When add settings of my carrier in DFS (cdmatool), it is not saves them. Who can help what can it be. Or it is just need to enter right APN settings? I'm new in this. Sorry for bad English. May be some one know what I'm doing wrong. Please give me advice.
Solution:
- as it turns out you need to put zeros in line 39939 (NV Items -> 39939 | NV_LG_DATA_PPP_CARRIER_I | User | - - | 1 | 2byte), than do everything like described in DFS. Also 3G Rev B works well (DFS -> tab Data -> mode -> RevB_MFPA)

I never used DFS.. But from what I remember from way back..
After adding the ESN to your carrier
I would flash the prl and activate the phone...
If the Internet wouldn't work... Then I would need to manually enter the APN settings.
Never did and LTE phones though..

I'm afraid that won't work either. The phones EFS won't let the manual write stick and I can't figure out why either. I've been trying since I've had the phone. I have mine flashed to Verizon but only 1X. I was looking at the thread on backing up this phones EFS to you computer and was wondering if I could be backed-up and changed while on a PC then copied over the existing EFS. I don't have time to try it right now so if anyone else does give it a "go" and let the rest of us know if it works.

Congrats!! You are the only person I have heard of that has been able to flash to another carrier and get full speed 3D. May I ask who did it and what it cost? (PM me) Also, what do you mean by "config" exactly?

I hope you are able to figure out how they did it soon because I can't stand having a [email protected]#$$$ paper-weight. LOL. By the way, after I flashed mine, one of the main bugs is the "hands free activation" notice that pops up every time it gets turned on or up from sleep mode. Is there a way to delete the file that controls this or at least permanently turn it off?

The hands free activation is an app that runs automatically at startup. You can remove it from /system/app/OmaDmclient.apk or uninstall "Update Device" with Titanium Backup.
Sprint likes to change up the app in its devices, but it seems to have the common thread of "omadm" in the apk name.
Hope that helps.
SOLVED
So I installed CWM-SuperSU_v0.87.zip, got Wicked v10 loaded and my SD card stopped working. Tried clearing cache/resetting to defaults. Didn't work.
Downloaded T999UVDLJA_T999TMBDLJA_TMB and restored to factory. external SD started working again but now I'm in 2G mode.
I noticed my IMEI had been wiped, so I restored that using NV-items reader_writer...
I didn't back up anything before I did this, and I'm probably going to pay for it. I don't care if I have to ship this off to a trusted member to get it fixed, I'd rather just not have to spend another $300 to get a 4g phone again.
If anyone has some input, I'm all ears. I'm not completely daft, just careless.
What phone do you have?? If all was right with what you installed and you have checked you have "3g/4g" enabled not just GSM then follow all the steps in the recovering 4g thread. This has been brought up about 1000 times in this forum about restoring it and still not seeing "4g" just follow steps and read up.

I'm running basic stock firmware/rom now - so I don't even have an option to turn off/on 3g/4g. My network mode is set to 'LTE/GSM/WCDMA (Auto Mode'.
I tried using the search function on the site, but it's broken - figures =D If you have it bookmarked could you toss that thread my direction?
Thanks for the quick response, if you need me to get more info, just let me know the steps.

the link on that thread is dead... on the last page there's a link to a tool on google play, is that it?
Between that and the youtube video are options. I don't know I've never lost mine.

I've actually already recovered the IMEI using that method, but I'm thinking that my phone has a damaged/corrupt ERI.

I know your pain. I was testing roms last year with my g2x and we ported a o2x rom and it made me not be able to send sms over 4g, only 2g lol. That was a huge pain haha. Whn the search function pops back up and I can look closer I'll get into it, at least for today.

I have the same problem with my IMEI disappearing an only being on 2G. Did you have a backup of your IMEI or how did you restore it with the NV-items reader_writer? I am curious because I don't have a backup of my IMEI and I have that util...but the other utility to re-write the file to be uploaded seems to have disappeared off the internet and the only copies I have found have been infected with multiple virus'.
Thanks in advance.

