????

since Boost&Virgin Mobile are flipping the switch on 4G/Wimax in June, if I flash my HTC Evo 4G to Boost Mobile will the 4G WiMax work? I'm on 2.3.5. and Baseband 2.18.0.0.1
[EVO 4G General] eljean:
I haven't heard that, but 4g and wimax settings are a bit complicated and require the latest CDMA Workshop which u can't find for free in Google :-X
[EVO 4G General] gellybelly:
Yeah its true, well right now its a big rumor, but Sprint is going to take the LTE 4G and send the 4G wimax to Virgin first, then Boostmobile will also latch on soon after, its said both are going to switch in June.

This will be interesting to see, wont need the donor phone no more, as its said that with the wimax 4G, Virgin Mobile will be hooking up the EVO 3D and naming it something else. And Boostmobile will follow with something similar.

hmmmmmm

Here's some news about it:

[EVO 4G General] ariellestarchild:
you'll still need a donor phone because neither of them take ones that don't have their ESN or that are from other companies I spoke to them about it
[EVO 4G General] hectormanny:
evo on boost

All you have to do is make a call and let it talke you to sprint. The rep will ask you to verify the donors information and your information. then he will tell you to to reboot your phone to make a phone call for at least 30 seconds. and your done.

---------- Post added at 06:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:07 PM ----------

if you have a custom rom and cant use ##data#. Go to market download apn backup and restore. You have to have a memory card in the phone for this to work. Open up application and hit restore. scroll down until you see the boost apn.xml file and make sure you choose that one. it will install the settings for you. this works great for the samsungs phones.

---------- Post added at 06:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:13 PM ----------

Just for everybodys information. cdma workshop is only $99. And if you purchase the latest 3.8 you no longer have to use the open sesame solution with qpst or using qpst to zero out certain info that im not allowed to say. The new workshop will do one of the longest steps in 3 minutes. Then The rest is very easy. So get the latest workshop becuase chances are you will probably need it again when you upgrade to a different phone.
[EVO 4G General] gellybelly:
I second that. The full version I bought, just after I couldnt figure out the cracked version and gave up lol. Once I got the full version it was such a breeze.

Now it takes about a minute to save info and a minute to write info, easy.
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Just a warning about the thread no one better post any warez links to any sites or share anything related to cracked paid programs such as a cracked copy..
[EVO 4G General] gellybelly:
NEVER! will I do that. I'd rather pay for it.
[EVO 4G General] eljean:
Nobody will post any links in this thread to pirated materials. dont worry about it. I will delete it and save you the trouble of going through it.

And yes the full 3.8 version is a lot easier and better to use. If you get the full version thats all you need, no QPST or QXDM. I would post a guide for it but I really doubt a lot of people will get it.
[EVO 4G General] mkelsho:
I would like a guide
[EVO 4G General] kalehua4791:
I have the full version 3.8 and would love to get that guide......
[EVO 4G General] gellybelly:
I also made one up not too long ago, its in my pm's. For me its a 6 step process, takes about maybe 5 min max, if that, real simple. The last one I did I actually had to redo, something went wrong along the way, so reflashing took care of the issue (mms photo).

Though I still use the QXDM to get the spc for incognito, but rather quick too, its already where its supposed to be so when I hook it up and open prog its there lol
[EVO 4G General] ariellestarchild:
Boost Mobile&Virgin Mobile are getting 4G WiMAX in June, so I was wondering if I flashed my Evo 4G to Boost would the 4G WiMAX still work? if not, what do I need to do to make it work?
[EVO 4G General] TheDrake2k:
Yeah I think mine is the same question as arielle... this EVO is going to a friend on boost when I get the LTEVO [btw this thread rocks] so will it op on WiMax 4G?
[EVO 4G General] superbeak:
Work in the original Droid incredible? Thanks man.
[EVO 4G General] spooky187:
With the method of how you get the evo switched on to boostmobile, you won't be able to get 4g working on boostmobile even if 4g comes to it

As far as I know the ESN of the phones are attached to the 3g and 4g items. The ESN being used from the donor phone is only linked to the 3g and has no 4g capability. You can't attach the esn to a 4g of a different phone from what it seems.

