Thanks for your suggestion but this did not work on my G900P. Not only did I try to enable LTE mode which didn't work but I then I enabled Global Mode which did not work either. I did browse around the hidden menu and noticed that when I view the ##data# options, the Data Profile has a sprint account linked to it. Could this be a problem? This phone has been flashed numerous times yet the data profile has someonesname@sprintpcs.com attached.

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

---------- Post added at 12:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:53 PM ----------

Could you let me know how you got data working? Did you do anything aside from running SSU.apk? I flashed the Sprint G900P 4.4.4 stock ROM from sammobile and then the just updated over the air to 5.0 via Settings > Device Update. I have never had to run SSU.apk after the first time. Phone has been flashed 5x times from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 and also 5.0 back down to 4.4.2 and the unlock has remained in place the entire time.

I was gonna try to unlock a S5 running 4.4.4 but just going to wait till the 11 to see what's the outcome.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] mrkool:
so i have read through all this and i am still confused.

if i have a Sprint S5 running 4.4.2 with the NE5 baseband i have run the app and now it says unlock but i don't have an international sim to test. I did not downgrade my baseband to MK5 actually i can't even find MK5 for the S5. This S5 still says invalid SIM when i put in a domestic SIM but my S4 does not say Invalid SIM but gets no signal.

I also unlocked a S4 with the downgraded baseband and that one does not say "invalid sim" but gets no signal.

so my question do i have to do something with the baseband in order to get this unlock to work? i am on 4.4.2 NE5.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] sasuams:
I did not do anything special about the data. My uncle bought me this from USA sprint as soon as I got it I rooted it first then was using it as a wifi device later used SSU.APK and then everything worked fine still now I am using 4.4.2 only.

I think root may be doing somethin or else the modem you must downgrade. Or shall I take a copy of my os through titanium backup and send you.

If you root you will not receive any update by air actually you must plug in to your computer and use the samsung software and do I think.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] ShayzeeBro:
This unlock does not work for domestic unlocks in the USA, only for international usage. There's nothing you can do to the baseband to get your phone to work on other carriers in the USA, but it should work overseas. Refer to the very first post in this thread: From OP: "Keep in mind that this will not work for USA carriers. All 4.4.2 and up modems has a hard lock on those sim cards. So you can unlock phones older than the S5 to work in the USA, you just have to downgrade the modem. "

Hence why your S4 is working.

---------- Post added at 06:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

I don't think the root is causing problems. I only rooted it once I was on 5.0 in order to edit my build.prop but prior to that on 4.4.2 and 4.4.4 I was not getting any data despite the phone working for calls/txts. And yes, I got the OTA update when I was on 4.4.4 and then I rooted once i was on 5.0.

I have since downgraded back to 4.4.2 as I want to use SPCUtility to retrieve my MSL. It did not work on 5.0.

Keep in mind that the unlock has remained in place from 4.4.2 up to 5.0 and now back down to 4.4.2

Hello trying to unlock a sprint l720t I followed all the instructions and my sim is unlocked for USA usage. I purchased a att go phone sim card but when I install the sim card it says invalid sim card. I tried to change the band to gsm and register with att but doesn't work as says invalid sim. I'm still on the sprint stock firmware with mk5 modem. As said I did every step under the guide for the menu and for getting the different bands to work. Could anyone help ? Also I did not edit any APNs

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] chuckisduck:
Just for G900Ps with GSM data issues

I have one of the phones that doesn't work with GSM Data, my guess is that I cannot change APNs because of the rejection type I am getting. I have chatted with Sprint, and they know its an issue for some of the S5 (G900P) phones. Sprint stated that they are waiting for a fix from Samsung, Samsung says to contact Sprint. They are passing the buck.

I am going to root and edit my build.prob like a Note3 or do as kakaroto suggested in post 606.

Might be time to get a used S4 =(

Unlocked my Galaxy S5 in a matter of seconds, at first i didn't have the data connection but i just installed the APN provided by my Egyptian carrier and all is working perfectly now.

I have a question, does this work on Lollipop? I was on Kitkat and applied the unlock then updated and it still works perfectly but i am asking what if i had Lollipop installed in the first place would it still work?

Thanks a lot.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] sasuams:
Yes it will work brother.

May I know the exact modem you are using did you downgrade or something like that or just used the ssu.apk and unlocked is your android version kitkat 4.4.4.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] DArkSm4sh:
Once i received the phone it was on Kitkat 4.4.4 and all what i did is that i downloaded the SSU.apk, installed and unlocked then installed the Lollipop and asked my carrier for the APN configurations and everything worked perfectly.

I was asking my question because right now when i re-install the ssu.apk on lollipop it doesn't open. Crashes once it's clicked. I am not sure if that is because it's already applied or what (but still doesn't make sense that it doesn't open at all).
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] iBowToAndroid:
Well yes it would nice to have easy unlocks for them, but plenty of other Sprint phones can be unlocked - yes, for US use too - if you know who to ask ;)

El problema es el "IMEI Certi: FAIL". Eso quiere decir que el MEID y IMEI no son el mismo. Si miras en la configuracion, veras que son diferentes. Tienen que parecer para que de senal.

Your problem is the "IMEI Certi: FAIL". That (usually) means that the MEID and IMEI aren't the same. If you look in Settings, you should see that they're different. They have to be the same in order for the phone to get signal.

It could be that it hasn't been updated for Lollipop (might not support ART), but others have confirmed it does work. So downgrade if needed, run unlock, and install Lollipop again
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] DArkSm4sh:
If i unlocked a device then did a factory reset, would it still be effective? Or do i have to unlock it again?

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] iBowToAndroid:
Yes, both desktop and mobile antivirus programs flag it.

