[Q] Cannot access UMTS or service menu - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to get to the service menu to get to UMTS to remove the carrier lock but entering *#197328640# does not work, would downgrading my firmware to 4.3 get this option back? or is the service menu still avable (hidden)
Note 3 N9500LTE locked to EE (UK) stock unrooted on 4.4.2 base N9005XXUGNG1

OK I've found the answer...... the code for mine is *#0011# go to soft menu press back then soft menu again key input "Q" ok then key input "0000" ok wait a few seconds and the menu appears.

how to revive this phone normolly???
Did you mess around with radio rom (phone.bin)?
Try to reflash it with COMPLETE (phone,pda and csc) new ROM, official
if possible.
You said:
"key combined hard reset not work."
That part of device function (battery charging also) is controlled by phone
part of ROM (phone.bin), so, it seems that problem is caused by faulty phone.bin.
Reflash it!

[Q] Pattern Lock on 2nd hand Flipout?

Hi all,
I bit the bullet and picked up a 2nd hand OrangeUK Flipout (details available if I need to prove I bought it legally)... but the seller cannot remember the pattern to draw to access the phone.
How might I resolve this issue, please?
I can access the Bootloader, which is on v91.10, but that's all I've found so far.
I have found RSD Lite v5.6 and the USB Drivers from the MotoDev website.
Will flashing RUTEM_U3_01.19.2 (or any other RUTEM) onto the device ie following the Debranding Guide, reset this and allow me to start playing with Android?
What about the FlipOut Recovery?
Thank-you,
Dylan.
Wow. Err, okay, I wasn't expecting it to be that easy.
It only took a simple Hard Reset and it's fine - Back to the start as if seting up a brand new out-the-box phone!
In case any other fellow Noobie-Noobs encounters this issue, here's what I did:
Motorola Flipout (MB511) - Step by step hard reset
1/. Switch the device off - Hold the power button for a couple of seconds and then press Power Off
2/. With the device off, open it up, hold the X key and hold down the Power button until you see the Motorola M.
3/. Shortly after, an image like this will appear:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
4/. TAP the power button to enter the Android System Recovery menu.
5/. Use the little D-Pad to select the 4th option - Wipe Data/Factory Reset.
6/. Press Enter to confirm.
7/. Confirm you want to reset the device.
8/. After the reset, go back into the System Recovery menu and select the 1st option - Reboot.
You should now have one factory-fresh phone!

A7 ( 2016 ) Service mode

Dear all
I just get a A7 from a Asian friend.. byt it doesn support the Band 4 of LTE in my country.
Is any way to enable the band 4.
I read in internet that the service mode is a way to enable this. with *#0011# ( that in fact goes to a service mode screen ) but different with the tutorials.. the phone shows
[1] STACK 1
[2] STACK 2
Intead the signal information.....
So i try with <BACK> <Q0000> and <BACK> Q <BACK> 0000 in this menu
also i try inside [2] and [1].. nothing seem to work and go to the "Service options!"
Does anyone know how to acces this menu in A7 2016.. or if there any other way to enable the missing LTE Bands?
Regards,
Are you having a dual-sim phone ?

you have to be root. I have the same problem some time ago I tried this method, but it did not work.
if you try too, could share it if it works? http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/how-to-add-rf-lte-frequency-bands-to-t2886059

first i go root in the phone .. second part i install phone Info that has the option enter Service Mode in root mode.
But seems that the Network I need to unlock is disable in the NV of the phone, so i need to modify .. i went to the post and try to follow th options.
the problem i found is that the A7 ( 2016 ) is unable to be detected in diagnotic mode
I setup USB options *#0808# to any DM opiton ( Diagnotic mode ) and is supposed to be recognized as USB Diagnostic USB .., but it didin;t work with Normal Samsung USB Drivers.. 1.5.60 do you have any clue on what happening?

Hey there. Got the same problem. Tried everything. Nothing happens. Have you got your problem solved yet?
The same problem

Only way to solve this is taking the phone to technical service. Done it myself. Be careful tought, they will try to make you change the entire mother board (280€), but if you insist they will "find a way" to install the correct software in your phone and leave it as if it was new
it is possible to recovery via dongle ... but sn and imei can be lost

SOLUTION TO ESIM DISABLED in Galaxy Fold (SM-F900F)

If our Galaxy Fold phone (SM-F900F) has the Esim option disabled and does not allow adding a second line.

1.- We must go to google play and download the application "Google phone".
2.- Once the application is downloaded we will have to open it and give it permissions.
3.- We will enter the following code: "* # * # 27262826 # * # *"
4.- A menu will be displayed in which it will notify us that we have CSC installed and we can verify that our system is not one of the first but one that has the word (single) (in my case MXO (simple) = Mexico 1 line) . That means the esim is disabled and you only have one phone line (PHYSICAL SIM). (Due to this problem, we do not have the esim option enabled).
5.-We will remove the SIM card from the phone to continue.
6.- Now we will select the csc of the country we want (that does not contain the word "single" because those are the ones that will not have the esim deactivated) (in my case I will select INU which is the csc of Inda and is the first to always update )
7.- We will install it and 3 options will appear, we will select the first (Sales & Network Code Change) and click on OK.
8.- Followed by the phone will restart and everything will be erased.
9.- When you request to activate the phone and select the language we will insert the PHYSICAL SIM card
10.- We will add all the data and start the phone.
When going to the phone settings we will notice that the option to add an Esim is already available. y The available imei 2 will appear.
Ready.
we will have concluded.
Hey i have tried but didn't get the menu. I have android 11.

Tried the XAA which is the USA unlocked. It processed the request, rebooted the phone but did not erase it and esim menu is still locked.
Repeated the procedure and the gui shows XAA as preset for Sales/Net, Net2 code.
