I'm sorry, you are correct actually, my apologies! Yes unless you do the important step first, it will try to activate on Sprint instead of Boost. Next time I better read a little farther back to be sure I know which part we are talking about. :)

I cant get in it either... yet...

The only way I know of using that particular ST phone is to also have an old verizon phone handy (I had a samsung moment that would have worked perfect for this) You kind of use it as a go between, you can not read info in the ST phone but I know for sure you can on the moment that I used for an example.

Dont quote me on this part, but I read somewhere ST only sends the programming info OTA only once so you need an unactivated ST phone in order to get the needed info. If this sounds confusing PM me and hopefully I will be able to send you in the right direction.

Yes, CDMA 3.8.5 is alot easier. It take a whole 5 mins or so to do it all. Still getting used to using it personally though. Definitely worth the cost if you will use it more than once!
[EVO 4G General] kalehua4791:
thanks for that info.....

i have been trying for 3 days now to pull any kind of information and have come to the conclusion on straight talk they only ota once so i have an lg 220c just sitting around and thought about factory resetting it....

then calling them to be ota again....to be able to maybe work it that way.....i doubt it will work that way but i dont have anything to lose......

k
[EVO 4G General] jerebediah:
I am a him lol

Ok I have tried both now as you both have stated and this is what i get... when I make a call I get " Your account could not be validated contact customer support" after a few seconds I get "message 5 switch 369" then it automatically hangs up the phone call... Also would like to add the profile update, prl update does nothing. Just says there are no updates. Thank you for you help!

Adding after I write the profile 0 and 1 it doesnt ask me to activate anymore with ota on reboot. Would just like to add that in...
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
hmmmm... Never got that error personally. You know your MSL correct? Push ##123456# (123456 is your msl) and see if your phone number (MDN) and MSID matches the boost info. Off the top of my head I would guess maybe one of those are wrong. If that is not it, PM me and I will try and go over everything with you if you would like. For the voice and texting to work you only need the MDN, MSID, and the other thing I wont mention, to match on your Evo basically since Boost and Sprint are on the same towers most of the other info should already be there.
[EVO 4G General] New Optimus:
That sounds like the MEID match is wrong.

check the donor phone and be sure both the hex meid and (p)esn match.
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
After getting a PM from him with more info, I am positive it is related to that too
[EVO 4G General] bsap0941:
can someone help me im using the samsung prevail need some direction thanks
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
I probably can, what exactly do you need? If you are wanting the HA and AAA keys it is not at all easy to get them compared to the incognito or others like it. You do not get the info through CDMA or QPST FYI. I can probably point you in the right direction though :)
[EVO 4G General] New Optimus:
I used my prevail but found that my evo would answer itself after one ring.

could not get that sorted out so I just reused the incognito.

anyone else ever find that?
[EVO 4G General] bsap0941:
yeah thats what i need got everything else so far
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
first you want to root your prevail... google works great for this also check http://androidforums.com

next step you want to download a android terminal... free on android market!

now go to android terminal and type

su

getprop ril.MSL

your 6# spc then should pop up

now to get nv items go back to your android terminal

su

dd if=/dev/stl5 of=/sdcard/cdma.rfs

then plug ur phone to computer with usb, turn storage space and copy the cdma.rds file off sd to desktop and use the magic iso

to extract to destop open the cdma.rf file you extracted and go to NVM folder then open the NUM folder and copy the

465, 465_1, 466, 466_1, 1192, 1194 files there the ones that you need...

ha and aaa pass are stored in the nv items, you need to use a hex editor to veiw the nv item you want

Try this, it should give you what you need.

***If I have helped please do not forget to hit my thanks button!***
[EVO 4G General] bsap0941:
do you write all those onto the evo :confused: thanks
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
I dont write any of the NV items personally, but the HA key is always the same for both profiles of course then the AAA keys will be in those files. The 32 digit AAA will start after the "10" on the second line in the 466 file and the 12 digit AAA can be found in the 466_1 file on the second line too. You can always open the cdma.rfs file with Winhex and manually search the dump, the keys arent too far down from the top of the file. It should be in the same place for all Prevails I would think so if you want to go the Winhex route I can probably tell you exactly where to look to find them

Hope this helps!!!
[EVO 4G General] jerebediah:
Klown80 is legit. Knows what he is doing! Thanks for the help!
[EVO 4G General] bsap0941:
yeah i could use the help and thanks for your quick responses

