then you gotta remove your esn of the touch pro from boost mobile call them and tell them you want to remove the esn and then activate your new esn

i try that, and when they asked me to hit ##3282# i was unable to access the msid code to switch it to my number. the phone is unlocked with the new unlock tool.

[Q] Delete APN from T-mobile to use Solavei

Hi everyone. I am new to this forum, but trying to find an answer to my problem.
I have an HTC Sensation 4G from T-mobile running 4.0. Recently started Beta testing Solavei. I put the Apn settings that they gave me in the phone. I am getting 4G data, but I can't get mms. Ivemtried several suggestions of other users, but it seems none of them are using the sensation.
I saw a thread on this forum about a file that will reset the factory T-mobile APN, but I'm not exactly sure how I would go about putting the file in and if this would help. I am not really interested in rooting the phone or developing or anything like that.
There are 2 APN's solavei gave me. One for data and one for mms. There are 2 other t-mobile APN's in the phone (data and mms). I'm worried I might need to delete the tmobile mms, but since it's 4.0 I can't use back up and restor to do it.
Any help would be appreciated.

Try this go to Setting/Mobile network/Acces Point Names and then press the menu button. When the pop up menu appears select Reset to default. Then open the T-Mobile APNs and edit those APNs to the APNs for Solavei. Make sure press the menu button and select save before you back out of the APNs. Do this for both the data APNs and the MMS APNs.
Also if Reset to defaults does not remove all other APNs then do this. Select the APNs you want to remove and then press the menu button and select either Delete APN or Discard. One of these should remove the APNs. I think if you just edit the original T-Mobile APNs your device should work properly. But you may have to remove the T-Mobile APNs all together and just creat new APNs for Solavei.

Neither of those work, because the APN's are locked ( there is a little lock next to them). Reset to default just leaves them there and they are uneditable. I already tired both. But thanks for the advise. I'll keep looking for an answer.

Have you SIM unlocked your device? Also the APNs that the device is using should have a little green dot to the right of the data APN.
Edit: I reread your first post and I think you are talking about the PG58DIAG.zip file. This file will allow you to SIM unlock your device, you must be SIM unlocked to use another carrier with your device. You can find this file in this thread here. You just need to put the file on the root of your SD card and then boot your device into the bootloader and it will automatically scan for the file and ask if you want to install the update. Just follow the on screen instructions and then follow the on screen instructions when the diagnostic starts. Here is a hint when you are done running the diagnostic you will have to pull the battery and then put it back in. Also when running the diagnostic you want to choose yes for all the options it ask if you want to do.

I unlocked it using the htcdev. Is this different? The green dot is on the solavei data APN, but there is no green dot for MMS.

Yes SIM unlock is different from unlocking your bootloader which is what HTC Dev does. When you SIM unlock the device you unlock it so it can use any SIM card from any carrier, if you do not SIM unlock it you can not use the device on any other carrier but the carrier the device was made for. The thread you linked is just for unlocking the T-Mobile APNs to try and keep them from knowing you are using your device as a mobile hotspot for other devices. It has nothing to do with unlocking APNs for use with other carriers.

Ok, thanks. I will try the instructions that you sent me. Thanks so much!

Is the phone unlocked, if not you may need to get it unlocked for the sim to work. The phone may also be a "Global ready" phone and not "Globally Unlocked" phone meaning that you can use it with a Verizon plan but thats it.

Well, its unlocked, The phone doesn't asks me for any unlock codes. I can RUN CDMA sims only but not GSM. When i insert a gsm sim it says 'This sim is from unknown osurce'. In about phone service state is:- 'Service is out of service'. I had cheked some one in this forum uploading a GSM PATCH for Verizon CDMA smartphones for Motorola, but i couldn't do it. My phone is now on Kitkat stock ROM and i cant even root it.

I don't know about the phone you are talking about, but may be your phone only supports CDMA Bands. It is an hardware problem and may not be corrected by any rooting methods.

[GUIDE]Unlock Any LTE Band[TESTED][100% Working]

This method is only known to be working on VZW M8's.
I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IF SOMETHING WRONG HAPPENS TO YOUR DEVICE BY FOLLOWING THIS GUIDE!
Before proceeding ahead Just check which bands your service provider uses and note it down somewhere.
(Since there are many people out there who have asked about jio or other indian carriers, for their convinience i am writing a short note : In india Reliance Jio is using band 3,5 and 40 and airtel is using band 3 and 40. all other carriers are also using these three frequencies only i.e. 3,5 and 40. I am no longer using my verizon m8 currently i have an indian galaxy S7, but when i was using my m8 i was able to connect to band 3 using airtel, i also tried using jio but it doesn't work at least for me.)
Steps To Unlock The LTE Bands :
First of all ensure you are on stock verizon rom.(Its Really Easy to Enter Diag Mode On Stock Verizon ROM)
if not use an RUU from this thread(use the latest one.):-HERE
Install HTC Sync Manager on your PC before proceeding ahead, by putting your phone into install mode.
Now once you have flashed the ruu or you are already on stock verizon rom and also installed htc sync manager, Follow these steps :-
1. Download DFS Tool
2. Skip this step if you are using a CDMA SIM.
Put your phone into cdma mode by going into Settings>Mobile Data>Network Mode>LTE Only Mode. Enable USB debugging as well.
3. Open Phone Dialler type on the Dial Pad ##3424# and press call button. Phone Should enterr into diag mode. If you are on marshmallow firmware phone will ask for MSL code, Here it is - 000000(6 times zero).
4. connect your phone to the computer and install DFS Tool You just downloaded on your computer.
5. Optional : Create an account on this website - https://www.cdmatool.com/
6. Open DFS tool and login or just skip the login if you do not have cdmatool.com account.
7. Now you will see your m8 listed as PORTXX(X - Refers to any number between 0-9) in DFS Tool. Double click on it.
8.On the DFS Logs window you should read something like device connected.
9.Now in main DFS Window click on Band Tab, then under the bands tab you will see two tabs, HSPA and LTE click on Latter one.
10.Click Read.
11. Select the LTE bands you need.
12. Click write.
13. Restart Your Phone Once.
14 Put It Back Into GSM Mode/CDMA mode depending on your network provider.
For Stock ROM Users Only/Custom ROMs Based on Verizon stock ROM/Still Not Getting LTE
1.Download This APP
2.Then Select GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto in the App
Still not getting LTE?
Reset phone through stock recovery(4.4.X reccomended.)
Test for at least a day and then report back by either participating in the poll above or replying below.

