hi people this is my ever first post i think. Just wanna ask if i got the correct settings that i extracted from an original V3m Alltel. I worked on my Sprint mogul and changed it to Alltel ppc6800 rom. Now i changed all the settings so it would finally work on alltel network. Pls advice me if made a mistake on the setting, much appreciated.

Hello all. I am a current Sprint Mogul user patiently waiting the Touch Pro like everyone else. I have an individual who is interested in buying my Mogul when I upgrade, but he is on the Verizon network. Would the Mogul work on Verizon's network? Would I have to use a custom rom and the verizon carrier cab file, or would a factory verizon rom work??
Thank you all for your help.

Short answer yes it will work with a custom rom, cab and some other requirements. Check the link in the above post, search for my post somewhere at the bottom of the first page.
Okay here's the deal. I have the opportunity to purchase a brand new Sprint 6800 for fairly cheap. I have Alltel as my curent provider. Can someone guide me into flashing it with WM 6.1 with that touchflo & GPS for Alltel? I read the FAQ but it didn't really say anything for my situation. Thanks in advance for any and all your help.
As long as you can activate the sprint phone with your alltel service... you have no problem.
Once you have activated and confirmed it's good... Just flash DCD 3.2.5 and the radio per the instructions and run the alltell carrier cab.
the Radio / OS roms are carrier independent... The carrier Cab is what customizes it to work with your service.
so how can i find out if I can activate with Alltel?

Get ESN Number from phone and call Alltel to see if they can activate it.
Also in the future you should make the subject of the post a brief description of the issue.. Like "Help flashing sprint 6800 on alltel service with WM 6.1"
You'll get more people who have had a similar situation or think they can help you to click on the post and supply good info.
Will do.. Thanks
I have a Qwest branded Mogul.
i am currently running DCD 3.26 and radio 3.42.50 (THX DCD!!!)
qwest is shutting down and forcing their customers to choose a different provider
i have not had my phone for very long, so of course i would like to find a way to use my mogul so i don't have to purchase a new phone
i am aware that i can load custom rom's with different carrier optimizations,
---> so i (as well as most qwest customers ) am curious if anyone knows if either verizon or Sprint will activate the ESN for my mogul.
any thoughts?
I would call a service rep, and ask them, otherwise its as easy as installing a Sprint Carrie cab by DCD. The last thing to do is figure out if Sprint well activate the ESN to allow access to there network.
Godspeed
I'm pretty sure they would just need to put your ESN on their network, which is the hard part since they'd rather you have one of their Mogul's / XV6800's. Good luck trying to port it. Let us know how it goes. I am interested cuz I have an old Mogul and if I could port that to Verizon and have both phones on that account it would be pretty cool.
Has anyone had any luck doing this? Migrating it from Qwest to Sprint successfully? And if so, what would be the correct steps to migrate it?
Would I need to/could I flash a Sprint ROM on the phone?
I see that there is discussion about SPC or MSPL with these phones? What is this used for?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

Qwest Mogul on VZW or Sprint
You need to know the code to enter into the MSL to unlock the phone.
The program Get SPL works for most people.
I had to edit the rgeistry to find mine.
Once you have changed the MSL code to 000000,
I use QPST to backup all the important settings just in case I have to adjust data settings.
You need to flash the Olipro bootloader (I use 2.40) then the radio, then you can flash any custom ROM you like.
Then just install a carrier CAB file for your carrier, to the phone.
I find that PPCKitchen has the best program to pick and choose just the programs that you want.
But try a few Pre-cooked ROMs if you like.
There quite a few Chefs here and over at PPCGeeks that put a lot of time and effort into building and uploading custom ROMs for people to try out.
They all monitor the threads to help out if you have any issues.
And remember that you can use a TITAN/Mogul ROM cooked for any carrier,
Just load that CAB file for the carrier that you use.
Also, try to flash via SD card when you can. You never know that cable may fail, or the power outag occures.
Hope this helps,
Above all your esn has to be accepted by whatever provider you want to use. Most of them will not allow the quest esn to be used. So before you do anything all and ask.
Qwest Mogul on VZW or Sprint
Yes that is a very good point.
I have 3 Qwest PPCs that have that problem.
The ESNs are good, but because of policy, I now have 3 ROM slaves.
eBay has plenty of Sprint 6800s, most of the "Usable" ones sell for around $50oo.
If you fee you need to rid yourself ofthat item, PM me pleae.
I could use the parts for a security project I am working on.
Either way, you could allways use it as a test unit to practice on.
quest to whatever.
i dont know about where you all are located, but here in the peoples republic of California if you totaly metro or cricket out your mogul , with working mms and all , you can get 200 to 300 depending on the condition. food for thought.
Hi, I have my Htc6800 (formely on alltel) and I got everything (voice,internet,mms,gps)working on MetroPcs. Now I got my friend Verizon XV6800 phone to flash to MetroPcs. I programmed everything exactly same as my 6800 but with his settings and number. I can not get any voice service. It has no Signal, I get this weird icon next to the signal tree. See Picture http://img81.imageshack.us/i/noservice.png/ . I have Rom MetroPCs2.1, radio 3.42.50 on both phones, and PRL list 00068. Both running Ryan mogul Version 2.1 Light (WM 6.5) *Default Titanium. I tired to flash back original Verizon rom and I can do it but get same problem. I may add that both phones have cloned ESN's but only one works. His phone has his esn and mine has mine. Same roms,radio and bootloader on both devices. Please tell me what to do to fix this "No Service". Thanks
Sounds like you need a carrier cab. There was a thread that contained all that info already as well. Here is the site
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=501754
It also contains the cabs to get the MMS/Internet running as well
anytime you flash a rom non specific to your carrier you will need these files to bring up service. I hope it helps you out some.

Carefully read through all of the relevant threads Ryan Mogul has posted.
Many metro people have had issues and he seams to walk even the un-helpable through untill you fix the problem.
Also take advantage of the xda google tool (top brown ribbon tab named Search). You will find everything there.
Hi, thanks for replies. I have used prl from within rom i used that was made by ryam mogul and everything works on one phone but not second. I flashed back original verizon rom and I had same problem with NO SERVICE. Is maybe hardware different between these two phones. One was alltel and other (non working) is verizon. Is there anything is cdma workshop that I have not done or did do that was wrong. I super cid it per instructions and changed esn. It there option to disable voice service anywhere ? I can get wifi but no gps and voice and I get that weird icon. http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/3048/noservice.png
Update. I got signal when I flashed back to original Verizon Rom with original stock radio in it. It gets and works in EVDO mode. I will try to convert to MetroPcs Roma and see what happens.
Ive been trying to find a answer and cant quite figure it out.
I was on Alltel and was moved to VZW during the merger.
I have flashed my phone(alltel branded ppc6800) with Ryanmougl's heavy Alltel rom and it works great.
I just wonder if I can just flash with his VZW firmware and it will work since my phone is registered on VZW because of the merger.
