Sprint Touch Pro2 unlocked, data not working T-Mobile

I unlocked my sprint touch pro 2, flashed the edited radio posted here for the sprint version, and now I'm using it on T-Mobile
Phone/Txt works
Internet doesnt work
I have tried internet2.voicestream.com APN, wap.voicestream.com and epc.tmobile.com
It always says "can't connect for unknown reason"
I left the username and password fields clear
Any suggestions?

Have you tried out the wireless configurator? I'm sure they won't have your exact phone, but the settings should be close enough.

dead link....

Got it to work, oddly enough I had to delete the connection, then create it again
Didn't change anything, just deleted it and made a new one with the same settings...

Hi there,
You're doing exactly what I've been trying to do but unable to. i have been unable to get a steady signal from T-Mobile, and the rare times that I did, generally I was unable to get data connection working.
Can you tell me exactly which APN settings worked for you? thanks.

This is what I did after I unlocked and flashed the edited radio (for the sprint version)
Go into Settings>Phone>Network, select GSM Only and select MANUAL
Select TMobile
after this you should be able to make phone calls and get txt
then go to settings>connections>connections, select the top one (should be tmobile data) and select "manage existing connections"
go to general, then click delete
create a new connection, name it whatever you want,select GPRS 3G, use APN internet2.voicestream.com , no suername or password just leave blank, click finish
now you should be able to connect

Hi there,
I did exactly as you described, but for the most part it's not working. I am guessing I have a radio problem. Which radio are you using? Thanks again.
James

some people have problems connecting with certain APNs on tmobile. first try ecp.tmobile.com that SHOULD work and its the newer apn that they made for 3g/smartphones to use so it should be faster EDGE. and if its not working delete all connection settings make a new one. no pass or username. IF it dont work no matter what contact tmobile they helped me when i had an att phone with them

