[Sharp Aquos Crystal] myspac:
Hi,

In telephony-common.apk , there is a lot of class & method used for RIL (Radio Interface Layer). There is the class com.android.internal.telephony.RIL . I think it must be the good internal methods for Crystal, but not sure..

First, I would like to enable/disable "Data transmission" with the good "Ril hex code" that we can see with logcat when we do this manualy in Settings..

Second, I will try some others codes to try to unlock the phone...

For the first, I try to use the method "invokeOemRilRequestRaw", without any succes:

- try to load class and invoke method (=> permission missing)

- try to copy deodexed class/method , but deodexed doesn't work correctly and some methods or class are missing or to big..

is it a good way ? if yes, someone can help me ? (I m new for this)

thanks

wow now thats pricey for a unlocked sharp aquos crystal , wonder how they managed to unlock there phones, pitty they dont post to Australia

https://help.ting.com/entries/43744186-International-SIM-Unlock#2

And the list of Devices says Sharp AQUOS Crystal, anyone tried it?

Dose that mean they can active the GSM?

Anyone tried http://www.theunlockingcompany.com/

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJ-0sFQ6wuQ

or is that just a scam?
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] powercamg4:
That depends, the device needs to be a world phone (can't confirm the 306). Normally you would roam on another CDMA carrier but this would allow you to use a domestic GSM carrier. But you need to get the SIM lock removed by the carrier.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] onroP89:
In Germany there is no CDMA Carrier, we only have GSM. And the Boost or was it the Sprint Phone form the US is not locked right?

i will ask em if that would work in Germany, to bad im 99.99% sure that it wont work

Stupid Sharp/Softbank guys really pissing me off. i just want a unlocked GSM Version, since i saw the Aquos Crystal i dont like the look of the samsung,htc,apple random phones anymore...

There is not even a fake China Version ... what is wrong with the world.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] powercamg4:
In the USA there's "locked" to the CDMA carrier until you retrieve the MSL for the phone and then you can put it on any other CDMA carrier. But I don't know about the SIM or better yet the UICC as I have found out this is not using a SIM card.

If there is no cdma carriers down there then that means no roaming.

If it was a fake Chinese version it would be unlocked. That's just how the cellular phone market works, they want your service so they lock your phone to the network so you can't leave. There not worked about people who buy the phones out of the county.

Here are the HD image of 305SH PCB. Notice the board model number between sim and sd slots.

Hope this helps!

From the manual: 305SH meets all the US, EU, Japan, FCC RF SAR regulations.

It even has CE, with means that it has a mandatory conformity marking for certain products sold within the European Economic Area.

So this was even tested for EU markets???

[Sharp Aquos Crystal] MrTriTanium:
Can any of you guys confirm or deny that the Build Number posted on the Sharp Open Source Software (ex: S00XX) website matches to what is on your phone?

At least for the 306 it doesn't. My phone reports: Build Number: KVT49L01 ; SW Version: SA300.

Try this: Hold Vol Up + Pwr and comment with what it does afterwards. I wonder if it could be different than what the 306 has shown so far.

People this is common sense:

If some place claims to get information from XDA, and it IS NOT HERE, it is fake. Plain and simple.

[Sharp Aquos Crystal] :
Frustrated

Is anyone getting close to figuring out a way to hack this thing? Boost wont give me the MSL code cuz i dont meet the requirments of being a 12 month customer :/ I transferred my aquos crystal to straight talk, thinking that would get me off sprint towers and put me on verizon towers......i was highly pissed when i found out my 306sh didnt switch towers. I even bought a straight talk verizon lte sim card. Im getting very frustrated with my extremely bad signal and no root privileges. I see the chines version has been hacked, but what about the american version, my version? Are any of you computer wizards getting close? or should i just go back to using my old phone?:confused:
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] :
Screw Sharp! The Boost Mobile version does not have a bootloader nor does it have fastboot. This device should be already unlocked given the two factors previously stated. However, I am pretty dang positive that the kernel has write protection. I can modify the kernel source to disable WP pretty easily but my problem is I do not have access to the boot.img directly and since this device uses pcap to download the OTA via the recovery partition it would be very difficult to snatch the actual OTA unless the device is already rooted which isn't going to happen at the moment. Just sharing my two cents while digging through my wife's phone.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] NemesisMB:
You really mean the Japanese version right :eek:
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] :
Yeah I meant Japanese. It's a shame sharp ain't giving up whatever codes y'all need. This is too nice of a phone not to unlock it's full potential. Oh well, ya win some, ya lose some.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] NemesisMB:
Well, I have ordered the Unlocked Japanese version from a site from Hong Kong along with the Harman Kardon Onyx Studio and it costed me USD 465 including shipping via fedex. I think it is gud deal.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] :
I tried this method, it gave me the code, but it wasn't the right one. Guess it only works on mtero
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] skullvankrush:
I got one of these as a gift but have zero intentions of using Sprint. The phone is badass. I got the US CDMA version. I talked to someone at Sprint and they said once activated for 90 days, they would unlock it for international AND domestic service. I asked if this would allow me to use it on a different mobile provider and they said yes.

