and root your phone. This will not work unless you are rooted, although I do not know how you would get into this mess without having your phone rooted already.
Install QPST tools
Install Qualcomm USB drivers
Download the attached zip "good_qcn.zip" and extract the .QCN file anywhere on your machine
Open the .QCN file with any Hex Editor (I used HxD) and search for the Hex-Values: 08 3A 85 99 99 99 99 99 99
NOTE: There will be TWO locations with this value. This is where your IMEI_1 and IMEI_2 will go. Your IMEI_2 goes into the FIRST occurrence, while your IMEI_1 goes in the second.
Download the IMEI Converter app and type in your IMEI_1 and click "Convert", place the converted hex output into a notepad or similar
Do the same for your IMEI_2 and place it in the same location
Now that you have the HEX version of both your IMEI's, paste your IMEI_2 in the FIRST occurrence of the fake IMEI in the QCN file
Paste your IMEI_1 in the last occurrence of the fake IMEI and now save your new .QCN file.
Ensure your device is in USB Debugging Mode.
Download and extract the Platform Tools if you do not have them already.
Plug your phone into your computer using either port
Navigate to your extracted Platform Tools and in a Command Line type "adb devices" to ensure your device is visible.
Run a shell with "adb shell" and elevate your permission with "su"
Now it is time to enable Diag mode by running "setprop sys.usb.config rndis,diag,adb"
At this time, if you installed the Qualcomm Drivers, your device manager should have a port similar to "Qualcomm HS-USB Diag". If not keeping trying to re-enter diag mode and ensure the drivers are correct.
Open up "QPST Configuration" which was installed earlier. You should see your phone listed under "Active Phones". Click "Start Clients" -> "Software Download"
The Port field of the QPST Software Download should list your phone, if not something is wrong.
Click "Restore", and in the xQCN field, click "Browse", change the file type from XQCN to QCN, and select your newly made QCN file
Click "Start", and once the process is done, restart your phone
Conclusion

Hi bro, Nice to meet you and I did my best to help you out, as I spent some stress on this when I was one of the first people that suffered with this issue. And gladly you solved it, bro you misunderstood badly about I did not want to give you the qcn, I was going to give you my qcn file but first I was asking to you for some proof , photo of same phone as me and the package to know that you are not going to change or edit badly ( doing mischievousness) as you never sent the proof I did not send the qcn file.. you can re check again your messages. Bro
Thank you very much for this, life saver.
My wifi and bluetooth works fine but I cannot get my mobile to power back on. When I go into the menu mobile power is just not there :/
Do you have the global or the cn version?

This QCN came from a global device, but I imagine this could be used to recover the mobile at least temporary to fully fix the device, no matter the origins.
Sorry for the delay.

No no, please do not think I meant you by that. It was other users (understandably) that questioned my motives before you. I absolutely would have taken you up on your offer if I did not already have the phone on the way Either way, I really appreciate your help during this, and I hope you continue to help other users the same way you did for me.

After a lot of heart ache and even making an EDL cable I could not get cell network back. I"ve sent it into ASUS to get fixed. I have made a few backups and will diff them when I get my device back so hopefully I can see what they have fixed so others don't have to experience this.

OOPS!
You were following guides on XDA, and throwing random commands in ADB from the posts under the guides (DON'T DO THIS!) and now your slick new ROG phone 2 doesn't have mobile data, calls, wifi, or bluetooth. You quickly find out that flashing the phone with any firmware old or new, doesn't help you, as this issue is directly linked to your chip in your phone.
I quickly found that I needed a QCN file from someone with a rog 2 phone, however I could not get any help here on XDA except from the user Greatuser123, who did not want to give out his QCN file (understandably), but did send me some notes to try and help with other tools.
With nothing working, and no QCN file, I ordered another ROG 2 and waited for it in the mail. After it got here, I quickly extracted the QCN file, replaced the IMEI's in it, and used QPST to restore my phone.
I am simply writing this guide with the generic QCN file with my info masked out of it, so no one has to go through what I went through.
Common issue
This most commonly happens with ROG 2 Phones from the commands:
DO NOT RUN THESE COMMANDS UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!
(spaced command to ensure no one runs this!)
On most phones, on a reboot, these partitions would be restored on reboot, but not on most ROG's.
Prerequisites
Rooted Phone
QPST
Qualcomm USB drivers
IMEI Converter
Platform Tools
The Fix
Follow the above root linked video, or find the root thread for your phone here on XDA, and root your phone. This will not work unless you are rooted, although I do not know how you would get into this mess without having your phone rooted already.
Install QPST tools
Install Qualcomm USB drivers
Download the attached zip "good_qcn.zip" and extract the .QCN file anywhere on your machine
Open the .QCN file with any Hex Editor (I used HxD) and search for the Hex-Values: 08 3A 85 99 99 99 99 99 99
NOTE: There will be TWO locations with this value. This is where your IMEI_1 and IMEI_2 will go. Your IMEI_2 goes into the FIRST occurrence, while your IMEI_1 goes in the second.
Download the IMEI Converter app and type in your IMEI_1 and click "Convert", place the converted hex output into a notepad or similar
Do the same for your IMEI_2 and place it in the same location
Now that you have the HEX version of both your IMEI's, paste your IMEI_2 in the FIRST occurrence of the fake IMEI in the QCN file
Paste your IMEI_1 in the last occurrence of the fake IMEI and now save your new .QCN file.
Ensure your device is in USB Debugging Mode.
Download and extract the Platform Tools if you do not have them already.
Plug your phone into your computer using either port
Navigate to your extracted Platform Tools and in a Command Line type "adb devices" to ensure your device is visible.
Run a shell with "adb shell" and elevate your permission with "su"
Now it is time to enable Diag mode by running "setprop sys.usb.config rndis,diag,adb"
At this time, if you installed the Qualcomm Drivers, your device manager should have a port similar to "Qualcomm HS-USB Diag". If not keeping trying to re-enter diag mode and ensure the drivers are correct.
Open up "QPST Configuration" which was installed earlier. You should see your phone listed under "Active Phones". Click "Start Clients" -> "Software Download"
The Port field of the QPST Software Download should list your phone, if not something is wrong.
Click "Restore", and in the xQCN field, click "Browse", change the file type from XQCN to QCN, and select your newly made QCN file
Click "Start", and once the process is done, restart your phone
Conclusion
If all went well, your phone should now have all its bells and whistles again. Sometimes it may require a Factory Reset, and this should always be the practice anyways. If you have mobile data, but only H+ or EDGE, dial *#*#4636#*#* on your phone and ensure LTE is provisioned.
Good luck guys!
