No Problem.
HOW TO FLASH Fascinate to Straight Talk
OK I already see that I am gonna get blown up with PMs about flashing to Straight Talk and how I did it.
First you must have a Straight Talk phone of your own if not I can provide you one.
PM me for more details about that.
You are going to need the 16 digit password:
PM me for that as well.
Then you will have to the MEID and switch it to the Fascinate.
NOTE<<<<<YOU MUST THROW AWAY THE STRAIGHT TALK PHONE AS IT IS ILLEGAL TO HAVE 2 PHONES ACTIVE AT THE SAME TIME.>>>>>>
I am not responsible if you break the law. This is your warning. I flash phones for a living, MetroPCS, Boost Mobile, and Straight Talk, and this is how I keep my hands clean.
Then once you do that reboot the phone and dial *22890
Let the phone activate and reboot.
Once it reboots make a call to anyone. It should ask you to hit the number "1"
Do so and the call should go through
Then hang up and you should have working Data.
Nothing else test everything and don't forget to thank.
Enjoy!

It depends on what 2 Androids you have. But the answer is yes you probably can.
I accidentally updated to the 2.3 update from sprint, which naturally killed root and battery life of my shift, and so now I'm wondering if there is a way to ruu back to 2.2 so I can root and save some juice, or am I just S.O.L. until devs figure something else out?
This has been answered in several different threads... As of right now there is no way to return to 2.2. Until another root method is found, your pretty much stuck with what you have.

Wow fml, I should have known better. Thanks for the heads up though. This is going to be a long edc.
I'm in the same boat. If there isn't a solution found within a week or so, I'm going to reactivate my Palm Pre and use it until the fix is found. I NEED to have wifi tethering and the Pre was really easy to get it working on. FML
i just got off phone from sprint for my bill but the girl said she soo busy resting phone back to stock alot of people dont like update so call them maybe a way they can roll it back
I'm certainly going to call and see if they can...

Yeah,make sure you let us know. I updated my wife's phone the other day .I want to take it back to 2.2 so I can root it if need be.
I just got this HTC Evo 4G from a friend for $30 bucks and I wanted to root it. When I went to the Bootloader screen,on top it says LOCKED(OOW).I already search what is means,it means that my phone is locked and is out of warranty.The phone was Remanufactures by Asurion.My question is, can I still root the phone? I read that using Captains guide I will be able to root it.But I can't find that guide.If anybody can help or give me suggestions I will appreciate it.Thanks

It should be fine just call sprint to see what u need to jump on intl lines and you may have to find .apk for the intl settings I don't think he added in on that ver. ?

Or do the international unlock yourself. Takes less than 5 mins (did it on 3 Sprint GS4s now) and buy a Sim that will work in Paris.

hmmm, do you have time to elaborate slightly...what are the benefits of unlocking myself...im down with that for sure, but would like to know what the advantage is to that, versus me finding the intl .apk and just calling sprint? thanks Daniel!

You get it done right away. As opposed opposed to Sprint who you have to be on the phone with for 20+ mins. And the ota unlock that they send doesn't always work. So you would have to call again for them to resend it.
Just a quick how to on unlocking the Hotspot on any lollipop version of tw. Root is Not needed
First you must get your msl
There are numerous ways to get it the best way is call sprint tech support and tell them "band 41 is disabled and you need to enable it. Your friends s5 gets it and he has sprint spark. Mines disabled"
They will send you to advanced tech support who will give you the msl and walk you through enabling band 41. {just go along with him and say goodbye you got the msl now}
Next type in ##data# (on the phone dialer pad)
Click edit
Type in msl
Go to apn
Select the first apn EHRPD and go to type
Change it from (default, mms) to (default, mms, dun) no spaces
Click the menu up top right and hit save
{hitting save is mandatory}
Next got to the lte apn
Goto type
And make the same changes also remember HIT SAVE
Now reboot and turn on your Hotspot
Tadaaaa a.
Note Hotspot will not work on airrave. At least this method. But it works flawlessly otherwise. Hopes this helps
Works on All tw lollipop versions including OG1
Enjoy
Sprint GS5 Moars 6.2
Yep, worked great for me after updating to OG1
Thanks
What does "all tw lolipop versions" mean?
Will it work on my new sprint S5 nonrooted G900pupu3BOG1?

Yes but it don't work on airrave but will anywhere else. Perfectly
Sprint GS5 Moars 6.2
Yep, it works (with caveat)
First time post here (long time XDA lurker, though). A BIG THANK YOU robalboa for this excellent post. Your instructions are spot on and easy to follow.
I can confirm this is working on my unrooted, stock Sprint Galaxy S5 G900P running OG1 lollipop. One caveat, however: any incoming call breaks the hotspot. Will post if I note any other issues. Thank you again!
Hello, thank you for sharing info, like to know if your can send pics of steps on how to get wifi tether due to i dont see options for S5. Thank you

Follow the instructions. The Hotspot is in settings. It's built in no app.
Works perfect but not on airrave
Sprint GS5 Moars 6.2
Happy Halloween and thank you for posting reply, like to note does S5 have to have active data because S5/Phone Wholesaler I want to give to my girlfriend which she will have active Wi-Fi tether hotspot already installed? Thank you so much and again happy Halloween to everyoneThank you so much and again happy Halloween to everyone
Yes the s5 does not have svdo (simultaneously voice and data)
So when you get a incoming call it kills the Hotspot until the call ends
While the S3 was the last samsung to support svdo
Sprint GS5 Moars 6.2
This will be perfect till I get around to rooting my new S5. But I'm kind of confused here. I already have my msl so don't need to call a Sprint tech. And the way I read post #1, the real reason to call was to get your msl# and after hanging up with the tech, next thing it says is, "Next type in ##data# ".
So I hope this doesn't sound foolish and maybe it's just because I already have my msl and didn't need to call Sprint, but where do I type in ##data#? I thought maybe the phone dialer but realized that's only numeric.

I thought it was the dialer and now I do feel a little foolish, but I'll get over it.
Works Perfectly on OG1.
You Rock man, thank you :good:

I just want to thank everyone for putting this out there. I just got my S5 today and really wanted to unlock the tether like I had on my S4. I also didn't want to root it quite yet because I wanted to keep knox for a while in case something is messed up with the phone. I tried this and it worked flawlessly.
If anyone is wondering I'm on OK4 and it worked. I got my MSL by doing a chat with sprint and saying I was interested in development options and then once I got to a rep I just asked for it.
how to enabl native hotspot on any version
how or where to get the msl ?
i tried to download it from Playstore but
you have to call sprint. read the OP.
