i remember seeing in a previous post the "code" you could type in the dialer to take your to your 3g/4g settings as opposed to downloaidng an app or going through 5 menu screens. if anybody knows, please post. thank you!

What is the code to punch into your phone to bring up the menu where you can change network type and all that?
I did a search and i can find is *#*#3424#*#* which does nothing. I saw it in the tazz thread once but now can't find it. thanks.

##778#, Send, Edit mode, 000000 for passcode. Or you can download Anycut and add a shortcut to the home screen for Anycut, then CDMA options, and change some things there.
Thanks

Through my hours scavenging XDA and related sites, I've found ways of getting past activation. If your not aware the MOTO Droid bypass trick (by hitting the corners) won't work on the Eris, atleast with the ROMs I've used. But here are some helpful things to try to keep your Eris from being a paperweight.
....Easiest things first.....
This has never worked for me but it wouldn't hurt to try it:
At the activation screen right before you call to activate,(below the statusbar)tap the top left corner of the screen then the top right, then continue to the bottom (just above the call button) and then tap right above the emergency call button. Then it should say skip activation
...Now for things that have worked for me in previous builds.....
Tap the activate or "try again" button then hang up. Do this 3 or 4 times. That should do the trick
.....One that sounds like it should work for 2.0.....
Press activate then immeadetly press home or menu. This is actually a bug they fixed in the OTA update.
...The one that always works for me...
On any screen you will see the emergency call button
Push it.. yes now push the button, no it will not call the cops
Now dial ##778 and push call
Wait a sec and push edit
This will open up your phone activation settings
Now go into your NAM settings and look for anything that resembles a phone number, I had to mess around with it a bit. But I changed some values from 00000000631 to some random number. After that push menu and write the values then reboot. If you did it right you will see the tutorial on how to enter text.
Hope this helped

By Pass Activation
This is what worked for me. No I didn't figure it out, whoever did is a genius.
As many people notice tapping 4 corners on HTC eris doesnt work because the version of it is different from regular DROID but this is the only way you can bypass it.
STEP 1) press EMERGENCY CALL
STEP 2) DIAL ##778 (CALL)
STEP 3) PRESS EDIT MODE
STEP 4) ENTER PASSWORD WHICH IS: 000000
STEP 5) TAP NAM Settings
STEP 6) Enter Your 10 digit phone number press OK
STEP 7) TAP NAM 1 and enter you 7 digid cel phone number without area code
STEP 8) TAP NAM 2 enter your 3 digit area code
STEP 9) TAP back
STEP 10) TAP SID/NID settings and change the left box to: 40 leave the right box as it is(then tap ok)
STEP 11) TAP MENU
STEP 12) TAP COMMIT MOD.
AFTER STEP 12 the android eris will restart in 10 seconds and will bypass the main activation screen.
This is the manual configuation for HTC ERIS
All Not working
I have tried all the above options, but non seems to be working (maybe its new firmware, and all have been blocked)
Any1 knows of any new hacks to bypass the activation ?
BTW, I have unlocked the GSM part with xtc clip
Thanks

Are you trying this from a stock based sense ROM like xtrsense? Or an aosp/cm ROM? It won't work on aosp/cm. You need to be on stock based.

Isn't the Eris CDMA only?

I thanked your post anyway even though you revived a thread that's been inactive for five years.
There is an app in /system/app that implicates there is a hidden menu in the phone. Well I did some digging and here is what I have come up with.
Dialing 3845#*970# brings up the menu for us with tons of diagnostic tools and radio controllers. I believe for the ones who have wanted to turn off LTE, this is where it will be done at!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1626645&stc=1&d=1357618309
Just thought I would share this with you all. There is a post a little bit about it on the Sprint forum, but thought i'd post it here too.
For those wanting to try to log it into 4G only try
Service Menu > WCDMA-Only > Modem Settings > RAT Selection > then select one of those, if one doesn't work try the other.
Hidden menu on AT&T LG Optimus G is 3845#*970#
Bleh thought it saved...i did the star lol
Just a quick note to add that the mod (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2342370 )to add the missing mobiledata toggle back into the notification panel works for the Galaxy S5 once rooted. The older version of sqllite editor in the original thread is not compatible with Android 4.42 however, you can use the new version available in the Playstore ($2.99) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.sqleditor
T-Mobile has the annoying tenancy to remove the mobile data toggle from the notification panel and the latest GS5 and 4.4.2 is no different. Not a huge issue for those that are on the current T-Mobile plans that allow data roaming internationally, but if you are on one of the older T-Mobile plans that don't allow that, or if you are like me planning to use my unlocked T-Mobile GS5 on another network, having that toggle is handy to avoid pricy data overages.
-------------------
As per the original thread, the same instructions apply;
1) Download sqlite editor app from the Playstore. (Older free versions force close on 4.4.2)
2) Open the app and give it root permissions. It should populate a list.
3) Scroll and Tap the "Settings Storage"
4) Tap "Settings.db"
5) Tap "System"
6) Scroll down until you find "notification_panel_active_app_list", tap to highlight it. I noticed its a little hard to get it highlighted because it seems to want to highlight the one under it. So you might have to tap the one right above it to get it highlighted. Make sure its the notification_panel_active_app_list, and NOT the notification_panel_default_active_app_list. I picked the wrong one the first time and it didnt work.
7) Once it is highlighted tap the phones menu button.
8) Tap "Edit Record"
9) You'll see a list of all the toggles that are currently enabled to show in notification area.
10) At the bottom of the list add ; and the words MobileData then another ;. So it will look like this at the end. ;AirplaneMode;MobileData; Then press Save.
11) Reboot and you should have a data toggle now. You can now use the edit feature and move it anywhere you want in the list of toggles.
Note: After I edited it and rebooted the "notification_panel_active_app_list" moved closer to the bottom of the list. So if you go back in and dont see it scroll further down

