I'm trying to wirelessly tether my unrooted Droid Incredible to my rooted Nook Color per the instructions below but I'm having difficulty getting QPST to communicate with my phone. Can someone explain how to do it? Tried the HW Virtual Serial Port but can't get that working either. Hit ##DIAG and still it does not show up in QPST.... Any help? Thanks!
1) Download/install QPST (google it)
2) Put phone in modem mode (Settings, Wireless, Enable Dial Up)
3) Run QPST Configuration on your computer
4) Add the port if it doesn't show up (go to Ports then click on Add New Port. Uncheck "Show Serial and USB/QC Diagnostic Ports Only". When you see your phone you can add it).
5) Once you see your phone in QPST go to the Menu, Start service programming.
6) Click "read from phone" (password is 000000)
7) Tab over to M.IP
8) Change the profile 1 under M.IP to enable and change tethered NAI to [email protected].
9) Change the profile 0 from [email protected] to [email protected] (just like for profile 1).
10) Click "write to phone"
You don't need qpst to change that.

but to answer your specific question, I would first reload your drivers. I think htc sync has them for ##diag mode.
yep almost always a driver issue.
i would root and use the link provided. probably much easier.
Genius! That worked great silverramsrt! Thanks so much!

If your data connection in HTC One V is getting lost or not getting connected at all, try following steps.
You must have flashed NV Dump already.
Your phone must be activated via *228 already.
Just perform below mentioned steps :
1) Put your phone in Diag Mode by dialing ##3424#
2) Get HTC Diag Mode driver if you don't have it already
3) Download DFS Demo version from DFS website.
4) Connect your phone with DFS, send SPC
5) Now, go to Programming tab -> Data ->
6) Click Read
7) At PPP tab, write "net" (without quotes) to SIP NAI, UID, Pwd field.
Restart the device and you gotta go!
Here is what I’ve done to manually update the PRL on my new G2. I don’t want to debate the reasons for this. But here’s one way to do it without rooting.
NOTE: This method, to obtain your MSL, only works on the the ZV8 and ZCA software versions. They changed something in ZVC and later versions.
Note: The easiest way to get MSL/SPC code is to just dial ##443336772# on your dial pad and you don't even have to be rooted.
Note: SPC is your MSL. They are the same things.
Note: All this was done on Windows 7-64 bit.
Part 1, Connecting the phone in diagnostics mode:
Install USB drivers. http://www.lg.com/us/support-mobile/lg-LGD801BK. Use the Tmobile D801 USB drivers since it is the same as the AT&T drivers and the LS980 page only had directions to update drivers via the LG Mobile Tools.
On the phone, enable USB debugging in developer options (tap the build # in Settings > About Phone > Software Information, 7 times to enable developer options).
Dial ##Diag# (##3424#) enable diagnostics mode.
Connect phone, select "charge only"
Check windows device manager to see if you have a com port. It should be listed as “LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port (COMxx) (xx=port #).
Part II, Get your SPC/MSL:
Get Basic Flasher http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2394499. (Great tool! Please thank the poster "bigfdaddy2” and make a donation at tiny.cc/oriax123donate if you like it.)
Open Basic Flasher, password is oriax123.
In Basic Flasher:
A. Click the “Scan” button.
B. Select the “LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port (COMxx)” and ensure the COM port on the drop down menu next to the "Scan" button matches the COM port listed in the display section (see attached screen shot). If it does not, manually select the correct COM port in the drop down menu that matches the LGE device.
C. Click the "Connect" button.
D. Click the “Read Device” button. The screen should populate with you MDN, MIN and SID.
E. Under Method, select "LG"
F. Click “Read SPC”. The SPC field should populate with your SPC.Note: Stop here and disable the DIAG mode (dial ##3424# and select disabled) if all you want is your SPC/MSL.
Part III, Update your PRL:
Click the “…” next to the PRL field and browse to the file location of the PRL you want to load, select the PRL. In Basic Flasher:
A. Click the “Send SPC” button. The dialog will show “Device Unlocked”.
B. Click the “Provision” button. The dialog will show that the MDN, MIN and SID have been written and the phone will reset.
C. On the phone, go to Settings > About Phone > Status and see if it shows you new PRL number.
D. On thee phone dial ##3424# and disable the DIAG mode.
I was also able to connect the phone to DFS (after getting my MSL with Basic Flasher). But didn’t have success writing the PRL in DFS. I used this 16 digit password EBB4EDB0B8B8C2BD in DFS. It reported “Device Unlocked” but if I tried to write anything in DFS the com port would lock up. Not sure what the issue there is, perhaps it would work if rooted.

