Hello

Do you have a sim card in the phone?.....Under mobile networks set it to CDMA mode.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] norcal4877:
Hey guys, I figured something out that may be of use. :) Long story short, I have 2 USCC GS3's. One viper flashed for me and other one I did using his settings minus passwords. The one Viper flashed would NOT work without sim. It was on 4.1.1. The second one I flashed was on 4.0.4 and still need a sim to make it work. Both of these were on 4.1.2 before downgrading. I'm not sure if that matters or what.

I had a used sim in the first one. It worked perfectly. I have a brand new sim for the second one I flashed. That new sim makes the phone weird out very badly. Guessing since there's nothing on it. Keeps trying to dial *228. The other phone isn't here or I would try it but I'm positive its fine. With the new sim it keeps trying to dial. Once in awhile it just gives up for long enough to connect after messing with settings.

My solution? First off, USCC stores will sell you a blank sim for $6. I ended up ordering a cheap sim card reader/writer with an adapter for micro sim. Its very hard for me to find these used sims anywhere really. I'm just going to copy the data from the used sim to the new sim. Boom. The sim reader/writer may come in handy later as well.

You can use free software to flash these USCC variants btw. DFS will write passwords for M.IP but not PPP HDR etc so have to use QPST. That's all for now really. I don't check back too often but I hope someone gets some use out of this info.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
When you downgraded these phones did you also downgrade the radio back to previous version? If not that,s why they want a Sim Card......

PS: You want be able to write to the USSC/Verizon 4G Cards ;)

Viper
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] norcal4877:
Thanks for the tip on the radios I will research. That would make it easier that's for sure. Can't write to 4g sim cards though? That's very odd. Can't find the software? I'll research as well. How does the store do it? I'll try for the experience. May come in handy but if not it was cheap.

EDIT:Says LG1 so it should work without sim right? Looks like it downgrades the radio when you downgrade with odin but I'm a noob when it comes to this. I've usually messed with HTC phones in the past.

EDIT2:Well, I'm a bit more up on the SIM cards. Glad that thing was only $4 shipped haha.

No data on Note2 Android 4.1.2

Verizon Galaxy Note 2, sch-i605, flashed to pageplus. No data, android version 4.1.2. I flashed it using flashing software. Everything else seems to work. I don't have a SIM card.

For solutions I've read to downgrade android version, downgrade radio, and buy a flash card. Can someone confirm those are my options? Which is recommended? Any suggestions where to buy a sim card? How much? I live in the San Fran Bay Area with strong signal.

Thanks so much!

taking back my statements earlier

ok so I posted on here a few post back that I was having a problem with data on pplus.

WELL IM TAKING THAT BACK. THE REAL ISSUE WAS THAT I FAILED TO REALIZE THAT I USED ALL MY DATA ON GPS MORE THAN LIKELY along with emails . but mainly gps.

viper was spot on I had used up all my data in a 13 days. I will not be using it for gps again.

Thanks again Viper for checking it out for me I will deffinatley be getting a gps in the next week or so boring my bros for now .

once again this guy know his Shizzzz . :good::good::good:

You gotta watch that data...put $10 in awhile back for testing purposes and it blew away in a matter of minutes (yikes!)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gpz1100:
If you're on any of the cheaper plans, mobile data should be disabled altogether. Just leave wifi enabled. There's background data transfers going on even when the device is off. Very easy to burn through data. On a relative's device, everything is turned off, all the location crap, background sync, etc. The only app that has mobile data access is youmail, so it can pull messages after a missed call. 100 MB of data allotment on airvoice wireless $30 plan, about a week left, and 60MB of data remaining.

new and need help

ok, so i just joined the forums, i have a few questions. im trying to flash my vzw galaxy s3 to vzw prepaid, ive read 100+ pages of this topic, and would like to say thanks first off to all of you, its really increased my knowledge, but im still confused, i downloaded the tool kit for the gs3 but still am a little new to this, basically flashing came to me because times are hard. can anyone post up to give me step by step instructions on how to flash, or to at least get me started. hopefully i can get this thing flashed =)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
100MB wow... Thats nothing. I use that in like ten seconds........

