For Sprint, Boost, Virgin Mobile, Ting or any other Sprint MVNO... the answer is YES.

Not sure on Verizon/Verizon MVNO.

anybody willing to make money? I have a us cellular s3 and I want to flash it.I tried but I can't get this working and patience isn't one of my strength. thanks pm me if anybody is interested.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SteveHebe:
I have a SGN2 (i605) that I rooted, unlocked & flashed to Pageplus. (Casual) Long story short, now it needs be sent back to Samsung due to an apparent defect. So I unrooted it and reflashed it back to 100% Stock. Now Verizon is telling me that it can’t be activated.

A.	Does a phone that has been flashed the PPC have to be flashed back to VZW?

B.	If it was returned to full stock, how would vzw know that it had been previously flashed?

C.	If the phone is being returned to Samsung due to a defect, (which they have acknowledged) do they care if the phone was flashed?

Thanks in advance for any info.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Asadullah:
The aaa/ha keys for verizon are based on your phone number (mdn). For instance the other night when I flashed a ladies phone to verizon prepaid her aaa started with a 'c' then when I ported her number over it started with an 'a'. I'm sure you got this now but the mdn and min are connected but I have had the wrong min and my phone still worked before.

It's because they ported the meid to their system. I believe verizon will port a phone but not if it's already been in their system. Samsung won't care about the phone being flashed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dmonleo:
Ok so there is dif of opinion.

I compared the ha/aaa keys of two samsung i500. Then used one as target and other as donor. The keys on the donor varied from the original.

I have yet to compare them after an esn switch.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
There is no difference of opinion.

Fact:

All HA and AAA keys are based on the MDN and MEID.

If either of the 2 change so does the keys.

Try this for proof.

Method 1:

Activate a number on your donor phone. Wait for the 3G to kick in then check the keys.

Now on your donor phone change the meid then swap the number to the new meid you just changed via P+ dealer portal.

Dial *22899 after it reboots wait for the 3G to kick in then look at your keys.

Method 2:

Activate a number on your donor phone.

Wait for the 3G to kick in

Change your number to a different number via the dealer portal.

Dial *22899

after reboot wait for 3G to kick in

Then read your keys.

Lol do I need to make a video to show that my way is the truth ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dmonleo:
I would prefer method #2...

Oh yeah a video would be "bomb diggity!"
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] norcal4877:
I'm having a very weird problem... Donor is LG vortex. Everything goes fine ( will even OTA) but when I try to make a call it either goes to verizon wireless error OR just disconnects. I've never seen anything like this but I'm new to Page Plus flashing. Donor is off the whole time. Anyone ever seen this before?

Also, when I press 611 it goes to verizon. Weird huh?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] norcal4877:
SOLVED! Got PP CSR in chat and they reset something. Working fine now. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dmonleo:
They probably had to reset your data/refresh system? Did they tell you what they did?

trying to flash sprint d710 but always says 16 digit password is wrong , any advises
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bricky23:
I have a verizon razr maxx. It was flashed to pageplus. There was no need for a donor phone. The question that I have, is if I were to transfer it to another phone number on pageplus. What would I have to change? Or since it is a verizon phone, if I put an aosp rom on it, or a non stock rom, such as cyanogen. Could I just do the *228? Thanks in advance.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xfatefalxsnipex:
Can anyone help me with my problem.

I have a ppc galaxy s3 fully flashed just no 3g. I have my own verizon contract s3 and I wanted to know if I can use that as the donor without losing the ability to have my contact s3 but still giving the ppc s3 3g.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] El aye:
Is there anyway to get MMS working with the stock app? I hate GoSMS pro and it seems to require me to disconnect from wifi to even work (I followed the directions from maxmk09 reply #523). Will using APN backup and restore work?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
Put that in a code box.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] El aye:
I guess I should re-phrase. Does using APN backup and restore to load pageplus.xml do anything different than me going into ##3282 and editing MMSC URL and whatnot (which I have done)? Without knowing for sure I would say it's doing the same thing. Is there a huge difference in the pageplus.xml posted above (if I copy + pasted it into my own txt file and renamed to xml, obviously) compared to other files, example being found at ht tp://w ww.pageplusremote.c om/faq.h tml?

I want to be able to use the stock app since I severely despise Go SMS pro, and ideally I would like to not have to disconnect from wifi to be able to download MMS. Is this feasible? I've read some other threads where people got the stock app working fine, but they didn't mention wifi disconnect.

