Unlock NVM Folder on 9k Port

I can not get the nvm folder unlocked on the 9k port. I do need it unlocked to be able to write the data settings and have them stick, correct? Also to change the MEID? I have CDMA WS 2.7, QPST 366, DFS 4.0.0.4. Can anyone help?
I am trying to flash this phone to cricket-
I do have 1x data with a AT&T sim installed. Text and calls work.
I also have 1x data with no sim card installed, but I can't make calls.
Yes I am trying to unlock and edit the 9k port with the vzw sim in the phone.
Edit: 'open sesame door' DOES NOT WORK

The radio itself ia the problem. It doesnt work at the frequencies that at&t operates on. Yes it does have a sim but it isnt the same as a sim that is in an at&t phone.

Ok, but I still need to unlock the NVM folder on the 9k port modem.

Are you attempting to get 3g data?

Yup.

Good luck. The thunderbolt doesnt operate on the same frequencies as at&t. The radios are not capable of it.

Who said anything about that, in my post I state the following
I AM FLASHING THIS PHONE TO CRICKET
I am trying to get the 3g data to work on cricket, so far I can only get 1x data. Anyways, my question is how to unlock the NVM folder.

'MR2.5 MDM9K Patched for 3g' with no luck
Which radio are you talking about?
2.11.605.9 Radio or 1.01.1520.0 MR4 Sense 3.0 Leak Radio
I tried to download the radios, but the dropbox URLs are dead.

I'll take a look tomo see if I can find it can't gurantee it will just hunch 2long weeks just glad it finally stuck I did think it was possible almost gave up

CDMA doesn't use sim card. Sim card is gsm by default. The one on the tbolt is not a "sim" as we know it. Im pretty sure it I for 4g LTE only. Everything else should work, yes 3g cdma, without it present. I think it is a UIM card. I have heard Verizon is using it for CDMA authentication as well, but I am not sure on that one. CDMA does not need a "sim" card, but a carrier could choose to use a UIM or any hardware key if they desired. If you aren't on Verizon's network, it should be 100%. If you are(even through a third party carrier that uses Verizon for their cdma service) you will need a new card. Once they are issued, they get tied to the account and phone number and cannot be changed for security reasons.

So you are saying the data fields on the 9k port are irrelevant to my data issue. All the NV items on 9k port still have Verizon information, so the UM and AN User ID and so forth are all the old Verizon information. I can NOT write to these fields, from what I understand this might be the reason I am not getting 3G.
So if those settings are not needed, is it my Radio? Like I said all my calls, texts, MMS even all WORK. My only issue is 1x Data, I can't seem to get 3g.
ALSO WHEN THE VERIZON UIM/SIM CARD (WHICH EVER IT IS) IS IN THE PHONE, I HAVE NO DATA AT ALL, I ONLY GET DATA WHEN I USE A SIM CARD FROM ANOTHER PROVIDER.
THE DATA WORKS WITH NO UIM/SIM IN THE PHONE, BUT WHEN THERE IS NO UIM/SIM I CAN NOT MAKE CALLS.

Have you seen this article? You are correct with your approach, this may help you.

[Q] Information on network for motorola atrix

Please help me. I have a motorola atrix 4g. Unlocked. Rooted. Running on t-mobile network. I have 3g contract but all i am getting is edge (which is fricking slow). I know it possible for you to be able to change atrix automatic custom network (which is at&t) to work with t-mobile. Youtube doesn't help cause all i see is bell, sprint and metro pcs. I know it something with the radio. But i need your help thanks.

Do you have any friends who have tmo that you can ask their apn settings? That's my suggestion.

This is true. Carrier radio frequencies do differ in the USA. Wifi is the only high speed you'll get in the USA if you are not on at&t using the at&t Atrix.

Im so angry. But hope something comes up

If you're not locked into a t-mobile contract I suggest going to straight talk, they have a SIM for AT&T version phones and that should get you 3g. Or go for h20 wireless which should get you full 4g speed.

i'd still consider HSPA plus more 4g than Sprint's so called 4g and that wimax thing the original evo has
and I'd consider verizon's 3G more like 2g hahaha

Man im disappointed u should have never brought this phone cuz a friend said I can hack the Motorola custom radio which was at&t to T-Mobile. But he was wrong.

Not familiar with Metropcs so sorry if this is kinda generic.
1. Not unless your carrier is really weird... Or if you are on a contract and don't have a smartphone plan
2. Couple seconds. Once you're in recovery and all, the zip to flash is really simple.
3. This depends on if your carrier is GSM or CDMA and what frequency bands it uses. GSM is fairly simple... CDMA can (?) be done, but it's significantly more complicated.
From everything I can see, you're almost guaranteed to get 1xRTT (2g data) and voice. 3g and MMS are iffy, and require changes to APN settings, and LTE or HSPA+ depend on the frequency band, if you're on GSM. On CDMA, I have no idea.
4. As with any flashing, there's the off chance something bad could happen. Not likely, especially if you follow the directions. But, it could happen.
If you give me info on the carrier, I can give more specific instructions
Final note: please Don't Capitalize Every Word Because It Makes People Annoyed And Is Weird To Read.

MetroPCS Is A Cellular Carrier That Provides You With The Same Service As Other Carriers But For A Cheaper Prive And No Contract.

Looked into this. I'd think using the process involving the evo 3d using qpst applies here for most of it. I'm debating on my RAZR m or actually using my evo 3d since it is tried and tested.

That's page plus and cricket. It needs different values to do metropcs. You might be able to change the cricket/page plus values to metropcs, but I doubt anyone would know the changes to make.
Also, if they're not doing byod any more, that may permanently stop you from flashing it ever... They may lock their network down based on IMEIs

VZW G2 compatibility with GSM

The spec sheet for the Verizon G2 say that it's capable of both world GSM and CDMA, but someone said that it wouldn't work on any other network. Can someone confirm this? I really want the Verizon one because of wireless charging and lack of tabs in settings menu, but it's no good if it won't work.

[QUOTE=droid_
I think it is GSM unlocked but for outside of the US only. And BTW the tabbed settings layout is configurable on all versions.

I might be getting the VZW version because I live outside of the US too and my carrier works on 3G 900Mhz and (correct me anyone if I'm mistaken) the AT&T version does not support that band.

Verizon works in the US and is SIM unlocked. Using metro and T-Mobile Sims now as I test out their networks......
Edit: let me also point out you have to add the apn if you want data. You don't have to call Verizon or anything. Just plug in the SIM card of your choice add the apn and you are good to go. This has been done on all verizon LTE phones with SIM cards as long as the phone supports the bands of the network you are trying to use.

Drivers weren't the issue. It just took a while because people didn't realize you had to select "Ethernet" as your USB connection mode. Takes a single tap and you can use the driver that comes on the phone.

Maybe you need a 4G sim? If i remember correctly when 3g came around for orange i had a 3g phone but my sim wasn't 3g so therefore i had to buy a 3g sim card in order for the 3g capabilities on my phone, Unless you ring up 3network and explain to them your having trouble getting 4g on your device,
They'll probably tell you you'll need a new sim or something

According to the site it's a software upgrade from three that's needed

To get 4G when it comes to your area you need to make sure you’ve downloaded all the latest software updates on your 4G device. Your 4G update is not labelled as 4G, so we recommend you download all software to ensure you have access to 4G when it comes to your area.
