I hear you gotta call boost but when I dial 611 from the flashed evo and i wait after the error 16 announcement it says to reach customer service please dial the phone number supplied by your service provider and the call hangs up by itself it never gets to a rep
can anyone help me fix this problem on the evo thanks..
Im having the same problem. I even put the phone to complete stock thinking the s=off was causing it. I think you need to have them change the MDI Number have not tryed.

You don't have to call boost directly using 611. Make a phone call & you'll hear the error 16 message. Don't hang up. Your call will be directed to a boost rep that will fix the issue while your on the phone. They'll then tell you to reboot your phone. Once you reboot your good.

I just fixed my error 16. You will need a another boost phone just to switch to for like 10min then i switched back to original . Goto boost.com and update handset.
Thanks

By doing that doesn't the e.s.n change?
Then changing the A.A.A Keys?
Only giving you 1x speeds instead of 3g?
Showing the 3g symbol but unauthenticated under 33284?

Interesting. Thanks for your response.
Does the status under authentication change to failed when not connected to 3g?
I notice when 33284 says Im connected to 3g the authentication says
65=65=65=65
or
100=100=100=100
But not Authenticated =1
Sometimes it does say unathenticated.
Speeds are still terrible.
I had an Error 16 before talk and text was working. My e.s.n is different now after the Error 16 fix.
For anyone having a similar problem my only advice is to restart from scratch. You shouldnt get an Error 16 at all, not all of the information was properly transferred.
did any body get the get speed fixed i
have the same problem can some help
me with this problem.
You may want to update your data profile under the settings menu. Its under system updates. I do mine periodically and have little to no issues.

You can get some junk boost mobile and activate it on your account wait for 20 minutes and activate your evo this will solve the issue

I'm trying to finish getting an evo to metropcs for a friend. I did everything you need to do to get to the point of "activation". I put a newer Metro prl on the phone that works here in the ny area... but when i try to activate it or even call I get redirected to a verizon operator. The signal bar says I'm roaming and where it should say "MetroPCS" on the lockscreen its says"Analog B". Will an evo on metro pcs even work in the NY area? If not I just wasted a huge amount of time
Did you get the esn registered to metropcs? must I add must be considered coorperate store

go to settings>wireless settings>mobile networks>system select> change it to home only then also....make sure you still have the MetroPCS prl installed...dial *228 and make sure it says "hello hello hello metropcs" and if it does u might as well update the roaming list...say update roaming list after it says it

I didnt get my esn registered with metropcs because I assumed it was already registered.. Should I go ahead and try to do that, and if I do do you think they will they even allow me to?

If I'm correct the instructions you've provided will only allow me to connect to the towers that my PRL tells me too. Which makes sense since having it set to "automatic" will allow to roam and connect to a verizon tower, due to a roaming agreement between metro and verizon. Thanks for that hint. So I just did as instructed and It says I have no service (the little "x" by the bars.) oh I also followed these steps to re-start a hands free activation:
Steps:
1. Dial ##3282#
2. Enter Edit Mode
3. Enter your MSL
4. Select Data Profile
5. Menu
6. Restore
7. Let Phone Reboot, and Wait and the Hands Free Activation will Start.
and of course It didn't work because i have no service
Damn...I'm at a loss here...
Yep...get the esn set up with metro...
Damn guess I better, thanks for the input. I appreciate it
I realized that the esn on this evo is already added to the metro network.. due to some unmentionable modifications. I simply cant get service to activate the phone..
I got a evo 4g flash with boost mobile ..this morning i woke up and i was trying making a call..... my call doesn't go through, instead i get this message: "Your account could not be validated, please contact customer service"
but last night was working perfect
does anybody know how to fix this?
If your running a Sprint prl it will try to use whatever tower affiliated with Sprint rather native or roaming. That error is what you get when your connected to a roaming tower such as Verizon.

Flash a Boost prl.
Turn off roaming option
Flash a Boost PRL.
Hi all. I'm pretty new to repairing ESNs, and I have run into a snag. I have an EP4G that has all the settings for the Ver1z0n network, but says that it is still on the $print Network. When I try to make a call, it says that it could not process my call and to reboot the phone and try again. Data is not working at all. Any guides or advice, I'm not sure what I missed, but here is the steps I took:
Recovered SPC from Gusto with CDMA Workshop
Read and saved PRL with CDMA Workshop
Used QPST to read and save all settings from Gusto
Used QXDM to retrieve HA and AAA
Turned off the Gusto
Used QXDM to repair the meid and esn
Used QPST to change and write all settings including PRL
Rebooted phone
Stuck at this point
I have also tried to OTA the EP4GT using *22890 and *22891
I have also tried flashing to custom ROM, and to get diag mode I flashed back to Stock ROM
Any ideas????
Also, seem to be stuck in roaming.
Okay, Got Talk and Text working... still need help with the Data Please
I use my epic 4g touch and epic 4g on verizon prepaid. Also used the gutso as a donor. They both work perfect. I would redo the entire process from scratch. Are you able to send texts and recieve calls?