How to get the data working in the Epic 4g connected to boost mobile Version 0.85
I’m not responsible for any damage to your phone, this is for educational purposes only!! THIS IS FOR ADVANCED “FLASHERS” ONLY!!!
Hi this guide is to how to get the data working in the epic 4g that is ALREADY connected to Boost Mobile
Things that you will need
Samsung Epic 4g (root optional but HIGHLY recommended)
QPST 2.7 Build 323
QXDM Version 03.09.19
Boost mobile Incognito
Micro USB cable
CDMA Workshop 2.7
SPC-2700 Drivers XP 32bit Drivers (drivers for the Sanyo incognito, drivers uploaded)
Samsung Galaxy S Drivers
A hot girlfriend to cheer you up
What you will not need
An iPhone
To be discussing how to get the Epic connected to Boost Mobile
A wife
SPECIAL NOTES
Your old phone, the incognito, must had the internet\mms working before, make sure you had updated the profile and prl.
Other phones MAY BE ABLE TO WORK using this method, this guide will use the incognito because it’s a 3g phone and it’s really easy to extract needed info
If you are using other phones, MAKE SURE ITS A CDMA BOOST MOBILE Phone and 3G (evdo) ready. You will need the SPC\MSL of your older phone too
This guide includes basic info needed to have any CDMA phone 3g working in boost mobile, I know people with Evo’s, Fascinates, Eris in boost mobile…if the it’s a Verizon phone…the PRL needs to be changed to a Sprint one (latest one 03-18-11 is 60676)
FAQ
Why the Epic and not the iPhone 4?
Because is the hottest phone at the moment, Bad ESN epics can be bought really cheap, mine was $200 new in the box.
Why Boost Mobile and not Net10?
CDMA Boost Mobile runs on Sprint's Network, you will get the same 3g speeds, nice coverage, and its only $50 month with no contract. ( or lower with "shrinkage" enabled)
Will I get 4g free?
Short answer “no”..but you should Google around about this topic..you will be surprised.
Can I WIFI tether?
YES, but do not use the default MobileAP app, use "wireless tether for root" users, both the old and new version works.
What are the speeds?
Epic does not tell you if you are in a 3g or 1x network, both networks will show with a 3g symbol unless you have a modified ROM. 1x speeds are usually 0-200 kbps, 3g are 50-1400kbps here in South Florida
UPDATE 03-18-11
seems like people are getting 500kbps again in 3g...
Will updating to froyo, change ROMs, downgrading, and flashing to stock via Odin will have any effect???
YES, but so far you only have to change the MMS settings to the correct one (check step18), I have changed different ROMS, flashed back to stock via Odin without loosing my 3g settings..BUT flashing or upgrading your MODEM…WILL MOST LIKELY BREAK YOUR 3G
Ready...Fight
1. First you need to install the SPC-2700 drivers in your computer, download the zip folder and extract it in you desktop, inside the new extracted folder run setup.exe and select install and let it do its magic.
2. Connect your incognito to your computer and let all the drivers install, if you get the common error message about the drivers not been compatible with Windows XP let the drivers install anyway
3. Open CDMA Workshop 2.7 and select the COM port where the incognito is located and connect, in my case it was COM 13, if you don’t know which one is it, disconnect all your USB and Serial devices and try to connect one by one. When you find the correct one click “Read”
3.99 if you already know your SPC for the incognito skip steps 4 and 5, you can also call boost mobile and see if they give you your SPC, make a phony excuse like “hey I’m going to North Korea and I need my SPC of my phone just in case I want to use my incognito over there, thanks!!”
UPDATE!!!
IF you activate your incognito online on the very last step you will get your SPC, boost mobile gives it to you in case you need to manually activate your phone.
4.Go to the Memory tab and in the Memory / Eeprom section Read Address 0363:0000 with 65536 size, this will create a file so save it in your desktop
NOTE: you may be have to read it twice, a lot of times the phone will not respond, try again and again and again until you get a 64kb .bin file in your desktop, if it keeps to giving you a hard time, disconnect in CDMA WS and try again, or reboot both your computer and the phone and keep trying
5. Here comes the fun part, do you like the game “where is Waldo?”, if so then you are going to like “where is my 6 digit SPC”, open the bin file in notepad, you will see a bunch of strange digits, you are going to be looking for the only 6 digit number that is together. So maximize your notepad and start scrolling up and down, right and left.
6. Had Fun? Well fun is over.. Close everything and Open QXDM, Select Options, Communications and select your port number, and select ok. Select View, New, Common, Command Output. Now in the white command box located in the lower part of the program type the following commands:
spc YOUR6DIGITSPC
<ENTER>
requestnvitemread ds_mip_ss_user_prof
<ENTER>
You will get a bunch of data, it will start with the DIAG TX Item section, ignore this part and go down until you see the DIAG RX(check step 14 for an example) item section, select and copy this part to the end of the output to a notepad text file and save it as “sprint”
Now again in the command input box type
requestnvitemread ds_mip_ss_user_prof 1
<ENTER>
Do the same for the new output but save the notepad file as “boost”
7. Close everything, we almost done with the incognito, open QPST configuration go the Ports tab and add a new port, select your port number, if nothing shows up uncheck the “show serial….blah blah” box and it will show your port number, select it and add it, you will now see your COM port with your phone connected. If it’s disabled, enable the port.
8. Now start client “service programming”, select your active phone, Read from phone, input your spc, after its done, save to file, save in a safe place, preferably in your p0rn folder. Close everything and turn off your incognito and give one last kiss to it and put it away.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT EVER TURN ON YOUR PHONE AGAIN
10. Install the Samsung galaxy s drivers. Connect your Epic and dial ##8778#, it will send you to the ultra secret menu and select in both options MODEM, let your computer install the drivers and open CDMA workshop again.
