OK, so I got a VZW SIM card, So now it just keeps telling me "Please wait until your phone has been activated"

It will keep dialing out to program and doesn't activate.

Then it just will sit and then it will try doing it again.

What the heck am I doing wrong?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] McTavish55:
I got 1X working now... But I still cant get 3g. I was finally able to put the 10.key into EFS2... So that shouldn't be the problem.

If you have DFS, could you take pictures of your settings in Data, and Mobile IP? I want to make sure I got the right settings...

Edit: Now I am continuously getting error 67... It started after I filled in my PPP and HDR passwords. Even after changing everything back to vzw like before, I can't even get 1X now... Just error 67.

Edit 2: If the IP is set to simple only it doesn't even attempt to connect. Mobile network status just says disconnected.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] McTavish55:
I just went and bought the full version of CDMA workshop. I used the exact settings in the video, With simple IP it just tries to connect for a while then says disconnected with no error. With mobile IP it gives me error 67. I have tried all kinds of variations... setting mode to CDMA only, and Automatic, Having profile 1 and 0 activate, 1 active 0 not, and 0 active 1 not. I'm not even trying to get 3g right now... I'm just using vzw as my passwords, But nothing is working? Is it possible my PRL could be the problem? It's the only thing I can think of now...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] McTavish55:
Nothing is working at all! Simple IP does nothing and Mobile always gives me Error 67... I will honestly pay someone if they can help me get data on here! I've spent so many hours on this stupid thing...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
Lol **puts hand up**
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] McTavish55:
lol, I sent you a PM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gadgetdaddy:
So how do I get data without a SIM, and why is it that with the VZW SIMcard inserted that is keeps wanting to activate, it calls and doesn't activate?

I've injected NAM1, NAM2, PRL NAM1, PRL NAM2 and the A-Key and SSD_A and SSD_B just not the 10.Key because I haven't been able to get into EFS to inject it.

But looking at the about phone, it says that it's on EvDo Rev:A, but it doesn't allow data because it says needs a SIM card if I remove it.

HELP!

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
The Vzw S3 doesn't need a sim card at all for it to work. The sim card only shows that you have a data icon. MMS will not work if you have the sim card in. If you want a full flash you have to take the sim card out. As far as the 10.key you have to read the EFS2 tab in DFS, add the DMU folder, then add the 10.key.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] AlpineMan:
I got MMS to work with the VZW SIM card installed. Essentially, you have to modify the stock VZW APN config xml file in /system/etc to point it to the appropriate MMSC, proxy, and port.

Well for me I took the easy way out? Who needs a 3G icon just up there blinking all the time anyway? Lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Scolis:
I flashed my sprint GS3 over to P+ using the tutorial and voice/txt and 1x data works. Does anyone know how I can get the shared keys so I can get 3g? Any info is much appreciated, kinda new to CDMA.

Thx in advance!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
You need a donor phone to pull the keys from.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Scolis:
Hi Nevell, are the keys linked to the meid or the MDN?

Is there a tutorial on that process online ? :/
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
MDN
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Scolis:
Ok, thanks for the info! guess ill have to go searching for a donor now. 1x sucks lol, any suggestions on a donor model?

DFS question

Hi, I have an s3 sprint and a paid verison of dfs light. I am flashed to vxw prepaid I cannot get data to work can anyone help. I have a cdma that i found on the internet......does it have to be the paid verizon for me to get 3g working because i already paid for dfs. Also I have a fascinate as my donor and I have pulled all but the A-key.....how do I put that on the s3. Thanks so much for help from you all.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] csaket:
Thanks for the excellent videos and discussion.

I have a verizon s3 and an existing pageplus account active on a donor phone.

I am not using a sim.

Followed the guide successfully and rechecked twice to make sure I did not miss anything.

In the end when I try *611 I get "welcome to verizon wireless" and not pageplus.

Does anyone have an idea what might be wrong in what I did? I used the PRL that nevell posted and then later on another different one that I found but that did not help.

It was not mentioned but I switched back from diagnostics mode as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
Make sure the number is on the right meid
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] csaket:
So what you are saying is that I might have put in the wrong MEID?

