[Q] *#*#4636#*#* - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi friends,
i was playing around with the title code of this topic.
After entering *#*#4636#*#* in my x10,i selected phone information,pressed the physical menu key on left of phone,than clicked "select radio band". In that there was only option under the "set gsm/umts band" which read "usa band".
I selected that and instantly lost network signal. I live in india and the phone is of usa at&t unlocked.
Now i am not getting signal. I tried to press the menu key again but it reads "usa band only". Tried to manully select network,but no luck.
Finally i also did factory reset,wiped cache partition,reflashed my wolfbreak rom ,but could nt get signal.
What else can i try?

is there any one who can help?

IS there anyway to rollback to original/default settings/bands?

any chance that there is a restore, or similar button inside that menu? Have you checked this?

Okay, here's the fix - I found this out because I did EXACTLY THE SAME (curiosity killed this particular cat!!) and PRESD BUTAN (USA Band) without thinking, on my Japanese X10 (SO-01B), which, as you did, set my phone to the wrong band for Japan. Duh!
Anyway on to the fix...
1) Bring up the service menu with *#*#4636#*#* at the phone dialer
2) Select Phone Information menu
3) Switch the phone to FLIGHT/AIRPLANE MODE (I did this by dragging down the top menu bar on my phone which is running a custom rom)
4) Press the menu key and SELECT RADIO BAND - you'll see the complete list of country bands - do NOT select a band yet....
5) Switch FLIGHT/AIRPLANE MODE OFF
6) Select the country Band you require - you should now see a success message.
7) Congratulations on getting your cellphone signal back
Regards!

hi, does erasing the modemst mess with the phone's communication functionalities? some forums are reporting problems after erasing the modemst (http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/sim-status-erasing-modemst-t3160579) but it was on a different device. I'm on lenovo zuk z1, and having the same problem. I would like to try this solution out if it does not mess with the communication functions.

Serius Network problem --> Solution Needed

I live in greece and have a vodafone sim.The phone is unlocked and worked perfectly.
Today i tried to put another sim and it didn'y read it so i tried to change the band (to 1900 from 900) nothing happened.
So I wanted to restore the band but then i realised that i couldn't access the band tab because it wasn't there.
There are no phone settings to change
I tried a hard-reset but nothing changed
Now every time i try to reinstall the T-mobile ROM 4.00.21 i get an error message telling me something about the connection while the same time activesync is on.I put the rom in the SD card but nothing appears.
I'm depressed and don't know what to do
Is there a way to change the band to 900
If not how can i install the same ROM or an older one.
I'm crying for help
Please help!!
1)In case i forgot now it has 1900 band selected
2)when i open thephne it says something to turn on the wireless radio and prompts me to enter a code i think what do i do there
Other times the phone wont open at all
Use the GSM band selector from the boot loader GSM menu
Could you please tell me the steps to do that.
I'm not very experienced with these thing.
The more you analyze the easier for me.
to get into the bootloader
you softreset the device while holding
down the power button
i got in the bootloader then...
IT says :
WALLABY Bootloader V5.15
GSM OK
By pressing action :
GSM TURN ON
already on reset
???

[Q] Radio band selection

Hiya.
The other week I fiddled around in settings on my Xperia Z1 (C6903). I was wondering about how priority of bands would look now when I got LTE too. So, I entered the well famous *#*# 4636#*#*, then "Phone Info", and had a look around. I opened the menu in there, then clicked "Select Radio Band". There's only one available, "USA Band", and I pressed it to check if something else appeared the second time around. It did not. Because the bands (frequencies) used in Scandinavia differ greatly from USA I lost coverage completely. Damn.....
I googled around a bit and there's not much information. Of course I could factory reset the phone, but I didn't want to really. One thread recommended reflashing baseband/modem. I erased data from com.android.settings, com.android.phone among a few others and did a reflash of baseband around that same time. Phone is working again, but I'm almost sure it's not fully back to normal. Loosing signal more easily now than I have before. I suspect I'm missing a frequency or something.
Anybody know where this setting is saved? Is it just com.android.phone? I can factory reset, but I much rather prefer to find out where it's saved. Somebody else might find it useful in the future perhaps?
Hej,
Sorry to reply to such an old message, but I just ran into the same problem. I clicked the "USA Band" expecting a list to show up. It didn't, and the USA Band was selected immediately. I no longer had a cellular connection.
Based on your suggestions, I solved it by issuing the following commands:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot reboot
My cellular connection is back.
(OT: Now back to the problem that brought me in the *#*#4636#*#* in the first place: WiFi connected, no internet.)