Viper
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] norcal4877:
You have to read up on everything. I did 1x flashing before we even had 3g here but 3g is more work. After read up, you'll find out why you want to use Page Plus instead of Verizon prepaid(less drama). Read as many page plus tutorials as you can and this whole thread.

I found a VZW 4g sim and it works with uscc gs3 no probs. Yeeee. :)

EDIT:I am having an issue though. Could be my area atm since it sucks. Last night when I was messing with the GS3 I clearly saw it said evdo under network type. Today my other phone is getting 1x only as well and 3g for a quick sec. Backwards redneck town haha.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DanCar2:
Read 176 pages? Really? Can you give us a shortcut for those who have read plenty. I don't have data. Everything else works. Is a sim card the solution?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] norcal4877:
Read other page plus tutorials. Once you learn the basics there's not really that much to it but some phones are A holes. There's a few passwords you need to get 'somehow' to get 3g working but 1x shouldn't be a problem. Both of my USCC GS3's needed sim cards to get even 1x to work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
Other ones ?

If peeps read thru this Topic I bet ya 95 percent of all the info is here.

I know some dislike me not posting a guide but my deal is to get you guys to learn and think it through. Yeah i could give a step by step but what would you learn from it, right?

;) Viper
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] norcal4877:
I agree with the spoon feeding but there is many tutorials to give basics about what needs to be done. I've skimmed through most of the thread. Searched it a bunch as well. The process is about the same it seems from what I used to do minus a bit. Pulling the passwords out of thin air is a mystery to me though.

If you want to help me out I'll send you a donation dude. This thing was on evdo last night and I didn't change anything from how it is now. Let me know. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Hello

I have had the same issue with some phones I have flashed. My solution was just to remove the sim card and the 3g data kicked back in. You wont be able to see the 3g icon on top once you remove the sim but if you check under status it will say connected and 3g data will work again if it was flashed properly that is. :D

Report back what happens when you remove the sim.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] norcal4877:
Even the USCC gs3 viper flashed just wouldn't connect without the sim. I wish it was as easy as not showing the 3g icon. I was watching the status like I was waiting for a crack sack. Nada. checking browser etc. I'm guessing most of the uscc gs3's will need sim cards since both of the ones I've seen do.

I did rtn reset and had a time getting it back in order. Wouldn't write with anything lol. Anyways, it connected one time to evdo then quit but not enough time to authenticate. 1x still all good. Have to go to better area....

i need help with my sprint note 2 to pageplus 3g please 909-337-4899 jeff
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] norcal4877:
Hey guys, my only guess now is the PPP/HDR Long password is wrong hence the 1x. DFS pulls a bunch of crap so encrypted I'm sure. Its 12 hex characters on my working GS3 that Viper flashed for me. Anyone know how to get this password or decrypt it?

There's almost no information on PPP/HDR passwords on the internet period but many people say they get 3g with using vzw? Some tutorials say otherwise but I definitely don't have the correct one.

Thanks!

hey viper,good to see all that youre contributing to the community here man.

i have a Sprint GS4,i flashed it over to boost.

i own both devices.

donor was a rant.

Its on MF9 Baseband with negalite custom ROM which is touchwiz based.

i purchased CDMA Workshop,but im having some licensing issues and wont be able to renew my license until next month.

i have both Prof 1 & 0 AAA Keys.0 AAA Key is 32 Char HEX and 1 Is A 12 Char HEX.

it OTAs and everything fine now,bu for the life of me cant get 3G to work.

ive set it to CDMA only in the network mode,etc,but it always connects on 1xRTT under network Type.

im not sure where to go from here,i used CDMA Workshop paid before,but i cant atm.

anything you could suggest?

thanks again man,much appreciated.

EDIT:If you cant offer any advice thats cool,i dont want any info on how to flash etc...just how you would go about getting 3G working.my mistake i didnt see this before.

Viper, your copy of HiddenMenu did not work for me but it inspired me to search Google Play and I found another copy that works. I really appreciate your suggestion that led me to solve the diag mode problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
If it did not work then it was user error, as I use it all the time for that phone. But does not matter since you have the problem resolved now.

You may want to let others know the name of the apk you found also, incase they want to try it.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CellCare:
It could be user error but I just could not get it working. The "Launch Hidden Menu Settings" button does not seem to do anything for me.