Didn't take any sort of precaution... I just started flashing ROMs without reading anything. I actually ended up hard bricking the thing and I'm now waiting for the phone to come back from a JTAG repair. I ended up buying another S3 off of craigslist and doing a nvbackup and andromodizer backup before I did anything else. I'm now running cm10.1 with 4g. I'll probably just keep my 2g'd phone as a backup. My only guess as to the now MIA program is that it could be used to circumvent IMEI blacklists... Which sucks.
Guys, I don't know what happened but it's working on my Sprint G2. Someone help me figure out what I did. All I did just a min ago was enable it, got the error, then enabled it again. Bam, i'm connected. HOW? I played with some build.prop settings and something over in SQLite editor in com.providers.settings I think it was. The other thing, i'm stuck in 1X coverage. Maybe the entitlement check thing is trying and gives up before it gets a response, then just goes through?

I got mine to work too after editing that file with Sqlite, but it only worked once and with the built-in tethering. I couldn't get it to work correctly again after turning it off and on.

Hmmm, mine gives the error once or twice, then just starts working. I'm posting tethered right now. I managed to get it onto ehrpd and speed are pretty solid. I need to get my directional antenna hooked up to my Cell Booster so I can pick up the ecsrb tower instead of the halfass tower i'm on now!
EDIT: Of course I make this post and it stops working, lol. No idea why outta nowhere it works. It almost tells me it's using some kind of http authentication and if it can't connect it goes ahead and lets you use it.
EDIT2: After a reboot it works again. WTF is with this thing!
Ive been following threads on getting tethering for sprint working and I dont understand why we just dont keep it to one thread. Also, Im not sure anyone can figure out whats going on with how you got it working if you dont post the changes and edits you made to the files in detail. It might help more if others knew exactly what you did.

Can you post the lines you changed and the detail steps on what you do? What files did you modify in the android filesystem? I am sure this can be done easily but we need more description. The more information you can tell us how to replicate your situation, the better it is that we all can try this solution out and hammer out the kinks so that we get a working wifi tether for Sprint version.

Well okay.... but what files did you change and what changes did you make??
Could be you are onto something, but until you provide that info it doesnt help you or anyone else figure it out.
Have you tried connecting wifi tether while data off or in airplane mode?
Maybe it's checking with Sprint before tethering. I dunno anything about this stuff. Just speculating.
Thanks for your work on this man.

Basically Sprint wifi tethering still doesn't work. There is no proof that it is working because we don't even know the method the OP used.

The OP doesn't even know what method he used, what a Jackass. Sorry guys, major software upgrade at work, been swampzilla'd. I know there's something else in sqlite editor, but it's not working. The best luck I had was when the phone was in 1x, then would switch to eHrpd after tethering was enabled. Build.prop and screenshot of what I added to settings.db\global in sqlite.
Ok, so we just dump a couple files and say have at it?
Dude.... step -by-step.... what EXACTLY did you edit and what changes did you make??
How many times do we need to ask the same question?
If you seriously dont know then say so and have a mod delete this thread cause right now its nonsense.

Seriously. If the OP cannot easily explain the changes he made to which file step by step then the mods should delete this thread to avoid confusion.
Yep you guys are right. Close the thread. Works if I launch hotspot from 1x coverage, then it stays on. Sorry I can't be of more help, but the last line in sqlite editor and the obvious "tether" lines that are easily searchable in build.prop.txt

I have been using a SM-N900T on the ATT network by changing the APN settings, and it has been working perfectly until today. I have no internet connection, but it shows full bars, and I can still call and text. I've tried restoring to a earlier NANDROID, and even went to an ATT store and had the guy (who happened to know exactly what I did and has done it himself for his phone) try to fix it, but nothing has worked.
I posted this in the AT&T section too, but no luck so far. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Same here both with AT&T and T-Mobile. All you need to do is call nearest store and ask if they're experiencing network problems.