Don't know if this helps the process, but if you guys can figure out how to unlock it before I go in for 90 days for the provider unlock, myself and my wallet would appreciate it.

I have bootloop 305sh after restore other backup. The PC stopped seeing the device. button combinations do not work, help to enter TWRP:(
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] drystxx:
to enter twrp with your 305sh or 402sh, make sure your phone is off. Hold both VOL + and power button while turning it on, phone will boot into sharp logo and when the phone vibrates, immediately press all 3 buttons (VOL +, VOL - and power button) multiple times and don't stop until you see that you've boot into TWRP.

I tried both with my 305sh and 402sh and it works the same :)
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] filandry:
Can you explain it more specific? i don't understand immediately press all 3 button multiple times..is it on the same time?or what?
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] drystxx:
yes, once you get to the sharp logo screen and the phone vibrates, thats your cue to start on pressing volume down, volume up and power button consecutively and all at the same time til you boot into twrp.

AFAK, normal boot SHARP will set permanent WP on most of the partitions including system, boot, recovery, etc.

---------- Post added at 02:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:36 PM ----------

SHARP's permission control is not robust.

If PhoneDataHandler.apk handles "./SIM/Lock" URL, the code should unlock the phone, but someone removed the handler.

So unlock is still WIP.

private void init() {
Intent intent = new Intent();
// intent.setAction("com.sharp.android.intent.action.chameleon.updatephonedata");
// intent.setClassName("jp.co.sharp.android.chameleon.phonedatahandler",
// "jp.co.sharp.android.chameleon.dataservice.phonedata.PhoneDataService");
intent.setAction("com.sharp.android.intent.action.chameleon.updatedata");
intent.setClassName("jp.co.sharp.android.chameleon.datadispatcher",
"jp.co.sharp.android.chameleon.dataservice.data.DataService");
bindService(intent, mServiceConn, Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE);
}

private int writeSimLock(int val) {
int ret = -1;
if (mService == null)
return ret;
Parcel data = Parcel.obtain();
Parcel reply = Parcel.obtain();
data.writeInterfaceToken("jp.co.sharp.android.chameleon.dataservice.data.IPhoneDataService");
data.writeInt(1);
String[] record = new String[4];
record[0] = "./SIM/Lock";
record[1] = String.format("%d", val);
record[2] = "INT";
record[3] = "SOFTBANK";
data.writeStringArray(record);
try {
if (!mService.transact(3, data, reply, 0))
return ret;
reply.readException();
ret = reply.readInt();
} catch (RemoteException e) {
} finally {
reply.recycle();
data.recycle();
}
return ret;
}
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] myspac:
Yes, there is "./SIM/Lock" in "get" sub in "SIMHandler" class in package jp.co.sharp.android.chameleon.phonedatahandler of the app "PhoneDataHandler.apk".

Nothing will work until the source comes out to see if bootloader is locked. The system is write protected. Source has to be downloaded and allow read/write in order for root to be done its a lengthy process

so why is it harder for this phone then any other phones? if an experienced rooter can root lg,samsung,etc phones then they should be able to do the same w. this??. it's all android

[Sharp Aquos Crystal] baodownnow:
well there's a system dump of the phone..
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] sean82007:
The system dump which I also did, isn't allowed to read those mount points because it's protected. I already had three devs look into it. Can't do nothing unless we try and flash recoveries to find out if it's locked boot loader, or wait for source to come to see if it's locked. Shabbypenguin out in request for source and received email back. Sharp said they would be putting it on their site under downloads section soon. That was like six days ago though so.... Idk
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] weltwon:
Sharp ... are they?

Considering how late Sharp is to the smartphone market, you'd think they'd move their butts a little faster so that MORE people will want their latest phones. Although we still don't have a way to root or install a custom recovery, I replaced the Kit Kat email apk on my BoosMobile 306SH with Lollipop version and it runs great. I suspect many of Android 5.0 apps will do the same. If I could figure out how to even get this phone into download mode, I'd try a few Samsung exploits using ODIN.
