I have had mine flashed to page plus, with 3g, and my mms doesn't work for me sending but does recurring, so in go sms settings I entered my mmsc url and now it works but only in go sms which I've always used anyway. pm me with your email and I'll send you stuff to help you

Yes it is possible to flash to page plus. I am currently on Virgin Mobile but am considering flashing to page plus so I can be on the verizon network. Already have on old LG ally I picked up so I can get 3g working on my epic touch

You need to change the rom specific apn settings, thats why you cant send mms.

To get 3g you will need to use a verizon phone as a donor phone and get all the AAA keys and etc.

i have old droid x from verizon but its not activated my nephew use it to play games on it will that help ?
hey @brooksyx is there a guide hat you can post on how to flash to pageplus ?
yeah what I would suggest doing is activating the droid x phone to page plus and pulling all the number and then zeroing out the numbers on the droid x. However I don't if this can be done on a motorola phone because they have real tight security. Samsung and LG phones have been the easiest to get access to the needed numbers. So I would check before you activate the droid x.
I would recommend buying something like this and using it:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/LG-ALLY-Ver...ell_Phones&hash=item3f1b7c8950#ht_3634wt_1163
I can provide you with the correct software to unlock it to read the numbers.
As for a guide it will be somewhat similar to this:

If you dont get good sprint service chances are you will get even worse service with boost. Boost mobile is a sprint company and runs off sprint towers and has no roaming.

hey there i need help flashing my samgsung galaxy to boost i followed the video and the post but when i get to the drivers for the samsung it wont install i have a sph-d710 and the download is for a sph-d700 and i tryed to get the drivers for mines but it wont show up in my ports but everything else is all right
Hoping I can get some help! I have a Sprint S2 on Boost for my pop. had someone flash it for me. worked perfectly. now i have no data. I am 99% sure I know what is wrong but don't know the KEYS to fix it.
OK from the top. everything worked. but a few hours later voicemail went poof. dial into vmail says invalid number. Grrr nothing I do seems to make it reset then I remember that changing ESN resets voice mail.
SO I activate a boost android phone. it activates fine but no data. it did not "activate" right (boosts end I assume) anyway the automated support provides instructions if you get no data as a last resort kind of thing if you tried everything else.
it has me punch in a ##xxxxxx# string and the phone reboots and intiates activation and data comes on! yeah.
Voicemail is now working again as well.
OK so I swap ESN back to the flashed S2
voicemail properly resets. its working now. calls and text are working but no data now.
I think I know what I need to do. I need to do some similar ##xxxxxx# thing (no its not ##MSL# tried that already) to get it to reset the data connection like I did on the other phone.
BUT .... HOW do I do it? what is the ## code I need to do this on the S2? I can't use automated help since that system "THINKS" I have a different phone so the instructions are wrong (sanyo 3810)
so what I need is the ## code or whatever the procedure is to force the phone to reset its data connection and get 3G back.
....

If you want 4g on this phone you need to subscribe to a wimax service and a change the wimax realm and wimax Mac address to match that of the modem you have activated on that wimax service.

I thought you were alright,
Ok did you follow the dir from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1447615
This is how I did it, I d/l the derp.zip, then unziped it, took the CT file and replaced the CT in the system/apps made sure the permission were the same as the one that got replaced. I have root explorer so it was easy to copy/paste and set permissions.
Reboot phone
Then I dialed ##DEBUG# or ##33284# entered my msl, went down to ( WIMAX CT ), tapped ( Open Device ) waited a few for the info to load. After that I entered my mac using the format xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx hit (set). Then backed out all the way to the home screen.
Reboot Phone
If your Realm is not the same from the carriers mac then of course you need to change it.
dial ##3282# tap (view)/(WiMAX) enter MSL, tap (REALM) if you dont have the 4g radio on then Realm will be blank, if you turn it on just back one screen and reenter the (REALM) and it will be there. If you need to edit tap the menu on the phone and a window at the bottom will pop up (WRITE Rlm) enter the info save back all the way out.
Reboot Phone
Again these are the steps I did other might have a different way.
Good Luck, It took me awhile to understand the process also, so don't give up hope.

Wow awesome Nevell. Thanks so much for this.
A few questions.
How different would it be to flash Straight Talk?
After flashing can I load ROMS like CyanogenMod and such without issue?
On the Sprint one yes but not on the VZW one. As far as flashing to ST you would need a donor phone. I won't go into details but that should be a start for you.

I'm not sure if the system will work like that. I think depending on the donor phone. The system creates a working 4G for your phone. For example, if you used a normal LG 3G based phone. The system does not register you as a working 4G phone. Just my 2 cents.

There should be no reason you to have issues at home because your brother has sprint. I have many friends that have boost that come over a lot without issues. Perhaps something on your settings are wrong when you flashed it.

Changing the APN (Access Point Name) won't make tethering "work". There are strings in the framework that need to be modified for it to work without getting cut off. Believe me I know, I had the fix in my ROM for the Note 2. The guy above is posting from outside the USA/T-Mobile with an Xperia lol.
Ohhh okay. So no way until someone makes a rom that can breai away from tmobile stuff?

I had used APN backup & restore on both S3 and Note 2. Hopefully, its dev will be able to setup an APN that will work with the S$.
Note - it will only work on 3/4 G, so you would loose LTE after restoring modified tethering APN, so you would have to backup the LTE APN and then restore it when you want to go back to using LTE.
There is no unlimited mobile hotspot yet, until then, you can call T-Mobile and they have free tethering for up to 500Mb until someone can unlock it for us.

Guys,
I just bought the At&t version of S4, got an unlock code for Sim and put in the nano T-mobile sim, all was good, got 4G internet from T-mobile and made calls. Tried to turn on my hotspot feature from the phone itself because T-mobile hotspot is free up to a limit.
Was not able to turn it on, it kept going to the off position with the error "MOBILE DATA IS NOT AVAILABLE OR INVALID SIM".
Of course I had my wifi connection off and had 4G connection from T-mobile. Got off with t-mobile customer service and got their APN settings, was nothing to change.
Yet my own samsung hotspot feature doesn't turn on. I think samsung has turned off this feature in US versions of S4, so even if you root, you wouldn't be able to get hotspot on.
At least that is my two sense on this matter. IF any body knows how to rectify this issue, please help.

It's saying invalid, because the strings in the framework point to an AT&T APN. Once again.....the strings will need to be changed for this to work.
I know that this method works with any plan, because I had the android preferred (5gb no tethering for $20) and now have the truly unlimited; and the method I speak of works on both.
