Yeah I am pretty sure he does not have any, I found some on ebay for 175.00 or maybe I can pick up a cheap US Cellular one and use it as parts. Same screen from what I have read. Anyways it will work out soon hopefully.....

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mrhunter13:
is the sim card in the Verizon s3 needed for the phone to work after being flashed to straight talk or page plus
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
No! Keep that thing out of your phone! ... If flashed viper's way
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mrhunter13:
OK I got it thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
I have tried to contact several developers to see if they could help with touchwiz Roms getting rid of the icon but have not heard anything back from them. Sorry but I am by no means able to fix that issue myself.......

I will be available tonight at some point to help anyone flash over to Page Plus if need be.....

Viper
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gadget069:
I bet there is an easy fix, just change the icon to a blank one.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
Yeah then people would let the not having a 3G icon drive them nuts....

But thanks for that idea I will look into that, I am not a dev but can do some things, maybe I can change it to a blank icon.

Viper
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
Okay I think what we could do is pick a Rom like Clean Rom which works really well. Find someone who does theming for the Rom and see if they could maybe make the No Sim Card Icon the same color as status bar. That would hide it even though it would still be there. Anyone know anyone who themes Roms?

Viper
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mrhunter13:
I would think it has to be something that can be frozen or uninstalled from the apps that has the no sim icon from showing
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
Yeah maybe so, hopefully I will here from someone soon...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gadget069:

Ok so thanks to you both.. I try removing the sim card again and even though I didnt see any 3g icon I tried using data like nevell said and it worked tried using speed test going on youtube and worked.. also even though I have that sim removed error on top and that I need to have sim inserted for this phone to work everything works and most importantly my actual number is the one showing so when text go out they are received from my # showing .

Wondering why it was working with the sim card inserted before and then two weeks later it decided to change

HI, I am sorry, I look everywhere on teh first few pages but could bot find any instruction for how to do the flash, nor how to find teh mdn or msl.

everything listed on the first page seems to be for note 2 and s3.

I was wondering if anyone have the same problem as me? After i got my sprint S3 flash to PP whenever i plug in the charger it drops to 1X. And i would like to know what's a good rom to flash without the sprint updates? It keeps downloading the update witch be about 200mb or more. thanks in advance

This may not be the section but have my phone flashed to Verizon Prepaid using gusto II but I only get 3G and incoming calls from house phones. I can't send or recive text or calls from cell phones. How do I fix this?

EDIT: FIXED

I used the prl found in the 1st page which was giving me problems I used the one from the other flashing to verizon prepaid thread and everything works.

Voicemails

Don't know if mine is an isolated incident, but one of the techs at page plus said they are having issues with voicemail notification not working for certain 4g phone MEIDs (tech guy knew without even asking what phone I have) I think he said starting with 9900 (or some other number like that, i lost the cut/paste from the chat).

I don't get notifications on stock or cyanogen, tried different prls. but did find that the Voicemail Notifier app in the market will work. just have to hit enable every time you want it to check.

If anyone else experiences this or has a better solution(that doesn't involve changing voicemail service provider) let me know,

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
good information.....

I will look into it also to see if anything can be done....

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gadget069:
After reading this I decided to check my voice mail, sure enough 2 messages.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
Yeah, seems to be a issue with some phones, probably Sprint Ones...... I have used several Sprint Phones flashed to PagePlus but I use Youmail so did not miss a beat...... Its not part of the flash so I am sure it is something in other parts of the phone programming. I will try to find a soultion if ones out their.......

Good News for Page Plus Customers....... I almost forgot I received this email this morning on some plan improvements ;)

Viper

More Data Coming to Two Monthly Plans!

We are very pleased to announce an increase in the amount of data provided in two of our monthly plans.

The Talk n Text 1200 plan will be receiving an increase from 250 MB per month to 500 MB. Customers will soon be able to use double the amount of data each month for the same $29.95 price. The increase is expected to take effect in mid-July.

Unlimited Talk n Text will also be getting an increase in the data allotment from its current 200 MB to 500 MB. The $39.95/month price of this plan will also remain the same. We anticipate that this increase will take place in mid-August.

We will notify you of the exact dates of these plan improvements as the time gets closer. As with any plan changes, customers will receive the data increase with their next monthly plan renewal following the date of the change.

For those customers who are unsure about either of these plans because of their current data amount, these improvements will help you seal the deal!

And before you guys start asking I have no clue of the date it will go into effect........

Viper
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] afextwin:
So I didnt read all 110+ pages, only about 50 or so, but this thread mentions nothing of editing build.prop or settings.db which I find odd as I've had to make a change in one or both to get bionic and og razer to OTASP.

Is OTA possible on Stock TW 4.1.1 or do I need to flash CM to get OTASP? I added the lines into my buil.prop but it doesn't let me dial out.

I also noticed some lines in build.prop that I swear should be deleted completely as they are for gsm phone's and we are trying to make this thing work on 3g/cdma only.

I found it strange that after setting RUIM_NV_ONLY, PRL 58XXX, REV_A_MFPA and inserting a sim card the phone would auto-dial *22899 and it would almost complete programming but it wouldn't download the proper PRL (53166 vs 53188) or program the shared keys, yet, it did everything else, 1x worked and I didn't manually program or use dfs/cdma workshop to program anything.

