Thanks, yeah, I make sure thats one of the first things I do before or after I reboot. I usually see the sprint mms url, but this it said "not set" in brackets. I still put it in, so theres probably something else. Im going to reset to get my old prl and reflash to see if I get the same problem. Ill update with outcome.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JUSMEJOSE:
Dont reset the phone that causes problems with stock MMS app ...next time just update the profile/prl using the WiFi

Follow this guide and your problem will be solved...

I have a stock s4 from US Cell that I just got today. I have flashed a few s3's to boost and was told it was the same process. After hours of research and a few lines in command prompt I was able to get into DM mode and was able to have workshop (cracked addition) and DFS free to be able to read and write. I know my SPC and have the correct password.

I was able to successfully fix the ESN of the S4 and then I tried to write the NV item 465 and 466 it said 0 files where written successfully. When I tried to put in the info for the data nothing seems to stick in DFS including the PRL so I am kind of at a loss.

Anyone please let me know what I am doing wrong so that I can get this s4 up and running on boost?

Using ZTE Warp...Stuck

Read 83 pages. Lots of info. I appreciate it!! unfortunately, i'm still stuck. :crying:

I am a current Boost customer. Bought a Sprint S3 (bad ESN). Cloned most of my info (I got my MEID, PRL, MIN and ESN on the S3). But no service. Using WiFi, OTA activation fails. PRL and profile updated though. Not sure what i'm missing, but it may be the AAA and HA items. Using DFS 4.6.5.1. How do I go about reading them? Help is appreciated, thanks!!

Just to confirm, 1. Warp isn't 4G, so I shouldn't expect 4G, right? 2. My brother, on Boost, has an active S2. will it be easier to flash?

USC R-530U to Boost

I know thats right! This is my first flash..... I been reasearching this for two months! Just spent 12 hours reading 83 pages of posts. Whatched as user after user posted questions that were already answered for them again ana again throughout the thread! All of the senior members and a lot of the junior members were such a phenominal help that with all the notes I've taken and advise stored and knowledge I've witnessed I would feel totaly comfortable flashing any variant of the SGSIII.

Sorry for the rant. Been waiting 12 hours to say something to make SURE I had all prior info. And special thanks to the other two R-530U users for your input. I will let you all know how it went when I put my PC back together.

Now heres the skinny on Boost Mobile as I understand it: upon learning that boost had their own varient of the SGSIII I called boost to see if I could just do a handset swap, since sprint bought them too. Of course the system didn't recognize the IMEI. I then spoke with a rep and asked him straight up....well, mabey kind of crooked, what if I got the unlock code from USC and unlocked it? He said they would do the swap no problem but any software conflicts would be on me as well as any issues with mms or voicemail.

My only two questions are: is my SPH-M830 Samsung Galaxy Rush a suitable donor? And (this may be silly)would it help anything if I inserted my old iden sim card (already trimed to fit lol)?

What Android version did you have did you need to downgrade?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] retailguy:
Need some help. My siii has been working flawlessly except for the voicemail notifier. I bought "a better voicemail notifier" two years ago when I first flashed the phone and it worked just fine. Recently, however, I'm getting bogus notifications, sometimes the notifier icon won't dismiss, and sometimes it won't tell me that messages are waiting.

I've never upgraded the OS, running 4.0.4 stock, but am rooted. I do not want to run anything but the stock rom, so within that constraint, what options do I have to get a correctly working voicemail notifier?

thanks for your help.

Radio turns on/off contiunously

Ok first off Ill try to keep this short and sweet. I have qxdm, qpst, cdmaws 2.7, and dfs. I have all my boost and sprint ha and aaa keys. I was able to get 3g working, and was able to make 1 phone call, then no more voice or texting, when calling it would redirect me to the "You have reached your wireless service provider message"

Ive tried to fix the voice problem to no avail and in doing so seemed to have messed up the radio. The problem started after using the nv item 465, 466, 1192, and 1194 method (which Ive read in the thread that I didnt need to do) 465 and 1194 nv items are ok, however 466 and 1192 nv items show access denied on the siii. All items are ok in the incognito nv items. Im thinking this is my problem, Ive unlocked the phone both by spc and manufacturer password 01F2030F5F678FF9 before writing nv items, got nothin, 465 and 466 both access denied

Radio goes in and out in a known good service area. If I pull the top bar down and look at the mobile data and airplane mode buttons the flip flop back and fourth between being on/off, dont know why that is. I have odined back to 4.1.1 stock, factory reset, yada yada yada.... no fix. Cant even get the 3g back, or any kind of service.

Any help would be awesome, spent many hours reading and trying new methods with no gain. :(

Trial period has eneded :( I did more reading and I guess 466 and 1192 nv items always come back access denied on the siii, so I guess no problem there. Still radio goes in and out, phone will also restart randomly, port opens closes randomly, airplane mode flashes on pull down dock. Still no 3g, preparing network goes up once and stays there. Sometimes if I enable then disable airplane mode the hands free activation comes up, updates the prl, restarts, says activation complete, still the same problem afterwards. Then I can do the airplane mode trick again and the loop starts all over again. Im stumped... Also my mdn and mis get messed up after hands free activation.

