Hi,

Thanks for this. I unchecked use recommended settings and picked Proxy Call Activity MAIN MENU: RilServiceModeApp (197328640) from the drop down list and then 'run with above settings choosed'

I took a screen shot of the list that opens but I'm not sure where to go from there.

These are the steps I was told to follow to fix the unlock but I can't get passed e.

Go to the Dial pad and dial *#0011#

b. Please click your MENU button (Bottom LEFT button) and click BACK on the menu that appears.

c. Please click your MENU button AGAIN and this time click KEY INPUT

d. When the Key input box appears please input the number "1" and hit OK

e. You will see a number 1 for a while, please wait until it changes into the SERVICE MENU

f. Please click [1] UMTS > [1] DEBUGGING SCREEN > [6] Phone Control > [6] Network LOCK

g. You will see 3 OPTIONS within Network LOCK

h. Please click on number [1] Perso Sha256 INFO, the screen will change slightly

i. Please hit the MENU button then when the menu pops up please carefully hit BACK to return to the previous screen

j. Next Please click on number [2] Perso Sha256 ON, the screen will change again to a one line message

k. Restart the phone on the screen by holding the power button and click RESTART

How to fix samsung s4 thats not accepting network unlock code after free unlock

So I finally got it working. So i'll post this in case it helps some else having this problem.

You need to flash an earlier version of the firmware to allow you to access the main menu in service mode

I went to this forum http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=39176955

and downloaded the odin v3.04 program and then the XXUAME2 modem from the list.

Then after installing odin I chose phone, chose the extracted .md5 file from my computer and connected my phone to the computer using the usb.

Turn the phone off then switch it on whilst simultaneously holding the volume down and home button and then use volume up to confirm.

Click start on odin and wait for a few mins until the box at the top changes to pass.

Follow the rest of the steps stated in the forum above

After the flash, follow the instructions in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=cY4LcdO2WAE

Restart the phone with a locked sim and try the unlock code now, it should work.

I have a 16 Gb S4 with a 64Gb ext SD card and just heard about the 32 Gb being available online through Verizon. I'm on day 2 with the S4 so I have plenty of time to exchange/upgrade to the 32 Gb and I was hoping to have some S4 members chime in and give me their thoughts on my situation. 2 year contract is a huge deal so I really appreciate any and all advice shared...stay with the 16 Gb or pay the price difference and order a 32 Gb device...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hovax615@hotmail.com:
I would pay for the price difference and get a 32 gig but they only come in black. 1 being that even though we have apps2sd it'll only be certain types of files and with the 16 gig your only getting 9gigs to mess with. Black and 32 gig would be a better trade off in the long run if you were looking to trade your phone. More storage.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
I appreciate ya chiming in hovax615...:D Do you have 16/32?

Ya my S3 has 32 GB of internal storage. I never had an issue with "not" enough internal storage therefore I never even looked at the internal storage stats. What I'm wondering is, on my S4, if I were to watch what I DL to the internal then would 16 GB be enough.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Southern_mind:
I had both the 16GB and the 32gb one. Go with the latter. Also I have it in white.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
I didn't get a new ext SD with my new S4...how bout you?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Southern_mind:
I have a old 32gb sdcard only class 4 but works. And I put my pictures there just in case.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gadget!:
Definitely go with the 32gb, you will be glad you did.

I've had both and there is no comparison.

Sent from a Galaxy S4... Far far away
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] anthony92170:
If you have a 16gb and its on mdk stay with that and use a 64gb sd card. If you go with a 32gb go to store and make sure its mdk not me7 if you want to root and unlocked bootloader
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
Ya that's a big concern. I'm a flashaholic and I currently have an MDK which I'm finding out is my only option in regards to rooting/flashing. Yes I'm using my 64 GB card in my S4. If I order a 32 GB will I have the option of turning it on, checking the build number & refusing it if its an ME7 build?. I'm gonna call Big Red and ask some questions...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
post a screenshot of your internal storage stats on 16GB S4

Can someone, that has a custom ROM loaded on an S4 w/16 GB int storage, post a screenshot showing the internal storage stats??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AliceBToklas:
Are you looking for custom ROMs? That could complicate things as you'd want to get an MDK version. Otherwise it's a no brainer - pay for the 32GB. It will remove concerns many have about internal storage. Heck, I even run short just because of the downloads folder - I know, I need FolderMount but just have not done that yet.

32GB is my vote.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
Damn Jenna!!! It's a $35 restocking fee (although the rep that sold me the 16GB device said there wasn't a 32 GB Verizon version offered) and an additional $100 for the 32 GB version. That's $135 more...**** I got my class 10 64 GB SD for $49 at Best Buy 6 months ago. I don't know that's a lot of money. I just gained root access and I'm bout to flash a ROM to assess the internal storage...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Southern_mind:
I say just stay with the 16GB one of its on mkd and flash one of the me7 roms and you'll be able to move apps to the sdcard and check folder mount to move app data to the sdcard.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
Yesr, MKD outta the box, been flashing the night away. I'm on Eclipse TW & Ive not had the opportunity to slim the Rom down yet but so far, on a rough setup, I'm ending up with around 5 GB of free internal storage. I did brick my phone for about an hour last night. I didn't think I was gonna be able to recover but I finally was able to get into TWRP, flashed the stock MDK modem, reinstalled SuperSu (I have no idea why that worked!) and that got the phone to boot. Anyway I ordered the 32 GB which should be here Friday so Ive got some more time to work on this 16 GB to get a better idea of what I'm looking at while running custom ROM's...I'll keep posting updates...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sevron:
Eclipse ROM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
Eclipse results...

