Good afternoon, this is a question of users of the wave (S8500) in Latin America for developers hope we can provide a solution to your great knowledge!.
My question is if you can adapt a AMSS.BIN bada bada 1.2 for use in 2.0?. Spend it here in latin america we do not support bada 2.0 and therefore when we installed our wave bada 2.0 do not have signs or fewer 3G signal and therefore we can not call or send messages ... You could adapt a 1.2 as I said AMSS? at least to give us a good reception signal and to call, we try to do that but we had good results from lack of knowledge, so you resorted to see if we could help with that .. I just hope that some developer is encouraged to this project since it will be helping many Latin American countries and thousands of users without enjoying bada 2.0.
I tell them I'll put my phone to test, if you accept to do the project I will go testing your Avanze if it works on my phone.
Of course many thanks to you all. please help us!
yes we need your help

Very good, I think for what you asked must change the UMTS bands amms.bin modifying the firmware. It is long and you have to use complicated tools but each values what does And what he wants.
AMMS = Advanced Mobile Subscriber Software (Qualcomm by)
Qualcomm is a U.S. company founded in 1985 to produce chipsets for wireless technology CDMA and W-CDMA. Also responsible for the Eudora email client.
Among its main products, there Brew platform for creating applications for mobile devices.
It is one of the leading suppliers of processors for smartphones.
As we all know, our phone has AMSS, which is a driver software provided by Qualcomm, and telecommunications technology company.
As I researched, the AMSS functions as driver for this phone can connect to GSM, UMTS, among other things ...
There are tools, developed by Qualcomm, to enter the phone memory and calibrate the chipset, and my first thought when I heard this was in Latin Bada 1.2/2.0 + 3G.
I was hanging around in A and Developers Samsung universe and more or less able to operate the phone, and from what I saw, it is likely that the cell can be calibrated to use the bands that we need, but require a more advanced.
Below I leave a mini instructions on how to configure the phone and install the software if they want to investigate yourself. I believe that here comes the hand so that we can edit the file AMSS.bin and to use any firmware!
Clarified that are complicated and use tools that can write data on the phone, so, chances are corrupt memory to leave the cell unusable, everyone assumes their own responsibility to manipulate this program.
You need the following software is easy googling of last I can send PM's
- Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM driver
- Qualcomm QPST 2.7 Tools
- PSAS 1.5
Does not work on 64bit versions.
You must first change the USB connection mode of the Wave, for that we must enter the code * # 197328640 #
Then choose the following options
[8] Common> [7] SERVICE Configuration> [2] DIAG SERVICE Config> [2] USB DM / CP
Remember that the default connection mode is "[3] UART / AP" just want the connection back to normal.
Now that the cell is ready, connects to the PC and proceed to the installation of drivers, which by default is going to install one called "Samsung HS-9002 USB Diagnostics" which should be replaced by another driver.
-Open the Device Manager
-Where it says Ports Com & LPT search "Samsung HS-USB Diagnostics 9002" and the properties ponele "update driver" and select "Have Disk" to select it manually.
-In the package of "Qualcomm drivers" who have downloaded the driver select "msmdm.inf" (You have to remove the option "Show compatible hardware"), and the device list select "Qualcomm Diagnostics Interface 3197".
The end must be as follows:
Well, it already has configured the cellular to enter the internal configuration to do is to install elQPST Tools 2.7 and configure the COM port.
Start from the Start menu the "QPST Configuration", go to the tab "Ports" to add port go to "Add new port ..." and select the port "COMxx - USB / QC Diagnostic", then press ОК, should appear in the list, but the important thing, in the "Phone" must appear "QSC6270/QSC6240 (DEAD00D)", this means that the phone was recognized correctly and is ready for manipulation. If not, then you did something wrong ...
The tool I used to see some of the parameters was the "RF NV Item Manager". This program can read the phone's configuration parameters, you can also delete, edit and add new parameters ... but as I said before, is risky and if they know they are doing, I recommend not meddle.
