Hi everyone. Mods, please feel free to move this to a different thread if I'm not posting this in the proper place, but since I was working specifically on PagePlus flashing via the OP, I figured this was the right place to ask. Anyways...

I tried using this guide to flash my Rezound on to pageplus, and I've had a heck of a time with it. Been workin on it for a week now. I bought the phone used, was on 4.05.605.14 ICS stock. Followed the instructions in the OP, I had talk and text, no data. Tried some of the suggestions on the first couple of pages, still no data. Then, I got hold of the Verizon 4g sim from my wife's phone, put it in and tried the solution from post #112. Nothing. After that, I took the sim card out, rebooted, and voila! I had talk, text, and data (no MMS though... hmmm.) Now here's where everything has gone wrong...

I figured root, unlock, s-off were next up since I wanted to try out some custom roms. Well, using Hasoon's AIO toolkit, I got the bootloader unlocked, installed TWRP, rebooted the phone. Ran SuperSU intstaller, reboot to TWRP, superSU installs. Reboot phone. Hell breaketh loose...

Not exactly. Phone boots fine. However, something happened that caused me to no longer have service. I have radios, but anytime I try to make a call, I get "Welcome to Verizon, there was an error processing your call. Please power down, reboot your phone, try again, blah blah..." I can't receive calls either. No text, no data connection, nothing. It's as though the network no longer recognizes the phone. I've tried going through items in DFS and QPST again (admittedly I'm new to these programs, I tried to avoid messing with things I didn't know what they were, maybe I slipped somewhere?) I've tried both a GB and an ICS official RUU.EXE from over at androidfiles.org. Now, the phone doesn't even seem to want to recognize the sim card... with a sim in, it wants to activate via *22899 every couple minutes, but whether or not a sim is in, my lock screen always says "A sim card is needed to operate this phone." Ugh...

I came from a Droid x I had for 2 years on PagePlus (and I called their CS, my account is in proper order with them,) and I've never had something like this happen. I was rooted, flashed roms regularly, was able to find my way out of most issues, or dig through the forums (rootzwiki mostly, but the rezound forum is like a ghost town over there.) I also flashed a Bionic to PagePlus a couple weeks ago for my wife, had it runnin in an hour with no sweat since. I'm lost. Can anybody help? Does anybody have any idea what happened to my phone and what, if anything, I can do? Thank you so much.
[HTC Rezound] rgnicholas:
I am not a pro at this at all and I can empathize with you about how reading and re-reading all of these posts can just make your head spin. If you have another phone, maybe your wife's Bionic or the old Droid X, which was working for you on PP... log into them with DFS and make screen caps of the existing settings -OR- save them to a file to your desktop. I think DFS will let you do this. Then simply replicate them in the Rezound. That is what I did and it is still working fine. I have flashed dozens of ROMs to try them out with no ill affect. In my case, I still have a Verizon SIM inside only to make the annoying "you have no sim card installed" boot message go away. I really believe that the SIM card has no bearing on getting PP to work.

Going from memory... if you can read the "working phone's settings" and save them to a file, then I believe that you can then import them into the setup of your new phone. Read my post #132 and see what was an important part for me to get this to work... "Select "NV-only, you MUST click write to actually unlock or untick something before the other settings like NAM1 would take properly. THIS WAS VERY IMPORTANT in my situation. It was not an intuitive thing for me to know."

I hope this helps a bit! Good luck!
[HTC Rezound] kghayse:
I saw your post #132, I made sure to check nv-only every time because of it. But your idea about taking screencaps with my other phones isn't a bad idea, I'll give that a try in a little bit. Thanks for the idea.
[HTC Rezound] J D A:
Really frustrated...

I could kill someone right now. I've tried everything for the NAM, DATA, and something or other settings. Nothing works. I've looked at everyone's screencaps and everything I have is more or less identical to theirs, but my Rezound refuses to work with data. I don't even have 1x. SMS and talk work fine.

I'll post screencaps if anyone is able to help me?
[HTC Rezound] rgnicholas:
Hey there J D A, as I mentioned in another post, I am not an expert but I will try to help as best I can when you post the screen caps. I understand how frustrating this can be.
[HTC Rezound] J D A:
Thanks a lot, I'll try to be as detailed as possible. I should note foremost that I do have a PureTalk GSM SIM card in my phone right now. It was activated as late as last month but I no longer have service for it.

