I have a ANS UL40 phone through Assurance wireless / >Virgin Mobile> Sprint.. and am trying to root this phone so I can get the SPC code to run DFS tools. Have used DFS and loaded phone and unlock with default password, but when I try 000000 spc unlock says device offline and all prompts in all fields go from yellow to red and in a few minutes go back to yellow showing device info.
I need info off this phone to flash my SM-N900P phone over to Assurance Wireless. The UL40 phone uses a sim card, have tried in note 3 but no service and then sim locked please reboot phone. I have tries on UL40 many different rooting apks and through pc. Most say root fail or your phone doesn't seem to be able to root. Any help would be appreciated. To root the ANS UL40 and also how to flash over Note 3. I have done flashing before on a note 2. So i basically know what to do. When I did try to flash over the note 3 I just get your account cannot be verified when calling 611 (without the sim) but when I insert sim its says no sim or sim locked reboot phone. Thanks
Guess nobody knows

do you know which 32bit drivers this phone might use?
I tried that one and it didn't root it and so many other programs and or apk's. Do not know if this phone is arm -- 64-- or 32. I do know that the maker of the phone actually is Teleepock company in China ** http://www.teleepoch.com/en/ ** no info on this model phone on their website..
Default file manager is CyanogenMod File Manager

Hi,
My friend just got the same phone and while setting it up for her I noticed that the default file manager is called CyanogenMod File Manager. It's probably meaningless but thought I'd share it just in case there's some sort of CyanogenMod back door. Good luck and if you do get it rooted please let me know.
I found a paid root that will root UL 40 Assurance choose the 6 mo lan.. https://www.oneclickroot.com/support-packages/
I wouldn't have asked on here if I wanted to pay for it, and they are not a guarantee they can do it. have read somewhere that someone ask them to do the same phone and they could not............ And no still no root. Probably does not matter. Talked to Assurance wireless rep today and they said lots of people are complaining about this phone. I have had in less than 2 weeks of getting it, had to have them warranty it and they sent me the same one. It would reboot on it's own and yes did factory reset. Now have the replacement, haven't done any kind of rooting or anything and on day 2 it starting to not be able to make phone calls. Says phone is not responding. Did a factory reset on this one and still doing same thing. Sometimes it does make a call and sometimes not. Pissed I am....
I stumbled across a site. Idk but it looks like it could contain some valuable info you may need or may be looking for. Send me a message or email me for the link. Since I've not posted before, it won't allow me to post the link.
I have decided to go to another provider for my cell phone and the UL40 phone will be no more. After talking to them so many times and finding they are complete idiots. Because they keep sending me a phone that stops working correctly after 1-3 days. Even before I started trying to root. I even talk to a real English speaking (LOL) person and they told me what I already knew, the ANS UL40 phone is a complete piece of ****. So many people have complained to them about that phone they decided not to ship out anymore. Now what kind of phone i will get from other carrier, I'll have to wait and see. Thanks all.............

I am looking for a custom ROM for my ANS UL40
Hello.
I was wondering if there would be anyone nice enough to make a custom ROM for the ANS UL40. I would do i tbut I don't have the coding skills or patience to do so.
ANS UL40 "Cast" compatibility w/Actiontec ScreenBeam Mini2
Asking if ANS UL40 "Cast" will run Actiontec ScreenBeam Mini2.
UL40 is "CAST" standard compatible with Mini2 (WiFi Mirocast and INTEL WiDi certified) ?
UL40 able to PARE WiFi and update Mini2 firmware. UL40 says CONNECTED, but click "CAST" and phone goes back to WiFi. Mini2 screen says Connection Failed.
If able to preform firmware update, then UL40 is communicating w/Mini2 so, UL40 should be compatible, but "CAST" fails.
Please advise.
Many kind thanks.

Hope someone can figure out how to gain root access on this phone I have it and It would be a blessing
you can unlock the bootloader in android dev settings "OEM unlocking", once in bootloader cmds like "fastboot oem unlock" or "fastboot flashing unlock" do nothing when connected with usb, what a shame. In recovery (vol up + power) there's an option to mount system, it does but I doubt that can lead to anything root access wise, btw, root noob.

