I'm not sure I understand. You are no longer on Sprint? If you've transferred to another carrier, you still need to use ROMs built for the LS990 as that is still the device you have.
gsm roms right?

You can set your preferred connection in phone settings, under mobile networks. So any ROM built for LS990 should work.
I have a LS990 on ZV4, official firmware but rooted and unlocked. I am not in the U.S and I'd like to upgrade the phone to official 5.0.1 firmware on ZV8 and still be able to use this SIM. Could you please point me to the right direction on how to proceed? By the way, I'm also getting 'restricted access changed' notification and signal fluctuation using the SIM I'm currently using. Oddly, using other carrier SIMs I don't see that notification. Anyways, suggestions please?

Thank you so much. This was a step up from my old phone because I bought it rooted and sim unlocked so I'm familiar with rooting, just not with a high end phone like this. And rooting is always beneficial.
Please help

I understand. Then you did something that broke your ability to connect, right?
Therefore, I suggest flashing the stock firmware again, to see if it fixes what you broke.

Again, I apologize, as I am uncertain of the procedure as I have never done it. But once you are sim unlocked, you can set your network preference in settings.
Quick Circle help
I asked the following in a thread I created, but it hasn't gotten 1 single reply, hoping you may be able to help me out if I posted it here:
So I recently flashed my G3 with Resurection Remix ROM, which is amazing btw, and the one thing I am missing is the Quick Circle functionality. I've been chasing my tail trying to figure out how to get it added, and all I seem to keep finding is mods for the existing Quick Circle but not the app itself or how to enable it. Help out a n00b please!!

Hi guys, I have an old S4 that I would like to SIM unlock. The phone is not on my contract so I cannot call up verizon and ask them for the SIM unlock code. I have been doing some reading and if I can get into the service mode or service menu there appears to be a setting to do this.
My ultimate goal is to use this abroad later this year with prepaid SIM cards in different countries.
From my reading, the service codes were blocked by Samsung/Verizon at some point. My questions is what version of Android and what modem allowed service menu access? I have tried KK and L with the MK2 and MDK modems but no go.
*Edit*
I should mention that I have tried the hidden menu enable MOD:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2303905
But, again I think this is dependent on the ROM/Modem version, no?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

OK, have another question. On the MDK radio I was able to SIM unlock the device. If I upgrade the radio to a newer version will I lose the unlocked SIM state?

Looks like the SIM lock state survives a modem flash - I tried flashing NK1 and then back to MDK and it persisted. I did this because now I'm having an issue where my unlocked phone only gets data and cannot make phone calls. Says voice is out of service but data is in service. But SIM in another phone works just fine.
Tried a few things but no go. I'm about to leave the country today so I guess I'll find out when I get abroad and try a GSM SIM, unless anyone has any comments on this.
Thanks, Matt.
My Note 3 was pushed the Lollipop upgrade. I avoided clicking OK to give permission but after a week it upgraded by itself (interesting...?)
This is bad news for me as I need international sim unlock - which I got via SUU app on kitkat - but now that doesn't work
Also GPS accuracy has suffered and my widget for turning 'Mobile Data' on/off don't work...now it's a 4 tap process (a reaaaaal pain in the neck)
I can put of with the GPS and 'Mobile Data' widget issue (for now), but I REALLY (!) need international sim unlock (sprint refuses to unlock it!) and SUU app is not working on Lollipop.
It seems a root is my best option(I've never rooted), as well as making sure modems go back to a previous version also (not sure which version). What's my simplest course of action to minimize risk of bricking and do a simple 'one touch' root that will allow me to unlock international sim use (domestic US unlock would be nice also! )
Any help is appreciated or a link to specific thread. (Travelling internationally very soon so need to WORK IT OUT ASAP)
If it was unlocked before, your good to go. Oden the m4j modem and do the rest and the apns. Worked for me.
The GT app will be updated for lollipop so the international unlock will work, says the Dev.
but with lollipop i got an error msg when i used SUU. i assumed it didnt work and theres no safe way to know until youre overseas.
And what did you mean with Oden mj4, and do the rest and the apns? 3 different steps...can you please elaborate. Thx.
And the GT app ?
So it worked for you. And what about domestic sim unlock ?
Thx again, Sammy

