[Q] How to activate PERSO SHA256 OFF menu?

[jommyme]

Hello There.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini model GT-I9195 (rooted)
Android Version 4.2.2
Baseband Version I9195XXUBML4
Kernel Version 3.4.0-2340422 [email protected] #1

Does anyone knows how to activate PERSO SHA256 OFF on the sub menu Network Unlock? Because i can only access one option in this menu 1. PERSO SHA256 INFO .

No ON or OFF option.

Thanks

Some Useful Examples


Example-1: Removing SIM network lock

[SIZE=2]UMTS MAIN MENU[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2][1] DEBUG SCREEN.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2][6] PHONE CONTROL.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2][6] NETWORK LOCK[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2][3] PERSO SHA256 OFF[/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]Go Back to Main Menu[/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]UMTS MAIN MENU[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2][6] COMMON[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2][6] NV REBUILD.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2][4] Restore Back-up.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]Reboot[/SIZE]

This has not been tested by me, since I don't use SIM locked providers.

So make sure you have a complete NANDroid backup of your phone in case something
goes wrong. I do not take any responsibility for damaged phone due to this procedure.

Please confirm if this method works for this phone.

Did you carefully read the entire other thread? Did you see that perhaps there are other "things" you need to do to get to certain menu items... You need to post more detailed info about your device as well. "getprop" and "uname -a" output for example.

Hi EVA yes i red the entire thread, and the "things" i did to try to get to certain menu items was.

1. Unblock the KeyString file with:
echo -n "OFF" > /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
2. Enable the carrier HiddenMenu file with:
echo -n "ON" >/efs/carrier/HiddenMenu


What do you thing i Should try next ?

Thank you

This is my getprop !

Hmm, no idea. Your device seem close to identical to mine, except for your being MEO. Did you try this with a different SIM? Is it rooted with SELinux "getenforce" set to Permissive?

Perhaps someone else can help.
I never buy locked phones, so I have no idea how to deal with those issues.
Perhaps connecting using QPST and remove lock. There are probably other easier to use tools out there, but they have some steep learning curve for non-developer or Android skilled people. Continue Google is my only good suggestion, or take it back to shop and say you're going abroad and need an unlocked SIM/phone whatever.

Good luck.

Thanks for the Help @E:V:A

Yes i tried withe a different SIM, still get the unlock code request. When i type sestatus commands i get nothing, but when i type Getenforce i get Enforcing. And i dont know how to change it to Permissive.

Is it easy to use QPST to unlock?

As for the shop they wanna charge me 80 Dollars to unlock...

Btw do you think if i change the MODEM i can unlock it? where is the information about locking sim is? on the firmware modem?

Google is my best friend but im getting out of options.

Thanks once more.

PERSOSHA256 OFF

C'mon guys someone has to know this. Its a really annoying issue. Theyre really trying to make it difficult to access menus now. NO BUENO!

 

[bigjailerman]

Correcto, $$$ no Buena. I cannot add plan minutes and days through my carrier in Colombia. It just gives McGee that annoying msg..No mom etc etc. The only way to do it is remove the SIM card, out it in my other phone, buy the data package and swap cards back. O.k. to oh that the USSD codes can't be used. It sucks tio almost get to the tio of the mountain but you can't summit bananas they built a wall around it

I know this is a long dead thread, but here is the super simple answer:

Flash MDL ROM
AND
MDL BASEBAND
Now the menu items you seek will be visible.

and before someone asks: No it does not matter what bootloader/baseband/rom you are running before starting this.
nandroid backup
restore when done
odin newest radio back.