I could be wrong....but this is how it seems.
[EVO 4G General] kalehua4791:
boost

i sure hope they figure out which phone in the future when 4g gets out for boost that could be used as a donor so i can keep using my evo....

thanks

[EVO 4G General] 9h0s7:
Didn't they confirm Boost getting the EVO Design?

Edit: Confirmation Link

[EVO 4G General] kalehua4791:
Wow thanks didn't see that.....
[EVO 4G General] mortgage_man:
Yes
[EVO 4G General] louforgiveno:
at this moment it's not possible, the system security kicks in on attempts to scan memory locations and prevents it.
[EVO 4G General] ctzw:
Does the donor phone has to be Sanyo Incognito ($60)??

I found some cheaper ones on boost site. Is it possible to use Sanyo

Juno ($40) or Motorola Clutch ($50) for such donor purpose? I just need a cheapest one for the donation purpose... And I will be using 'pay as you go' instead of 'monthly unlimited'..

Please provide me some instructions..
[EVO 4G General] shawayne21:
You can get an incognito on ebay for 40 bucks.

Make sure the charger port works.
[EVO 4G General] mortgage_man:
I used a Rant. I hear the Incognito is the easiest/best phone to use. My Rant donor worked fine. I think the major requirement for 3G data is that your donor phone is 3G capable.

Follow the OP's guide exactly as it says and you will be fine. Be patient.
[EVO 4G General] armars:
thanks,

rewrote AAA keys and got 3g :)
[EVO 4G General] louforgiveno:

[EVO 4G General] 00mustanggt:
i downloded the doc file but it does not open. and do i realy need a donor phone i have he motorola i1?
[EVO 4G General] vekkev:
Yo dudes.. i had my evo 4g on boost and i sold it to a gent in GA... well i put in his info in pro1 and pro0 and set to look to pro0. The phone and text work but for some reason i cant get like google.com to pull up? the internet just doesnt work.. and when i do send a text the 3g logo changes to a 1x for a split sec... Im in IN so i didnt know if there is some roam issues here or what setting im missing.. I had it working fine with my boost account. btw im on cyanogenmod 7 or something so i cant use those ##blabla# crap.. I have turned airplane mode on and off, reboots, and did a fresh install, flashed from ZIP and put a clean rom on.

Any of you smart gents have a idea on what my issue could be? need my internetz
[EVO 4G General] eljean:
Will not work with Evo 3D. Evo 3D is not currently flashable because the Esn and MEID locations are encrypted.
[EVO 4G General] eljean:
Just redo everything.
[EVO 4G General] RainWind:
I'm glad someone finally posted a good guide on this.

I thought I'd share some additional info. Here's a script for QMAT/Revskills that auto-zeros your ESN/MEID. Yeah.. 1 click and you're good to go into QXDM to write.

Requires a specific radio. 2.05.00.06.10

I can do my Evo in like 3 minutes.

Edit: Should probably explain a little. Google revskills. Download the trial and install it. Once your Evo is connected in Diag mode you load up Revskills and go to Hardware Forensics>Port Utils>QC+AT-Cmd. Make sure your phone shows in the dropdown, then go to the diag tab and choose Run Script.
[EVO 4G General] vekkev:
well i kinda did such as ha and aaa... i dont see why id have to redo anything else.. the meid and such wouldnt effect this.. i mean the only thing that doesnt work is the internet
[EVO 4G General] eljean:
I meant everything as in your AAA, your NV items and usernames.

That should fix it, you probably wrote the wrong passwords happened to me before.

