[Q] CDMA Workshop or the like to make alterations for Nexus S 4G?

Does cdma workshop work with the nexus s? nexus s 4g? looking to get in there and alter what I can...hopefully the eri banner. thank you!!
edit: any other way to get in there would be good too. looking to change the sci, accolc, eri, etc, etc. thanks!

I am looking for the same thing.
If I can get the phone into diag mode, I should be able to get it working.
I am having trouble figuring out how to enter the diag mode.
The normal methods (##Code) doesn't work.

I played with CDMA Workshop earlier after installing EPST and have it not working. It looks like it would need a modified dongle to get the Nexus to enter DL or modem mode as the ## codes don't work. Using all other modes I can't seem to get the program to recognize I have the phone plugged in. I could be missing something but have yet to find anything relevant as a CDMA Nexus is the new crittter on the block.

Update on my previous post, to get the NS4G into D/L mode you hold both volume keys down while pressing the power on button for just a second. Now I just need to find the drivers for this mode.

Got it working!
Here are the steps. I am using Windows 7, I have the Android SDK installed, and Windows update gave me the drivers I need.
1. Make sure USB debugging is off.
2. Dial *#*#8778#*#*
3. Change both settings to Modem.
4. Windows 7 will install your drivers.
5. Add the correct com port, in QPST Config.
6. Open QPST Service Programming, and your all set.

i can view everything in cdma workshop. but when i click 'write', it tells me phone is asking for spc(6 digits). i assume this is my msl which i havent gotten yet for this device...
where do i enter the spc so that i can write changes? thank you!!!
edit: got my msl but i dont think its helping here...my main goal is to alter the sci, which i cant do without cdma workshop, yet. id also like to change the banner but nothing seems to be sticking. thanks for the help!

gotta change the banner, sci...
Last day of classes seems like a good time to tackle this issue.
Gonna continue tinkering around...hopefully we can change the SCI and eri banner(want mine to read 'Google' or 'Nexus S 4G').
Any help would be much appreciated and yield you a wookie life debt. Thank you!!!

Still messing around and I cant seem to find a way to make these alterations. Anyone else have any better luck? Skills?
Thanks!!!

Thanks for the dialer code .. much quicker than decompiling the apk.
I saw references to MSL in this thread and google brought it up as the first result for the ns4g, but no mention of how to obtain it.
For those wondering, getprop | grep MSL will show the MSL. If you don't have busybox installed (for grep), just type getprop after you after root in adb shell or terminal emulator/connectbot and scroll through the list of output, MLS will be in there.
Hope this helps save some time for people! Thanks Samsung and Google for keeping it simple! Thanks for this helpful thread!

when i change them both to modem nothing happens, what do di do when i change them.

with my unrooted s4g, i can access the info in cdma tools. i can connect, read the settings...when i attempt to write changes, sometimes it tells me the phone is requesting the spc. other times it will write certain things and fail writing others..regardless, nothing sticks. frustrating...hopefully i can hold off on rooting again until the 3d comes out...gotta be a way to make it happen without rooting(wishful) or editing eri.xml but if this the only way to make changes to sci, banner, etc; im gonna have to wait until i play with the evo3d...really dont wanna wipe data again

WITH BOTH QPST AND CDMA WORKSHOP, I AM ABLE TO READ THE PHONES SETTINGS BUT I CANT WRITE TO IT. woops, sorry bout the caps.
anyway, when i click write, some things write and others dont. then when i click read, the banner is recognized as google even though it reads sprint on my phone still. often time when i click write in cdma workshop, it tells me phone is requesting spc, spc is required.
update: it seems that the sci and access overload class have stuck to the values that i chose. however, the main goal for me is to alter the banner to read 'Google'.
any input is much appreciated. thank you!

By any chance, are there any tutorials or has anybody successful flashed a Hybrid PRL USING cdma workshop??

Samsung phones such as the Moment and Epic 4g need 'default password' sent to unlock the nvitems to be writeable. Has anyone thought of this or tried this? Maybe the Epic 4g password works?

USB Device Not recognized
Guys i need help i tried everything already!!! My nexus s when i connect the phone to the computer does recognized everything except when i tried to go on modem mode. Do u guys have any clue how to fix this?????

[Q] Why can I no longer mount usb

I have erased the contents of the phones internal USB storage. Now I notice that I cant mount to my PC.
Anybody know what happening or had same problem

Have you already tried formatting with CWM?
Perhaps this thread contains some useful information for you.