EDIT: SOLVED! Radio problem was fixed by pulling the battery and restart, back to square one with getting everything besides 3g working. :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Carfanatic:
If you use DFS you can read AAA and HA right from the incognito no need to read NV items of any kind and its totally free. Though really you shouldn't need to write those to begin with.

In your case it may help though read everything from the Incog and then write them to the SIII using DFS should be set from there.

Then to get voicemail working use titanium backup and remove voicemail t.(version number) and then your set except mms.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] warnereg:
Turns out my only problem was error 16

Error 16 is the verdict, if you get a message saying "You have reached your wireless service provider" you have the error 16 problem. Talk to the sprint rep, they will say you have error 16 on your account, they will ask you a bunch nonsense questions (like I'm supposed to have an idea what happened, even tho I have a pretty good one) tell them you have no idea what happened and that your not a cell phone tech. After that they say to pull your battery for 3 minutes while they reset your account. I did this and my nightmare of having a 150 dollar brick was over, phone works, 3g works, still need to fix mms... however I'm stoked!

Also if you have the airplane mode problem, no bars, or bars that go in and out download service mode shortcut app, select servicemode > UMTS > Common > NV Rebuild > NV Rebuild > Reboot. Problem solved. Great thread! VERY HELPFUL!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RomsWell:
Error 16 is a security flag. It means your account flagged a clone. Do a esn change and then switch it back. And never turn your doner on again. Error 16 means your flash is correct.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] warnereg:
Got everything working but 3g, still stuck 1xrtt:6. I followed alpinemans instructions to the t for the dfs fixes. Ive read all info under the data tab, wrote the required info, in m.ip tab I enabled profile 0, clicked write, entered the nai, aaa, an and ha keys. Even tried the word "secret" as the ha key not written in hex, tried the real ha written in hex. Did the hands free activation, no luck. Updated profile and prl over wifi, no luck. Tried everything that ive come across with no luck, my donor is the incognito which I know is 3g capable. No idea what I may be doing wrong, thinking I have some wrong settings ticked somewhere. Thanks in advance!

Also is there a difference between updating profile and prl ota compared to wifi? Does dfs always fail to read the hdr long pwd as well as prof 0 and prof 1 aaa and ha keys? Seem to be writing ok but they never call back upon read.

Updating profile

Hi,

Was hoping someone could answer a question regarding updating profile and psl(?)? I have a Sprint S3 flashed to Boost. I was interested in flashing custom rom and after checking in on several forums I found out I could use sprint roms. I flashed Wicked Sensation a couple of weeks ago and all went well. Prior to this my 3g connection was not the greatest and has continued that way after custom rom. Someone in another forum suggested updating profile and psl. He was pretty sure it would go to the Boost server for update but wasn't 100% because he doesn't have his Sprint S3 on Boost. Can anyone confirm that it if I do this that it will go to Boost server for update? Would really like to try to see if I can get a (pardon the pun) boost to my 3g but don't want to mess anything up? Also, should I do nandroid prior just in case something happens? Wasn't sure if this was the type of issue it would fix if there was a problem. Or maybe nothing would happen at all if it didn't work?

Appreciate any assistance!

Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Sofocused504:
Andee.. yes you can update the profile and prl without loosing any flash information I use to do it once or twice a month and all was fine
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] andee39:
Thanks so much for responding! Silly question - once you do it is there some notification that something has updated or do you just have to see if there is a difference with 3g? I'm just wondering if I'm going to see something right away. :cool:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Sofocused504:
Umm you can download speedtest app and test your download and upload speed amd also you can note your .prl before updating an proper boost .prl is 600010 or something of that nature

Picture messaging not working after new ROM flash

Hello guys,

I finally got the nerve up to flash a new ROM onto my Samsung Galaxy S3 that is flashed to Boost Mobile! It literally took me weeks of pondering it before I made the jump! I flashed the Wicked Sensations 4.xx, and everything seems to have worked fine, except now I can't send pictures in text messages anymore! I checked the mmsc url, which was blank, so I put in the proper address (which won't let me post here because I'm new) and thought for sure that would solve my problem! Nope.... didn't work! I checked the mmsc proxy, and it was blank, so I put in "68.28.31.7" (copied from my daughters phone....same thing....S3 flashed to Boost), and I put "80" in the mmsc proxy port (also copied from my daughters phone). Nothing worked so far. I also noticed that at the top of the screen where it used to say "3G".....it now says "1x"! Could that be the problem? Somebody on this site mentioned that I may need to "re-provision the data on my carrier" because it looks like I am not getting the high speed data. Does anyone know how I do that? Please spell it out in "computer illiterate" terms! Someone please help! I am thoroughly confused, and I need to be able to send pictures in text messages once again! Thanks for any help you can offer!

