[Moto G Power Questions & Answers] drector99:
Hello Everyone,

I have a questions about Flashing the Verizon XT2041-7 Moto G Power with a Retail version (XT2041-4).

The problem: Verizon claims the phone is "unlocked", but the phone is currently still "Subsidy Locked", and I am unable to use the phone on the ATT network. I contacted Motorola, and they can see that the phone is still subsidy locked, and I need Verizon to provide the Subsidy Unlock Code. Of course, Verizon refused.

Now I am stuck with a phone that I seem that I cannot use on the ATT network.

I have been doing a lot of reading about flashing images, and the potential consequences of the hardware being different (i.e. different frequencies etc).

My questions are this:

1) Is it true that I will not be able to use the phone on the ATT network unless the subsidy unlock is completed?

2) If I flash the RETUS image for XT2041-4 onto this Verizon phone, will it then start working on the ATT network with my H2O sim card, and my problem solved? i.e. is the hardware identical between the XT2041-4 and the XT2041-7?

3) I have tried flashing following the instructions on this forum, but get a variety of "preflash validation failed" and "not allowed on locked devices" messages. I assume the bootloader must be unlocked (i.e. through the code provided by Motorola on their bootloader unlock page). If I unlock the bootloader, will these problems be solved - will the XT2041-4 image flash, and work properly, or does this open another can of worms?

4) H2O wireless refuses to support me because the phone shows up (based on the IMEI) as XT2041-7, and is not on the ATT supported list, but XT2041-4 is on the list. If I manage to successfully flash the XT2041-4 image onto this phone, will I be able to get support from H2O to get the phone working, i.e. how do they see that the phone is no longer XT2041-7, and thus unsupported on the ATT list? Will they somehow see that the phone is now XT2041-4?

Any additional advice, solicited or unsolicited is welcome.

Thanks for your help.

Hi there,

I own an T-mobile v60. The phone is on A12 but rooted so OTA is not possible.

I also have problem enabling 5G so I want to try out the new software and see if it helps.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Royaltiger:
What software you want to try out since you are already on Android 12?

You could dial 277634#*# to get more options and choose "band selection" to force 5G.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] showgood163:
Now I'm on V600TM30b, so maybe V600TM30d.

I can use *#546368#*600# to select 5G band. However, I'm on CMCC (which is an operator in china) and I cannot enable 5G properly.

android apps are going back to default settings after reboot.

I generally limit some apps from running in the background and change some permission settings and toggle off the "change permission if unused". The thing is my apps are going back to the initial settings and permissions after i reboot the device (sometimes) the other day i reboot it and everything wasn't changed. But i power off the phone and let it off like 24 hours and it happened again everything was back to default and permissions too.

Does anyone know what might be causing this problem and if it has a fixed or work around??? Thanks in advance

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Thresher:
Seems like if I make a change in tf3d config than go make a unrelated different change in advanced config that the advanced config defaults override what is in tf3d config.

Is that possible? I am having the weirdest interface problems and I can't figure out why, my thought is that I am using too many tweak tools at once.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] _RMB_:
if you have both configs installed.... the one that would take effect would be the last one you used.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Thresher:
Thanks. By chance do you know if one of those programs (or another) has all the options of the other or do they all have seperate but overlapping changes.

Unlocked T-mobile U device here and typing *#73 or *#73# followed by the green dial button shows as "Non-existing short code" :(
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Abaddon:
Sharing my exp.

I have a u1 unlocked device bought from samsung us website.

I was on TMo but the code does not work, so I clean flashed the vzw firmware with data from odin then used the samfw tool to unlock all secret codes then tested if its working then switched my csc to gcf, tried the code and it still works. Now I'm happy to use 5G outside the U.S.

Thanks again for the help and tips via dm
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] KKYASIR:
when dialing *#73# i am getting error connection problem or invalid MMI code

It must be go to service menu right after you dial # but nothings happen. You dont need to press green dial button.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
Can you post a screenshot of your software information?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
What's your device? And what firmware are you on?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dj24:
View attachment 5695505
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
That's odd. You have a T-Mobile S22 Ultra variant. *#73# should work without any problem. And I'm guessing your on this month's current firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
I can switch my CSC to TMB right now and *#73# comes up right away. Would you be opposed into trying something else...like changing your CSC?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
So you have a S908E. This method has only been tested on S908U and S908U1 models.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
Wow this is a way more cleaner guide than mine. Props to you bro. Wanna make mine cleaner and also add yours...or just make a more precise one with both info added in? Not opposed to it at all. One thing I can add is that, even though the SamFW app says ENABLE VERIZON SECRET CODE.....I'm sure that it works on others besides Verizon.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
To be honest, I'm kind of shocked that there's not many people who don't know about SamFW's app. I'll be the first to say that when I saw FRP tool. It steered me away. I am a million percent against any sort of theft or any kind of fraud but for the sake of research and because it's my phone. I tried it anyways and found out it's capabilities. Now I will tell you this. Even though it's a very good app. It's only a matter of time before Samsung patches this and the app is rendered useless. It may or may not happen. Just trying to let everyone know. I'm no expert and/or DEV. I'm just an average guy that likes to mess around with phones.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] peacey8:
Thanks! I was just trying to add more info, didn't want to replace your guide.