Typed it in and got nothing. Using the android dialler when I pressed the last * the dialer cleared and did nothing.
Just installed the SDK so I could use (hopefully) ADB. When trying to install the Google driver rev4 windows says that rev 4 is no better than the one currently installed.
Also when I connect to the PC it says that the USB device is not recognised either.
I reckon my next thing to try flashing a new Rom via ROM manager.

well that didnt work in fact it has got considerably worse. I used ROM manager to download and install a new rom but didnt install the Gapps how daft do I feel now cos all I got is version of Blandroid running with no Android Market access to download ROM Manager.
I can access my WiFi network so I thought I would simply visit XDA via the mobile browser and download a fresh version of CM7 and then re-flash via ClockworkMod . However all I get is download fail error. I guess it doesn't know where to save the file.
So to recapp I have the following
a Nexus S (running Blandroid ROM)
a Win XP laptop that does not recognise my Nexus S (therefore cant install the Google driver to use ADB)
The Nexus S recovery is ClockworkMod and accessible.
I cannot accept that it is bricked (not just yet anyway)
I have another Laptop with Ubuntu installed. Will this help me in anyway to find a fix. I am not that experienced in Linux unfortunately.

1
i have the same problem. only thing you can try is.
pull out battery. let something metal touch the usb conecter .conecting the metal to a unload source(for static electricity.)
wait couple of hours,and try again.
if that didnt work.
2
open your nexus.
unplug all cables and screws from the main board.
again touch the usb conecter with something metal that has a ground source.
and try again.
the last step worked for me the 1st time pluging it in after i did that.
after that. usb didnt work again.
it probably has to do something with the usb phone charger and static electricity.
but i havent tested it.

will give that a try when I have a bit more time.
In the meantime I have been setting up ADB on my other laptop running Ubuntu 11.04. But unfortunately the Nexus S didnt register on the OS either. I thought you didnt need additional drivers for Linux only windows! I am really puzzled now as I thought the Linux option would have allowed me to flash a different ROM other than Blandroid (which isnt bad its just I dont have the Gapps installed)

you still have wifi/3G and CWM or bloothoot?
download the Gapps zip. put it on dropbox or any hosting site.download it trough your mobile browser and flash it trug CWM.
or use blutethoot to download it.
might be a short fix.until you get USB to work.
(this is how i do it cuz my usb doesnt work.)

I did try that but for some reason after stating that the download had started - Download Unsuccessful was displayed in the notification area. As useual I open a door only to find a brick wall on the other side.
In the meantime I am back with my HTC Hero.
Thanks for helping anyway!

seeing you have HTC here.why not tranver your zip trug your hero to your Ns?(with bluethoot)

boy, i hope you haven't started tearing your phone apart yet...
since you still have access to cwm: try to format your sdcard with it. looks like you haven't done that yet.

I would try to uninstall all drivers and associated programs on your PC. Then reinstall the drivers. Windows can be very finicky as you know. Also try PDANET drivers.

Same PC with dual boot? Yeah, try another cord and a another PC. The fact that you plugged it in and it's recognized in some way in the tray says something is fubar. I just don't know if it is the phone though. Best of luck.

Nah, different laptop and different cable. Hope that it charges OK. Gonna have to get a WiFi file transfer app working to move files to and from.

glad to help out :3
there are allot of people that have this USB isue and its HW NS related. nothing we actually can do about it.plus it also happens after changing kernels and roms(i supose) overclocking might be 1 of the reasons thus the voltages not being original.
btw,sorry for my half assed english x3

Double check the modem/pda settings mentioned in post #3. Should be set to pda to see the files on the SD.

Having the same issue. I tried that, no such luck.
My computer *did* connect at one point though... couldn't mount USB storage (wasn't prompted) but it did ask for a driver, and currently has a Samsug USB one installed. It won't accept the SDK driver (not 64-bit capable? Or NS4G? Idk...)

