I have a question.. This person on CL that I'm talking to is selling 2 Moto X from Ntelos. Now from what I know its the same exact model has the Sprint Moto X. So I'm thinking I can just flash them both to Page Plus sense its the same as the Sprint model. Now before I flashed my current Sprint Moto X that I was going to get remote flashed by some website before I knew it was possible for me to do myself. I asked the guy that was going to remote flash my Sprint Moto X will he also be able to flash the Ntelos Moto X. He said no. I said why not, he told they can't do that model, I then told him its the same model as the Sprint he still told me no. So I left it has that. Then I went back as again another day to the website and asked will they be able to flash my Moto X to Page Plus, he asked me for the model number. I gave it to him and he said yes he could flash it and told me it's the Sprint version. I did not tell him it was Ntelos this time though.

I'm thinking it can be flashed and that they just don't support flashing from Ntelos but they do support flashing to Ntelos.

For only $100 for 2 Moto X is not bad if I can just flash them or Sim unlock them. That's a hell of a deal.
[Moto X General] ac2014:
Maybe flash the sprint firmware to it
[Moto X General] reds28heem:
That's what I was thinking. Just flash a sprint ROM or firmware to it.
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
A "HELL OF A DEAL" is a HUGE understatement.

ESPECIALLY considering that I HAVE CRACKED THE SIM-LOCK on these phones!!!!! http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/general/guide-success-sim-unlock-sprint-xt1056-t2825155

This means you can also use them on GSM!

Enjoy. If you weren't already buying them, I would snatch them up in a heartbeat!!!! :good:
[Moto X General] reds28heem:
Yeah that's what I was saying. That's to good to pass up. I just was trying to find out if I could use them on another network before I brought them. It must be a seller that's not used to selling phones or knows nothing about them,if he's selling both for only $50 I was a little skeptical because they was so cheap. I figure they had cracked screens or bad ESN or something. The guy sent pics and gave me the ESN everything checked out right.
[Moto X General] reds28heem:
I want to port my boost number to my moto x on page plus, im aware that i will lose my current plan ,the free $12 plan promotion they have. I know i will have to port in the new number once its transferred to page plus. Will i just start from Step 10 threw Step 12 and leave the data settings alone sense its working?
[Moto X General] ac2014:
It'll probably not work since it's programmed on the old number.

The main thing you have to program is the data. If you changed the spc code to 000000 then dial *228 n then program the data. Probably only step 14. And 15.
[Moto X General] reds28heem:
ok i understand. im doing everything i originally did, just with the new ported number i got. then after i do that i just dial the 228 to program the phone
[Moto X General] ac2014:
Has anyone tried to flash the Verizon ROM to see it will work?
[Moto X General] dloopy:
Does this work for us cellular moto x too?
[Moto X General] reds28heem:
How come i can get 3g on my flashed moto x without a donor phone but cant get 3g on my sprint galaxy s3 without a donor phone
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Because if you have the DMU Key (10.key), the mobile handset can initiate a key-exchange with the network itself.
[Moto X General] reds28heem:
So the same key that works with the moto x won't work with flashing other sprint phones.
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Yeah...it will. Assuming you are able to open the EFS and make a folder called "DMU", and place the 10.key in that folder, it should work. Probably, the phone you are referring to (GS3?) can't have it's EFS opened....if it can, I don't see why this wouldn't work with no donor phone. The 10.key is ONLY for Verizon and their MVNOs (PagePlus). It will not work on any other carriers as they do not use DMU mobile keys.

For instance, Sprint MVNOs (Boost, Virgin Mobile, etc.) will always require a donor phone because they use OMADM for data profiles.

What carrier are you even referring to?
[Moto X General] reds28heem:
I was trying to flash a Sprint GS3 to Page Plus, but i keep reading that it requires a donor phone, but then I read that it can be done without a donor. Also if i do need a donor phone then what phone do i get to act as the donor and does it have to be activated,
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Using a donor phone requires changing the ESN. That isn't kosher to talk about on XDA and violates the rules. Hopefully you are able to use the DMU key with no donor, otherwise you need to head over to Howard Forums, where ESN changing discussions are OK. Good Luck.
[Moto X General] BobPhone:
Flash Verizon ROM?