I have no idea why
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] MattMatt0240:
My PC AV used to flag anything associated with root as a virus, probably because it exploits the system of our devices... Isn't that the goal?

I mean, we're running Linux, app's permissions are potentially way more dangerous than a "virus" to us.

Edit: I understand this specific app doesn't require root, but it obviously has an exploit or 2 in there. I wouldn't worry about it personally. I used it, and my identity hasn't been stolen [emoji14]
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] iBowToAndroid:
That doesn't really make sense...

1. SSU doesn't need root

2. Even root apps won't be flagged. Apps that CAUSE root, yes, are a different story (Towelroot, etc).

SSU doesn't even have internet permissions... I can't think of a single thing that causes it to flag
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] MattMatt0240:
Indeed, strange... I'm not skeptical of it, but to each their own.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] iBowToAndroid:
Yeah I'm 100% comfortable with installing the app and using it. Pretty sure the dev isn't evil lol. Just boggles me what it is that trips antivirus
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] MattMatt0240:
All I know, is the dev worked some damn magic, especially without utilizing root. I'd still be easily paying twice as much per month if not for it. Most people would charge this as a service, but dev bundled it in apk and bam! He deserves our donations and gratitude.

Movistar Mexico

So I have a G900P on 4.4.2 I'm trying to unlock for use on a Mexico simcard.

I downloaded SSU.apk and did the unlock which worked. I then inserted my Movistar SIM (I'm in Mexico at the moment) but I still have no connection. Everytime I reboot it simply says:

And that's it. Any help?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] MattMatt0240:
Are any signal bars showing? Do you have Movistar APN set and enabled?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] echelon64:
Nope, no signal bars are showing at all. I just got no bars and a little red X.

Also the hands free activation keeps popping up as well.

---------- Post added at 03:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:45 AM ----------

Okay well **** me. This seem to have worked:

Go to Settings > Activate my Device > then quickly press Twice on the UP VOLUME KEY and then Three times on the DOWN VOLUME KEY

It gives me a secret menu , then select LTE, then select the "ENABLE LTE" box. It will then ask you to restart the device for settings to take effect.

I can check my balance via the Movistar's Automated service now and receive a text message , that being said I don't see any 4G, LTE, 3G, H, or H+ symbols above the bars.

Any help on this appreciated.

Went ahead and installed the Shohat V5 Touchwiz ROM linked in the guide and I still have my data connection to Movistar.

Maybe I'll try a Lollipop ROM next.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] MattMatt0240:
It sounds to me like you need to set the correct APN and enable it. This typically can be found in settings->(more...)->mobile networks->APNs. If you cannot edit APN, then you need to add these lines to build.prop

ril.sales_code=LOL
ro.csc.sales_code=LOL

To edit build.prop, you will need a rooted device. I am sorry to say, that is as much as I know to help.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] echelon64:
I can edit APN's just fine, that doesn't seem to be the issue. I entered the same APN settings I have on a Samsung S3 and double checked them on unlockit.co.nz and everything looks fine.

Oh yeah, the secret menu is called "IOTHiddenMenu."

Not sure if there is something there I can change to get it to work.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] echelon64:

---------- Post added at 07:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:15 AM ----------

Oh yeah, will updating say to Lollipop remove the SIM Unlock by any chance? Anybody here on a 5.0 ROM?

Flashed the Shohat V5 ROM linked in the guide and it works well, still keeping my data with the Mexican carrier. Pic attached for proof.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] MattMatt0240:
I am on a 5.0.1 ROM on my note 3. I can't go past a specific version of modem, but besides that, there are no issues for me. The unlock will persist through flashes, wipes, pretty much most of what you throw at it.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] echelon64:
Okay thanks, I guess I've got to do some research and what 5.0 ROM doesn't update the modem for my G900P. I do want Stock Touchwiz though for the S+ Health stuff.

Or if anybody knows any ROM that doesn't...
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] MattMatt0240:
It may be different for your device, as I only have a note 3, not G900p. Make a backup and include modem in backup, that way if all else fails, you can restore right where you left off. Or try to advanced restore after flashing new ROM and just restore modem from backup ;)
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] pr3zident:
why does it say SSU stopped working when I execute the program?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] echelon64:
SM-G900P NFC Fix, ROM, Samsung Galaxy S5 CDMA

Uninstall SSU, redownload the apk from the front page and re-install it. Try to download it off of a PC and transfer it to your cell phone if you can.

After screwing around with a couple of ROMS (Shohat V5, MOAR ROM, and CM11 [again]) any ROM that contains that Sprint handsfree activation thing seems to screw up data at least for me anyway. No amount of screwing around with the IOTHIDDENMENU seems to want to re-enabIe Data, after some reading apparently it might still be trying to connect to Sprint Proxy servers but I would not know where to go about deleting that so I moved on.

Went back and reflashed Shohat V5 even though it isn't supported anymore since that seems to be the most stable for me for data usage. If you go to settings you'll notice it doesn't have an option for "Activate this device" like in the stock Sprint ROM. So for whatever reason, removing that helps in getting it to work with GSM.

I then Flashed Blaze Kernel through recovery:

Seems to work, after flashing and rebooting back into the System I had to go to Settings > More Networks >Mobile Networks > Network Mode > and select "WCDMA/GSM" and that seems to get data working again using this Kernel.

Edit: Went back and reselected "LTE/WCDMA/GSM (auto connect)" And Data seems to stick, might have to wait a while to show up.

NFC doesn't seem to work with this kernel and flashing this NFC fix through recovery gets it working again:

Sorry for going off-topic slightly but I hope this helps someone out there that might be looking to do the same.
