This is from "CELLUNLOCKER" where I got my unlock code...before it was free...lol....... When I click on the t mobile for network....I get "registered to networkk" popup with my ATT GS. When I call a number I get the tmobile cust servc help line...... since I am not a tmobile cust.

I cannot remember which method I used....but I can go with att or tmobile sims with no issues. Right now I have H20 as my carrier, on the ATT network...but at least I know I can go to the Tmobile network or carriers anytime

How to enter unlock codes on all Samsung models

Different phones have different Unlock Code Input Instructions, Try the following Instructions in order:

Note: Non Accepted Simcard is any simcard not from the original provider

Method #1 Insert a Non accepted simcard in your phone and power on. Once finished loading your phone will ask you to enter a code, enter the Unlock Code

OR

Method #2 (NOT applicable for newer Samsung phones, ie. Galaxy S3, S4, S5, Note 2, Note 3, etc)

Go to the dial screen on your phone as if you are going to make a call and press: #7465625*638*UNLOCKCODE# (8 digit unlock code)

OR

Method #3 (NOT applicable for newer Samsung phones, ie. Galaxy S3, S4, S5, Note 2, Note 3, etc)

Go to the dial screen on your phone as if you are going to make a call and press: #0111*UNLOCKCODE# (8 digit unlock code)

OR

Method #4 (NOT applicable for newer Samsung phones, ie. Galaxy S3, S4, S5, Note 2, Note 3, etc)

Go to the dial screen on your phone as if you are going to make a call and press #7465625*638*# Once prompted for code, enter the 8 digit Unlock Code.

When this method is used for newer Samsung phones, it will say "unsuccessful" regardless of the phone being unlocked or not.

Phone Not Allowed MM#6 Tmobile- A clue to problem?

I also have the same problem...it is frustrating.

i have an unlocked AT&T Gear S ( unlocked thru one of the unlock ebay sites. it seemed to go well, and worked)

i setup account with Tmobile, and it worked, i have had it about 2 months, all OK, until..

i took out SIM to test with my unlocked IPHONE 6+, (i have been thinking of switching all my phones to Tmobile) it also worked OK,

Then i swicthed it back into the Gear S, and the trouble started (unless it was a conincidence),

'Phone not allowed MM#6', it tried everything.

1. reset Gear

2.rebooted thru the gear boot menu

-i called Tmobile, they did not have answer,m they asked me to try a new SIM, which i did online and updated account with new SIM,

same problem.

3.Tmo said maybe not complety unlocked to contact AT&T but i doubted this,

4. I tried a freinds SIM from his Iphone 6+ (on Tmo) it worked great in my Gear Sm and my 'unlocked Ipphone 6'

5. i tried my Gear S SIM in my Iphone, message poped up 'Phone not allowed' (this time no MM#6)

6. called Tmo again (maybe 3rd time) suggested another new SIM card, they everything on there end looks fine, they checked imei, sim card etc, all OK.

i told them from what i have read the forums mentioned a network problem, not a phone problem.

They connected with Samsung, they said they can try reflashing the Gear S, if i send it in to them,

7. i called Tmo again, and i spoke one rep who , GAVE ME A CLUE TO PROBLEM.. he found a note concerning the Gear S,

it said if the user puts the Gear S SIM cards (wiith the 'wearable plan') into another phone, it will block the account until the user reinstalls SIM into Gear S.

8. if this the problem, iit is not reseting itself when SIM is back in Gear S.

9. Not sure what to do next.

the last Tmo rep told to go into Tmo store, and they will try another new SIM, and ask them to try new SIM and my in anoother Gear S, but it seems many tmo stores dont have Gear S on hand, only display it am checking.

10. One idea may be to close the whole account and open new account for the Gear S.

did anybody have luck with this problem?

Call tmo back and have them make sure you have the right data plan I had the same problem and mine was on a tablet data plan not mobile/watch plan
[Samsung Gear S] HagbardCelineII:
I am experiencing a similar issue with TMobile. My thread is in here, http://xdaforums.com/gear-s/help/gear-s-longer-able-to-register-tmobiles-t3040635

I have the factory unlocked international version, SM-R750W, and several people here said it wouldn't work. It worked perfectly for a day, then nothing. New SIM, it worked perfectly again for maybe 5 minutes.
[Samsung Gear S] perdikoylis:
Still no luck, but maybe a couple more clues;

1. As the tech support advised, I went to a Tmo store, and they swapped the nano sim , no help.

2. I put in a sim from my friends tmo iPhone. It seemed great.

3. I called tech support back, they escalated problem to the engineering dept,

Said it may take 2 days to hear back...... So far no luck, please let me know if you have better results.

(I did check the plan online and with support to be sure it was correct.- the wearable / watch plan)

I feel it has something to do with there network 'rejecting' my imeo, but support checked that several times, as said it is correct.
[Samsung Gear S] HagbardCelineII:
They escalated my situation as soon as I called them on Tuesday and told me 3 days. Nothing yet.

Have you used the Tmobile IMEI check? http://www.t-mobile.com/verifyIMEI.aspx

I just tried it and it doesn't recognize my IMEI....But if that was going to be a problem, shouldn't that have meant it would never work? I can't think of any reason it would work for a day before they shut it off.
[Samsung Gear S] perdikoylis:
I had same result "did not recognize" with there Imei checker, further, the support reps checked several times and said it is Ok, My gear s is an unlocked AT&T, it did work for the first 2 months (until I removed sim to test in my iPhone ( I was considering switching all my phones to Tmo) Maybe coincidence? + But with a friends sim (from his iPhone ) it worked immediately , it even populated the Apn etc settings, but i did not leave on more than 1-2 minutes to test.

When I put my sim back in, it does not register, it does even show phone number, says:

"Phone not allowed MM#6" and emergency calls only.:confused:
[Samsung Gear S] _cmx_:
I had this same issue come up. The way I solved it was to close out the account for my phone number tied to the watch wearable plan. And then I created a new phone account for the wearable plan with a new number. And got a new sim card from T-Mobile at the time of creating the new wearable plan / number. It seems that the phone number that was previously tied to my galaxy gear s was not blacklisted, but the services were limited on it because I had taken the sim card out of the gear s watch and put it into a cell phone to test if there was service on it. So that flagged the wearable phone number account like I was trying to steal data/phone service from T-Mobile by using the only $15 / month plan on an actual phone. Like said above, the services are supposed to be restored once you put the sim back into the watch, but there is a bug with T-Mobile's service in doing so. So in the end, I closed out the "flagged" account, opened a new account and will never put the sim card into a phone again in the future.

No, i follow this guide to try some features of the Gear S. But my phone become sluggish, and the GPS still not work.

So, right now, the Gear S is just a digital watch to me, ha ha.
[Samsung Gear S] KDKobes:
The error is specifically a sim/network error unfortunately and more importantly this;

9 out of 10 times MM6 error means the phone has been reported lost/stolen and the IMEI has been network blocked.

Here are a few options that could be causing most of the issues I have read;

At&t is NOT open and a fan of allowing devices outside their network. Therefore its possible your device is literally reported as lost/and or locked to at&t and they dont want it on T-Mobile. And your best bet is to raise hell threating an investigation by the FCC.

At&t re-locked your device when att sim is put in.
[Samsung Gear S] KDKobes:
Your T-Mobile watch:

International GSM: 850 MHz, 1900 MHz; UMTS: Band II (1900), Band V (850)

Vietnam GSM Frequencies;

GSM 900 - 3 carriers

GSM 900/1800- 1 carrier

Bottomline it doesn't have the frequencies you need. It wont work period.

Any suggestions?

[Samsung Gear S] asmd6230:
I have the same problem with an AT&T unlocked watch and tmobile.

How are folks getting it to work with tmobile?

All i get is the MM#6 error.

Spent 3 hours at tmobile with the sales associate on the horn with whoever they can and it still doesnt work. But when a regular voice sim (popped out from a sales associate phone), it works just fine.

So it is definitely unlocked and the imei is not blocked as a voice sim will work but tmobile's wearable plan doesnt work.

Am going to give them till next week, and then just cancel my plan and ask for my 16$ back.....

Anybody have a solution?

asmd.

