[Verizon HTC One (M7)] sdot_sd:
I'm having a similar issue. I'm worried that I won't have enough battery to return the phone to stock and relock the bootloader, which is what I meant in the other thread when I said unable to return to stock.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] santod040:
Have you tried turning it off and plugging it into a wall outlet for a while?

What recovery are you using?

If I was you, I would probably plug it in with it off, hope that I get enough juice into it over a period of time, that I could flash the full odex stock rom.

The Faux Hboot in my Red Text Hex Edited hboot thread, so that it appears as though it's s-on and locked.

Flash stock recovery and warranty it to HTC. They should just take it apart and put a new battery in and send you the same device back.

Those are pretty much the steps I would take if I was in your shoes.

Hope that maybe that helps a little and that you can get enough of a charge to do so.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] sdot_sd:
OK got it powered off and charging now. I've heard a lot of horror stories about HTCs customer service, any reason you would deal with them directly instead of VZW?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] santod040:
I've heard good things about HTC's Customer service, compared to Verizon's especially.

Not to mention, Verizon will wanna know if you have Insurance, will maybe make you pay a deductible.

Even if they don't, you will likely get a refurbished CLN replacement, which may or may not exhibit it's own issues of some kind.

I would rather have my own device fixed and sent back to me, then receive someone else's fixed device that may have had a bigger issue or stress to parts not yet known.

Just how I feel about it, and I do not much care for Verizon, other then for actual phone service.

You are more then welcome to try your hand with Verizon if you would prefer.

I also have a Blue One, so Verizon wouldn't do much for me...
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] disconnecktie:
My wife got a DNA with a bad cable and I called htc. They didn't fuss or ask any questions. They took my info and sent a new one. It was much easier than dealing with vzw.

Any one has any possible dates about the update for our sgs3 to 4.3 ?

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
probably between 1-2 months from now if the past is any indication.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rener78:
Wow that far lol got excited for nothing lol oh well thanks alot Doc I appreciate it. Will wait fo a leak then lol

Have a quick question for you Doc I'm aware of the leaked and now official 4.3 compatible with the T999V (without data) is it still safe to flash a 4.3 rom without the modem onto our phones or they all included the modems...Kinda lost so many 4.3 leaked and official roms I don't want to screw anything up.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
none of my roms include the modem. if one ever does it shoukd be explicitly stated in the OP.

you should be fine flashing the roms, same as always. sounds lije youre aware of the modem issue, but if you have any other oddities, please be sure to let everyone know.

unfortunately, i would nit expect a leak for the T999V. There are oeople out there who have it, but none have come forward willing to get it for us.

if someone wants to, they can pm me and remain anonymous. but i wouldnt hold my breath.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rener78:
Again thanks alot Doc and on the first day that the AT&T leaak came out I installed the modem and didn't have any data and lost my imei was lucky enough to get it back but since then I learned my lesson well so I'll wait. Wanted the new camera feature of 4.3 and used it without data and bah I don't mind waiting.

As I said it was kinda confusing with the leak, official update, official leak #2 so I didn't want to screw up again.Not that I was too lazy to search was just confused. Any odd stuff happening with one of your's I'll let you know Doc.

Have a great night

Bell is starting to get the 4.3 update for the S4 and possibly S3 so maybe Videotron isn't far behind... Yeah right!

Well, you never know, we could still get surprised by Videotron.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] space4ace:
The 4.3 update is now available at Videotron for the S4 so it shouldn't take very long to get it for the S3 also.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] space4ace:
Bell, Rogers, etc. now have the 4.3 update for the S3 (SGH-I747M) so I guess it shouldn't be long before Videotron, Wind Mobile, etc. users get it on the SGH-T999V.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] space4ace:
It's here!

I got the OTA for the SGH-T999V around 2:00am.

It's now running and seems to work fine.

[HTC One Max] akastixx:
Ok, so it's just the leaked 4.4 launcher. On the Max, at least for me, all you have to install the launcher, attempt to open it (you will be met with an error,) and then the next time you attempt to open it by pressing home, it should work without a problem. I am using the latest HTC update, but I don't think the results will vary if you haven't done the OTA yet. Again, you don't have to install all three files. The other two won't even install without root, anyway.

Link to the page I found this on: http://www.phonearena.com/news/How-to-install-the-new-Google-launcher-and-apps-from-Android-4.4-KitKat-keyboard-Hangouts-camera-wallpapers_id48969

Direct link to the apk: http://www.mediafire.com/download/3ina0fd8fwki5fo/GoogleHome.apk

Enjoy!

Observations: It looks cool enough, like stock Android before it, but updated. There is the persistent google now bar that is non-removable. Saying "ok google" on the home screens (except settings/app drawer) will bring up google now voice search, and swiping to the far left page will bring up google now. Pages will be added dynamically - that is, you can't have an empty page. If you need to add a widget, you hold down on an empty spot or press menu (pinching is not available, and it's not linked to the app drawer anymore.) Lastly, the lockscreen will still remain the same, and like all other launchers on all other HTC phones, you cannot use your HTC widgets.

