Cricket to sprint?

So I'm buying an Epic 4G Touch from someone who flashed it to Cricket. They had Sprint then flashed to cricket for some reason and then went to Verizon. Would I just have to ODIN the most recent version on to have it back on Sprint or what needs to be done?

i have no clue what ur talking about man lol. flashing carriers? lol. all i know is that cricket runs on sprints network. its a prepay phone network i think, but i have not a clue about flashing carriers lol

I have flashed my E4GT in the other direction, from Sprint to Cricket. You need some information that I don't know how to find, and then you need a program called QPST to apply that information.
Here is a link to the tutorial I used to do the flashing. I don't have any idea how to do the reverse; apologies.
Hope this gets you on the right track.

Download the latest version of CDMA workshop and flash a Sprint PRL. Google is your friend

How to flash to another Carrier (Cricket,Metropcs,Etc)

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
Sent from my SCH-I405 using Tapatalk 2

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.

Any way to repost the tutorial for us who want to just change the PRL?

How would you get the ESN into MetroPCS's inventory if there's NO MORE Houdini and being that it's a ESN beginning with 99XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX?
PM if needed! Thanks!

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...

[Q] Sprint Rom on ATT

I just switched from Sprint to ATT because Sprint still doesn't have 4G LTE in my area. Currently using JB's Jellybomb on my Sprint Note 2. Can I use the same rom on ATT or will it brick my phone?
I've searched to forums, and see conflicting answers, so forgive me if this has been addressed before.

You won't brick it but I could not configure it for data
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium

I'm in for answer as well...
I mean, it's safe to flash any ROM for the Note 2, whether it's Sprint, t-mo, or international because we have the same hardware(aside from fm radio)?
Then maybe stab at apn settings for network to work=win?

Yea if its packed with a radio etc your borked. I tried jelly bomb on here but I couldn't get the APN settings configured correctly. It may have to do with a CDMA base which didn't allow me to set APN but that's only speculation.

I wasn't a big fan of Jellybomb.
Anyway That would be a no go bro brick possibility is very high.

Data issue...

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?

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

Ugh that'll be the third forum I've gone to... I'm so lost

you have a Verizon S3, that is the FIRST place you need to go. always go to the forum for the device you have, bro.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1708

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.

4G data on an ATT GS3

Hi
So long story short, my Tmo GS3 got stolen at my work :/
So my mom gave me her ATT GS3 cus she was up for an upgrade,
i been reading its possible to get 4G on an ATT GS3 but so far no luck,
i know i have the right APN cus i copied the one from my Nex4 to my GS3, i set the network to manual and choose Tmo, but still all i get is Edge.
Does it have to do something with the way i unlocked the phone?
I been reading it has to be factory unlock and i unlocked mine by dialing *#197328640# and doing the required steps.
Can anyone help me with this?

Maybe you should try posting in the ATT S3 forums? I'm pretty sure that most people here have the TMO variant, while you are looking for tweaking of the ATT variant.

Don't flash a T-Mobile modem, it will brick. T-Mobile and AT&T use different frequencies for hspa+ in most places, and the AT&T version doesn't have the hardware to pick up the most used T-Mobile frequency I believe. So you're probably stuck with edge

You ARE stuck on edge.... I know it sucks. unless you are in a refarming area http://www.airportal.de/ , (major cities) your AT&T S3 1900/2100Mhz high speed data (4G) band will not work on T-Mobile's 1700/2100Mhz networks. I would sell it on e-bay or craigslist and got your T-mobile S3 again. or get the T-Mobile S4 after you sell your att S3 :cyclops:
