THIS IS ONLY FOR VIRGIN MOBILE USA OR SPRINT
Now that thats out there here we go:
A prl is the file that tells your phone what towers to use, and virgin mobile doesnt get to use all sprints towers, however you may use them if you were to connect to them. This is what increases your data, especially in a 4G town.
follow this exactly as I say!
You must download QPST, the prl file, an app on the phone and be rooted:
1) download this on the phone "THE APP"
2) Open the app, and accept the superuser request.
3) Tap read MSL
4) Write down your MSL, youll need it
5) Go to the phone app, dial ##PORT# and hit on, then select.
6) Enter your MSL and click ok
7) Plug into a computer and download HTC diag drivers attached to this thread
8) Go ahead and google and download QPST
9) Download and unzip the attached 60681.zip
10) Now for fun, If anything confuses you, google it.
10B) go to the device manager, and select the unknown HTC device, then update driver. then browse>let me pick from a list>have disk>go to downloaded unzipped folder>choose the appropreate folder for your OS type>click the driver. Now open, next, yes, close. Right click HTC Modem, and go to Properties>Advanced port settings>see what your COM port is
10C)Open QPST CONFIGURATION and select port. then add port, here you type the port your HTC MODEM is on.
10D) Your phone will now show up, and you will click start client>service programing
11) click your device and ok.
12) DO EXACTLY AS I SAY NOW! NOTHING ELSE!!! NO LOOKING AROUND!!!!!!!
13) Click read from phone, Give it the MSL you wrote down
14) Now click save to file
15) Click roam
16) Click browse where it says file and in that you put the 60681.prl you downloaded AND unzipped
17) Write to phone. THIS WILL RESTART THE PHONE, BOOT MAY TAKE A WHILE DONT PANIC
18) Enjoy faster internet
i cant find the app needed to do this.. ??

Qpst is on sourceforge and the msl reader is in the market.

The above instructions do not work for me, maybe cause im on cmp? dunno, but i cant even get past step 5, nor find my driver
is there a different way? i have my msl, htcdiag, and q.. have all that.. not getting it done

The code can only be input on a stock Rom. And go to the HTC site and install HTC sync for our phone (under the downloads section for our phone) ant that install will also install the driver.

so going back to stock is the only way? ew i dont like that idea.. but may have to, if my signal stays this low..

I've done it and I think that the improvement is a placebo affect. Do it for sure. Just be careful.

Can't get phone rooted at all

I've been at this for awhile and anything I try doesn't work. I used the SDK & PdaNet drivers on Win-7 x64, none have worked at all. "Offline" will only show twice after pressing recovery, I even used the vid posted by Kingofroyo and it didn't work either. I tried 2 sd cards also, adb works on my rooted g1 perfectly but the slide wont work in recovery mode. I used the guide by Eugene and followed every step but loop is the problem.
I dont think the sd is the problem or the drivers. You probably are missing a step somewhere. I have rooted the slide 3 times and the incredible (with the impossible root method) 4 times. It isnt a driver problem. Not putting you down but i have done every method.
Can you explain step by step what ou are doing?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I had the same problem but I have xp. Mine would show up only twice. My advise to u is not to use the loop method. I had to type adb devices manually. Once it has been type u can press the up arrow key and it will put the command back in for u all u have to do is press enter. I did that and once it shows offline the second time stop doing that and move on to the other steps. I'll be honest it takes good timing good luck.

Ive followed everything in eugene's guide, this isnt my first time rooting a device. Every step in his post was followed, nothing was skipped.

Same for me, it shows it twice only then that's it...loop is to quick for me to catch it, since it flashes pretty quick.
U will have to try the manual method then. My wife's slide the loop worked perfect I was done in 5mins. Once u get the manual method down it will be cake from there.

oh ok, I know there's just something wrong...It will show it only on the mytouch screen before going into rec mode, it's too fast for me to do crtl+c at the right moment. Usb debug is on in settings, checked it twice.

Manually do the adb devices thing
Also, are you pulling the usb and re inserting it at the right time?

I'm gonna ask my bro to pull it so i can keep typing adb devices, it shows offline about 4-5 secs after pressing reboot.
I hade the same problem but what worked for me was to listen to the usb notification sound on your pc. It beeps (on mine at least) like 3 times. This served as a warning to get ready to hit ctrl-c. I personally hold down ctrl as soon as I hit the power button on my phone. As soon as you see the loop stutter the next one will be offline. Hit c! Then y. Then adb devices. You should see offline (or sometimes already recovery) then you can unplug/plug and go on with the steps. Hope that helps.

