ok im trying to use cdma but i cant get in diag mode i tried ##diag# and all the other ##diag combinations but cdma can connect to the port it just wont read or cant even send spc
You want ##PROGRAM (##7764726). SPC code is 000000. Make sure phone is in CDMA mode.
thnx for the help but it still wont read it or wont even send spc and yes i used 000000
Is there any kind of diagnostic mode/secret menu that I can access on this phone when in GSM mode? I promise I won't go in and do anything too stupid, I just want to see what I could do if I was smarter.
Camera key + power up then connect the USB to the computer. Go to device manager -> ports and you will see your D2G

Hello All,
Upgrade went perfectly. However I can not activate my phone, sprint wants me to go into programming mode by hitting ##13845# and then hit edit in the phone menu. This option is not available, what do I do to get the phone provisioned. I got into the phone by entering ##788# and it took me to an edit menu. Now it asking me for a passcode? What is it or how do I get it?
Thanks

That passcode is your MSL. Take the battery out of your phone and then write down the HEX ESN.
Install GetSPC(attached below) and then input your HEX ESN with Caps lock on.
And then with the push of a button you will have your MSL. Make sure you write it down so you don't lose it.

how to activate verizon?
Cannot access edit menu
I cannot even get to the edit menu. I am not sure I understand how to get there. When on the phone keypad your entering in ##788# and pressing 'send'? This then brings up a menu for you?
If this these are not the steps, please explain what I should be doing/looking for?
Thanks
i cannot access anything. if i put either of those combinations of numbers in it just tries to dial those numbers when i hit send. i upgraded my phone to wm 6.1 n i cannot get it activated plz help thanks!
##778# then send, is the correct number for verizon. Some phones you must leave off the last # for it to go to the edit screen

I would like to know that too
If you really want it on verizon you could ask an authorized verizon retailer to basically do this same thing for you. they love signing people up this way as they get to pocket the normal phone subsidy ($250 on the evo).
does 3g work?

Well you can pretty much get Verizon coverage from that other thread using Altell's towers. Too bad ping gets raised, but hell... way better signal and speedtests

Congratulations buddy!
Thanks a hell of a lot for giving us this how to guide. I really appreciate it
Just had 3 questions:
1) Are you getting 3g data in Atlanta or is it just Edge?
2) What plan did you sign up for at MetroPCS?
3) If you decide you don't like MetroPCS, how do you reverse this process back to Sprint service?
Thanks again for figuring this out

that probably depends on the tower coverage for the specific geographical location ...
i see the directions mention HTC Hero a few times. has anybody confirmed this works on the EVO?
Lol, I just spent all night trying to figure this out and you have made it very easy. Thanks. The Diag Drivers link doesn't work but I am sure we could find it somewhere else.
I do have one question. Do you still need to have a Metro PCS dealer add the ESN to their network?

Yes the ESN needs to be added to Metro's inventory. I had them add it and wallaahhh!
What works and what doesn't?
Can you list what works and what does not? I'm particularly curious about a stable 3G.

Right now talk, text and web are working. Still working on MMS. However I had great 3G reception here in Hotlanta.

I see... so for $50/mo (contract free) I can get the the same things that Sprint is offering me for $80/mo. When you minus the extra cost to buy the phone full retail $449 vs $199 on contract you actually saving about $570 over a two year period...
Hard choice
3G unstable
I have tried many configurations and no matter what I do, it seems that the "mobile network" connection is not stable. It will go out periodically and say "connection failed" or "turning on". Can you verify that you are not having this issue?
Also, this obviously does not bypass the WAP proxy which is used by Cricket. This means that other protocols, such as those used in navigation software and YouTube, are going to be blocked by the proxy server. Does anyone know a way around this?

google around for the droid eris cricket tutorial. that has the proper method to set it up, and it works on all other cdma htc android phones.
i believe it is posted on howardfourms under the cricket section.
I myself was wondering if it was the same because I flashed my evo to cricket the same way just off of flashing know how....going to try and see if the Eris method matches what needs to be done to the evo and will report back
Please, tell me the basics, I am a newb.. IF I wanted to "flash" my Sprint phone which says (by Sprint) is "active on an account" and "not clean to activate," and make it another Sprint-based carrier like Boost Mobile, WHAT WOULD I DO???
What programs?
Do I need another phone? .........
Where do I do what?
I know you can plug your phone into your computer via USB but *then what!*
Thanks!
bump
Can anyone give me a general run-down of how this goes please? I honestly don't know what to do!
Bumping for those with the know-how. Is there a guide somewhere?

I tried to dial the *#197328640# but all I have accessible on it is the Emergency Dialer and ANYTHING I put on it says "Is not an emergency number."
My phone boots to an OS, has Emergency Dialer only, then accepts no input.
Best way to flash it? As I assume that is what I may have to do? (It is a Sprint phone, am trying to get it off of Sprint and onto Boost or some other such network, as I bought it used and Sprint says it is active on an account)

you should be able to use odin to flash it, but it doesn't remove the simlock, and the number you have to dial should automatically activate when you put in the last #, you don't need to press call. if it doesn't do anything without pressing call, it could be possible it doesn't recognize the code
Now that there's an app that reads your mslcode enabling you to enable diag mode : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.unlockgods.kyc&hl=en
Is there a way to get cdma workshop to read the phone's network information? Or DFS to read the phone network information? My computer is detecting the com port but isnt red the phone information.
Thanks.
Picked up a Verizon HTC One M8, tried to use x3jailbreak's Sprint HTC One M8 guide but had no luck getting it to work since the Verizon phone doesn't seem to expose ##DATA# and some other things needed. Reaching out to see if anyone has a guide on how to do it, happy to offer a $50 bounty myself for a guide with fully working 3G and MMS, etc..
It can be easily flashed to any carrier.. All you need is DFS and change from only ruim to NV only option and flash the desired prl and then use *228 to program it over the air.
You don't need to access ##data# just use ##3424# to get the phone into diag mode.
I have successfully flashed a phone but having problems with 3g.. The 3g icon appears but won't connect to the net
