Do anybody that has the Samsung Epic 4G Touch flashed to Virgin Mobile usa CDMA? So basically I see videos on youtube of the Epic 4G Touch flashed to Boost Mobile. I already have HTC EVO 4G flashed to Virgin Mobile. Is it the same process just all I need is the DIAG drivers like could I use this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1404270 or this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1419488 just put my virgin mobile information. And I'll be good to go right? I just wanted to be sure someone else has it flashed to Virgin Mobile.

hello, I have a sph-d710 epic 4g that I purchased with a bad esn.I have already followed a few posts on how to get it working on virgin mobile and changed all the info from the donor phone to the epic.My problem is that when I make a call i get the "error 16" can anybody help me how to fix this? I dont have any info on the sprint account it was on, just in case you suggest I would need to call sprint customer service. Thanks in advance!

Can you guys teach me how to flash it to virgin mobile its already flashed to cricket can I still flash to virgin mobile?

Dial any number, error 16 will go on.
Wait on the phone, it will transfer you to customer care.
Answer some questions and they will refresh your account on their end.
Done

I tried calling a number then I got error 16 and waited.a machine aswered and says to call the number provided by your service provider.Also, when you say to answer a few questions, are they gong to ask me anything about the sprint account? As I said before I don't have any info on the account,not even the phone number.

[Q] flash to verizon prepaid

i am curently using verizon prepain services right now but the phones available suck. i have an htc evo 4g that i was using on sprint. what im wondering is if i can flash it to work with verizon prepaid and if so how. now i know there is a post in development but cause im new i cant view it. if someone could help me id be eternally greatful.
I'm in the process of fully flashing my evo to alltel. It's currently activated and data was working for a few hours but has stopped. I can help you get to where I am now.
Use CDMA workshop to get your SPC code.
Plug in your phone using USB cable.
Select "charge only".
Enable "USB debugging" (applications->development).
Dial ##3424# for DM command service.
Download HTC DIAG drivers.
If they don't install automatically, mine didn't, go to devices and printers, find your android device with the exclamation mark. (properties, hardware, properties, driver, update driver, browse my computer..., let me pick..., have disk, browse for your DIAG driver).
Download CDMA workshop and find which port your evo is on. Connect. Go to "Security" tab. Read SPC. Click "write". (You can either remember this code or set it to 000000.)
You're done with CDMA workshop. Exit diag mode on your evo.
EPST
Dial ##3282#. Select edit mode. Use whichever code you decided on in CDMA workshop, either 000000 or the code it was originally set to.
This is where you'll input your Verizon settings.
I'm still working on the Alltel ones. Maybe someone here has advice on how to proceed. Hope this helps.
Where are you stuck at? I have 2 evo 3'ds here and I know how to do it all besides repairing it for verizon. I can do everything else besides that step. Never done a evo (repair)and cant find the answers I need. Almost to the point of buying dfs evolution! LOL
I had a full guide to Flash Evo's to Verizon prepaid but the Admins took it down, right now I have an Evo, Evo 3d, Epic and even a Thunderbolt flashed to VzwPP.
All have full 3G unlimited data along with unlimited voice text and MMS for $50 a month.
Thunderbolt was very hard but the rest was a snap, if you need modded PRL's or anything just give me a shout.

I'm also interested in the method. I'm assuming the same method to Boost will also work to move the Sprint Galaxy SIII to a Sprint legacy plan like SERO. What I've found out so far:
1) QPST v2.7 Build 366 doesn't work on the Sprint GS3 except to add the diag comm port so that QXDM can see the port. You will not be able to use QPST to manipulate Profile 0 and Profile 1 to enable 3G.
2) QXDM v3.11.36 can be used for the repair. This will get you voice, SMS, 1xRTT data working.
3) To fix Profile 0 and Profile 1 to enable 3G, CDMA Tools DFS v4.0.0.3 looks to be very promising. Don't know what fields to fill out though.
I've seen ads in craigslist selling flashing services for the Galaxy S3 for use w/ Boost, so someone has already figured this out. Hopefully it won't be long before someone documents all the steps.
My Friend already flashes hes Sprint Galaxy S3 to Boostmobile with 3G data and mms working....
Nice I'm thinking about getting a s3 from best buy and paying full price and getting a warranty and flash to boost

I got a hold of QPST 2.7 build 378. This version is able to read more info from the Galaxy S3 than build 366. I'm able to launch EFS Explorer and see most (if not all) the NV Items. I'm not able to use Service Programming however. As soon as I enter the MSL, I get an error message saying "Roaming list receive failed". It looks like the latest build is 385. I'm wondering perhaps this build will be able to fully read/write the GS3. If anyone has a link to QPST 2.7 build 385, please share.

