Because if we know what you're trying to do we can give better advice.
Unless what you're trying to do is technically against forum rules, of course

what was said above ^
but back to your question. Yes there is a diag mode available, but you need a bypass card in order to access it. this diag mode is normally meant for diagnosing faulty mainboards, and the such.
so basically yes there is a mode, but no your not going to be able to get access to it. cause the card itself is a unicorn, and there have been some home made cards but realistically if your trying to download / change the bands its nearly impossible. since the firmware's are so locked down.

it's avaliable on sprint m8 with this code ##3424# , so what's problem with t-mob m8?
i think there should be some adb commands at least, but i'm asking if there is some code for it , like it's on sprint version
It should be the same code for all devices, unless the carrier has disabled it

After Nougat update I'm continuously getting this message "Unfortunately, LG IMS has stopped" every 2 secs.
I have reset my phone but the problem still persists.
I also tried going into hidden menu / modem setting / and tried going into VOLTE / IMS but not able to do that since I keep on getting IMS has stopped error and not able to disable VOLTE.
Need a quick solution.
I have my SIM unlocked for other networks
Any help would be appreciated.
i am having this exact same issue and i see you also had your phone unlocked by asadnow2k so we no that there is some sort of issue with that type of unlock and android 7.0 i am confident that asadnow2k will fix the issue if it can be fixed
##RTN#
You can try dialing ##RTN#(requires your MSL) this will reset all settings and unlock will gone. After this you should unlock the phone again. Hope this helps! But not 100% shure.
any other ideas to solve this??
in case anyone was wondering doing the ##RTN# reset does get rid of the problem but then you are left without an unlock

Downgrade is not working for me
I used LGUP and tried all V3, V5 and V4 but nothing can be worked on LG up tool.. May be nouget can not be rolled back
Infact i bricked my phone but then i used LG mobile support application and restore my phone which is back and running on nouget again..
I bought a service for unlock from ebay but that person also can not unlock the phone on nouget so seems like now we have to wait untill GCPro guys comes with unlock

My phone was sim unlocked but after the update I keep getting com.android.phone has stopped, I dont have the msl code so is there a way to reset the settings without the msl?, ive tried ##72786# but it didn't work, if someone who has sprint is willing to help me out that would be great. Thanks in advance
Any other solution
So downgrade not working as confirmed by ppanf.
Can't reset MSL code since that would mean sim lock and as of now there is no unlock on nougat.
Any other hack guys???

MSL can be retrieved by anyone who has GCPro or any other similar tool? I tried reaching to some folks on ebay and they got the MSL for me however they were not able to unlock the phone.. Ebay guys told me contact next week and they might have a solution for 7.0
Custom rom
Can't we just root the device and install some custom rom...?
Which is marshmallow based...
Is that possible...?

Ok before I start I just want to say I'm a complete noob at android and how it works (got my first android a month ago) so don't get too angry if I say something stupid :/
So I bought an unlocked sprint g8 off of ebay but switched to another carrier called mint (uses t-mobile network) so I'm not sure how the software updates work. I'm aware I won't be getting updates from sprint, but I know that I have gotten 1 or 2 updates from lg since I got it. I'm a little confused as to if the updates from lg are all I need or if they are just security patches, and if there is a way to install sprint updates anyway.
I know I can solve this by unlocking the bootloader and installing custom roms once they start coming out, and on sprint I can enable oem unlock, but there is no way to access fast boot. If I do adb reboot-bootloader (or whatever the command is) it just does a normal restart. If I'm not wrong I should be able to do the bootloader unlock after lg adds the g8 to their supported devices, but I don't know how I'll be able to do this without accessing the fastboot. Recovery mode seems to be incomplete too (I can't use adb in recovery I think the drivers are not installed yet), so I think part of the sprint firmware is still kind of in a beta. So if the not being able to access fastboot and an incomplete recovery mode is a problem with the sprint firmware, will the lg updates themselves be able to solve this? Or is there anything else I'm completely missing?
Sorry if that was a little confusing but any answers would be great!
You will still get software updates. I have a sprint lg g8 unlocked on cricket and yesturday i just recieved the August 1 security software update.
I don't have an answer to your question, but does your Sprint model get VoLTE on Mint/T Mobile? Thinking about buying one.