You can use the old version of SQL. You just need to download TB Restore Fixer.

I downloaded TB Restore Fixer, but SQL still crashed. Can you tell me how you did it to get the older SQL version to work? Really want to add the Data toggle in the notification bar.
Just a related comment I had about turning off Data:
On my AT&T S4, I would frequently use the data toggle for saving the last ~10% of battery after a long day or two of use. I found that simply switching data (and wifi) off saved a ton of battery, keeping my phone alive for emergencies on that last few percent for much longer than it would if I were to allow apps like Facebook to constantly fish for updates.
The power-save icon seems like it "might" do the trick, but I wish it had the option to just fully turn off mobile data instead of "limiting" it.
Once I finally root my device, this will probably be one of the first things I do. Thanks!

Yeah, I just want to be able to turn the data on and off through the notification bar instead of going to the settings.
Got it to work using SQlite Editor version 2.0.1. I now have my mobile data toggle on the notification bar.
Does anyone know the wording to add the hotspot (wifi tether) toggle?
Just an fyi, all the toggles will be baked into the new version of my Project Infinity rom later today.

;WiFiHotspot;
Caps sensitive
SQLite Editor not saving tether settings
I've tried changing my tethering settings but every time I reboot SQLite will revert to previous settings which is preventing use of tethering.
With Samsung Galaxy S5 it looks like some of the values have been changed to some extent. Going through some of the id's values I notice not all the values are consistent, I've notice with some id's 1 will represent disable while 0 represent enabled while with other id's 1 is enabled and 0 represent disabled values.
Im a little confused as to the reason behind such confusion maybe other devs can shed some light as to what is going on here.
Some settings seem to work like changing and adding MobileData and WiFiHotspot values worked with no problem.
Thanks. It worked on my SM GS5.
Thank you so much! Worked on my GS5.
Wish this method would work for adding the flashlight toggle.
Does this work for the AT&T variant of the S5?
Great mod!
worked great sprint S5 SM-G900P!!
download the app here:
download.apks.org/?server=13&apkid=com.speedsoftware.sqleditor&ver=2.1.1
not working
It did not work on my GS5 T-Mobile, I rooted my device, downloaded Sqlite, followed all the steps, but when I rebooted my device, the mobile data toggle didnt appear just the normal ones are there
---------- Post added at 10:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:28 AM ----------
OK found my mistake, I clicked on Notification_panel_applications_for_reset I found the normal one by using the search option and it worked perfectly! Ty so much!
Hello, nice mod, does something similar can be done for Hotspot/Thethering toggle? adding a ;Hotspot; or ;Thethering; ?? Thanks!
I just used the reset one and when I rebooted I reset it and boom it was there. AT&T G900A

How to change LTE band on Samsung S20/+/Ultra
Works on both chipsets.. I saw this tip on the board so I decided to make a clear instruction note on how to use it.
Download QuickShortCutMaker from the Play Store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...shortcut&hl=en
Run the app:
Go to Call Settings
Then select the LAST:
Call Screening option should be right after Call Screen Emergency and one up CAMERA
Click on TRY
Click on Top left menu ≡
Select Band Selection
Take a screenshot to make sure you can come back to factory settings in case you have issues.
Pick the band or bands you want, toggle the SELECTION button on the right up corner.
Go back.
You are all set.
I suggest rebooting the phone but this is totally optional.
REMEMBER: YOU ARE DOING THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Down?

Reporting that it works
Thanks
Thanks a lot for a tip
After the last Android update I did app lost its permissions and I can no longer access the settings menu. Would appreciate it if anyone has any work around as I live on the US Mexico border and I cross everyday any now my data intermittently works because it's constantly switching bands.