Copasta

P.S. I downloaded Speedtest app as stated earlier in this thread, and ran the test on my phone. My phone pinged at 629ms, download speed was 94kbps, and upload was 194kbps.....if that is helpful to anyone. My current PRL is 61010, which states it is in "Washington, DC"....I am in Pennsylvania about 2.5 hours away from DC! Shouldn't I have a closer tower to connect to?

Followed this to the t and bought the apps necessary from the play store, works great. No additional mms app needed, I had to buy root explorer and super su pro for everything to work properly.

My wife's phone is a Sprint GS3 flashed for Boost. Recently she's notified me of issues she has partaking in group text conversations. She's on stock JB and I have been afraid to mess with flashing a different ROM on her phone.

Anyone know if there's a way to get group messaging working on Sprint stock 4.1?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JUSMEJOSE:
Flashing others sprint TW ROMs won't messed your flash ... the only thing that you would have to check is your MMS settings ...

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] spearoid:
I don't know enough about group messaging. She is able send MMS fine. She gets group texts fine too. But she can't respond to the group, only an individual.

I was thinking that's just a shortcoming of this stock Sprint ROM. But I have no idea. I didn't see any settings in the app that would seem to help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] retailguy:
I don't believe that Sprint has that functionality natively. This thread seems to back that up.

http://community.sprint.com/baw/message/605640

However, I will tell you that my 15 year old group texts all the time using a free third party app. I know it's free because she uses my gmail account on her phone, and I have no paid apps from her. She is on boost and uses the HTC Design Evo that I bought her last Christmas.

So, I know group text is possible on Boost but I don't know the app. I can ask her if you're interested.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] AlpineMan:
My Sprint Note 2 can send/receive group text just fine. I'm using a custom ROM (Touchwiz based). I won't be surprised if there's such a ROM for the GS3, too... Or perhaps you can just install the stock messaging app modded to allow group texting.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] spearoid:
I haven't browsed this Sprint forum much. I didn't know there was a modified stock MMS app for group messaging. That sounds promising. I can't imagine Sprint GS3 owners are truly out of luck with group texting, unless they go 3rd party, but maybe so.

I am following the steps in this thread to try to get 3g working on my Samsung Galaxy S3 that I just updated to Wicked Sensations 4. I am not that good at this, a novice to say the least, and you guys are life savers when it comes to phone flashing / rooting / etc. I was wondering about the process you have listed, specifically the "32 digit HEX AAA password"! Where do I find that information? Should that be listed in DFS somewhere when I have the phone connected? I can't find anything that is 32 digits long! My HDN AN setting does not have the pwd checked, but there is a 6 letter password listed. When I check the "pwd", a 12 digit password pops up there! I'm not sure if I should check that, leave it unchecked, enter something else, etc.? I don't want to brick the phone or anything (LOL)! Same thing with HDR AN Long......nothing is checked there, and I don't think anything pops up when I check that, but I may be the same as above....just can't remember at the moment! Also, just to be clear, the HEX AAA password that we are looking for, if it is on the phone somewhere, should come from the DONOR phone, correct? Sorry for all the questions, but as I stated earlier, I'm just learning this, and don't want to mess my phone up! Thanks for any information you can offer at this time! I truly appreciate your expertise and willingness to help out us newbies!!!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Carfanatic:
If you had 3g working before flashing a rom it shouldn't change. Only thing you would lose is MMS.(maybe 4g and other things if the rom didn't have support for them.

I haven't tried it myself but from others you don't need to put in the AAA or AA passwords at all.

You never listed your donor phone so can't say if you can get them using DFS or some other method.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Copasta:
Sorry for the late response.....was busy most of the weekend with a huge pig roast we were throwing! YUM!

Anyway, the donor phone is a Sanyo Incognito! So what you are saying is just skip the step with the AAA password (i.e. leave it as it is?), and do everything else, and it should work?

Thanks again for your help guys! It is greatly appreciated! :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Carfanatic:
I guess yes if you copy the other parts and then connect to wifi and do a profile update and the other updates then it should auto-fill the AAA and other passwords.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Copasta:
It didn't work! The log says something like "bad parameters" and something else about the AAA Password. I'm still on 1x, and I don't know what else to do. I'm at a loss.:confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Carfanatic:
As long as your on 32 bit windows and using DFS you can read all passwords directly from the incognito. You can't read them from the S3 but you can write them. So read on the Incognito and copy and paste directly to the S3 and then save/write and then you can transfer over the AAA and other passwords.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Copasta:
I didn't have any luck with that yet, but perhaps I'm just too tired tonight and not doing something correctly! I notice in the log that when I try to paste the password into it, the log changes to "offline", like its not reading the phone anymore! I don't know if there is another step I should be doing in there somewhere, but was following the steps to a tee! I'm going to be away from my computer for the next few days, so I will revisit this when I get back and hopefully I'll only have to suffer through 1X for a few more days! LOL! Thanks again for the help! I'm not done yet!!!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] AlpineMan:
You do not need to downgrade the entire phone (ROM and modem). You can just downgrade the modem itself... If you're already rooted, you can flash an older GS3 modem on your phone using TWRP (my favorite) or Clockworkmod. That should allow you to get your SPC/MSL using the Get My MSL app.
