Hi all. I'm pretty new to repairing ESNs, and I have run into a snag. I have an EP4G that has all the settings for the Ver1z0n network, but says that it is still on the $print Network. When I try to make a call, it says that it could not process my call and to reboot the phone and try again. Data is not working at all. Any guides or advice, I'm not sure what I missed, but here is the steps I took:
Recovered SPC from Gusto with CDMA Workshop
Read and saved PRL with CDMA Workshop
Used QPST to read and save all settings from Gusto
Used QXDM to retrieve HA and AAA
Turned off the Gusto
Used QXDM to repair the meid and esn
Used QPST to change and write all settings including PRL
Rebooted phone
Stuck at this point
I have also tried to OTA the EP4GT using *22890 and *22891
I have also tried flashing to custom ROM, and to get diag mode I flashed back to Stock ROM
Any ideas????
Also, seem to be stuck in roaming.
Okay, Got Talk and Text working... still need help with the Data Please
I use my epic 4g touch and epic 4g on verizon prepaid. Also used the gutso as a donor. They both work perfect. I would redo the entire process from scratch. Are you able to send texts and recieve calls?

Yes, I can send text and receive callse, still no data though. Tried the whole thing from scratch again etc. Has to be something I'm missing.
Ok you get text and calls. Can you place a call as well? You were able to pull the aaa and ha keys correct? Ya it seems like you must of missed something allong the way. Also which prl are you using?

Hey, sorry it took me so long to get back on here. Internet has been down for the last few days.
So, I can make and receive both text and calls.
I pulled the ha and aaa keys. (QXDM: requesetnvitemread ds_mip_ss_user_prof )
Using a modded 53038 PRL
At least internet is back on so I can continue to research the issue.
UPDATE!!!
Okay, so I flashed to a custom ROM thinking that maybe it was one of the Sprint Bloatwares blocking a data connection with VZW. Turns out I was correct. Now I can connect, but it is only on the 1x network... IE I will connect for a few seconds, but then disconnect. Just like it is trying to connect on a send then receive and then shutdown cycle. So now I am down to trying to get 3g working instead of 1x.
You may need to flash the alternate carriers fix.

Searching does wonders, it also helps you see what else is happening if you have issues.
In case you dont know after installing this, ##775# change PRL. I think you need your msl which there is a app in the market msl reader. you also need to put the prl that you want on there. if you dont have one, search for the prls.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=737594
I did find my prl# with ws and I think I can write or change the prl with ws, but I dont know what to write ?
Please help me. The prl that's installed on my phone won't give me data when I roam. When I dial ##775# I get a weird incomplete call message from Cricket. I'm supposed to have unlimited data while roaming. Now I have no data. I installed 2.3.3. Rooted EVO 4G on Sprint. Prl 01115.
EDIT: Never mind, I re-read what you posted. I had answered incorrectly.
you dont actually get unlimited data when you roam....you get 300mb or 800min...after that sprint will ask you to stop the roaming and soon will discontinue your contract. you get truly unlimited data if you use sprints network

My Sprint network services suck, and I still have my old metropcs account active.. so I was wondering.. would it be possible to activate metropcs data on my 4g touch activated for sprint?
Anyone? Not trying to steal service as my metropcs account is still active. I can use the modem mac from my old phone if needed,

... but note in that thread says 4G won't work. Might help you though.
I already know I wont get 4G, but working 3G sure would be nice. I want to try and set it up for testing. I am currently using forced roaming with the hacked verizon prl, but if I keep this up I will eventually be kicked from Sprint.
Yes, you can flash metro pcs onto your Sprint ET4G. I have mine flashed. However, I can't get mms to work. So, 3g works, text, talk...no mms. I had someone from Craigslist flashed it for $40...

Hey, I have been at this for some time. I'm very confused about some things. I currently have the Samsung Epic 4g Touch (Galaxy S2). To my knowledge my SPC is now set to 000000, and most the QPST settings (OR CDMA settings if you prefer) are set and correct.
I was wondering if there's anyway you can shoot me a response or PM with how to get everything working. I don't even have data at all. I can't seem to figure it out.
Doesn't Metro use Sprint towers?
If so, I doubt you will notice a difference in speed/signal strength!
I have also unlocked my phone and have set my setitgs correctly via QDMA and as far as I know MetroPCS has stopped updating ESN numbers unless its a Metro phone. any news on this?

so after flashing a rom and then going back to my back up that i made i no longer have service and i get a message at boot saying to activate my phone.
under about phone my phone number doesnt show up correct, the imei is incorrect. any help on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated while i continue to look on how to fix this as well
You can try ##72786# to reactivate it on the Sprint Network. If you Flashed the device to say Boost, or some other prepaid that will not work.
ill keep that in mind if i can get it to connect to the sprint network, got the meid & imei number, now its just the
phone number that is showing up as 000-000-0016
prl version 0
ive already flashed freezas md4 modem prior to this as well.
i am currently in the process of flashing a rooted stock rom and going to do a profile and prl update,
If you do what he told you it will reset your device on the sprint network and update prl and profile at the same time. It's the code sprint uses yo force activate the devices. Just saying save yourself 20 steps.

Have you read THIS
There are people offering remote flashing services on ebay. I have had 4 Sprint phones flashed to StraightTalk, using Verizon towers. 2 of them were S3's. If I find the link, I'll message it to you. If you have access to all menus, you can change the APN. You will need to use a 3rd party messaging app. They'll hook you up

So my father handed me his Galaxy S3 from Sprint and explained that he wanted it switched over to Boost Mobile because he had been having contract difficulties. Nevertheless, I've sucessfully rooted it and switched over the ROM to the stock Boost ROM and had begun changing over the APN data. I'd found a copy of the Boost APN settings and was able to restore that .xml file to the phone to get standard phone calls and text messages to work on the phone.
From this point forward is where things get complicated. I can not seem to get data and mms to work and have tried everything to get it to work. I've tried the ##72786# and the only thing it seems to do is reboot the phone and require that I re input the PTN and MSID. The phone itself is running KitKat currently and has the NDC version of the stock Boost ROM. Any insight as to how I can get this phone ready to go with at least 3G? (LTE's not really a thing here) Thansk!

PS The network name is called Samsung for what it's worth. Not sure if that has to do with anything.

You can't simply change it over to Boost by putting a boost rom on it. You have to call Boost and get them to switch the phone over. You don't have data because your phone isn't on a phone plan . Call boost and get the phone activated and you'll be good to go.

I'm so sorry but I may have under-explained this situation. I grabbed the ESN and MSID from a donor phone that we had laying around, and wrote them to the S3 using a combination of DFS and CDMA Workshop. The ESN from the donor phone was then registered to Boost Mobile and everything went smoothly until I tried to grab for data. This would be the problem that I'm facing. Calling boost might work, but I'd have to be careful what I say lest they be on to my evil schemes (lol). What I believe it needs is a data profile update, since I'm not too sure I've programmed it in ##DATA# properly. Alas I'm trying to look for a workaround so that I can get into the phones menu and connect to the Boost Mobile Data network, but I'm kinda lost as to direction.