11. Connect to new created port in CDMA workshop (go back to step 3 if you need help with this). Go to the security tab and in the Password section delete all the Fs and send 01F2030F5F678FF9 it will give you the epic’s SPC, write it down(make sure you select the “custom password” selection)
11. go back to the step 9
12,..ohh there isn’t one? Well lets continue. Close CDMA and open QPST, add the new port for the epic and start service programming, here you will open 2 new connections, the active phone and one offline “SURF6025-ZRF6000-A”
13. In the offline window open the incognito file saved earlier which should be saved in the you know what folder, for the online window read from your epic and send the SPC
14. Now lets find your HA and AAA keys for both your profiles so open the sprint and boost notepad files, Sprint’s HA and Boost’s HA and AAA are a 12 digit key, Sprint’s AAA is 32 digit key, if you look in the output data you got you will see 2 sections each with [0-15] lines, your keys are the very last 2 digits of each line. You will see something like this
This is “my” sprint data output
DIAG RX item:
index = 0
mn_ha_shared_secret_length = 0x06
mn_ha_shared_secret[0] = 0x12
mn_ha_shared_secret[1] = 0x34
mn_ha_shared_secret[2] = 0x64
mn_ha_shared_secret[3] = 0x45
mn_ha_shared_secret[4] = 0x45
mn_ha_shared_secret[5] = 0x78
mn_ha_shared_secret[6] = 0x00
mn_ha_shared_secret[7] = 0x00
mn_ha_shared_secret[8] = 0x00
mn_ha_shared_secret[9] = 0x00
mn_ha_shared_secret[10] = 0x00
mn_ha_shared_secret[11] = 0x00
mn_ha_shared_secret[12] = 0x00
mn_ha_shared_secret[13] = 0x00
mn_ha_shared_secret[14] = 0x00
mn_ha_shared_secret[15] = 0x00
mn_aaa_shared_secret_length = 0x10
mn_aaa_shared_secret[0] = 0xE8
mn_aaa_shared_secret[1] = 0x13
mn_aaa_shared_secret[2] = 0xE3
mn_aaa_shared_secret[3] = 0x80
mn_aaa_shared_secret[4] = 0x13
mn_aaa_shared_secret[5] = 0x15
mn_aaa_shared_secret[6] = 0xES
mn_aaa_shared_secret[7] = 0x78
mn_aaa_shared_secret[8] = 0x8D
mn_aaa_shared_secret[9] = 0xD4
mn_aaa_shared_secret[10] = 0x78
mn_aaa_shared_secret[11] = 0x0B
mn_aaa_shared_secret[12] = 0x45
mn_aaa_shared_secret[13] = 0x18
mn_aaa_shared_secret[14] = 0x88
mn_aaa_shared_secret[15] = 0x78
In this case “my” sprint ha key is 123464454578 and “my” aaa is E813E3801315ES788DD4780B45188878
ok now look and find yours, write it down and do the same for boost’s ha and aaa secret keys
15. With both windows open in QPST service programming start matching whats in the “M.IP” tab from the incognito file to the epic’s online one, you need to create a new profile and enable it, this new profile it’s the one that control’s your 1x boost mobile network and your NAI should be something like “[email protected]”, when entering the shared secret keys select “enter Hex value”, enter both the aaa and ha keys in both profiles, for the boost mobile primary address enter 0.0.0.0.
15.666 (thanks to ifuxwituz_)
You may want to try the following settings in the MIP and PPP config, if you are having problems
in M.IP settings for
profile 0 the NAI is MEID(DEC)@hcm.sprint.com
Example: [email protected]
home address: 0.0.0.0
primary ha address: 68.28.15.12
secondary HA address: 68.28.31.12
Profile 1
NAI [email protected]
home adress: 0.0.0.0
primary ha address: 255.255.255.255
secondary ha address: 0.0.0.0
PPP Config
Um settings:
tethered nai: boostmobile.com
user ID: [email protected]
check the 1xEVDO->1x box
AN settings
User ID: [email protected] (this is just an example you replace the 268****** number with your MEID(DEC) number
NOTE: in case you have a good ESN epic and you might want to backup your secret keys…once you change the keys..the default ones are going to be gone for EVER! To do this go back to step 6, the epic only has one profile.
16. in the PPP config tab, you need to also match both Um and AN users IDs. if the incognito files doesn’t have an ID listed, erase it from the epic too! (if you can't erase it, ctrl+d to "null" the box{thanks deekane})
17. When you are done, “write to phone”, epic will reboot and when its back online, your should now see the 3g arrows dancing, your might have to wait 10-15 minutes for it to appear, if it doesn’t go back to step 15 and make sure all info matches again
18. MMS works too!!! If you are in a eclair ROM (2.1) Dial ##3282#, edit and enter your epic’s spc, scroll down and on change the MMSC URL to “mm.myboostmobile.com” .
For Froyo Roms (2.2) check post #54, or open the “voice dialer” app, say “OPEN A P N” (try V, P, N or just A, P , N) and open the “Open APN” menu. Open “Sprint”, scroll down to the “mms proxy”, select it and erase what is there, now press the “menu” soft button in your epic and save. Restart your phone and now you can start sending funny pictures of cats!!!
Video, Pic, and Slideshow MMS works.
19. If you want to check you are connected to a 3g (EvDo) network, Dial *#info*1111# hit phone information then scroll down to see if you're connected to cdma1xrtt or evdo, you should see CDMA -EvDo rev. A in the "network type" (thanks zipxavier)
YOU MUST BE IN A EVDO AREA!!!!!
20. VOICE MAIL NOTIFICATIONS NOW WORKS, CHECK POST #2 for the apk!!! thanks m4f1050!! (do not update the apk or install it from the market)
EXTRA BONUS, TXT and VOICE:
ON the CDMA Tab in service programming, your Directory # should match your phone number..and the IMSI_S is your “MIN” number which boost mobile calls it something else I forgot, in case your text or voice doesn’t work..this is what you need to check first it matches.
Thanks to:
Mobile-files.us, ppcgeeks, xda, sda, mars, the sun, howardforums, special thanks to chimstar from mofi for the help with the MMS problem. This guide was made with the help of a lot people in different threads about different stuff..sorry for not listed everyone
About me:
I’m a “flasher”..but I don’t work for that, I only flash my family and friend’s phones because flashed phones are kinda “buggy” sometimes and any updates and modifications will have an impact on the phone..this is why I don’t flash phones of strangers or charge money....I’m an IT self-employed technician and I do charge money to repair their computers.. I have 1 year experience with flashing phones; my first phone was the HTC Pro 2 to metropcs..and lots of droid 1 to metro..

