Question guys. Can a Boost galaxy s3 be flashed to a different carrier? Just curious, since it's basically a Sprint phone. Tried a google search but didn't find anything.

---------- Post added at 10:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:00 PM ----------

Viper, I have been searching XDA & Google for a solution, tried a few things but they didn't work. Phone goes in & out when connected to DSF, QPST, & QXDM so it's impossible to write anything to the phone. Looks like I'll have to buy another phone & get you to flash it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
Yes you can flash a Boost S3, Just Odin it to Sprint and flash away......

Try putting the phone in Airplane mode see if you can get it to connect....

I have a question, I have a buyer for my Verizon s3 which was used on page plus. What should I wipe off it? Mdn, min, anything else? This person is planning on using the s3 on page plus.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dmonleo:
I would just do ##786#, they are going to have to provision it for their info....... unless you do it for them.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
Not sure that works on the Verizon Variant... Think only Sprint and USSC. Well atleast it did not the other day for me.

Paper plus tier 2 support can conference with Verizon to get you set up. You must demand to talk to tier 2 support or you will never get there, once there it's a whole new world. I have been there its really nice, all problems are little problems.

can't get 3g data an samsung e4gt

Hi guys,

I'm a noob here on this thread. I have to thank nevell and Viper for this wonderful thread. I had crappy sprint service with dropped calls and couldn't be happier switching to Page+. I watched nevell's videos and read through numerous websites. Was successful at flashing the phone to Page+ using CDMAWS demo, DFS demo and QPST.

Here's my problem, my phone shows up as 3G with EvDO revA:8. But speed is limited to no more than 16kB/s down. I'm told this is 1x speed. how do I get 3G without donor phone.

What I did so far:

CDMAWS demo: put in my MIN and phone number. Set to CDMA only mode. Roaming to automatic. clicked on CDMA2 and under RUim: NV only. Then to Other tab and added prl. At this point, I am able to make/receive calls and 1x data.

Went into QPST:

MiP tab: enabled both profile 0 and 1. NAI AND TETHERED NAI filled in: pwd vzw.

PPP config: under UM, and An, filled both ID and Tethered NAI for Um, and ID for AN. pwd: vzw.

write to phone and reboot.

Once reboot, started QPST and then EFS explorer. created DMU directory and then added 10.key.

Where do I go from here? Everytime I open up DFS and clicked on programming and Data, it'll cps error bad param for all five fields. clicking on M.ip, it;ll say DMU Mn auth failed and shared secret failed or something along that line.

What am I doing wrong? Of note, I changed the SPC to 000000 and even added the pwd to the pwd field. Please help!!! I've spent two days on this and can't figure it out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] funone46:
I have read this post and others until my eyes are blurry. Also have done a search but really have not found an answer.

Having a sprint flashed note 2 to PP is there any warning about flashing roms? What NOT to do, or is it best just to leave things stock. I do not want to break the flash.

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] catnapped:
Still not understanding why I can't get 3G indoors (home) on my S3 (Sprint). Have both it and my E4GT on my desk now, about 3 inches apart and about 3 feet from the window. Speedtest on both right now and here's what I get:

E4GT:

105 ms ping

0.99 mbps down

0.44 mbps up

connects to 3G with wifi disabled, does show EVDO on status screen in phone settings

52515 PRL

S3:

1241 ms ping

0.10 mbps down

0.14 mbps up

tries to connect to 3G with wifi disabled, drops immediately (~2-3 seconds) to 1x, shows 1xRTT on status screen in phone settings

3G WILL connect and hold outdoors, usually get ~500-1000 mbps down depending on location, indoors iffy depending on location (elsewhere)

59335 PRL...think I've tried 52515 and gotten similar result.

Respective keys are correct on both phones (rewritten numerous times into the S3 to make sure) so I'm at a loss what to try now.

from wat I can see u only gonna get 1x speed because u don't have the ha and aaa shared secrets for 3g
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] aktran9:
I guess my question is: how do you pull the aa and ha ss key. I realized that's what I need. Viper mentions at the beginning of the thread that the key can be pulled to obtain 3g without donor phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] afextwin:
That's the big secret...I know that when I flash a T-Bolt they pull key's by themselves, but everything else I have to use a donor for. There have been a few informative posts on exactly how the mobile authentication process works, but sadly the white paper posted is only that. It does not go into any details about how to get a phone to pull it's own 3g keys via OTAP, it is merely an outline of the process. There are quite a few breadcrumbs in this thread, enough that a savvy individual with a fair amount of intellect should be able to figure it out. Gusto 2 is a great donor, and a cheap i500 is my favorite donor of all time, it's just so dam fast on that powerwashed rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] PJnc284:
Best $18 I've spent. Used it to flash my GS3 and dropped my monthly payment from $100 on Verizon to less than $20/mo on Selectel and still get to keep the reliable coverage.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JLawL:
I just bought a Galaxy S4 from US Cellular (SCH-R970) yesterday from a friend. I do not know if the ESN is clean or not, but I don't think that part matters.

