Sprint Touch Pro2 on PagePlus?

Can you activate a Sprint Touch Pro2 on PagePlus?
Mine is Security & SIM unlocked, currently using an AT&T SIM card. Wonder about combining it with PagePlus on the CDMA network. That doesn't use a SIM card does it? I switched my network setting to CDMA only, and activated my phone on PagePlus and was told to dial *22890 or *228, but it didn't do anything.

pageplus
Anyone know exactly what you have to do to get a Sprint Touch Pro2 phone to work on PagePlus?

they would have to add the esn or meid to their database and "accept" the phone. good luck soldier.

You just said its SIM unlocked....Pageplus is CDMA only, cannot use a SIM card phone. Mainly verizon and sprint phones on pageplus

Don't waste your time. Ive been trying since the 13th to get VZW to add my ESN to their DB. your best bet is to do an ESN modification.

Page Plus will activate any unlocked CDMA phone. It can't be that difficult. Email their customer service and see what they say.

ACtivated but no data
Sprint Touch Pro2 now activated on PagePlus, but only text and voice. I've used EPST & QPST to alter settings, but can't get data.
Anyone successful at this?

Maybe you should flash a cooked ROM on it and do the Verizon provisioning. That might get your data going...

I am using a cooked ROM, and have loaded Verizon provisioning, I think. Have you done this on yours and got it working? What ROM? Can you give me a link to the provisioning cab you used? That'd be great!
thanks.

No, I haven't done it. I activated a Verizon phone on Page Plus for a friend a while back, but that is the only experience I have with them.
Maybe put one of the cooked ROMs that is made for Verizon on your phone. That would essentially turn it into a Verizon phone, so I don't see what difference there could be.

whoa!!!

I guess that is a possibility as both roms are CDMA. I would research it carefully beforehand. If you can get txt and voice there shouldn't be any reason you can't get data. sd

Not sure if this will help but I activated my xv6800 on PagePlus and voice & text worked but not data. Once I changed the Data Connection login to the following, data worked.

The Sprint TP2 (which the OP said he was using) is a CDMA/GSM world phone.
Which means it has a SIM card for the GSM radio in addition to an ESN for the CDMA radio.
Just because the phone takes a SIM card doesn't mean it is GSM only.

Hi Guys, Im an old newb but got some info for ya....
First, pageplus info is best found over at HowardForums.com, in the pageplus forums, please go there, and research, tons of info, but off the back, If anyone needs to get a line activated on Pageplus PM me, I can assist with that.
Use these detail, which I obtained from the Sprint HTC Phone to Pageplus Wiki pages over at HoFo: wiki.howardforums.com/index.php/Most_HTC_Devices, mods please let me know if this kind o post is prohibited
PS: the info on XDA is usually so good that I hardly ever need to post... But I would like to be more help to soemone, since so many otherz do the same...

Still yet to find even one person who personally has had success getting data on a SPRINT Touch Pro2 with PagePlus...
No one??
I've gotten dozens of folks who tell me how to do it, but I have yet to see anyone personally accomplish it.

bull crap
theres no way this can be right. I have tried
Username: min

Dialup number: #777
The user must set the proxy server to - ppcgw1.vzwreseller.com
Ports must be set to - 8080
i have also tried
Username: qnc

Dialup number: #777
and i mixed them both! Im pulling my hair out man! there has got to be somebody that knows something.
there is no way we cant find away around this like for metro or cricket. i had a diamond and touch pro with data and mms on metro and pageplus is a very cheap company that doesnt even have a server to begin with. when they activated my phone they got me on file for a samsung flip phone!
I have a sprint touch pro2 what is the deal!

I've seen a couple posts on PPC Geeks where people have got Sprint Touch Pro 2's working on Verizon. I would imagine it's probably the exact same process to get it working on Page Plus.
Maybe you should search for people that got it working on Verizon. I would imagine you'll have better luck that way.

[Q] Cyanogen Froyo for Milestone CDMA

Since I can't ask my question here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=929646 because of the 10 message limit on the site, I'll ask it here.
Does this apply to the USA Alltel CDMA version? I have the a854 and I've been getting mixed signals from forums all over the web, Motorola and Alltel as to whether I'll be able to get an official update to 2.2 on my device or not. I'm tired of waiting. Could someone tell me whether this will work for me or not?

Well the official is released long back for ther Droid(milestone) did you change it from verizon to Alltel?