NV items 65-466 and 1192-1194? what info are you exactly looking for? NAI, ha, aaa keys?
this guide does not use the copy and paste NV items method...
try pulling your ha and aaa keys for both sprint and boostmobile profiles via qxdm, if you can, then thats pretty much the most important info that you need. you will be needing your rant's spc for that
check step 6 and 11 for more info..

Quick! Hurry!!!!

*this is side tracked from what i posted above but, if you are NOT getting 3g evdo speeds make sure your donor is a 3G EVDO enabled phone like the OP stated. I am currently not getting 3G speeds on my phone because i used the Samsung mirro (dont ask why) as a donor and it is not 3G enabled so i will have to go purchase a Boostmobile Incognito now....(BLACKBERRY'S DO NOT WORK AS DONORS [at least from what i know])

NEED HELP!!!
once you break 3g... is there anyway you can get it back... i had flash few months ago... but didnt know if you modify you modem you will break your 3g... if you could help me with this i would really appreciated it

Does anyone know if this can be done on an Epic with a bad ESN? I'm using Midnight rom 2.7 EXT4 on Crickets 60.00 Plan. I am sick of dealing with Crickets ghetto trash reps!
The phone was purchased through craigslist and I've checked with sprint and it is a bad ESN phone. Since the phone will work on sprints network, will that block boost customers from using Bad ESN Sprint phones?
An answer would be great guys.

It doesn't matter what ESN is on your Epic because changing it to the ESN of the Incognito is a required part of the process that comes before this guide (getting the Epic to connect to Boost in the first place).
Can't go into much more detail without getting moderated...

help please 3g

if you break the 3g in your epic..you need to redo the steps to get the right ha and aaa key again in your epic from the incognito.

tip: bad esn phones are usually way cheaper than clean esn ones.

I have the same problem..my wife's epic some days has great speeds but mine, which is right next to it, will have <200kpbs download speeds and VICE VERSA.
THIS DOESN'T NOT SEEM TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE PHONE
seems like sprint\boost is doing some network changes, especially if your area is currently rolling out 4g...
when will be solved?? i dont know
also, not only boost mobile users are having this problems..sprint users too..there is thread about it in the evo forums.

Thanks for your reply @Leviuqse,I guess I just have to wait it,would it make difference if 4g was already deployed yet in my area for speeds,and has anyone successfully found a 4g solution yet for boost Epic or Evo,just googling the topic brings you to alot of forums and ideas but no bypass tho,sorry if I am asking in the wrong area, im just really into my new phone

Flashing your HTC EVO Shift [GUIDE]

