I've installed Lineage on my phone and I'm a Sprint customer. If anyone has the unlocked XT1710-01 variant, it would be GREAT if you'd send me a copy of SprintDM.apk.
Or if anyone knows another workaround for 3rd party ROMs and Sprint please let me know.
It appears most people are GSM users.
Thanks in advance!
Did you ever get this working?

Hi Guys I'm working on a Project for a Client. He has some galaxy G960F/G965F and they are branded with a carrier Telstra Air and we would like a STOCK Rom to flash on phones to remove all traces of that Carrier info. Not looking for custom Rooted Rom, because he would like to be able to update the phones when a new software update comes out.
I have tried everything with NO Luck, and I'm sure one of your developers know how to do this. Please contact me private message if you already have this or would like to create it for me PLEASE, I will compensate$$$ you for your time. contact me so we can talk on skype or whatsapp. This is a Urgent Matter your Appreciation is More Than Welcome thank you!!!
PS Admin please advice me if its ok to post this thread thank you

What firmware are you on as far as I know tesltra air is just an app to automatically connect to free wi-fi on Telstra networks.
Are the phones network locked ie: can you put in another Sim from a different carrier like Optus or Vodafone.
What have you actually tried to do
what about this ?
G960FXXU2CSC8
(search on google and download it via sammobile , there is no bloatware and you can get the updates without a problem (with that one most of the time y get the security patch faster but you may loose some features)
or that G960FXXS3CSD2 it may take a few days more to get the update (based on my usage)

No the network is open I tried another sim from the USA: Tmobile, ATT, Verizon and Metropcs. Im on G960FXXU2CSC8 firmware version and I just upgrade to G960FOXM3CSD1.
Ok fellas I figured it out I follow the instructions from this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...de-how-to-change-s9-s9-csc-model-csc-t3870836
and I was able to change the CSC to OXM then I flash a rom from United Arab Emirates and all carrier info was gone and phone works perfect. Special thanks to those guys from the thread it really works!! Thank you Thank you guys and for all who replied and where willing to help. If anyone need help with this same situation contact me I can help
Hi XDA members,
im new to this and just wanted confirmation from more experienced users. I have a LG G7 sprint variant which was recently remote unlocked via ebay to an unlocked firmware which prevents me from using it on sprint or any cdma mvno.
I contacted the seller about reverting the changes but he says its impossible. He used something called LG Octopus tool.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I think flashing the sprint firmware will fix the issue. Since it is not available for download, you have to take it to sprint ( one user experienced the same issue with sprint G7 https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg...-bootloader-root-models-t3928505/post79658233 ). btw am not using sprint variant.
i have a rooted S9 and thinking about to use Sprint provider in US
is that possible.....without any FW flashing.?
thx for help