Yes, I can send text and receive callse, still no data though. Tried the whole thing from scratch again etc. Has to be something I'm missing.
Ok you get text and calls. Can you place a call as well? You were able to pull the aaa and ha keys correct? Ya it seems like you must of missed something allong the way. Also which prl are you using?

Hey, sorry it took me so long to get back on here. Internet has been down for the last few days.
So, I can make and receive both text and calls.
I pulled the ha and aaa keys. (QXDM: requesetnvitemread ds_mip_ss_user_prof )
Using a modded 53038 PRL
At least internet is back on so I can continue to research the issue.
UPDATE!!!
Okay, so I flashed to a custom ROM thinking that maybe it was one of the Sprint Bloatwares blocking a data connection with VZW. Turns out I was correct. Now I can connect, but it is only on the 1x network... IE I will connect for a few seconds, but then disconnect. Just like it is trying to connect on a send then receive and then shutdown cycle. So now I am down to trying to get 3g working instead of 1x.
You may need to flash the alternate carriers fix.

I rooted my S4 Mini (SPH-L520) phone using the procedures found here: http://androidxda.com/root-samsung-galaxy-s4-mini-sprint-sph-l520
This allowed it to be flashed to Boost. Talk/text/web/MMS all work.
However, I have three problems that appear to be related to the phone thinking it is still on the Sprint network:
First, I keep getting a sim card error that says, "The network did not respond in time. The SIM card has locked. Please power cycle the device and if the problem persists contact Customer Service.”
Second, I keep getting a "MIP 67" error.
Third, I can’t get a WiFi Hotspot program to work. The programs will start, but within a minute I get "Unable to connect to data network, turning off Hotspot. Your plan may not have the Hotspot service. Do you want to see subscription options?" If I click OK, it tells me "Network is not available." and ". . .dial *2 from your Sprint phone or call Customer Care. . ." Tethering with Boost worked fine with my old phone (TP2).
Is there anything I can do to fix these problems?

I saw something about changing APN settings on a GSM phone. Does that apply to CDMA phones as well, and might that provide a solution?
I'm getting the same errors, 67 and 89. It thinks it's still on Sprint, it was already running on PAGEPLUS, then lost it.

Hi, last night i flashed my sprint lg g2 stock/rooted phone to cricket using DFS, called up cricket and had them switch to the new flashed phone, and since i have not been able to get data 3g or even 1x on the phone.
I have flashed several phones and never encountered this problem, but this is my first LG phone, Rest were samsung and HTC
Texting and Calls work Great
It constantly lets me know "Mip 67" "Mip 111" and "Unable to Establish a wireless data connection" .
I have searched everywhere and although i can similar people with the problem, all are on sprint.
I have gone through DFS settings many times, reflashing, and nothing is seeming to work or stick
Any help or guidance would be much appreciated, an andorid phone without any internet might as well be a flip phone
Have you tried updating your profile while on WiFi?
A lot of ROMs for the g2 require this
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
update the data profile? i do click update when the mip error pops up, but it always fails..
ive done *228 multiple times, but doesnt get the 3g going
Are you connected to WiFi. I'm on sprint so I'm guessing. What band does cricket use?
Sent from my LG-LS980 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
yes, whether im connected to wifi or nothing it gives error.. this is normal with sprint optimized apps when on a flashed cricket phone though.. sprint connection optimizer wont work for all the right reasons... ok i made progress, got 3g, reflashed with simple ip only, no mobile ip. and i get 3g, but not consistant.. but its about progress not perfection! still open to help and advice to solidify this rocky connection
edit: anyone know how to edit the apn settings?? I go to settings and all, i can see yhe apn settings but cannot edit them... first time ever for me on that one

i wish it was that simple. He has a cricket sim card and somehow able to edit his apn settings.
on mine, its a sprint ls980, still has a sprint sim card in it..
update on whats ive notice over the day.. Itll randomly connect to '3g', but when you go to settings and status, its only really 1x.. mobile state is usually saying its 'connecting', once it does connect data drops out..
from what i believe, its still trying to connect to spring network for 3g, but will use cricket for 1x. might have something to do with the sim card, but i have popped it out to see what happens and it still as sketchy as before.