I thought the MEID shows up automatically when the s3 is connected. I just put in the MIN and the phone number as you showed in the video.

Is there anyplace I have to enter or select the right MEID?

thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
What I mean is make sure you activated the the right meid.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] csaket:
Yes sir, I have connected the s3 that I want to use for pageplus when doing the writing :)

Phone still going to verizon wireless when I do *611 :(

At this moment, all I want to do is just have TALK, even if text/data does not work that is fine, atleast want to get started with talk would be fine.

So in summary, connected the phone, unlocked it, set to NV, reset, wrote the PRL to NAM1 and NAM2, reset, wrote MIN in the 2 fields, then the phone number in the 2 fields, then wrote and read back to make sure that the information is there. Reset phone and tried out *611 when it came back up. Still welcome to verizon wireless.

Changed back to MPT and *611 and still vzw

Did I miss a step?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
Lol did you call and give them the correct meid to activate? Because it's sounds like it isn't.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ironsuperman:
Reply

anyone? lol also that video on noobs was hilarious!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
The CDMA WS crack is old and outdated. The only thing I would see it being used for is to set NV_only mode. I don't use dfs for nothing but writing the 10.key. So, can't help you. I use CDMA WS 3.8.7 for almost all flashing. Some other people here use it though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] csaket:
Thanks for the reminder. S3 is now working fine on pp. :D

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ironsuperman:
Noob video

when i setup my account. It was like you are a noob and you suck...lol

and that a key thing does it matter when flashing an s3 sprint to verizon prepaid?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
Not as far as I know. I don't do many Vzw Prepay flashes.

Can CDMA workshop pull the AAA and HA from an HTC incredible?

I may purchase if it can.

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stangboycic:
Yes it can, and CDMA workshop is well worth the money if you're doing any kind of phone flashing. You save yourself all kinds of headache
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] zen_phones:
I love how cdmaws can save settings/profiles(paid) . Like duh!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tehjolly81:
Question regarding the donor phone - Are the AAA/HA strings unique? (Can you use one donor phone to get 3G working on two 4G phones on Page+)

Does it matter what you do with the donor phone afterward? Will cancelling VZW service on it or selling it used to someone else cause a problem?

Thanks.

I have the demo of DFS, it won't let me read the EFS2 in DFS using the demo.

I have version 4.0.0.6

Is there any other method.

I have paid CDMA ws

OK, I'm able to read it, but how do I add the DMU folder?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
Lol what it lets me read it using the demo just fine
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] alphahere:
One last question. What is the best way to pay for cdma workshop? Heard and read bad things about payment at that website with credit cards.

One donor phone per phone. You can't use the same donor phone for multiple phones unless you change the MDN on the donor phone to match the target phone. If I am wrong correct me someone or lead to the right direction.

Do you have to repair the MEID to match the donor phone?

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
When using a donor you change the meid to that of the phone you want to use. So yes you can use it as much as you want. I've used mine at least 300 times.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ironsuperman:
reply

What has been the problems with credit cards? Also you can reuse the donor as long as you input the new account info and new meid.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
I've never had a problem buying cdma ws. I've got 4 copies. 1 for each of my laptops.

Will order cdma workshop today. Never used it but looks like the way to go. I was able to get an s3 working on page plus with dfs but this was really a headache. Anyway can't repair the MEID on the incredible with dfs. Anyway once I learn cdma workshop that looks like the way to go.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Morandir:
What if VZW activates it for me?

This may slightly off topic, but I am curious if anyone here would know the answer.

I am currently w/ VZW on a dumbphone and am no longer under my contract. What would happen if I bought a brand new, off contract SGS3, activated it with VZW for one month, and then switched over to PagePlus?

When the SGS3 gets activated on VZW, wouldn't it be given its appropriate "credentials" (HA and AAA keys). Could I then have PP port my number, and the SGS3 keep its credentials and thus work with 3G? I know it would be one time chance.