Anyway, I was going to pay someone $50 to flash my phone to Straight Talk since that is the best service where I live. I didn't feel comfortable doing it myself. Will the information posted here allow me to do this? Or will this method not work for Straight Talk?

Also, I currently am using a Galaxy Fascinate which has been flashed to Straight Talk, and wanted to use that phone number with the Galaxy S4, I know it's possible, but I have no idea how to do any of this.

If there is anyone who is capable / willing to help me get my phone flashed over and my number transferred I would happily send you some money as a thank you. The people who charge $50.00 require me to mail my phone to them, because they don't want to tell me how to do it myself since they obviously don't want me to learn how to do it -,-

Otherwise, if anyone has any other information that might help me do this, I would appreciate it. I am familiar with flashing ROMS and such, and I did follow a step by step guide to flash my Fascinate and clone the ESN for Straight Talk, but that was 2 years ago.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mrhunter13:
all u really have to do is write all the info from the fascinate to the s4 ...activate a different straight talk phone then reactive the phone the meid that's on the fascinate and there u have it ..u have to keep the fascinate off at all times or just zero out the esn on it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JLawL:
The way that you say it, I'm sure it is easy for some of you guys, but I honestly have no idea how to do any of that.

I already have an ESN number from a "donor phone" that I got from Straight Talk because I was planning to flash another Fascinate about a year ago, but I never got around to it. I have no idea how to clone the information from the Fascinate to the S4 though, and I would like the ability to give the Fascinate to a friend after, so I guess I would need to swap the ESN on that somehow too, or just zero it out as you said, assuming that it would still be able to be used once it got a new ESN from another donor phone.

I just don't feel comfortable screwing with all of this without someone helping me. I need my phone for work every day so I can't risk screwing something up and not having either of them work. And like I said, I'd gladly give some money for the help, I just don't want to mail my phone away and wait 2 weeks for someone to do it when I know that the only reason they won't help me over the phone or teamviewer is because they don't want me to learn how to do it myself.

Returning a flashed phone to its original carrier?

I have a Samsung L710 that will activate on a Sprint account but when you dial out it routes it through Verizon. So I am guessing it has been flashed to one of the prepaid carriers (Page Plus?). Is there a way to restore the Sprint settings? The only thing I have done so far is re-load the stock firmware through Odin. This post seems to be the closest to what I need and if I missed the answer I apologize.

Viper is the man :)

I bought a note 2 from ebay, and the guy had high ratings for flashing, but the speed test was horrible. Ping was at 857ms, upload was .14mbps and download was .13mbps.

So I ask viper to reflash it since he did such a GREAT job on an HTC evo 4lte just days ago.

Here are the results after his flash

Viper is my only flasher I will use from now on. Super results. Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hllywd:
OK you peaked my curiosity. What do you mean by "not properly"?

I Love The Smell Of Burnt Rubber Anytime
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Viper32:
No way to use it unless you clone another USSC phones ESN to it.

USSC will not allow a ESN off a Sprint Phone on their system.

It will never get 4G for sure.

**And we all know what I think about the cloning of ESN's**

So i have a Sprint S4 flashed to Page+ (Thanks Viper!). I activated it with a new number so i could test it out before i made up my mind (T-Mobile sucks in my area!, Page+ 3G is faster than T-Mobile's 4G in my area.). So now my question is when i port my number into Page+, will my Long AAA key change? Will i have to reflash the phone to get data working properly again?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gpz1100:
^^Phone will require a reflash if there's a number change. A port in is a number change :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] catnapped:
Keep in mind that even if you do flash a phone over to PP, it'll still say "Sprint" under the about phone section. There's something in the rom that has to be changed if you want it to say "Verizon" or "Pageplus" (or whatever).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DrLipschitz:
can anyone recommend to me a good 4.2 or (preferably) 4.3 rom for my sprint gs3 flashed to PP? Running rooted stock right now. Also, from what I've gathered, I shouldn't have to worry about this, but as long as I follow rom flashing instructions (and don't factory reset?) I shouldn't lose my flash? And if for some reason I did lose my flash, would a system backup restore my it? Thanks.

I am really interested to get this eri.xml to work but so far no luck hope someone can shed some light?

I have sprint sg4 and currently on stock rom. I would like to change my provider text to Page Plus Cellular

But honestly I don't even see how that's possible.

I read another tutorial where user mods eri.xml of Verizon wireless. and uses a hex edit to input new text over

the "Verizon wireless" text

link to tutorial is here

: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-hacks/57078-how-edit-eri-xml.html

Anyway he states you only have the 16 digets to work with in my case sense I'm on the sprint rom I only have 5 Letters "Sprint"

I tried to use the tutorial and ended up soft bricking the phone had to resore in twrp.

can anyone help me get Page Plus Cellular in my dropdown?