In which market are you in?
It seems to me that they are still shipping it in many markets Assurance Wireless is in, like Oregon for example... so how did you come by that information?
I got this phone a couple days ago and got my msl code by running adb logcat while dialing ##data# and entering the wrong code, it was 536978 and used this on DFS to change it to 000000 then I was able to access everything once I entered ##diag# and then 000000, and enabled diagnostics. If I can get a working stock firmware or boot IMG I could root through magisk and then do separate fastboot boot (magisk patched)boot.img. I am unable to find a stock firmware for this device if anyone can let me know and I'll have root for us.

I have a factory locked S3, but my provider gives out the unlocking code for free. I put in a sim from another provider, got asked for the code, entered it and it worked.
I then rooted the phone.
However, after a few days I wanted to remove root and reflashed stock firmware with Odin. I searched out the proper file here at xda and flashed it. I then got an error about messaging stopped everytime I booted and searched some more. The solution was to flash with Odin again, but check upgrade bootloader. After that the phone works fine and everything is in place like it was new.
But, my phone has been locked again and my code does not work anymore. I have called my provider (leaving out the root and flashingpart) and they say that if the unlock is not working I must send it to them so they can unlock it.
So I have these questions:
1. Having done what I have done, will TriangleAway + reflashing stock with Odin remove every trace of my "tampering"?
2. What can they do to the phone that I cannot do myself with som advice from xda?
3. How many attempts are there of entering the unlock code? It still asks for a code. I do not get any message about too many tries. But I have must have punched the code more than three times...
I have read that people get their IMEI changed when reflashing, but mine is still original. I can not understand why the operator lock has come back.
Please help!
1) I believe so yes (not sure, I'm new to this forum just what I've read)
2) They can block the IMEI if the phone was lost/stolen
3) I am not sure with Samsung/Android phones but when I was unlocking my mums Nokia C3 it only allowed me to enter a code three times before displaying an error message.
It is not stolen or lost. I have bought it from my operator myself. I talked to them today and there is no block on this phone. It does work with my operators sim, but no other sims.
My question was that they can do to unlock ut that I cannot do myself?

That's not an unlock code though it's just temporary. A factory unlock is permanent (or so it should be)

I spoke to my carrier and they said that there was only one valid code for my IMEI, and that does not work anymore. It did work once, but after reflashing the firmware with Odin, the lock came back and now the code does not work.
Perhaps they just replace the phone with a swap unit? Therefore I ask again, will TriangleAway and reflashing stock remove all traces of rooting/tampering? If not I will get the phone back and be forced to pay for the service as well.
+1 for this problem.
I unlocked mine with the voodoo unlocker and was fine for a couple of months. Flashed a newer version of cm10 and was asked to enter Sim unlock code. This time I got the pin from my carrier but with that number it says Sim unlock unsuccessful.
Anyone else had this problem? Anyone know of a solution?
At the moment I just have a fancy mp3 player/camera :silly:
Voodoo sim doesn't work properly with then latest firmwarea but theres a new app 'Galaxsim-unlock' that I can recommend. Your'llshare find it over in the themes and apps section

You can try to use Valhalla ( Voodoo has disappeared from the Play Store ) :
http://donmacsblog.blogspot.co.uk/2012_06_01_archive.html?m=1
I've managed to get mine back to unlocked.
I was on cm10 and then when flashing a newer version the lock came back. I was originally using voodoo sim unlock but that wouldnt work this time so rang my carrier and got an official code which would not work either.
Flashed back to stock using odin making sure to use the network branded ROM i was originally on and not just a stock ROM, then enter the code the carrier gave me and this time it worked!
Guessing you must be running a stock carrier branded ROM for the code to register properly and unlock.
Hope this works for anyone else!
I just bought a Moto E 4G LTE that is prebranded US Cellular (no contract). (XT1526 with lollipop 5.0) I don't need to use this device as a phone and do not plan on activating a carrier at any point, but just want to use it connected to my home wifi.
The problem is that the device will not allow me to bypass or skip the activation screen, and gives me no home button or option to even connect to my wifi. My previous Moto E (KitKat) simply allowed me to skip the activation and use the device..this one just keeps calling USC to activate over and over and the only option I have is to call or power off.
I have been searching the web all night and still have not found a solution (which granted may be due to my lack of knowledge in this area in general, and hopefully the solution is obvious to someone more knowledgeable). I tried touching the corners + volume up, but it hasn't worked and I tried different combinations, perhaps I have the wrong corner-order?
Anyone who can help me get this thing to let me in would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance.
Anyone? Surely there is a way to get past this activation screen...I'm not completely tech-inept and can follow instructions if it's something I've never done. Would unlocking the phone get past it? Can I even unlock it without being able to get to the home screen? Please help!!
It might be a US Cellular-only thing, as both my Verizon Moto E2 and Moto-Unlocked E2 can skip through the setup process without a SIM by just hitting Next or Skip.

