Bypass lock code? - Essential Phone Questions & Answers

So I sold this phone on swappa fully functional and the buyer managed to get some kind of lock code on the device and returned it. Anyway how do I fix this since I can't even get to settings or anything without this code? It's not a FRP, it boots to the lockscreen but when you unlock instead of going home it goes to this screen where it asks for a code. What do I do?

Does it show how many digits it's asking for? Is it sprint variant or open market?

Sprint variant and no it doesn't show the number of digits so I have no idea on that.

Is there a non sprint sim in it? It might be networked locked now via the customer messing around.

I kind of do think it is asking for a netowork unlock code most likely. However, I don't really know how to bypass it because I can't get to the settings to enable USB debugging or anything.

I would suggest trying the Back to Stock zips on it because it wipes everything and see if that works. You can also try and load TWRP and use it to delete the lock screen password files and then flash the boot image so it boots normally and then you should be able to swipe to dismiss the lock screen. Hope this helps you out

I believe in fastboot mode you don't need usb debugging. In fastboot is where the network unlocking happens.

Phone permanently locked to AT&T and need help!

I stupidly wrote down the wrong sim unlock code given to me by ATT on my phone and I guess I entered the wrong code too many times. I called ATT tech support and they said that my phone is locked permanently ATT now.
Is there a fix around this or am I screwed?
Thx

As far as I know, you are SOL and is locked permanently to ATT, unless theres a way to unlock it via the service menu after a code has been inputted wrong.
Go to Cellunlocker.net and talk to someone in support about getting a code that unlocks your sim-locked status. It's not the code to unlock your phone, it's the code that resets the perma-lock state of the phone.
I guess i am SOL i called cell unlocker and they said they dint have the software to do it
Did you try the method listed for unlocking your phone from the service menus - without an unlock code?
I have not seen it explained, but it appears to me that by disabling the SHA256 network lock, you are basically getting rid of the requirement for the unlock code that is cryptographically dependent on the IMEI.
I did it on my AT&T phone and plopped in a T-mo sim and it worked fine:

You might have one other option that I know of that might work, might not work, or might make things worse. It is the "Free unlock" menu method in the general section. I am assuming you haven't tried it already. Normally I tell people to stay clear of it because of the slim chance it could screw your phone up, but in your case, I'd say it's already screwed up.
Follow the directions and see if restoring your "Golden backup" (NV restore) resets the cell locks on your phone. You can also try thing like turning SHA256 "On", or "Off" and see if it makes a difference. The reason the free unlock method works for some and not others all depends on what info resides in your phones NV backup. For some, it restores full phone functionality without network locks (sim unlocked), for others, it restores exactly what is already on the phone's NV memory (still network locked), and for others, it restores a backup that screws the phone up. There is a slim possibility that if you restore the NV data via the hidden menu, you might restore your phones original sim locked state and then be able to use the code with SHA256ON or maybe Off.
The risk you take if you try it is completely yours.
It might help, it might not help, or it could make it worse. Good luck.
Would flashing back to stock rom work? I am still fairly new with android devices coming from iphones so i dont want to mess with it if it has absolutely no chance of working. The phone is still working fine just can't unlock it.
Thx for the suggestions tho

Flashing back to stock is not going to cure your problem. You're kind of hosed at this point. Scott's suggestion is probably your best bet, BUT you could end up with no phone working at all. If you can still get phone service I'd leave it as is and give up ever unlocking.

Cricket Idol 4 (6055U) bootloader-- easy unlocking?

I just bought this phone from Cricket, and the first thing I do is unlock the dev menu and look at dev options. Imagine my surprise when I see an option to unlock the bootloader! YMMV: select on, enter your pattern/password (if needed), then accept the terms. When I get back to my computer I'll see what kind of trouble I can cause...

We would have to figure out how to back up the original recovery. You could also try the fastboot boot command. That's pretty much a sure way to boot a recovery without messing things up but it has to be in .IMG format to try it.
By any chance has anyone tried the root permission setting found in engineering mode under settings? Dial *#*#2637643#*#* in your dialer to access it

i am more than willing to give you an assist if you still desire, but you will have to clarify exactly what you did. If English is not your first language, accept my apologies, but I cannot understand you.
flashing a different ROM/carrier unlock/hidden menu stuff are all differing subjects, with differing routes to completion.

