Suitable downgrade firmware with "Hidden meny" options available? - Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 Questions & Answer

Hello
Wondering if anyone could give me a hint of which stock firmware I would need in order to get options in the hidden menu available and thats compatible with Samsung GT-I8730.
Currently running Android-version 4.1.2 original stock firmware.
Trying to unlock SIM, using Chimera but gets stuck at 19%, when a popup-window tells me to enable Diagnostic Mode (DM) by using *#0808# or *#9090# or *#7284# in dial window
The two first options nothing happens at all and dialing *#7284# brings me to PhoneUtil with options UART, Modem or PDA, where PDA was default but there is no USB section available.
Also I would need the *#9090# to set Diag config to USB-value.
Am new at this and would be grateful for any help I can get

No dial *#0808#; select RNDIS - DM - Modem and apply
Install qpst on PC and their drivers;
Open Qpst config; add port, select diagnostic com port, then download EFS Professional
open it and click qualcomm nv tools, open it select com port and then connect,
go to third tab, tick IMEI(DEC) and write your given IMEI at the back of the lG Optimus G (found in your profile) and then click write and reboot

then you need to downgrade to 4.2.2 and do the step and when you got imei back flash 4.4.2
if you are on new bootloader download 4.4.2 bootloader put it in 4.2.2 rom and flash and do the step and flash 4.4.2 stock again

I've tried EFS Professional and my IMEI is fine, not damaged in any way. This is really strange.

It seems that your Radio Information has gone. Mine says a date, but try this: type in dial *#27663368378#
go to [1]UMTS then to common then to nv rebuild and select load default NV if that does not work go again to nv rebuild and select nv restore

Thanks, mate. But I've been impatient and left phone in Repair shop. I'll know the status during the evening. Will update later.
They've repaired it with box.

[Q] Can't access RNDIS + DM + MODEM. Codes don't work.

I am an owner of an unlocked I337M with Koodo. I have a custom rom, GPE 4.4.4 which is also rooted. In order to use Wind or Mobilicity (AWS , 1700), I must enable this function through various guides I've followed; however, I can not access this "Hidden Menu" for the USB Settings.
The only code which works is *#06# which shows my IME.
I have also turned ON the "Hidden Menu" script within the system using FX browser.
*#7284# - *#0808# - *#9090# and every other ones I have entered do not work. There are no menus popping up.
Is this because of my custom firmware? Are there newer codes for Android 4.4.4?

[Q] What is Cp logging enable/disable in recovery system?

Hello,
Could you tell me what does the cp logging enable/disable do in galaxy s5 recovery mode?
Not sure of it's primary function, but phone unlocking software uses it to bypass Lollipop restrictions as it opens another port to the phone
Allows you to use DM (diagnostic mode) in lollipop so that you can use DFS, CDMA Workshop, QPST, etc.
Dial one of the following to enable DM:
##DMMODE#
*#0808#

Add / Unlock LTE Bands to Moto E 2015 (XT1528)

Hi.
I bought the Verizon Moto E (2015) XT1528.
I am trying to get LTE work in the Philippines and LTE bands here are different from what Verizon has enabled.
I'd like to ask if anyone has been able to add/unlock other LTE bands like the guide in the link below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/how-to-add-rf-lte-frequency-bands-to-t2886059
I am having problems searching for the code the access the USB Settings menu (step 6 of the guide above):
"Open the USB settings screen on your phone. Change USB from AP to CP. And USB settings from MTP + ADB to RNDIS + DM + Modem mode (after you have finished making edits in your phone's memory, remember to revert the original settings in this screen).
This is the hardest part of this mod as the USB setting menu is usually hidden and the method to access it is slightly different on some brands. For the S5, you can open it by dialing *#0808# . Other phones may use *#7284# , *#8778# , *#*#8778#*#* , ##3424# or something else entirely. "
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

i9502 (S4 duos) enable CP logging / enable diag mode

Hello,
I barely post anything as there is a huge amount of documentation on this forum, but I am really stuck at this and have no clue how to solve it.
I have two i9502 phones:
- one with good IMEIs and thus, working GSM, but the sensors are not working (hardware failure - sensorhub test fail + all sensors from the *#0*# menu are dead)
- one with good sensors, but one of the IMEI is null, thus GSM is not working
I am tying to clone the one with good IMEIs over the one with bad IMEIs. I have previously done this with success, but for the S4 Active model (i9525).
To do this, I need to use QPST or EFS Professional (awesome software btw) with the phone running in diag mode.
When I enable "DM+Modem+ADB" from the *#0808# menu I get "USB device not recognized" on my PC, a problem usually resolved by "Enable CP logging" from the original recovery.
The problem with this model is that "Enable CP logging" option is missing from the recovery.
Also, codes like ##DMMODE# or ##DIAG# have no effect and there is no relevant option in the service menu (*#0011#) or diag config menu (*#9090#).
Things I've tried so far:
- directly backup/restore EFS partitions using TWRP or EFS Professional
result: fail, I had both IMEIs null.
reason: Encrypted File System partitions are encrypted using the phone's certificate/key. This means the EFS backup only makes sense for the original phone.
- downgrade to android 4.4.2
result: fail, recovery menus and secret menu codes behave exactly the same.
- flash a recovery from i9500 to get the "enable CP logging"
result: fail: when I enable the option, the phone restarts and PC still not recognizes the device. This was the closest I ever got to solve this.
- downgrade to android 4.3
result: fail, cannot flash, odin gives error and the phone says something like "firmware revision 2, phone revision 3" (incompatible hardware revisions?)
Does anyone know how to enable diag mode for this model?
Important to mention that I do not have any kind of service box.
Things I am thinking of trying:
- flash MIUI and see from there. I doubt a ported rom could do anything about this.
- cook android 4.3 using dsixda's Android Kitchen, and flash using a custom recovery. I doubt this will work also. Expecting a brick
Thanks.
You ever figure out how to do this?
