Did you turn your 4g on first? You wont get a mac address unless it is on.
I also have the same problem. I went from CM6 to Fresh 3.2; i updated the radio and wimax radio and my 4G is stuck on "scanning" and says MAC address is unavailable
Take your phone to sprint. They will replace them. Just tell them your 4g is not connecting. As of right now I don't believe that there is a fix.

not true, he probably botched up his 4G while flashing somehow. The development section has a few dedicated threads with the necessary steps to fix a bad mac or broken 4G.
Also, the phone will not show a mac address until 4G actually connects

I had this same problem with my phone. I got a new phone, rooted it, and set it up on Fresh 3.1.0.2. Before I rooted my 4g worked fine. After flashing Fresh 3.1.0.2 it stopped. My MAC address still matched, but for some reason I could not get my phone to get passed scanning.
If you turn your 4g on, and let it try scanning you should eventually get a MAC address to show up. At least I did.
What I did to get it working again was I flashed the latest radios, and changed ROM's. I was on Fresh 3.1.0.2 and flashed up to 3.2, and all works well.
Also, make sure you know you are in a 4g area. I thought it was just me at first, but I tried some co-workers 4g and found that I wasn't getting 4g coverage in an area where I thought I had had it before. So just make sure that's not the problem.

4g WiMax Broken
So I live in area with 4g, worked perfect when i got phone, but then I went out of town for a month to area w/o 4g & rooted it, and have since flashed couple of different roms.
Now I'm back in 4g area and it doesn't work, and not sure when in rooting/flashing rom process it stopped working
I used simpleroot, and flashed burntdroid, then couple other roms I didn't like (virus, baked snack, maybe 1-2 others) now back to latest version of burnt. Before each rom flash I cleared all those things in recovery that they said to clear (devlik/user data?/some other stuff). I did flash kernel couple of times in between from one's on this site. I have never flashed a new radio, or wimax.
Did try turning on 4g like someone said, and then it does bring up correct wi-max mac address that matches one under my battery. But 4g does not show up at all on top of screen at all to show that it has connected.
I was going to try those procedures for ppl w/ broken 4g, but I never tried to flash a wimax radio, and my mac address seems to be correct, so not sure if I need to do that. What's wrong?? Should I flash a wimax radio?
ok so looking at some other threads trying to figure this out, looks like I may need to flash new radios.
Have some questions:
In one tutorial it says to flash newest radio BEFORE flashing new custom rom, any issue with me doing it now AFTER I have flashed custom rom?
Do I just take the latest radios from this thread: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485 and put them on my sdcard, and boot into recovery and flash em??
Toast had a post saying to do that, but one step says "Reboot to recovery and run .sh or .bat file to gain custom recovery"
Is this just holding vol down and power to get to custom recovery? What is this run .sh or .bat stuff? Also what's the difference between Radio and NV one's listed on that site?
well flashed the newest radio and wimax (not NV cuz still couldn't figure out what exactly that was) and didn't brick anything and wimax mac is stil correct, but still no 4g when im in area that should be getting it!
I ended up wiping the fresh rom and flashed the evio one and now I have blazing fast 4G, maybe the fresh rom just has issues with 4G
Sent from my EVO using XDA App
Maybe just a clean wipe will do the trick... I flashed the newest ota and wiped everything and my 4g magically started working.

i Have an internal Intel wimax card and planing to get clear spot 4g to run on sprint line. i was wondering if i clone the mac address of my htc evo to another wimax device and keep my 4g off on the the evo then the other device should work or is it more to do to make it work. please and thanks
You would also need the RSA keys
but what to do with the rsa keys or apply it to the other wimax device
You can't transfer the wimax/rsa keys from one device to another.

The keys are encrypted and tied to the serial number of your Evo on Sprint's side of things.

This. Unless you can find a way to have the evo report a different sn to the tower, cloning the key would not work

