[Q] Is it possible to add CSC from SGS to SNS (Nexus S)?

the phone is working fine
except instead of showing the Name of my cell phone provider, it only shows the tower ID number.
I was supposed to see:
Wind (Home)
or
Wind (Away)
they show up properly on my SGS and XT720
Ironically, with the SNS, i did not even have to configure the APN settings, it automatically got both the MMS and Internet APN settings.
kinda funny if you ask me, it knows the Wind internet and multimedia settings but can't report the tower names
if i use the Wind (Away) towers i get charged roaming
so ideally i'd like to only use Wind (Home) similar to Tmobile Zones towers for my 3G and voice, to not see a huge bill at the end of the month

This thread on Howard Forums might interest you if you haven't found it already. Seems like the difference is that Wind sends out number instead of name if I read it correctly.
You might be able to edit the eri.xml file to deal with this, as instructed in this thread on xda for AOSP roms.
As far as CSC goes, I don't think the NS uses that. I've never seen it mentioned in discussions about other devices besides the Galaxy S line of phones using Samsung ROMs.
P.S. - be careful messing with the frameworks apk. I made a bad edit to the one on my i9000 once and it wouldn't boot. Easy enough to fix by replacing with a good copy, though.

Thanks for those 2 links
I'll check them out.
That's very helpful, if it's a simple edit of the file
I've been busy jumping between the 3 forum, and fixing the SGS i9000m to work properly, which i just got back yesterday, and it pretty much died on me right away after upgrading to JL2 and restoring only the backup for user app+user app settings (no system app/data restored)

Heh I've been wondering about this too... but seeing "302490" instead of "Wind (Home)" doesn't really bother me that much... I'll know if it's Wind Away when the number is different lol.

Yeah, that's what some in the Howard Forums say; as long as they know they're not roaming. When you're on Wind Away, does the "roaming" indicator show? The framework shows there's a flag for it.
I would be with Allgamer myself; I'd like the proper carrier name to show.

well New Year eve is here
and the "long weekend" is starting soon
if i have time after the parties and stuff to work on the quick fix, i'll upload the file to share for the rest of the XDAers on Wind Mobile

There's an easy fix for that.
On the dialing screen, dial *#*#4636#*#*
Phone information->choose WCDMA only (Wind runs on 3G only).

Assuming it actually works...
Looking forward to hearing the results, even though the issue doesn't affect me.

i spend time trying a few this morning and nothing....
because there is only 1 SPACE !!!!! available to Hex Edit a letter into the xml file
i tried the other method they mentioned further down into the topic, and it was not compatible
good thing i was flashing my phone a few times.
running TW ROM right now.
so in the end, it is Do able, but we only get 1 letter out of it.... which IMO is worse than seeing the full row of numbers 302490

[HELP]Evo Shift 4G to Virgin Mobile

I have an Evo Shift 4G on Virgin Mobile with the calling and texting working but no Data or 3G or MMS. I used a Virgin Mobile LG Optimus V as the Donor Phone.
Not sure if I need to find the ha secret keys and the aaa secret keys but if that is it, they will not load in QXDM. I recieve an "Error Response Recieved From Target..."
Any help is appreciated.

You're definitely going to need those keys from the OV.
The HA shared secret is: "vmug33k" (text string) This is standard on all VM phones, and will actually get you 1x Speeds.
The AAA is going to be located in one of your NV Items. On the Optimus, I'm not actually sure which item it is, BUT..
Use QPST, launch the EFS Explorer, goto the NVM folder and pull these keys (copy and paste) to a folder on your desktop:
465, 465_1, 466, 466_1, 1192, 1194
Use a program called HxD Editor to read these items.
On the Intercept, the AAA is located in 466_1... Again, not sure about the OV.
When viewing with HxD, look for an NV item with "vmug33k" on the right.. Under it will be your AAA Key...
It will look like something like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now you have both keys!
Input/Write these keys onto the new phone in QPST/Service Programming/ Under the M.IP tab. Making sure to match ALL information in this tab with the donor. Also, make sure when entering the keys to switch it to "text string"
Think that should get it!
Any questions just ask!

You can try THIS thread , and HERE.

I know this is an old thread but...I haven't seen a single person saying they succesfully retrieve the AAA key from an LG Optimus V.
Has anyone succeed?
Edit: I found the answer, yes.

No even if It's almost the same phone the boot.img at the very least would need changed. At least that's how it is for pyramid and doubleshot, very little needs changed but it still takes some work

"VSNCP Registration Response Error"

I got this error just now when I switched my wifi off. If I tap it, nothing happens. Everything seems to be functional. I had a very weak signal where I was when I got it.
Now, I'm new to Sprint. Is this something anyone has ever seen before on another device? What does it mean?

I've seen this error a couple times... in my case everything worked fine when I received the error as well. I've read a couple other people having this error... so I don't think it's ununusual or indicative of bad hardware.

It seems to show up semi-consistently when doing a profile update (possibly PRL as well). Google it and you'll find some posts on the Sprint community forums too.

How about this little number?
This pops up unexpectedly before and after I "rooted" mine.
VSNCP Error 5-GW Reject

There is a stupid stupid bug with the Photon Q that causes this.
Dial ##DATA# on your phone, go to "Data Profile" and look at your username. It should be [email protected] but instead theres an extra .com at the end.
Thats what causes the error (and also apparently stops you from receiving MMS). You have to contact Sprint customer service to get a special code to allow you to edit your username in the Data Profile. That fixed it for me.