Looks like $15 T-mobile wearable plan is a no-go. I also called them a few times but nothing worked. I saw a video on youtube https://youtu.be/buWW_anJXxc and I put a Ultra Mobile sim card and it worked.
[Samsung Gear S] asmd6230:
Then how are folks reporting that it does work? I dont get it.
[Samsung Gear S] peterbrkr85:
MM#6

If you are using an unlocked AT&T or any other gear device on T-Mobile, you need to make sure you are not on a wearable rate plan because those are only for T-Mobile devices and it will create the MM#6 error message. If you want it to work, it has to be opened as a regular voice and data plan.
[Samsung Gear S] BarryH_GEG:
A device IMEI contains a TAC (type allocation code). The TAC contains each devices unique model number. So it's easy for T-Mobile to identify their Gear vs. other GSM Gears including AT&T's on their network. I guess the odd part is why do they care? Does it really matter to T-Mobile if someone's using a wearable plan on a device that

is

identifiable as a wearable? They more than any other carrier encourage people to "bring their own devices." When the plan was first introduced there was a ton of abuse with people using real smartphones on the $5 plan. The fastest resolution was probably just to restrict the wearables plan only to the T-Mobile Gear's specific IMEI/TAC.

The Type Allocation Code (TAC) is the initial eight-digit portion of the 15-digit IMEI and 16-digit IMEISV codes used to uniquely identify wireless devices. The Type Allocation Code identifies a particular model (and often revision) of wireless telephone for use on a GSM, UMTS or other IMEI-employing wireless network.​

MM#6 Not allowed

Hi there. Can you confirm your T-mobile $15 wearable plan still works? I just tried a new activation for a wearable plan and got the MM#6 error. This was a brand new device, successfully unlocked, and a new activation for the $15 wearable plan (Gear S Only) with the correct IMEI entered by the sales associate. I suspect T-Mobile has increased their stringency about which Gear S's models can be used, since a clause in their wearable service FAQs states the plan is not currently available for BYOD (Bring you own device).

i don't know if this is entirely true. I have an ATT gear s, had it unlocked, and working on Tmobile wearable plan. $15 a month with 10$ credit each month.

900/1800 band does not work

Hi

I have the R750A (AT&T) gear s one. The watch unlocked by att, but still no network signal (no network sign on the top RH side shows). I am trying to get my sim card to work on 900/1800 netwotk band (oversea). If I go to *#2269#, it gives the possibility to choose other bands like 850, 1900, 900, 1800, 850/1900, 900/1800 or all. You can active (yellow color means active) only the one 850, 1900, 850/1900 but not the 900, 1800, 900/1800.

Any one can help please?

Am thinking changing the AT&T software version to another version (from SM750A-R750AUCU1ANJ7 to SMR750-R750XXU1BNJ7_R750OXA1BNJ7) that may let me choose those 900/1800 bands.

What do you thing?
[Samsung Gear S] viskon:
Same story as the OP.

I have been using the Tmobile prepaid service, and it appears to be working fine. I decided to try the Tmobile postpaid wearable plan and requested a sim. I received the sim, put it into my watch and immediately got a text message saying that the sim in ineligible for the device. And also the MM06# error on the watch.

I called Tmobile and they put me to the technical Dept. The rep had me switch between the prepaid and the postpaid sim. It worked fine with the prepaid sim, but gave me the error message with the post paid. He reasoned that it was because the watch was locked to the prepaid account. He had me put in a request for porting the prepaid to a postpaid account.

I was told that porting would take 2 - 4 hours. But even after 24 hours, the account wasn't yet ported.

So I called in again and ran through the whole story, was again put through to technical support, repeated my story, did the sim switching again with the same results as before.

This time, the technical support rep did some more research and concluded that I could not get on the wearable plan because that plan does not work with BYOD. It works only with Tmobile sold devices.

He advised me to go a Tmobile store and get it activated there.

After going through all this, I decided to just keep using my prepaid line with the $3 per month plan. I had them take the post paid line off of my account.

So I thought Id chime in on this. I used a R750A (AT&T Model), purchased an unlock code from one of the many online sources and then picked up an appropriate sized sim from my local T-Mobile store. They provisioned it as a wearable plan, I paired it to my phone. The watch prompted for an unlock code, I put it in and all was working with call forwarding, text, mobile data.

It worked just fine. For about a month.

I then tried to unlock my phone, apparently Samsung now uses an unlock "app" instead of just a standard unlock code. The app of course didnt work so they tried to troubleshoot back and forth. I already had a sim from a different provider in my phone so that I could test the unlock and I was calling from another phone with my sim in it, so the rep thought it should be fine to just pop the sim from my watch into the phone we were trying to unlock. They did something on their end, I reattempted the stupid Samsung unlock app, and it worked. I immediately received a text from Tmobile on the phone that had my watch's sim card in it, something along the lines of "This device isnt a wearable, put your sim card back into your wearable and your sim card will be blocked until you do". No big as the phone was already unlocked.