Phone menu in, Network Out !

Hi,
Following a tips in an android newsblog (In France), i was visiting the *#*#4636#*#* menu.
By curiosity, I tap on the menu "Sélectionner une bande radio" (choose a baseband).
I've only a "United States" choice but after did nothing. I lose all my phone network.
Just the data work and the sms.
What can I do to this ?
I think to flash a baseband firmware but where can I find one ?
Thanks for everyone who could save my phone

Switch your radio band back to automatic? Go to *#*#4636#*#* and click the overview (3 dots) at the top right. Hit select radio band, then hit automatic. Reboot phone.
Thanks but no auto option for me :/
I've done a Factory reset but no change.

I try to put network in Only 3G or 2G and got nothing. Maybe that's why there's no call but sms and data. No VoLTE in France.
When selecting United States band (that I didn't want to do), i break the 3G and 2G connection.
Hi,
I've speak with the Motorola support in France.
In the hidden menu, i've selected the united states band so now I only received the LTE (the only which are the same than here). No 3G and no 2G.
And because We've got no VoLTE, I can't use calls.
And no method to revert this process.
Go in warranty...
Actually there should be a way, because I have the selection:
Automatic
Europe
Automatic
United States
You probably have to update to a current stock ROM so the modem firmware updates and you might be able to select a different baseband... all theory but if you still have the phone, it's worth a try.
edit: I'm using a custom ROM, so I may be wrong.
For you there is no way of using a custom ROM without having problems with warranty.
If still relevant, I made the same mistake with my stock Moto xt1650-03 and the only way managed to restore signal was by using fastboot erase modemst commands. Though I have seen people not recommending this method, it worked for me.

How to Reset Radio Cell settings / Force enabling SIMs after messing with Bands ?

Hi everyone,
First post on XDA after years looking for solutions for my smartphones here.
I was playing a bit with my Archos 50 Diamond (dual-sim, 2015), in order to use it as my main phone, as my current one is slowly dying. I purchased a new touchscreen I replaced myself as the former one was broken, and tried to put my SIM inside. No signal.
I tried a factory reset. Still no signal. SIM was detected, asked for PIN, but no signal. After searching in several forums, I managed to arrive on Radio Info settings. (code through dialer is *#*#46363#*#*, anyway I cannot access any code through the dialer, don't know why, so I arrive there using an app downloaded on Play Store)
As I was playing around, I chose "Choose Radio Band" and selected USA Band. Big mistake. All frequency were gone (GSM, LTE) and the "prefered network" option is stuck on "WCDMA only". Of course, I live in France, we use GSM/LTE frequencies, so no signal.
Moreover, the "Turn Radio on" button doesn't affect the radio cells.
After a few factory resets, I already tried the following :
- erasing modemst1 and modemst2, through fastboot. It resulted only in erasing IMEI, great. I restored IMEI through "IMEI changer.exe" I found on the web. Both IMEIs came back.
- enabling all necessary bands through CDMAtool (or Qualcomm QSPT/QXDM tools, it's the same process, using Android Diagnostic Mode) - All GSM/LTE bands will appear on the smartphone using an app like "Network Signal Guru". After that, I can change "prefered network" in "Radio Info menu", so this is better that stuck on "WCDMA prefered". But the SIM is now undetected, no PIN is asked, so I cannot even verify if signal is back.
- Adb shell su -c "radiooptions [arguments from 0 to 8, 0 resets, 5 turns on)" _ using option 5 will actually turn Radio on, but no effect on if the SIM is detected or not. By the way, it turns radio cell for 1st SIM, but not for 2nd (we can see it in "About Phone, State" in phone settings)
- Tried to edit build.prop in order to see what I can do, but I couldn't see no effects either.
- Tried to flash NON-HLOS.bin, but didn't help either. I couldn't find fsg file inside my factory firmware image zip.
So for now, I know how to enable bands I need with CDMAtools, and turning on/off radio cell through adb shell or Terminal Emulator. However Radio Cell will turn off automatically on every reboot, need to turn on manually everytime I boot.
But SIM is not detected at all. I'm not sure if there would be some signal if SIM was detected, but it would be great if I could figure it at least.
Phone is rooted, STOCK firmware Android 4.4, no existing custom ROM, can boot into CMW if needed.
I've tried a lot of tutorials, I don't even remember which ones I did or not, but I'm pretty sure I couldn't find solutions on XDA or stackexchange at this moment.
If you can help, thanks in advance
Cheers
Samuel
