EDIT EDIT EDIT!!
Ok, it appears we finally got this working! Thanks very much to Megatr0n for figuring out how to get QPST to recognize our phone! Couldn't have done this without this/him and everyone else's hard work for who actually figured it out!
Please note, I take NO credit for this discovery, just passing along info from amazing hard work of others!
I got most of my info from this thread (thanks to youngstatus)!

Information on getting QPST to recognize your phone is from the PRL flashing thread--all credit goes to whomever came up with how to do this (and Megatr0n, who found this thread): http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1267893
Also thanks to cnstarz for figuring out some steps on this as well!
What this is:
Sometimes when my friends text/call me, it takes anywhere from 3-5 rings on their end until my phone receives the call, and it was a little annoying. I remember I did this trick on my hero, and thought I'd share.
What this does is changes the frequency the phone checks the towers for incoming calls, If you are like me, you have probably had times where you will have phone calls that only ring for like 5 secs and then the person hangs up. So i came across this little trick and it works as follows
The default Value 2=3.015434secs
The value i use is 1=1.507717secs
You can change this to how you see fit, I have tested and noticed there is no considerable drain on the batter at 1 and theoretically speaking putting it higher will conserve battery as your phone isn't constantly pinging the towers but i have never tried that
0= edit: (from jazzneel) I think this is reserved for emergency vehicles, so please do not use this in case! (not 100% sure)
1= 1.507717secs
2= 3.015434secs(Default)
3= 4.523151secs
etc.....
How to do it:
1. Install QPST
2. Make sure you have your phone drivers installed.
2.5 Make sure your Epic is not USB debugging mode, to disable, go to settings>applications>development>uncheck USB debugging
3. On your Epic, with the touchscreen dialer, dial ##8778#
4. Change the setting from AP to CP, then hit Home.
5. Connect your phone to your computer with the usb cable.
6. Your computer will automatically install the modem drivers for your Epic wait until you see the “device is ready for use”
7. Open QPST Configurations. Start>All Programs> QPST> QPST Configuration.
8. Click on the “Ports” tab and “Add a new port”
9. Select the “COMXX – USB\QC Diagnostic” and click ok, in my case the port number was 10, your port number will be different, if you see more than one, disconnect all your external devices such as external HDDs, phones, Bluetooth dongles, ect. If you don’t see a port. Disconnect your phone, restart your computer, connect your phone and try again, you might want to remember your Epic’s port number for future use. If you still don't see a port uncheck the box for "Show Serial and USB/QC Diagnostic ports only" and add all of the USB/Unknown ports. One of them should show an active phone.
10.Open up QPST > Service programming. Select your phone in the "Select an active phone" box and click on "Read from phone" and enter your MSL when prompted.
11.You will see the Slot Cycle Index is at 2. Change it to 1 and click "Write to Phone". Then reboot phone.
12. Once you're finished be sure to set your settings back to normal (go to ##8778# and change it back to AP and re-enable debugging mode)
-Your Slot Cycle Index is now changed to 1. You can verify after rebooting the phone by launching Service Programming and clicking "Read From Phone" again.

Same issue here. OP might want to recheck your steps to make sure it's relevant for this phone.
Sorry about that! I have updated the OP for doing the same method as the epic 4g. Hopefully that method works for people that want to use this.
Just to be clear, is this for rooted phones only?
Download QPST.
edit: i dont get prompted "Charging, mass storage, or tethered modem" when i plug in my usb cable.

What's the tradeoff on this? Increased battery drain?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
i went to settings>wireless and network>tethering and enabled usb tethering there, but QPST doesnt see the phone. i dont know what other drivers i need installed if i the phone is recognizable in odin, kies, and windows (mass storage).

One thing I tried on my epic 4g when I did this trick was install PDA net. For some reason that worked for me...
Hopefully I didn't give you all bad info, I'm looking into this, sorry!!

If i can figure out how to get it working on our touch, there could be a tiny bit of battery drain, but it will be somewhat negligible. However, if you are at a place that gets almost no service, then your battery will drain faster than it would without the trick. That is really the only drawback of this.
installed PDA Net, still no go. Are we supposed to actually do something with PDA Net, or just install it?

Just install it. For some reason, the drivers on my epic 4g wouldn't work, but PDA net would (for a lot of people), so I was hoping it would help....I know there is a way to do this, but I may need some help from someone who is a little more advanced.
I thought the method of the epic 4g and the epic 4g touch would be the same, but apparently its not....
Ok guys, I have it working.

usb tethering doesn't work in CP mode, and QPST still doesn't detect when you switch back to AP.

You're using incorrect settings. USB tethering isn't supposed to work and everyone has already confirmed that QPST doesn't work in AP mode.
The instructions specifically tells you to disable USB debugging mode (which gives you the USB option) and change the setting from AP to CP. After that, connect it to your computer and wait until it installs your modem drivers. Then, open up QPST and it will work.

but you have to enable usb tethering in order to do this... you can't enable it if it's in CP, at least mine isn't enabling even with usb debugging turned off.... in fact, tethering can only be enabled while usb debugging is turned on.