There is almost a 0% chance LG will let US variants be unlocked. And with the impl lock we cant even crossflash the G8, so yea you are stuck with the sprint rom.
Your phone will update. Received August Security patch yesterday. Use ADB to remove Sprint bloat.
Any way to get WiFi calling to work on mint mobile using an unlocked Sprint G8?

Just do reset to default with ##3282# and it will adjust to your current sim. Often mms needs that

Hello all,
I've looked everywhere on the internet attempting to find an OTA file to flash to get me to this version without S-OFF and changing to Developer Version. Does anyone have the file for this OTA? I do not have ATT service so i'm unable to do a software update.
Thank you.

I only need it cause AT&T killed 3G and now you need to use VoLTE and VoLTE registration doesn't work on LineageOS and many custom roms, so I need to go back to stock just to for a moment to get VoLTE to work and then I can go back to Android 11 on LineageOS.
Many Thanks.

yeah i am pissed with ATT they blacklisted my HTC U11 because of the VoLTE crap. yet they whitelisted the M9 and M8 phones. when the U11 has VoLTE. they just wouldn't add it to the whitelist of phones. now i am stuck on some garbage pixel 5a and buggy AOSP roms that never work right. the sad part is this pixel is slower than my U11.
no idea what version this is but it is for the att m9

this one i captured from the RUU_HIMA_UL_N70_SENSE80_ATT_MR_NA_Gen_Unlock_4.30.617.12. by opening up %temp% in file explorer. deleting everything that i could delete in there. running the ruu. waiting for it to get to the accept tos. then browsing the two folders it created until i found rom.zip then copying that file out to a different location and closing the program once the copy is completed. i think if i remember right you can flash it on the device by renaming it to 0PJAIMG.zip or twrp

I have two U11's and one works fine on AT&T with VoLTE and the other doesn't. I also have two M9's where one works fine with AT&T on VoLTE but the other doesn't . The phones that don't work LTE does work, and it says that VoLTE is provisioned the only issue is IMS registration isn't getting registered so VoLTE calls won't work and this is on AT&T side.
Now here's a funny bit, I also have a U11 Life and that phone works fine on AT&T and it's not even on the whitelist. So, it makes me wonder how they are determining which phones are "compatible" or not.
The U11 and M9 that do not work on VoLTE but LTE works fine and they show as provisioned are both quad band phones originally sold by CDMA carriers but there is no legit reason they cannot be used on GSM networks as they are multiband phones capable of using any service.
So, I was going to flash AT&T stuff to my Verizon M9 and see if it works like my AT&T M9 and AT&T allows IMS registration to occur. From what I understand the IMS registration happens between the Qualcom chip and the carrier, and your version of Android won't interfere with it afterwards, At&T seems to be pickey about the IMS implementation. Meaning once IMS is registered you can swap back to whatever flavor of Android you were using before like LineageOS or whatever.

i got my htc u11 direct from htc the unlocked version. i was at ATT back in august 2021 trying to get a new sim card for it and a new sim card for my pixel 5a because you need a 5g sim card to get 5g to work. i just had them activate the sim cards. when i got home to put them into the phones. the new U11 sim card was blacklisted so i couldn't get it to work at all and i had to go back to ATT to get the sim card unlocked . they told me that i could not i could not get a new sim or change sims for it, because the phone was set for termination in feb 2022.
that is odd your U11 does work. maybe i will try it again with the stock rom and see what happens at worse case i have to get the sim card unlocked again. i currently use the sim in a zbt wg1608 lte router. so when i travel i have unlimited LTE data for my laptop and i don't have to pay the hotels outrageous prices for 24hrs of internet.
Some quick tips what I did to my new OP9 Pro Tmob LE2127 on CE22 firmware here in Canada! Picked the phone up a few days ago and loved it right away but hated all the Tmob crap they installed. Tried converting with the Fastboot method and managed to brick the phone as I'm running Linux and its a little more tricky if your not a Linux pro! It unbricked very easily with the MSM back to Tmob tool and an old laptop on Windoz 10. Make sure setup the HUSB Qualcomm drivers properly! Than some reading and realized you can only go from TMob to EU rom with the MSM tool. Tried that worked perfectly the first time did all the subsequent OTA updates all the way to the current Oxygen OS 13 & Android 13 and its working perfectly. At first there were some weird SIM modem dropping and data issues but as I upgraded to newer versions of Oxygen it cleared it self up. Still says two sims in the mobile network area but identifies them correctly also the phone identifies as a LE2123 now! I also didnt unlock my bootloader but I did get an unlock.bin just incase that process took only overnight, I submitted and recieved the Unlock Bin the next morning it shows up in your One Plus account and you download it! Hope that helps some one out and issues I will report back! Phone is very smooth now!

