I know I'm a noob, but I've been struggleing with this for a while now. I put in probibly 6 hours last night and haven't any clue if I'm even close to being complete.
I bought an HTC Touch MP6900SP (Sprint) and was told it had a clean ESN. Turns out it didn't and I'm up the creek because I paid cash. I bought it to replace my motor razr which has a clean ESN, but is quickly dieing. I'm trying to clone my ESN but can't get mtty to work properly. Once the ESN is swapped, the RAZR will go in my junk drawr.
I've tried to follow the steps here:
http://www.mobile-files.com/forum/showpost.php?p=355768&postcount=1
but when I go to fire up mtty I can only enter the rtask a command then the program or phone won't allow me to do anything else, even type the next command.
In the boot loader I have the following info:
VOGU100 MFG
SPL-2.31.CoKe
CPLD-3
Can someone please walk a noob through this. I'm totally new to this whole unlocking thing and could really use some help. The phone is locked to the account of the previous seller who refuses to release it. I've got the 2.31.coke on there now and when I boot it normally I also have the Alltel rom that fires up. HELP!!! PLEASE!
Edit: In MTTY when I run rtask a this is what I see, but I can't type anything after that.
rtask a
Enter Radio Bootloader
POWER ON PMIC VREG_USB : SUCCESS!
This has been covered...
SEARCH!!! MTTY is actually working, you just can't see the text you are typing... Just be careful typing everything in and you will be good to go...
Alright, I got through MTTY, and am not onto working in CDMA workshop.
I put the phone into DM mode, Active sync disconnects, but CDMA shows it is connected to Com1 port successfully, but fails when I attempt to read the ESN.
I can't seem to find the diagnostic modem drivers that I need and think the lack of the drivers is what is causing me grief now.
Believe me, I'm looking everywhere I can to get information. I've got tons of hours into this now.
Edit: Got the drivers installed and working properly. Still having problems reading from the phone with CDMA.
Edit 2: Had to figure out the proper com port in CDMA, getting warmer.
scanning and finding esn addresses right now! If this thing works I'll be so damn happy!
im still reading up on this, but seeing information that has been corrected over time, then finding some old posts that may be outdated.
using MTTY with all of the steps to superCID... is that actually changing the ESN in one failed, fast swoop? Is it actually doing what CDMA does when scanning/writing?

Hey did you get this to work? I changed my esn last night and the phone works. Can make and receive calls. Only prob is that I can't connect to the internet. I think it is a problem with the user name/password but not sure. I keep getting the 67 error when trying to connect. I only changed the esn and nothing else.
Did you have any luck? If so what about the internet thing? Any help would be much appreciated. Been reading and trying to figure this out for a while now.
Thanks,

Thanks for the reply. No I had not tried the DCD carrier cab. First of all let me get this out of the way. NOOB here.
I tried researching the DCD cab because someone else suggested it and then tried it and it didn't work. I think it might be something with the user name and password for vision service. This is what I did:
Flashed the Touch (it is a sprint touch) to the 6.1 wm latest rom (sprint). Then did the esn swap from my razr (also sprint). After the esn swap I flashed again using the 6.1 sprint rom (just wanted to make sure nothing changed after I did a rom flash). Phone works fine on sprint and I even called them on it and they think it is a razr. I can make and receive calls, voicemail etc. Just can't get the internet working. Just get the 67 error. Any ideas?

Yea I have the old sero plan. It includes unlimited data. I think that is what you mean. I can run opera on it so it is working.

This might be trivial but lets check.
Goto:
Settings/Connections/Connections/Advanced/Select Networks
It should show Sprint in top and Work network in bottom.
Click edit under Sprint and make sure its set to #777
Then try this:
Settings/Personal/Phone/Services/Internet/Get settings
Then have IOTA done by pressing start.
No Internet Still......

