I just tried 778 and it didn't work for me. I can get a lot of these to work, but not most of the unverified ones. Do I need to go to stock to get them to work? I figured if a few of them would work most of them would.
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
I just updated the post. It now accurately displays my results. I am going to flash a stock rooted rom and try the unverified ones again and see what results I get. It is being reported that some work only on stock. It's weird that I have problems with so many of them, but others I do not.

Wrong thread lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
Ok, well I need to send my brother a note cause he wrote the app. Let me make sure hes okay with me sending this out into the open. If so, I'll post it up with some other information that I have.

Hang tight.

Maybe, but these codes are specific to Sprint. Verizon does have some codes I think but I don't know what they are. That said, if you figure out their codes there is no reason we couldn't use the app I have to bypass the dialer and call them. Just realize these codes will likely not work.

Hope that helped...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Just_s:
I would definitely like to give that a go. Flashing back to sense every time I want to access the menus is a real PIA.

Thanks for answering webs05, some get upset and say wrong thread(technically it is) but I still have my EVO and TB right now. You've been one of the most helpful on these forums and we really appreciate your hard work.

[EVO 4G Android Development] bjones8515:
EPST not working on any of the ported sense 3.5 roms. I wish I knew what was lacking in these to allow the ## codes to work. Maybe bc they are gsm based and not CDMA supported. Anyone have any thoughts, answers?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SynisterWolf:
you are correct. the rom needs to be CDMA based to support the ## codes. not only do you need the epst.apk but you need the dialer as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bjones8515:
Thanks for the reply. Yea I have an EPST that actually worked with Newtoroots XL beta 1. As well as a few more epst apks. Now, after pushing the epst, it "initializes". That's it, Nothing more. I don't get it. I'm gonna try a new dialer apk! Thanks for ur input. I appreciate it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SynisterWolf:
yeah the sense dialer knows to point to EPST.apk thats why when you try to just put the EPST.apk on CM7 and dial it has no clue what you are doing. lol Thats how i found out.

epst flavors

On the EPST codes I am beginning to wonder how the information is compiled

example:

I have family plan with 3 phones all with different active numbers all sprint all stock rom

and one phone on verzion stock rom

all have qualcomm chip set

all have android platform

3 phones are samsung

1 phone HTC

some EPST codes work and some do not

so i a wondering are EPST codes carrier based

or chip set version based

thanks

[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
So it seems that the top list of codes work fairly universally and the bottom list, unverified codes, work sporadically or only with stock roms and dialers.

I'm going to flash a rooted stock tonight and try the unverified codes. I'll report back my findings. I didn't get a chance to last night cause it took forever to download the rom. :mad:
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
Interesting... would you mind testing a few of the other *# codes and let me know if any of them work for you? Looks like I need to test on Cyanogen's roms too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] adelaney:
They won't work on cyanogen rom. I had to swap numbers, was on the phone with sprint forever. Finally I figured it out. Restored to damage, used code to change number, the flashed back to cm6.
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
So you had issues on 2.2 too? That is my experience as well, and the experience of others. Which specific code didn't work for you? Also were you using the same version of CM6 as the person above?
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
Just updated the list again. I was only able to get one more working. I tried stock rooted, PCIMG from witslack's starting over (I haven't tried Toasts' yet cause I'm at work and do not have it downloaded), and CM6. CM6 was the only one that got me another code. Once I try Toasts' PCIMG I will udpate again.

Anyone else?

I've not heard of that issue, and if that is in fact the case that would be something I would not be able to solve unless I worked for Sprint. Are you sure you are entering in your code correctly? I am downloading 2.2 and will try in a bit.

They're missing the EPST apk, and EPST only "listens" for codes from the Sense dialer. Simple as that.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Tilde88:
If you haven't found a way to get full epst (##778) then read this...

.com.google.android.epst (a process/service) is missing from every rom to date... This can only be found in the utmost original shipped rom... So be ready to lose full root. You HAVE to flash the .1 RUU, NOT .6 or 1.47, no the rooted ship rom doesn't have it... However the nand unlock (engineering pceng#.zip) has them... Choose your poison as it flashes a radio...and the 1.34 preferred roaming index (PRI for those who don't know changes very little... Mostly QPST options which can only be accessed through a pc with qpst anyways... So now that everyone knows what it is, STOP TALKING ABOUT IT. and no its not primary rate whatever that noob said on ppcgeeks... He got that from wikipedia and its about ISDN connections that were around since 56k).

Anyways, load up the shipped RUU, do the one shot root from unrevoked1(archived) load up titanium backup, backup epst2.1 ...not done yet...you still gotta get .com.google.android.epst which may or may not show up in titanium, if not find it in a folder in /system (maybe framework). Add to a rom,and finally restore epst 2.1

Your all welcome... And If I get a single pri question ever again,,, Im gonna tell my mom on you poopieheads....lmao
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tilde88:
WRONG...