yes i am still looking for a solution, i would appreciate your help
what i did is that i bought a service on eBay, he emailed me an apk called Quick_Fix.apk ( to show the hidden menu ) and these are the instructions
Look for the HiddenMenuCall app on your phone and open it, then scroll and select the following menus & sub menus within:
1-IOT(CDG2).
2-LTE setting
3-Operation Mode.
4-Lab Network (V20 will now restart)
Then Turn Off - Insert SIM card and restart and it will be unlocked
that is all i did, and it was supposed to work but it didn't on mine
I see. So you are trying to pull up a hidden menu on your v20?
What setting are you trying to alter? Wireless tethering? Are you rooted (I am going to take a stab here and say no, you arent)?
Are you trying to carrier unlock your phone? I'm just trying to figure out what you are trying to accomplish?

1- i went to IOT(CDG2).
2-then LTE setting
3-then Operation Mode.
4-i changed it to Lab Network

[Guide] How to get your MSL code

Alright so I was bored and started poking around trying to find a way to get the MSL. Well after a couple hours of trail and error, I got it! Here's how.
You will need: ADB, ADB Drivers, and a rooted device.
Plug in your phone into your computer.
Run the following (in CMD) :
1: adb shell
2: su
3: am start com.sec.hiddenmenu/.Program_Edit
It should open a menu with your MSL at the bottom. Hope this helped!
I have tested this on Android 5.0.1 and Android 6.0.

Sim unlock? No but look through the forums. Also look on the sprint s6 forums too... If your contract is up just do a UUIC unlock under system update. That should sim unlock your phone.

Hey @Poebat, how do we do the UUIC unlock under system update? Every time I press it I get the hands free activation window popping up. I bought this SM-G900P used and unlocked from a Canadian retailer to use here in Canada. I worked fine with my Canadian carrier sim card until I did a factory reset and now it's apparently relocked. I called Sprint and they said there is a region lock on the phone (after giving them the IMEI number) and refuse to help or unlock the phone again unless I set up a Sprint account...
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I would take it to your carrier and ask them to unlock it. After that I would create a TWRP backup just in case.
As for the UUIC lock, you need to have the phone activated on sprint unfortunately.

Enable OEM Unlocking/Debloat Script for Tmobile/Sprint

all you have to do is extract the zip file, make sure your phone has adb debugging enabled, plug it into the computer, and run the script and it will debloat your phone and enable you to slide the oem unlocking toggle in developer options that was previously greyed out
********WARNING*********
this script will remove the keyboard app from your phone leaving you without a way to type, i dont know which exact package it is but you can always look them up and just remove that line from the script. otherwise make sure you have a usb-otg cable and keyboard to use or a program like Vysor/scrcpy or you wont be able to type. just reinstall gboard or whatever other keyboard you use and it will be fine

Just getting the unlock token from Oneplus. Successfully flash and unlocked bootloader. Is it have any way to unlock network?
Update:
Have been flash global rom 10.5.7 and the update to beta global rom, network still locked.
Fastboot erase modemst1 and modemst2 also can't unlock network.
Hey does this mean what I think it means. Can you unlock a bootloader and convert to global if your phone is network locked? Can someone explain how I can unlock bootloader after enabling oem unlocking?
Yes, can covert to Global but sim remain locked.
Follow this link to covert.
Thank you. I went ahead to start the process and the oem unlock switch worked after some trouble having my pc recognize my phone in fastboot. Submitted it through oneplus and waiting on an unlock token. OP has my thanks for creating this script. Been waiting for this since I got the device. Surprised there isn't more interaction on this thread.

As I done before if you have wipe all data and start your phone without sign in google account it wont work. You need to sign in a google account then run the script.

Anyone know what actually locks the sim slot? And how can it persist even on Global rom? On Tmo devices there is a "Device Unlock" app that gets deleted after you sim unlock the phone by carrier.
But global rom doesn't have the proprietary unlock app, so what is actually keeping it locked? Does the modem have the locking instructions in it?
Yes, something like that which is impossible to remove.

The previous OP devices it was possible after flashing Int. rom.
Question is where/how did they place the restrictions now. It had something to do with the modem after the t-mo app unlocks the phone.
But I don't think backing up and restoring a modem from an unlocked OP8 and flash it to locked OP8 will work as intended anymore.
I guess no one cared enough to reverse engineer this again

Have been flash global rom 10.5.7 and the update to beta global rom, network still locked.
Fastboot erase modemst1 and modemst2 also can't unlock network.

Yeah mine looks the same. Did you flash it from your computer or flashed from your device's storage?