Thanks Csquared. I tried this and this is what I got. I also have posted this at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3413006#post3413006 . Not trying to double post but was getting some help over there also.
Phone is working great using the donor ESN but no internet. Here is what I've got:
- Sprint Razr (donor ESN phone) and Sprint Touch (Had bad ESN now has Razr ESN).
- Have Data plan on my Account.
- Did the changes from the original post and phone works fine (can make and receive calls)
- When I try and connect to the internet it gives me error 67, can not connect #777 and 1012 error.
What I have tried:
- Start/settings/services/internet/get settings/ and start IOTA.
- Tried making a new connection under start/settings/connections/connections and setup a new #777 connection.
- Changed Active Profile from 0 to 1 in ##3282#
None of this worked. Under ##3282# my settings are:
User Name:
Active Profile - 1
MIP_MODE - Mobile IP Only
User Name - (My Username)@sprintpcs.com
SPI MN-HA - 4D2
SPI MN-AAA - 4D2
ReverseTunnel Pref - Enable
Home Agent IP Address - 0.0.0.0 (for some reason it will not let me edit this setting)
Primary Home Agent - 0.0.0.0
Second Home Agent - 0.0.0.0
HA Shared Secret (HEX) – Blank
AAA Shared Secret (HEX) – Bunch of characters
Advanced:
ESN - Donor ESN (From Razr)
MSID - My Phone number
Not sure if any of this makes sense. I am just trying to get the internet working. Please let me know if anyone has any ideas. It does say "Preparing vision services" when I try to connect to the internet but always fails with error 67 Username and/or Password incorrect. Also get Cannot Connect Dialed #777. Also get error code 1012 could not prepare Vision services please try again later.
Thanks very much in advance for the help!

Well I know this is prolly not the right thread to put this under however I am not sure which is and the person who started this thread is doing what I wanted to know was possible to do. And second I was wondering how to do it. I am completely noob on this. I did as he did and bought a new phone which ended up having a bad ESN.
I have a Nokia with Verizon and it broke. They wont replace it for me so I went and bought an LGVX9100M. I have been researching for around 4 hours now and cant find a thing if I can take the ESN from my Nokia which is clean and working and put it to the LG to make it work. I am not familiar with any thing that has to do with programming cell phones or using the programs. I am however a pretty quick learner.
Is there a way to do this? Is there a program I need or a way to just do it in the phone? IF I can do this with a program how do I do it and what stuff do I have to replace the numbers with?
Bad ESN's= Unrecovered lost or stolen property, or property with a bill due over its usage.
Helping with Bad ESN's, is like helping repaint a stolen car.

I was recently googling hacks for my evo and found something on changing the sprint HA server address to get faster speeds. http://www.evdoinfo.com/content/view/1960/63/
It gave a list of sprint HA servers and there was a closer server than the one my evo was currently set to use. So i changed it to the closer one and it dramaticly increased my 3g speeds.
Anyways my question is does anybody know what the verizon HA server addresses and locations are. I have searched all over with no luck and everyone i have asked has theirs set the same as mine 255.255.255.255 wich will or is suppose to get you the closest server, but does not always do so.. If anyone would be willing to check what their setting are and post that would be great. Hoping i can get the same results i got from my evo.
Aww no answers i thought for sure someone here would know something. Anyone?
I'm not even sure how to access the menu to see what my home agent is set to. I'd be interested in changing it myself, on a D2G.
I've done this before on a Palm pre, but can't seem to find out how to do this on a Verizon Droid...
Hi guys,
I opened this new thread because I already tried the search tool, even the google search, but nothing came up for the Xperia Play.
My question is, is there a way to change the wi-fi MAC address on the Xperia Play?, the reason I want to do that is because I think somebody at my job blacklisted my device from the wi-fi... some co-workers can get into the wifi network while some of us don't.
All our phones detects the WIFI network, all of us have the password (ok somebody smuggled it for us heheh )
A month ago I was able to do so, and no problem whatsoever, then it just started to get stuck while obtaining the IP address, then, disconnects from the network and get into an infinite loop not being able to sign into the network, while my desk neighbor not so-smart phone (samsung marvel) keep getting connected using the same password, so my first thought was it was only blocking smart-phones by MAC prefixes or android signature ... whatever
But yesterday another co-worker brought his just purchased Samsung Galaxy PRO (which looks like a Blackberry, but running android ), and to my surprise he did got into the wifi network without any issue (using the same password I use and gave him for trial), so I'm now pretty sure they blacklisted by MAC address
Well I manage to convince my buddy to share the network via tethering as a work around, and IT WORKED.
Anyone have an idea if what I'm thinkind is possible (being MAC blacklisted) and also if there's a way to change it on my PLAY runnin Gingerbread 2.3.3 un-rooted with stock SE SW.?
Thanks
I'm not at the pc now. Search my posts for bluetooth address with references to pocketnow tutorial for different device. Maybe you can make it work on xplay. I got one step closer locating one of the address files in one of the posts but no further. Don't know if you can do it without root.

dam it lol ill post it again later on
Thank you. If you know how to change bluetooth as well I will be very grateful.

