Flashing Back From PagePlus to Stock Sprint - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I can get talk and text to work only by putting in the MDN & MIN manually. I have tried ##72786# and it wiped all my nam settings clean but kept pageplus data profile in tact. I tried replacing all the [email protected] with MEID(hex)@hcm.sprintpcs.com still no luck.
I tried: 61007.prl 60670.prl 01115.prl and still no OTA Profile Updating or PRL Updating.
I have a Note 2 and you don't need a working data profile to Handfree Activate it works over WiFi. I tried wifi on this epic and it disables itself right away requiring that 3G data.
I have teamviewer, qpst, and dfs installed if someone is willing to take a crack at it. I just wasted over 12 hours on this.

Touch Pro Internet Connection Problem

I purchased 2 Sprint TP's and reprogrammed them to work on the Verizon network. Both work for voice but only one can access the internet and I can not figure out what is wrong with the other phone. I am new to cell phone programming so my knowledge is very basic. I followed instructions contained on PPCGEEKS at http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=44663. I am using the stock VZW ROM, I've set the MIP according to instructions but when I try to connect at 1X with the one phone I get a message saying "error, network problem, dialing #777". I have tried to do a hard reset but can not do it for some reason so I have reinstalled the VZW ROM a couple of times and setup the programming according to the instructions on PPCGEEKS but I get the same error. What can I do to make this work? The MIP is retained when I reinstalled the ROM-I wonder if I could erase the MIP and redo it if that might not fix the problem. I do not know how to erase it of course. I have spent all weekend trying to get this to work and I really need help.
Thanks
p.s. I got the phone to work finally-not sure why but here is what I did. I found some software on the phone that would do a hard reset at settings/memory/clear storage tab-good stuff to use. I then verified with Verizon that my account was setup correctly. Then I put the old phone back on the network and tried to access data on it and it worked ok so I then put my TP back on the network. Evidently when I did this, it rewrote some information that it was not writing before to the Verizon computers when I did *228 3 because I was then able to get data to work on 1X. After that it works fine. It took me forever to figure this out so hopefully this message will save someone time in the end.

AAA missing from NV! Am I out of luck?

I have an evo 4g on Sprint, HW rev 3. Was originally running CM9, but that's irrelevant to this problem...
So, I tried to update my radio last week. The first attempt broke the radio -- it was a bad download, I guess. I was able to get a new one over using RA recovery and successfully flash.
I got into a Sense rom, then had no data. Tried profile reset, no luck. Tried ##RTN# reset, no luck. Every time, the phone activates successfully and I can make calls, but data isn't provisioned and I can't get 3G data (4G works fine). Error 67 all over the place, even when trying to update profile.
After tons of research, I found out that it was not authenticating to the 3G network even on Profile 0. Here's the punchline: Using QXDM I read out my AAA secret, it is all zeros! NV positions 465, 466, 1194, and 1196 all read back as zero. Somehow they got wiped.
Is there any way to recover these on my own? If not, can Sprint reset the NV registers to something useful?
Reprovision the data services.
##rtn#
It forces hands free activation.

[Q] PagePlus Data Service doesn't work with Cm10/Cm10.1? [Solved]

I used to have working data from Pageplus with most of the stock roms & cm7.2, but since the day I moved to Cm9 onward to cm10.1... Data is not working anymore!
I tried multiple APNS programs like "APN Backup & Restore", "HiAPN" and converted them into system apps.
Flashed Epic4G_alt_carrier_data_fix.zip also but still no data.
But nothing changed and the spotty 3G icon on top shows from time to time, but it has no use other than draining my battery... any ideas???
Okay it turns out I missed up something while I was playing with qpst/workshop/dfs, and because of it the data totally stopped from working on all of the Stock and Cyanogen roms that I have installed and tried, so it's not only CM10 as I had thought before...
So I tried to copy the earlier settings for those programs from just looking the screenshots that I had taken of qpst, or even copy the settings directly from a Verizon Motorola Devour that I have, but that didn't help either!.
So I went a head and used the last option that I had... "Odin3 v1.81" to be exact and back to stock (Odexed-Rooted-CWM-Busybox-EH06 leak.tar) with the option "Phone EFS Clear" Checked. as a full hard reset.
After the hard reset, my phone booted fine to the newly installed stock rom, but I found out that my phone didn't lose all the data that I had played with in qpst only, but I also lost my Pageplus service on this phone!!!. So my Epic went back as just as a fresh sprint phone from the factory (all this happened because I checked the odin setting "Phone EFS Clear") .
To fix this I tried to dial Pageplus reprogramming number *28900, but it directs me to sprint activation instead!..
Thankfully I remembered that I had backed up qbst settings earlier before I use odin, so I went a head and loaded it up to my phone. The Pageplus service came back, but every time I try to make a call I hear an automated message from Verizon that says ""there was an error in processing your call". reprogramming again with pageplus number here didn't work either...
So I went to Pageplus website and sent a support ticket, and they replied within few hours suggesting to reprogram the phone again but with the data turned off this time. I followed the instruction and this time it worked and my phone can make phone calls again! and now I have my Pageplus service back with the data working finally on CM10.1... phew~

Phone won't work on Sprint Network after update

After my update to Jelly Bean 4.3, my phone would no longer work on the sprint network (it would only dial out, except calls, and have data if the phone was roaming). I ended up formatting the phone and re-installing everything with no luck. I called sprint to figure out the problem and they indicated I needed to have the network reprogram the phone. On the Sprint Galaxy S3, the following command will redo all network programming on your phone.

[Q] PRL Error Code 6 MMS Not working!

PRL Error Code 6 MMS Not working!
Please help me out guys, haven't had this much trouble with prl's or apns ever but this is driving me crazy and couldn't find anything googling. So basically I had a stock ND8 sprint gs3. Wiped via factory reset then flashed twrp via odin then cyanogenmod11. This is when the problems started. I couldn't send mms. Looked at apn and it says there were over 1600 provider settings! Even had stuff for UK + Asia... Backed up my apns from my other working gs3 (16apns for sprint only ) and no difference. Then I flashed back to wicked7.3 and tried updating prl or profile and keep getting error code 6. Still shows the 16 sprint apns only. PLEASE HELP! TYIA
UPDATE: This is a service error, not your phone. I had to call Sprint. They reinitialized services and it was up and working within 5 mins.