Also, what do you mean by updating the ESN with PagePlus? When I added my device to the service, I had to drop the last digit of my ESN (as per KittyWireless's instructions for PagePlus -- when I entered the full ESN it didn't work but doing that did).

I've attached pictures of what I have in DFS for the 8k and 9k ports. I tried to copy what you and Yura80, as well as AsianCajun had.

I got the correct MIN,MDN, and SID from P+. I have no idea what my MIN A & D for IMSI and IMST T are (I just entered the value from my phone's about (MCC|MNC|MIN). I used MIN in those fields, so the first three are all 352. I don't know what the settings section does, I copied you guys. I don't know what my PCS is, I used my MDN value too for that. My SID is a 4 digit number, according to PP. When I enter it it fills out every row in the column, is this right? Same for NID when I copy it. My PRL is 52711 (what came with the guide). I don't know what the lock SID and NID values are. I also note that my secret values for MIP are blank. I should also note that when I switch to the 9k port (COM4), in the top bar it says my min is all zeroes. Is this normal?

All settings are the same for both the 8k and 9k ports for NAM 1 and NAM 2. Everything has written, so I know I didn't try it locked.

On my phone I have the following settings:

- Preferred Network: CDMA Only.

- CDMA Roaming Mode: Automatic B.

- APNs: Only an untouched VZWINTERNET.

- Under Network Info: Mobile Network Type - CDMA EvDo rev. A.

- I did set the radio to CDMA (PRL) with LTE Switch (On/Off).

Any insight? I should note that SMS and Calling seem to be working perfectly both ways (with the following anomalies):

- When I make a call it says before it starts dialing my account balance.

- I can't call my phone using 1-(xxx) xxx-xxx. I'm told to dial the number without a 1, which is weird since on PureTalk it didn't do this.

Thanks a lot.
[HTC Rezound] J D A:
Pleased to say that after another hour of work, I GOT 3G WORKING MIRACULOUSLY!!!!!!!! I AM DONE touching the DFS settings, because whatever I did works. Google Play and the internet work! Woot woot! I have no way to test MMS though, could someone be of service and PM me?

Does anyone have a fix for MMS though (I need the correct APN settings)? I'm on Android 4.0+...

REALLY WEIRD ISSUE: Set my radio to CDMA auto (PRL) with LTE On/Off. When I turn off Mobile Network in settings, I can't turn it back on. But when I go to Usage I can turn it on from there. Hopefully it's just a with my ROM. So happy about this though.
[HTC Rezound] rgnicholas:
Ok, I will try to compare my old screencaps from my settings and make comments in blue throughout your comments. Hopefully, this will help you a bit. All I cans say is that I have had service since I finally got my recipe right... mind you, I had data BEFORE I had voice... go figure!

AWESOME... all of my rambling might have just confused things more! Hope it continues to work well for you!
[HTC Rezound] J D A:
Everything's working great! The only issue is MMS, no APN settings work. :( Now I've flashed to INFECTION 2.5 and there is no place to enter APN info (however I think if I flash the GSM patch I'll find an APN section -- but will it apply to P+?!?!). MMS is an essential for me!
[HTC Rezound] rgnicholas:
I think that the settings would be pinned to Verizon... I also use Infection 2.5... I just sent a MMS to my daughter and she got it.
[HTC Rezound] J D A:
I tried it with my mom's phone and it just shows sending and never sends. ONLY MMS doesn't work and I've nowhere to enter APN settings at all (even if they are "pinned"). Did you just flash and go? I can only get 3G working with my old GSM SIM card in it (without the card 3G is shown, but not accessible -- I'm trying again without a SIM right now).

Yep, MMS is not working. Sending even the smallest picture still results in sending (until it fails). Unless I'm missing some setting? I have 3G.
[HTC Rezound] rgnicholas:
Hmmm... I do have a Verizon sim card in my phone but it is only to stop the annoying message about "No Sim Card" on the initial boot up. I wonder if there is a "data" setting which has some control over the MMS? Not sure.

Leave everything else as is, be sure to check the radio button to make it active and then reboot.