Regarding VZW secret code, have you tried to enable secret code with FRP tool on other CSC before? Because I was on XAA, and tried but the tool got stuck on "Waiting for DIAG". I tried multiple times and it didn't work. When I changed to VZW CSC and tried again, it worked perfectly the first time and codes were still enabled even after changing CSC again. So I was thinking VZW CSC specifically has some code that FRP tool uses which ends up changing some NVRAM parameter to enable secret codes, and other CSCs don't touch this parameter (so it ends up staying that way even when switching CSC). Just guessing.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
So...this so called part that says it's enabling DIAG mode is nothing more than just changing your USB connection (to my knowledge). I can change that without the app using a different dialer code (see pic attached). Send me a DM and I'll explain more. Don't need a bunch of fools trying this stuff and then complaining or crying.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Village_Idiot:
Same. In on Verizon.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
What firmware are you on? Can you post a screenshot.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Village_Idiot:
AVG8
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
So try this first. Go to SamFw and download their FRP tool. Should be version 3.1. In the app there's a tab labeled MTP. In MTP there's an option called "Enable Secret code for Verizon", while your phone is connected...press it and wait til it's completely done. Now try *#73#. If it still doesn't bring it up there's one more option but that would require you changing your CSC.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] PapaDocta:
Is changing the csc formats the phone?

update:

Actually, it worked without changing csc... i have XXA and on AVG8 and the menu got enabled :)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
No it doesn't at all.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
There's alot of differences between the CSCs. I've changed to every single one available on my firmware. I've even flashed firmware starting at May (AVDC) all the way to this months firmware (AVG8) and tested every single CSC to see i there was any difference. Best CSCs to use in my opinion are XAA...GCF and DSH. I can tell you some of the differences but that'll require a whole new thread and i don't wanna hi-jack my own thread lmao
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] PapaDocta:
Thank you so much wr3cckl3ss1. My phone is originally unlocked XAA and tried the steps and all worked perfectly without the need to change my csc. I even enabled LTE CA and it's working :)

Again thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] KKYASIR:
can i change CSC on SM S908E/DS i am currently on XXV unlocked
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
No problem. Glad I can help.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
I don't have that specific device but the app is strictly for Samsung devices. Try it out. It doesn't hurt to try. But first find out what CSCs are in your firmware. Then in the app when you go to change your CSC....type in the CSC that's unlocked. I think yours is already one that's unlocked. If not, I think ( " INS " -India) is one that is.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] PapaDocta:
I believe your phone is an Exynos model and not sure if this would work.. As the OP mentioned this works on SM-S908U1 and SM-S908U
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] KKYASIR:
below supported CSC list for my device , took from SamFw

ACR | AFG | AFR | BKD | CAL | CPW | DKR | ECT | EGY | EON | EUY | FWD | GLB | GTO | ILO | ILP | INS | KSA | LYS | MBM | MID | MM1 | MSR | MWD | MYM | NPL | OPS | PAK | PKD | SIN | SLK | SRR | STH | SWC | TEL | THL | TOP | TPA | TUN | TUR | VAU | WWD | XFA | XFE | XFV | XME | XNZ | XSA | XSG | XSP | XTC | XXV
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
Depending on what he wants. If he wants to enable the bands then yes...this is only for S908U & S908U1 but if he wants to change CSC than the SamFw app can be of some use to him. The app is for Samsung devices only, no matter the model.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] KKYASIR:
It's Snapdragon
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
What are you looking to do? Change CSC or Enable All Bands.... because if you want to Enable All Bands on your S908E than this guide can't help because I don't have that device and don't know the dialer code. But if you can find out what your Service Menu dialer code is....then I can probably guide you to where you need to be. Samsung doesn't change too much in terms of dialer codes, it's just a matter of getting inside and what you see first.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] KKYASIR:
I just want to use Dialer code to use service Menu.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] PapaDocta:
My bad... I Googled it earlier and one website showed as Exynos.. Thanks for the correction
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
What specifically inside the Service Menu are you looking for? I know alot about what's inside the Service Menu. If youre thinking SIM UNLOCK.....nope. it won't happen.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] KKYASIR:
Dear just want to use service menu what options are available in my device , i don't have any specific reason , can you share me the code so I can enter in service mode.