When you open the "RF NV Item Manager" press the first button "Read from phone RF NV Items" and will start charging a nice list (as pictured below)
Pulling error, look at the top menu "Settings> ComPort" and select the port cell. (To know what, go to Device Manager under "Ports Com & LPT" and read from that port is "Qualcomm Diagnostics Interface 3197 (COMXX))
This list shows the NV Items, each one is configured with hexadecimal values, which can modify, delete, add, etc. .. as I said before.
You can also export to a. QCN which when opened can also be exported to TXT.
I warn you that among all these items, is the information of IMEI, so I recommend that no protection of their SETTINGS throughout the internet. The IMEI is in the NV Item 550 [NV_UE_IMEI_I].
My research was based on export a list of items in. QCN
First exported from my cellular with a 3G Firmware 1.0.2 with Latin America.
After the cell flashie a European Firm with Bada 1.2 (not 3g obviously) and went back to export another list. QCN
Comparing both configurations found 40 differences between the two configurations
The Latin American firm contains items that the European NO, such as:
said:
NV item: 3974 [NV_WCDMA_800_TX_PDM_LIN_1_I]
NV item: 3975 [NV_WCDMA_800_TX_PDM_LIN_2_I]
NV item: 3976 [NV_WCDMA_800_TX_PDM_LIN_3_I]
NV item: 3978 [NV_WCDMA_1900_TX_PDM_LIN_1_I]
NV item: 3979 [NV_WCDMA_1900_TX_PDM_LIN_2_I]
NV item: 3980 [NV_WCDMA_1900_TX_PDM_LIN_3_I]
Yes sir! UMTS bands are for Latin America as expected ... (UMTS or 3G WCDMA means)
And in the European Firm are other items that are not in Latin, as:
said:
NV item: 3984 [NV_WCDMA_900_TX_PDM_LIN_3_I], index 0
NV item: 5055 [NV_WCDMA_900_TX_LIN_MASTER_0_ENH_I], index 0
NV item: 5059 [NV_WCDMA_2100_TX_LIN_MASTER_0_ENH_I], index 0
NV item: 5061 [NV_WCDMA_900_TX_PDM_LIN_0_ENH_I], index 0
As expected, in this case refers to the European bands ...
With eggs in my throat ADD encourage the items found in firmware settings AMERICAN in my cell, which currently has no 3G bada 1.2, and thus prove that happens.
This can be done by generating a customized list of "NV items". To do this they must enter the "RV NV item manager" and press the button "Read form QCN file" and select the file (I had an export in. Qcn bada 1.0). Then in the menu "Option" select "Customized NV item list" and removed items that were already in the European firmware and let those of Latin America. Then press the button "Write listed items to the phone. (Override the Existing ones)"
This phone only write in the items I selected, but if any item that was already on the phone, it replaces the list.
After adding these parameters and restart the phone, still no 3G, no change I noticed in the cell may have to enable SETTING some more, so that bada 1.2 hablitado already understand that to use the local UMTS bands, but good is a matter of investigate ..
Then I installed the program PSAS 1.5, this tool also can read and edit the phone NV items, you can even see other items not marked with the "RF NV Manager items," such as item 2757 which is the product code, which can be changed also.
What I did was:
PSAS Open and go to "Hardware Forensics" -> "Use Mobile Ports" -> choose "Serial Com Port COMXX - Qualcomm Diagnostics Interface 3197 (COMXX)" In the same window go to "DIAG" and in " Diag Functions "drop down list and choose" Display NVitems ". Where it says start I wrote the item number that you "add" to the European firmware, such as 3980 and then you click on "Let's Go"
And below, the outcome QUAD going to say "Inactive item" ... mmmmm
P.D. I just do not probe the results conexsiones
Greetings to all!
Hello thank you for your interest ferrloz for this, but I want you to know that we have no knowledge about such things and that's why I brought my order to XDA developers because they know much about this.
I just hope that theirs will serve as a help to them and we can help .. Thank you very much!