:D
[EVO 4G General] bsap0941:
Ok phone will not let me do anything put in spc number but it wont do anything cdma says its wrong put in the 16 digit passcode to get it and nothing appears what do i do now help
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
Can you be more specific please? Which phone? If you are meaning the Prevail, I already told you you do not get the info from CDMA WS so there is no need to try and connect it to CDMA WS. I gave you the instructions a few posts back on how to get the Prevails AAA keys. :)
[EVO 4G General] bsap0941:
Sorry I meant the evo had everuthing set evo reset then I did everthing the post.said and everythong matched but nothing worked then I restarted the evo and now it has myhone number as 0000007331 no username and the msl code does not work tried to put the evo back on cdma its said unlock code correct bit the spc block had nothing in it so im stuck
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
Do you remember what the original MSL was? I am assuming you changed it to 000000? If so when you ##786# reset it, for some reason it reset the MSL from 000000 back to the original. If you do not remember it it is pretty easy to get as long as you are rooted, just connect to wifi (hope you have wifi where you are!) and download MSL reader. Did you let it try to OTA activate after resetting it? That should have programmed your phone number and MSID. You can still manually program those to by pressing ##123456# (123456 is your MSL) if you know them already. Do you have teamveiwer? If so, I would be happy to connect to your computer and help figure out what you are doing wrong. Just helped a friend on here do the same thing last night! lol :D

Market Issues

Just in case anyone else has this issue:

I don't think I had problems on the Inc I flashed to boost, but I had problems with the market, and the google login in general, getting connection failed and server error, when I flashed an EVO, and an EVO 3D. I figured out from a CM6 thread, that on 2.1 and higher, the market now checks for your phone's MEID. The directions say you don't have to do ESN *AND* MEID, so I flashed all 3 phones with JUST the ESN. If you don't flash the donor's MEID, it isn't going to let you get onto the market. This is absolutely fine if you never flash a new rom after flashing. Just wanted to let people know!
[EVO 4G General] tghtaclegend:
Im still working on this but would it be a problem if my baseband is 2.15.00.12.19? I cant downgrade either. Tried RUU and says that I need the correct rom.
[EVO 4G General] bsap0941:
ok so im about to say f!@k it i get everything in the evo everything matches starts to do hands free activation then i get error 1233 and it resests my msl number and makes my phone number 000-000-0771 I am so frustrated and yes my prevail is rooted and so is the evo :mad:

CAN AYONE HELP ME OUT PLEASE BEN TRYING FOR THREE DAYS WHAT AM I DOING WRONG ???
[EVO 4G General] bsap0941:
well after about 4 days finally got it figured out had to update the prl through qpst then i got the dreaded error 16 transfer me to sprint the did a service reset now everything is working woohooo thanks to KLown 80 for setting me up with the where to find the AAA keys through win hex thanks buddy :victory:
[EVO 4G General] tghtaclegend:
frustrated

ahhhhhhh Im so frustrated. I've done almost everything and since I'm on baseband 2.15.00.12.19 and it wont let me downgrade using RUU to 2.15.00.11.19 so I can easily do this. I have to manually find all the locations for the MEID and ESN and Im totally confused.........btw I'm on step round 8 I guess. Or does anyone have a text file with these locations? Thanks and any help is much appreciated.
[EVO 4G General] 9h0s7:
I would scan, different basebands have different locations and some rotate or ghost if you prefer.
[EVO 4G General] Pokeemonn:
I am curious, when it says zero out all ESN and MEID numbers does this mean only as a whole string of numbers or does it mean partial strings as well?

I have been at this for a week, everything else went smooth. Any help would be appreciated. I can find some but I guess not all of the ESN/MEID numbers

Also I am on the right radio but will being on Swagged Out Stock Rom have any effect on it?
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
No need to scan baseband memory addresses, use the Evo 3D method. It is WAY easier to and much faster than scanning. Plus this method does not matter which baseband you are on.

