ATTN ROM makers: can you remove *2 from speeddial please - Hero CDMA General

Not sure why Sprint wants to replace the all-time most commonly/important number on the keypad most often used for speeddial with their own *2 customer service number.. as if it isn't short enough already. And the fact that it can't be replaced or deleted is irritating.
DamageControl v1.0 was great in that it didnt have the number in there.
DC v2.05 has it. Can it be removed at the system level??
Thanks.

That's dictated by the service, not by the phone....
*edit..
Damagecontrol was based off the wrong service settings, so it didn't dial predicated by network..

I find that hard to believe. And if true then these "service settings" should be able to be modified to remove just that speed dial entry.

Well .....................................................................................................................
Maybe you need to expand your reasoning, nobody else said anything........
And I actually know that it's true, so believe what you want.. lol

Service setting being the PRI... Which is the network indicator...
If the phone was dialing verizon tower, based off the incorrect PRI, which it was, would not get the service *redirect* to customer service through sprint...
It is not a speed dial.... It is built into sprint's network...
And edit* because I know its coming....
It was still built off of the Verizon base... The PRI was not the only thing in DamageControl different...

Not what you were talking about, but a strange thing just happened. I have been tweaking with all the png's in HtcDialer.apk and Phone.apk....Flashed to phone and as I was looking through everything...IT DIALED *2... Kinda Freaky...

Are you the same guy that complained about this months ago on bout ever Hero forum?
You want your wife to be # 2 right and it is UNTHINKABLE that she has to be speed dial 3?

*2 is a Sprint defined feature code used by dialing "*" then "2" then "Call". Speed dial 2 is available and not interfered with by *2, and is used by long pressing "2". What's the problem?
edit: ah, now I see, *2 is programmed in speed dial position 2 and positions 1 and 2 cannot be re-programmed through the menus provided ... so the manual says you can program 9 speed dial entries, but as it stands, you can only program 7 entries (3 thru 9) - ok, my bad!

Not true. I am on Cellular South and I am using my ROM (BitterSweet) that is based off DamageControl V2.05 WITH the Cellular South PRI, and I too have this as speeddial 2. Not only that, it even says "Sprint Customer Service" when I dial it. So no, it is NOT PRI based

PRI is a ISDN indicator for a voice T1 with 23 channels.. It is what sets up every call you make...Every call made from your phone, goes through a PRI gateway. It leads the caller Id and call through the network to your device and is what provides Caller ID and is network specific.. Without the correct PRI you cannot correctly dial into any network.. ****KEY WORD-correctly***
Just because you cook roms, doesn't mean you know everything little one...
The reason you don't have it on damage control is because it is a verizon rom, based off what they need for calls... It is built into Sprint because it is a Sprint Phone.. Go change something in the radio, you might be able to get it off..
But again.. please believe what you want...

This guys right.. I was thinking way too far into what the OP asked..It didn't even dawn on me until I read this post that he just wants his 2 key to dial.. Not change it in the way I thought he was asking... So all my posts are wrong.. But I'm leaving them up there, just because I figure someone in all the glory of the recent PRI issues would like to know..
But the part about the DC not having it is right..
That speed dial is hard coded somewhere, so it couldn't be that hard to change.. Unzip a rom and have a look. Look for anything in the phone or dialer that has a key structure and see if you can find it...

Relax Tipharet, you're thinking about me from months back when I asked here and on the GSM hero forum (made sense then because we just found root).
It is obviously an annoying "feature" for many.
That said, I tried pushing the HtcDialer.apk from the eris leak to fresh 2.0d, but it left me with a phone with no dialer. I definitely missed a needed step to get it right, but that is the extent of my skills. I think that this will work if someone else can give it a go.