I can see from your screenshot that you have 5 GB of free internal storage on Eclipse. Yep I was seeing the exact same thing on Eclipse, check out the highlighted portion of my earlier post.

I'm testing out Hyperdrive now...will post results...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
Hyperdrive results...

So far on Hyperdrive with a basic setup which includes all my apps/tweaks for a daily driver my internal storage available space is 8.20 GB...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AliceBToklas:
Here's to hoping the new phone arrives with MDK. Many people seem fine with the 16gb version, but I held out as I plan to keep the phone for a while and wanted as much as I could get - 64gb would have been better but I figured the chance of that was about the same an Congress actually doing something.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
Here's an update on the 64GB S4

http://www.autoomobile.com/news/64gb-samsung-galaxy-s4-verizon-tmobile-att-sprint/10021526/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AliceBToklas:
Thanks for that. Interesting it's still on someone's radar.

get current custom topic news on Hyperdrive News & Weather app

:good:

I got hooked on cutting edge news while on cm 10.1 via the News & Weather system app. You input an unlimited amount of your particular interest by saving key words as a custom topic. I failed to backup this app while on cm 10 but much to my surprise the S4 Hyperdrive ROM I'm currently testing over the last few posts has the News & Weather app. I now have a backup in several different places and once again I'm current on all my Andriod smartphone rumors/news.

Backing up Hyperdrive then to flash beanstown106's Jelly 'Beans' Build 6 and post the results...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] alextodd:
If you already have a 64 GB SD card with you then believe me you really don't need a 32GB phone, as your each and everything will be covered in this space. Besides that, Samsung Galaxy S4 also allows you to transfer your applications directly into your SD card, hence allowing you to have space as much as want without worrying about anything else. It would literally be throwing additional $135.00 for 32 GB phone, as all your storage needs will be fulfilled by your SD card.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
The 32 GB will be here tomorrow and if its not MDK then it will be returned.

On a different note twice I have flashed Beans build 6 and both times I bricked my phone. Flash went ok then tried to boot

system and froze on Samsung unlocked screen. Both times it took me an hour to unbrick the device...drove me crazy!

I'm currently on Hyperdrive and have 5.65GB of available internal storage. So far all is well. What I'm wondering is if I do an internal SD wipe after doing a nandroid/backup this will obviously keep the amount of internal storage high but will it also cause problems when I attempt to restore the nandroid/backup??? And if I don't wipe the internal SD then will I likely run out of space when having a nandroid of a few different setups/ROM's???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
received 32 GB today...

I have the new 32GB S4 and its a ME7. I knew it as soon as I opened the box cause the protective plastic that comes on the new device was removed on the back cover which tells me that someone opened the back, threw a battery in it and accepted the OTA to ME7...and sure enough its updated to ME7. Uhhhhhhhmmmmmm, not sure what to do...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
I have 2 S4's, 16GB MDK & a 32GB ME7 S4....

***UPDATE*** I have been on the 32GB ME7 S4 for a couple of days and I want so bad to "not" return the 16GB MDK S4 and send back this locked down 32GB ME7 TouchWiz pos...there are people getting multiple warranty exchanges searching for a MDK others members are jumping through hoops to get MDK and here I sit with both a 16GB MDK and a 32GB ME7...:confused: You would think this would be an easier decision...:confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Heatshiver:
I can understand the dilemma, but there are really only two pieces of criteria to consider:

1) Are you going to fill up the 16GB easily? If so, will a SD card just not cut it for you?

2) Do you care about custom ROMs?

For me, it would be simple. I love trying out ROMs, and I don't intend to use all 16GB, letalone my 64GB SD card.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
I have the 32GB ME7 boxed up and ready to go back. I'm going nuts without ROM'n. I didn't buy this phone to simply call my wife after work and tell her I'm on my way home...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Heatshiver:
Hahaha, me neither. Good choice!

config.dat ran to change radio, since not s=off failed.

need to flash recovery to stock recovery/ current recovery could brick phone whjen flashing stock RUU .IMG ROM

Not positive that i have the recovery that makes brick sandwich, becasue there is a old recovery that does not allow certain system files to fetch the files needed to install RUU.

Need to verify recovery/flash stock RUU rom

if recovery is not verified / flash stock recovery i Have TeamWin 2.4.4.0 TWRP

proceed to write radio

[Galaxy S II General] nadliw:
Dear all. I just want to share what I have done with my E120L to customize this phone.

The big size of file that you downloaded is used by Odin. I am using Odin 3.07.

Before flash/install make sure to wipe/clear data factory reset and cache. If not you will probably get boot-loop after flash/install.

If you got boot-loop enter the Stock Recovery Mode to wipe/clear Data Factory Reset and Cache. For E120L entering recovery by pressing Vol Up + Vol Down + Power button simultaneously. Release button after Samsung logo disappear.

To flash/install the firmware .tar or .md5:

1. Open Odin. For me I always open with Administrator privilege. Leave all check-box as it is.

2. Click PDA button and choose the firmware that you just downloaded.

4. Turn off your phone. Enter the Download Mode. Press Vol Down + Home + Power. When first screen appear push Vol Up.

5. Connect your phone to PC. Make sure it is properly connected. Click Start and wait until it finish and reboot automatically and your phone is ready.

Choose the correct phone model as yours to download.

If you want to use custom rom flash the CWM Recovery after finish flash/install the stock rom. Enter CWM Recovery and flash custon rom .zip. I am using cwm.recovery.6.0.2.8_touch_e120l.tar.md5.

I have done this many times to restock with ICS version and flash custom firmware. Anything you don't know here in xda has the answer and use google and google translate.

Hope it helped.