Keep in mind that you cannot unlock the bootloader in 5.1 until you get into the settings, activate the Developer Options (by tapping Build Number a bunch of times), and tick "Allow OEM Unlock".
If you cannot get into the settings at least once, you will not be able to install TWRP or flash anything.
What you need to do if you are stuck on the activation screen is wait 5-10 minutes while the activation runs and fails. After some time you will have the option to connect to wifi. After that you can get into the settings menu.

Download "Network" or "4G Switch" from the Play Store. Open, scroll down a little and look for "LTE/CDMA auto". Change that to "LTE/GSM auto".
If that doesn't work, you might need to do the same workaround that is needed for the Verizon model:

Turn off, remove the SIM, turn on.
@xtermmin. Thanks for the advice but didn't work at all. I use the phone overseas and had unlocked the sim tray to get to work with another carrier since I while ago (4 to 5 months ago) with this method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e-2015/general/how-to-verizon-moto-e-2015-gsm-network-t3098953).
As of the morning of today, upon turning the phone up, it didn't want to connect nor Wi-Fi neither GSM. I made a factory reset and right after the Verizon logo screen the phone get on the wizard screen for a few seconds (5 to 8 secs) and then leave me on the screen saying "Pleas wait, this may take a few minutes". When I read your comment thought that could be, but there is no change after been done.

If removing the SIM doesn't allow you to get past the activation screen, then it sounds like something on your ROM might have corrupted or something. Have you tried reflashing the stock firmware?

Launched with 5.0.2. Think there are some firmware images in the firmware topic in the General forum. Should be able to downgrade, but I haven't tried it.
I don't think downgrading would work. I updated my XT1521 to Marshmallow, and then tried to roll back to 5.1.1, and the flashing failed every time I tried.

Hm, maybe. Just in case, look out for any "FAILED" messages while flashing the old firmware - if any, retry that command, or flash back to the newer firmware.
Anyone go through device protection crap? I got a xt1528 from a ebay store that has tons of phones and clean esn. I got it on friday last week and still cant get in. Isnt it just a 72 hr hold or what? Also on the verizon model the message app makes it harder for the workaround and network dialer it dont work esp when youre trying to use this phone as gsm. Not sure how long to wait for the hold though. Do i still need the previous password or email that was synced before i got this phone? I hope not or else this is a brick. Ive factory reset Friday and changed password hoping that would work. Nothing so far

"Device protection"? If it prompts you for a password on bootup even if you factory reset, then it sounds like it was locked remotely by the Android Device Manager service (original owner might have lost it or something, and remotely locked it). If that's the case, return it.
"Message app makes it harder for the workaround"? What workaround? The Verizon model has both the Hangouts message app and Verizon's Message+ app. You can choose which one you want to use.
"network dialer it dont work esp when youre trying to use this phone as gsm"? The dialer works for GSM, you just have to turn on the GSM radio. Follow the instructions in one of these topics:

Have you tried installing the Motorola PC drivers and enabling ADB in Developer Options?
As for the Japanese language input, I see it on my XT1528. It's at the very bottom of the list, right before it loops back around to Bahasa Indonesia. (日本語 Nihongo)
I can't get past setup wizard is what I'm saying. And there is no Japanese input the Google one on the keyboard that everyone refers to to get to the 10 key and privacy policy. I know the ultimate goal is to get into dev options. I've been reading. I only have winime for Japanese input for keyboard. The rest is Korean and so forth. Seems to be a newer phone maybe. Today is the 3rd day maybe by 1pm est it will work. I got the phone Fri at 1 PM and reset and changed password. How can I get adb recognized if I don't have USB debugging enabled or unknown sources for the matter. I can't look inside. Stuck at setup wizard or Google protection sign in. Hangouts don't work in shared screen

Sounds like the issue I mentioned earlier. If you can't make it past initial setup due to it asking for a Google account password, then the phone you bought has been locked by the original owner via the Android Device Manager service. The phone you bought might be lost/stolen or the seller is trying to rip you off. Unless the owner left ADB turned on, there's no way around it. Return it and get a new one.

