kyocera s1300 melo jax on virgin mobile ##...# codes

[bigsupersquid]

I've found these three ##...# codes work on my Virgin Mobile Jax (s1300 melo).

one comes with the phone manual... ##virgin# (##847446#), it opens the service programming menu.

another which works on several other phones is ##rtn# (##786#), it opens the factory reset/debug menu on this model.

the last i've found which works is ##meid# (##6343#), this displays the MEID in decimal and hex. The ##rtn# menus also will give this piece of info.

anyone got any more codes? or maybe a connector pinout? usb drivers?
post 'em here! i'll try 'em out. my jax is about to drop off my service plan due to a phone upgrade, and it's not worth selling when a new one is under $10, so i'll be more than happy to risk bricking it.
i've wanted to hack custom wallpaper, ringtones, and software into this thing since i got it but VM has all but their own OTA downloads locked out (and they don't offer jack for the jax anyway.) therefore i need a pinout to make a serial cable or a usb driver, when/if i get such a thing to work i'll post a process for it here on HoFo.

I heard my phone come on by itself while it was in my pocket and I heard a few button presses I think, it's been so long in this FTM Mode that I don't remember. I'm guessing a few buttons were pressing up against something in my pocket together or maybe sequentially when it powered on. Now, all I see is the words in black letters "FTM Mode" on a solid red background after the "hello" splash screen appears. Pressing any of the keys shows a white rectangular block on screen that stays lit which roughly corresponds to the key's physical location on the keypad. Once all the keys are pressed the screen switches to a grayscale pattern of objects. Holding the # key erases all the white blocks and can also return the grayscale screen back to the FTM Mode screen. I'm hoping there is a key combination that can be used when powering on the phone that can return it to its normal state.

I tried some of the ## key combos after the phone was already on and in the FTM Mode but nothing happened but what I already described above.

Please help!

There is NO SPC or MSL code for this phone which is the Kyocera Melo / Kyocera Jax on Virgin Wireless (also known as Assurance Wireless). This has been the case for almost two years now. Different forums are suggesting many solutions, but not one of them work. Not even the CDMA workshop or SPC calculator.

Most of these SPC "calculators" do not list Virgin Mobile as a provider (and no, you cannot select Sprint instead). There are online paid unlocking services for this phone, but not for Virgin Mobile. The USB drivers for these phones are absolutely useless because the usb data port is disabled by Virgin Mobile before you get the phone and there is no way to change this. It is impossible. The company will tell you to send the phone in if something is wrong with it rather then give you an SPC code because they know the first thing people are gonna do with it. They don't wanna lose money from selling their high priced ringtones and wallpaper BY allowing customers to download free stuff over internet and transfer them to the phone with the usb cord...To Sum It Up (that's why they disabled the PC connection feature of these two phones and they will never give out the SPC code or the algorithm used to generate the SPC on your own).

Once again, if you have a Kyocera Jax OR Kyocera Melo and your phone uses Virgin Mobile OR Assurance Wireless phone service,
then there is nowhere you can go ... in person or online that can get your phone unlocked. It's hopeless.

on the kyocera duramax if you enter ##DEBUG# or ##33284# you get a screen to enter a 6 digit number
to get to the next screen. I have tried 111111, 000000, 123456, MSL, last 6 of ESN. still not able to get to next screen, any one know what the code might be? or how to put phone in to trace mode?
thanks