Thanks in advance.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BMP Racing:
Thanks!

Nevell just got my daughters SG3 phone dialed in to P+. Great reception, 3G works flawless! Great guy to deal with!

Thanks again Nevell!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SPORTSMAN70003:
Quick question is the 10.key specific to each phone or can I use the 10.key I pulled earlier over and over?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
You can use it over and over again

Finally getting a galaxy s3! Going to flash right when i get it then get me some PACman ROM on my phone :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] futr_vision:
Cool. Which carrier?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
Verizon

Sent from my SPH-D710 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] futr_vision:
I think I know the answer to this. Can a donor phone also be used with a carrier? For example I have a Note 2 on Verizon. Can that be used as a donor phone for my GS3 which I am trying to get on PP? I don't think it can. If not will a Droid X work?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
Droid x should work. The note 2, no. The note 2 would also require a donor

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
This is not true, the Razr, Razr Maxx, S3 and a few other verizon 4g phone require no donor to get 3G. When or if I get the time today I will try to release a new guide free of charge that will show you how to get 3G allot easier. (They will get the keys, but they will download on their on, things about to get allot easier for you guys with Verizon stuff.....)

Hold on Mopar, don't jump the gun. I just did one with dfs on ics and it worked flawless.

(On another note, I need a couple of volunteers.

Looking for any of the following:

1. A Verizon S3 that has not been flashed before still stock.

2. Anyone that has CDMA Paid version.

3. A way for me to flash your phone with CDMA Workshop from my computer with a virtual port. (If we can figure this out I can hook allot of you up real quick)

The Verizon S3 needs to be on 4.1.1 or below also...... you can update back to 4.1.2 after we finish if you really want to.....

Ok, i'm looking everywhere.... Is it safe to flash the LG2 Sprint radio on a VZW GS3?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] AlpineMan:
No. I've tried that... scared the heck out of me... I thought I bricked my phone. Had to ODIN back to complete ROM stock that included Verizon radio to get it working again.

Why do you want to flash Sprint LG2 radio? You can flash Verizon LG1 radio if what you're trying to accomplish is to get the Samsung password working again.

Okay guys I have not forgotten about this, I promise it works, I have just got to figure a way to flash from my computer to yours with cdma paid version. Seems DFS does not want to hold some things that you write.

If anyone has any ideas and know how on using USB over Network then I think we can whip this.

For now I know for a fact that the Razr, Verizon S3, Stellar all work with my method with true 3G without putting any keys in.

If anyone has teamviewer and CDMA paid message me or email me at powersales22@gmail.com and I will try to hook up with you later and make sure it works that way also.

Is there a guide to do this without CDMA workshop? I've read of people doing it with DFS cdmatool but I can't find a guide. I'm trying to flash a sprint s3 to page plus. I don't have page plus at the moment if that matters for the flashing process. I would also like to port my number

Thanks for this guide anyway, I know it will help either way.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gadget069:
I know this was asked earlier but I don't think it was answered, it seems the Sprint s3 it's preferred over the Verizon s3, why? I'm only asking because I'm looking at moving to page+. I currently have a gsm s3 with straight talk. I did pick up a donor phone (I500).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
Vzw s3 is apparently a ***** & a half....... I still don't have data! So to anyone if possible, yes get a sprint s3 not a vzw..... And with dfs, it just doesn't work.........

Sent from my SPH-D710 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
I will tell you this the Verizon one is much, much easier to flash than the Sprint one. The Sprint S3 has issues holding 3G Data. In and out all the time. I would recommend a Verizon one ten times fold. I flash phones for a living and the Sprint ones and the US Cellular ones are much much more difficult.

moparfreak: Your issues are several different people including yourself have been flashing on your phone. Your issue can be easily remedied with Paid version of CDMA Workshop.....

As for me I think the DFS cdmatool is a good utility. I mean I have been able to get the "golden fleece" no pun intended. And the OP has provided an excellent blueprint on how to get this thing going.

Im at 2-0, 3G working. DFS is a beast.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
Yeah well, everyone entitled to an opinion. I do this for a living, flash over 60 phones a week or so. I will always recommend CDMA to anyone that is serious about flashing.....

Normally no, I have flashed with ICS then used another ROM and it did not affect the flash.....