And the link you have for is Milestone which is the GSm version, the CDMA version is know as Droid

Since I'm on Alltel, the name for it is Milestone. It's the same thing as the Droid (since it's CDMA USA version), just with a different name because Droid is exclusive to Verizon. The only reason I haven't gotten the update, to my knowledge anyway, is because Motorola isn't distributing the update to Alltel and a few other carriers.
But everyone I have talked to has said "Hmm.. you have the Verizon Droid.. that's the model number for it". But I didn't get it from Verizon, I got it at the Alltel store. I even had to argue with Motorola on the phone yesterday because they told me I didn't know what I was talking about, and that I must have gotten it from the Verizon store because Alltel doesn't carry that phone. I'm guessing they are releasing it out to other carriers and forgetting about it?
Now, I'm pretty confused as to what steps I need to take to achieve this. Everyone keeps telling me "No, you have this.. you have that......" and I'm actually just really confused.. no other way to explain it. Do I try to find something that will work with a CDMA Milestone, or will anything for the Droid be compatible? Or are they both just the same phone, but different name?
I have already rooted it with Universal Androot and installed Rom Manager (Premium). Now I guess all I need to know is what to do from there. I have allowed superuser permission to Rom Manager, I pressed Flash Alternate Recovery and then pressed Flash ClockworkMod Recovery. Then I pressed Backup Current Rom. Where to from there?
I see a list of roms, so do I just find one and install it? I see a lot of tutorials on how to do everything, but most of them talk about how the MMS isn't working and you have to go into the stock rom to get the MMS settings and then move it to the new rom.. kinda confusing, but I think if I have gotten this far I'll be able to understand it better if someone could just explain the rest of it regarding this particular phone.

I figured it all out. Now I have a full on Droid.

I don't get that part, lol.
Did you try going into system information and check the Baseband version?
If it's "3GSM.....09.04I" then I'm pretty sure that's a Milestone.

I'm pretty sure there is no Milestone that is CDMA, i can bet a $100 on that, you have the alltell CDMA droid
EDIT: ok i'm wrong, the phone is known as Milestone due to the fact that Verizon has exclusive rights to the name, but your phone is still CDMA and have to follow the Droid section, flashing a radio or anything with the GSM version will brick it

I didn't go with the GSM version since I have the CDMA. I downloaded Rom Manager and went with the Droid version. Had to mess with the APN but finally got everything working. Now I'm just trying to figure out how to get my old market back cause I'm now on the Verizon market.

I've been looking off and on for the past 2 months to get my own CDMA Milestone A854 running version 2.2 or better, and this is the first success story I've come across. Please tell me you still remember the steps you took? (and that it doesn't matter who my carrier is? Mine isn't among those previously mentioned)

[NS4G] Nexus S 4G on MetroPCS?

MetroPCS does not have this phone listed in it's list of flashable phones.
How might I get this working? If I were to get my hands on a MetroPCS ROM for another android device, is it possible I could piece together a working ROM? Or does anyone have any other ideas?
It's currently set up for Sprint (clean ESN for Sprint, not that it matters much for what I'm trying to do).

....... no
one rom for 1 phone doesn't work for another. it requires work to port

Yep, I got that. I was more asking if there is something I can get from an existing metropcs ROM to clue me in onto what changes to make.
If I reset the SPC, upload a metropcs PRL, and I'm assuming change any wap settings to use metropcs's internet... is that enough? Or is there really more to it than that?

the answer is no.
WiMAX isn't even on MetroPCS. It uses LTE. There is just way too much difference in terms of radios and frequencies.

Ahhh. Thanks for the info. Guess I'll activate on Sprint then. Anything to get away from AT&T right now, service in my areas has been horrible for months.

Metropcs nexus S`
Well obviously the 4g portion of it is different.
Now the evdo and supposedly 3g should work on are where metropcs has it.
Its no problem otherwise you can do everything you can with the nexus, just at a slower Internet speed.
You should probably be able to follow a tutorial for a samsung phone.

Is it possible to get an unlocked CDMA Nexus S so that I can use it with Metro PCS. Which brings up another question, would Metro PCS allow me to use the Nexus S on their service?

Technically, the Nexus S as well as the Nexus S 4G are "unlocked" and can be rooted with no special hacks. I would imagine that MetroPCS can develop their own ROM along with a radio and make it available on their site if users choose to do that. I don't believe there is anything in Sprint's contract which would cause a lawsuit for doing that.
The question is if MetroPCS will allow this phone on their network... it's up to them but I don't see why not, as they don't make money on phones anyway (I think)

Why would MetroPCS make a ROM for a phone that is unsupported? They'd have to go to Google to make a compatible phone in the first place.
Why would they spend money on making a ROM for the Nexus S? That just makes no sense. A radio is also not open-sourced. Radios can only be created by Samsung or Google for the Nexus S.