if its rooted, its not a sprint device as none of the us market phones can be rooted. short answer is that you cant, even if you did flash firmware. I bet you have a 960F model which is gsm only and sprint uses cdma still for regular voice and text
I am planning to take a AT&T locked SM-G986U to Cricket. My question is simple. How do I update the firmware?
My current LG G8 refuses to update and my understanding is I need an active AT&T simcard.
However, I found this: https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/g...M-G986U1/ATT/download/G986U1UEU1DUB7/1491717/
I found out that SM-G986U1 firmware should work on SM-G986U.
Will that above firmware work on my incoming SM-G986U? Will it allow VoLTE? Has anyone tried this?
I need VoLTE on Cricket and I know the AT&T firmware allows for that. But the above firmware is for the U1 not the U(should be cross-compatible) and says it's the AT&T version.
Can anyone please confirm this? Thank you so much for any and all help, advice, or suggestions.
If anyone can or wants to try or test this I'd love to know the results.
yes it will work and you get updates from samsung
So using that above would get me VoLTE? WiFi Calling would be nice but I need VoLTE. Just still a bit confused, thanks for your answer and help.
i get both but i have a att phone on att and running the u1 firmware
Ok, yeah mine is an AT&T model and I'm not sure it'll arrive up to date. We'll have to wait and see. thanks!
Hello,
I will try to keep this short and sweet.
I am on US Mobile using the black sim (verizon towers) and currently have a LG v30 that no longer can make calls due to Verizon shutting down cdma beginning of 2023.
I have my brothers Lg G8 ThinQ phone purchased from US Cellular. It is now rooted and I followed this guide to add LTE support for other carriers:
[GUIDE] [NO ROOT REQUIRED] [EPIC UPDATE] How to add VoLTE support for other carriers to the G8 (and other Qualcomm powered LG devices too!)
This guide will not work if you are running Android 12 :( I'm gonna keep the intro simple, been a longtime user here on XDA, and recently I found that my T-Mobile LG G8 only supported VoLTE and VoWifi on, you guessed it, T-Mobile! So I did some...
forum.xda-developers.com
I used the mbn files provided from the guide and loaded a few of the US carriers. Upon putting in the sim, and trying to change settings to get it to work, I can only get data to work but texting/calling (in/our) does not work at all. When attempting to make a call, the 4G indicator also disapears. I contacted US Mobile thinking it maybe was a APN issue but they stated on their end that the phone is incompatible.
Not sure what else to try. My only hunch is maybe reloading mbn files from a downloaded KDZ but I have no clue if that will work (also to download 5 gigabytes takes a few days for me).
Any help is greatly appreciated.
attached is both the phone info and a snapshot of PDC of it showing VZN got activated on the phone with the sim in it.
EDIT:
For if anyone else comes across this. My solution was to crossflash (using the guide in the LG G8 fourms) the open market KDZ and I went with G820QM30c_00_NAO_US_OP_0103.kdz as I had android 11 already installed and that it was the A11 version download the most from here: https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-lmg820qm-firmwares/
I did have to correct my FTM partition but that crossflashing guide links to some good solutions.
*Note: Only issues that I have seen with the version i flashed is i cant add an APN. The button is just missing so had to install an app to view it, and when receiving gifs, they turn into pictures only. both things I can live without as not volte works on verizon (us mobile).
So, which rom would normally work with that carrier? I'd guess the us open version would work, why not just flash that on the G8? I've no idea what bands us cellular rom supports, but I'd trust the correct rom (for the current carrier) to work rather than following that thread to 'add bands'.
I used that thread once, didn't accomplish what I wanted. Not to say it doesn't work, I didn't try that long. But have flashed numerous roms re diff carriers, that always does what it should re correct bands.
Frankly, I am not sure if my reply will be helpful, and I know nothing about the US Mobile specifically, but just wanted to comment as an owner of a G8 originally from the US Cellular. Feel free to ignore this if it seems irrelevant...
I bought my phone second-hand with an original US Cellular A11 stock ROM. Later cross-flashed it to the Canadian Open when A12 became available. Rooted with Magisk. I am using the phone on the Rogers network in Canada. On both ROMs I have no issues with data, voice and text - everything works, including concurrent voice calls and data usage.
A (possibly) dumb question - have you tried the original US Cellular ROM as is, before diving into the guide to add LTE support for other carriers? Is there a chance that it would just work?
Regarding the previous reply, I couldn't find a US Open ROM available for the 820UM models (only for QM), but you could try Canadian Open, for example. My point is to try and make it work with one of the ROMs as is, without messing with some extra steps that may or may not work.

Yeah, I guess i understood that as being able to add the functionality. But after more research, flashing a different rom is more likely to be the solution, which confuses me about adding profiles if it doesn't truly work?

So yeah, after more research, looks like flashing either the open market or the verizon specific variant would work. I did try it first without any modifications to the us cellular rom but still not everything worked. I have a Lg v30, but few things that are no longer ideal was the recent CDMA discontinuation from verizon at the start of this year, also had recently dropped it and the screen flashes bright white light in your eyes at random times... so lol, not ideal.
What Im probably going to be trying when I get the time is flashing the open market, and if that dosent work, it seems the verizon specific would.
Thanks both for the inputs!