Ok try this "remove your sim card" it worked for me for some reason the sim card has something to do with the ability to cache the state of the device possibly do to it checking for a sim lock or something.
Also have patience its all about timing the loop.bat is by far the easiest way.

#1 reason is probably the force CDMA command in the startup.txt. If you're CDMA, you need it to =1, if you're GSM you need it to =0. Check that & get back to us.
thnx for helping
that was the problem
i am having ths same issue with sprint. Ive tried to check and uncheck the force cdma and neither work. Where do i actually look to see it its set to 0?

You are on Sprint, so Force CDMA=1. Also probably the number one reason you have no service is the SIM card is still in. Remove the SIM and re-try Android.

I have tried removing the sim card in the past and i tried again. now what happens is that with force cdma checked it keeps trying to connect and then disconnects 20 seconds later over and over. I try to access the wireless networks settings but because it keeps disconnecting it goes back so it doesnt have achance to search for wireless networks.
If i dont force cdma then nothing happens and when i search for wireless networks it just keeps and searching but nothing happens. any help would be appreciated.
So wifi has nothing to do with CDMA/GSM... Typically wifi gets hosed from people who update their zImage but not their modules - they go hand-in-hand and while you can run without the modules, stuff like wifi won't work at all.

Ok you're still not being clear.
I assume your issue is you can't connect to the internet via the cell radio? Thru Sprint's network instead of wifi?
Can you make/receive calls? If so, data *should* just connect, assuming you're using relatively new stuff. A while ago you had to create an APN manually to connect, but that shouldn't be the case any more...

How do i access the force cdma. I use some sort of booting app that allows me to check or uncheck force cdma and to choose overclock speeds and update to newer versions. I dont see any place where i can access any stratup.txtThanks for your help. I would really love to try out android. Sprint wont let me update to any other smart phone but the tp2 (not that that is a bad thing) unless i upgrade my plan. I pay 5$ for unlimited data

You don't want to know what I pay...
So I'm not sure how to explain this. Your startup.txt is a file you edit - where you run haret.exe from?
It sounds like you installed the cab, which unfortunately means you probably know nothing about how the system is put together, even at a high-level. Which is a shame...
With that said, assuming you're running v1.3 of the startup app, it should work fine. I cannot, and will not support that app. If you need support for that app, please go to sov's thread on the application.
If you want help on XDAndroid, then we can help... but we encourage you to search, read, research, search again, read some more, do a little more research, and then you may be ready to post. Maybe.

Its a exe that extracts into a temp folder. Its nothing but ODIN app, once ODIN program starts, connect your phone and it should show up as yellow box on it and hit start , thats it. I did that on 8.1 so pretty sure you are missing something else. Are you sure your drivers are installed properly? On my laptop as soon as I put my phone in download mode, the drivers got installed automatically and the yellow box came up within no time.

Indeed my friend I was doing something wrong.
I forget about the download mode, as soon as I did it, ODIN recognized the Device.
I hit start after that, a couple of minutes ago, but the program is not responding. There's CPU activity with the process so I'll wait a couple of minutes more but if nothing happens I supposed will try again.

For some reason try it again and was taking to much time, copy it over to my new SSD and after a minutes worked just fine. I don't understand the issue as the other HDD is just fine, event is a brand new 7200RPM, but anyways after ran the software and after waiting some minutes the update went just ok. After that I used KIES to update to the newer version.
Thank you for the help

I accidentally hit update PRL in my flashed s3

I believe there might be a way to update the PRL via the phone, but I'm not positive and I've never done it.
I don't think it would be terribly difficult for you to update the PRL via dfs demo (I can give you a link to it)... all you do is find your SPC for your phone, and use that along with another password (there are 2 that I know of for Sprint phones) to unlock the phone for flashing in dfs demo, go to a specific tab, load PRL file from computer, and press the write button.
Yes that's sounds good, could you please post the link

[Q] sprint note 2 sph-l900 network info erased from phone..NO PHONE CALLS!!!HELP

NO matter what Rom I put on after this happens there is no network,,wireless works fine and so does the roms. Right after I rommed the ASOP latest nightly I called to make sure it was working fine and it was..Let ggogle put all my applications on and update them and went to bed,..When I woke up there was no network...So i used recovery and used 3 or 4 of my backups but none of them solved the network problem. I opened up backups to see if there was a file missing and I cant find any...Im willing to send some $ if someone can help me. By the way this has happened 3 times before but all sprint guys do is get me another phone and Im afraid thats going to be stopping soon..I just need to find out why this is happening so it doesnt happen again..thanks

Sounds like a problem i had before. It is your baseband version. To fix you need to flash a stock/ish rom. In dialer do ##786# it will reset everything. Once you perform hands free activation you should be back up and running. After that make sure you flash a good mc2 baseband. After that you should be fine.
Quick question. You are on sprint and only flashing roms for the sprint phone? I have this happen when working on a couple ports from other note 2 variants.

