HTC One M8

Obsy, I was wondering if the same would work with my phone. I have the Verizon variant of the HTC one m8 and cannot edit apns. Based on your guide, I tried going into titanium backup and uninstalled Qualcomm but still no luck. Do you know if there is more that needs uninstalled for this to work or is it just that. Furthermore, do you know of a proven way to edit alms on my phone? I've read numerous forums and viewed several videos but haven't found a solution or one that deals specifically with my phone. Also for reference I have android 4.4.4. Any help or guidance is greatly appreciated as I just bought this phone and need mms for work. Thank you.

Im going to south korea soon and was trying to unlock the apn, i managed to root it, havent gotten a custom recovery to work yet, but with my verizon sim card in as soon as i disable com.qualcomm.qcrilmsgtunnel, i cannot make phone calls or texts until i re-enable it.

In what country u live and what Network operator u are? (u didn´t complete ur profile)
I see 2 situations:
1. U are on Verizon network and the SIM card and phone services are dependent by com.qualcomm.qcrilmsgtunnel
2. U are on different network and when you put Verizon SIM u don´t have signal so u can´t make phone calls...

Anyway, I saw (on different users on forums) Kyocera Brigadier used in many countries on different networks operators so idk why shoudn´t work in South Korea (on GSM network, not CDMA)...

Will it work for 3G in Spain?

This guide it will show how to change APN on Kyocera Brigadier and get rid of Verizon Bloatware.
This is for those who use Brigadier in other network (country ) than Verizon USA.
This tutorial is for Windows only. (because drivers and Debloater software)

1. Go to Settings then scroll down to "About phone" and then down to "Build number". Click on the item 7 times in a row. This will say Now you are a Developer.
2 Open the "Developer Options" and mark "USB debugging".
3. First make sure you have installed correctly the drivers for Kyocera Brigadier and your computer sees properly the phone.
You can install drivers from here
4. Connect the phone and select Media Sync Mode. (now the computer must see your E6782). Cancel the installation of Verizon software.
5. Go here to download and install Debloater. (skip warnings of your windows or antivirus)
6. Open Debloater (your phone still connected to computer) (make sure the phone is connected before open Debloater)
7. In up left corner you have "Read Device Packages" - press it, (t will read the processes of your phone)
8. Check the apps (first column) or processes (second column) that you don´t want to use.
Search for qualcomm and check qcrilmsgtunnel.apk alias com.qualcomm.qcrilmsgtunnel (this is what block the editing of APN)
I checked all Amazon, Nhl, all Verizon except VZWService (it will mess the programmable button and every time you open the phone it will ask for program it)
9. When you finish to mark click Apply and wait for Debloater block all services.
10. Disconnect your phone and go to Settings > More > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names and you will see in right corner a plus. Click it and introduce your Network provider settings and save.
Usually on name put whatever you want, on APN put net and APN type put default but you can check on provider's website for manual settings.
11. Check on mobile data, close Wi-Fi and verify if you have mobile internet.
12. Restart the phone and then go back and verify if you can edit again APN. (if not, repeat steps 6-10)

GOOD LUCK!
Hi, I live in Spain and was wondering if this will work to allow the phone to use my 3G Orange sim card as I'm a bit sceptic about if it will work or not.
Thanks

To respond both of you, I was in Spain few weeks ago and I had 3G voice and data on Orange network. So in Spain, Greece, Romania, Germany and those other countries the internet should work well if you make the right settings.

Select Runtime for Debloater to recognize phone

Hi Everyone!

I had no luck getting Debloater or Root Genius to recognize my Kyocera Brigadier to unlock it until I started messing around with other tabs in the developer options. Nothing would work, even with the Kyocera drivers installed on my computer, different USB cables, different ports, uninstalling and reinstalling software, etc. etc.

UNTIL, I found an option in the Developer Options menu called "Select runtime". Mine was set to "Use Dalvik", but on a whim, I set it to "Use ART". I then reset the phone, and low-and-behold, it installed various software updates (which took about 25 minutes) and both Debloater AND Root Genius work great! I was then able to unlock the phone based on the instructions provided by Obsy. The phone appears to be otherwise unaffected by this runtime change.

Hope this helps those of us who have been having connectivity problems.

Outgoing call/text do not work

I have a rooted Kyocera Brigadier and a T-Mobile plan. The trick to unlock APN settings worked pretty well (I've used kingroot instead of debloater), but I have an issue already related by some users. Data (4G LTE) is now blazing fast and I can receive call and text messages. However, I can't make outgoing call/text. Below are some details:

Outgoing call: The phone application continuously indicates "CALLING..." but it is stuck there. If this is the first call after a reboot I also have the message "Error while searching for network". Then, I try to tap the "End Call" button but that do not close the phone app. The only way to unfreeze the app is to wait for an incoming call.

Outgoing text message: I systematically get the Error "Cause Code 0"

A factory reset do not solve the issue.
I would be very gratefull if a pro could help me.

[EDIT] I've created a dedicated thread for that issue for better visibility and archiving. Please, post there if you have inputs.

1. Downloading Android_SDK.
2. Extract Android_SDK.zip the root of drive C: \ (out so C: \ Android_SDK).
3. Downloading of the file header TWRP-recovery, and we put it in a folder with Android_SDK.
4. Downloading my way TWRP-backup, razarhiviruem on the memory card which is then inserted into the phone.
5. Connect powered handset to PC (do not forget to check the adb drivers in Device Manager on the PC and the included USB debugging mode in your phone).
6. Go to the folder Android-SDK and open a Command Prompt window.
7. Check the connection of the team (each team is confirmed by pressing Enter):
adb devices
If everything is OK, it must return the serial number of the phone.
8. Reboot your phone into fastboot-mode command:
adb reboot-bootloader
9. To download TWRP-recovery to your phone, enter the command
fastboot boot twrp_kyocera_e6782_v004.img
10. It is advisable at this stage to make a backup of your firmware by selecting the appropriate TWRP-recovery team.
11. Now you can update your phone by selecting the firmware restoration from backup, and specify a folder
which it was unzipped my backup.
12. Reboot your phone and look at firmware version of the phone.

To update the modem to do the following (similar to Hydro Elite):
Perform 5-8, to connect your phone to the PC in fastboot-mode.
9. Downloading a file modem.7z and razarhiviruem it to your Android_SDK.
10. Enter the command
fastboot devices
and looking back she serial number.
11. Now enter the command
fastboot flash modem modem.img
12. Reboot your phone and check the firmware version of your phone and modem.

Hotspot problem

Hello,
I used Debloater as you instructed and it worked like a charm for changing the APN settings on the Brigadier.Thank you for that info.The only problem i am having is with the hotspot not working.When i try to turn it on,it gives me an error of : Couldn't run a subscription check,connect to the internet & try again. Also,with the Debloater software,can i check all of the lines that have Verizon in the name,both in the apk and the section to the right?(Except the one that says VZWService,as was stated earlier?).If worse comes to worse,if i root the phone with the Kingroot app i have read about,would i be able to bypass the phone's regular hotspot ,and download a 3rd party app such as barnacle hotspot/tether,that would work instead?I know it's a lot of questions,but i figured i would ask all of them at once to the experts.Thanks in advance.

4 Release all buttons and quickly press the Volume Down
