It gives me "Failed... Device does not answer" when I it send SPC or password. I've been sending 000000 as the SPC and tried 01F2030F5F678FF9 as the password though from what I understand it shouldn't need the password since its a Verizon phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
Stratosphere 2 is the same flash as the Verizon s3. If your getting device failed factory reset it that Will fix it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madmatt2024:
I did Setting>Backup and reset>Factory data reset, it still does give the error. I'm assuming that is the factory reset.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
Em is it showing more then one port?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madmatt2024:
Yes, when I click on the port button in CDMAWS it shows

COM1 - Communications Port

COM5 - SAMSUNG Mobile USB Serial Port

COM6 - SAMSUNG Mobile USB Modem

I use COM5 though I have tried COM6. Both connect but give the "Failed... Device does not answer" error when I try to do anything.

I don't know if it matters but the phone may have been rooted before my friend got it. When it first starts up on the black Samsung screen there is an unlocked padlock with the words "Custom" under it.

GS3 keeps trying to call out to activate on VZ LTE

I'm trying to help my brother out, so don't have the phone in front of me. Here is the gist. I'm sure we have a few things wrong.

Question 1 - Wifi on PP with HTV INC2. Can I just grab the keys and use these as the donor on GS3? She doesn't use data?

Question 2 - We thought LTE was disabled, but it wasn't and we turned on the phone with never use Verizon LTE sim in it, The took out of airplane mode and it called the Verzion activate line automatically.

We turned it off, and used DFS to turn of LTE. I think we have all the screens matching what Nevell and others showed.

Now it keeps randomly trying to use the dial string for LTE to activate the phone

Question 3 - I have page plus move the ESN back to txt phone, if I put New VZ sim (or TMobile) have PP do ESN swap. Would I at least have 1x data and not get nag for sim AND not have it call to actrivate randomly.

Lost...RazrMaxx was so easy to do by following directions. Can anyone point me in right direction
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
You have to use a SIM that was previously activated but you don't need a SIM for the gs3

Have you tried using different data cable? That's what happen to my Sprint S3, when I use OEM Samsung cable it works just fine but when I use the other one I have, it shows device does not answer. Weird but hopefully that works out for you.

Flashing sprint S3

I am trying to activate a Sprint Galaxy S3 on Page Plus with atleast 1x and voice. I have read and read and read for days now to no avail. After searching and searching on how to get my MSL, I finally set it to 6 0's, and that got me into the data screen. My problem is, I don't have the full version of CDMA WS. All I have is 2.7. I also have the free DFS and QPST. Is there a way to manually program these phones to work with 1x/voice on page plus? or is there no way around cdma ws? Please and thank you. Once again, thanks for your time and help. ~Matt

P.S. I am rooted, with a 4.1.2 OS but still have stock rom.

Also, if it matters, if I dial *228, it just tells me my device could not be authenticated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
If your getting that msg when you dial *228 then your meid is not active on P+ or you do not have a Verizon prl on your phone. You can put your data profile in the data menu under username. and for the ha.secret and aaa secret just put vzw that will get you 1x

Data keeps switching between 1X and 3g

I have a USCC S3 which someone helped to put the keys and get 3g data working. However it keeps switching between 3G, 1X and no data. I have a Galaxy Nexus that works perfect in the same house so the coverage is not an issue. Does anyone know how to get a steady 3g? I am baffled!

Hi, I used a clean esn verizon fascinate as my "friend" and activate it to page plus. ported my number from verizon prepaid to page plus. Everything went smoothly. my fascinate is activated. I can make calls and have 3g. But the phone i want to use is my sprint gs3. so i flashed it doing the same process as in flashing to verizon prepaid. Just used on the prl here on this thread for page plus. My issue is that on my sprint gs3 im getting the error "there was an error in processing your call" and i dial *611 and i get verizon wireless instead of page plus. What could i be doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you all
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] PJnc284:
You shouldn't need to have it flashed again if you port your current number to Selectel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
That happens when your meid is not on page plus, prl is not right, or you didn't switch the meid of your donor back to the original meid
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] juanto2804:
I see. Well I'm at work right now. I'm gonna take a look later when I get home. The meid is activated. The prl I used the one from my donor which is 53188. And I haven't changed the original back. If I can't figure it out could you help me out. Donating of course. Thank u for the reply
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
Nope I don't mind
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mkarps:
so is the 53188 prl the best to use with a sprint s3 on page plus? I get the roaming triangle but I do get the best speeds with that as opposed to the 59317 sprint one or whatever.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
I use 59335 on Sprint phones. Its a Straight Talk prl modified for Sprint phones.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] juanto2804:
Well just spent like half and hour back and forth changing things following your video thinking i didn't flash it right. But i still get the same message. "error in processing your call"