Thanks to you for your time and support
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
I wish I had an S908E.....unlocked bootloader and root as soon as you can power it on and run those commands. But this S908U is not too far away 😁😁😏😏
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
I'll throw you some help...even though I don't know what it will do to your device. Type *#0011#....tell me what it brings up....
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
If this does bring it up....dont mess with things that you have no idea about and don't try a Google search. It won't do you any good. I literally have tried everything inside. The worst thing I've done was disable my radio. Meaning no cell service and wifi. And I lost it for two days. Not even reflashing helped.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] KKYASIR:
*#0011#
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
*#0011#

Is the default dialer code for the Service Menu. Since it took you there then you can't do anything. (It does the same for me) Do what I did when I first started messing with my phone. Go to Google and search S22 Ultra secret codes. There's plenty of sites. Choose one and run thru every single code they have. One of them is bound to get you to the main screen of the Service Menu. But still..idk why you would want to look. Nothing inside is really of solid use but to each, their own. Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] 23Six:
Does this enable 5G bands to work in Europe properly on the Snapdragon model?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
This guide is tailored specifically for the S908U and S908U1 models. But if you can find your way into the menu where it says Band Selection. Then this guide can somewhat help you.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] 23Six:
Yes, I have the S908U1. Currently in UK so can report back with testing if I can be pointed in the right direction
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
Ok then follow the guide and see what you find. Better yet, @peacey8 posted a way more instructional guide. Try mine first and then his....see what works for you then report back. Waiting on @peacey8 to see if we can make a thorough guide that can work on S908U variants but also all variants of the Ultra....if not all the S22 family.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] peacey8:
Yes I know how to enable DIAG (*#0808# menu), but I did that and it still wouldn't work on XAA before I switched to VZW (got stuck at waiting for DIAG, not enabling DIAG). Switching to VZW was what worked for me. DIAG gives access to diagnostic mode, so I thought VZW exposed a specific code in this mode that other CSCs didn't, that FRP tool was using to enable the secret codes.

But have you successfully enabled secret codes on non-VZW before? Curious if it was just an issue with me.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] PapaDocta:
My phone is XAA and I enabled hidden menu without changing my csc to VZW... I got stuck at waiting for diag so what I did I toggled USB Debugging on/off while it was stuck at waiting for diag and it worked.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] peacey8:
Interesting, I should try it again on XAA. But which CSC is XXA?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] PapaDocta:
It's US unlocked.. SM-S908U1
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] peacey8:
Oh XAA. Sorry you typed XXA multiple times so I was confused.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] PapaDocta:
Oops my bad... I'll correct it
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
So in my experience. I, too was held up on Waiting for DIAG while on a different CSC. But what I did was while it was stuck on waiting. I jumped into *#0808# switched to DM+ADB and sure enough it. It went thru and said DONE.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] peacey8:
That's good to hear @wr3cckl3ss1. It seems it might not be needed to be on VZW CSC to unlock secret codes from your experiences.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
Yeah I'm not kidding when I say I've done everything and tested alot on this phone. Alot was just based a guesses but I'm still good and I haven't bricked. You mentioned something about NVRAM. I'm not too familiar with all the technical terms and all the diagnostical stuff but what does that do
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] peacey8:
NVRAM is non-volatile storage. It's where stuff like band selection and other mostly static firmware values like IMEI are stored. The firmware is able to change NVRAM values, or if you root you can change it manually.

I was mentioning NVRAM because I was guessing that's probably where the option for if secret codes work is set. Since it stays active across CSCs even after activating it. The CSCs are probably not touching this value.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wr3cckl3ss1:
Understood. Thanks for the info. Offer still stands on that guide, if your up for it. If not, it's all good. Also, XDA is not much of the go-to platform anymore. Telegram is where it's at nowadays. Alot of good info hits there first before it makes it way here. For Ex....One UI 5 Beta 2. S908U1 is currently available. Still waiting to see S908U.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Village_Idiot:
Thanks. I'll look at it.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] craznazn:
Anyone else get past the Waiting for DIAG? Trying it on my 908U1 on the CSCs: XAA, VZW, TMB. None of them will get past "Waiting for DIAG". Also tried to enable DM+MODEM manually in 0808, still stuck.

Edit: tried a few more times, and it just worked randomly.

Any idea on how to keep CSC on GCF? If I change it to GCF or XAA, upon reboot it wants to change the CSC back to whatever's in the SIM