Hey not sure if I am just digging up what you all already know, but all you have to do is flash another HtcDialer.apk from any other carrier besides sprint.
I updated JsChaiSurf's black dialer with the CS dialer, so you don't have to mess with *2 being sprint's b1atch.
get it here:http://www.mediafire.com/?9duxygzh77c4f59

I did not know this!
Thank YOU, awesome work!

cant dial numbers that start with +1

hi, recently after a rom change i am unable to call numbers starting with +1 but when i try to edit them and remove the +1 and try the call it works.. what could be wrong.. i tired to change the radio version and also played different rom s available but nothing seem to solve this issue... can some one help me with this pleasee
I'm not sure if this is the answer...but who is your carrier? Cingular/ATT has a International Dialing addon to your plan. Is it possible that this got removed somehow? If that isn't added you can't call Internationally..
I dunno though..just a guess.
I'm running Black Satin and +1...etc works fine for me.
my provider is rogers, toronto and i read that many others in the forum are not having any problem with rogers.. so i guess it must be my handset
... and How do You change the + International Dialing Code?
I have no troubles using the + dialing code, however, I travel constantly and find that many countries (Thailand, Australia, etc..) have competing companies for international dialing. Is there a way to change what the "+" means? Example: In Thailand the use of the "+" preceding the country code automatically replaces it with "001" which is the high priced CAT service. If I go in and change the "+" to "009" I save heaps of money on each call. How can I change this temporarily so when I leave here, I don't have to go back and once again replace the 009 with + ??? Any Ideas? Thanks!
well if ur with rogers you have no need to dail +1
if its long distance it will auto dail for you
mazdaspeed.. the problem is not that i want to use the +1 but many of my saved contacts have +1 before their no.
the best eg is when i save a new number from an incoming call it will have +1 before the no. and it saves like that..so the next time i save a no. i will have to edit it..
i found 1 more thig more interesting.... this +1 issue is only with calls that i make to local phones i mean in toronto and not to calls to usa
well i just tested on my phone and it works fine im using Shaps 3.54b

HTC_SmartDialer2.5

I'm not sure if anyone has ever used HTC_SmartDialer2.5 or not, but it is a really handy dialer.
For those of you who used PalmOS, you probably miss the nice quick dial feature in the phone app. You could see your recent calls just by pressing one button, and it was smart enough not to show the same number more than once. You could then redial any of your recently dialed numbers easily with one hand. With the standard dialer in WM6, you'd have to go in the history, and ALL calls (showed the same number more than once) would be listed, and you'd have to sort through them.
Well, this dialer makes it really easy to do this. You'd have to try it to see what I'm talking about.
Anyway, the problem is, is it was made for GSM - so there's some bugs.
1st, the EVDO data arrows always show active (common bug for GSM dialers)
2nd, the ## codes don't work (common bug for GSM dialers)
I'm going to include the dialer for you guys to try, I'm sure you'll like it a lot. But if one of you savvy programmers could figure out how to make those EVDO data arrows show dormant correctly, this thing would be perfect.
Thanks!
Since the dialer was made for the GSM platform, 911 calling WILL NOT operate normally if at all.
I tried various dialers...As I read deeper into it I learned that the dialers I was trying were not designed for the CDMA platform and that 911 features were disabled. Needless to say, I hard reset my device back to factory defaults because not having 911 is a serious flaw.

So what dialers do people recommend and where to get them? I'm for the one handed operation and find the phone part of the Titan the worst part about it.
Anyone?? this would be great!
if you dont mind getting your hands a little dirty (and voiding your warrenty) then try building your own ROM and place DCDs dialers and quickdialing apps into the rom you are building. there are tons of how to's in the upgrading forum for titans. the other option would be to use a software like bigbuttondialer. get a good working one here at this link. (this one works with 911 and all the other codes so because it was built from the ground up). then go to your phone settigns and enable quick dialing.

Im so confused!

Ok, heres my problem. I have a Verizon XV6900. I am currently on a local CDMA carrier. How can I get my HTC to work on my network, my network excepts outside phones so I know they will do it. Ive read about the Coke unlocker but I am confsued. Does the unlocker make it so you can use the phone on any CDMA network or just so you can put custom ROMs to it? Thank you very much, ive done alot of reading but I just need some clarification. Thanks.

The coke unlocker is so you can install new/different ROMs on you device. What you really want to do is a full flash to your carrier. Who is your carrier? I might have some good pointers or even a tutorial I can point you too.
I have a local carrier called cellcom, theyre a local CDMA company.
I did a quick search and it seems like there is some sort of cellcom rom or something out there for the Vogue, so if you can find that, you shouldn't have an issue. I couldn't point you in the direction of that though, didn't find a download of any sort, just some random info.