I flashed to Sero.
I used qxdm 3.12.714, which connected fine. I tried QPST.2.7.374 and was not able to connect to phone. "PRL error". CDWS connects but some features don't work, but its enough to get the phone programmed and 3g.

In DFS the fields to fill out for Profile 0 and Profile 1 are under Programming >>>Mobile. IP
Yes, I figured that before posting. It however is still operating at 1xRTT. So there must be something else I'm missing that needs to be changed in DFS.

[Q] Help Getting Data working on MetroPcs Flashed Note 2

I purchased a sprint galaxy note II that had aleady been flashed to metropcs for a good deal. I was able to get it activated for metropcs and currently have voice and mms functioning correctly. I have run into a dead end in trying to get the data to work for the phone. I have used the Galaxy Note2 toolkit. I am new to Odin and Clockwork Mod in general so this is becoming a bit tedious for me. I flashed the synergy Rom yesterday in a feable attempt to get my "data" back on track but now i realize I need help and guidance from the experts of the forum. Any guidance to point me in the right direction would be appreciated- for example- do I need to flash a radio, kernel, etc?... I hope I don't come off as a complete idiot considering I have spent hours on getting this thing Rooted- I really don't know what to do now. Thanks for the help.
Search for my guide on the galaxy s3 forum here. It worked for the evo 4g, evo 3d and galaxy s3, it should work on the note 2.
You wont get data without the proper provisioning. On these phones that requires using dfs or cdma tools. On htc phones it can be done with qpst.
Do the provisioning part of the guide and that should work.

Thanks Max, I figured the S3 would be a good place to start. I will work on it today.
Ok- Started the work on this today and wanted to give an update and where I am stuck. I am at BloodyKiller 86's section of the provisioning. I'm on windows 8- I installed the Diag drivers and can now see in my device manager a tab under modems that lists "Samsung Mobile USB Modem." In checking the properties it shows Com 3. On my Galaxy Note 2 when I do ##3424# it pulls up a PhoneUtil screen(UART)- I can either select CMDA Modem or PDA and then below that there is a Qualcom USB SETTING tab that gives me the following options: (mtp), (mtp+adb), (ptp), (ptp +adb), (RMNET+DM+Modem), and (DM+Modem+ADB). I am now stuck with using CDMA Workshop. I downloaded the demo version and am not sure if this is the reason i am getting stuck. I have chosen COM 3(shows in the properties of the Samsung Modem) and can connect to it successfully but when i attempt to Read Device in DM mode it gives me the "Failed...Device does not answer." I have tried choosing the different options above and connecting but to no avail. I am hoping you may have some advice for me. I appreciate all your hard work and will continue to work on this until I get this Note 2 working with Data.
mms help?

Guide to Flash to Straight talk using cdma

I have hacked several phones thanks to the help of this group so I wanted to return the favor. I spent about 6 hours doing this and have success (phone, text, and 3g web even using OTA programming with no MEID cloning.).
The first thing you need is to make sure your phone is stock. If your phone is modded get the stock rom from here
http://vivow.pcharpoon.com/roms.html#stock
I have tested this on a rooted phone using the GB rom above. With the latest radio from here
http://vivow.pcharpoon.com/radios.html
Next follow what shef692003 says about using CDMA workshop.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1067036&highlight=spc&page=4
Make sure to get your drivers downloaded first. You will have to hunt for cdma workshop yourself.
We need to change the spc code to 000000 you can also change the NAM number to your phone number but this doesn't seem to effect anything. after rebooting your phone dial the straight talk OTA program number *22890.
I will update after testing with AOPK 4.2 rom later. Thank all you guys for the help you have given.
Update after replacing stock rom with jelly bean AOKP
After running all day on AOKP using straight talk and all is well. Cell coverage is the same if not a little better than my wife's stock straight talk phone. Data was 3g and all the phone's features have worked "out of box" so to speak. I hope this helps someone else if they want to flash their Dinc 2 over to straight talk.

I was wondering, what are the APN settings you are using to achieve 3g?
EDIT: Also, when I try to call *22809 it tells me "we are unable to program your phone"

Sorry it took so long to get a reply back. My kid fell through some sheet rock and broke his arm so I've been busier than usual.
Are you using the stock rom from Verizon?
I didn't touch the APN settings the only other thing I did was to change the NAM value to my phone number. After doing those two things I was able to complete OTA programming. I had also updated the radio but I think that was after I had finished the OTA programming. I'll check my APN settings when I get a chance, but those where "stock" so to speak.
I want to do this for my brother, he is currently on Verizon. I am assuming that he has to disconnect service from Verizon first then activate Straight Talk?

this is no longer needed.. you can bring your dinc2 to straight talk without doing any flashing.. it's their byop plan.