Did you actually try the instructions or are you just arm-chairing it? Because, I already did it and I used the same method to flash a custom PRL.
So I'm playing with the brand new Sprint S3 with LJ7 stock rom and is stuck at the very first step. Managed to get the COM port opened in the PC for Samsung USB diag mode, however, the DFS 4.0.2 and QPST failed to connect. I can choose the right port to open in DFS, but whenever I try to read from the phone, it shows researching device forever, and I'm certain the spc code is correct (got from the app getmymsl, and I could use it to edit the data file). In QPST, there is no device listed under that COM port (normally you should see the phone listed as SURF****)
Searched and followed this instruction: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...7&postcount=14 but still not working for me.
Just now I tried install the samsung usb driver and DFS 4.0.2 in a freshly installed windows 7 (64bit) machine, so the only COM ports installed/opened are the samsung's, but still the same symptoms.
I've heard people talking about downgrade ROM and radio for those software to work, but I also saw people directly using DFS for the newer ROM. What did I do wrong then? Please help.
BTW, I dial ##3424# to bring out the diag mode panel, and tried different combinations such as:
Modem / dm+modem+adb
PDA / dm+modem+adb
modem/ rmnet+DM+modem
pda/ rmnet+DM+modem
all gave me the same issue: having the COM port opened but the device could not be recognized.
However the phone was recognized fine as a media device.

Try doing a factory reset. I find that after you flash the phone once using ##DIAG#, you won't be able to flash it a second time after the firmware upgraded. That's just been my experience though. You would still be able to see the port, but it won't read/write. Instead use *#PATH# instead.
This is weird my note one always pops up with a windows folder and I just drop my new rom in there but my new I317 when I connect it to the computer is doesnt show up. It will charge the device but does let me get into it so I can drop my rom in there and install any ideas? I did a factory reset and I have all the drivers installed.

nope! both should be on MODEM
did it work?
Its did work when I changed them both to pda....I also stopped windows from searching for update for driver....You can then go to device manager see the error on usb com ports and direct which drivers to install from there...When I swtich to modem tho I have to do the drivers thing again.
I remember seeing a post to stop windows from installing thier own drivers just cannot seem where to find it
I installed Busybox Free on my phone (using the simple installer) and it allows my phone to connect to the PC just fine. I also have downloaded Samsung's drivers to my PC.
this hidden menu *#9090# Diagnostic Configuration not working on N900T model, it says "not supported". but it does exist on N9005 "the international version".
does anyone know where can i find this file in the rom to port it from N9005 to N900T?
or is there any different way to do so?

Thanks, but I don't need info....
I need to switch the diag port between USB and UART
Sorry, misread your message on my phone.
I am not aware of anyway to use that diag code on the SM-900T. It was removed.
I do know the info is in the EFS partition, but with recent updates to to the phone, I wouldn't mess with that as you may never get it back. Apparently, restoring EFS no longer works with 4.42
also that code is *#0808#

I have Z3X box I need to do a job but my computer doesn't recognized the phone and please before you go off telling me about USB drivers or to make sure USB debugging is on I'd like to let you know I do have all drivers installed in the computer I do this in a regular basis and I never have problems with any other phone
I have the phone plug in right now I dialed *#0808# put the phone in DM+MODEM+ADB mode all the phone does is charges
I put the phone in MTP+ADB or any other mode and PC installs all drivers just fine and I can browse through the files in the phone
I dial *#9090# and I get nothing
I get

Not Support
any help in the matter will be truly appreciated thank you for reading
Hi,
I searched a lot,but couldn't find a specific answer.
Is it possible to do QCN backup and restore using QPST successfully?Can anyone please confirm it?
or is it just not supported by QPST tool like nexus devices?
none?

You can use this guide here, to get the drivers and the QPST. Then maybe QPST will work, but I am not so sure.
http://www.androidbrick.com/unbrick-oneplus-one-two-3-qualcomm-hs-usb-qdloader-9008/
Here some more info
The method above almost works, well at least for me. Unless I'm just doing something wrong. My phone shows in QPST now but it's stuck in a downloading state for some reason.

Can you try with QXDM instead of QPST ?
I would really appreciate.
cheers.
PS: this is a guide for OP2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65456106&postcount=16 )
to set it to diag mode dial
*#801# and then select the Engineering mode.
I used QXDM Pro 3.14.594 to get the QCN in xml format (more readable).
Good Luck

you have to find a way to put the phone in diagnostic mode. I think there is a combination of keys,
these are for OP2

or with adb

Ok, found this...
It is from the OP3 forum, here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67470602&postcount=2
And it should work
If you switch a device into a hybrid mode like "diag,adb" it will dish out a new custom product id over the usb interface, one that combines both devices into one new one.
There are however no fitting diag drivers that match that product id.
If you want diag to work properly, switch your phone into single-diag mode by executing setprop sys.usb.config diag via a rooted terminal emulator from the phone itself, rather than doing it via an adb shell from a computer.
This will result in the proper diag product id being reported to your computer, allowing you to install the right driver.
As for the driver download, a simple google search will yield you the results.
Just search for "Qualcomm Diag Driver x64".
Edit: Oh one more thing... last time I checked I couldn't find a properly signed Diag driver for 64bit systems...
You will probably have to boot your computer smashing the F8 key repeatedly, and picking "disable driver signature enforcement" from the boot menu to temporarily disable the driver signature check, allowing you to install and use the Diag driver.