Not even flashing different firmware would work? Or the modem?

Install Moto Device Drivers (download from Motorola).
Boot device into fastboot mode (power off, hold Vol Down, power on).
Connect phone to your computer via USB.
Open command line, go to the Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder.
fastboot.exe devices
If it shows your device, you should be able to downgrade, but I have no clue if this will get around the ADM block.
Follow the stock firmware flash instructions in the General forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...e-restore-moto-e-2015-stock-firmware-t3044936
If not list or has a weird listing, you won't be able to flash anything. Return it.
Also, flashing modem does absolutely nothing in regards to getting around an ADM block.
Does anyone here have an extra or unlocked for that matter that they can sell. I have 20.00 i can send to someone honest. I use at&t so either xt1528 or unlocked and as long as not on that crazy 72 hour hold sign in crap. That is why im having this problem in the first place. Thanks PM me. Now at 4 days still cant get into my phone. Am i the only one that doesnt have google japanese input? If i had it i know how to bypass. This must be a newer phone all i have is the winime japanese keyboard and that doesnt do anything for me. Im looking for the a with the squirly line to long press i dont have that. I know the method to get to usb debugging etc and factory reset is the goal. But this thing is a brick in my opinion
Be very careful when buying this phone used I'm going on 10 days still have the Google verification on error device was last reset and synced with another account. Xt1528 does not have the bypass or Japanese input keyboard with the (a) to bypass. I've seen all the videos on this model it don't work. Maybe an earlier kernel or build of 5.0 when it first came out but not 5.1. This is just for xt1528 Android 5.1 you been warned. I have a paperweight now

Or just return it and buy one that hasn't been lost/stolen/locked by seller.

I"m in the same situation where I can't bypass the account verification on the xt1528 but in my case it isn't secondhand. The owner isn't tech savvy so they asked someone to setup a google playstore account for them. So when there was problem with the phone and the screen blacked out I factory reset the phone. Everything came back but they don't know the google account that was used so now it's stuck during setup. The japanese keyboard trick doesn't work on this model cause it's not the same one in the tutorials but I was able to get to the dialpad by viewing the motorola privacy policy and following the same instruction. My issue is I can't enable the test mode to activate ADB debugging. *#*#4636#*#* doesn't work.

Hello all. I've just recently "upgraded" (relatively speaking) from the ZTE Sonata 3 on Cricket to the incrementally-better Overture 3. I'm wondering if anyone knows how to get root. Thanks in advance.

do you mind sending me a link for the mentioned pdanet with wifi direct?
To boot into recovery on zte overture 3 isnt that hard, just hold down the power button while it is booting up. The screen will go black and it will look like its rebooting again, but instead of booting into the normal operating system, it boots i to recovery mode. Yes this is for the cricket version (just make sure you go into developer tools and allow the OEM bootloader to be unlocked)
so is this confirmed rootable?
unlock Cricket Overture 3 bootloader
download G-droid (is apk store) download Secret codes. tap on 759 (google partner setup) OEM on/off is there. Set to on and it's now in your developer options. Works on Z851M 7.1.1 just figured it out tonight.. I will root it... someone else could probably do it faster..

I am having trouble when I first open the QFIL, the port is not showing up, I dont know what to do.
Im using the ZTE sonata 3 for this if that helps
Hello,
I have an SM-N950U from TMB which was purchased direct from Samsung when it was just launched after the whole debacle of the Note 7.
Phone has been working fine on TMB this whole time. Today I switched to VZW and attempting to have the phone unlocked.
I tried to use the Device Unlock app on the phone, with no luck. It fails when I try to Permanently Unlock the phone.
I called TMB for assistance, they said that the manager has tried to process it manually and has been unable to do so after multiple attempts. Escalated to higher support who got on the phone and said she's unable to help and does not know why it is not working. Said she will be escalating to a higher support group, but as of yet, nothing from anyone.
Is there any way of unlocking this phone without TMB?
I've attempted to flash VZW via ODIN, both U and U1, with no luck. I also tried the U1 XAA and still the same thing, I get a message "Network locked SIM card inserted".
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am at a total loss and want to continue using this phone as I've been, just with VZW now.
Side note, maybe it's failing because the phone is already unlocked, just doesnt work with VZW? Not sure if thats a possibility, but is there any way to check to see if the phone is in fact unlocked or not?
Anyone?