To clarify both the key and the SN are tied to each other. You would have to regenerate the RSA key (which is encrypted) for a new SN. Have fun trying since only RSA is the Master Key holder. Break their encrypted key you can rest assured that you'll be getting a visit from some fine people from some three lettered agency.
So long story somewhat short, I purchased a Epic Touch 4G on Craigslist to find out that it had a bad ESN because the previous owner did not pay the bill. I searched out a possible fixes for this and found someone who flashes phones to Boost. He said he would be able to take the settings from my Evo 4G and place them on the ET4G to make it work. For the service I gave him my phone so he could flash it to Boost for himself. He set up the phone and it was sending and receiving calls, data seemed to work no problem as well. So I had him clear all the data, meid, memory ect.. from my old phone (evo) and I went on my way. I'm kind of savy about all of this, but just wanted someone else who knew what they were doing and had all the utilities to take care of it.
Anyway, upon driving around with Pandora on in the car I noticed the data would drop quite often. I looked into the settings on the phone and found that profile 1 contains a boost user as the username and it appears to have all the settings for someone else's account that uses boost. He must have copied the wrong settings onto my phone.. my original phone settings are now gone. So I don't think I have any hope of recovering the HA SPI, HA pass, AAA SPI and AAA pass. What can I do? I share a family plan with my wife, can I copy the settings from her phone onto mine? Will both phones work with the same settings, or will this cause problems? 2 phones using the same settings. I imagine it won't because apparently i'm using someone else's account for data currently. If copying her info would work, what do I need to be sure to transfer over? My understanding is NV Items 465, 466, 1192, and 1194 is all I need? I'm using the Evo > Boost and EPT4G > Boost guides to get an idea about how to do it.
Sort of long and a lot of questions. I hope someone out there can give me a little information. I guess worst case I could pick up a cheap used phone, swap to that and then swap those settings back onto the EPT4G
If he copied over the MEID, M.IP Profile 0 data, and 1192+1194 correctly from the old phone, you should be able to update profile. That will remove the incorrect Profile 1 from Boost and populate the correct Profile 1 values.
Copying the data from your wife's phone won't work.
I just activated my ET4G on Boost myself first with a incognito then xfering all the setting to the Epic Touch while back. After reading your post, my first question is do you even have a boost account, since your saying there are setting username...etc from someone else.
He doesn't use Boost. He stated he couldn't use the phone because it has a bad ESN. That means he's on Sprint.

Lets see if I can code his post, op had an evo on sprint/bought the ET bad ESN, so the guy copied the sprint EVO to the ET so that the ET will work with Sprint, and the guy kept the EVO for himself.
If that is the case then there should be no Boost info on the ET which was coped from the Evo how that info got there is a mistery since the Evo was pure Sprint.
Could he just enable Profile 0? which seems to be the sprint profile.

So true only the flasher guy knows, unless something is up as in shady, since someone else boost account profile is on the phone. Ooooo well. Op kept us update this could be interesting.
reset the data profile and update it... if it was done correctly you should be fine.. if not youre ****ed
I can't make phone calls, it keep telling me my account can't be validated. I activated my account 3 days ago using a sanyo incognito and I ust that phone to flash it. The internet is working on the phone and it has the 3g symbol on the phone also. Also I'm having trouble zeroing out the meid and esn. Every time I do it and go back it check the numbers are still there.
I'm running
Android 2.2
Baseband 2.15.00.11.19
Hardware version 0003
It won't validate until you get them completely zeroed out and replaced with the incognito numbers. Pretty sure this topic is frowned upon here though.

I did zero them out but every time I reset the phone n check they come back. Are just suppose to zero out the first column or go through the whole 16 rows n zero out the numbers you see that are in your meid/esn?
There is a much easier way to do this, pm me if you still need help!

I have read through the entire thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1696621 which has helped me a lot. I noticed not suppose to ask help on that thread so I figured I start one here and you may delete my post I made on that thread.
I have a Verizon Nexus SCH-i515 I would like to get working on PagePlus. I currently have talk/text working, but no 3g. I have Verizon Paranoid Android rom, sprint FC12 CDMA radio. Using PRL 52874 provided OTA *22800.
I tried using the script for ets that AutoPrime provided on the mentioned thread above, but I do not know the HA, AAA, or Akey. I do not know how to obtain these settings. I'm assuming this is why I can't get 3g working.
I have a Droid RAZR Maxx flashed to PagePlus and I didn't need any of these settings. It was basically ##PROGRAM, set MDN, MIN, and SID, then use CDMA workshop or DFS, set EVDO to rev.a, and disable R-UIM by setting to NV only.. power on, *#*#INFO#*#* change to CDMA Auto (PRL), done.. so I don't know how to get these AAA,HA, or akey from.
Reading around some people are getting these settings from donors, but I don't have an actual PagePlus phone. If anyone can help me I'd be very happy and greatly appreciated.
Back to reading the mentioned thread above for the 5th time, see if I missed something. Thanks!
OK, seems everything I read says I need a donor phone. Can anyone tell me why I didn't need this when putting razr on page plus? Did it get all the info ota? Guess I'll have to dig up my LG dare to use as a donor, if I can.
Is it possible to swap razr and nexus esn, get the info then swap back?
AAA, HA, Akey backup??
Ok, swapped phones, now I need to find how to get Akey, AAA, and HA from the Verizon RAZR maxx... in DFS > programming > general > cave > get reports A_Key cps-error bad-param
ssd-a cps-error bad-param
ssd-b cps-error bad-param
Now under DFS > NV > read
I get 466, 580, 889, 906, 920,1192 cps-error bad-param
So this phone has 3g and works but no akey, aaa, or ha?
Is there a way to record a log of an ota on the razr maxx to get HA AAA and akey?
Also is there a way to log the nexus trying to connect to see the error message?
Razr keys
Stop trying to get the keys from the Razr; they won't help. The only AAA and HA etc. info. that will help you is that of a phone that has been activated with working 3G on Page Plus. The Razr is most likely locked up (as for the NV items), so if you think you need the 3G data, go for a cheap, easily accessible phone (LG Vortex, pretty much any Samsung, etc.).
I can live with 1x on Page Plus with my Gnex, but I don't use data that much. You get very little data on PP anyway.
Use Autoprime's script for P+, then go in and use "NV Manager" with ETS (just to be super sure everything is as it should be--I think the script put my MDN where my MSID should be actually). This got me 1x, talk and text.
I'm happy.
God Bless!