Since the Boost Moto G can be flashed to the stock Verizon ROM after being bootloader unlocked, and the Sprint X can be bootloader unlocked, can we flash the Verizon stock ROM on the Moto X and get activated on PPC?

Advantages would be:

1. Stock MMS app works/ no screwing around.

2. PRL doesn't need to be a "hacked version" no not show ROAMING, so updates are easier to get as towers get changed in the future.

3. Can use OTA updates (Moto G takes the 4.4.2 --> 4.4.4 OTA ok)

Disadvantages:

1. Verizon BLOAT more than Sprint?

2. ????
[Moto X General] ac2014:
Stock MMS can wort by going to ##DATA# /MMS. And. Change the settings there. You'll need the sim card or else the settings won't save
[Moto X General] BobPhone:
No Data!!!

Not even getting 1x, so can't get the 3g keys.

I have the CDMAWS3.5-whiterabbit thing, so the HRD NA Long stays now.

I flashed back to stock Sptrint 4.4.2 Rom and tried manually entering flash info for calls/texts, rather than setting PRL and doing OTA *228 to get the voice activated. No difference, did the OTA a second time after reflashed phone to stock and no data either...

I Am thinking it is on the Mobile IP page. I don;t completely understand the "set the second profile" comments. DO you mean click the TOP radio button and set the information to match the screen shot, then click the second radio button down and do the same thing? My top radio button always has a red circle with line, rather than green and check mark.

Questions:

-I have a Speint SIM in the phone from the last user. Bought it used. Do I need a blank?

-On the DATA tab, when set all the PWD fields to vzw, is the check mark by each field suppose to be clicked? I didn't click then jus the one at the bottom which is defaulted to clicked for AUTHENTICATION.

-On mobile IP, I have 2 profiles not 6 like the screen shot? Bad?

-On mobile IP, What do I set ACTIVE PROFILE to 1? Even though the top, 1st profile is red with line in circle?

- On mobile IP, Yhe HA SS /AAA SS that shows "vzw" on screen shot won't hold that. I set it and READ and that field is blank. Bad?

Thanks in advance, this is kicking me in the butt.

[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Call Page plus and ask them if data is provisioned. Ask for a "DMU" data reset.

The PWD fields are WRITE-ONLY. You can not read them - this is normal.

Did you copy the 10.key (DMU Key) file to the DMU folder? This is necessary to provision 3G...you didn't mention whether or not you did that.

Always realize that data connectivity problems can be on the carrier side too. I don't know how many times I've seen people struggle when there was nothing wrong and they just needed to call the carrier and ask to have data provisioned.
[Moto X General] BobPhone:
THANKS for the advice!

1. - Ok on the PWD fields, will ignore them from now on.

2. This number was working fine on a PPC with a Moto G that I then swapped the "esn" from to this phone. Will call and ask for a DMU reset, but suspicious, but at this point will try anything.

3. I used QSP to get into the file system of the phone and create the DMU folder. Then I dragged the 10.key (after extracting from the .zip) to the new folder. QSP did a copying thing and now when I leave the folder and come back, the 10.key file is there, so should be present.

4. I am also using a PRL from Snoop1979 that I found elswhere. It is a newer PPC PRL modifiled for Sprint phones. When on the PRL, no roaming signal, so should be good. Just wanted to point this out, as it is the only thing that I can think about that is different.

So here is what I have done:

1. Unlocked bootloader.

2. Flashed back to stock Sprint Rom 4.4.2.

3. Boot up and go to ##DIAG# and enable (Never seems to ask for SPC or MSL when do that now, but still enabled modem like BootPTools so I think OK)

4. Use DFS, manual provision voice/text, using SID, MDN, and MIN from PPC and what I had the time I did a *228. They matched. Pushed a PRL. Reboot

5. Send text, do call work fine.

6. DFS, set DATA tab as shown in the post a few back.

7. DFS, set Mobile IP tab as shown in post a few back. Reboot. No data.

8. Used QSP to place 10.key /DMU/10.key on phone. Reboot

9. The HDR AN LONG field on DATA tab wouldn't stick, kept going back to the ... [MENTION=218907]sprint[/MENTION]......, so I used CDMAWS3.9 to flash the NV with the "write rabit" radio change back on page 9.