If that does not work let me know
[EVO 4G General] surda:
does anyone know what the password is for the rar files inside the guide? please share thanks.
[EVO 4G General] mortgage_man:
That's why the OP says to search for the files on Google instead of downloading them from the guide. No one knows the password.
[EVO 4G General] J_apa_n:
I found this info on another site, and did my evo. I'll try to find it again so I can give you guys the pass.

Sent from anything but an iphone
[EVO 4G General] J_apa_n:
Also thanx to the op, this has been a very taboo subject since it talks about using a donner

Sent from anything but an iphone
[EVO 4G General] 00mustanggt:
And for the donor phone do I actually need the phone or just the esn. ?
[EVO 4G General] mrbr0nxNY:
Thanks for the reply.
[EVO 4G General] eljean:
U could use a 4g donor phone... I'd the same perspective u won't get 3g unless u use a 3g donor
[EVO 4G General] LeslieAnn:
I didn't watch the video, which is where the info comes from, but based on what I have seen on every other outlet, the actually things said was older wimax devices would be coming, but they didn't specify what those devices would be.

It pretty much confirms it, but the linked article acts as though they specifically mention the phones to be brought, which, like I said, no one else seems to be posting.

So while I would say the odds are about 75% that we will see the Evo 3d on Virgin and the Evo Design on boost, it's not a guarantee just yet.

qpst issue

Hello people,

I followed the guide step by step and everything went smooth, but now I'm stuck in qpst, for some reason is not detecting the incognito. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G General] louforgiveno:
did you install incognito drivers? Also those drivers Only work with XP....run virtual pc installation of XP or dual boot.
[EVO 4G General] LeslieAnn:
That is actually based on even older information.

To my knowledge they have yet to actually say exactly what we are getting.

Everything we know is from the Sprint meeting and Pocketnow's leak, that's it. The meeting didn't specify (at least as far as I can tell based on everything written about it) and as for the leaks... VM was supposed to get the Optimus Black, and look how that went.

On the other hand, more and more hints are coming and there is even pictures of the phones going around now, but those can always be faked. So while more and more likely, it's still not 100% just yet.
[EVO 4G General] csrohena:
Yes, I installed the incognito drivers and I'm working on XP...Does the donor needs to be on an active Boost account?
[EVO 4G General] 9h0s7:
The CEO of the company commented on it and they've released vauge information about system specifications.

The only more guaranteed you can get is a two page exclusive, release date and exact system specs.

Inevitably it will happen boost is getting 4G.
[EVO 4G General] louforgiveno:
Yes and no

Not to be recognized by qpst, but before you even attempt to flash donor needs to be activated on boost account and given time to provision (3G service)

Very important you do that.

Once that's done first, then do the qpst....First you'll wanna check in device manager that device is recognized then check the device settings and see what serial port number the phone is connected to (one of the last tabs in device info box) and then fire up qpst CONFIGURATION and add the device port, then you can proceed to whichever qpst service you need to run.
[EVO 4G General] joerolando2701:
hey everyone a question. Just rooted my brotherinlaws evo and installed a custom rom (energy) do I need to use the auto root kit which I can't seem download o r find anywhere or can I skip those steps does the different radio matter
[EVO 4G General] gmzombie:
question

ok i have done this and have been running fine for a while now. Im just starting to figure out that alot of my calls are going straight to voicemail. i have a evo 3d and my fiances is the 4g. i had both phones in my hand and called hers from mine and it went to voicemail. confused as we both had 2 or 3 bars i called from her phone and it called fine. then i called her back and it worked fine? i told her every so often if you dont get calls just call a number.that seemd to work but i dont know why that is doing that. im sure this is happening to my phone as well. do you think its the boost itself or the phones? on the 3d i was running the original 2.651 ota and she was running the last ota for the 4g and mind you it was happening then i think too. now i have cm9 on hers and i have the viper ROM ICS rom. any ideas? i flashed them both myself and flashed the nvitems 2 or 3 times each item just to be sure.
[EVO 4G General] 9h0s7:
It's a common problem. Some say firmware, others claim it's the networks.