Well that's a new one to me! But any way to flash over to them from Verizon you will need to gather some basic information like:
PRL files
MNC #
SID/NID #
activation number.
To get your web MMS working you will need to know other setting like HDr/ppp username and passwords. server names ports proxys, etc. Those you might need to get from cellcom.
There is alot of info that you can pull from a current handset if you have one and some that you will need to ask them for.
Here is a LINK for a tutorial I wrote for flashing the Vogue to cricket just replace all the cricket info with the cellcom info. If you have a question on the tutorial post it in that thread. I monitor it better then here.
From what ive read I can use an alltlell rom and it would work. Could someone tell me how to go about this so cellcom can activate it because I dont have any codes or anything. Thanks.

You can put an alltel ROM on it but you will still need some of the setting I mentioned above unless they are an alltel MVNO which would technically make them a Verizon MVNO now. But anyway here is a LINK to all the shipped ROMs for the Vogue I would start there with a shipped and then upgrade after you have it activated.
Be sure to unlock with coke unlocker first and follow all the instructions.
Well I previously had a razor that was from US Cellular and that worked fine and was activated perfectly but I read in my research that someone had a US Cellular Vogue and it wouldnt activate with cellcom. Is there a way I can just get the unlock code and then have them activate it without messing with the ROMs?

The easiest way to do it find out the PRL & activation code for the OTASP and see if it will program the PST automatically. If it will OTASP successfully you will have at least talk and text.
and it won't touch the ROM.
Your unlock code for a Verizon device will be 000000. F.Y.I.
Could you explain to me how to do that? Im sorry but im a complete newb.

The PRL file is going to be the hard part, I did a quick search and came up empty handed.
For the OTASP I would say call your carrier and ask for it. Most carriers are like *228, *2, *22804, etc, etc.
If you find out the important info I can tell you how to use it.
This site will give you a little bit of intell on PRL's SIDs MNC's and different info you will need. http://www.roamingzone.com/
Ok, I used the service menu and pulled some info out of my rumor. I have the PPPID, PPP Pass, SID, NID, and PRL. I guess the only thing im missing is the MNC and the OTASP number. Im gonna call cellcom in the morning for the OTASP number but does anyone know where I can find the MNC.

Pulled it from my last posted link
here it is Cellcom MNC 600
Now on your PRL you will need the file if you don't have it post your PRL number here and I'll see if I can help you locate it.
My PRL number is 10010. But I guess cellcom doesnt do over the air activation, I called and asked them, so whats my next step? I really really appreciate all the help your giving me on this. Its nice to find an online community that is actually helpful.