I too would really like to see an easy way to do this. Here in Canada, we are still stuck on 1.0 because our phone providers don't give a flip about their customers and refuse to cooperate with Samsung to provide updates. I highly doubt we will ever see an official 2.0. If someone could please figure this out, you would be a hero.

That's something I wrote Taringa.net forum, the wording is of my authorship, simplifying everything I learned in xda developers (thanks to adfree). Here is the original post.
Advanced skills are needed to "calibrate" the S8500's modem wherever possible with Qualcomm tools...
Instead of only modifying the settings (NV, etc) a you did, why not generate a new amss.bin file with the new settings, and then reflashing the phone only with that new file?
Maybe this way the phone can acept the modifications... In case of freezing... just reflashing the european file back and the phone would be back again....
Just guessing...

Buy HTC Vogue Clean ESN CDMA Set to eaby.com . & how to Use This Phone In India in CDMA Network. pls tell
I m read another Indian forum. HTC 6800/6900 convert to tata CDMA
here is detail
SID, NID, Primay Channer A & B, Secondary Channel A & B loaded Nam 1 & Nam 2 PRL, SPC = 000000
I got all above Parameter from Tata Customer Care and they told any Foreign ESN Handset can work if you are able to change the above Parameters, After that I Get an GSK (Getting Started Kit) of Tata which have 14 Digit Activation Number, then Dialed *228 and followed the Instruction, After 2 Hours (Tipical 10 Minutes they say) Received a SMS to Restart the Phone. Voila my HTC Mogul is Working on TATA
Will load my QPST .qct file (Ready made Setting for TATA) so every buddy can easily Activate Mogul on TATA
Everybody now Welcome to World of Tata Indicom
( Attached TATA.rar contains Nam1 PRL, Nam2 PRL, and Ready made QCN file for QPST Service Programming, also have GetSPC [ Run in PPC6800 / Mogul Type the ESN in Capital and get the Service Programming Code] )
Pls Help me
Sounds interesting but I'm just wondering
OK.... can u explore more on that.
How does one go about creating/editing the PRL settings contained here if they want to use this thing on a different network than Tata?
thx
This method work on Cricket in USA and in TATA in India
Just follow the Process and Activate using *228 Loading TATA Prl is needed or else it will not catch TATA Tower range.
Go on and take it into TATA
I already have activated so many Phones
Both Cricket and TATA accept non Allocated ESN and Activate the OTA and INsert the new ESN against users Services, Here in India Reliance dont activate any phone which ESN is not pre Registered in Reliance Network
I was wondering if this will solve my issue. I have bought a touch with a bad ESN and is unable to put it on my account. Will this clear the ESN?
I used this ..so easy
so if you activated your phone for india service, would you be able to use it in the United States?
--James
I did this for my Sprint Touch. I am still using it in the USA but my phone has been modified to support other carriers with no problem.
The steps are simple:
Here is what you need to do:
1. Download GetSPC(attached below)
2. Unzip to desktop
3. Turn off phone and remove battery.
4. Write down your HEX ESN
5. Power your device back on
6. Connect via ActiveSync or WMDC
7. Copy entire folder to main memory on device.
8. Run GetSPC.exe
9. In the top box type in your HEX ESN(make sure caps is on)
10. Click generate or whatever the button is named
11. The resulting number should be a 6 digit number, your MSL, write it down.
12. Search for, download and install Qualcomm's QPST tool.(not freeware)
THE FOLLOWING STEPS ARE VERY DANGEROUS SO MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOW MY DIRECTIONS EXACTLY.