Let me know when your available to help me out. I really appreciated. Thank you

^ If nevell doesn't get back to you, I can pull the keys for you if needed. Have a Fascinate that I've used a couple times. Best $18 I've ever spent on ebay. :laugh:

Only used it once but it worked as intended to copy from Verizon Fascinate on my computer to a Verizon GS3 700 miles away. Ran across it and decided to try the demo on a whim. Overpriced at $149 since it isn't necessary though. It's another installation on both computers and requires port forwarding to be set up in the router on the server end and a license on the client end. Probably better options out there though if you NEED that functionality.

I wish I can help you, but I don't have Pageplus. I've been able to do the following:

Sprint and VZW GS3 to Sprint legacy plan like SERO. The method works for Sprint MVNO like Boost as well. I documented the steps for Sprint GS3 in the Sprint GS3 to Boost thread. I need some time to do the same for VZW GS3.

And yes, you can use either a bad/clean ESN Sprint/VZW GS3 on Sprint/Boost as long as your donor has a clean ESN (actually, clean MEID to be exact).

Hey does anyone know how to read the profiles in QPST?

under Start Clients menu i see:

RL editor

Service Programming

software download

and WLAN editor.

and i'm using build 366. and for some reason sometimes i'll be able to see the phone in the EFS popup window but usually i dont. i know its in good diag mode because i can get into and alter with DFS. i'm thinking its the build im using? what build QPST is everyone using?

but ya, how to edit the profiles (where the HA and AAA stuff is) in QPST?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] AlpineMan:
Go to Service Programming. Use the latest version...QPST v2.7 Build 378.

For those who've done this using VZW GS3, have you fixed MMS? I hate using Go SMS Pro as a workaround for the APN issue to get MMS working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
That is correct.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] zen_phones:
thanks alphine.

when trying to read info from sprint s3 in service programming i get:

"the phone has stopped responding to memory read/write commands" and times out

when i try to explore/write items to the EFS directory...i get...

the phone you have chosen does not support an embedded file system.

and...

this phone probably does not support this file subsystem. if no files are displayed, this is likely the reason

and...

an error occurred while trying to create the directory 'DMU'. error code (264): unable to create directory

whats funny is im able to read the EFS files in DFS, but its "EFS2". i guess thats the alternate subfile system? thats where i put my DMU file and key...via DFS in EFS2 tab

anyone know how to get around this?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] pcwireless:
Using CDMA WS 3.8.7, been able to flash Verizon S3 and Sprint S2/S3 to boost mobile, verizon prepaid and verizon postpaid (contract), all with 3g. For me, sprint galaxy was a little easier to flash than verizon. Need to use a donor and copy all relevant info from the donor, including MN-HA SPI, MN-AAA SPI and DMU Public. Didn't do anything with the dmu 10 key in the DMU folder in EFS explorer.

If you don't have CDMA WS 3.8.7, can be done with CDMA 3.6, DFS and QPST.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] zen_phones:
hey majorcinema what did you do diff? just curious

so my progress so far:

still no go. using qpst 2.7 build 378 and DFS 4.0.0.5

using qspt i can't read the sprint s3, at all. but i can write to it. so the only change i've made is i was able to get a 2nd profile in the mobile IP section (i'm able to see it in DFS, 2 green profiles). i cant seem to write HA AAA secret keys or the HA and AAA spi (4D2?) in there and have it stick in either programs. but when i try and write "vzw" under the pw for ha and aaa, in both qpst and dfs i can see 3 characters there when i do the ##DATA# and view/edit that field. phone, as always since this started works- talk/text still no data!! using pageplus prl, the one from this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1838606

i think i'm going to have to break down and buy cdma workshop.

is it possible i have a dud ha & aaa secrets donor, my fascinate? i cant get data on that phone either.

hey pcwireless,

do you think you could hook up dfs and show us your settings for a sprint s3 flashed to verizon prepaid settings? (with your personal info's blocked out of course)

like all the sub tabs under the programming tab?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] pcwireless:
You need to have data working on your donor, the fascinate, to pull the ha and aaa secrets.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] skarloey28:
Everything works on the Verizon S3 model EXCEPT outgoing MMS. If you pull the sim card, everything will work but you will not have a 3G icon and you will have a message to insert a sim.