INTF2 Driver INSTALL---ETS---VPST | For You Unlockers

INTF2 Driver / ETS / VPST
Here is missing INTF2 Driver / the hard to find programming tools all in one spot!
I have experimented for a while and found this driver. I remote flash alot of devices but even though I now obtained this missing driver, it is still not reading in full DIAG MODE no matter what I choose after ENABLING the HIDDEN MENU *#22745927 - and DIAG MODE OPTIONS **87284.
Samsung has made this missing driver a complete hidden secret right in the default driver package!
Hoping others that are trying to flash this device to other CDMA Carriers can help finish this project as there are no resources available yet.
Here is the steps to get that driver installed properly:
1) Leaving your device UNPLUGGED, Install the SAMSUNG USB DRIVER FOR MOBILE PHONES here: SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_15160.exe - 14.07 MB
2) Plug your phone into your PC
3) Dial *#22745927 to enable the hidden menu, then tap OK. (If ever asks for a code, it is 000000)
4) Dial **87284 And under UART select PDA / Under USB Select CDMA MODEM
5) Open your Device Manager on your PC and verify you are still missing the INTF2 Driver
6) Right Click that missing driver notification and select UPDATE DRIVER
7) Choose BROWSE MY COMPUTER FOR DRIVER SOFTWARE option (NOT THE AUTO OPTION! windows won't find it)
8) Select LET ME PICK A LIST OF DEVICE DRIVERS ON MY COMPUTER
9) wait for the driver MANUFACTURER list to show up results and select SAMSUNG
10) Under MODELS select SAMSUNG HSP PLUS MODEM DRIVER
11) Hit NEXT and OK to install
12) Verify Driver successfully installed. You will see it is Under MODEMS in your Device Manager with its own assigned PORT.
****NOW THAT I HELPED YOU PLEASE REPLY HOW TO GET OUR CDMA WORKSHOP / ETS / VPST / ETC TO READ THIS DEVICE IN DIAG MODE SO WE CAN ALL FLASH IT TO OTHER CARRIERS! I AM SHARING LINKS TO THOSE DIFFICULT TO FIND APPS BELOW *****
NOTE: Page Plus Cellular has an OPEN HANDSET POLICY in which means they allow any device that can be possible flashed into their network. Making all this perfectly legal
"All we need is the very final step to get this thing to read on any of those flashing software listed above...."
Yes we now own this device, the Evo 3D, and the Evo 4G We will be developing Roms for this device soon!
To Bypass the Activation Screen:
1) Press the emergency call button.
2) Then dial *#83786633
"Soft Keys Now Enabled"
3) Press the home key.​
Other steps Attempted for PC Diag Mode:
1) Remove SIM Card, turn on the phone.
2) Connect the phone to PC, Install VIA Telecom USB Driver.
3) Dial **87284, choose USB > CDMA Modem
4) While the phone still connected to PC, Dial **33284 and then
go to ETS Channel. If it's already on USB, change it to DPRAM
and then back to USB.
5) Dial **583, choose Enable CDMA Mode.​
Flash / Unlock Programming Tools:
VPST: VPST_4.4.16_1_.msi - 25.77 MB
ETS: ETS(8.5.17.0)_1_.exe - 20.26 MB

I have worked hard trying to flash this device to other carriers. If you are not looking to get out of Verizon than this does nothing for you. No one is sharing at all how to flash this phone to Page Plus / Cricket Wireless/ etc meaning lack of open source unlock support on this device compared to the Galaxy S3 / Note 2/ etc. This Post shows 1 step closer to flashing this device to another carrier (All drivers should be obtainable). If someone knows how to flash to Other Carriers using this driver, please reply and help others. I can do many device except this one. If you Google this, you will find no answers to even obtaining this driver as I have looked myself (People saying not possible cause it is a Via Chipset and all). I may be in the wrong section and possible need to be in the Q&A. Not sure... If I need to move this Post, please let me know. Thanks!

This is pretty sweet. I'm sure there are at least a few folks out there who would find this helpful.

There's some sort of thread on here by the name of something like "QPST instructions?" but my search returns nothing.

Yep. Unfortunately QPST won't work on this device. We use it on all other devices but this one has a Via Chipset. QPST only works on QUALCOMM chips like Galaxy S3, Note2, Evo, etc... I really appreciate you inputs! This post is to hopefully help all in this work-in progress.