10. Didn't even have to re-enter the HRD AN LONG field into DFS DATA tab, it was my number@vzw3g.com already.

12. No data. Tried doing these steps multiple times, setting11. DFS to Offline-D-reading-writing-set to Offline-A. No Data.

12. Check the MOBILE IP tab, Under Mobile IP MAIN SETTINGS, Set to PrefMobileIP, but checked SimpleIP and MobileIP, for a sprint entry like talked about on pages 10-11. No help.

13. The only difference I can see is on the MOBILE IP tab, the up/down radio buttons on the screen shot we are to match have the top button selected and GREEN, with the second down button also green. I ONLY have the second down button green. I have tried selecting that one and doing a WRITE, no help. I enter the data with both button selected, one at a time, and press Write Current Profile Settings, but the top button never goes green. I have tried selecting the second radio button and doing the write on the bottom left, No help. Also, I only have 2 for the "Number Of Profiles". The screen shot we are to follow has 6.

14. Came here and posted for assistance.

15. help please.
[Moto X General] ac2014:
Try changing the domestic roaming settings under settings/more/mobile networks/CDMA roaming settings. Check domestic data. This should do the magic
[Moto X General] BobPhone:
One more thing

I WAS able to get both profiles radio buttons to be green in MobileIP tab of DFS. Closed DFS, Opened QPST Config and got phone, then from there opened PHONE PROVISIONING.

Ended up in a program that was kind of like a very tabbed version of DFS. On the top went over to M.IP and saw the 2 profiles, and only the second was ENABLED. Clicked EDIT on the first and changed to ENABLED. Rebooted and went into DFS. Now both profiles are GREEN with checks in them, so I selected the first like the screen shot.

No data yet......

Will do DMU reset with PPC next.

Then check Domesice Data. May have turned it on, but don't remember if did after flashed back to stock this last time.

BobPhone
[Moto X General] ac2014:
This is a setting on the phone. Not a program on computer
[Moto X General] BobPhone:
Running out of things to try.

Thanks, checked and Domestic Data was already turned on in the phone.

Only thing I can think left is to try a new SIM card. Phone was used and came with a Sprint SIM. I have a new, unused Verizon SIM I can try.

What are others doing for the SIM card? Using one that came, removing, or using a new one?

Have to have a solution by tomorrow night, as the owner goes back to college then. May have to put back on that Moto G.

Thanks
[Moto X General] ac2014:
I'm using it without any sim works fine

Are you getting any error massage on the phone?
[Moto X General] BobPhone:
Nope no errors. just when pulled SIM with phone powered up, said a SIM is required. Will power off, pull SIM and boot up.
[Moto X General] ac2014:
Dono what else to think maybe try the PRL from the OP.
[Moto X General] tvike60:
I would bet that your trouble is not with the DFS settings, but your phone settings. Do a ##data# and make sure all the settings are correct.
[Moto X General] BobPhone:
ok, new angle to look at, I like it....

What settings in that am I suppose to look at? I would think the complete flash/erase would have set back to default. Looking for any pointers..

(Phone is not with me at work right now.)
[Moto X General] tvike60:
Unfortunately, the phone is now with my daughter in college. I used info from some of the posts on flashing a Sprint Galaxy S3 to Page Plus. Make sure the EVDO settings have been enabled. I wish I had the phone here to look at. Maybe someone else looking at this could send screenshots of their phone settings.
[Moto X General] BobPhone:
Going back to Moto G

Son going back to college tomorrow. Running out of time, needs phone, so I moved number back to Moto G. Will be sending X back and getting a Verizon X once 4G becomes available on PPC. (Probably a better choice, other than getting Root is harder, as once 4G comes on-line from PPC, New Sprint phones probably can't be moved over. So if going to Android 5.0 requires any funky stuff like an ESN reset, the phone gets kicked off PPC at that point.)
[Moto X General] ac2014:
I just flashed another phone, it had a used sprint sim card data didn't work till I removed the sim. So if you have a used sim you should remove it, a new 1 should be OK
[Moto X General] BobPhone:
WHAT THE !!!!!