Well so now you will need to manually program it with all your gathered information. To do so you are going to access the PST program by dialing ##778# or ##778snd then it will bring up another window click on edit enter 6 0's. Frfom there find all the info that you will need to replace and replace it. As for a PRL file it is a scarce creature for cellcom. I would recommend asking them if they might be able to refer you to where to get it.
try this one it works for me!!!
I have got HTC P3050 (TELUS) I have got a procedure to unlock SPRINT TOUCH but anyone can tll me that it will work for TELUS TOUCH i want to use it in India it may be any network
here is the procedure:
I did this for my Sprint Touch. I am still using it in the USA but my phone has been modified to support other carriers with no problem.
The steps are simple:
Here is what you need to do:
1. Download GetSPC(attached below)
2. Unzip to desktop
3. Turn off phone and remove battery.
4. Write down your HEX ESN
5. Power your device back on
6. Connect via ActiveSync or WMDC
7. Copy entire folder to main memory on device.
8. Run GetSPC.exe
9. In the top box type in your HEX ESN(make sure caps is on)
10. Click generate or whatever the button is named
11. The resulting number should be a 6 digit number, your MSL, write it down.
12. Search for, download and install Qualcomm's QPST tool.(not freeware)
THE FOLLOWING STEPS ARE VERY DANGEROUS SO MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOW MY DIRECTIONS EXACTLY.
13. Run QPST Configuration(run as admin if Vista)
14. From the Dialpad, dial ##3424#(##diag#)
15. Connect device to computer via USB(this will install drivers)
16. In QPST Configuration, click ports.
17. Continue to add ports until the QPST Configuration detects your phone
18. Under active phones it should display your phone.
19. Click Start Clients/Service Programming
20. Select phone and click ok.
DO NOT LEAVE FIRST TAB, THE SETTINGS TAB. THIS IS THE ONLY TAB WE WILL NEED TO CHANGE ANY SETTINGS
21. Under the settings tab, click Read from phone.
22. Input your MSL you got from GetSPC earlier.
23. Under codes where it says Service Programming, change this to 000000
24. Click Write to Phone
25. Wait 1 minute
26. Close Qualcomm QPST one window at a time.
27. Disconnect the USB cable from your device
28. Perform Soft reset once
29. Test new MSL(##000000#)
30. If new code does not go through, hard reset.
31. Depending on what device you have, follow the necessary steps to unlock your phone so you can flash a new ROM to it.
32. Install OEM ROM from carrier of choice or build your own custom ROM using the new carrier's information.
33. Follow instructions to flash new OS to device.
34. Call service provider and do some sweet talking to get them to activate the phone on their network. You may need to do some serious sweet talking because Sprint ESNs are not in Verizon's database and vice versa. This goes for all CDMA carriers.
Good luck.
just get the PRL & MDN FROM YOUR NEW CARRIER AND CHANGE IT USING QUALCOMM
IF U GOT CONFUSION JUST REPLY ME
ALSO I DONT OFTEN VISIT COMP.. SO JUST WAIT 4 MY REPLY I WILL DEFINETELY REPLY YOU
GOOD LUCK
ALSO HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Try using ##778# with no snd. Then you should have the new window pop up.
if u dont get a prl just try to connect any of phones running on cellcomm and then read PRL from that phone using QUALCOMM
also if u want to start it to cellcomm then just go there and fill up the forms and tell them to enter your ESN on their network now just install TELUS WM 6.1 ROM and then dial *228 it will automatically download all the PRL,MDN and change all other information
then flash any ROMS you like i basically like NFS FAN V17 ROM
ALSO U SHOULD PROBABLY DIAL ##778# IT WILL OPEN EPST TOOL THEN U WILL NOT HEAR THE RECORDING!!!!!
IF ANY PBL REPLY ME !!!!!!!
WELL HAPPY NEW YEAR

Getting Hero MSL? (Sprint)

So I went chatting with a support person today, and got this response..
AgentJamie M
I do apologize however the lock code is not provided until device is no longer on a term subscription that is under a current contract.
Has anybody else run into this problem? I'm sure with the Hero not out very long, nobody here has paid the stupid thing off completely, or completed a two year agreement.
Is there any other way to get the MSL? The adb info or whatever command doesn't return the MSL. I'm using DamageControl 2.1
call cs and ask for it ...if that operator wont give it to you call back and ask again one of them will give it to you i got mine on first call
Just a heads up.. You might be able to do this for a short while..
They won't even give MSL's to agent's over the phone anymore, and soon the MSL is going to be gone, most phones are going to OTA activations and phasing out giving programming information...
Shoot me a PM and I can help you out.....
PM Me- ill get it to you. (employee)
I called and asked for mine just yesterday. I told her that I needed it to change a setting on my phone and she gave it to me right away.
I would take 702DROID's advice and keep trying. You'll get it from one of them.
Just called, got the same answer, asked for somebody higher up, got the same exact answer right away before I even asked. Called back, asked for somebody higher up again, got the same answer.
Not my lucky day, I'll call tomorrow I guess.
************************************************** ********
This is a modified guide I wrote for the samsung instinct that will walk you through how to get your MSL code and what to do with it.
DISCLAIMER, I am ###NOT### responsible for any damage you do to your phone or your phone network with this information
************************************************** ********
---- How to access programming and service menus---
*NOTE* only do this from an official build from sprint, anything with a modified dialer might not work *NOTE*
*NOTE* only confirmed to work with official 1.5 or roms based off of official 1.5 ie fresh 1.1 *NOTE*
On your phone go to the dialer, then dail in any one of these codes below and after the last # you should get the menu or it will ask for "current code" aka your MSL #
##data# (##3282#)
##debug#(##33284#)
##diag#(##3424#)
##svn#(##786#)
##prl#(##775#)
##prev#(##7738#)
##akey#(##2539#)
##vocoder# (##8626337#)
-------How to get your MSL code---------------
1) download required 3rd party app
download demo version of CDMA WORKSHOP from
http://www.cdma-ware.com
**not required to get MSL** download qpst version 2.7b323 (advanced program for making changes to radio programming)
http://rs714.rapidshare.com/files/297770360/qpst.zip
2) install the HTC HERO DIAG drivers
http://rs79.rapidshare.com/files/293529424/HTC_Hero_DIAG_Drivers.zip
3)connect your phone via usb cable
4)dial ##diag# (##3424#) on your phone for diag menu, when prompted direct windows to diag drivers listed above
5)run CDMA WORKSHOP, settings at main screen on the right are as follows
com settings (AT mode)
---------------
Port (com#) <--- click port and it should say "HTC DIAG COM PORT"
Baud rate (115200) <--- use this setting
com settings (DM mode)
---------------
Baud rate (115200) <--- use this setting
6) you should now be able to hit <connect> if it was successful you'll see in status bar <connected to com#>
7) now click <read> after a moment all your info will come up on left panel, phone # etc
8) click on security tab change the right panel setting and look for the following block
SPC/User Lock
----------------
Defualt (nv_read) <--- use this setting
9)now click read if done sucessfully you'll see the block below this option flash red and give you a number
10)note the 6 digit number under <SPC/USER LOCK> the one that flashed red, ****this is your MSL number***
***** just an additional warning***** you can REALLY and I mean REALLY screw up your phone if you change one of the settings in those menus if you don't know EXACTLY what you are doing. This isn't for the faint of heart or the random tinkerer.... just be warned