Tools Needed:
all can be googled and downloaded
- QPST 2.7 build 359
- QXDM 03.09.19
- CDMA WS 2.7 (ATTACHED)
- HTC Diag Drivers (ATTACHED)
Connect the phone via USB
On the phone dial ##3424# to enter DIAG mode
Install drivers if needed (on some systems it will find all the right drivers BUT the HTC Diag driver. For me I had to manually force it to take the x64 driver in Windows 7. Once you add the driver it functions perfectly.)
Open device manager and look for the device under "Modems" -> HTC USB Modem
Double click on HTC USB modem and go to the "modem" tab and note the COM port.
Open QPST Configuration
Click on "Ports" tab
If the port you wrote down is not here click "Add New Port"
Uncheck "Show Serial and USB/QC Diagnostic ports only" and your port should appear on the list.
Highlight it and click "ok" to add.
Close QPST
**** You have now established a connection with your device ****
Open CDMA WS 2.7
Under COM Settings (AT Mode) select your COM port for your device, leave baud rate at 115200
Click "Connect"
Click "Read" (This is not necessary but I do it to ensure I have a good connection to the device. The "read" output will display the phone information in the fields on the left. If you don’t see this information populate you have not established a connection with the device and need to verify your COM port settings and try again.)
Click the "Security" Tab
Under SPC make sure it is set to "Default (nv_read)" and click "Read"
It will display your SPC in the empty box. WRITE THIS DOWN for later!
Click on "SPC" button and click on "Send"
If you have done everything correctly you will get a popup that says "SPC is correct. Phone Unlocked."
Click "ok"
Close CDMA Workshop
------------------------------------------------------------------​
Open QXDM
Under "Options" on the main menu click "Communications.."
Set "Target Port" to your COM port for your device.
Click "Ok"
Click "View" on the main menu, navigate to New -> Common -> Command Output (this will open a black command prompt window in QXDM.)
in the "Command" text field at the bottom of QXDM type "RequestNVItemRead meid" and press enter.
Your MEID string will be displayed as fallows, copy this to notepad with your ESN.
22:25:40.971 meid = 0x00A10000053179FF
Minimize QXDM, we are done with it for a while.
Preparing your MEID and ESN values and flipping them
In Notepad take your ESN and MEID values and strip them of the 0x00's as follows:
MEID = 0x00A10000053179FF
Change to = A10000053179FF
Now flip the values as shown and add a space between every two values:
MEID Original = A10000053179FF
MEID Flipped = FF 79 31 05 00 00 A1
ESN Original = 81380CRA
ESN Flipped = RA 0C 38 81
Zeroing out your ESN and MEID values in QXDM
At this point if you followed the instruction QXDM should be minimized and still connected to your phone. Your phone should still be SPC unlocked and there should have been NO reboots in the entire process. If you did get a reboot you will need to rescan your memory addresses as they change when the phone is rebooted.
Maximize QXDM
Go to the file menu and select "View -> New -> Common -> Memory Viewer"
Change the drop down box next to "Rows" from 8 to 16
Now carefully copy a MEID or ESN address from your saved notepad file to the "Address" field and press enter. Example: 0x108D8FE0
Find your FLIPPED ESN or MEID address in the string and change ONLY those values to 00 (zero's)
DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING ELSE EVEN IF IT IS CLOSE OR OFF BY EVEN ONE DIGIT!!!! (You may permanently damage your phone!)
Once you change the MEID or ESN to zero click "Write" The values will change from red to blackindicating they have been written.
Do this for all the rest of your MEID and ESN values
(LOCATIONS CAN BE FOUND IN .ZIP ATTACHMENT BELOW)
Verifying you have Zero'd out your MEID and ESN
Bring the Command Output Window back to the front.
In the Command field at the bottom type "RequestNVItemRead meid" it should display:
22:25:40.971 DIAG TX item:
22:25:40.971 meid = 0x0000000000000000
22:25:40.971 DIAG RX item:
22:25:40.971 meid = 0x0000000000000000
If your MEID is zero'd out proceed to step 4.
If your MEID is not zero'd out. Don’t bother proceeding to ESN you MUST zero out your MEID before you can change your ESN.
* If your MEID did not zero out and you used all the address locations you could possibly find by scanning I highly suggest going through the forums and trying all the MEID addresses people have submitted. I will also include a master list of all the ones I can find at the bottom of this post.
In the Command field at the bottom type "RequestNVItemRead esn" it should display:
23:39:40.442 DIAG TX item:
23:39:40.442 esn = 0x00000000
23:39:40.442 DIAG RX item:
23:39:40.442 esn = 0x00000000
Now hold power button on Evo Shift and select Airplane Mode.
Disconnect QXDM by clicking comunications tab then ports. Change the port to DISCONNECTED.
DO NOT CLOSE QXDM!
Go back to QPST Configuration and click on port your phone is on. Then click Disable to disable the port.
Now restart your phone but DO NOT unplug it from usb cable.
When it comes back on dial ##3424#
Verifying your MEID is now Zero'd out after reboot
Go to QPST Configuration and enable the port your phone is on.
Go to QXDM and click comunications tab, then ports.
Change the Disconnected to the port your phone is on.
In the Command field at the bottom type "RequestNVItemRead meid" it should be zero'd out.
In the Command field at the bottom type "RequestNVItemRead esn" it will have reverted to the original ESN.
This is expected!
Now go back into "Memory Viewer" and zero out all the ESN addresses again.
Once you have zero'd out all the ESN addresses verify the ESN is zero'd out by typing
"RequestNVItemRead esn" into the command field with the command prompt brought to the front.
Regardless of if the ESN is completely zero'd out or not proceed to the next step. This is how you uncover the hidden ESN memory entries and any locatons that may have changed from the reboot!
*Do Not disconnect the phone or reboot it!
Try to write your MEID by using the following command "RequestNVItemWrite meid
0x00A100000XXXXXXX" (Replace A100000XXXXXXX with your Boost MEID HEX)
If it succeeds it will show:
00:11:53.415 DIAG TX item:
00:11:53.415 meid = 0x00A100000XXXXXX
00:11:53.415 DIAG RX item:
00:11:53.415 meid = 0x00A100000XXXXXX
Changing your MDN and MSID
Now that your phone has been repaired you need to update your MDN and MSID to reconnect to the network for voice and text messages.
Turn on the Phone
Dial ##[your MSL]# to allow you to enter EPST. Your MSL should not have changed
from the one you noted earlier before the MEID repair but If it did go to the steps above on how to find your MSL with CDMA WS 2.7
Chose "Edit Mode"
Edit your Mobile Directory Number (MDN) and enter the one for your wireless network
Click "Ok"
Edit your MSID and enter the one for your wireless network
Click "Ok"
Press the "Menu" key and select "Commit Modifications" and the phone will reboot.
Once rebooted try to dial out and send yourself a text message!
LET ME KNOW IF THIS WORKED FOR YOU! THANKS!

