Hi Guys,
I cannot use CDMA tool to change my carrier. This was successful when my phone was running 4.1.2, but now, cdma tool complains of CPS_ERROR BAD_SPC _MODE when trying to change IMSI. Even QPST fails to read the phone.
Can someone point me in the right direction? All I need is to reprogram my phone to another carrier.

Hi all,
I hope you can help me with the following:
Recently I bought an unlocked galaxy express i437 (the phone is originally from AT&T) and I am able to use it with other carriers with no problems but there is no way to change the technology (there is no "network mode" menu). Searching around, I found that it can be changed manually with code *#2263# and going through the sub-menus which is a pain to do.
I was thinking in rooting this phone and install CM10.2 in hopes of getting the network mode available directly from the settings screen but before I try that I need to know if the phone will remain SIM-unlock as it currently is or if there is a risk of having it bound to AT&T after the rooting process.
Thanks in advance.

hey guys new to the site....i was hoping somebody could help me... i have been trying to flash my phone at a cell phone shop but they were not able to do it. The owner tells me my phone is not remembering the flash when it boots back up...He has also tried rooting my s4 and it is still doing the same thing. They tell me it might be a motherboard issue. what do you guys think
I'm currently new to the xda forums, so I applogize in advance if i am posting in the wrong thread. But I currently recieved a samsung sph-d710 that was on sprint from a freind. I currently have a samsung galaxy reverb from virgin mobile that currently has service, and I've been reading around different forums and faqs about flashing phones to other carriers and was wondering if there was any way i could get this phone to work with my virgin mobile account. I know that virgin mobile has had this phone on there service before(my mom has one). And also is it possible for me to somehow rip off the stock virgin mobile android os from her phone? I've browsed around and couldnt find any downloads for the stock virgin mobile os for the phone, so i think this may be the only way for me to get the os. Also how would i go about copying her os system? Do i need to root her phone and create a clockwork mod recovery of her phone, then somehow extract that file to my computer, then use some program to fully flash it over? I'm all very new to the flashing carriers, although i do have basic knowledge of rooting and running custom roms. Does flashing a sprint phone to virgin have to be done with a special program on the computer(i have cdma workshop, but have no clue how to use it). And also even if i was able to flash the phone to virgin mobile, wont the esn still be registered as a sprint phone? Or is the esn device type specific? Also what is prl? Do they need to be updated? I guess in general i'm asking alot of question, but what are the steps to flashing the phone over, what all needs to be changed? If anyone can help answer one or all of these questions i would be forever greatful. Also pointing me to some tutorials would be greatly appreciated :fingers-crossed:
Hello all! I believe what I am trying to do is possible, but I am having trouble figuring out exactly where I should start.
I just bought a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 model SCH-I535 with a clear ESN on Ebay and am hoping to get it working with my Straight Talk service. It is running 4.0.4. Will I need to update? Is rooting required? I have tried updating manually but it failed. Is there a universal android 4.1.2 (or other) firmware file I need or do I need a file specifically for my phone?
The phone came with a Verizon sim card, and the phone I am currently using on ST does not have a sim card, so I am assuming that I will need to buy an AT&T sim card, right? Then I can activate that sim onto my ST account? Then the rest is a matter of the proper settings?
Thank you all for your expertise.
Hi,
I recently brought over my SM-G920A from ATT to T-mobile. I cannot get the ATT phone to recognize the existence of the Signal Booster--which works great on T-Moble phones--so I cannot connect to it. I have been a few rounds with others here that have walked me through the attempt to flash this phone with T-Mobile baseband load and it simply will not work. The phone is unlocked and is using the following load:
baseband G920AUCS7ERC1
BUILD NRD90M G920AUCS7ERC1
I have dev mode unlocked and have no idea what to set those settings at or what they were originally, I attempted to flash SM-GO-G920T onto it but it will not take because there is no current bootloader that can overwrite the ATT version.
So, I'm about to go back and flash the old software back on here.
But, I would really like to see if anyone has any ideas that can help me either get this phone to recognize the T-Mobile 4G-LTE signal booster or help me figure out how to get this phone to accept the SM-G920A load all together.
I would like to thank everyone in advance for your time. Please help.
Thanks and have a great day!
Hello all,
I'm really new to the phone modification scene. I tinker around with computers mostly. I have an unlocked sprint version of the LG v20, the only problem is I am not receiving data on my new carrier (even with the correct apn added). I'm pretty sure this is a firmware issue. I was wondering if there was a way to flash the us996 or verizon version of the phone to get data to work. I know the sprint version is super locked down. I just didn't know if using a modded version of LGUP and the us996 kdz would brick the phone or not.
Thanks and cheers,,