Before I ask my question let me address the trolls that might mess up this thread and end up getting it locked.....
1. I'm not trying to ask for a guide
2. I'm not trying to debate whether is illegal or legal to have a flash evo on boost
3. I'm just asking a question, nothing more...nothing less
OK with that said, I wanted to know if anyone on Boost Mobile using the original EVO has successfully got 4G to work using Clear and if you did, how are your speeds?
The reason I'm asking is because I saw this video about a week or two ago and was like "OK, this is a joke and the guy is just full of it" BUT as I started to do my own research on it, I found that it might be possible. NOT as easy as the guy below makes it seem BUT it MIGHT be possible....

K, I'm not sure about Boost Mobile as I am not on their network, BUT, as I am on a different network myself. In my case, MobiPCS, which is basically the same type of carrier anyway. However, I'm guessing that it should apply with ye too.
I'm in the process of tying my 4G to Clear too. In fact, I've already made the modifications on my e4g to enable clearwire service on it and I've already confirmed that it works. I've as yet to actually activate my service (meaning unrestricted access to the internet) on it tho.
The reason why I think it should apply to you is that all the modifications are in the basic settings of the phone which has nothing to do with what rom you are using.
Before I start, I should mention that to cover xda and mine ass:
"You are responsible for any modifications done to your phone, the information provided are for educational and informational purposes. Any modifications done to your phone may result in an unuseable (bricked) phone which will be your responsibility to deal with. Under no circumstances will xda nor I will be held responsible for any damages or problems arising from any modifications done by you on your phone."
Ok, now that the legalese are out of the way...
Go to Phone and enter "##3282#" on the dial pad.
The phone will then initialize the EPST (don't ask me what epst means, I dunno ...yet).
It will then ask you which Mode you want to be in. I suggest View first to familiarize yourself without chance of screwing up something in there. Be aware a incorrect setting could result in a bricked phone, so be careful. When you are ready, select Edit Mode. Then phone will ask you for the MSL code. There are ways of finding out that code, but I won't get into that now, you can find that information by searching the forums.
Hit WiMAX > Realm
It probably will still be the default "sprintpcs.com." Change that string to "clearwire-wmx.net"
Hit the menu button and select "Commit Modifications." Be patient, it can take up to a few minutes for the phone to do the modifications.
You will know if the modifications took if the NAI string changes from
"[email protected]" to "[email protected]" Remember, "device_MAC_address" is the actual 12-digit MAC address of your phone. This is important: make SURE your listed mac address MATCHES the actual mac address printed on the back of the phone under the battery. If it's incorrect, I'm sure you can fix that, but you'll have to search these forums for that information as I did'nt have that problem with my e4g, but I DO have that problem with my e3D, but haven't gotten around to dealing with that (have other problems on my e3D that requires more immediate attention).
Back out of EPST and go to Setting > Wireless & networks > 4G settings. Click on 4G to turn on the antenna. It should then start saying it's connecting to network. Once connected it probably will say "Connected to Sprint" when you're actually connected to clearwire. I understand you can change the above string to "Connected to Clearwire" but I don't know how ...yet. I wanna do this myself too. Probably have to use Root Explorer (or similar software and edit something).
Go to your favorite browser and try connect to a website. Instead it should be automatically redirected to clear.com's page. This is normal when you don't have an account/service associated with the connecting device mac address. It should ask you somewhere whether you want to add this device. Click on it and it should then go to a page where it will ask you whether you want to use the connecting device. Check the bottom and make sure the mac address given there matches your device. If it is the same, you're good to go and activate service or associate that device to an existing service. Be aware that you can only have up to 3 devices associated to a given service, pending on the plan you choose. I currently have the Pick-2 plan and will soon upgrade to the Pick-3 plan which allows 3 different devices on the same account.
Once you activate new or associate an existing service to your device, Clearwire will add your mac address to it's server's list of devices authorized to connect to the clear service. And voila! your online with clear!
Hope this helps. I don't see any reason why you shouldn't be cleared to connect your boosted e4g (sorry, couldnt resist the pun).
-Lance
Thanks dude!!
Unfortunately, I called Clear today before doing all this editing and stuff AND found out that service isn't provided in the Pensacola area
I WILL keep this mind for when I'm in Jacksonville, FL which service is provided and try it out....THANKS again Lanaka!

Dude, chill. If you READ before posting, you MAY note that there is no phone cloning nor any subscriber fraud involved here. All we are doing is to tell the phone where to go connect for 4G service. No fraud involved when youre hooking up YOUR own phone to YOUR own phone and/or 4G service.
Oh another thing, ...lay off on the excessive abuse of red text. That is as tasteless as writing an entire post in ALL-CAPS.