I've succesfully flashed a Droid Charge to my local carrier, but no Data yet.. Voice only. All you have to do is flash Sprint Galaxy Nexus CDMA Radio via odin, reprogram the phone using ETS, and you have to call *583 on every reboot and then choose CDMA Mode ( ..or CDMA Only, I forgot )
This is the radio :
Sprint Galaxy Nexus FC12 Radio

Would this work in Samsung Galaxy S Aviator R930 (it's the same phone, this is US Cellular Droid Charge Version) ???
I was able to get to the ETS Channel set up, and changed it to USB, DPRAM.
I also did the the UART and USB changed to PDA and MODEL, respectively.
Tried both in MODEM too.
But neither option allowed me to read the phone on ETS or VPST.
CWS/QPST doesnt work either.
I am able to change the MIN, SID, etc. due to a service menu ##8778#, but havent been abe to flash the PRL.
Regards,
JB

Here is the intf2 at diagnostic port driver
This is a better matched driver for those of you who need it. also attached sprint ga02 cdma radio that i edited in hex editor. you will now see I515fk02 in bootloader,about phone and in ets.

I think your PC is trying to install these drivers because you have 'Fast Charge' enabled.

...interesting thread...
I don't want to be "that guy" but...
I sorta doubt that a custom kernel with fast charge support
...or the script to enable it below...
has much to do with the USB drivers as detailed by the OP.
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
#Script to activate force_fast_charge on boot via init.d
echo "1" > /sys/kernel/fast_charge/force_fast_charge
...correct me if I have misspoken...

I'm sure that's the reason..

Flashing Nexus 5 (D820) into your own CDMA carrier

This is just a small guide on how to flash Nexus 5 D820 (US version) from Sprint to other CDMA carriers. Please mind that this is a trial and error guide which I tried many times before I succeeded flashing my Nexus 5. So if there are some mistakes that needed to be corrected , please tell me and I won't mind .
So let's begin: First, you need to root your Nexus 5. I will not provide on how to root it since there are lots of guides out there if you google it. Ok, after that you need to install the Nexus 5 Windows driver which you can download it from here: http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/MOBILES/LG/LG-United-Mobile-Driver-381.shtml
Since LG Nexus 5 doesn't have dial code for diag mode we have to flash diag mode boot img file which you can download from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2421929&d=1385715923
You can use Flashify which can be downloaded from Google Play Store to flash the img file. The phone will reboot after you flash it.
Ok, after all that you can connect the Nexus 5 to the pc/notebook using the usb data cable. Usually Windows will automatically install all the drivers for the Nexus 5 once you connect it. Oh, don't forget to enable the USB debugging mode from the developer options menu.
After all the needed drivers have been installed, we will enter the rather complicated on how to use adb shell command. You all can read the guides here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2514396
There will be SDK Tools which you have to download for Windows. The guide will tell you all on how to install it.
For the flashing tools, we need:
1) CDMA Workshop 3.9
2) DFS tools
3) QPST
All these tools you have to find/buy them by your own since I can't provide them. Sorry.
Ok let's enter into diag mode. Go into command prompt window and type:
adb shell
then type:
su
(here the $ sign will change into #)
and then type:
setprop sys.usb.config diag,adb
Ok we should be in diag mode now. We will use CDMA workshop first. Set the port. and then click connect. We will find the SPC code and change it. Go into the security tab. In SPC/user lock , let's change the Default (NV_read) into LG method. and click read. We will see some numbers in the box. We will click the SPC button now, there will be a writing like this: Write "000000". Choose that. And SPC code has been changed from those confusing numbers into simple numbers 000000. We succeeded unlocking the SPC. Click reset on the right top corner (it looks like reload button). After that reboot your Nexus 5.
Get into diag mode again. Open your CDMA Workshop again. Connect. Get into memory tab. Go into NV-items. Write nv-item which you can download from: http://www.cricketusers.com/sprint-lg-optimus-s/16145-optimus-s-cdma-ws-3-x-nv-items.html
Ok choose reset and then reboot your phone again.
Get into diag mode again as usual. We will use DFS software now. Choose port. Connect. And click SPC which usually written down 000000. It will unlock the phone so we can write down settings into it. All right in here go to Programming tab where you need to enter all your MDN, MIN, Akey, PRL, etc informations which you can get from your own carriers/operators. If using DFS is confusing, please read the guide first. I am sure you can find some in google .
Ok if everything is written and you press reset on DFS. Reboot your phone. Usually after this you can use your phone for calling and sending SMS text. Oh, don't forget to insert a simcard in your phone. Usually just put a GSM card. This phone can be used for either CDMA or GSM. There will be a new menu in mobile network. LTE-3G-1x-Global(GSM).
But the 3G EVDO for data connection will not work at this stage. So we will use QPST software. Use the latest QPST software 2.7 built. Connect and as usual you have to enter SPC code. Go into PPP config tab. There you will go into Um tab. Check if our user id is the same as the user id as given by your own carrier or is it still filled by Sprint's user id? If the Sprint's id is still written there, go into the user id box and press ctrl-d from your keyboard to wipe the Sprint's ID. And then do the same thing in AN tab. After all that, press write to phone. Reboot your Nexus 5.
Get into the diag mode again...hope you guys don't get tired of it though :laugh: Open QPST, read from your phone, get into PPP config. Go into Um tab and the user id box should be empty now. Fill it with your user id and password too. And do the same thing in AN tab. Go into M.IP tab and check if profile 1 (ignore profile 0) is enable. get into it and check if both NAI and Tethered NAI are written with our own user id. Write to phone and reboot your phone.
We will wait for a few minutes......and usually 3G EVDO sign will come up. Go into About Phone, take a look in Status is it written: CDMA-Evdo rev. A....if it is congrats, you have successfully flash your phone with your own carrier. :laugh:
Hopefully this guide will help you guys. I know it's a bit confusing. Hey it's my first time writing a guide....If there's any mistake that I made, please don't hesitate to tell me. Thanks guys.