Regarding nam 2, there is no reason you would need to program nam 2, different nams are for different lines.
[HTC Rezound] J D A:
Where do I set the APN in Infection though?!??!
[HTC Rezound] int main:
I am guessing, I have never used that rom, if it is a CM 10.1 rom.... Settings -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names
[HTC Rezound] J D A:
Alright well I had to edit the apns-conf.xml file in Infection to get MMS working! For anyone else who can't access the Access Point Names section under Mobile Networks in settings (for me it isn't there), here ya go:

I put this configuration in the file twice. Once under the first APN setting. From the first one I removed mms from type="default,mms,dun". I also pasted it at the end of the file after the modifications to enabled eHRPD support. It might have been unnecessary, but hey, everything's working great now!

I am glad you got it working. The only things that are really needed are "Name, APN, MMSC, type, Bearer", it works though and that is all that matters. As you correctly stated the "type" only needs to be "mms". Using type "default,mms" allows you to check the button if you have access to the add access point names area. Also just a quick note, I do believe that "IPV46" (Internet Protocol version) is invalid .... The options are normally " IPV4, IPV6, or IPV4/IPV6 "
[HTC Rezound] rgnicholas:
Good question... hopefully Neo will give us an update sooner than later. ;)
[HTC Rezound] Wileyworld:
Maybe some new hope...

Do I need to update to Android 4.xx to get this done? Ive been wrestling with this Rezound on stock 2.3.4 and been over & over this forum without success. (I have all my friends fully functional on P+, but not my OWN phone). I will pour over the new screen captures and comments... It will soon be a year I've been fighting to get the data/mms going... phone and txt have been fine (except when I fiddle with DFS and get bootloops and have to nandroid or factory reset). Thanks folks for the new support here :)

EDIT: If I ought to update firmware, ought i do OTA if I like stock Sense?

( I assume I can trigger that from Settings>Software update + then reflash AmonRa Recovery)

Does that make sense or would I save trouble by just installing a 4.xx rom from here in the forums?

[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
If I add that APN into the cm10.1 roms above. It will work right? Just so you guys won't have to add it when flashing cm10.1
[HTC Rezound] J D A:
Hey guys just an update. In Infection 2.6 you can actually change the APNs for CDMA devices without going into the conf file. Will check it out. Also no more sum card full messages! :)
[HTC Rezound] kghayse:
Finally! 3G!

Wow, I was really starting to think I'd never get it working. After I posted a couple of weeks ago about my troubles getting everything working in post #157, I gave up on this for a bit. Well, I got back to it with a Simple Mobile sim chip (sounded like people were having more success with GSM sims), and I was able to get voice/text/1xData working easy enough, but still had trouble with 3G. So I went back through every post to see if there was something I missed or overlooked the first time. Sure enough, this little tidbit was overlooked by yours truly. So I swapped in the 4gLTE sim, went back into DFS, rewrote all necessary values, then did a factory reset, reboot, and BAM! 3G! In case anyone is still struggling with this, if you haven't tried a factory reset after writing values, give it a try. I don't know why, but it worked for me. I don't have MMS up yet, but I assume that's just because I haven't bothered to edit the APN settings yet. So thank you Yura80 for that tidbit, Javaman for putting the guide together, and everyone else who contributed to the conversation.
[HTC Rezound] shorty1993:
I can't find a good write up anywhere on flashing the incredible 4g to page plus and can't eveen get a reply to my thread over there. I can't see any reason why this method would not be equally effective on the inc 4g. All settings would be the same, right. Just for this device and really anxiousto get to using it while being careful not to screw it up. Already got it unlocked, s off and rooted so any changes should be quick to make stick. Thanks in advance for any info.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Motorhead1991:
Myself and Kemonine96 are currently working on AOSP and AOKP projects for the W's sister phone, the Rugby Smart, and both of us have hit an issue. Neither one of us have a modem for this board architecture, and need one in order to move on.

Now. here's the catch, the Rugby uses alot of ariesve drivers using the "apache" kernel configuration.