Cellular phone provider is irrelevant.
[EVO 4G General] csrohena:
Everything you said is how I got it. The only thing missing is that the donor is not active. i will give a try... Thanks for the info...
[EVO 4G General] louforgiveno:
good luck, let me know
[EVO 4G General] joerolando2701:
anybody? Just need to know if I can skip the auto root kit section or if I need to change the radio first the phone is already rooted s off and on the newest radio
[EVO 4G General] youngchris29:
Yes you should be able to skip the auto root. I did and everything worked fine.
[EVO 4G General] 9h0s7:
I recommend you follow the tutorials steps exactly.

I have the files.
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
I have flashed countless Evo's to boost and have never rooted the phone first. You do not have to root it to flash to boost although you will miss out on quite a few good apps you must be rooted to use. Rooting the phone is needed in the guide you are using to downgrade basebands first but memory addresses that worked for my first evo on a specific baseband did not work for another guy with the same. There are methods that are much easier to do and much quicker than checking baseband addresses, PM if you need help.

Besides if the phone is already rooted and S-off, what would be the point in doing it again?
[EVO 4G General] youngchris29:
^^ EXACTLY!
[EVO 4G General] ViciousxGaruda:
Hello, I was wondering is there a way to Flash a Droid 3 to Boost Mobile? I'm deciding on getting Evo Shift to flash or a Droid 3 because of the physical Keyboard... If a Droid 3 can't be don't then I guess getting a Shift...
[EVO 4G General] youngchris29:
I'm sure there is a way for it to be flashed...I've heard of people who have flashed a Droid 2 and and the Droid incredible so I'm guessing the Droid 3 can be flashed. You might just have to search for a guide on Google or something.
[EVO 4G General] ViciousxGaruda:
I searched for two whole days. Most of them doesn't given me a real answer. I can't even find it on Craigslist....lol. Ima keep searching if not then Shift is to go.
[EVO 4G General] kolosus:
I flashed an Incredible last night. MDN/MSID are good. Can make phone calls. Wrote the profile 0 & 1 in properly but I cannot get data. Am I missing something? Oh and I wrote in a boost prl too. Roaming on/off is not effecting anything.

Suggestion folks?
[EVO 4G General] eljean:
Maybe but it will be hard because Verizon Droid have no MEID. And I have not been able to find a driver anytime. But everything is possible though u just have to keep looking.

For Verizon phones leave Active User as #1

I sent you a pm with instructions to change your esn/meid. Its a much easier method than scanning esn/meid locations

www.ting.com

Hi,

Sorry this is off topic, I have a Rooted Evo 4g and and interested switching from Spring to http://www.ting.com.

Others have done it, but I cannot find any instructions for an Evo.

Basically, I would buy a Ting phone and swap the ESN from the Ting (donor) phone to my Evo 4g.

Sounds link the same thing that is going on here.

I am I on the right track?

Thanks!
[EVO 4G General] ViciousxGaruda:
I heard this work for Motorola Droid X will this also work for Motorola Droid X2?
[EVO 4G General] alnova1:
I have flashed phones to Boost and Straight Talk and I'm not a pro by any means but I have heard Moto's are a pain because they are not as easy to access info through the programs needed to convert to Boost. Just what I have heard...
[EVO 4G General] kolosus:
Yes. True. Only thing is that getting your ha and aaa passwords are going to be complicated due to your donor not wanting to give it up. To date I've only had luck getting two phones give up the ha and aaa passwords.

The incognito/rant and the Prevail. Every other phone guards them well. If you know how to pull them from one of ting's phones then you should be fine.