Ahh, thats a bummers! I know the feeling bro! I dont have clear Clear coverage (pardon the pun, its NOT intentional, hehe) at home. However i have pretty good signal at most of the other places where i'd connect. I already have both mobpcs and clear services, separately tho, and generally hapy with both.

For some reason when i did this. i put the clear-wmx.net in EPST and commited. after that i turned 4g on and it didnt connect to clears website it just started working but its slow and btw i dont have any type of clear account

Aloha Alienx.
Based on what you wrote it appears that you re not actually connecting to Clear's 4G service. You first must make sure that you are actually in the service coverage area. You can check by hitting their coverage map page:
http://www.clear.com/coverage
Next, check your notification bar, which service icon is on? 4G, 3G, 2X or 1X? Or is wifi on (the rainbow-like symbol)? I suspect you are either not in a service area and using 3G/2X/1X or using a slow wifi.
The reason why I think so is because if you try access Clear, their servers will first check your connecting device's mac address against their list of authorized devices. If it is not on their list your connection will auto directed to their web pages to be given an opportunity to sign up to their services. At this point you can then let them save your device's mac addy to the server's list of authorized accessing devices (assuming you signed up and paid for their services).
-Lance
PS: a final thing, make sure the EPST has the correct mac addy as your device's id. It has been know to happen where the phone's id number in the software side did NOT match what was in the hardware.
clear 4g
i have hit their home page (home dot clear dot com) on 4g using epic 4g going to add my device to my account ill let you know
set my realm to clearwire-wmx.com
I have been in the process of attempting to flash my Epic 4g to boost for about a week now (with very limited time each day). Thanks to the help of some awesome people here on the forum I have made quite a bit of progress. I have however, hit a wall. I am currently attempting to use a Samsung Replenish which I purchased with GB 2.3.6 pre-installed. I have gotten to the point where I need to extract the HA/AAA keys from the donor and it is locked down tighter than (insert random virgin joke here...). I have tried two methods, method 1- reading NV Items 465,466,1192, and 1194, this method gives me four text files, each of which say access denied toward the top and give me nothing but goose eggs. method 2- using QXDM typing password (spc) which works fine, I have the right SPC and it accepts it, but then when I type the requestnvitemread ds_mip_ss_user_prof command (and I have tried prof 1 and prof 0) it says "error recieved from target". I am not familiar with anything more technical than what I explained, I know my way around these phones a bit and am technically savvy, but I do not know any code or anything like that.
I stated in my first post that I dont mind having to spend money to get my epic to boost but I would like to avoid it. With that being said, I would like to know if there is anything that I can try before pulling the trigger on a Sanyo Incognito (which to my understanding is one of the easier phones to use for this process). I have read that flashing back to froyo might help, but I cant find anything on flashing the Replenish back to Froyo as no one seems to want to do it. If anyone has any advice on flashing back to Froyo or anything else that I can try to get those keys I would be eternally grateful (well maybe for a day or two, after that I'd probably forget...anyways...)
thanks in advance for any help!!
Even though you're trying to flash an Epic 4G, this question is more applicable to a Replenish forum (if there is one), where people have experience reading these NV items on that particular model.
Some things to try:
Try first sending "password 01F2030F5F678FF9" in QXDM. (I wouldn't be surprised if this password did not work for the Replenish. Some Samsung devices have unique passwords.)
Try DFS CDMA Tool.
Try reading /nvm/num/ in QPST EFS Explorer.

Yeah, unfortunately for me, this phone isn't very popular...especially in the hacking/flashing community so my resources are limited, I did not see a thread dedicated to this phone on here. I tried using the password that you gave me and it did accept it but did not change my result. I also tried using efs explorer and each file that I save/view says secret and nothing else....
Usually reading EFS is blocked until you send the 16 digit password, but it sounds like you did that already. Sorry, I've never used a Replenish, so I'm not sure what else to do.

NP thanks anyway, I went ahead and bought an Incognito. I got a deal on ebay, for a nonfunctional unit with guaranteed ESN as well as USB capabilities for $35, the dealer sells them specifically for the purpose of donor/flashing. Guess I'll have to wait a few more days for an almost fully functional Epic...At least now I get to play around with some roms and fine tune that sucker to my exact liking
One more quick question though, When I get the phone, should I transfer my boost account to it BEFORE I flash the epic? or can I just flash it, call from the epic and transfer it all that way?
You need to have the incognito on boost first. When you transfer the account to incognito they will program the phone for you. I would suggest you to talk to a live person at boost when you activate the incognito. Write down the spc code and mdn number. This will save you some time. After that everything else should be easy. Program the epic with the information from incognito.
