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

[Q] Change phone number

Hi Guys,
Is it possible to change the phone number of my Froyo phone on Bell without reverting back to the stock ROM?
Thanks!

I believe that you need to have something like CDMA Workshop, where you can connect the device to the computer and change all the programming of the device (including phone numbers).
I believe there are codes as well to access carrier programming directly in the device, but I don't know them. Although, I have seen a few threads with these codes around xda.

I know my new XevRev rom for WM6.5 would allow me to program/PRL update with Verizon, it is currently untested with other carriers though but I wager it should work since I made the roms carrier specific. It's not droid but you shouldn't have to flash back to stock without relocking.

Since I switched service to MetroPCS with my EVO and Metro did an outstanding job in leaving me phone-less for a full day and a half due to not programming it properly, I had to search around a bit myself and came across a few codes that may help:
##DATA#
##DIAG#
##000000# (note that if the zeros are for the MSL number. If you have CID unlocked the device, this code should probably work. Else, you will need to figure out your MSL. You can use MSL Reader, which is free in the Market). BTW, this last one is the EPST Programming, which is where you can change the phone number. Having said that, play with this at your own risk and back up every single number that you change by writing it down somewhere in case you need it again)

Get msl/spc on any htc 100% super easy

-=== ON ANY HTC THIS WILL SET MSL/SPC TO 000000 ===-
(you can also set the MSL/SPC to anything else you want)
forgive me if this has been posted but i have not scene it. people list several ways to find MSL/SPC using apps and searching, etc.
as stated in beginning of the howto, this assumes you have already installed the proper HTC DIAG drivers on your computer/laptop.
also assumes you have your device in DIAG mode by typing ##DIAG# on your handset's dial pad.
MSL/SPC is not tied to any authorization for service, changing the MSL/SPC does not affect operation, just makes life easier if it is 000000
**** 1 important note, if you do a ##RTN# reset on your device the MSL/SPC will go back to its original. if you do have to do a ##RTN# reset on your device, you can of course do this procedure again. only way around the MSL/SPC resetting when you do ##RTN# reset would be to manually edit it in memory. ****
cheers,

Now if only it was that easy for virgin mobile

Numero uno bro... It works! Nice one bro...

Cool. I used DFS 3.3.0.7 to get my MSL

this worked great on my OG EVO 4G. Been searching for hours on how to reset the phone identify information and get the MSL on a non-rooted phone. Instead, reset the MSL per the instructions above and reset with ##786#. Thanks!!!!

thanks

Well this is the EVO Shift forum. Nut the easiest way I know of is to just call them and ask for it. I've done this several times and they have given it to ke no questions asked. But if they do ask, just tell them your trying to reset your data. Sometimes they will offer to walk yoi through it. Which gets you the same results. They tell you the MSL.

I think you are confused, MSL is set to 000000 on all Verizon phones that I know of...
Are you coming from Sprint and/or an HTC phone?

coming in from sprint on note 3. Trying to change codec as some say this helps with the garbled voice issue. Now I am trying to find out how to get into the settings to change the codec from the keypad. Thank you for the MSL code, I used be rooted and could use terminal emulator to get it or just call sprint so I wasn't sure how it was on Verizon.

I would also like to know how to get to that menu. I tried the Sprint dailer numbers but it doesn't work.

Anyone?