I put the sim back in the watch, it restarted, low and behold, Phone Not Allowed MM#6.

After several calls to Tmobile, I got to a higher level tech support guy whom explained the root of our issues and that we are **** out of luck.

Apparently there is a database of Tmobile specific wearables and their "tac" codes (Im not sure on the spelling of that). He said that every provider has a database of said codes for their wearables. I had apparently lucked out when I activated my watch and the system just let it roll through, but in the switching back and forth with the sims, the system refreshed and now locked out my watch. He said they dont have the ability to add new "tac" codes to their system and I was SOL. He then reassured me that the watch would work fine over bluetooth but not standalone on their network (that kinda defies the point, duh). I had him disconnect the line of service for the watch and I'm jumping providers. When you own your phones outright, the price difference from T-Mobile to AT&T is negligible and honestly the whole experience just pissed me off.

So for anyone that goes to buy an unlocked AT&T watch to try and use on Tmobile,

BUYER BEWARE

, it wont work. Its not supposed to, they know what the issue is and they wont fix it.
[Samsung Gear S] malzonie:
Ugh this is some straight up Bull if they know this why the hell did they even let me try and activate my watch. I've talked to 2 support people and they don't know this. Or didn't tell me.. I can't complain too much I geuss as I got mine for $130 new in the box from a pawn shop. They had an open one for $170 stating that it was more because that one came with an extra battery pack. I said isn't that just the charger? He said no it's a extra battery pack. Being that I knew the S comes with that standard I immediately swooped it up.

What does piss me off however is that I payed $25 to unlock it after talking to a T Mobile rep stating they activate it provided it's unlocked. I'm calling tomorrow to raise hell. That's how I got my S5 for $215 from Virgin. I got a used S5 which of course they refused to activate. I said I was going to bale on them and they said they could give me 30% off of it since it was on sale for $400 then said they couldn't. To make up for their mistake they gave me 15% off the phone plus a free month ($35) and $15 off my bill for 6 months after that. Phone $60 off and $125 of free service. Honestly I don't like sprint all that much but Virgin has always been good to me. They gave me Unlimited minutes last year giving me 2.5 gigs and everything else for $35 Sadly they don't offer a wearable plan...

Looks like I may have to go with Pure talks $5 80 minute a month plane with texting on AT&T's network. The data would be nice for connectivity over network but I can just forward my google voice to the watch and my phone and almost have the same thing.

I'm sure I already know the answer to this but is there even a slight chance that the boot loader can be cracked on the 705A?

TL;DR The title

Hey XDA,

So about a month or two ago, I decided to check out xdabbeb's VS982.5 rom because i felt like a bit of fresh air after all the lollipop roms was in order. So I grabbed his bumped bootstack+recovery, and flashed over to the rom.

What I didn't anticipate(and what I really shoule have) was the issues I would have getting back over to a lollipop rom because of the compatibility problems between loki'd and bumped roms and recoveries.

This is where my memory gets fuzzy because this was so long ago, and I apologize if that causes issues with fixing my problem. I do remember trying several different recoveries and bootstacks and none of them would flash because of the bumped recovery. Eventually I found a way to get back to my backup (The January 11th build of BlissPop). However, I still could not flash roms because of the bumped recovery I could not get off of. I tried several different recoveries, and several different methods of flashing them.

Eventually I downloaded flashify off the play store and downloaded the a recovery from there and flashed it from there, which to my recollection broke both my download mode and my recovery. The rom still works, but I can't access recovery or download mode to flash any new roms or do anything besides what is in the rom.

I would appreciate any suggestions anybody has for me, and am willing to totally revert to stock to fix this.

Much thanks!

EDIT: I was using/flashing TWRP builds for all of this in case it was unclear

check if you can get download mode using the mae way (vol up + power) but with usb cable pluged in, plug the usb cabe, presse the combo (up+pwr) and keep pressing until it reboots into downloadmode *always with usb plugged.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iowabowtech:
If you genuinely can't access recovery or download mode, you can enable usb debugging, adb shell, then dd write aboot, boot and laf to ensure the restoration of download mode. Might want to also write twrp recovery at that time so you have a bailout plan.
