help with new rom - Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development

i upgraded rom and radio (dcd 2.2 and 3.16 radio). everything works fine except my data connection. it says sprint (dial up) is connected but sprint pcs doesn't connect. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you make calls? Can you send txts?
try a restart and load up google.com if it doesnt work then i recomend a hard reset
if you cant make calls check your msid

yes i can make calls and send texts. the internet connects just not on sprint pcs network. it is some sprint (dial up) network and it is super slow.

Sounds like IWF
Greetings,
Sounds like he is making an old style CDMA data call that is what we used before 1xRTT or EVDO, and it is still supported so probably falling back to it because his settings for 1x are not right, but since his phone is ok he can make the old style calls. Make sure that your data call is dialing #777.

it tries to dial 777, but then connects to the sprint dial up

honestly i would call sprint and see if they could update your prl
either that or drive to a area that has evdo and try it there

Yep, thats most likely the issue... something isnt authenticating for data correctly.

i updated prl to 60611, ran iota and still same thing. i can connect to internet but it is really slow, says im connected to sprint(dialup) but not sprint pcs.

Alltel ##778 unlock code 000000 not working

I just updated to the current Alltel 6800 ROM. After setting up the phone and doing a hard reset, I noticed I have no data connection. I put in my#@alltel.com in the connection settings for the Alltel wireless connection. Tried *228 to update either the PRL or activate the phone, but get a message that programming could not be completed. I've tried to ##775 and ##778, but 000000 is not accepted when I'm asked for the unlock code. Any suggestions?
just got off the phone with Alltel
They had no idea what was going on. I spoke with their level one and two reps and they referred me to the insurance replacement number (glad I paid for that!). It's weird since I can make and receive calls on the phone.
**228 Not working
I upgraded to the new Alltel ROM and am having a problem when I dial **228 I can't do either option '2' or option '3'. I am able to receive and send calls and my data connection works fine, but I've got a flashing triangle on the today screen saying that I'm roaming. I talked to Alltel and they didn't give me any help. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
Keir

Are you performing **228, or *228? If so, that's your problem right there. You only need to dial with one "*".
Verify what's the PRL version in your phone. If you're area has EVDO it should be 40036, if not, it should be 30031.

If you can't get it working from Gelial's instructions, you may also want to check the SID in EPST. After I upgraded and activated, it still didn't set my SID correctly for whatever reason so I was roaming all the time. You can manually go in and change it in EPST assuming you wrote it down beforehand.

Sounds like somethings not setup right in EPST but if you can't get in.... that's a whole other issue. I didn't have any problem with the upgrade changing my unlock code, I did see this in the past with the Sprint upgrades though. You may want to try GetSPC to see if the MSL code it generates for you works. It may be worth a shot...

Sprint Users: Mode of Operation EVDO ONLY working?

Ever since I upgraded to the new radio 3.35.04 I have not been able to get my phone to run in EVDO Only Mode. It will not acquire a signal, but keeps searching for one endlessly.
I use EVDO only mode to keep incoming calls from kicking me off the internet when I'm downloading or uploading files while using my mogul as a modem for my pc.
I am a Sprint user. Any other Sprint users with DCD's rom having the same problem?
EVDO revA works fine as long as I have my phone in Hybrid mode. I'm currently using DCD's 3.0.4 Sprint ROM.
Thank you for your feedback.
actually the only problem im having id when i turn the phone on if its not set to sprint only network mode then it will try to find a signal forever and wont do evdo it will be in 1x... and when it does find a singal im on the kricket network and cant make calls pretty fuc%3d up

Problem Solved: apparently I have been too hasty to think EVDO ONLY MODE was not working. This time I let it seek for a tower for up to 5 min (I think) and all of a sudden it works in EVDO ONLY MODE.
All it took was letting it get a lock on the tower that one time (it has zero delay too). So that's nice.
how can i get my phone to get into EVDO only mode? Please point me in right direction. Thank You. I will also search google and this site.

Dude, you know you can't make voice calls or text in EVDO only mode right?

What does EVDO data connection look like?