I ran the ssu app before lollipop and it " Sticks !" I've odened back to KK to take the Ota lollipop, I've used oden to install lollipop, and have flashed CM 12 none of that undid the unlock.
I am in the US on TMoble network with a ting.com sim and the MJ4 radio with the right apns every thing working great. The rest of the steps are the settings in the HiddenMenu.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2593305
Easy to do just follow the steps.
The GT app is another program that did/will do the international unlock and a whole lot more. Dev says he's updating it for lollipop.
Thanks for all this.
Does me having a SPRINT note 3 make a difference (as opposed to your t-mobile)
And where did you get the sotck, KK, lolliops and the CM12 roms - here on XDA or elswhere ?
is the MJ4 the same for sprint as it is for t-mobile.
I assume you did the domestic unlock and all works well ?
Thanks again

Hello all,
Just purchased LG K7 (Walmart Family Mobile variant, model# K330) and tried to unlock for use on T-Mobile now that all WFM phones are SIM locked. Received a code from cellunlockerpro but the instructions to unlock (2945#*model number#”) don't work to open the dialog box needed to enter the code. Phone has a pre-installed unlock app which checks the eligibility prior to unlocking. Is there anyway to bypass the app and go through the dialer or service menu to unlock somehow? Thanks for any information/advice.
I bought the same phone yesterday for the same purpose. You need to search the forums, and download lgup, lgup_k330 T-Mobile, and WEB_K33010h_00 T-MOBILE.kdz. Follow instructions on the install, and flash that file. It will boot back up connected to T-Mobile. No unlock code needed.
Let me add as I am sure you know I had rooted, and unlocked the bootloader.

Okay, so if I flash this .kdz to the MetroPCS (ms330) variant using LGUp then I will be network unlocked or have switched networks to TMobile from MetroPCS; bypassing the factory installed device unlock application which was originally on the MetroPCS K7? Forgive me Im trying to verify before I attempt this.

Its possible, but more likely that you would just brick your phone if you tried flashing a firmware that wasnt for your exact model phone. Mostly because they use the partitions for different things. Never a good idea to flash firmware onto your phone thats not actually for your phone.

Hello Guys,
I can't see how could be possible to download a "Porto Rico" (H820PR) software in ATT version.
Normally, Bootloader checks if region code matches before flash.
Could you please explain more about this procedure?

Its not more of the bootloader, but Antirollback. This works perfectly on older LG's like the G2, G3, G Pro, etc.
So to use this, you will need to be bootloader unlocked, magisk perma rooted, and twrp installed, DM Verity Disabled this is a must!!(its always good to make a nandroid before making any changes on your phone). What this will do is more or less provision your Lg G8 to your Desired Carrier, it will also let you change your apns, so you have volte working and also the data indicator will change to match the carrier. WIfi calling i have not been able to get working, i personally do not use it. .
*Copy the files manually, it seems flashing them directly is causing unforeseen issues*
1.Extract to Content of zip to Sdcard
2.Make a copy/backup of your own files apns.xml,,custom_apk_list.xml,telephony.xml inside /product/op/config and cust.prop from /product
3.Copy and paste the files from my zip to:
apns.xml,,custom_apk_list.xml,telephony.xml to /product/op/config
cust.prop to /product/op
make sure permissions are 644.
4.Reboot your device it should now be provisioned to your Desired Carrier.

Hi. I have a LM-G820UM that I got off ebay a while ago. It boots as Sprint. It's unlocked and I'm on Tmobile. VOLTE/calls only work on 3G and if there is no 3G available then I can't receive/make calls. With Tmobile requiring VOLTE effective Jan, will this fix the issue to where I don't need to buy a new phone?

Only way to enable volte on a sprint unlocked phone , while active on tmobile is to bootloader unlock it. and flash my fix.
my network is gonna require volte and it is no where to be found. i have a verizon unlocked lg g8. is it possible to unlock that one with a fix to get volte to work?

Only way to get Volte for your specific network is to unlock the bootloader, as you will need the op files from the network you want to use volte for.
Has anyone tried these on the Sprint V50 and/or GSI ROMs?

Thanks antintin. I am hoping someone does an pull of the current stock ROM for the Sprint V50 since Sprint doesn't provide KDZ's.

No because you can't bl unlock it
This is a long shot, but I was wondering if this would fix the no volte on lgv20 ls997 oreo? I have root also. Stock. Had on 7.0, 8.0 it vanished. I just need to know if files are same/compatible? Don't want a brick persay.
Will doing this break apps like Netflix and Disney+?