Thank you for this guide. I was stuck in the ESN & MEID Zeroing out process but after i read your guide my eyes opened!
Thanks.

Just like Djmanjol I was stuck at the same spot but the MEID locations was a godsend.

3g access
Anyone able to get 3g access with this?
I am having trouble with that part...service 67 error.

cant write MEID
is driving me crazy
it reads 000000
but i cant write it
WTF

What does it say when you try to write it?
Also, I am not 100% sure, but i think your phone needs to be unlocked with shiftRR.
More details and I am sure people will be able to help you.

You should be able to find several guides in XDA developers for rooting the EVO Shift. I have an EVO but not a Shift, so links to the guides that I use may not be applicable. Search in here for Root EVO Shift S-off or something similar. If not satisfied, please respond and I will post a link that I used, but it may not be 100% applicable.

[edit] Nevermind. I think I have the answer here.[/edit]

I have been thinking of giving this a shot, but not sure if what I want to do is possible, or legal.
I have an active crappy Samsung Android phone, but want to activate a Shift that Sprint says has a bad ESN. Can I use the good ESN from the Samsung on the Shift and will the phone work like it is supposed to? Or is what I am thinking of trying going to get me in trouble?

Thanks for your response, Zarboz.
I found the archive, EV0 4G QMAT.rar, right?
I also have the radios, but do I use both radios? I suspect I only need the 2.05.00.06.10 radio.
However, after more seaching and reading, I discovered the QMAT script method does not work on EVO 4G hardware 0004. I guess I will be forced to use the long method.

will an HTC 7 Pro work with Page Plus?

I am from the Android world, zero experience with WP7 and I want to buy this exact phone and possibly flash a custom ROM
and the goal is to get this to work on Page Plus (Verizon MVNO) and NOT Sprint
the phone is currently set up for C-Spire - a smaller CDMA carrier in Mississippi (formerly Cellular South)
I have access to CDMA workshop and other CDMA tools, such as qpst
I need Verizon coverage and a REAL keyboard at a cheap price ($55/month) and this looks like it could be the ticket!

I had the same question and found a post from bing searches with someone claiming to have succeeded in activating it on Page Plus. Unfortunately the person never really detailed how he did it.
I'd still like to know how it can be done.

The Arrive can be flashed to P+. I'm using one on it. You'll need the paid CDMAWS, not the hacked version.
Also, before you do this, remember that the 3G will be intermittent. The reason for this is that you cannot upload the authentication file to the phone's file system, so the phone never gets true 3G, it cycles between connecting and 1XRTT. To make this work properly, you'll need to have a ROM loaded that's a direct port from the HTC Trophy, or an Arrive ROM that has the Verizon operator package in it. I've yet to learn how to do this, but as time permits, I'll figure it out. I've got a few requests in to ansar and leadpoizon, two ROM Chefs that are heavily involved in GOLD_C (our phone's) development here.
Here's what I did:
1. Put the phone in Diag Mode, using ##MFG# on the phone dialer and connect to CDMAWS.
2. Obtain your MSL/SPC by using the HTC Method, then write it to 000000.
3. Program the phone using CDMAWS just as you would an android device; put in MIN, MDN and set your data settings to your#@vzw3g.com.
4. Load a modded PRL to put the phone on Verizon's Towers, and lose the roam triangle. (Attached)
5. Call P+ and give them the MEID of the Arrive. They'll tell you to do *22890, but do NOT do it.
6. Once they say it's active, make a test call, and enjoy your Arrive.
The steps above will give you voice calls, SMS, and spotty 3G. MMS will not work, unless you hack the registry of the phone. The phone works great with WiFi, though.
If you're brave, try forcing the phone into 1X by finding a non-EvDo PRL. You'll be showing that you're roaming, but it may yield better data results. If you do set 1X though, be sure to set MIP type (in CDMAWS) to Simple IP.
Post here w/ questions, if you have any...