Thanks for sharing the steps. Did you have any problems enabling diagnostics mode prompting for SPC?
Dial ##Diag# enable diagnostics mode. * Newbie Post. If phone is not activated first, SPC will be prompted.*

Nope, no problem with accessing the menu.
When i first tried, it was showing the COM in basic flasher, now adb has installed and now i can't get COM showing so i can't access the info for my MSL
I can't get this thing to scan for my device. I have the adb drivers installed already but when I try to Scan in Basic Flasher tool, it keeps telling me "No Device Found". I even opened up a command prompt with adb and did a "adb devices" query and my device shows up.
Anyone else having issues or advice or what to do?
Slightly off-topic, is there a good way with ROOT to get your MSL? For some reason, getprop ril.MSL doesn't work in Terminal...

Mine shows the ADB interface and the com port in device manager too but not having any issue finding the com port in Basic Flasher. Maybe uninstalling and re-installing the drivers would help.

I added a step to set method field to "LG" before clicking the Read SPC button. I just noticed that I forgot that step when I repeated the process for the screen shot and got an SPC error with it set to "NV". Try reading it again, can think of any reason why it wouldn't work with root.

If you don't have the com port listed under device manager it won't work. You have to be in diagnostics mode (dial ##3424#) and have the USB connection on the phone set to "Charge only" for the ports to show up.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times. still won't show it. It did the first time, before windows downloaded drivers when i plugged the phone in.

I finally got it to work. I didn't have Diag mode enabled. I guess I totally skipped Part 1. However for Part II your procedure needs some additional steps. Suggested revision of your steps. Let me know if you like and if so maybe add that to the OP.
Part 2, Get your MSL:
1. Get Basic Flasher http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2394499. (Great tool! Please thank the poster "bigfdaddy2” and make a donation at tiny.cc/oriax123donate if you like it.)
2. Open Basic Flasher, password is oriax123.
3. In Basic Flasher:
A. Click the “Scan” button.
B. Select the “LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port (COMxx)”.
C. Click the "Connect" button.
D. Click the “Read Device” button. The screen should populate with you MDN, MIN and SID.
E. Under Method, select "LG".
F. Click “Read SPC”. The SPC field should populate with your SPC.

A few more slight changes in bold based on feedback from people that had some difficulty when trying out this procedure in Part 2.
In part 1, I updated the link and reference to the USB drivers to use the AT&T/Tmobile LG G2 drivers since they are made for the LG G2 vs. referencing Sprint Optimus G LS970 drivers. I personally use the Tmobile D801 LG G2 USB drivers for the LG G2 and it works fine on the Sprint model.
Part 1, Connecting the phone in diagnostics mode:
1. Install USB drivers. http://www.lg.com/us/support-mobile/lg-LGD801BK. I used the Tmobile D801 USB drivers since it is the same as the AT&T drivers and the LS980 page only had directions to update drivers via the LG Mobile Tools.
2. On the phone, enable USB debugging in developer options (tap the build # in Settings > About Phone > Software Information, 7 times to enable developer options).
3. Dial ##DIAG# (##3424#) enable diagnostics mode.
4. Connect phone, select "charge only"
5. Check windows device manager to see if you have a com port. It should be listed as “LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port (COMxx) (xx=port #).

Thanks again! I've seen people having problems with the drivers and the default behavior of the program to start with the lowest numbered com port. I hope these changes will make it easier for people to get their MSLs.

Thanks for updating the OP. Although I notice it says in the OP ##Diag# (##3434#) instead of (##3424#).
Btw I took your guide and made a sticky on another forum but made the instructions more generalized.

No problem since your guide has helped many folks obtain their MSL and I was able to verify that this method works to get my MSL. I am all for helping my Sprint brothers and sisters access their MSL to triband LTE testing.
If you are curious I did some B41 LTE testing last night and posted some screenshots in this thread below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2524824
I also did some further B41 LTE testing today on another tower and I almost hit 60 Mbps!!!!! Talk about making use of that Clearwire 2.5 GHz spectrum.
Deleted, found out you have to turn off anti virus to let this through, boy is this easy to use :good:
It is a very newbie question, what is the advantage of updating PRL, will I get more signal and speed on the different Roaming, at work I don't have any signal if update it to verizon Roming PRL, will I get good signal, please help me to find out.
thanks for your help.
Hi guys,
To enable AWS on SGH I317M Note 2 I have to use QPST software. I can't use it because QPST doesn't find phone even though in device manager it is listed as Samsung Mobile Serial Port (Com14) and has no problem. When I click "Ad Port" in QPST environment I see it as COM14-USB/QC Data Modem with "No Phone message. I tried different versions of QPST on different computers with the same result. I guess , problem is in the PhoneUtil settings (*#7284#} and ServiceMode (*#9090#} I changed to unlock the phone with Z3X box. Now it is unlocked and works properly.
To enable AWS I put the phone in debug mode, in PhoneUtil settings #*7284# I put both PDA, Qualcomm settings are set to RNDIS+DM+Modem. What else do I have to do to see my phone in QPST software? What did I do wrong that the software doesn't connect with the phone? Do I have to flash it or just change some settings in the hidden menu? How to do that?
Did anybody have this problem / How did you solve it?
Thanks
I am having this problem as well. Any one have the answer?