We would both appreciate it guys :)

Happy modding!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tkepk181:
I have just about had it with Sprint's horribly inefficient and poorly capable Customer service representatives. I have been having the issue of no network connectivity.......well excuse me, not no network connectivity, extremely poor connectivity. My speedtest.net speeds are consistantly lower than 10kbps. When I tell this to the customer service people I'm told that the service in my area is showing up green and I should be experiencing the best service that Sprint has to offer. I understand what's going on. I know that it's because of the network visioning upgrades and they're replacing the towers. However, the last thing any customer wants to hear (after paying the $200/month bill (I have multiple lines with Sprint)) is that there's nothing wrong and it's the device's fault. I have been to the store as instructed by the technical support.....nothing's wrong with the phone, it's the network. All I have to say is that Sprint really needs to better train their support staff to not only be more knowledgeable about what's going on but also how to deal with unhappy/unsatisfied customers. I've worked in customer service industries for the majority of my adult life and I know how aggravating it is to deal with unruly customers. But at the end of the day it's their J O B!!!!! If they can't do it then they need to find another line of work.....that's what I did! :victory:

Anyone else have issues with Sprint's customer service?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ascertion:
Sprints cs is actually the best one of the carriers. If you had to deal with Verizon cs, you'd cry.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tkepk181:
I will concede to that point. I just recently came from Verizon and their customer service was absolutely unbearable!

The lure of unlimited LTE and the Galaxy SIII was just too much for me to resist so that's why I jumped ship from Big Red. I just wish that I would have been told up front that when they upgrade the network it would result in significant down time. I specifically asked that question when I switched and I was told that I shouldn't experience any hiccup in service.....just the superb service that Sprint customers have come to expect from their service provider........

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tkepk181:
HAHA, well I figured that a football bat could serve some purpose......just like customer service.......but only sometimes, on very special occasions, like every other Tuesday but only on leap years! :silly:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] a454nova:
Its hit and miss. One out of 3 try's and you get someone who speaks English well enough to understand. But the fact is, who of any company's have good customer service? I had a number to Sprint that got me to someone very nice and smart that spoke clear every time. AAA+ CS. Its was like a back door number. The phone would ring once and there they where. That number doesn't work anymore but it was so nice! 877-775-4886. If anyone has the replacement number to it, PM me please!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Z a p i x:
I dunno, I've had to call them 4 times since I started using Sprint just short of 2 years ago. First time was because of an order screw up, which was actually my fault. Wanted to return the stuff. The csv rep sent me to a store, the store told me they didn't take returns and to mail it all back. Called them again, and the rep I talked to said the store was clueless, then overnighted a box to me to mail the returns back. 1 FAIL, 1 WIN.

Then last month I had to activate 2 S3s, each seperately. First rep was awesome, friendly, knew exactly what she was doing. Then I called again that night, and got some middle aged woman who managed to help me without issue.

In comparison, I have to call Comcast countless times because the cable stops working, boxes break down, internet goes AWOL, etc. I once had service reps at my house all day long several days in a row because they couldn't fix an issue with the internet.

My Playstation 3 died from a YLOD (overheating) despite being in the open. Sony rep told me they didn't care, but if I wanted it fixed I could send it to them and pay them to fix it. Nevermind the fact Microsoft has fixed my 360 several times without asking questions. Only issue I had with Microsoft was they once charged my credit card $10 for a subscription I had canceled, and they refused to refund me. Also gotten plenty of freebies from Microsoft.

So by comparison... Sprint is pretty decent imo. But like all customer service, it's the luck of the draw. It's a job. Some people take it seriously, others cringe when they have to answer a call.

i am in VA beach and we are getting the network vision updates now as well as LTE next month (if they dont delay it) and i get ~1.82 mbps (average; also using speedtest.net app) and my fastest was 2.04 mbps

EDIT: of course on 3G and those are my download speeds
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tkepk181:
Just a heads up, be prepared for your service to go straight in the toilet. If you experience ANY issues at all, make sure that you contact Sprint and get them to note that you're having issues. This way you can get your account adjusted appropriately once the complete upgrade is done and the service has been restored.

Hello

Probably this is a noob question.

Before a custom rom installation, what is the proper way of doing a full wipe?

I know each person has it's own way or sequence of performing a full wipe. Is there a correct sequence of doing this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rymanh:
First you get some toilet paper.. And then you fold it nicely.. Some people like to bunch it in a ball but do whatever works for you.. Then in one continuous motion wipe from front to back :p
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
I like to use a cloth like the one you use on your glasses. I use Windex and sometimes alcohol rubs on tougher stuff to wipe off. Hope this helps

Hi, i cant turn on my tablet.

Its rooted, and i found, that i can change build.prop file to play games, which are not compatible with my device.

So i changed it acording this guide

www.howtogeek.com/116456/how-to-install-incompatible-android-apps-from-google-play/

but i changed it not to Nexus S, but to GT-i9100.

After reboot i only see Samsung logo an then black screen. How can i turn on my tablet?