I got a new number from PPC, (Son had old number on Moto G now) I re-did everything, and used existing USED Sprint SIM, as I didn't see the above post until later. No data AT FIRST! Let phone sit and after 1.5 hours 3G showed up! Of course I didn't know right away and phone used $1.86 out of the free $2 that comes with a new number doing background updates...

But It WORKED!

I used up the rest of the $2 checking it out and it worked fine, other than after a reboot, phone would be on CMDA-eHPDR for about 3 minutes with no data, then automatically switch to CDMA-EVDO and 3g would work.

I am still sending phone back.

- Son gone to school and has working Moto G so don't NEED this right now.

- Don't really know why it started working. If have problem, will it start again?

- With 4G coming to PPC "soon" or by end of year, as rumored, PPC will probably not be able to activate non-Verizon phones. Sure this one would be grandfathered in, but if have to do an ESN reset for some reason, grandfathering is lost?

-When Android 'L' comes out, a Verizon X should get it and activate on PPC. What will happen to this flash when 'L' comes out.

At this point, (and the rumors are true this time) I am waiting until I can just buy a used Verizon X and simply activate it on PPC. That will be nice...

BobPhone
[Moto X General] CHRIS_HAX:
yo

No need for DMU key...will get 3g data as long as HA & AAA are placed in the correct spots:p
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Yeah, I'm well aware of that. But you don't get the HA & AAA unless you use a donor phone. This tutorial is for programming *without* *228, and *without* a donor phone.

The only way to provision 3G without either a donor phone OR *228 is with the DMU key.

Question on update

Will the new kit kat update break the flash? Anyone tried it yet? Its my wifes phone and I dont want to mess it up. I will never hear the end of it. haha
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
It won't break the flash, but it WILL prevent "SPCutility" from working. Not a big deal since you should have already changed the SPC to "000000".

But the phone will continue to work fine on PP. Nothing to worry about really.
[Moto X General] Ephemera:
Would there be any way for me to flash the phone without the SPC?
[Moto X General] ac2014:
It's official! We're very excited to announce*that the much-anticipated 4G LTE network is coming to Page Plus Cellular in October!*

We just wanted to officially let you know this exciting news that has been rumored for quite some time.

We don't have all the specific details just yet to share with you, but as new information becomes available we'll let you know via additional emails and training materials.

Please don't call the dealer relations team with questions about 4G LTE, as the internal training materials are still being developed, and our CSRs will not have the answers to your questions.

Stay tuned to your email and the dealer portal for more details as they become available.

We can share this with you now:

With the exception of*The 12*plan, all other monthly plans will be available for 4G devices, at 4G LTE data speeds, with no increase in the monthly plan prices. 3G service will also still be available for all plans. Upon device activation, our system will detect the device type and assign it to 3G or 4G service accordingly.4G LTE SIM cards will be Page Plus specific. They will be available through your Master Agent in October.

Again, additional details will be announced soon - we just wanted to share the good news with you, our valued dealers, first.
[Moto X General] iamrico00:
If this is the case - any hope to re-flash the sprint Moto x to page plus WITH LTE capability? Or is the bands just not supported? Any band unlocking possible? Thanks,

Rico
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
The Sprint Moto X can not support LTE on PagePlus / Verizon. Sprint uses LTE on band 25 (1900mhz). Vzw uses AWS band and 700mhz.