Get your facts straight
Whoever asked the thread said nothing about ROMs. He asked if an unlocked nexus s could be flashed over to metro which it should be able to.

Hey guys I have ns4g just about everything works except for mms..if you want mms you have to use whatsapp...so if you guys can build a metro rom for the ns4g that will be great

Not going in to detail, but if anyone has any knowledge on how to, please hit me up. If you are going to post "its illegal", save it. Because honestly, I dont give a rats ass. Thanks.

It's against the law. lol

Just out of curiosity, how is it illegal?

Here is the short version. To unlock cdma phones, you need a donor phone to get the esn, meid, ect, and then clone them in to the phone you are unlocking. I guess cloning the ESN is illegal. And thats a must to unlock cdma phones to run on other carriers. I dont really know if its illegal since I own both phones.

I know a PRL code is needed... okay, I think a PRL code is needed. As far as I know b_randon14's mod spoofs it. Whether this is a functioning PRL code or not, I do not know.
As to everything else, you know more than I do already.

I can tell you how but I forgot which thread, so I would have to be digging through a whole forum section...

Try looking in HowardForums' Virgin Mobile USA site (under Sprint Prepaid) if you haven't already. Their information is very good, although it doesn't go beyond anything too "illegal." I would recommend it as a starting point though.

I know how to get it flashed over except i don't know how to get picture mail working. I have a few ideas but no funds to try them out. If anyone has an Optimus V or Samsung Intercept that they are willing to mess around with I'd me more than happy to try to help.

Can you please help,i spent 150 on Optimus and activation,had to reinstall windows7 and been at this for 4 days now,im ready to murder someone,lol.

You realize that even if you get the Evo 4G activated on Virgin Mobile, it's not going to be "4G" anymore?
I would wait until the EVO 3D comes out for Virgin Mobile, and until we actually have WiMAX setup and working (if it's available in your area).

I've had my evo for almost 3 years and I've never been able to use my 4g. The towns I've lived in had 4g but it was only one strip through the town and I didn't live in the area that actually had it. Only time I was able to use it was once in Las Vegas and it just drained my battery so its not even a big deal that you lose 4G. Sprint is abandoning 4G anyway and going to LTE.
Here is a link that should help everyone get their phones on Virgin.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1620377

It's nowhere near illegal or that hard to do. I've been using my sprint Epic Touch 4G on Virgin for a few months with no issues (many people have done the same. As long as you are actually paying for the service you use and not cloning someone else's phone, you're legal) . Yes I have no 4g but all the high speed web activity I do is at home on wifi. There is a step by step guide to do it. Just search "epic 4g to virgin" on these forums. It's not simple for someone who doesn't hack their phones but anyone who's had to jailbreak an iPhone should be able to do it. It took a couple of tries for mine to take as I missed a step. Be sure to follow the guide exactly. Google "epic 4g to virgin" and select the guide from groovypost.com if you want a concise guide with screenshots.
Virgin just lanched some wimax devices so i hope we can tap into that pipleine as well. Now to get 4g working...

I'll say it before you get flamed. This is the wrong section for this question. This is for the EVO Shift. But that being said, in order to Unlock the EVO4G to work on AT&T is quite a job. If it's even posiible. I do know you can use the EVO4G on Metro PCS , Boost Mobile, and several other Prepaid Carriers.

It wouldn't work on AT&T anyways. The Evo is CDMA and ATT is GSM. Two different technologies, ie you don't have a Sim Card slot so you can't get ATT. Not would it read ATT's frequencies. So you won't find anybody that can.

Ah, sorry about posting in the wrong section. There were like 4 EVO sections to choose from. Thanks for the info, I assumed it was impossible but the amount of pay-for sites which advertise unlocking to use on other carriers did not mention it not working on AT&T. I suspected CDMA vs GSM would be an issue, but am not familiar enough with those technologies to say for sure.
Is there a free method to unlock CDMA for use on other CDMA carriers then? I assume the method would be the same between all CDMA devices.
Sprint has been unhelpful thus far.

Sprint is not going to be of any help . They do not want you taking the device to another carrier. Also I'm not so sure other carriers want you bringing your own device from a different carrier onto their network. Like I stated above, the only way I'm aware of to do this is by going Prepaid. Which IMO is a PIA. As for letting someone else do the process for you. Be very weary of those offering to do it for you for money. Make sure there is some kind of guarantee. One that the device will not be damaged. Two that after the flash you will actually be able to activate the device on the Network you are supposed to be able to.

The only way possible is to flash a new esn on the device which has legal issues. The esn is tied to the carrier on all cdma networks. This prevents you from using a vzw phone on sprint and vice versa. Sprint nor vzw will let you activate an esn not in their system.
