Someone please help with my phone

so i flashed my htc touch vogue with nsfans rom, i went to metro pcs to add my phone to my line, they couldnt get the phone into programming mode through the dial pad, so the associate asked if i could revert the phone back to original settings which is fine i can add the original sprint rom, butt when the phone is activated can i flash back to the custom rom and if so will all my metro pcs information be there so its still a usable phone, again any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you to all who are on these forums helping out folks who need it
Good to Go
Once activated, you'll be able to continue to use your phone when you do switch to the newer ROM.
GO!
thank you very much
The only reason you will have to reactivate your phone would be if you change your radio. Other than that, as long as you don't mess with the radio, you won't have to reactiviate/reauthenticate your phone.
got the phone workin with metro pcs, flashed the new rom nsfans 6.1 now if i could figure out the settings to change to get my internet working i would be in great shape, i must not understand this and think im going to have to have someone walk me through it but again thank you to all

[Q] I want to root my Evo on 3.30.651.3

I know nothing about rooting. Last phone I ever flashed a rom on was a touchro 2 aka rhodium. I just purchased my evo and its the newest model with the latest software. Is there a easy guide out there that I could understand? i been searching for a few days but I dont understand some of these methods. Any help would be appreciated.

i used this method about a week or so ago and it worked first time. although i couldnt access the recovery to flash a rom sso i ran unrevoked and then i could access recovery and i was fully rooted
Thanx a lot fellas......When I get to step 10 It says device offline. Any idea's as to why I get this error?............
::EDIT:: Nevermind I figured it out...Im rooted Thank you for the help fellas!!!
I officially love this forum! Was about to post this same exact thread and it suggested me here to keep from spam... NEVER have i seen that in a forum, so this is awesome. following instructions on that link to finish this up:-D
ive tried atleast 5+ different rooting methods but cant seem to get it.. i rooted my samsung moment easily as well as others but when it comes to this evo i cant do it.. i bricked it 2 times and to the point where i couldnt even flash the stock ruu anymore but luckily it was only 2 days since buying it so i was able to do a brand new swap and now i have my new evo #2 and havent touched it yet unless i got a fool proof rooting method.. Im not trying to go thru the bricking of this one to.. any input is thankful

[Q] Get 'Unauthorized' when trying to make calls, will not OTA

I am using the Jiminy V Rom on Cricket
I am unable to OTA or make calls on the Cricket network. when I try and make a call I get 'Unauthorized' and when I try to OTA (*228) the system says 'unable' at the very beginning. I have done many EVO's to cricket before, and I have checked and double checked all my PST settings, my MEID/MIN/MDN/PRL particularly.
Even when OTA doesnt work , I can always get voice/text working on virtually any other phone by manually programming the MDN/MIN/Home SID & PRL.
My cricket home SID is 4923 & I am using PRL 32200
I have even loaded a working evo's PST settings into this phone (via QPST, read from one phone, write to another), and get same results even after making sure the MDN/MIN & MEID are correct.
The symptoms are exactly the same as if my MEID is not in the cricket system, yet I have triple checked them (and I had someone else program another phone with my MEID and that phone OTA'd and made calls on Cricket with no problem).
Some other data for consideration Android 2.1, build Baseband 2.15.00……007.25 kernel 2.6., Radio 2.05.00.06.10, HBOOT 0.79.0000 SHIP S-OFF
I have also tried factory builds 2.2 (3.26.651.6) and 2.1, (Baseband 2.05.00.06.10,Build 1.41.651.1) with same result. Note: they did not change the PST.
Is there a factory build which will put everything back to Sprint or should I consider updating the HBoot and /or Radio?, I assume the programming for the OTA is done in the Radio?
I am stumped.
Bump, If anybody can help me with this, its been driving me up the wall for two weeks now.,
Have you tried flashing an RUU and updating everything from there? If it isn't the MEID then it might just be your phone having a glitch. Flash it using RUU and let me know.
how do you reset PST/NAM (SPC,MIN,MDN, Etc) to factory?
I have tried RUU_Supersonic_1.32.651.1_Radio_1.39.00.04.26_release_171253.exe , hboot goes from 0.92 to 0.79, radio from 2.15 to 1.39.00.04.26, and android from 2.2 to 2.1.
But the pst/nam settings remain unchanged, mdn,min, sip, nai, etc are all cricket. even the SPC is still unlocked at 000000. ANd the S-OFF flag is off, Shouldnt the RUU's re-root the phone?
Is there an alternate way to run the RUU, I have tried putting the phone in HBOOT usb mode, then run the RUU but with three different batteries it tells me they are too low (under 30%).
Should I be in Hboot mode to run RUU? (I have been running it from the PC with the phone booted up.
To answer a couple of my own questions, none of the RUU's reset the EPST whether they where loaded from the PC via the .exe method or from the SD card PB31IMG method.
I found a reference to ##786# and found that yes that does reset the EPST (including the SPC) back to factory.
So I figured maybe the problem would be solved, so I updated PST for cricket (MDN,MIN,SID,PRL) and tried again, still no OTA and still 'Unauthoriized; when I try to make calls.
I am starting to believe I have a hardware problem, but how can most of the phone work and yet it have (apparently) problems transmitting MEID?
Seems like no interest here or everybody stumped. I am willing to pay some one to help me resolve this. contact to my email or post here, I will certainly let the forum know when I resolve this. Thanks