13. Run QPST Configuration(run as admin if Vista)
14. From the Dialpad, dial ##3424#(##diag#)
15. Connect device to computer via USB(this will install drivers)
16. In QPST Configuration, click ports.
17. Continue to add ports until the QPST Configuration detects your phone
18. Under active phones it should display your phone.
19. Click Start Clients/Service Programming
20. Select phone and click ok.
DO NOT LEAVE FIRST TAB, THE SETTINGS TAB. THIS IS THE ONLY TAB WE WILL NEED TO CHANGE ANY SETTINGS
21. Under the settings tab, click Read from phone.
22. Input your MSL you got from GetSPC earlier.
23. Under codes where it says Service Programming, change this to 000000
24. Click Write to Phone
25. Wait 1 minute
26. Close Qualcomm QPST one window at a time.
27. Disconnect the USB cable from your device
28. Perform Soft reset once
29. Test new MSL(##000000#)
30. If new code does not go through, hard reset.
31. Depending on what device you have, follow the necessary steps to unlock your phone so you can flash a new ROM to it.
32. Install OEM ROM from carrier of choice or build your own custom ROM using the new carrier's information.
33. Follow instructions to flash new OS to device.
34. Call service provider and do some sweet talking to get them to activate the phone on their network. You may need to do some serious sweet talking because Sprint ESNs are not in Verizon's database and vice versa. This goes for all CDMA carriers.
Good luck.

are u then able to have both NAM1 & NAM2 on the phone?
NAM
You have to enable dual NAMs through the registry. And use QPST or CDMA Workshop to set them up.
Thanks a million time to Shadomite
He had Cracked and changed the ESN
I have POsted the Simplified Method Just have a look
http://www.mobile-files.com/forum/showpost.php?p=355534&postcount=82
Quick question. Is there any chance of doing something similar to a Verizon World Edition Blackberry? I live in Ghana and i have had a few of these on my table in the last few months. Any ideas?
''Originally Posted by dharvey4651''
32. Install OEM ROM from carrier of choice or build your own custom ROM using the new carrier's information.''
What information i need from my carrier to build my own rom and how can i make it. Is there a way to build a rom and make a CDMA phone to work in Europe?
I have an HTC TOUCH CDMA ver in Greece!
Help..
Having HTC P3050
you have given the file i have downloaded it but now how to use it and activate on tata can u help me
Need English Viva ROM for Vogue (MP6900SP)
Thank you for this great post. I followed the instructions without bricking my phone. I looked at the 'simpler' one linked to here, but found the one on this thread much easier to follow and use.
Now all I need is the ROM for Viva (North America or Carribbean). Where can I find this? Thanks,
WMT
Hey Hetal
can't find your post on mobile-files.com. Is there any other link.
Will this method work on reliance network too???

Now it works.
help me
How can I use this file for my HTC Hero CDMA? this QCN file giving error.
help me.
Long road almost there, error 67 :( calls & text ) but no data :( [evo on boost]
THE GOOD AND BAD NEWS... THE GOOD NEWS FIRST! i got my evo4g over to boost mobile with my boost account i already had open i can outgoing text and recieve text (no mms right now) i can call out and get calls in, works great shows my boost cell phone number on my evo and everything..
NOW THE PROBLEM...
my DATA doesn't work at all... i get the error 67
I TRIED THESE INSTRUCTIONS AFTER SEEING MY DATA DIDNT WORK..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If data is not working move on to the next steps...
(Note: These are steps not verified by me as I still dont have neither 1x nor Evdo working but some people say 1 or 2 or all of these following steps combined worked for them, so i guess it depends on the network you are trying to get on)
1. First attempt to update your profile if it can or update PRL
Menu>Settings>About Phone>System Updates>Update Profile
Reboot and see if data works....
2. If still no Data, plug in your Hero to the computer, dial ##3424#, go to QPST folder and open QPST Configuration app.
Under the Ports Tab if the active COM port your phone is on is not in that list Click Add Port and add it.
Then go to Active Phones Tab, select the phone and then go to Start Clients>Service Programming
A new window opens, hit ok, then click Read From Phone on the bottom left, its gonna ask you for your MSL type it in
Then go to the M.IP Tab and under user profiles click on profile 0, click edit, and then deselect Profile Enabled, hit ok, then click Write to Phone.
Close the program unplug your hero, reboot it, and try your data again.