The tool I downloaded from Play store is called "Hidden Menus" by Craig Newell. (I am not able to post the link to the store due to the lack of privilege). There are a lot of codes listed in this app, most of them don't work, the one that works for me is *#*#DMMODE#*#* , it brings up the hidden menu toggle window. Note that dialing that code directly through the dialer does not work, you have to do it through the app.

It's just another app to try when others fail.

---------- Post added at 09:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:46 PM ----------

Just wanted to add a bit more... Figured out the problem which was most likely why it wasn't working before, as it 'did' connect to evdo before I had and knew it needed a sim. There was a box checked called EVDO RX Antenna Control in DFS. could have been from copying all settings in DFS at one time instead of important ones. I never checked it but I took screenshot of the working GS3 and compared. Viper hooked me up again. :) Awesome dude. Very much appreciated! Weird thing is his keys are different than the ones I had. ITs working which is all I care about.

BTW, The verizon sim in USCC phone does get 3g no problem. Without any sim neither of these would connect at all. I don't mean not getting the 3g/1x icon I mean they just wouldn't connect. Something to keep in mind.

I won't really be on here anymore. Just wanted to get these going. I wish I could give back the way you guys have helped me but I'm a complete noob with this stuff. Have fun. :)

verizon note 2 DFS CPS error

I previously had a problem letting DFS recognize my verizon note 2. It seemed the phone was not letting DFS in even though I set it to the diagnostic mode. DFS could see the port but can't see the phone online. I kind of solved the problem by using a script from here (the one for SG3 with idproduct value replaced with 685d).

Here is the problem for now. DFS can see the phone. However, device name and id show up as empty in port manager. When I send the SPC (000000) and password (2009031920090615), the log says complete rather than unlocked. The equipment status shows bunch of "CPS Error". I can't read anything from the phone. I really appreciate if the experts here can give me some hint.

Some background info. The phone is flashed with stock rom VRAMC3, rooted and unlocked by CASUAL, with an insecure boot image installed with the toolkit.

When I go to abouy phone my # is diffrent from what ibported to pp.

My sprint s3 running hyperdrive release14 is successfully flashed to pp with 3g. Works great I had a lot of issues getting here but finally got it. My problem is when I initially flashed it the # I ported to pp shows up on the about phone section of settings. Now it shows the number that the original sprint user had. Everything works even when I make a call the ported number shows up on other folks caller I'd and text messages. When I tried to set up VM , long dialed 1, it just called the friend we bought the phone from. To whatever company she ported her old # that shows up in the about phone section of my phone. Any suggestions or solution would be greatly appreciated.

Connect your Verizon Note 2 to CDMA Workshop 2.7 and send the spc and password with it and then unhook from it. Then open DFS and connect to it send the spc and password. Let me know if that works for you to get DFS working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sfcwtu:
Thanks for your suggestion! Tried that, but did not work. CDMA workshop says failed to send SPC and failed to send password. DFS was the same. It seems the phone is blocking any software request. I checked the script I used to turn on DM. What really made a difference is the one that writes 'diag' to /sys/class/android_usb/android0/f_diag/clients. I suspect that another switch has to be turned on in the phone to accept software requests. It's strange that the hidden menu did not turn on DM correctly.

So much for me being able to flash devices and posting craigslist ads.... I have a Sprint s3 i'm stuck on... flashed but no data
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] catnapped:
Wondering if my S3 is a basket case...pretty sure I have the keys right on it but it can't hold a 3G connection. Monitoring Signal Check Pro, RSSI is running ~ -110 - -115dbm or so, Ec/Io goes all over the place...single - digits one moment, double - digits another, sometimes goes all the way to -31.5db then usually loses the EVDO connection altogether (then the process repeats). For giggles have my E4GT and iPhone in about the same spot (on top of my printer under the counter) and they both seem to work properly and hold the connection (~-100dbm and single digit - Ec/Io...~400-500K down on speedtest). Both of the other phones also seem to work acceptably in the outside world, the S3 is hit or miss. Not sure if there's something else I should look into in the flashing parameters or if I should just write the S3 off altogether (bad antenna?)