Steps to hopefully fix your issues. Read through and download and copy all links to external sdcard before starting.
1. Perform a backup of everything (rom, internal sdcard)
2. Flash this twrp file from your current recovery http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/t0ltespr/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-t0ltespr.img
3. Under reboot options choose reboot recovery
4. Now in twrp choose wipe/format and select data, system, cache, and internal scard (/data/media)
5. Go back and select the data wipe option then type yes
6. When done go to reboot menu and reboot recovery
7. Now install Billards back to stock mc2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2086769 but do not reboot and do not wipe anything
8. Now install this to gain root (do not use twrp's root option) http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1584076&d=1356201390
9. Now you can reboot. The red light will come on and phone will display weird stuff then reboot.
10. Now it will take some time to boot but you will be on stock mc2 with everything updated to latest mc2 setting.
11. Dial ##786# phone will reboot
12. Dial ##"your msl"# and change both number sets to 10 0's once done phone will reboot
13. Do Hands free activation. If that does not work dial *228 and let that run if phone does not reboot reboot it yourself.
Now if everything went according to plan you should now have full service. Since this updated everything to factory stock mc2 you will need to install a custom recovery again. Also the mc2 baseband provided with the rom has always been stable to for me. Since I am flashed to cricket I had to reflash the phone everytime this happened to me but thankfully I flash it myself so it was easy.

NO matter what Rom I put on after this happens there is no network,,wireless works fine and so does the roms. Right after I rommed the ASOP latest nightly I called to make sure it was working fine and it was..Let ggogle put all my applications on and update them and went to bed,..When I woke up there was no network...So i used recovery and used 3 or 4 of my backups but none of them solved the network problem. I opened up backups to see if there was a file missing and I cant find any...Im willing to send some $ if someone can help me. By the way this has happened 3 times before but all sprint guys do is get me another phone and Im afraid thats going to be stopping soon..I just need to find out why this is happening so it doesnt happen again..thanks

If the method above doesn't work do you happen to have a backup of your nv items or your efs partitions?

OK:cyclops: did everything again just exactly as prescribed when i dialed the ##786# it does not reboot but go to a page that says rtn on top with 2 options view or reset...that's where I'm at ...I rebooted myself and did the ##157680# which is my msl # and it does nothing. So I pushed reset and a screen says enter msl # and i did ..nothing then I put in 0000000000 and nothing happens..this is where I'm at...thanks for your help I appreciate all
Try the hands free activation if that does not work try *228.

This may help I believe it sets your partitions right. This is for 4.1.2 MC2.

Do have IMEI under about phone/status? Does it display your number or anything?
Sounds like you need to Odin flash a stock firmware with tz, param and modem..With a pit file so it flashes to the correct partition..
I'm on Verizon and this happened to me..lost everything under status..I flashed what I stated above and it fixed everything. .
If that doesn't work flash your KIES image and after re root and unlock your phone:thumbup:

Did you try and flash the zip I posted? It sets your carrier partitions! It is for the Sprint Galaxy Note 2...I've used it...it works. Just saying it couldn't hurt to try.

What about flashing the mk4 rom of your choice, then flash the newest mk4 modem..? I have the file if needed. Works great!

the phone is only 2 week old with the latest kit-kat installed from them..I think I read somewhere that if you go backwards to and older rom like mk2 it screws the phone up because of the knox??? anyway yes I flashed it but honestly Ive done so many things ,so many times,,,every modem, mk2, mk4, rooted , unrooted , different recovery...I even got the note 2 toolkit updated donated version...nothing is working,perhaps the order in which i do these things may be off but when the phone is supposed to reboot it doesnt , when its supposed to show a number it doesnt..actually the more I do to it the worse it gets..It will go into recovery and odin mode, but some of the things that were sure fire arent even working...Yes as long as still have the phone i would try it can you send me a link for those files..thanks