I added these lines, but they don't seem to do anything for this phone on this particular build

ro.cdma.otaspnumschema=SELC,0,1,80,99
ro.cdma.subscription=1

I changed these lines

ro.telephony.default_network=4
telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=0

The only thing I've yet to do is write the 10.key as described in "edd's 3g tut.txt" but only because I didn't have to on the bionic/razer and man would it be nice to get OTASP working 100%

I want to perfect this...and release the information, because there is no reason to pay anyone to flash a phone, ever. But I feel I have much more learning to do.

Does anyone have some sort of reference bible for settings.db and build.prop entries?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
The reason you did not write a 10.key on the razr and bionic is they already have one. Build prop edits not needed on the phones discussed here. The S3 , S4, ,Note 2 phones are completely different than the razr method..... That's all I have time to bring up at the moment, but good luck to you in your quest.....

Viper
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hpark21:
Ok, I got Sprint Note II flashed to PP. (I didn't care really about 3g so I did not pull keys for AAA/HA)

Using DFS.

That said, I am getting: "Error #89: unknown error"

pop up all the time.

I have no problem making/receiving calls and texts but that popup is beginning to annoy me.

Does anyone know what it is? and how to get rid of it?

Maybe I have to make couple of changes - maybe pref mode setting should be changed. (I left it default to: LTE_CDMA_HR)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
Data connection error is what you are receiving.........

Needs to be flashed properly...... Cannot tell you whats wrong without seeing what you have done to it ;)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SPORTSMAN70003:
Flashed my first S4 today. Is it me or are these things getting easier?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
The S4 is not bad at all (besides the USCC ones which are always a pain). The S4 easier to use a donor like I am sure most of you are doing. But with that being said the passwords etc. and true authentification requires pulling keys in without using a donor. Yes it may seem the same when you use a donor but their is a difference. But I am happy to see that you got the job done whatever the method. Glad to hear for sure ;)

Viper
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] afextwin:
You are right, this s3 from USCC is a real PITA. Do you know of any RTN menu for USCC variant or any custom ROM that will give me access to one? I'm getting crazy signal drops, I think because I wrote or tried to write inactive items on NAM2.

RE: VZW S3: Well the 10.key and secret keys from a donor worked, ate up 62 cents of my remaining balance in less than 2 seconds, i saw 3g icon for about 1/2 a second and then got a text message saying my balance has reached zero....so it's time to add a 10 dollar card and run a speed test :D

Now to find edd and thank him for his write-up.

edit: 800k up 800k down...pretty poor performance but it allows me to send an mms no problem, use gps, and google things. EVDO-rev.A:8 is what is showing under Status menu, I have the no sim warning, and I have no 3g or 1x icon - but data does work. talk, text works. mms works with moddedverizonmessengerapkstolenfromwirelessworkshop.apk , i have not tested the native message app.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
Yeah still sounds like you may have done authenification problems with those speeds. Keep digging you will get there......

Viper
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] afextwin:
OK, now hitting 2100kbps down, 1300 up...background data was taking away from my speedtest, i just ate 2 ten dollar cards...i have no idea how, but the phone gobbled down 20 dollars of data at what, six cents a meg? jesus......i swear when i had wifi on there was no background data, i need to put a 55 on this thing and see how it runs :D

EDIT: this USCC S3 is a headache. At first I couldn't get shared secret key's to stick past a reboot. Then I decided to write the keys with DFS and read them with CDMA workshop and then reboot phone with DFS. They stuck. But now I can't get DMU MN AUTH or whatever to stick. I tried writing 1.178.7 in DFS, reboot, blank. I tried writing 02E0B in CDMA workshop, reboot, blank. I tried writing in one, reading in the other, no reboot in between and they are still blank. DFS was spitting out "INACTIVE NV ITEM" error's when writing it, but now it doesn't.

Any hints? Should I downgrade to ICS and try it all again? I haven't tried to *228 since using the donor, but this phone did OTASP in the past...nah, I won't do it. I'll wait for that "Eureeka!" moment, or a kind reply from someone with some experience.

Also, the phone is set to Simple+Mobile - I figured this thing is closer to a VZW than a SPR so I would use what is preferred for VZW phones.

The main problem now is that the phone cannot connect to a mobile data network and so it drops signal and reboots the radio about every 45-60 seconds. I really need an RTN menu :-/
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mrhunter13:
today I seen a video on YouTube of a guy with a Verizon note 2 working fully on straight talk he said it wasn't flash but rooted and unlocked to straight talk...it had the 4g and 3g working.. is that even possible? and I read that u van get the unlock code from Verizon
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jameyscott:
From what I understand, it is not 4g LTE but hspa+ (fake 4g) and it requires more than just rooting and unlocking. You also have to put in the apn and other stuff. I have a basic knowledge of what to do, nothing like viper though. ;)

So yes it's possible to unlock a Verizon cdma for use with usa gsm networks

No i haven't, Viper flashed me, guess I might have to learn.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] showcasemodr:
Hey Viper,

You said awhile back that one could Odin the latest stock and it won't affect the flash. I assume this meant odining the stock root TW Roms found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1910947

sorry if its as stupid question. There are a **** ton of roms for the S3, I figured I'd stay on stock for awhile and then maybe try out a custom rom, but I don't even know where to begin there are so many!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gadget069:
It shouldn't effect anything flashing any rom you want. I couldn't tell how many flashes I've done with my s4 and everything is fine. So flash away!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dirkdigles:
When flashing a new rom you will have to re-flash APNs and other stuff (related to getting MMS working etc.) but your carrier flash will remain intact.

AKA, this stuff in the DATA menu:

Others:
