Ok so I'm fully flashed and running on Boost with my 3d. Question is, could I still flash roms without it affecting my Boost settings?
[HTC EVO 3D] Will32:
I only know from what I've read but I think if you're just flashing Roms then you'll be ok, I might not update the radio and I probably wouldn't dial ##data# and choose to restore data profile. I hosed a wildfire s on virgin mobile beyond repair by doing that. From what I've read you need to NEVER lose the AAA key, you'll never get it back and be stuck in 1x. Have you made a backup in qpst?
[HTC EVO 3D] jslim38:
If do flash a Rom you may have to manually set up your apn's so before flashing a Rom I would write down all my apn's first
[HTC EVO 3D] louforgiveno:
You can feel free to flash roms and kernels. When you flash a rom (sense based) you'll need to do a ##data# and go to

Advanced

then near the bottom to

MMS Server URL

and change it to "

http://mm.myboostmobile.com

" (without quotes), and that will be all.

No boost settings will be "messed" up by flashing roms/kernels.

Now for cm7, miui, etc AOSP/AOKP I think you'll need an app from the market to get MMS messages.

As one of the posters above me said, you should create a qpst backup just for good form, won't hurt & may help.

I have updated the radios before on my evo 4g and it doesn't effect the boost service one bit

So far I have not updated my 3d's radios. Haven't found a need to, but when I see "great" feedback on a radio update I'll def do it.

So flash away, Themes, Roms, Kernels etc.

Boost is Sprint, so there isn't much to configure just MMS and modded Phone.apk so you can get the native Sense Voicemail app to notify you of phone messages.
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
I have my 3d flashed to another carrier as well.......I changed ROMs/kernels , I also updated from 2.08 to 2.17 which updates your radios..... and everything is still working fine...... but when I used revolutionary to S-OFF ny phone , all settings went.back to that of sprint's. So I restored my backup , but calls text weren't working . So i had to called the guy who flashed it to another carrier and he gave me the A-key, which solved all the issues.
[HTC EVO 3D] louforgiveno:
Oh yeah..good point, rooting after flashing to new carrier will cause issues.

Root must be done prior to swapping carrier.
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
Revolutionary unlocks your NAND LOL, it does not root your phone , after that if you want you flash a zip containg superuser/supersu Apk and binary from recovery which will root your phone.

Without SU no root app will work even trough you have used revolutionary/htcdev
[HTC EVO 3D] louforgiveno:
O.k, point is do all that prior to switching carrier. :rolleyes:
[HTC EVO 3D] ghanafirst:
Great post, I updated my radio on my 3vo running MeanRom and my data speed has picked up tremendously.flashing Roms and kennel want hurt nothing.
[HTC EVO 3D] joefanelli:
Do you know which program was used to flash your phone? If the answer is QPST and QXDM (which are the qualcomm tools) then restoring after a botched flash is fairly simple with a backup just irritating lol. Always take special note of your MEID and ESN while its still flashed to boost. Oh and if possible (just because its the biggest pain to recover) have the flash programmer send you your AAA and HA keys from the donor phone, "AAA" being the most important. Those 4 items are the unique end of the flash pretty much so if you have them restoration is far easier should things mess up.

Hope this helps!
[HTC EVO 3D] banccalif:
You can flash any rom, kernel, radio, prl etc. I've done everything and have had no ill effects. The only time I ran into an issue was while downgrading hboot.. Lost my flash for a few hrs until I re flashes it to boost. And yes on asop roms u need gosms or an equivalent to receive MMS
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
You lost your flash to boost due to revolutionary not because of downgrading hboot.
[HTC EVO 3D] banccalif:
Notice I said "while".... Revolutionary is part of the process but to be specific I confer
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
It's "while achieving S-OFF" , not "while downgrading" ......you run revolutionary "after" your hboot is downgraded to 1.40.0000.

Then revolutionary will change your hboot to 1.40.1100

After about 20 min of 4G tethering with constant data transfer (USB or WiFi) phone breaks connectivity with the internet. Signal / IP stays up and active but 0 packets from either phone or pc transfer.

Disconnecting from 4G back to 3G lets data flow again.

Must reboot phone & reconnect to 4G in order to resume 4G data on either phone or pc.

Any one else experience this behavior? Is there a workaround?

This thread is serious....... PLEASE Expert opinions are welcome. I dont know much about unlocking and stuff, so please read.

I know this business of unlocking the SKR has been around for long.

BUT now there are folks on ebay, youtube, and other sites offering a USB method for unlocking th Skyrocket. Should buyers beware, or does anyone know if this is real?

Members yozh and BionicBeast have brought this before....but on searching google this business of USB UNLOCKING is out there. Are people being scammed?

examples:

http://www.fastgsm.com/en/page/how-to-unlock-samsung-i5700-spica-i5800-i5500-galaxy-3-5

http://www.youtube.co.id/watch?v=mH...DvjVQa1PpcFP61Cpp-L2yMG0La7fzZWij315zX043xRs=

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...ht_1158wt_1396

EDIT: I think in only one case it is a real unlock code recovery.....the others look like hacks??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dixit:
The first link you got there of the fastgsm one is real. I paid the $15 and unlocked the Tmobile Galaxy S2 which is almost identical to the Skyrocket.

It was done via the USB method. So it definitely works.

The second one is also real. It's another company that does it. I believe for about $17.

Dixit
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] chappatti:
Thanks, dixit. Great input. So it is doable.......now we just need to get one of our great xda folks on the job !!! ;)

Does this method actually find your unlock code that you can then enter, or is this a file hack? Can you provide further info on what happens at the unlock stage ?

I ask, because if this is a file hack like the famous Galaxy S unlocker, then one needs to worry about restoring the files etc. and warranty issues. If this an actual unlock code, then all is well .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dixit:
There is already one person that has been trying to see what they can do on this. That person has been running on it for awhile but due to some finals he is taking its on hold till first week of May. So Id hang tight to see if that person can get anywhere. Otherwise wait a few more months and I think these will drop in the $2 range for codes once these phones lose their exclusivity deals with their respective carriers.

Dixit
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] chappatti:
Sorry just updated my post.....can u pl reply?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dixit:
The USB method is not a temporary unlock, its permanent. What they are doing is finding the location that the unlock code is stored, and overwriting it with 8 zeros "00000000" and then when you are presented with the screen to unlock the phone with the unlock code, you enter 8 zeros and the phone is permanently unlocked. The code is stored on the phone, so all they are doing is changing the code, then letting you enter it in. Restoring wont affect it.

This is sort of what the other person is trying to figure out. They want to see what areas these folks are hitting on the phone and see if he can do the same without needing to pay for it from these companies. But like I said, its only matter of a few months or so till these phones lose their exclusivity with their carriers and then these codes will be widely available to unlockers and the price will drop to $1 like they are on 100s of phones on ebay. Right now its up there in price cause only ATT or Samsung can provide the code. Some say truly only Samsung can provide it cause if you call ATT they cant/wont even provide the unlock code.

Dixit
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] chappatti:
Thanks a lot.

So that's what the "00000000" is about. I was wondering about that step, since if they found the code, why 8 zero's...:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cschmitt:
Because replacing a known location where the unlock code is stored with an unlock code of 8 zero's is much easier then trying to decrypt the code already stored in the phone.

---------- Post added at 02:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:01 PM ----------

Dump the EFS partition to a file, then pay to unlock a phone via one of the USB unlockers, then dump the EFS partition a second time and do a binary compare. The lock code location and format will become very apparent in the compare.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] chappatti:
Geez....are you sure? Coz I'm ready to do the unlock.......but how the heck to I dump the efs?

EDIT: So the whole idea is to get the location???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cschmitt:
Getting the location is a start, from there it's determining the format. The code is probably encrypted or it might be stored as an MD5 hash of the unlock code.

It may be that the unlockers have figured out the encrypted hash for '00000000' and just overwrite the correct location in the partition with that value so that when you enter 8 zero's as the network unlock code it works.

99% of the EFS is just 0x00 and 0xFF so there's not that much 'real' data to compare, maybe 150 or 200KB.

Another option is to collect EFS partitions from several phones and compare them, the relevant information such as IMEI, BT and WiFi MAC, unlock code will be in the locations that these files differ.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] chappatti:
Thanks for the insight.

Ok, so if I unlock, then how to dump the efs...... I am going to rope you in for comparing efs and s$%t like that..LOL ! :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Saitou33:
This info might be dated, since it has been a while that I worked for AT&T, but to the best of my knowledge, they DO give out unlock codes as long as you say the following:

1. You need it for international travel.

2. The offer you an international plan, decline it. Say you want to use a local SIM card.

3. They will say they can only do it if they put international roaming on this line. It is a free feature, so say "yes".

4. They will generate and provide an unlock code free of charge.

5. Send me whatever money you were going to pay :p

During the years I worked there, I did this countless times for customers.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] chappatti:
Sorry, man, those days are gone. It is simply that Samsung still controls the database of the unlock codes for "famous"/top-end devices.

To prove this here is my chat with AT&T just 5 mins ago: :p

ATT: Thank you for completing the prechat survey. We can certainly check your device to see if can be unlocked for international travel. Can you please provide me the 15 digit IMEI number from the phone? You may obtain this number by entering *#06# on your phone.

Me: Sure....one min.

Me:

Brad Ritcey: Thank you. One moment.

ATT: Currently the device is not eligible to be unlocked. We have no set unlock date for the device at this time Mr.Subramaniam.

Me: So what is my option?

ATT: We do offer roaming plans while traveling for data,voice and text messages.

Me: That would be still more expensive.......

Me: Is there no unlock code at all for this device?

ATT: That is correct

Me: OK. Then I will buy a local to-go phone. Thanks !

I am never one to try any reasonable option....but this is the third time !!:p