Verizon S3 / S4 / S5 / Note 2 / Note 3 to Page Plus Flashing with 3G

I want this to be a thread dedicated to help others to flash the mentioned devices to Page Plus / Selectel / Next-G / Service in REAL 3G....
I have been flashing phones for a several years now as a hobby and want to pass on some of my knowledge and advice to others making this transition.
A few things I want to do when time allows as I work a full time job and have a family.. (Not to mention my Flashing Phone Hobby)
1. Keep a list of PRL's that work with Page Plus with no roaming symbol...
2. Maintain a summary of how to get into Diag Mode on all phones and methods to get your SPC/MSL on Sprint Phones......
3. Post useful Apks,, 16 Digit Passwords, and other instructions on flashing the phones.......
4. Maintain a Current List of Page plus Sids for Flashing..........
5. Make this a thread that people can come to and discuss issues etc....
Now I am not good at writing Guides and truthfully at this time have no desire to do so, but I will however try my best to help you along the way when my time is available. So please I ask do not flood my Inbox with request for a guide etc. (Post here so others can contribute and everyone can learn together)
One thing I have learned over the years of flashing devices is its better to think it through and work by trial and error so you can truly learn the skill of performing successful flashes.
(Please everyone keep it civil and make this a community effort to help each and everyone)
Current Status is that I can pull Keys/Passwords on Verizon S3 / S4 / Note 2, Sprint S2 / S3 /S4 / Note 2, US Cellular S2 / S3 / S4 and Note 2 phones, Plus several other Phones and get REAL 3G with no donor on Page Plus / Selectel / Next-G....
(Again let me stress, please do not flood me with request to show you how to do this, as currently I will not post this information, I have my reasons and I hope you can respect that and use this thread for the other benefits you can get from it)
** Note: I did not include Verizon Prepaid or Straight Talk in this due to my beliefs that the cloning of esns/meids to obtain service is not LEGAL **

What is a PRL and what it does:
PRL=(Preferred Roaming List)
The PRL is a list of information that resides in the memory of some kinds of digital phones. It lists the radio frequencies the phone can use in various geographic areas.
The part of the list for each area is ordered by the bands the phone should try to use first. Therefore it's a kind of priority list for which towers the phone should use.
The PRL helps determine which home-network towers to use, and also which towers belonging to other networks to use in roaming situations (areas where the home network
has no coverage.) When roaming, the PRL may instruct the phone to use the network with the best roaming rate for the carrier, rather than the one with the strongest signal at the moment.
Since a PRL tells the phone "where" to search for a signal, as carrier networks change over time, an updated PRL may be required for a phone to "see" all of the coverage that it should,
both with the home network and for roaming.

Open Dialer and dial ##RTN# then enter your MSL/SPC Code (Most likely is 000000 if it has been flashed before
You most likely will need to also put a Sprint PRL on the phone also if you are not using the Sprint Corporate PRL
If so you can use this one and it should work fine:

Android 4.3 Upgrade Methods for Verizon and Sprint Phones
DO NOT DOWNLOAD THESE FILES AND ATTEMPT UNLESS YOU ARE 100% SURE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING
THIS WILL LOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER FOREVER NO GOING BACK TO PREVIOUS VERSIONS EVER
Let me stress that anytime you flash either with ODIN or normal methods you take the chance of BRICKING your device.
SO be sure you know what you are doing as I am not responsible for anything that may go wrong.....
These will wipe your devices and bring the phone back to like is what was brand new, and should not affect your flash, but then again do at your own risk.....
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
ODIN 3.07 Program to use for the Update: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zjw7zhr9br...Odin_v3.07.rar
Flashing Firmware with Odin Instructions:
1. Put your phone into download mode. To do this turn the phone off and then press volume down+home button+power button at the same time. You will then get a warning saying press up to continue and down to cancel, press volume up and you are now in download mode
2. Start Odin
3.At this point please make sure that ONLY TWO OPTIONS TICKED are "Auto Reboot" and "F.Reset Time" (otherwise you could end up with a very expensive paperweight)
4. Select the PDA button in the Odin program: Direst it to the tar file that you are using to upgrade the one you downloaded for your device......
5. Plug your Phone into the computer, wait for the drivers to install and then wait for the ID:COM section to turn blue in ODIN.
7.Press start and the flash will begin, once this has started do not remove the usb cable or turn off your computer or the device (or you will have brick for sure) the phone will reboot once the flash has finished.
8. All Done Enjoy 4.3

Things Not To Do With A Flashed Phone
1. NO OTA Android Updates Period (You will break your flash)
2. No OTA Programming *228, *22890, *22800, *22801 or any other Variants
3. Some Rom's do not play well with Flashed Phones do your research before flashing.
4. Never do a RTN (Return to Network) Reset ##786# on a Flashed Device (Most definitely will break your flash)
5. Some Radios/Modems cause issues if you flash (If the phone is working leave it be)
6. Factory Reset ( I recommend not to do this also, some versions of Android phones it will break things period)
7. PRLS ..... aww my favorite, everyone thinks these are the answer to all their prayers
a. If the phone is working leave it be (my personal stance)
b. Some PRL's are not EVDO or have not been Modded and will break your 3G or throw the Roaming Symbol
c. I have posted many PRL's above that will work with 3G (Latest one I modded is 60007 for all carrier phones)
8. No Phone Number Change (You change your carrier assigned number, you must reflash)