After all the needed drivers have been installed, we will enter the rather complicated on how to use adb shell command. You all can read the guides here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2514396
There will be SDK Tools which you have to download for Windows. The guide will tell you all on how to install it.
For the flashing tools, we need:
1) CDMA Workshop 3.9
2) DFS tools
3) QPST
All these tools you have to find/buy them by your own since I can't provide them. Sorry.
Ok let's enter into diag mode. Go into command prompt window and type:
adb shell
then type:
su
(here the $ sign will change into #)
and then type:
setprop sys.usb.config diag,adb
Ok we should be in diag mode now. We will use CDMA workshop first. Set the port. and then click connect. We will find the SPC code and change it. Go into the security tab. In SPC/user lock , let's change the Default (NV_read) into LG method. and click read. We will see some numbers in the box. We will click the SPC button now, there will be a writing like this: Write "000000". Choose that. And SPC code has been changed from those confusing numbers into simple numbers 000000. We succeeded unlocking the SPC. Click reset on the right top corner (it looks like reload button). After that reboot your Nexus 5.
Get into diag mode again. Open your CDMA Workshop again. Connect. Get into memory tab. Go into NV-items. Write nv-item which you can download from: http://www.cricketusers.com/sprint-lg-optimus-s/16145-optimus-s-cdma-ws-3-x-nv-items.html
Ok choose reset and then reboot your phone again.
Get into diag mode again as usual. We will use DFS software now. Choose port. Connect. And click SPC which usually written down 000000. It will unlock the phone so we can write down settings into it. All right in here you need to enter all your MDN, MIN, Akey, PRL, etc informations which you can get from your own carriers/operators. If using DFS is confusing, please read the guide first. I am sure you can find some in google .
Ok if everything is written and you press reset on DFS. Reboot your phone. Usually after this you can use your phone for calling and sending SMS text. Oh, don't forget to insert a simcard in your phone. Usually just put a GSM card. This phone can be used for either CDMA or GSM. There will be a new menu in mobile network. LTE-3G-1x-Global(GSM).
But the 3G EVDO for data connection will not work at this stage. So we will use QPST software. Use the latest QPST software 2.7 build 422. Connect and as usual you have to enter SPC code. Go into PPP config tab. There you will go into Um tab. Check if our user id is the same as the user id as given by your own carrier or is it still filled by Sprint's user id? If the Sprint's id is still written there, go into the user id box and press ctrl-d from your keyboard to wipe the Sprint's ID. And then do the same thing in AN tab. After all that, press write to phone. Reboot your Nexus 5.
Get into the diag mode again...hope you guys don't get tired of it though :laugh: Open QPST, read from your phone, get into PPP config. Go into Um tab and the user id box should be empty now. Fill it with your user id and password too. And do the same thing in AN tab. Go into M.IP tab and check if profile 1 (ignore profile 0) is enable. get into it and check if both NAI and Tethered NAI are written with our own user id. Write to phone and reboot your phone.
We will wait for a few minutes......and usually 3G EVDO sign will come up. Go into About Phone, take a look in Status is it written: CDMA-Evdo rev. A....if it is congrats, you have successfully flash your phone with your own carrier. :laugh:
Hopefully this guide will help you guys. I know it's a bit confusing. Hey it's my first time writing a guide....If there's any mistake that I made, please don't hesitate to tell me. Thanks guys.