I just got the data plan, finally, and I am one of the many noobs that didn't read any instructions and went ahead and flashed without writing down all that useful EPST info. I have gotten "a" data connection, but it seems to be terrible, and I know it supposed to be much better.
My question is, is there any difference in a "dial-up" connection and a higher speed connection in terms of icons. It shows that I am in an EVDO coverage area, but under connections it shows a dial up connection.
I never used the data on the mogul before, so I'm not sure if I need to call Sprint Customer Service, or just deal with their crappy data in my area.
Thanks for the help
You should have an "Ev" icon at the top somewhere as far as I know.
Telling us what ROM and radio you flashed might help us help you.
Make sure it still says EV at the top when you are online, if the EV changes to a 1X then something is wrong with your configuration.

sorry, i'm running reloaded 4, which i believe is dcd 3.2.6 with the touchFlo 2D.
sorry, i'm running reloaded 4, which i believe is dcd 3.2.6 with the touchFlo 2D. I have the EV symbol, i just wanted to know if it should say I have a dial up connection as well whenever I'm using data or if that is the wrong one.

Did you install the carrier cab? If not, it would make your data connection not work.
EVDO dials up just like 1X, it is just able to connect at a faster speed.

yeah i installed the newest one, august 08 i believe, and got EPST to work so I could make changes, and i get a data connection, its just terrible.
well i took it to a sprint guy i know, and he had a tech look at it. the verdict he had was that my "downloaded software" was causing it to slow down. i just laughed and said thanks. his idea of downloaded software was my ROM, and i cannot believe that dcd has created a ROM that slows down internet connections.
any ideas?
Edit:
eek, double post
i did the same thing.. flashed without writing down the EvDo password (known as the HDR AN AUTH LONG password in EPST.
The method to extract your EvDo password is to use CDMA Workshop to do a memory dump and then use a Hex Editor to read the data and obtain a 16 digit hex number which is your EvDo password..
Havent been able to figure this out.. Some programs already have a built in EvDo password reader..
Good luck if you can suss this one out!
1X is approx 150 kB/s download speed
EvDo is around 1500 kB/s download speed
(New Zealand) I'm not sure if it's the same in your area/country
Cheers

I saw that the HDR AN AUTH LONG was all gibberish in the settings, and I was curious if that was supposed to be something. Does anyone know if that's something that Sprint should be able to give me, or am I going to have to just wait and have an "accident" with this phone?
No idea, I get about 100-300kbps over EVDO though.
evdo
you could try running your carrier cab again (after deleting the existing modem connection for data). Verify that it is not weak signal by going somewhere with a known good evdo signal
Just curious... I have the Ev for data... but when I place a call, it changes to 1X.. Is this normal?

Yes. Just FYI the Data will not work while you are in a call unless you have WiFi turned on.
well, because its useful to others who might be in the same boat, I will continue replying, but I figure out another way to get data, and that was to get sprint to change my mogul into a touch pro...
I have run the carrier cab a couple of times now, and its verified that i have the crappy data, but i can't figure out how to get the HDR AN PASSWORD (Long) other than to do a dump, and i don't think i'm gonna go thru that trouble since i send the thing back tomorrow.

I have the same thing happen to me always, I will have full bars in EV, but when I make a call, it switches to 1X. This is the same for data.

The Ev means that youre in an area that has EvDo mobile broadband capability. When you make a phone call, that will always change to 1X because phone calls run via the 1XRTT network.
When you connect to the net, your phone will try firstly to connect to the EvDo mobile broadband network but because you dont have the correct EvDo password (HDR AN AUTH LONG password) it will instead drop down to the 1XRTT network.
I ended up getting a second hand Titan and made sure i wrote down the EvDo password before upgrading and flashing. So now when i hit the net, it doesnt go to 1X. The Ev icon stays the same which verifies that im on the EvDo broadband network instead of the 1XRTT network.
While connected to the EvDo mobile broadband network, you can still receive calls, texts. On the 1xRTT mobile broadband network, you wont be able to receive calls or texts.
Hope this clarifies things.

[Q] i717R + CM9 + Fido = no VOIP!!!