My RAZR maxx is on page plus with full working 3g,talk,text.. that's why I thought it would work if I swapped gnex esn to the razr, activated it, then tried to get HA/AAA then switch back.. but couldn't get them.. Did you use a donor to get 1x? What radios, rom, and prl are you using? The script for P+ requires HA/AAA ,well could be blocked off with /// but thought these were needed.
I do have a Verizon LG Dare somewhere if I can find it, could use it as a donor. Problem is finding it.
HA AAA passwords no donor
Well I've been changing so many settings that probably never needed changed. Going through every setting in ets seeing what does what. After changing some settings and pulling down some OTA via *22800 I have been able to get HA and AAA passwords without a donor. I still have no 3g data though.
Plugging phone number, HA, and AAA into AutoPrime's ets script still does not get me 1x or 3g data on pageplus. So there is still something missing on his script, something wrong on script, or maybe my phone is just glitched.
I did read somewhere that Nexus on pageplus should use profile 0, I noticed in AutoPrime's script he changes profile 1 settings. Maybe I'll try changing these around or something.

try flashing a radio thats actually for your phone if it will even work anymore after flashing one not intended for it.
I can flash Verizon radio but its not programmable. Will settings stay? Ill try that I just wrote all values to profile 0 and 1.. set 0 active no data, set 1 active no data..
My ha pass is only 9... script says 16.. should I add some 0's to the end to make it 16?
Watching this thread closely. I have a gnex I'm trying to get on page plus with 3g.

HA AAA passwords no donor
As I thought tossed on Verizon radio, settings reverted back to what SIM was programmed for. So I tossed in a blank SIM, mdn, min, etc all 0's and not changable.. so tossing Sprint radio back on unless someone knows of a Verizon radio that will accept changes.

Well if there was a guide it'd be pretty easy, but with no guide and over thousands of setting combinations, I'm just doing trial and error..
I don't think anyone at all has a Nexus on pageplus fully working.. Using a donor or not.. No one has said anything in any of the forums I read or youtube, so guessing that no one has it working. Guy above says he has 1x on pageplus, but I can't even get that, and I think he is the only one. All I have is talk/text working flawless..
There has been about 2 people that say they have the Nexus fully flashed to cricket.. but I have not attempted that as I'd rather have pageplus. If I can't get pageplus I may look into cricket and compare their speedtests with virgin mobile and flash to one of them. I have donors for VM.

Yeah Sprint Nexus is a little easier as you don't have to worry about radios, your stock radios allow programming. And since you are already Sprint you don't need to flash a sprint rom to access some on phone programming menus.
alphahere has a Sprint GNex fully working on Page Plus. These are the steps he took to get it working.
alphahere said:
1) Had a donor phone - HTC incredible, cloned all values needed to the Sprint Galaxy Nexus.
2) Modified the verizon script using the values from the HCT incredible.
3) Ran the script with ETS
4) Lastly did over the air programming with verizon (pageplus).
5) Modified the APN to work for verizon mms.

I suspect you are having the same problem I'm having. I just flashed a Sprint GNex to Page Plus a few days ago. However 3G data is not working because I used a Droid X as the donor and as I have learned in the last couple of days Motorola has their phones locked up pretty tight. I'm unable to pull the NV items needed to obtain the HA/AAA/PPP keys.
In the next few days I'm going to try and find a cheap LG or Samsung phone and use that as the donor instead.

If you are using a Verizon ROM there's a patch you need to apply. Check this post.

On the GNex romming/rooting is a 1. Flashing a Sprint GNex is a 5 (autoprime's ETS instructions and scripts make it easy) and pulling the data you need from a donor phone can be a 5-10 depending on which phone you use as the donor.
Once you go through the process once though it's pretty easy.

I would anticipate the Fascinate to be pretty easy to use with CDMA Workshop/QPST/QXDM. As long as you stay away from Motorola...