*** If I have manged to help, please take a moment to hit my thanks button!!***
[EVO 4G General] Pokeemonn:
Just curious which files I search for since I am not using an Evo 3D. I don't have File 0 and 1943, any idea which files I should be searching for? Thanks
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
Which phone do you have if I may ask? If it is an OG Evo, Evo 3D, or Shift it should have those files. Do you have teamveiwer? I can help you if you need it.
[EVO 4G General] Pokeemonn:
I have a Sprint Evo 4G, looking in the NVM folder I do not see a 0 or 1943 at all, also I don't know if this is a problem but I am on myn's warm2.2. I can't get the Sprint RUU to install properly. Keeps saying to connect my device meanwhile every other program recognizes it and I have no problems else where. The radio is 2.15.00.11.19
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
Inside the NVM folder there should be a NUM folder, the files you are looking for are inside of the NUM folder...
[EVO 4G General] Pokeemonn:
I am aware of that, no files 0 or 1943 in either folder.
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
Sorry can't help you there, I have a friend that had an evo shift that he couldn't find the files on that phone either so he got a different phone, we never figured out what was wrong
[EVO 4G General] Pokeemonn:
hmmm, well thanks for the idea. I can find most of the MEID/ESN using QXDM but I am having some trouble converting the addresses I found in WinHex to the address I can use in QXDM

Scanning memory for readable areas:

Unreadable area from: 0000:0000

Readable area from: 00FA:0000

Unreadable area from: 00FF:0000

Readable area from: 0109:0000

Unreadable area from: 01DA:0000

Process is stopped at: 0EC1:0000

Using a hex calculator I have been doing FA0000 + the 4 characters in WinHex, but it doesn't seem right. I am new to all this so I am trying my best here, I even tried different ways to calculate them

idk if this will help anyone else but this is what I got from scanning memory starting at 0109:0000

00737E70 col 0

00860140 col c

00CB7E20 col c

0074EE20 col 0

007FB650 col c

00568D40 col 8

007379B0 col c

If anyone an add these up and repost the address to use in QXDM that would be dope!
[EVO 4G General] ghanafirst:
You doing too much use Dfs tools it will read all you looking for very easy and fast
[EVO 4G General] Pokeemonn:
Can you please elaborate? Or send me a PM or something, not sure how I would look for it using DFS Tools.
[EVO 4G General] eljean:
If its any help, you guys can Google MEID and ESN locations most of the time a lot of them work. Thats one way I got my locations... And just Google qxdm commands to change MEID.

Sorry I cant help much but im on thin ice with the mods because of this thread
[EVO 4G General] ghanafirst:
1. connect your phone to your PC open DFS click ports and select the port of your phone.

2. Enter your spc and send it to your phone

3. click Programming for your esn and meid read it from the General tab and for you aaa and ha keys read it from the Mobile IP tab. good luck :fingers-crossed:
[EVO 4G General] Pokeemonn:
I do that and the ESN stays the same, something I am doing wrong? I followed a video tutorial as well. I am using the free version if that matters.
[EVO 4G General] ghanafirst:
I read some where in the thread you missing file 0 and file 1943. am at work at the moment but send me a PM I'll hook you with both files and a step by step on what to do with it

Flashed to metro?

Hello, just a few questions. I have a few EVOs that I am planning to flash to Boost. My questions are;

(1) One EVO is already flashed to Metro, is the process the same to flash to Boost or do I have to go back to stock?

(2) All of my EVOs are rooted s-off, and radio is 2.15.00.12.19. Does that matter?

Thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
1) not sure about metro but I assume doing a hard reset will restore most of the default sprint network settings. You may have to write a boost or sprint PRL if the reset doesn't restore that too. The rom does not matter as long as the rom lets you use the ## codes. (most sense roms have it) Message me if you get stuck and i will be happy to assist.

2) depending on which method you use it doesn't matter. If you are planning on scanning basebands, trust me when I say there is a much easier method!

Hope this helps!

Which phone to get

Another question, which phone should I get for 3g. The Samsung Factor Or the Sanyo Innuendo?

Thanks again

Nevermind about the Factor. I just read the specs, and it is not a 3g phone.
[EVO 4G General] kalehua4791:
we actually dont use any of them

we use either the sanyo incognito or the samsung rant like the guide says.....i am actually busy doing 4 of them right now just got on here to check on something and saw this...but you can hit up klown80 and he is very good at helping just have to pm him and he will get back to you.......

LG Marquee and one more ?

Hey guys, thanks for all of the time and work that has gone into this guide, I have a couple of questions. I had a guy on craigslist flash both and Evo 3D and an LG Marquee to Boost for me, 2 separate accounts. Long story short is they don't work, the Marquee would give me error 67 and would only work with voice/text. The 3D I took it off to switch it to another account and it wouldn't add.

1. So I decided to take matters into my own hands and do it myself. Is there a guide for the Marquee? I guess I could just try it with most of the info in this guide but if someone knows offhand of another link let me know, I searched the site and didn't find anything.

