Hello,

I have been trying to activate my new phone on ring plus. It is an LG LS991. I am on the ZV6 firmware. I have done a device swap and have been in contact with Ringplus. They said that everything that is OK on their end and my phone will not provision. I tried to enter ##MSL# and nothing happens. I do not see an edit menu. I am entering my actual MSL code just to clarify that. Is there a way to get a hidden menu on the G4 that will allow me to edit the MDN & MIN numbers?

Thanks!!!

did you happen to modify your carrier folder from the sim unlock mod? Changing the permission of node.db and node.db-journal to all read write execute fixed the provision issue for me.

Any head way on this? How can you access the service menu to edit the MDN and MSID?

Thanks

I'm having the same problem. Can't get this G4 to work on old Sprint SERO - ESN is right but I can't update MIN or MDN any way I try. Anyone figure this out and could help?
thanks

You can try the hidden menu apk I listed in the gsm unlock page it might get you in to help

Yeah, I had tried that. But it doesn't seem that any of the information will save properly; after a reboot, it still does not give me the right MDN. That is with or without the sim card. With the sim card ii, it gives me the last four of the cards ICCID as the phone number with 000-000-XXXX. Not sure if G4 just will not work b/c I don't have a SIM programmed (it is just an unused sprint sim)? But my sero plan is 3g only, really don't need the lte stuff or sim at all. Without sim card I just get MDN and phone number as 'unknown'.

I think this is probably easier with boost or another carrier; curious if ANYONE has ever activated a g4 on SERO basic?