Epst is in there,but not the direct service (thats why we can do some ##s). We cant directly access epst, but we can do its subscript branches like ##data#
[EVO 4G Android Development] beastmods:
could you host those files for us so we could just dl and push to our phones?

or anyone? this has been the only pain in the ass since 2.2
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tilde88:
um... do you not read... ever since anything past .651.1 shipped rom has broken EPST...

sigh... fine im working on it now...

so i tried to get the two files you talked about and put them on cm6 and fresh 3.0beta2

the epst file you get from titanium says epst 2.1...it would not restore it on 2.2

so i tried to just take the folder from /data/data and put it on fresh 3.0

got bootloop as soon as i tried to unlock the phone from lock screen.

Unresponsive keyboard

I just joined up because I figured out the unresponsive keyboard issue when trying to enter a password (such as when selecting "edit" after trying ##3282#). When the keyboard for the password entry comes up, a small semi-transparent pop up comes up in the middle of the screen saying you can use your phone's back button to go back. That message needs to be dismissed (by clicking on the x), after that the keyboard will have focus.

[EVO 4G Android Development] FastRX8:
@webs05

Just curious, you mention that there are several that you have confirmed working.

How are they working? Is there some kind of app that you're developing?

I read the thread but I didn't see anything mention how you were doing this.

I assume that whatever it is that's allowing you to dial the ## codes it the thing

your working on that you will release eventually right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
All tested with stock 2.1 rooted and DC 3.2.3. The ones listed as working worked under those conditions. I then proceeded to try a few engineering builds and other ROMs, but never was able to add anymore as "working" to my list. Under 2.2 that list shrinks significantly. Thus the fix I am attempting to work on.
[EVO 4G Android Development] johncjenc:
I figured out the epst issue. ##775# works on my fresh 3.1. I copied the epst. Apk from fresh 1 to the sd card restored 3.1 using rom manger then installed the . Apk i copied into froyo. Viola. Prl change on the fly in froyo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] johncjenc:
Confirmed working on my buddy's rooted evo as well. Im betting it will work for most everyone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cpiman:
Can we get some more details on how to do this? That would be great. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] johncjenc:
OK. Works like this. I used my nandroid copy of android 2.1 to obtain a copy of epst from it. I copied it to my sd card so it would save while i restored my nandroid copy of android 2.2. (Both fresh roms). After restoring back into froyo i installed the saved epst from my sd card, then replaced the froyo epst in system/ app with the copy on the sd card.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Just_s:
This doesn't quite make sense to me. When I try to install the EPST apk taken from an unzipped Fresh 1.0, it says "Application not installed". When I attempt to replace the EPST file in my system\apps folder it doesn't allow it.

Also why would you "install" the apk and then have to move it into the system\app folder? Am I missing something?
[EVO 4G Android Development] johncjenc:
Mine installed fine. And i used root explorer to make system/ app rw. You could also push w adb.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigrushdog:
I used the same method. confirmed working. Using vz right now and it's smoking. Nice to have my prl's back. Great job!

[EVO 4G Android Development] johncjenc:
I think the problem w cm might be the dialer. This hack never worked w third party apps like dialer one. Might be a way to use the stock dialer imported into cm. Just my two cents.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lyvewire:
Was curious. Are you guys rooting your phones after the official Sprint update?The reason I'm asking is because I keep hearing theres not a good fast rooting method for the official "Sprint" froyo? I had a good PRL that I was forcing roam on before I updated to Froyo. Been looking thru every site possible to break this ##775# code but couldnt find anything. I'm guessing I'm going to need to root this phone 1st to jump in?
[EVO 4G Android Development] johncjenc:
Using my method you definitely need root access. If you don't want to root try to get a copy of epst 2.1 and try to use an . apk installer that doesn't require root to install it. Then push that file to system/ app using adb. Good luck.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aporon:
Here it is..

View attachment EPST.apk
[EVO 4G Android Development] johncjenc:
And lyvewire if i understand your situation correctly you have the official sprint froyo release installed and were not ever rooted? If this is the case there is no root exploit for stock release froyo currently. Check some of the other posts. There are some very talented ppl working on it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lyvewire:
Thats correct, I was never rooted prior to the update. (sure as hell wish I would have NOW). This site seems always seems to be 1st when it comes to updates on these hacks so be watching these forums.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Six-Deuce:
So it seems either method requrires a rooted phone to get it done. Which means until someone figures that out for 2.2 those without rooted phones wont be able to get this fix. I tried using different apk installers through the phone and it wouldn't work, tried using ADB to push the file and it wouldn't work either. Won't let me even uninstall the old one. everytime I try it says failure. Oh well guess I'm stuck till rooting is a posibility.
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
Need Original EPST apk

Yes from my experience rooting would be a must since this app resides in /system. Keep hunting around though, a fix may pop up. I'm still working on the stuff I originally was, it is just slow going.

In other news, does anyone have a backup copy of their original EPST apk they could send me or post a link to?

Hmmm, yeah. I cannot get this to work on CM6 either. I tried the standard dialer and Dialer One. I r/wed system/app and installed. Also tried copying to that location. And then tried installing from system/app. Rebooted between each and no go. :(