Why Is My 3G Data Slow?
It's a complaint I hear everyday from people using flashed smartphones performed by them or another flashing provider...
Why are my speeds so slow and is it possible to improve the situation?
There are a variety of reasons why 3G data speeds may be less than stellar, and each one requires a different solution.
Before assuming there's a problem, though, make sure you understand the realistic capabilities of your service.
VERIZON/Page Plus/Selectel:
2G 1xRTT: 50-100kbps download and upload with bursts to 144 kbps
3G EVDO Rev-A: (shows up as "3G" on your phone): 600-1400kbps download with bursts to 3Mbps, 200-800kbps upload with bursts to 1.8Mbps
(Don't get to caught up in running speedtest as these can be very confusing and fool you at times into thinking you have a problem when actually
the way they test and the servers they use get congested also)
POTENTIAL PROBLEM #1: Weak signal
If you're too far away from the tower (or if there are a lot of obstructions/interference between you and the tower), your device won't be able
to pick up a strong signal and your performance will suffer.
Solution: Try other locations in your home or area you are in, some areas do not get great signal strength and this could be your issue.
POTENTIAL PROBLEM #2: Tower overcrowding (Network Congestion)
The bandwidth available from a cell tower is shared amongst all the users connecting to the tower. A cell tower can only provide so much bandwidth,
and the more users there are connecting to the tower, the slower everyone's speeds will be.
Is this YOUR problem? If you notice that your speeds tend to follow a pattern most days (for example, nice and fast late at night or early in the day but slower in the evening when everyone is home from work and school) and you've confirmed that the problem isn't signal-related (by testing your speeds at home and then again somewhere closer to the tower), you'll know your tower is simply being used by lots of other subscribers at the same time.
Solution: Unfortunately, there's nothing you can do about this (other than consider switching to a different provider who might have more capacity at their towers or isn't as oversold in your area).
POTENTIAL PROBLEM #3: Incorrectly Performed Flash
It's very common for flashed phones to have been done incorrectly.
Is this YOUR problem? This is very possibly the source of the problem if your flash was done incorrectly or you made changes to your setup recently.
Solution: You'll need to either troubleshoot the phone and or reflash the problem phone.
POTENTIAL PROBLEM #4: Tower issues
Providers periodically do maintenance or upgrade work on cell towers, which can disrupt service; other factors like severe weather occasionally damage cell towers and cause problems.
Is this YOUR problem? If your service suddenly degrades significantly and doesn't improve much during non-peak hours (which it would if the problem was overcrowding), and you've confirmed it's not a problem with your flash, the problem likely lies with the tower. The best way to confirm is to take your device several miles away where you'll be connecting to a different tower and test there — if everything works fine when connected to a different tower, you'll know something is amiss with your home tower.
Solution: Out of your control, bear with it until the provider finishes work and repairs.....
Potential Problem #5: Sprint and USSC Devices
I hate to say it but I have seen some Sprint/USSC phones have this issue, likely due to weaker radios and or hardware implemented in the device.
Is this YOUR problem? This is very possibly the source of the problem if your flash was done correctly and you verify that other devices on the network in the same location as yours get consistently better data speeds.
Solution: Verify flash is correct and that your connected at EVDO in settings and passwords have passed authentication. If so this most likely a Sprint/USSC device issue out of control by the user. Replace device with another Cellphone Carrier brand and most of the time problem will be solved. (I see this allot with some of the Samsung S3 Devices from Sprint/USSC, almost like certain lots had a weak radio for whatever reason)
In the end your speeds can be related to any or all of these issues, and a proper flash is key to performing at optimal speeds.
Sometimes as much as we hate to admit a professional flasher is needed to correct speed issues, you would not believe some of the poor flashes I see when I read preflashed phones everyday that so called profesSB_Driver_1.5.1

Flashing help
I have 2 phones that I need to get flashed over to pageplus. 1 Galaxy S2 sch-R760 and 1 Galaxy S2 sph-D710. I have been reading and trying to find complete tuts or a reasonably priced service to get these flashed over but no one seems to be able to get 3g working. The R760 I had flashed to PP but I only get 1x data speeds. I have not tried to do the D710 yet. My wife and I are already on pageplus with a DroidX and a Droid X2 so I guess during the flashing process you have to get or PP telephone numbers on the phones since you cannot do a normal ESN swap with customer support on flashed phones. Can anyone help?

Ill send you a pm. I would like to get this working for my wife. I love to tinker and have flashed old VZW phones when we first came to PP, but time is limited for me.
Thanks!

I'm trying to pm you, Viper, but for some reason messages aren't going through. Are you around for a flashing?

First thanks forbthe topic and help. I need to know how to un flash my s3 so I can use it on my contract. I traded for this s3 and did not know it was flashed to pageplus. All help is greatly appreciated.
Happy fathers day.