Personally. I can swap out the esn and get voice working. Not an issue. Getting data/3g working is another story. I might but then again I might not. Good luck in your pursuit. It's definitely a possibility.
[EVO 4G General] ViciousxGaruda:
I went on craiglist and I email this guy and he say Moto can't never be flashed. I guess he can't do it because it hard for him?
[EVO 4G General] ViciousxGaruda:

boost speed

I just had mine flashed I live in the philly area and inside buildings i get 1mbps download about range is from 450 kbps to 1.5mbps and outside i get from 1 mbps to almost 3.2 mbps in some areas which that is sweet since that is the low end speeds that ppl get with 4g wimax. I had sprint before with the same evo that I have now that is flashed to boost now and then with the latest wimax firmware i was getting 3.5-13 mbps cant wait till boost starts using wimax 4g service through sprint since sprint is going to lte 4g as primary and 4g wimax and 3g evdo rev.a as backups. ive read that by the end of may 2012 boost will have wimax im hoping that someone will be able to figure out how us evo guys can tap in to the service with out having to have the actually boost evo.
[EVO 4G General] dongatta:
Hey guys I have a strange situation that I need some help on. I have an evo 4g on boost mobile. It has been active for about 6 months now with no problems. The other day my phone just went dead. No warning about battery or nothing. Turned back on and a message about plugging into AC charger came up. I have never seen this before. Plugged up phone tried to use and would get an error saying unable to authenticate client. Strange enough I can use the data but no text or voice. I have full signal bars 3g icon and everything. I have tried update prl and profile. My donor phone has not been turned on and the battery removed. I also tried factory reset. I want to try ##786# but afraid it may wipe my flash. Can anyone point me in the rite direction
[EVO 4G General] gellybelly:
Just may need to flash again. I had something similar happen to me, but was with the 3g just went off one day, about 3 months into it, never to return again, clueless as to why, never figured it out, about 2 months later after unable to get a hold of the original person who flashed it, I flashed it myself (after learning of course). Though had to change handset (donor), and then come back to original donor, worked out fine after that.
[EVO 4G General] dongatta:
Thanks I was thinking that may be the case
[EVO 4G General] eljean:
It cannot in most areas. For example NYC. I tried flashing my Dad's Evo 4G to Metro using a Huwei Ascend, and it would only roam for signal (metro can't roam so it did not work) and when I turned off roaming I would have no signal bars.

For Metro u need to Metroflash (they do this to get the ESN in their system cost about $40 in any MetroPCS store that can do it) it then do everything else.
[EVO 4G General] dongatta:
Just an update. I deactivated my donor for my evo on boost and removed batteries from both phones. Activated a different boost phone for a but. Reactivated the evo now everything works as normal.
[EVO 4G General] alnova1:
Well if he can it would be the first moto I have seen on Boost or Straight Talk. I'm not saying it can't be done but I just haven't seen it.
[EVO 4G General] Tedthetank386:
It wont read the sanyo drivers on windows 7 either. what i did was used vmware workstation and made a virtual windows xp os. I did all the donor phone steps in my workstation, saved all the files in a folder on my sd card, then continued the process on my windows 7 when i was done with the donor
[EVO 4G General] armeN0317:
4g

Any word on if we will be able to get 4g working since boost will have 4g at the end of the month? I really don't want to give up my evo for the design if we can get 4g working.
[EVO 4G General] 9h0s7:
You would need the information from a 4G enabled donor device (Evo Design) to get 4G on the OG Evo just like getting 3G on it.
[EVO 4G General] rigel1326:
I am stuck on the reading 1192 and 1194. Help
[EVO 4G General] rigel1326:
Just a quick update. Was able to get drivers installed in Win 7 as well as XP. I can connect in 7 and tested by saving the 466 file first time write. Unfortunately, the phone acts the same in both system when I try to read from address 1192 or 1196 and I fail with no read from phone. It gives 'Weird process is stopped. Phone does not answer.' Plus I think when you read that address it resets the phone.

I remember reading somewhere that those two don't save data but I just can't get past this point.
[EVO 4G General] inflewence:
Does it matter what phone you use as a doner or do you have to use the phones in the guide?
[EVO 4G General] dongatta:
Works best if u use the incognito. That way you are sure to get 3g service on the EVO.