Hi could you please clarify me what do you get when doing this operation? I was looking into a way to use 4g in Europe from the nexus 5 d820 version, since here the channels used are not supported by this version. I suppose this tutorial doesn't have anything to do with the lte channels é hehe.

Ok for the SPC try this app which u can download from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2394499
I haven't tried it yet, but I hope it will work for you. Read the SPC first and then write 000000. Hope it helps. As for the PRL, you have to have it or else it will not work. Ask your carrier/operator or search it in Google.
And for the adb shell....what happen when u type su? does the $ sign change into # sign?

Hello, fellow QPST users.
QPST 2.7 Build 4.2.2 is a fake version with keylogger.
Some a$$hole downloaded latest public QPST build (4.0.2) and decompiled MSI installer package, then edited all "4.0.2" to "4.2.2", added "fake changelog", added keylogger (qualcomm.exe), then repackaged and spread around web!
Everyone who downloaded QPST build "4.2.2" should change all his passwords.
More info about malware from fake 4.2.2 build (QPST.2.7.422.msi)
MSI package (QPST.2.7.422.msi) was embedded/tampered with qualcomm.exe which is a .NET based malware that logs your keystrokes and sends it to attacker's server.
How to delete the actual malware from your system?
Look at the startup from msconfig or CCleaner, there should be a file called qualcomm.exe thats set to start everytime system starts. Delete both registry and file.
If you wanted to see what data thief was stolen from you. Just open the .dc file (in "dclogs" folder) with Notepad and see for yourself.
In XP, dc file is located here!
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\dclogs
there should be a file called "201X-XX-XX-X.dc
if you open that DC files with Notepad, you'll see all your keystrokes.

Keylogger sends the logs from keylogger to "qpst.hopto.me"
So please report about this incident where and when you encounter QPST 4.2.2 somewhere (forums, posts, sharing-sites, etc)
Copy my whole post and paste it where you see 4.2.2 mentioned.
Bonus: Fake Changelog
If you've installed this 422 build, then open the Readme.txt in C:\Program Files\Qualcomm\QPST\Documents
Scroll down and see the "6/12/13 QPST 2.7.422 changelog"
6/12/13 QPST 2.7.422
1) EFS Hello commands will not be sent unless the device is in a compatible mode. Sending this command when the
device is in download mode can cause a "server busy" message for a few seconds because of command retries.
2) Support for the Sahara device protocol (see 80-N1008-1 or equivalent) is now built in to the QPST server process.
This protocol is only supported by USB Serial ports, not TCP/IP connections. In QPST Configuration a device in
this mode will display as "Q/QCP-XXX (Sahara Download)". This mode can only be detected (1) when the QPST server
process starts or a COM port in this mode added to QPST, or (2) when a device enters Sahara mode on a port assigned
to QPST. This is because the device only sends its Hello message once, as soon as the COM port is opened.

Changelog above is actually cloned from QPST 2.7.394 Just scroll down and see Build 2.7.394 changelog. Its same!
So forget about Build 422. It doesn't exist.
Use QPST 2.7 Build 402. It's the latest public build
Sorry about my english

Ok. Thanks for giving this info about the QPST 4.2.2. I didn't know it was a fake one. Luckily i checked mine didn't have the virus. I guess someone cleaned up the version that i downloaded somehow.

Uh, no! You've just been told it's a fake. Get the official one until told otherwise would be my recommendation

Yup i guess so. I will download the latest official release then. I will edit my post so no one will download the fake one.