More stuff: If you looked at the page, and were hungry for the 4.4 camera, don't bother. Pano/photosphere do not work. Download the 4.3 one instead at: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2340858, someone's direct current as of 11/20 google drive mirror: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_fGBfBq-dl2M21QVk5Eb0JDQ0E/edit?usp=sharing
[HTC One Max] Goddly:
owned the max briefly, loved the home screen (with the update widgets, like facebook etc, was wondering if this was feature of the launcher or a widget? and if we can port this feature to other devices) I appreciate your prompt response.
[HTC One Max] akastixx:
The Sense lock screen and widgets can only be ported to other HTC phones due to all the files in the background (the framework.) It is not impossible, but it is pretty difficult.
[HTC One Max] Goddly:
I believe the apk im looking for is called "Blink Feed"?
[HTC One Max] akastixx:
Part of the sense framework. Your closest bet would be flipboard, but I don't think it has social network additions.
[HTC One Max] pradeepvizz:
as mentioned by the OP already, its part of Sense and not an APK that's all we know.. there seems to be early efforts already in the samsung forums.. This is the best thing i could find - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2410165

[HTC One Max] jeffhbo:
Don't base your opinion of HTC's on the One Max, there is virtually no developing going on for this device on Verizon or sprint or the international version. I've had 7 htc's and they've all had a lot of great developers making lots of roms and themes, but the One Max just hasn't been that way. There are about 3 or 4 really great ROMs and a couple themes, BUT THATS IT. I'd suggest ViperRom.

Thanks for this. I love the "Ok google" everywhere!
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
So I have been doing some extensive research on unlocking methods for the LG G2. I think I am close to something but I have hit a wall. I need someone to test something for me to confirm if it's me or sprint.

Please in your dialer insert this : ##4433386368#

Then go to FW and tap the OMA-DM.

Can you guys see this menu?

Or does it crash?

Please post your results :D let's get this thing unlocked!

Please only post if you haven't called sprint to unlock yet.
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Has anyone tried this yet?
[Sprint LG G2] Cleanser2012:
I just tried it. It said unfortunately service program has stopped.
[Sprint LG G2] calvin269:
I think that is for MSL, I an on Custom ROM and can't check dialer codes with out flashing back to stock.
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
OK so it looks like something is keeping us from entering these settings. This OMA-DM menu is what HTC one users used to unlock the HTC one. Also what sprint uses to unlock the device themselves. THis is what manages OTA updates.

Edit: If anyone finds a way to get into this OMA-DM menu, or know how to edit it, please post here, would be much appreciated.
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Can anyone tell me what the Sprint LG G2 equivalent for this is? This is how they unlocked the HTC ONE for international use and I am trying to see if it might work with the LG G2 also.

[Sprint LG G2] micetwice:
Same here, setup crashes. Did you find up, how to fix this problem?
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Not yet, it's either Sprint blocking us from the menu, or something else, whoever is rooted, can they tell me if they find an apk called vdmc.apk or vDM.apk on their device?
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Ok SO I figured out that the vmdc.apk in the LG G2 is actually called Update Device. Now to find a way to edit that so we can unlock this baby! :D
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Done a lot of work in trying to get close to unlocking it, using a lot of the Terminal emulator, I was wondering if anyone has gotten their G2 unlocked by sprint yet and explain me how the process went.
[Sprint LG G2] michbaba:
Hi there, i too have a Sprint G2 that needs the sim unlock. For all i know, if Sprint make the unlock on their server, all you have to do is to go to System Updates menu and select the UICC Unlock

Hope you can find a solution for us, finger crossed.
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Yeah I am trying to find what value they change, or if they add a value, when they update it, all the strings for phone unlock are all here on the phone, I just have not come around to finding a trigger yet.
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
If anyone has some insight on how Sprint Unlocks their phones, I'd be grateful. I feel close, but still so far
[Sprint LG G2] michbaba:
Another interesting find is that in the service programming via qpst, the user data profile is locked and cannot be changed. And the phone does not have built in EPST function.

Well....
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Interesting... Although sprint doesn't use unlock codes. (not that familiar with EPST and what it does, quick searched)
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
I've decompiled most of the apks that have something to do with OMADM and Sim Unlocks, Havent Found anything other than a "DmcTestSimLockTestMenu" option on the hidden Menus, now when I open that, I get the menu and there are three Options:

1 Set DB for Normal mode

2 Set DB for Test mode

3 Check timetable

Now both of those first options do nothing towards SIM unlocking, so I'm not sure where to go from here, but if anyone has some insight into this, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Also, could anyone that has actually gone to sprint and asked them for the unlock, and got it granted, tell me what happened, how it happened, and if you've tested it to work.