Is this permanent for the phone? Will it be the same after I flash any other custom roms?

Flashing a rom shouldn't change it. It would only change if you flashed an RUU or flashed just the firmware for the phone.

Yes it should remain as is no matter whatever ROM u flash.
As far as firmware flashing is concerned i will get back to you on that one.

You might not be having that good 4g reception in your area. That can be the most probable reason. Try using your SIM in some other 4G phone and tell if the same thing happens.

I tried this on my GSM-unlocked HTC One M8 (w official marshmallow installed), but I can't seem to get into the diag. mode. I was asked for MSL code after I type in ##3424#, but I don't have the MSL code.
Anyway to get MSL code or get by this one? Do I have to unlock the phone to do the steps as in OT? Mine is still locked and S-ON.
Your help will be very appreciated.

'##3424#' wont work on GSM M8.
You will have to enter diag mode by different means.
Try this code-
HTML:
adb shell
su
echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/f_diag/on

After you are done with unlocking bands use this code to disable diag-

Tried your code, but adb gave me the following:

Does this mean I have to unlock and S-OFF my phone?
When I type in command su, it's not a valid command. I assume su means superuser? My phone isn't rooted, still S-ON.

You will need root access without that it will not be possible to enter Diag mode in your case.
If you have non-verizon m8...why dont you just unlock bootloader via HTC Dev and root your phone. Also you can root your phone with kingroot without needing to either unlock bootloader or S-Off the phone iff you are on 5.x.x or lower as far as i know(Many people having verizon M8 used kingroot to achive s-off via sunshine while they were on 5.0.1).

Mine is a Verizon GSM-unlocked M8, just upgraded to Android M (Verizon version of course) a couple of days ago. I guess I'll have to get the sunshine to unlock and s-off it then.

If you have verizon m8 then you can unlock bands without root.
You need to go to cdma mode from global mode amd then go to dial pad then ##3424# as it says above in guide........
There is no verizon gsm model but all verizon m8s have gsm built in so that they can support lte, as lte is a different technology from both cdma and gsm but based on gsm.

11. Select the LTE bands you need.

Per Verizon, their M8 supports LTE Band 13 / 4 (700/1700 MHz).
Has anyone had success using this method to unlock bands 2/4/12 for LTE on AT&T/T-Mobile? I'd be especially interested if anyone is successful unlocking bands 3/7/20 for use in the UK and Europe. (I have a very tentative plan to visit the UK and it would be great if I could get 4G speeds while I'm there.)

I can confirm about 2,3,4,7,9,40.
One person has even written that he was succeful to unlock all bands.
Go ahead and give it a shot, 2,3,4,7,12,13,20 are the bands you are looking for....

ANS UL40 How to get SPC

I am trying to get the SPC (MSL) from this phone to get info off of it using DFS CDMA tools. I have tried telling DFS to ignore MSL and what info I can read I don't think is all I need to flash another phone. I have tried connectBot and many others and when I enter (getprop ril.MSL) It shows nothing. I cannot root the phone to be able to use the command "su". Cannot find any info online as to what the MSL could be. Have tried the standard 000000 1111111 123456 and so on. Nope. All suggestions online I have found on how to get the MSL without root do not work. Anybody have a phone like this or have suggestions on what to do next.
I am trying to flash a SM-N900P phone over to Assurance Wireless and cannot get writing the IMEI from UL40 PHONE to stick ON THE note 3. The MEID sticks but not the IMEI. The UL40 phone uses a sim card and I believe it uses both the sim card numbers and the ESN and such to get service on the note 3. All I get is your account cannot be verified when dialing any number. Someone's got to know something on what else I can try.
DFS tools connect note 3 unlock it using spc and password. Enter info all I can get to stick in MEID IMEI and such. Add sim card number to @htc.sprintpcs.com or UL40 IMEI number @htc.sprintpcs.com. The UL40 shows info from dfs profile as my [email protected] have tried that and or the [email protected] When the IMEI and MEID are not the same on flashing I get no sim card inserted when it is indeed in or I get sim card has locked reboot phone. I have sim unlocked the note 3. Probably didn't need to do that but did anyway.

i know almost nothing about this process but Matthew702 purported in this post to have some success unlocking the phone's bootloader, though didn't get any further as far as i can tell. you might be able to collaborate? i hope this is remotely helpful, you sound like you know what you're doing and i certainly don't!
