[Q] Making carrier settings stick - Droid X General

Hey guys, I'm having problems making my carrier settings stick on my phone.
Almost all of the rest of the settings did stick such as phone, but don't have 1X or EVDO, because the MIP and PPP settings keep resetting back to Verizon's.
Can anyone please help me out with this?
Thanks.

What carrier?

It's a mexican one, called Iusacell.
I got to type some values with MDN on MIP, and others with MEID on PPP; it seems that those tabs are the ones that are locked...sadly.

You will have to flash a verizon prl. Also make sure the settings in qpst revert back to verizon...especially the ppp configs. If it was properly flashed to cricket, flashing the modem alone won't do it. More them likely, all the settings will have to be corrected.
yep. you will need to enter all the VZN info that was removed to have it hooked up on cricket and you will also have to hope the phone isnt blacklisted on VZN's ESN list. if it is your friend will have a nice android MP3 player that he can play games on.

Yeah...typically phones that nice on cricket have bad esns
Is there a guide somewhere to putting all the VZN settings back in? And he said the guy said the ESN was good.

I'll check to see if I saved a file. Do you have a fascinate?
Don't have it anymore. But try grabbing and flashing this prl. Then *228 to see if it can activate. If it activates but you don't get net or mms, then let me know and I will walk you through it.

Ok...download the samsung drivers and a program called qpst. I hear Build 355 is out haven't had a chance to use that one but should be the same. Anyways, hook up your phone to qpst and switch it to dial up networking. Select add new port and find which port you hooked it up to. Name the port COMX (put the port # where x is). Under label name it usb. Hit enter then find the phone and click it. Then select service programming. Then go to the roam tab and then go down to the send file option select browse and locate the prl and then select flash to phone. Make sure it is a *prl and not a zip. Phone will reboot and then attempt *228. Im not infront of the computer but thats the gist. If you can't get it let me know and I will attempt a complete walkthrough. Im on my phone so it's a wee difficult.

Hi,
I am in the same boat, I was able to program the PRL, now getting Verizon activation but what about the other options to ensure mms, web, etc to work. How do I revert those back? Thx.

Are you going back to vzw? If so, a *228 should fix it...if not let me know
after trying to port a rom from the epic, i realized that i forgot to remove their pst apps so it rewrote some values to my fascinate. calls/sms work but data only works sometimes and reboots the radio often. Im going to try flashing that prl file with qpst. if that doesnt work do you mind walking me through a possible way to fix data?
I would love to see a walkthrough on this ... i'm not really understanding how to get the dial-up networking to work since i cant even do anything but attempt to activate on roaming

Depending on what software you're on...dun can be accessed through the wirless network settings or **33284 ( Then enter spc 000000).
And actually I think I just figured out a simple way to get settings back to vzw. use qpst build 355 and input all the correct cdma info for verizon. And hit write to phone. The phones are prewired for three g only through vzw and that build of qpst will not be able to rewrite the settings so upon reboot the original vzw settings and password will reappear.

You can...it's just more work. And depending on the carrier, like sprint, requires you know someone that will add your flashed phone to the database. There are methods...but as they violate certain laws I cannot discuss on this forum. Since the fascinate is a verizon phone it's software is typically already hard wired for big red. So apn and nv values will revert upon incomplete programming. It's rather simple to flash a phone back to verizon.

Nexus 6p Radio band selection menu possibility

Hey guys I was wondering is it possible that we can make a piece of software that can give us the ability to select the radio band manually? Any thoughts or comments will be appreciated.

I believe there is a service menu, I'm currently looking for that myself. There is an app called lte discovery but that may only let you see which band your on.

thank you that does let you choose which preferred network to use, but I think op wants to set specific bands of the network. On my old s6 there was a code that let you set these to whatever you wished, but have tried it and doesn't work.

Not sure if this will help 100%, but I am sure i can't hurt.
Since you're rooted you can go ahead and install this by flashing the zip in recovery.
After you have booted back up, open the new incall modz control app.
Then hit the three lines on the top left to open the control menu options.
Scroll down and click the advanced hidden menu section.
This section opens up several hidden menus.
You can look through and see what may give you the options you're looking for.
I suggest using the "apn unlocking" to give you access to edit the apn setting.
You can also play around in the "phone testing menu" section and look within the field test secrion to force LTE.
I must say BE CAREFUL because you could change a setting that may require a restore/reinstall of your rom!.
I have played with a lot of settings and never done any real damage, seems like it would just close the app of the option wasn't compatible with my phone.
The hidden menus are also accessible via a dialer code (which varies per device variant and there are playstore apps as well, don't remembwr the names.
I only suggest the mod, because it is part of ny oZoP project and it will give you lots of customizations for the caller id, plus the advanced hidden menu that i beleive you could use. Like i said though, there are other options and the choice is yours.
Good luck

Well it looks like I don't need to answer the first question, but I will just mention for other users, the mod has been tested and confirmed working on every "stock" based rom without issue.
As far as the menu options not showing, it looks to me if the setup you are running has had the files needed for the options debloated or possibly that variant doesn't include them by default.
I have attatched a flashable zip of the files needed, but I DO RECOMMEND MAKING A FULL BACKUP just in case.
After you get your backup finished just flash the zip in recovery and proceed back to the app for the extra options.
Good luck again and let me know how that goes. Your feedback is valuable to me so I can ensure that everyone gets the same experiance as I intended

H870 in the USA

Hi xda community,
I brought my new LG G6 from abroad to the USA and my carrier is AT&T. However, don't get a LTE/4G connection, H only.
My older G4 gets 4G right away and the G6 covers all the G4 specs and AT&T actually offers the G6 as well. Any advice or is it just not possible?
Thanks

New Update With Few Tips & Hotspot Mod {CRL2}

Hey All,
I had to update this thread a little it was pretty terrible on wording and full details. (Sorry About That)
The current hotspot hack still works on this new update too which is now CRL2.
You still need to add dun but it will look like this example below....
Ex: default,mms,dun,xcap,supl << Credits to whoever found this out first I just applied it to here and it works I’m currently using it now for this post :fingers-crossed::good:
*In order to edit your APN you will have to download Quick Shortcut App from the Play store*
Another thing if you didn’t know Good Lock is out and working perfectly too with new clock options and custom pulldown options that you can set to your liking.
*I added screenshots to help set what I set or how my good lock looks.*

they was added by sprint in the newest update
it was not like this before the update
XCAP is a protocol which enables a user configuring his service data (e.g., modifying a call forwarding number, changing his barring services) on the Multimedia Telephony Application Server (MTAS). The XCAP flow is typically carried over the default bearer of the Internet APN.
SUPL is a technology which utilizes existing standards where available and possible, to transfer assistance data and positioning data over a User Plane bearer, such as IP, to aid network and SUPL Enabled Terminal (SET) based positioning technologies in the calculation of a SET's position