Thank you :)
[Sprint LG G2] michbaba:
Have you found anything relate to "UICC"?
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Yes there is a ICC menu in LG's Hidden Menu APK, but nothing there is editable(at least from the menu itself), just shows the ICC info.
[Sprint LG G2] michbaba:
I would think Sprint only allow OTA edit of the ICC value so to change the SIM lock status.

If we can find the way to edit the value of the ICC then it should be done. Need to find which physical address the menu pulls data from?
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Yup, that would solve it, I don't know if it's allowed, but I have decompiled the apk, am I allowed to post that part of the code here so you can take a look at it?
[Sprint LG G2] michbaba:
I am not good at coding but this is XDA so there must be someone who does.

I would suggest post here so whoever knows more about this can help.
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
View attachment HiddenMenu.rar

View attachment OmaDmclient.rar

These are both of the decompiled APKs.. If anyone needs anything else(for purposes of unlocking the Sprint LG G2 of course) Please don't hesitate to ask.
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Anyone find anything or any leads on this?
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Question: Has anyone actually called Sprint asking them to unlock it, and can confirm it worked? I'm starting to think that, just like the HTC ONE, sprint doesn't even know how to unlock it themselves YET.
[Sprint LG G2] ysabxe:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2524771 did you read that post? may be that guy can help you! :cyclops:
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Actually had posted on that thread a couple times before.
[Sprint LG G2] pvinodnayak:
If you are rooted, one can install logcat and then ask Sprint to unlock via OTA. all the values that Sprint uses via OTA to edit the ICC value to unlock the GSM section will be & should be present in the logs.

Just a thought.
[Sprint LG G2] Hathoid:
Thanks for the input, my only problem is that I am not a Sprint customer, this phone was given as a parting gift when I left for Brazil for a work opportunity, Sprint won't do anything for me. I've been scouring all of the APKs from sprint that include anything related to GSM/ICC/SIM LOCK/etc... and I've found quite a bit, the only problem is that some of the menus are empty, which leads me to believe that sprint can't even unlock it themselves yet.

PS: anyone that has that OTA update, could you tell me what that changes specifically? I would like to know if maybe they included something about the SIM LOCK in there.
[Sprint LG G2] :
I try do this, but crash the service, appear unfortunately service program has stopped. I also have a ls980 in Colombia.
[Sprint LG G2] IcemanF-22:

changing the values of ro.build.target_operator=SPR to ro.build,target_operator=OPEN.

data automatically works :)

[Sprint LG G2] jamescochran2010:

[Sprint LG G2] Cronic2009:
Sprint will only unlock the phone for use outside the US, they will only unlock the phone if you meet ALL their requirements for doing so, if they deem you worthy enough to grace you with the magical unlock OTA!

I just wanted to add my little bit to this to help anyone having issue out, I also used the build.prop method, the only difference is I then changed my build a 3rd time from carrier=OPEN to carrier=spr all in lowercase, this stopped my system.ui crashes, I like this method the most because there is very little actual changing of the phone software itself, so I have found it to work smoothly!
[Sprint LG G2] pvinodnayak:
This method is already mentioned. Couple of bugs with this build.prop edit. You can't dial any number without using 0, if your Wi-Fi has not been set then you can't access your Wi-Fi settings menu.

This is the only current method that works for US GSM SIM.
[Sprint LG G2] Cronic2009:
Correct, hence why I said I also used this method and didnt bother mentioning how the method was done, just that I edited mine a 2nd time because with carrier=OPEN, I still got intermittent system crashes, my change back to spr lowercase fixed those, I get no UI crash unless I try to dial a number without a 1 first, easily fixed in contacts or while dialing and the wifi menu but I see a wifi/tether fix up on the site, I am going to start looking at. I concur there are these 2 bugs and I am sure a few others but for ease of doing and getting US carriers to work with 3g data = priceless

:laugh: Cheers
[Sprint LG G2] pvinodnayak:

I haven't seen anyone talk about this launcher, but it is awesome. Yes, you have to pay for it, but with the amount of customizations available it's well worth it. I know I'm a newb around here, and this post may not be taken seriously, but I thought I'd try to get a great dev paid to keep up such great work. Best feature that I've been looking for for over a year is being able to put widgets inside a folder on your home screen.

This is the "Tasker" of launchers. It's incredibly powerful & customizable. Just a bit of a learning curve. But much like with Tasker, once you do a few things, the rest gets a lot easier to figure out.

I actually got frustrated the first time I tried the free Lightning Launcher. And gave up on it the first day.

Read your thread and got the ambition to try it out again.

Really glad I did.

Nova Prime has been outstanding for me, but I was missing some customization options and Nova Prime developer team has not responded to my inquiries. So I'm going to double-down and watch a couple Lightning Launcher videos and figure it out.

I really, really like that it lets you have multiple home screen/profile setups. So if I'm right, I can pull up a different homescreen setup for each Tasker profile I have set up.

Also, there are profile/themes you can download from Play Store that give you some pre-arranged fancy-ass customization. Just to get you started.
