Make sure your donor phone is completely turned off. Then try to make a call and when the error 16 message comes on, just stay on the line and a sprint/boost rep will answer and ask a few questions about your phone. Just give them the info of your donor phone and they will refresh your account and tell you to power off your phone for 30 seconds and then power it back on and place a call that lasts for at least 30 seconds and you're good.

Thanks but after the error message the call ends by it self.
Might be an stupid question, is the MAC id supposed to change at all after all?

The Mac address shouldn't have anything to do with it. You should try calling boost from a landline phone. Just make sure your donor phone is completely shut off. Just tell the rep that you can't make any phone calls and make sure you give them your donor phone info when they ask what phone you are using. They should refresh your account and give you some instructions to perform on your phone.

Thanks once again I was able to make a call I stayed
With it more than 30 seconds like you said then somehow
Transfer me to a boost technician and problem fix

Evo on Boost Mobile - Data Connection

I've got voice and texting working, I believe. But I can't get data to work. Can anyone help me out, please?
[EDIT] A little for info. I keep getting the error code 67 registration failure. Your PCS Vision username and/or password may be incorrect, or something. Saying invalid username/password. I have changed the username to my Boost Mobile one. But I don't know anything about changing the password.
Have you tried doing a profile update, thats how the fone gets its network access info and if the the fone is linked to your boost mobile account it should provide the username and password.
PS. What does the fone show up as if you look on your account online. Just curious.

I try and do a profile update, but it says the update has failed please try again later. I don't think it will work since the Evo is not actually supposed to be on Boost Mobile?
This is exactly what you need to do.. The phone that you cloned, to get the evo on the network.. You need to get the Shared AAA Secret and HA Shared Secret PAssword. I had this same problem with my EVo when cloning it with the samsung moment.. THIS IS WHAT YOU NEED! TRUST ME.. I spent months trying to figure out my problem and found it to be this.. This is the only method that can get you up and running. The HA Shared Secret is in Hex Format.. ill see if i can find that same guide that i used and post it later

Thanks, but I don't even see an option anywhere to set those kind of passwords. Even in QPST I can't find it.
Alright, I found all the options to set those kind of passwords. But I can't find the passwords on the Boost Mobile phone to set them as. It's a Motorola W385.

Just do a ##rtn# and reset it. That's what I did after I put my evo on boost. It did the hands free activation and everything. Try that

IT WORKS!!
you are not getting 3G speeds if you just do a ##rtn# reset only 1x speeds. you have to get profile 0 user names and passwords from a incognito in order to get evdo rev a speeds or a rant to get slower evdo rev 0 speeds. to check dial ##33284# on your evo and go to data status you will see either evdo if you have 3G or 1xrtt if you have regular non 3g data speeds. just cause the 3G signal pops up does not mean you have 3G

My phone calls and texts work, Just keep getting "Data Call Failure" Error Code 67 .Registration failure. Your PCS Vision username and/or password may be incorrect. Please try again.
When I hit ##786(RTN)# It bring up Reverse Logistics Support? I hit "Menu" to do a "RESET", and then it powers down & reboots. Logo pops up that it is updating I guess. Again it powers down comes back up as new. Lost everything? Your account could not be validated?

Do a ##data# then data profile reset and then do a rtn reset. Make sure you are on a stick Rom or it won't work. If it still don't work set your mdn & Msid to 0000001234 then reset it rtn

Tried Changing MEID to donor as it is wrong. When I "RequestNVItemWrite MEID 0x00A0000000000000" I get "RequestNVItemWrite - Error response received from target" in QXDM found 3 MEID's @ 00075184, 00033960, & 0003E520 How can I figure out the address to type in? For example:
ESN addresses:
00FD:0DC8
00FD:2694
00FE:381C
ESN addresses:
0127:BCCC
015F:8D48
017C:79BC
017C:7E1C
017C:E2D8
017C:F1D4
0188:B65C
01D4:3C01
I am receiving text messages & phone calls. Even though, my MEID is wrong on my EVO. I used HxD-Editor to find MEID's (3). Corrected them, but still can't write to EVO using QXDM? I am assuming this is why data isn't working? I am running Android2.2 Baseband 2.15.00.11.19

Your data isn't working because you don't have the AAA password. The meid doesn't matter because the evo uses the ESN. Get the AAA password and you'll be set.

How do I get the AAA password?

Can't activate phone after applying 2.2 update.zip

I have S-off, I went from the .0 software version to .2 software version and then applied the 2.2 update.zip file through stock recovery (I unrooted). After applying the 2.2 zip, my phone is asking me to activate and it is unsuccessful every time and routes me to Verizon customer service. They are closed right now, but I'm planning on calling tomorrow morning if all else fails. Anybody know a fix and, if not, should I be worried about my phone not activating because I wasn't meant to get 2.2 yet?
Hi.
After applying the ota over the update.zip i had the same issue i end up just calling them and saying i had gotten it "ota" and they told me to do the following to manually activate it.
dial ##778 and hit send then press edit mode
the password is 000000

go under nam settings and make sure
Mobile directory number is your 10 digit number no spaces
the min1 is you seven digit number no spaces
the min2 is your 3 digit area code
and the msid should again be your ten digit.

hit the back arrow then go to homesid/home nid this is where it gets tricky because this is the cell towers in you local area
In northeast ohio my home sid is 54 and the nid is 65535 which i believe is network standard for verizon but not 100% percent sure.
You may be able to google for this or find it in another verizon phone from a friend of family member in the area. If this is to much just call verizon explain it won't activate they will run you through all these steps and tell you the proper one.
Next you need to backout again
Verizon didn't tell me this step but with out it data doesn't work
Go to m.ip default profile and change nai to your 10 [email protected]

This will get the basic functionality of you phone working there are still some settings in there that a *228 activation would change that i didn't but i haven't noticed any lost functionality or billing issues yet.
I tried changing my Min1 as it wasn't set to my phones number. After about 3 to 4 days I could not make any calls without being transferred to an operator.
As soon as I changed it back I was able to make calls again.
I do not recommend changing this field unless the Verizon techs tell you to do so..
Additional Information:
After doing some google searching I've found that it is completely normal for your MSID number to be different than your phone number. In this case the Droid incredible uses the MIN1 and MIN2 to fill in the MSID number.
So again I say do not edit these fields unless told to do so by your carrier as they must give you the correct information or your phone will not be able to make or receive calls.

Well, which PRL are you on now?
Do you get an error?
If so, can you be more specific about it?
Are you sure roaming is disabled and set to home only?
I learned I had to re-apply all my settings but now I cant seem to get 3g working at all and everything is set up right just as before..??
HELP !!
