After failing to unlock my HTC z using the software it is now not switching on. Does anyone know what i can do? Or where i can reinstall the original software from because HTC is refusing to take the phone as the only fix European phones. Or does anyone know what i can tell them. Please someone help me. I havve been trying for a month. PLZ PLZ PLZ.
Does anyone know what i can do to repair it. Or does anyone know how much i would get for it on ebay.
I was following the instructions. But then it said the phone will now reboot. After that it just went dead. Does that help anyone. Please help me.
try taking the battery out and putting it back in to see if you get any response from the device... if you do get a response then turn the phone on in bootloader mode, and flash your OFFICIAL carrier rom to it
I had this same problem when I first tried unlocking my 8525.
I can get into bootloader mode. If i press the power button nothing happens. But if i try to hard reset it starts and then the screen goes blank again.
Get it into bootloader mode and flash your official carrier rom... The ROM that came with the phone.. What kind of phone is it?
I dont have the cd so that doesnt work.
You can probably DOWNLOAD the ROM somewhere.. what kind of phone is it and who is your cell provider?
It is a HTC Z. It is on NTT do co mo
Ok.. do you use HTC Europe?
Yes as i saw it somewhere else.

I purchased it from japan.
when i contacted htc europe they said send it to japan.
Find the official ROM for it, and flash that, that will fix your problem, then Follow MrVanx's guide to unlocking.
do you have any ideas where i can get that from
I have no idea... maybe someone here has it.. Or check the WIKI .. maybe they have one there.
cheers mate ill have a look. Do you know if i can buy it from anywhere
I have no idea... I don't think someone will charge you for it...
can i get it from htc
please Madcap180, does bootloader mode means safe mode too?

you were scanning readable memory but found nothing. what were you scanning for?
you don't know which command in fastboot oem is needed for what?
you haven't stated what you're looking for or trying to do?
the more details you can provide the easier it will be to provide a solution or at least point in the direction of a potential solution.
What exactly is is you are trying to accomplish?

Why can't I get Diag mode? Every howto about this phone seems to just state "put in DIAG mode" but seem to skip the step of getting the MSL(SPC) in all the tutorials??? I put TWRP on it it, obviously rooted... Every time I do ##DIAG# it asks for MSL(SPC). EVERY cell phone for the last ten+ years has been a CDMA HTC, starting with my Apache in 2005. EVERY single one of them you could access DIAG mode, then use PSAT or Revskills to overwrite the MSL(SPC).
I can't get to DIAG, so I cant get the MSL(SPC), to gain DIAG mode.... lol!
What is the deal with this and how do I get around it?
cheers,

Are you trying to get your MSL code by entering DIAG mode and then use a program like CDMA workshop? That way doesn't work anymore since the M8 i believe. You need to call Sprint to get code or look in the forum for other alternative ways.
P.S. DIAG mode works fine here, I can turn it on and off no MSL code needed. Im also on the lastest firmware though.

CDMA workshop has not worked on all HTC's for a long time. WS kinds sucks I think. As far as I know Revskills will still work once in DIAG mode. If you don't mind, which radio are you on and are you using OEM rom or custom rom.
Thanks for the info bro!

im on Badboyz ROM 5.1
baseband 2.10.C1144070
Build 2.11.651.19
Yeah I haven't used workshop since the M7
Verified, Revskills will read and write the MSL(SPC) once S-OFF. I just did it.
Thanks for help bro and have a Happy New Year!
cheers,

i read spc with revskill after root., no need of soff, You can put your phone into diag mode without any spc., if you know how to turn on diag via ADB. i did it on my m9.

with ROOT...
Code:
abd shell
su
echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/f_diag/func_en
exit
exit
To get MSL there are many programs... I like this as it is small download and easy to use https://code.google.com/p/cdmaworkshoptool/downloads/detail?name=CdmaDevTermV.2.zip&can=2&q=

I have rooted my device and also gave root access to shortcut master and phone info app but still it doesn't launch the menu and gives some error. Any solution?
I have the same problem, you can achieve band locking through shortcut master under app explorer, check out hidden network settings. Interestingly it has a reference for standalone 5G!
Might need to flash with a combination file to achieve full service mode. I have an S8+ running with an engineering Rom and it has 2 system apps which can achieve full service mode, the apps are called Samsung keystring and iot hidden menu. With samsung Keystring you can enter any secret code. And with iot hidden menu you just select debug menu. Was messing around with lucky patches seeing if I could modify them to work on the S9+ but no luck yet.
Hopefully someone will find a way soon. I had the same problem on another S8+ after it upgraded to Oreo, so I think it's linked to that, but don't think there is an option to have android 7 for the S9!
This looks like it's worth a try.

But bro you can change so many settings in full service mode like selecting CA combination,activating 4x4 mimo,256 qam etc. I know about hidden service menu but for me it doesn't properly lock bands for some reason so i rooted just for accessing full service mode but i get this error. That telephony command doesn't open the menu but still the broadcast value i get is 0. I want the menu so bad because i only use 4g and i can improve speeds by changing some settings but **** samsung has locked us out. Maybe if ur phone is rooted and you have that 2 apps u mentioned try placing that apps in sys/priv-app folder and try opening it or may be find another way.
I will give that a try, i want to get the full service mode working also for sure, I am hoping for an option of setting the LTE category higher 16 or 20. I was reading it could also be due to the version of supersu used as the same thing happens with the phone info app. And those app developers don't think it's there app.

Did u find any way?
Hi all,
I'm having exactly this problem now. My purpose is to use the advanced service mode to lock LTE bands and to activate the 256 QAM and MIMO 4x4 functions. I have my G965F rooted and I'm having the same problems described before executing "Phone info" and dialing directly the "2683662" code. I updated the firmware to "G965FXXS2BRI1" with the same result.
I was wondering if flashing COMBINATION ROM could help... but I'm a newbie with this things...
does anyone have any idea about how to solve it, please? At leaste, any idea to use the band lock functions?
Thank you!

I don't know if this will help, as I have an S8. It works on Pie, and I think I may have used it while on Oreo.
I was able to able to get Safestrap (via EDL exploit: Thanks jrkruse!), and edit efs/carrier/hiddenmenu (from NO to YES)
In the dialer, the only code that ended up working for me (after much searching), was *#27663368378#
All the shorter codes failed. But, type it enough, and you'll memorize it like I did.
Alternatively (to memorizing), just for kicks I just converted it to words. An applicable one is "as-modem-test"

hello
It's strange that the advanced Menu Mode is disabled ... How the samsung staff will do to repair or test phones ?

the as-modem-test thing is clever. mnemonics can and do frequently prove themselves to be handy!
If you are rooted then use "Network signal guru" it can lock band and also might help you.... As i had used to force lte band 03 as my phone takes band 40 which has low speed.

you should also make sure keystrings r enabled by changing /efs/FactoryApp/keystr from no to yes
also keep in mind keystrings r also carrier dependent.. some have kore than others and some have different ones.. its based on csc.. if u look through them u will find each carrier has a keystrings.dat file
