i wanted people To see it work but there is still more to the puzzle like data I'm sure this was not the only way to write a prl to the phone and can't wait to get my hands on another one as the one I had was a customers dat had took it to 3 cricket store already and was giving the run around about how its impossible to flash it took all of a hour to get it talk and text flash with a little more time I'm sure I could have got data
Could one potentially use part of this to safely change their PRL only? i.e. putting a corporate PRL on the phone?
EDIT: It seems to have worked.
Yes You can use this To put any prl You want even tho u rename it test it still Will show the verison in about

Whoa, what happened to your original post?
So even though this is a 4g lte phone, it is able to be flashed to metropcs? Currently i have the evo 3d flashed to metro and I wanted to get the galaxy nexus. But I wasn't sure if the sprint version could be flashed or not.

It is flashable to metropcs? I read somewhere that the sprint one is a qualcom based phone. How do you know forsure? They said it has the qualcom sticker in it when you buy it
It can be flash to metropcs

If i was to buy a sprint galaxy nexus and go to any metropcs, they would be able to flash it and get talk and text with their program of houdini? or you have to use a different program in order to flash it?
As of right now no houdini Will not work You can check there website tho

Metro PC's is a joke
You are better off looking on Craigslist find someone who has a store (preferably)
Why?
Because even in the event they do do it you will probably only get talk and text.Usually no mms or web
An independent retailer will most likely get the job done better.

Sph-L700 sprint galaxy nexus
No one can flash this at all. Is there/Will there be software? So that it can be flashed to cricket. This is what I wanted. Now I guess I will put the phone on craigslist. Any insight.
What about another phone similar like nexus s
I have been kicking myself for a week now trying to get a Nexus on cricket and I have been getting nowhere. Its their international phone and it works when I put a sim card in it from AT&T and T-Mobile but no such luck with Cricket.
Sorry about the hi jack. But the site video said if I can't find the exact answer that I'm looking for I should find one close to it and post it in there.
The phone is mod GT: i9020T Google Nexus S
Thanks in advance.
You can only flash a CDMA phone to Cricket or MetroPCS the i9050T is a GSM phone.. if it uses a sim card it wont work...

I'm wondering if I can like flash the factory ROM/radio/bootloader for the Sprint Galaxy Nexus onto the Verizon one and basically turn it into a Sprint phone?
I know they're really the same device so I think it could be done with the Nexus Toolkit easily, but before I try I want to know if it really can be done, I know any carriers Sim Card works so why not this too?
Thanks to any that provide info

Not a chance.
verizon cdma radio will work fine on sprint, no need to try to flash a sprint one.
lte obviously will not work at all no matter what you try.
of course getting sprint to recognize the phone is another matter and more trouble then its worth considering the same phone is available on sprint with working lte.

They are not the same device. They are sufficiently different hardware that you wouldn't be able to activate even if you found a Sprint CSR that would be willing to lose their job by adding the MEID to their database

I contacted Sprint who told me the code was deleted from their database do to me canceling my service. I keep getting the blank line when using terminal. I tried logcat, and even pressing in 50 different combinations just hoping to get lucky. If you can help I would appreciate it.

Hi, does anyone know if a galaxy nexus with a bad esn on sprint can be flashed to page plus? I know it can be done with other phones. Is there something special about this phone, where you will need access to your sprint account or something? I am looking into purchasing said phone, and currently have page plus. Thank you.

Ok SO I could not find a proper thread for this since there are SO many threads. The issue I'm having is I got a Samsung galaxy S III that was unlocked, and after I put my ATT sim into it I could recieve texts and calls but I could not recieve data. So I rooted it and applied clockwork with all my mods and figured I could find some setting that would fix it... well I was wrong. I tried global, GSM and LTE settings none of which would give me data. If there is anything anyone can do to help I would be more than appreciative.

While I agree that you should always call at&t so they can register a device to your account, this will not help his current data issue
OP, is this an international s3, T-Mobile or at&t? What firmware/rom is installed? Again, verify your imei is intact
Ok so this is a verizon Galaxy S3. It is rooted running 4.1.2 JB, Kernal 3.0.31. After I got the phone I did go to an ATT store to register a micro sim because i didn't have one at the time. So the imei is registered to my sim card perfectly. I can get calls and texts without any issue but no data. How do I figure out what the apn settings are and if I have the right configuration?

You do realize you're trying to use a cdma phone (verizon) on a gsm network (at&t), right? Different radios. Different technology. Won't work
Well it was unlocked at the phone has a gsm option so if it wasn't compatable I don't see why they would have the option there to actually use a gsm network.

You need to read more.
this phone only supports GSM with EDGE data.* This essentially means that you'll get 2G data speeds (unless you have a WiFi connection) because it doesn't support UMTS/HSPA+ which is required for international and U.S. 3G data. the 4G LTE frequency supported by this phone is only used in the U.S.* For those who don't know UMTS/HSPA+ is the 3G technology used by GSM carriers internationally (and used by AT&T and T-Mobile in the U.S.) which is different from the CDMA/EV-DO 3G technology used by Verizon and Sprint.*
This phone IS unlocked, that part is correct. But only for gsm carriers
So its preventing me from recieving ANY form of data possible?? It is a Verizon phone and I have ATT so you mean it doesn't support GSM then right?
Sent from my SCH-I535
You're in an at&t s3 forum with a verizon s3 that has zero data. If you really want to pursue this issue, you should start looking around in the Verizon S3 forums

If I'm not mistaken, some Verizon devices will not work on US gsm networks even if unlocked, only foreign gsm networks.
Saw an article about this, although it might have been a different phone that was being discussed.

If you are going to stick with AT&T, that is the way to go if you want to have data. No worries. Stupidity is only if you didn't learn anything. You had ignorance of the situation and now your don't. Do some research on any phone before you buy next time (especially if branded from another carrier). This can save you a lot of headaches as you have just learned. Just remember some basics from this forum. Good luck.
I'm sorry if this is in the forum somewhere but I couldn't fine it. Is there a way to flash a LS970 to verizon? Not 4g since I am not going to solder on a sim tray but for just 3g service?
You might be able to get it to work on page plus but certainly not Verizon without doing something illegal I think. Search around, I'm sure you'll find your answer

You may be able to flash this phone to straight talk or page plus but as far as unlocking it and using it as a gsm phone I don't think that will be possible because it only has CDMA radios. If I am wrong some one please correct me.

I was hoping to go to straight talk. I already bought a Sim from them.
How would I flash to straight talk?
Or Verizon prepaid... I have a donor phone for Verizon prepaid but I would prefer ST if possible.
My donor phone is the gusto 2 currently on $50 prepaid plan. I wouldn't mind 1x if that's all that comes wwith that plan. If I use vzw prepaid do I need a Sim? Do I need to flash?
Kinda rude to post a question and then state "I don't want to hear...". Have you tried Google? I recently started looking into going to straight talk and so far all I have found is that the Toro will not work with it. But I have not looked deeply yet. As old as this phone is, you should be able to find what you need by searching. And the development section is the wrong place for this.

From what I have read so far it depends on the phone. But again I haven't gotten far with my search. But you can go on straight talks website and enter in some information from your phone, and it will tell you if you can activate it. I'm thinking about a nexus 5 on straight talk.