2. I have one Boost Incog coming in I bought off ebay so I could get the info for the flash but how are these guys on craigslist doing it for $50? I checked both MEIDs on the 2 phones my guy flashed and they are different so he got MEIDs from somewhere. Any leads on where to get donors/(info from donor phones) for sale for cheaper than $30+? PM me if you know about that... A guy on ebay is selling donor phones (with the necessary flash info emailed to you) for $49 but that's pretty steep... How are these guys doing it for $50??

flashing

someone please help me i have searched and searched but i still cant find a way to flash htc evo 4g to boost mobile im not computer swavey but simple instructions i can follow or even send the phone to some one to flash it for me help

thanks
[EVO 4G General] JT man:
Check your pm...
[EVO 4G General] kalehua4791:
Make sure to check now

make sure if you send it to someone instead of doing it yourself.....that they know what they are doing......i actually get about 3 or 4 a week from people who send it out to someone only to have me flash it to fix either their internet or sometimes the phone and text.....

So in short make sure they know how or just learn it yourself......its not that hard as all the information is right here on the website....

A little time invested saves alot of headache....AND MONEY LOL

The marquee is already a boost phone what exactly do you mean
[EVO 4G General] JT man:
Sprint has a LG marquee too buddy...
[EVO 4G General] New Optimus:
Ah I did not know that thank you.

To answer the question error 67 means the data profile is not correct for the system sometimes you can correct it by doing a data profile update.

Other times you have to recheck the HA and AAA keys. If they are wrong it wont update.

I NEED HELP!!! Ok I have flashed 2 evo 4gs to boost before so I am familiar with the process and recently I bought an evo 3D, I followed the 3d guide step by step, but when I get to setting profile 0 as active user the phone begins to reboot an I get a message from the QPTS “the mobile reported the following errors while writing NV items:

NV ITEM:

NV_EU_IMEI_I

STATUS:

NV_READONLY_S

I get no voice, (it tells me that if I want to make a collect call blah blah ect.) But when I read from the phone again everything is in place but the active user won’t stay as “0” it keeps moving to “1”. Other thing I noticed is that the guide for the 3d never indicated me to rewrite the NV and NAMS items using CDMA and the phone used to be partially flashed to cricket. PLEASE HELP ME!! :(

[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
That is a simple fix, do you have another unactivated boost handset handy? If so log into your Boost acct and go to "Update Handset" put in the number from the unactivated phone, and then hit ok, once that phone is on your account just hit update handset again and put in the number from your donor, once complete the error 16 will be gone (Listen to the whole message about not authenticated, at the very end it says 16 or 16 slash or dash or somethig right?)

[EVO 4G General] Luro:
I have a question about other uses for this method -

I am one of the lucky ones to still be using the SERO 500 plan, but I am not allowed to get a new subsidized phone since they will not renew my contract. In response to this I have bought my phones and activated them, Moto Q9c to Hero and now to Evo. I shouldn't have been too surprised to find out that they now refuse to activate the evo on my account without getting a whole new plan. I expected to pay another $10 for the premium data, just like they charged me another $10 to get the hero from my Q9c.

This of course brought me here to get my new evo running on boost, but it looks like some people are using phones with this method on sprint's network too. Would I be able to turn my Hero into a donor for the evo 4g and use my evo on my old plan? My limited understanding of what I have read here tells me that the method passes the network identifiers to a different phone. Any input on this would be great.

Thanks,

Dave
[EVO 4G General] JimmyDBlock:
Is it me or has anyone else has had their call go directly to a boost mobile representtative and they verify that your phone is in fact what's on their computer screen.

They ask the following..and want an answer!!! Mean..

Tele number

Model

Maker, sanyo etc

When you activated it....WHEN YOU ACTIVATED IT ., THE EXACT MONTH!!!

Feedback please is appreciated. She said they are terminating services to replicated devices.

(If so..iphone boost/virgin mobile!? =>)
[EVO 4G General] dongatta:
No big deal just answer nicely. Make sure u give them the make model and esn of the donor phone on file. They will tell u that your phone needs an update. Make sure you have another number they can call u on so they can call ur boost phone to verify it works. IM paying 35 a month just happened to me a couple months ago. Remember do not say it's an evo or epic touch. That's what they are cracking down on
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
It should work the same regardless of whether you want the phone on Sprint, Boost, Virgin, or ST. The process is the same.