Viper
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gadget069:
I'm not usually a "flashaholic", once I'm on a rom I like, I usually don't stray.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
Your flash to different carrier is stored in NV ram, which is never affected by flashing to a different rom, even doing a one click back on e4gt didnt reset( but since it was a sprint phone, had modify build.prop & push in different apns with every flash)... anyways, on the vzw s3, no, should not be affected at all
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gadget069:
Ok, one more question. Per the video in the first post you have to be registered with p+ and have the MIN from them. So I'm assuming I have to have the s3 already setup on p+ to get the MIN?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
Just any phone then activate your s3 so u can flash your min & mdn

If you have the vzw i535, using the phone info app is very helpful. Also the vzw message app for mms to work with ppc (p+)

The full version of CDMA Workshop is really expensive to get...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SPORTSMAN70003:
Is the full version of CDMA work really that much better? When I remotely flash someones sprint S3 I only use QPST and the demo version of DFS and everything works great.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Moduli:
Maybe.. if I know how to do that...

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Asadullah:
Hey I posted this in my threads and figure I would post it here. Verizon has a new prepaid plan. For 35 bucks you get unlimited text data and 500 minutes. Yes you will have to flash your phone but it's a really good deal if you have wanna be on verizon
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gadget069:
Doesn't Verizon scan for smart devices?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Asadullah:
I've been on verizon prepaid for about a year, maybe more now and haven't had a problem. I don't think they care it increases the number of people who are on verizon and not on another carrier or worse people who are on mvno (page plus).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Moduli:
This is great! Thanks a lot. But it is for Verizon GS3. How about Sprint?

The DFS guide is from Asadullah, you will find info for Sprint/Verizon gs3 at the beginning of this thread from the OP.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] daleshue:
Viper I have a verizon galaxy s3 that has been on page plus for a while now but had slow data. Last week i flashed it with wireless workshop because claimed 3g data but after that i have no data. I have tried everything even watch nevell video using cdma workshop. I have a paid version of cdma workshop and have flashed my phone back to stock. I am willing to give your method a shot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dmonleo:
You have to get the HA/AAA keys to obtain 3G.

We are all waiting for Viper to explain how to get 3G without using the donor method
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
I'm just trying to get any method to work... last night would've probably done it but first WiFi was too slow, got friend to come over so we could 4g tether from his note 2 but then his laptop kept bkuescreening on boot. And mine will not show my phone on usb over network.... stupid sh*t, I just want my 3g data
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SPORTSMAN70003:
I after trying the USB over network my USB ports stopped working right. I would open DFS and could never get it to read any of my USB ports. I ended up uninstalling it and everything went back to working. USB over network would make things easier but its not needed to remotely flash a phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] daleshue:
Verizon S3 data

.

Well right now I don't have data at all and have read post on here all week. I have tried just about everything I know. I have done some flashing but never have lost all my data. In mobile network state it says disconnected when I go to phone status.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
than why does everybody use it? and the hamachi log me in thing? I understanf a program needs to be installed to connect to phone via usb then someone miles away flashes it but.....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SPORTSMAN70003:
I don't think everyone one that flashes uses USB over network. I remotely flash and I don't use it. The only programs you need to remotely flash is Teamveiwer, DFS and QPST.

Well I asked for volunteers to do this but noone but moparfreak has stepped up. I do this everyday at my shop but I want to be sure i can remote do it before going all out with a guide because I need to make sure of a few things. moparfreak has some internet issues but i will get him fixed up. The other thing is sportsman if these things are not needed to remote flash then by all means step up and tell us all how. I mean come on guys I get paid everyday to do this and am willing to share but all I am getting in PM etc. is allot of negative comments. I use professional flashing software because it is reliable and by all means I understand all cannot afford or does not want to spend the money on it, but I learned a long time ago flashing is allot easier with the correct tools.

I am offering my time and services for no cost and seem to get nothing but negative messages etc.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dmonleo:
Well the OP has given a guide using CDMA workshop(3G).

Asadullah provided the DFS guide (3G).

Viper, you say you have a method that gives 3G without using a donor. Thats freaking incredible!! What is this method, I mean if you can do it on a device without remoting in...I think that is the most important issue at hand.

So what/where is your guide?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SPORTSMAN70003:
What kinda problems are you have when trying to flash remotely?

All I do is install DFS and QPST on the persons computer while logged on with teamviewer. I read the donor information with my computer have them plug in the S3 and I write the 10.key with QPST then write all the other information to it with DFS.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
I do about 12 remote flashes a day and I don't use USB over Network.

Also Viper if you can't show proof that you can pull the shared secrets without a donor then why don't you say so and stop having people keep asking you over and over again for it.