Flashing My N5 To Boost (maybe...lol)
I really want to flash mine to Boost but I since I only want to do one phone I don't want to purchase CDMA workshop to do it and the free edition (2.7) lets you get the SPC but won't let me write the NV items. Is there another program that will let me write the NV items, one that doesn't cost $100
Also, I want to flash mine to Boost Mobile and wondered if anyone out there has done it and succeeded. I sent mine to a phone flasher and at first he said he could do it then sent it back telling me he couldn't. So I paid $360 for a phone thats just sitting there...LOL

s me too waiting for a s/w free to use to write NV & misc

Did u guys try this one yet? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2394499

no new port or lg.... shows in com/port in device manager
wat is the reason ?
device is otherwise fine with response to commands...
using windows 8. pl help

i even tried in win 7. after type setprop ... no change...no new port opens...
tried for so many time...some one help to identify issue

This is AWESOME news!!! Now I do have one question... If we were to flash the N5 to our carrier (nTelos in this case) and I put in my LTE sim card, will it activate on LTE, or will it only work with the 3G CDMA portion? - I know that with the nTelos iPhones, they can be activated on standard CDMA and work on 3G, then when you insert a sim card, it updates the carrier settings automatically, and it starts working on LTE. Is that the same case here?

where?
Whe last I looked all I found was on forums like XDA.?
BTW there's a post somewhere (can;t remeber exactly, it's either Nexu 5 or 4 or some other LG phones forum ) that shows you how to get the SPC,
resign all the APK that come with the blobs
OmaDmclient.apk,SprintHiddenMenu.apk,Term.apk,TimeService.apk,UpdateSetting.apk,qcrilmsgtunnel.apk,shutdownlistener.apk
with the platform key (if on stock rom no need anything else AOSP based you have to resign then with the platform key which is the testkey -the one everyone uses to signe zips)
and Nexus 5 test field from the play store
and o/c ADB
EDIT: to get SPC
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2515798
*#*#3282#*#* doesn't work
so you'll need http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2524744
or simply in adb type "am start -n com.lge.SprintHiddenMenu/.sprintspec.Debug"
to arrive to the "6. Select "LTE/Edit" again."
you need stock rom for that unless you resign the apk I mentionned above.

[Q] USB not detected

My phone is still a stock phone, all I have used was only official OTA updates in the past 2 years. All I wanted to do are just flash recovery and try some 3rd party ROMs on this phone. To get everything started I have to unlock bootloader via HTCdev, or maybe do some backup using Helium. Either way I will have to connect my phone to my pc via USB cable. But the USB just not detected. I think there's a problem caused by the 4.2.2 update? Before that everything was fine. See what I've tried already below.
Model of my phone
>One XL Asia (international?)
Bootloader details
>In the attachments
Current ROM/kernel
>Stock
Current recovery
>Not flashed yet
All events that lead to your current situation
>I haven't done anything to it
What you've tried already
✓unplug and replug (over 9000 times)
✓uncheck and check USB debug (over 9000 times)
✓reboot my phone and try again (a few times)
✓uninstall USB driver on my PC, then reboot PC, re-install (a few times)
✓switch cable
✓switch PC
✓switch USB port
✓switch phone:
magically, when I switch phone, which is a HTC desire, everything works fine, USB detected, adb works well, fastboot command works well
under same condition, everything works fine on the desire, but only when I plug my One XL in, everything don't work, so I bet the problem is on the phone?
Anything else that's relevant
>Phone running Android 4.2.2
>My PC runs 64-bit Win 7
>Maybe what I included in attachment will be useful?
I have the basic knowledge on flashing ROMs and stuffs, but I'm a noob in front of all you gods, please help.

"One XL" not found in device manager, it shows "unknown device" removing that does nothing

Can you get Harware ID for that Unknown device from Device manager??
If you can add that Hardware Id to your Drivers .ini file and update the driver manually pointing to that driver folder.
Edit: I tried the drivers from this post and they worked for me

In the link I posted you will find a link to download the Win 7 64 bit drivers for HTC.
http://d-h.st/OYI
Unzip the archive downloaded from the link. In the extracted folder you will find a file named "androidusb.ini" open it with Notepad and Add your device hardware id found from the device manager to the file like below and save it.
%MyHTC%=HTCAND64.Dev, USB\XXHARDWARE_IDXXXXX
Follow the steps from this link to update your drivers once above modification is done.

sorry i have been busy round these days, no time to deal with my phone

then when i came to the 10th step of this page: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/ht/update-drivers-windows-7.htm

it's roughly says there is not usable driver for win 7 64 bit in that path file i selected, then it did nothing i have to close it
and i just found out, when my phone is in fastboot and USB connected, ADB command works fine, if you know what i mean
that means, i can unlock the bootloader, but still, i need to backup my apps and data, is there an alt solution for me to do backup rather than fixing the driver and use Helium?

I think it is recognising your phone as USB device.