3. If still no data, plug in your old phone to the computer, open up QXDM
check Connections and make sure your COM port is being read.
Go to View>New>Common>NV Browser , in the Category Filter drop down menu, filter only Data
Then scroll down to ID numbers 1192 and 1194
Click read and copy down all the values in there until u reach 0x00
Then unplug your old phone and plug in your hero, dial in ##3424# and go to NV Browser
navigate to the same ID numbers 1192 and 1194, (just to be safe copy all the values here so you can revert back to the originals)
Then double click each value under the input column and it becomes changeable and change all the values to the ones from your old phone and hit write
Close QXDM unplug and reboot your hero, test Data again
4. If still no data, plug in your old phone to the computer, open up QXDM
check Connections and make sure your COM port is being read.
Go to View>New>Common>NV Browser , in the Category Filter drop down menu, filter only Data
Then scroll down to ID numbers 465 and 466
Click read and copy down all the values in there until u reach 0x00
Then unplug your old phone and plug in your hero, dial in ##3424# and go to NV Browser
navigate to the same ID numbers 465 and 466, (just to be safe copy all the values here so you can revert back to the originals)
Then double click each value under the input column and it becomes changeable and change all the values to the ones from your old phone and hit write
Close QXDM unplug and reboot your hero, test Data again
NONE OF IT WORKED.... SO I WENT TO THE SECOND SET OF INSTRUCTIONS.
Run the QPST config and plug in your phone, make sure your phone is detected in the COM port list. If not click Add New Port and add the one that it has detected your phone on. What it says may vary but USB will often be in the description.
Run QXDM click Options -> Communications and set the Target Port for the same one QPST config listed for your phone.
In the command box at the top type "spc 000000"
Note: If your SPC is not 000000 then you need to use the correct number instead!
If successful you will see a window titled "Command Output" that will output some text with the final line reading "SPC Result = Correct"
Next in the command box type "requestnvitemread ds_mip_ss_user_prof"
This will get you a lot of stuff in the Command Output window. It will start with the "DIAG TX item" section, ignore this one, we are interested in the "DIAG RX item" part.
The actual keys are 16 lines and marked in the output as 0-15. You will notice that quite handily both HA and AAA are both there. Take the part after the "0x" and that is actual key data. Just write down (or use word, notepad, whatever) to record this for safe keeping.
If you are doing this right then you have a long string of 30 characters all strung together for each key. DOUBLE CHECK YOUR COPYING! A single mistake will cause this to fail.
Putting the keys back into the phone:
Load QPST service programming, go to the M.IP tab. Double click profile 0 (in the white box) and use "Enter hex value" to enter your backups of your HA and AAA keys.
Write to phone.
Soft reset. (may not be required but I do it for good measure)
do "requestnvitemread ds_mip_ss_user_prof" for the sprint info and "requestnvitemread ds_mip_ss_user_prof 1" for the boost info
I'm telling you.. If you're getting the error 67, the following these steps above will fix it.. I'm on the Sprint network and the problem i was having was, in "Profile 0" The username which began with A000000 (this is actually your ESN #) Was from the original phone, not the donar phone... So i took the battery out the donor phone and looked at the ESN (not DEC) and began to type A00000 etc.
Then i used the steps above to get AAA Shared Secret from the Donor phone.. My AAA Shared Secret was 32 Alpha numeric characters...
i did that and still no dice.... i got the AAA key and the HA key .. both were 32 characters...
i even went as far as to get the profile info from the incognito phone, for profile 0 and 1, and made it exactly the same on my evo and addresses for the HA and alternate HA ADDRESS... still no dice.. i went into debug mode on my evo and even hit the restore to start fresh , and let it download the data via the servers... still didnt work...
i even re-entered the profile info and etc, for profile 0 and 1, and still not working
i know im close i just need to finish the puzzle please help.
oh yea, and when i go into debug mode it shows the authentication as failed.. i dont know how thats even possible I've triple checked the HA AND AAA keys via QXDM and they are the correct keys from the incognito boost phone.
