You hit UICC Unlock... There's your problem. There should be a setting in dev options to turn that off. If it is turned off, don't worry about it if your service still works fine.

Try changing the operator in build.prop to match the carrier your on, as well as changing the files in the apps folder. I have found that the changes to build.prop stick, even after a factory reset, but the changes in the carrier folder don't. Was able to get it working on t-mobile almost flawlessly. Just get a random system ui stopped working error. Also, it helps to enable LTE roaming in the ##DATA# menu, this enabled 4G for me.

I just changed mine to "OPEN" and enabled LTE and renamed all the Sprint bloatware and everything works perfectly on T-mobile!
Thank you!

It works. You just need to follow the directions on how to get it set up for ATT. Stick to a GB rom too as I'm not sure if you're able to edit APN settings in ICS.
Okay thanks what would u say would be best gb rom for battery and speed?

You could always just push a complete apns-conf.xml to /etc (in gb or ics) and it will be perm setup, even if you factory reset. There's one on code.google or docs.google, just search "complete apns-conf.xml" or take one from any att rom from an att android device.

I tried that without success on ICS before. Maybe permissions weren't setup? Who knows? I've got ICS running with data now after doing these changes without having to edit my APN settings.

Firmware for N900a?

I think I deleted something through root manager, but the just of it, is I need to re-install the firmware. I tried to go through Kies but it can detect my device for some reason. I think I deleted the Kies through root manager as well so it might be the issue.
Does anyone have the .tar file for this so I could flash via Odin? Just want to go back to new outta the box. Oh, I also tried factory reset through settings and also in recovery. Doesn't restore the files I'm missing.
Maybe I'm making this harder than it is and just need a few missing files I deleted by mistake. The only issues Im having is everytime I restart my phone I have to reset my live wallpaper and reset Swiftkey as my default keyboard. Maybe there is a fix for that and then I wont have to worry about the firmware?
There is no tar as of yet. And if you did the OTA to MJ5 you cant use the one click through De la Vega

Right now it is impossible to flash firmware of any kind to a 900A. The bootloader is locked and until somebody figures out a way to unlock it, it is impossible to flash any ROM/Firmware to this device.
I am rooted on the Root De La Vega so I must be on the correct firmware.

If you can open your build.prop in /system it will tell you the firmware version at the top.

It appears that you can just flash the MI9 firmware since you aren't running MJ5. Can someone verify this? That would save you from having to go through all of the apks.
All you would need to do is flash the Oneclick from this thread.

Used Safestrap to Restore and Wi-Fi won't turn on

When I go into settings to turn Wi-Fi on it looks almost greyed out. I can't turn it on or off. Any help would be awesome!

The way I did this was by going into restore in Safestrap and then picking the folder where the backup was located. Do you mean just do it twice? Why would that fix the problem?
Just open build.prop and change secure.storage=true to false. Then reboot and WiFi works fine.

[Q] Q: Set default GSM/WCDMA?

Is it possible to switch the Sprint HTC One to GSM/WCDMA by default?
I know it can be switched by dialing the *#*#4636#*#* and changing to GSM/WCDMA/LTE. And it will stay that way for as a long as the phone isn't reset.
But if I do a factory reset, it switches back the CDMA default.
Is there anyway to get it to stay on GSM even after a factory reset?
Thanks.

Pretty easy. With a file explorer (es file explorer or root explorer go to /system/buid.prop
Find the line ro.telephony.default_network and change the value to 3
Save
Factory reset if you want to try

If you using es file explorer you need to go to settings, root explorer and mount r/w. Make them all r/w. That way you can modify system files.

Ok.. I got it to save I think. It didn't give me any errors, so I assume it saved properly.
I am using Viper 5.0.0 and did the factory reset.
It rebooted and asked to select the language. After that it tries to do hands free activation and just keeps running that.. I can access emergency dialer, but nothing beyond that.
Gonna switch back the ARHD 31.6 and give that a run and see what happens

That's because you wanted to phone to be on GSM/WCMDA after restore. I don't know why Sprint did it, but if the phone is set on gsm during the first boot it gets stuck. You can either dial in emergency *#*#4636#*#*, or delete the htcsetupwizard.apk from /system/app

So if I make the edit in the buid.prop file and delete the htcsetupwizard.apk then the phone should remain in gsm mode even after the factory reset?

Yes, your phone is in gsm mode that's why iy got stuck in activation (sprint bug). You won't have setup wizard though

Still no luck with this method. Failed with Viper 5.0.0
running ARHD 31.6, doesn't get stuck at the activation screen, so I will run with that for now.
Thanks again.

[LG-H901] Stock .img Files (Boot, System, and Recovery)

These are stock .img files that we pulled once TWRP got booted. If you break something (like flashing TWRP incorrectly), you can use these to restore it.
boot.img - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5fMrmukgO0NcVdKYzczRFBBSlk/view?usp=sharing
recovery.img - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5fMrmukgO0NUTUtdXdVZTM5MGs/view?usp=sharing
system.img - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5fMrmukgO0NcTYxVHhkSkxfelk/view?usp=sharing
For a flashable zip of the img's: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v10/development/lg-h901-stock-images-device-restore-t3241170
If you're having trouble flashing system.img because of file size (you will). Move it to the /sdcard folder on your phone however you want (simply drag it over to storage), then in adb shell, "dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system" or simply use TWRP.
Flashing these would be the same as you would on the nexus right? I.e fastboot flash system system.img

Mine wouldn't flash it. So I was told to put the system.img in /sdcard, then adb shell (I did it while in TWRP), then "dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system" let it run. Reboot.

I lost a lot of system apps after unlocking my bootloader (still don't know how) including lg smart world and the one that enables screenshot in navigation bar. I was wondering if flashing the system img will restore them and would it relock my bootloader?

As you were resetting up the phone, lg should have showed you the list of uninstalled LG apps...it ALWAYS does, but I know it is easy to skip over them as well when setting the phone. There should be another way even after, will edit this post once I set up my phone again.
But to answer your main post, flashing the system.img wont bring it back because the phone will still see them as uninstalled. You just have to reinstall them from the lg app list

Cool sounds like you got it back up and running. I straight up deleted the bloats. My motto is, if it doesn't have an icon (i use rom toolbox pro) leave it alone. Lol.
