So I just got a used s3 from flebay (bad esn). Sprint Galaxy s3.
I dial ##3424# and I can get the phone to show up with a com port, connect with CDMA, but when I click read, it says ":: failed ::" next to ESN and number. So ok I thought maybe I got to send the SPC to it first, and since the old 16 digit pw does not work for 4.3 anymore, I flash it back to 4.1.1, connect via cdma to com port, but it says fail to send to phone.
- I've tried 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.3, and a couple diff modem. All give same result.
- I also tried to use QPST. In QPST configuration, the target port shows enabled, com19, no phone, usb. It does not want to recognize the phone as well.
Any ideas what it could be guys? I'm suspecting this phone cannot be flashed or even used.

I was working on CDMA Work Shop to update my NV items when i mistakenly wrote Galaxy S3 NV items which i had backup earlier.
Since im using a Sprint based CDMA handset in India i make sure i back up PRL NAM and NV items just to be on the safer side.
Once the NV items of GS3 got written on my Epic i lost my local network and my connection to CDMA Work Shop.
The phone booted, is in Airplane mode, it wont come out of it.
Now phone does not connect/detect in Diagnostic/Service mode. (##8778# - PhonUtil - USB - MODEM).
it detects fine in PDA mode.
I tried connecting my GS3 in service mode to check if i had the right drivers or if my PC had some other problems the phone just got detected fine.
Was on THUNDERHAWK III when all this happend.
I reset the phone to stock EC05 (just like when i got it) through odin.
problem persists, Airplane mode wont switch off, Pc does not detect the phone and i get a "Modem Exception Occurs" error when i enter MSL code whenever MSL is required.
Background Data works on WIFI but only for Gmail SYN, Market FC's just like stock browser.
Can anyone please help me.
I got it solved. I simply had to reset my NVram. So since I was on rooted stock Rom EC05, I just flashed EC05 modem.bin through Odin with PHONE EFS Clear checked. =-O

I have a samsung galaxy S3 (sprint) SPH-L710
I've been running into some problems flashing it over to boost.
I have the msl code.
I have a problem when I try to setup the memory.
I'm using CDMA Workshop 2.7.0.
I'm trying to setup NAM memory.
I bought the phone used. Clean ESN, it's been released from the provider, and it is only about a week old.
It came out of the box 6/25/2013.
I've tried watching several videos and tried to do the NV part.
Everything I make a call it says "please enter the telephone number you are trying to call."
It will charge them every time they call.
I've came into several problems with the NAM memory.
At the memory tab i try to read the Memory/Eeprom.
When I do this it says failed and writes 0kbs, then deletes the file.
Am I doing it right?
I really just want to flash the phone over.
Could someone please help me out on what I need to do.
Can I write it back with VIA_ESNWRITER or is it the same as in the back of the phone still?
all unknown meid,esn,imei,cdma radio,network,phone number

I have a samsung galaxy nexus by sprint. I was recently using CyanogenMOD 11. I put it into airplane mode and when i tried to turn if off, the radio would not come back... so I decided to go back to stock rom and flashed it back to Android 4.2.1 (GA02) via wugfresh toolkit. After flashing I noticed the phone was not picking up any bars to the cell tower so I first performed factory reset. After that was done I still was not able to connect to the cell network, so I let it upgrade to 4.3 via Wifi (works btw). Stll not connecting to tower.
At that point I remembered I may need to perform a carrier wipe and on my phone I entered *#*#72786#*#*, then it asked for the MLS number which I entered (double checked it with my carrier so I know I'm using the correct MLS ID) and after entering it, the phone returns the following error:
Modem Error
Modem Exception Occurs
And there is an option to push "yes" nothing else. If I press yes, it goes back to the dialer and nothing happens.
If I attempt a PRL or Profile update, I get the following message
Error
The PRL update could not be completed. Please try again later
If the problem persists, you may need to contact customer service.
Error: (Code: 8)Unknown Error
Also there is a line showing up during.
sprintaccount username(Device ID) is null...
Is there anything I can do to get the phone to connect to the network again?
Thanks,
As an update, it appears the radio is just not being recognized at all. Settings>about phone>Baseband Version = Uknown
I have attempted to flash different radios (GA02 and FH05) which says it was successful (TRWP) but still no radio. No idea what to do from this point.
My phone was working perfectly well untill one day i was unable to connect to the network.
In the about device option it shows unknown baseband. imei is also unknown. I re installed stock by using kies and it didn't work. I tried to replace the corrupted EFS folder with EFS professional it also didn't work. I am not well versed in this field but i tried my max to bring back my phone to life. i can now use it as an ipod. i desperately need it to bring it back to life. please do help. i have rooted my phone. is there any solution. You guys can come up with something!