You'll never get PagePlus 4g on a *sprint* Moto X. It is possible that you could put the *verizon* X on PP - if they will allow it.

newer OS and ROMs

im not asking for in depth troubleshooting but will this process work on a 4.4.4 ROM such as PACman? would that alter any of the settings that need to be changed or how to access them?
[Moto X General] Nicene Nerd:
It cannot work on most AOSP ROMs because they won't let you into diag mode. Stock ROM is required. That said, getting your MSL is impossible on stock 4.4.4. You have to be using stock 4.4.2 at highest to get your MSL. Note that after successful flashing, you can use any ROM you want.
[Moto X General] thegreatgonzo19:
i have gotten to unlocked bootloader rooted stock and finished the flash, now i have talk and text but no data and i get error code 67: mobile node failed authentication. i remember seeing on step 14 DFS couldnt change a few of my settings and after i tried to write with an error something like BAD PARAM and when i clicked read again one of the fields switched back to previousownersinfo@sprint.com where the rest stayed with myinfo@vzw3g.com. i can go back through the process for more specifics if necessary. is this a red flag that i did something wrong? also thanks for the tip about flashing a ROM AFTER i flash to PPC.

EDIT:

i went through the process again and just read and rewrote the data over a few times until more of it stuck and tada i got 3g to work!

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksekhar:
Hello existing smartband owners/users,

Those who received Smart Band and are using it already, can you guys please let me know if it is good and worth getting one?

My Z2 comes with only noise cancelling headphones and no band. I like the concept of Smart Band but only disappointment is it is lacking display. I use Fitbit Force today and it is great. Now wondering if I should switch to SmartBand as I'll get Z2.

Questions:

1. Is Smart Band worth getting?

2. If 1st question is hard to answer, just tell me if you are extremely disappointed or extremely pleased with it as it is today in a scale of 1 to 5 with 1 being lowest.

3. If you use Fitbit (any wearable for that matter), do you know if Lifelog works with other wearables?

4. Does Smart Band recognise that you are running/cycling/boxing/swimming without having to tell/update it?

Thanks in advance.

S
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksekhar:
Any reply here? At least how is SmartBand? Is it good, bad or it plays no role or whatever? Thanks.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benengyj:
1. Got it for free so I can't judge this.

2. Haven't used mine for long since I'm not using my Z2 as my daily phone yet. Seems to be pretty cool with notification features (seems like other apps can notify through it too). Build quality is good compared to my Fitbit Force, the band feels more flexible and the clasp feels more solid. Lifelog app leaves an annoying icon in the notification bar that I only managed to get rid of by disabling notifications from Android app settings.

3. As above. I have a Fitbit Force that works well. The SmartBand seems to track far fewer steps compared to it for some reason.

4. Not sure but the app seems to track all kinds of activities like reading, running, walking, etc. Might be based on app usage tracking though.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ayumiin:
1. For me, I feel it's too soon to tell. So far, it hasn't been life-changing but I'm enjoying it in my life.

2. Right now, I'd give it a solid 3. The band requires a lot on the app and it's not fully baked yet so I'm looking forward to future updates. One thing I was impressed about is the ability to update the firmware of the band itself so things that are lacking can eventually be improved in the future. Possibly my favorite feature is the vibrating for notifications. It's nowhere near perfect. Sometimes the band is vibrating for a long long time for certain apps' notifications or it notifies for silly little things. A little annoying but I have yet to miss a notification with the band. And I gotta say the band itself is mad comfortable. Had a bout with contact dermatitis but loosening it has cleared up that problem.

3. Dunno this one.

4. So far it only recognizes walking and running. It does it based on your stride and how fast you're moving and stuff. It's highly useless for me since most of my exercising is dancing. I take the measurements with a grain of salt. The app's supposed to update in the future with more tiles and stuff so we'll see.

Other notables, the smart wakeup is fun. Until you wake up so pleasantly only to see there's 10 minutes until your alarm goes off. I love/don't love this. The band is comfy but as a woman, I'm annoyed with the default black band and I'm eagerly awaiting the colored bands as well as some of the more fashionable concept bands. I hope they see the light of day otherwise I will have to fashion something of my own. The bookmark feature is something I will rarely use. As well as the weird tap to control thing. It's absolutely awkward to use.

And I think that's about all my impressions. And with none of the polish.