Throwing in my two cents:
This seems to fix the 8-GW Reject error but not the 5. FYI, if you call them and fix the extra ".com" keep all the information. Whenever you get a new profile (initiated by you or Sprint) the bad username in the the Profile will come back and have to fix it again.
Called sprint a couple times about this. They told me it was a hardware problem and the phone had to be replaced! I don't believe that for a second but couldn't get any real information out of them. Another rumor is it's caused by some problem connecting to 4g though that is also unconfirmed.

I'll stick with my Q lol. Until then I hope this phone can upgrade to Jelly within the rooted phone. Can't install moto updates as of right now. (Deodexd w/ TWRP)

I continue to receive this error occasionally (every couple days). I'm on the latest moto update, my data username is fine, and I do not have any MMS problems ever since I fixed the MMS on Wifi issue (while on Wifi, MMS attachments report unable to send until mobile data is enabled - sending a picture via gmail to self over wifi fixes this somehow).
It doesn't seem to cause any issues, however I read reports that calls won't come in until it is cleared from the notification bar, so try to notice it and clear it when you can.
FYI, the code that Sprint gives you when you need to edit something under the ##3282# (##DATA#) menu is called your MSL or Master Subsidy Lock code. This is unique to your phone so if you get it, keep it written down somewhere. If you're on this forum, you will likely need it at some point.
Edit: Another note... I've also seen reports that this error has to do with LTE network handshake, and for me that makes sense because my subdivision unfortunately is in a dead spot in the middle of an LTE coverage area. So I'm sure I'm getting faint signals causing the handshake to attempt and fail. If you're not in an LTE coverage area, you can switch to CDMA only mode under Settings -> Wireless and Networks -> More... -> Mobile Networks -> Network Mode. That should help.

Woke up to the phone with a VSNCP Registration Response / Error 3 no P-GW available.
I checked ##DATA# and my username email address is correct. Voice and data both worked with the error.
Also I use an Airave due to such a poor service area.
Edit:
Woke up next day and new VSNCP Registration Response / Error 5: P-GW Reject

I haven't updated yet. Still a little reluctant to do it since we don't have root yet. Don't want this to be the patch. :/

No, no change log. Also checked on AT&T's software update site and they don't have this new update listed yet. All they have is the one we got last month that updated AT&T's address book app.
Phone is rebooting now..

I don't see anything different right off the bat, but will report back if anything has changed/improved.

any news on touchscreen?

Just insatalled going to uninstall SGS screenbooster to see if there is a fix for the touchscreen. Will report back

Just wondering, did it skip from software version H81010e to H81010g or did I miss an update?
Is LG or AT&T posting change logs anywhere?
Is there any tool that will let us pull version data from the APKs so we can see what's updated?
I've been out of the scene for awhile (first new phone since the One X) so please pardon me if the answers to my questions are common knowledge.

im on 10e, and tried to manual check for 10g, says i'm up to date... can't check again for 24hrs.

Yes, the software went from "e" to "g" with one update. It is normal during software development to not release every point release.
Change logs do get posted, but they are not very good and they are not timely (it may take a few days).

Wonder if I will get this since I use my h810 on tmo's network. I checked for update but it didn't find anything.

You can check for updates again by simply changing your date

Verizons 11A update had performance and touchscreen updates. Definitely feels faster and touchscreen feels more responsive.
Although my battery is at 30% where normally this time of the day is at 70%. And also my Qi Charger had my phone rebooting this morning.

ROMs with Verizon network support

Didn't forsee this being an issue once I got the bootloader unlocked. Is there a list of ROMs with Verizon network support?

I've never found a list. Carbon ROM is the only one that works for me with my Verizon MVNO. The Dev explained to me that Verizon is a "black box" and developers have to best guess to make things work.

Several years ago I moved from Sprint (CDMA like Verizon) to then Metro PCS (GSM) when I first came to XDA because of the incompatibility of many roms. Because most the world uses GSM... I would ask someone who knows exactly what to do to make Verizon work and try and master whatever that may be. Back in the day (NexusS4G days, Nexus 5) people who used Sprint, we had a zip we'd flash at the end of our installation and it would set the proper apns needed for us to have data. But I believe there is more to it with Verizon....
I have a OnePlus 6t now and I see many people with same issues and they have no data. Something with the phone not being able to read the sim card from what I've heard... I sent someone in 6t forums directions on how to swap apns-conf.xml and he said it didn't work and told me it was something else ...
If ypu want you can try this:
Save your apns-conf.xml located in your /system/product/etc/ while you are on Carbon rom and have working data. Then when you flash another rom delete the two existing files that are in the rom that has no data. So delete both the apns-conf.xml located in /system/product/etc/ and also located in your /product/etc/ and replace only the one in /system/product/etc/ with your working apns-conf.xml from Carbon rom that you had data working on. Then set permissions on the one you pasted in to 0644 using root explorer or whatever root file manager you use. After that go to settings/networks and internet/mobile networks/access point names/ and select the three dot and select "reset to default." If this is indeed an APN issue this will fix it and give you working data. Give it 2-3 minutes after you reset the APN to default. If you see LTE/5G pop up in your status bar, reboot and you'll be good from then on. That is, "if" this is an APN issue. If not then at least you tried something. I used this method MANY times on different devices and different carriers over the years and it always worked for me when I have no data after installing a rom. I'll attach some pics of permissions 0644 and all to this post. Credit for this goes to spaceminer where I first discovered this apn xml data fix.

From what I've researched so far it seems the issue only really relates to A11 and will be fixed when OOS is out of closed beta. Verizon is terrible about relinquishing control for devices they don't even own anymore. I've tried a few A10 roms and haven't really had any trouble. Supposedly KangOS got verizon data working on A11 but when I flashed it wasn't working, so maybe an older build.