I'm trying to use QPST to backup the PRL from my phone before writing new PRLs, because my current, working PRL, 54013, is not in the "Every Sprint PRL" thread.
I have qpst installed and I have the phone connected and seems to be recognized in qpst.
I'll go over what steps I took so far. Some of this I just guessed at since I didn't find any docs that said what to do.
On the phone I did ##DIAG# and got a PhoneUtil menu:
UART:
( ) CDMA MODEM
( ) PDA
I chose CDMA MODEM
Then there is a button [ Qualcomm USB Setting ] at the bottom.
Which brings up IOTHiddenMenu:
( ) MTP
( ) MTP + ADB
( ) PTP
( ) PTP + ADB
( ) RMNET + + DM + MODEM
( ) DM + MODEM + ADB
Either of the two choices that include MODEM will cause the PC to recognize a samsung diag com port driver, COM17 in my case.
Then in QPST I can add port COM17 and pull up the service programming screen, and it shows:
SURF9615, online, from phone
ESN ####### Build ######### MEID #########
One) I don't know where to go in qpst to copy the prl from the phone. The docs that came with qpst suggest it's the Roam tab, Preferred Roaming Enable, File:[___]
Two) From the service programming screen, when I press the [Read from Phone] button, it prompts "Enter service programming code". I tried entering my MSL in there but that doesn't work. It just says "Roaming list receive failed". I don't know what "Service Programming Code" is. Is it MSL or something else?
I'm on a rooted and manually de-bloated ma7 rom with mc2 modem/radio/firmware. If this process requires any system apks to work, it's possible I've deleted something that broke it.
I don't expect anyone to be able to tell me what every single required system apk is, or to figure out why this isn't working, just to look over what I did and tell me if I'm even trying the right things.
Thanks
[UPDATE] seems maybe Service Programming Code is MSL after all.
When I disconnect/reconnect the phone and try again, and leave the default 000000 in the field, it returns with a different and clearer prompt that says you entered an invalid service programming code and the phone will not accept any write commands for the next 10 seconds, try again.
When I enter my MSL, I do not get THAT error message. So whatever is wrong, it doesn't seem to be the Service Programming Code.[/UPDATE]
you'll need to flash an older modem ....LJC modem. that should allow you to use your msl to enter service programming.....once in click Read From Phone.....then enter msl.....let it read then click Save To File.....that will save 2 files the file named "your ESN #_sp.rl0" will be the prl backup.
once your done you can flash back to your current modem......remember to backup prior to flashing anything.
Hello,
I am playing around with QPST RF NV Manager.
Whenever I do a change to an NV item, and write it back to the phone, the application does not complain or anything. But when I read the NV items back from the phone, it shows me the original value (my change is not there).
I tried working with QPST Service Programming, and it has the same problem.
Also I tried QPST software download to back up the NV items. Using xxd I converted the backup to hex file, did my changes in the hex, using xxd converted the manipulated hex back to binary format, Then I restored the NV items on the phone using the manipulated backup and it again does not have any effect.
FYI, I also played around with EFS Professional 2.072 and the changes also does not take place!.
Is there any setting somewhere that I need to change to make the changes for sure to be written into the phone?
BTW, when I put the phone in download mode (this was not when I was working with QPST stuff) I noticed that a grey text says: "Write protection: Enable". I wonder if this has any relationship to QPST problem!?!?!
Setup Environment:
Galaxy S4 T-Mobile Version.
4.2.2 Stock (Rooted) and sim unlocked.
Under QPST I see the correct port which detect the phone (under phone column I see a code and (0) )
Any hint will be appreciated.
Thanks
Did you find a solution to this?
EDIT: Already got help from someone here. Thanks! "Case is closed now".
Hello everyone,
unfortunately I bricked my Find 7a while trying to expand the 3GB internal storage with Chinese partition layout. And I don't know where it went wrong. :crying:
I already tried the Unbrick tool (Sahara) and restoring the old partition layout several times. And the partition layout recovery worked, but ColorOS says my NV partition is still invalid. It seems this partition got damaged and now my IMEI is gone and I can't use my mobile network anymore.