MMS partially fixed.

I managed to get MMS partially fixed. Now I can send MMS on the VZW GS3 on Sprint network using the stock messaging app. Unfortunately, auto/manual download of MMS messages aren't working yet. When I try to manually press the download button, it doesn't download. It times out and eventually gets an error message.

I used this thread here for the partial fix: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1622055 This fix should work for Verizon, Sprint, Boost, MetroPCS, and Cricket.

I'm almost there...just need to tweak it a little bit more. For some of you, this may work by simply following the fix above. My situation is a little unique...using VZW GS3 on Sprint. If you don't want to fiddle around with this, you can use Go SMS Pro as a work around. You just need to manually configure MMSC, MMS Proxy, and MMS Port in the app's settings.

3G working, Thanks for code and more....

Thanks for this code. I Was desperately waiting for it.

And by the way, if anyone followed the tutorial but not getting data/internet on pageplus. The reason is, you probably are using Demo version of CDMA WS and it is not writing EDGE/ Internet and IP settings to your phone.

I had same trouble for few days and was struggling. Then, magically I found CDMA tool DFS that is free (google it to find it, you only need free account with them) and does almost everything that Paid CDMA WS does. So, I used that tool to write data/ EDGE/Internet/IP settings as shown in this tutorial. I used just logic as to which field of tutorial CDMA WS is corespondent to which field in DFS. And click 'write'. It did wrote in phone and Boom..., 3G was flying in my phone. So, if u have same trouble follow as I said...

By the way, I request if possible, OP, Please re-upload the tutorial video.

IT IS THE BEST. Many thanks to you and to members of this thread.

I am right-now successfully using my Sprint GS3 on Pageplus with everything working. THANKS...

There is no operator numeric in the Verizon S3 build.prop like there is in the Sprint model.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] AlpineMan:
You simply add those lines in build.prop. After adding the lines and rebooting the phone, you can actually see the APN config from the phone's System Settings->More Settings->Mobile Networks->Access Point Names.

For those looking for the OP's video...if you've already viewed it, chances are it's still in your browser's cache. Not sure why OP decided to remove video either.

How did you fix this issue? I was able to read my VZW GS3 using that version of QPST just fine. I think it's got something to do with the radio version you're using. I have "VRLG1" on the VZW GS3.

For my Sprint GS3, in order for me to use EFS Explorer, I had to downgrade the LG8 radio to LG2 for QPST to read the phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] zen_phones:
DFS has an EFS explorer too. for sprint phones (or at least the sprint s3), the file system, you have to click the EFS2 tab

I was able to get around this by pushing the PRL again in QPST. Before I was using AnyCut to write the prl directly on the phone. Seems the way AnyCut was writing the prl made it unreadable by QPST, but the phone reads it fine. I can replicate this every time, not sure what causes it but not going to look into it too much since it doesn't affect the phone reading the PRL itself either way.

i wasnt able to view any files using QPST 278 on sprint GS3, so downdrading radio's worked? and where did you put the DMU file (or i remember you mentioning that you didn't, and you still got 3G interwebs speeds just using the ha & aaa?).

so i got my donor fascinate to finally get 3G! i had to call verizon and ask them to reset the keys (told them my talk and text work but no data). and they said to re-activate it. i was calling from my s3, so i powered it off and took the battery out, and plug in the fassy battery and powered it on, and it just came on itself like magic. the elusive (for me) 3G little icon. i didnt even have to re-activate (it was aldready activated).

now in my data settings (in DFS data tab) it has weird symbols for a pw ??xsjl???kIXX?? type symbols. and i see new ha & aaa hex codes.

tried your tutorial to a T and still no data.

i'm at a lost of what to do. i tried copying the nv, prl's, and data info, wrote in new ha and aaa, and no data on sprint s3.

i paid for cdma ws yesterday (they still havnt sent me my license, takes a day i hear) because that's the only software that can do this?

or were you able to do this with dfs and qpst (378) alone?