I'm on the fence about that right now the phone is running really smooth and fast I will give it a few days see how it goes!
I received (another and hopefully final) my op9pro the other day. Powered it up and noticed the OEM unlock was in blue and it still is after updating to the latest version. T-Mobile is giving me a hard time on getting my SIM unlocked. Probably because I bought it from Amazon. Want to attempt but I have seemed to have forgotten if root is still achievable with Sim being locked. Sorry been away for a year, you know iphone things.(throws up in mouth). Good phones though for battery life
If anyone has a locked sim,converted and rooted,please do tell if it is possible I don't need the steps,just confirmation that it works. Thanks

It's 100% sure, possible. I immediately converted my 9pro to Eu on day 1, while sim locked. I bypassed the toggle with a tool in the forum but there's also an adb command available for making the oem unlock toggle work.
This includes root and unlocked bootloader while sim locked.
The thing to be aware of is, the T-Mobile variants have a different bootloader unlock process vs non carrier variants. You submit an unlock token to OnePlus and get an unlock bin back, then flash that bin. Lately, people have been reporting the site is broken and they're using support email/chat to submit and get the token. However, this different process can also be bypassed:
Right after you do the Tmo->Eu msm conversion, it's advised to unlock the bootloader on Android 11. Android 11 on Eu will not need the unlock.bin to unlock the bootloader. But it is needed for later versions so if you want bootloader unlocked, do it right after conversion while still on A11.
The "problem" is, once you do this, if you want to sim unlock the phone later, you have to go back to stock Tmo firmware with the stock Tmo MSM tool, as the built in unlocker is not in Eu or other variants. Which means you will have to wipe data later whenever you want to get it unlocked.
it took me 6 Agents at Tmo chat support to finally get the unlock handled properly. One agent asked me to submit my proof of purchase and I did but they couldn't figure out how to unlock it because of the imei starting with 99 and they only know how to unlock imei starting with 35. Thankfully someone else did know how and they got it sorted after a week or so. Some agents told me it needs to be on the network for 40 days, some said they can't do it because I didn't buy it from T-Mobile, some said I need to wait longer. None were true. I told them I'm a developer and needed to unlock my bootloader to test things for my job.
Here's a link to the tool I used for making the oem unlock toggle work despite sim lock: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ader-unlock-enabler-engineer-decrypt.4380419/

I'm sure its possible. If someone wants to get you up and running. But honestly, it's better to learn it yourself in case something happens and you end up without a phone cause you didn't want to learn. It seems rough but once you get it you're golden bro. Tough it out and smash them wires in the phone/computer, and open a terminal and tap away at the keyboard. If all else fails, slap the phone and)or computer around and show em who's boss
I personally had to go to AA as BA/EU was giving me a nightmare of a time with data
Just an update on my 2127 Tmob to 2123 EU conversion! Its working flawless guys I didnt bother unlocking the bootloader when I did the conversion even though I do have the unlock bin. It only took overnight to get the unlock bin this was a few weeks ago! The phone now is working really good everything is flawless still on a locked boot loader which is fine its working smooth and taking updates another OTA update came today! Running A13 Oos 13 LE2123_11_F74.
Which version of MSM tool is best for this conversion?

Yes everything is working good!
Question:
1.Enabling dual sim will add another IMEI to the device, so the original IMEI is duplicated or you get a new IMEI for it? In my country duplicate IMEI's aren't allowed hence asking
2. I remember there was a dual sim patch for OP8T and there were rumors of losing dual sim capability after update is that the same here?