Not True. You can bring SOME CDMA phone to ST but the incredible 2 is NOT one of them! If you try to activate it using their BYOP program they will take you MEID and after 10 or so minutes tell you that the phone is not compatible with their system. I know I tried. The reason I bought my incredible 2 was for the BYOP program.
Sorry for not replying
I never got an email showing their was a request for info on this thread. This method won't work for sprint phones ,I think, because it uses verizon CDMA settings. It does work as this is how I got my phone on the ST network.

I don't see any reason why you could not use the Dinc2 on BYOP for straight talk.

Sprint Galaxy Note 2 SPH-L900 (how do I reinstall Sprint PRLs&get rid of Page Plus)

Sprint Galaxy Note 2 SPH-L900 (how do I reinstall Sprint PRLs&get rid of Page Plus)
I bought a Sprint Galaxy Note 2 SPH-L900 not too long ago on Craigslist. Guy told me it worked with Sprint but he apparently flashed it to something that used Verizon PRLs (from what i've been told probably Page Plus). I recently tried to use Ringplus/Sprint with this phone but couldn't use it due to the PRL problem. When I try to make a call a robo Verizon operator pops up and I can't make calls. Of course, I can't get in contact with the guy that sold me the phone so im hoping you guys can help me get it to work with Sprint.
The MSL number has been changed to all zeros. And the dial code ##72786# shows "SCRTN" at the very top then just restarts my phone.
So I rooted the phone using this simple process. [SPH-L900] CF-Auto-Root
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1956180
Then I downloaded SuperSU. Then tried DFS to change my MSL number back to the original number. But it didn't work. I tried PRL Helper, but that too did not work. Won't let me reset the PRL. So I unrooted my phone (or so I thought) and reset the phone to factory to see if that would work, and it did not. So I reinstalled the CF-Auto-Root and now even SuperSU won't work. Im new to all this rooting stuff. THIS IS FRUSTRATING!
My phone is running stock rom. Android version 4.4.2 Baseband version L900VPUCOH3. Build number KOT49H.L900VPUCOH3.
PLEASE HELP!
I'm not sure of all the prl changes and how all that works. That said I would use odin to revert to a stock unrooted ROM and try to reactivate sprint via settings prl updates ect.
Edit: here's a link to stock ROM for Odin. Hope it helps http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2780984

Thanks for the help. I followed the instructions in the link and it didn't help at all. I still get a Verizon operator when I try to make calls and when I enter in try the carrier reset dial code ##72786# ,it shows "SCRTN" at the very top then just restarts my phone. There has got to be a way to fix this...
Sounds like you need to Google how to flash your phone to whatever carrier you are wanting to get on. I myself am on boost mobile.

Thanks. But thats what i've been doing. Im trying to get my phone to work with Ringplus(they use Sprint towers). I've been using cdma workshop to try resolve the issue but nothing has been working. I know that I need to revert my phone back to Sprint to be able to use Ringplus. Info on how to go from Page Plus to Sprint is very limited.

Thanks for responding. This is actually one of the first things I did and I also kept getting transferred to different people. What specifically did you ask the Sprint people for them to do what they did?
I had to buy a cheap donor phone to clone the settings and such over so i could use mine on boost. Just fyi

How would I clone another phone? And in order to do this right, would I have to clone another SPH-L900?

Sorry for the late response and thanks for the reply but I was trying to go to RingPlus not PagePlus.
Problem Solved!
Forgot to update. I fixed this problem.
How I FIXED Ringplus PRL problem (flashing to stock rom may or may not be necessary)
I fixed the problem by rooting my Galaxy Note 2 SPH-L900 with odin here.
[SPH-L900] CF-Auto-Root
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1956180
The reverted to 4.2 Kit Kat stock rom using "ALL_SPT_L900VPUCNE2_L900SPTCNE2_1561791_REV04_user_low_ship.tar.md5" file.
https://www.kingoapp.com/root-tutorials/how-to-flash-samsung-stock-rom-via-odin.htm
Then I downloaded the "25xxx = residential acct - lte/800smr" PRL files from
http://*******************eestat.ir/?index=forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1880781 (Add '?http://?xda-d?evelopers.freestat' to the beginning of link without the '?' marks.)
and extracting the "25XXX_LEG" folder then using the "25016.prl" file to desktop then using CDMA Workshop 2.7 to change the prl to the 25016 prl file.
Then I used trial version of DFS 16.2.21.0 to change my HEX and DEC and esn numbers to match what was on originally on the phone (I found this out through either Ringplus or going into phone dial code). It was a little difficult to change them because DFS kept saying it was skipping the request but after a little while even though it said it didn't change anything it did change it back to the original. That allowed my phone to be read by Ringplus and I was able to get the phone activated and PRLs updated automatically.