good because I was just about to ask you to give it to me too lol, probably along with everyone else reading this thread
I would strongly encourage everyone not to **** with **** in there though.... an RUU will not recover if you change the wrong thing.... and will require sprint to get involved (if the tech you are talking to is smart enough to fix it)
Problem is, I need the Eris numbers. I had to use ##788+call to get to the menu to edit the SIC.
Im pretty sure QPST is proprietary and also considered Warez since its not readily available. I would take it down if I were you...
I really don't like asking this because I know someone will end up bricking their phone from this post but I am curious.
what usefulness does this have?
Or you could have pm'ed me when I asked, as I was looking at the system to get your MSL...
I'm off work now...
PM me your esn and phone number and I will send it to you first thing in the morning at 10cst when I get to work..

I used the MSL number to change the amount of time it took for my hero to ring when a phone call came in... as some people have reported there is major lag between the time someone heres rings when calling you to when the hero actually rings itself...
i like most others called and told them i needed to change the setting (can't remember what it was) and they gave me both MSLs for my 2 heros...
Unless something changed from a week ago, it should just be a matter of asking the right person, but telling them you have a reason for it, not just asking for the MSL...
here is the link to a post that allowed me to make the change, but more importantly get the info...
http://androidforums.com/sprint-htc...-other-end-few-times-before-ringing-hero.html
R
The easiest way I've found to get the MSL is to do an online ESN swap.
Take your old phone (or any Sprint phone that's not currently activated) - it doesn't even matter if it turns on.
Sign onto your Sprint account and start the process to "Active a new phone".
Enter your other phone's ESN... follow the links....
Wait a few minutes (maybe 10) and go back in and swap back to your Hero.
Through the process, they give you the MSL and the one-time lock code.
any sprint store employee will give it to you if you walk in, no ones ever asked me and ive never been told i cannot give this info.
how do you shorten the amount of times it rings? id love to do that. also, what other things can you do with the msl#?
Or if you call in, make some bogus reason like your phone keeps freezing, ask them to walk you through an RTN, they will have you enter ##(yourmsl)#, tell them thanks and that it seems to be working better and your done.

Advanced CDMA dialer menu *help*

So today I went into radioshack to get my epic 4g. We ran into a snag and my phone would not activate and the sales rep contacted sprint. They had me enter in a number into the dial pad and edit settings to my phone number and something else. This was at 8 in the morning and I was super tired.
I remember it begins with ##8800 or ##88900 and 1 or 2 more numbers ending in a single pound. I'm really sorry I don't remember the exact code but I hope this helps someone who needs it or for whatever reason. I think you can edit the CDMA network stuff in there. I'll keep at it.
I was in that menu earlier while getting help with activation. Alls you can do is change the phone numed and msid.

I wasn't sure that was all it could do. Thanks for the heads up though and I know I'm not the only one that had to do it. Just wanted to contribute something if I could.
Thanks