Your problem has different symptoms from mine (the threadstarter), it sounds like your prl is incorrect. If you have a correct prl & sid (these can vary for the market you are in , in Phoenix the SID is 4923 and I use the old nationwide non EVDO PRL of 1040) when you dial 611 you will get Cricket, regardless of your ESN/MEID being registered with Cricket, if this doesnt work do not go further. Find a PRL/SID that works (sometimes changing CDMA connect from Auto to Home only can help) . Also make sure MNC/MNC are set to 310/0. Country code/Carrier I think.
Once you get 611 to connect to Cricket, *228 (OTA) will connect to cricket, if It disconnects you before the music starts playing and says 'Sorry....' it is most likely your MEID is not registered correctly with Cricket. In Phoenix *228 always works on EVo's as long as SID/PRL/MEID are correct,
The message you are getting about a credit card required means you are connnecting to some other carriers network (usually Verizon) which is transferring you to someplace to allow you to make a call even though you are
"not authorized" on the network. Go back and check 611 & *228.*228 will load the correct prl for your area and rate plan, check after it runs to see what was loaded. It will also most likely overwrite EVDO settings including MIP, Sip, NAI, etc.
At this point your phone should work, talk & text.
I had the same problem and I look all over. I wanted to unroot and remove jimmy v rom. I was think that if i update to the new update that it will fix it self and i was right. First I had to remove the jimmy v rom, so i got ruu to update the htboot and that let me update to the new 2.3.3. It fix it self and f***ing A.

Can you be more specificwhat you loaded and what versions of hboot where involved? I downgraded to 2.1 (with RUU) and hboot .79 and it did not resolve problem.

n00b goof up - Cleared MDN and MIN
I had a working - rooted, flashed to Boost mobile HTC EVO 4g (sprint). Calling was working but 3g was not. In some thread I read that if I cleared the MDN and MIN the next reboot would grab the programming OTA. Well after countless hours, flashing hboot flashing the phone is not bricked but will not even stay up and running. It gets to the main android screen and then restarts. I use linux as a host OS but have access to windows through VirtualBox. I can run ADB commands and watch the phone bootup. I can mount the usb partition and reflash ROM's with no problem but the phone will not stay up. I can't get it to the point where I can start DTM to establish connection with CDMA workshop, QPST, QXDM etc. I need some help here.
My question is: Is there a way to push the MDN and MIN to the phone through ADB? or push files to the phone that would have this information. I have another EVO (broke screen) flashed to Metro that could be used to grab NV files etc. Would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Getting Sprint GS3 on VM help...

Hi all, I've never been to this side of the forums, I'm usually in the AT&T s3 threads. So heres whats going on my cousin has VM and a friend of his gave him a Sprint S3 thinking he could activate on VM since they use the sprint network. Well he found out he couldn't do it directly. but after a quick search on google we found that it could be done. Ive been searching here and google and got a lot of info on the procedure but couldn't find a step by step tutorial. Ive already rooted the S3 and flashed a TWRP recovery, Downloaded Conquest rom for it.
I also have downloaded the CDMA tools DFS tools, how to use it i'm clueless. IS there a video or tutorial on this?
After reading this thread several times :

The donor phone is a LG optimus V
I know that 4g isnt going to happen, unless he had a 4g donor.
Do I need to root the LG phone to get the MSL info via apk like MYMSL Reader?
Is DIAG mode ##DIAG# from the phone dialer?
What is the samsung password and how do I get it?
Any help will be GREATLY appreciated....
I know the only way you used to be able to get the msl on the optimus v was to use CDMA workshop. Its been years since I have had one, so there might be an easier way now.