And sadly I figured out that the normal TWRP doesn't even show the NV/EFS partition to back (only modified TWRP do), so I don't have an backup of those partitions.
One last change would be to take an backup of another phone, anonymizing it by overwriting the IMEI and kindly sending me the copy.
If someone is willing to do so, I'd be very happy so I can reanimate my Find 7 .
I attached a tutorial:
1. Needed software:
Qualcomm QPST Diag drivers
Qualcomm QPST Tool
IMEI converter
Any hex editor, e.g. HxD Editor
2. Start phone in Diag Mode:
-Enable Developer Settings and then "USB-Debugging" on your device
Install the drivers. They are already signed, so no need to disable Windows signature check.
To enable the Diag Port, either under
a) ColorOS:
-Call *#801# and enable "Engineer Mode Toggle"
b) ADB and root access:
ADB commands:
-adb shell (only when accessing the phone with ADB from pc, not necessary when using TWRP adb terminal)
-su
-setprop sys.usb.config diag,adb
Now in the in the device manager you should see a "Qualcomm/Oppo HS-USB MSM Diagnostics 276C (COM y)" device
3. Backup the IMEI/Baseband infos:
Again, we have 2 alternative ways:
a) QFIL
Open QFIL: C:\Program Files (x86)\Qualcomm\QPST\bin\QFIL.exe.
Did QFIL already automatically recognize the Diag Port in the first row?
From the top menu "Tools" choose the entry "QNC Backup Restore". Backup the QNC
b) QPST
Open QPST Configuration: C:\Program Files (x86)\Qualcomm\QPST\bin\QPSTConfig.exe.
Under the tab "Ports" there should be the COM port from the device manager above.
If not, try "Add New Port" and untick “Show Serial and USB/QC Diagnostic ports only” and choose the right COM port and click OK.
If this doesn't help and no device shows up, add the COM-Port manually by typing the following:
Port: COMy (replace x with the number of what the device manager is showing you for the "Qualcomm/Oppo HS-USB MSM Diagnostics 276C (COM y)"
Label: You are free to name this port what you want
Then in QPST Configuation open the top menu entry "Start Clients" and then "Software Download". Select the port of the device in diagnostic mode and press OK.
Choose the “Backup” option tab, click browse, choose your destination and name of your QCN backup, choose the "QPST NV Memory Files (.qcn)" as “Save as type”, NOT the first option as (.xqcn).
Click “Start” and wait for it to finish. This will back up all your phones NV Items and save them to the QCN Backup File.
5. Anonymizing your IMEI:
Open the .qcn file with HEX editor.
Search for your IMEI in HEX format. To do so, use the IMEI converter, enter your IMEI.
[For your own verifcation: An IMEI in HEX always starts with "08" followed by your first IMEI number and an "A". So if you have IMEI 123456789012345 the HEX format would be 08 1A 32 54 76 98 10 32 54.]
Now search for the converted HEX string (or better search for the first four characters 08xA only). Keep in mind to set the search type to "HEX values" not "Text" or anything else.
Replace all numbers after “08” with dummy numbers, so the result will e.g. be: 08 1A 22 33 44 55 66 77 88. Please copy your chosen dummy HEX IMEI, so I know what I am searching for to insert my IMEI then.
Save the file (as another copy, don't replace your original file in ase you will need it some day)
6. Share the anonymized file with me over PN
I thank all of you for your help! :victory:
Hello, I am new here and I would like to know if it is possible that you could share the file that happened to you since I have the same problem after partitioning my cell phone Beforehand thank you very much Sorry for my bad English
hi. had same problem with imei missing in my phone after hard bricking it and partition all mess up but now I done reparing the partition, some error come up says nv partition error. then I find out the imei is missing. please send me the dummy imei to my email. hope I can have my phone back.