It would just save the effort and cost of CMDA WS, a donor, etc.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ironsuperman:
REPLY

I have never done that but i don't think it would work i think you would need to do the programming again because pageplus might set you up with a different min number, and data keys. But you should ask someone like Nevell he will know better than me :0
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
Lol it can be done as long as you do it within two weeks after you cancel. After the 14th day big red will black list it.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] maxmk09:
do you I need to have it set to Mob+simple or just Simple? when I set it to mobile+simple i get the error 67, but when i set it to just simple i get nothing at all. my active profile is 1 and i have both profiles 0 and 1 setup the same with correct HA keys and AAA keys. I also have only 2 profiles. I did a epic touch just like this and it worked just fine. any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
Uncheck profile 1. Set your network type to cdma only in the cdma drop down on cdma ws. This is assuming your on the Sprint version.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] maxmk09:
Do I still need to have 1 as the active profile or 0?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
0
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] maxmk09:
I did everything u said to the T and still nothing at all. I got 2 profiles ( 0 and 1) 0 is the active now with ha and aaa keys , 1 is there but not active it also has the ha and aaa keys. its set to mobile+simple and in the drop down in cdmaws i got it set to cdma only. do i need to change anything inside phoneinformation (*#*#4636#*#*)? or hdr/1x selection because it is set to cdma only also instead of hybrid. also note this is a sprint one on ICS
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
Sprint ones have to be set to Simple only and it won't take the shared secrets. So, you have to use vzw as the shared secrets and pass. That's why the 3G won't work on the Sprint one. Can't read the efs file system for the 10.key and a host of other stuff.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] maxmk09:
I appreciate all of your help, i did everything you said and nothing is working, im guessing because its on verizon prepaid none the the vzw settings work, must be able to accept those ha and aaa keys. thanks once again
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
Thought you were going to Page Plus. If your on VZW Prepay then you need a whole new method of which is against the rules here. Lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] maxmk09:
I understand
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] zen_phones:
ya i'm having the same issues. i can't seem to write the HA, or AAA keys (that i got from my fascinate s1), or they wont stick. i've got talk and text working, just not the data. and the same goes for my fascinate, i cant seem to get data on that phone either.

are you saying i'm screwed with this set up? i'm invested 50$ in verizon prepaid (and another 50$ card already bought, long story), and a 30$ fascinate for the dmu, ha, aaa donor. please tell me this can work with sprint s3 and verizon prepaid with 3g data!!

also, would you know how to port over a number in DFS? or how about in CDMA WS 2.7? i have existing tmobile number i want to port in. and also, do i have to change the data setting with newported#@vzw3g.com on all the PPP HDR etc?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
Um lets see if I do this right

Yes and No, No, No, and Yes

Lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
I'm no saying that its not possible. I'm saying I can discuss the details on how its done due to forum rules. Sprint Galaxy S3 is much harder for me to get to work properly with 3G on Big Red.

im gonna try some stuff for the galaxy s 3 and keep researching

Yes it can, Nevell has a great video of step by step. I also found a couple people on ebay that do it cheap like 40$, and you can get a donor from walmart or the seller can provide.

it is the same methods just a little different and ST does not have unlimited it is actually capped at around 2 gbs and 100mb a day...

What if VZW activates it for me?

(I may be beating this to death and should just try it, but it's Friday's paycheck to risk.)

Thanks for the insight Nevell. Just to be clear, with respect to programming. "It can be done" that means that they can port my number, or I can do the programming? I'm hoping that the port request would transfer the device info without me having to flash anything. Otherwise.... I might have a request... :/

The current plan is to buy the phone Friday, have big red activate it, and then have PP make a number port request on Saturday (or Monday). Then hope for the best.

Everyone remember: We can use the THANKS button 8 times a day. Nevell looks to be half way to the next level. Let's get busy thanking.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nevell:
Wouldn't it be cheaper and easier just to pick one up off craigslist? I see them here for $250-350 all day. You can port your number yes. The chances of PP giving you the same min as big red are rare. Which means that either way it will have to be flashed. Even if by some rare act of God your talk and text does work, your data won't. Whatever number you use on the Big Red one once you port it you will be stuck with it. Because after the 14 days it will be black listed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] oscarh24:
hey nevell any tips on getting my sprint gs3 on pp??? ive done everything i got donor and everything i just cant get out of the 1x speeds...i really want to see this phone get 3g speeds. thanks in advance