Folks, please give me a hand!
I have the Note from Rogers Canada, upgraded to CM9 release, my provider is Fido, and I'm struggling with getting VoIP work over 3G.
1. Native ICS client. It's OK on WiFi, and on 3G the call is being established in and out, but no sound either direction. I heard 3G calling was blocked in GB client, and there was even a method tweaking the APK to make it work, but obviously something is very different in ICS - that tweak is not applicable - I can't find proper file in this APK.
2. cSipSimple - does not work at all, makes the phone acting weird. Well, last update was in 2011, maybe not compatible with ICS at all.
3. SipDroid - crashes.
4. Dell Voice - crashes.
My provider is freephoneline.ca, and I'm testing VoIP with it without success. I'm a network engineer with rich VoIP experience, and run at home a sophisticated FreePBX setup accessible from Internet. I've tried to register my Note on my home PBX as an extension, and I see same behavior - phones ring, calls establish, but no sound.
I don't understand where's the trouble exactly. Is it the Note, or CM9, or my provider is allowing SIP but blocking RTP? I see that all three Fido's APNs are doing NAT, because the phone shows the registered IP that is different from what I see in whatismyip. Could it be the problem? Problems with NATting RTP usually result in no inbound voice, but outbound should be OK...
I wonder if there's a packet sniffer for Android so I could check the traces, LOL.
Whoever has some success doing SIP calling over Rogers/Fido 3G, please help me out.
Thanks!
Shameless self-bump.
Guys, I wonder if nobody knows, or nobody cares? I know it's most likely wrong forum to ask, please push me in right direction...

I had a similar setup on Telus, and everything works alright. And then I tried Rogers 3G, there is only one way audio, I can't hear anything. But the other side can hear me. And also, my phone can't receive incoming either.
It's probably a problem/restriction with Rogers.

Confirmed, with latest CSipSimple nightly build (Jeez, they didn't release since 2011!!!) I was able to make calls, now with one way audio (out), outbound but not incoming calls, and if the remote party hangs, the phone does not detect it.
Those symptoms are familiar - NAT can't properly handle UDP inwards. Both SIP and RTP are affected. Enabling STUN did not help either.
Well, I'm going to buy data only SIM from Bell, stay tuned...

Well, recently I've been at Rock Point (Lake Eerie), and both my personal Note (Fido) and business Blackberry (Rogers) had no signal on 3G and even GSM, while my friend was chattering and browsing on his Bell connected phone... Maybe Bell's 3G coverage is spotty, but so is Rogers. I've seen too many times that Rogers drops to GSM with no apparent reason, and that means no decent data for VoIP.
We'll see. I'm aiming at LTE anyways, and Bell's LTE spot is WAY bigger according to their official coverage maps.
Someone has to be a guinea pig for new technologies. I hate the idea of paying $70 for CityFido + data, while I could pay $25-$35 for Bell's flex plus $0 for FreePhoneLine.

Hmmm, I wonder how you did it, can't make it work.
Okay, now I'm on Bell 3G (no LTE yet).
1. Registering with FPL directly gives me outbound calls OK, inbound call get voicemail (on 3G), STUN has no effect. WiFi calling is fine.
2. Registering through PBXes and FPL - outbound calls even to VM gives me "488 / Not acceptable here" on 3G, works OK on WiFi. Incoming calls make my cell ring, but when I pick up the call I'm getting same 488 on 3G. What's wrong here?
Will try it on Fido 3G...

Yes, and it was a CSipSimple glitch.
By default it has SILK + PCMU + PCMA. I've left only PCMU and it stopped working on 3G only (WiFi was OK). Resetting CSipSimple to defaults resolved it. Weird...
BTW I doubt that PBXes only accepts ILBC, there's quite a number of codecs mentioned in their online help.

I've managed to recreate this eventually. I don't know what's so special about PBXes, but yes it works fine with both Fido and Bell 3G. Thanks for the clue! Looks like I'm going to eliminate my home FreePBX and switch to PBXes.
However, sound is choppy like hell on both, barely usable. And I'm still struggling to get LTE on Bell's SIM, hope it will improve things.
One more question - phonebook in my Android has all the numbers in international format - +1-xxx-xxx-xxxx, +7-xxx-xxx-xxxx etc. When I dial directly from my address book into CSipSiple->PBXes->FPL, FPL rejects the call saying it's not covered by my plan. I believe I need substitute +1 with 1, +7 with 0117 and so on, but how do I do this? PBXes is based on FreePBX, and its rules use + as a special character for adding prefixes I believe...

you are right, pbxes accept pcmu as well, but i thought it's too heavy for 3g, they allow g729a "PASSTHU" only to paid users.
for the choppiness, sip require packets loss way lower than 1%, i'm still trying to figure out what to do about that

for the number formats, since i have all numbers stored on google voice, i went there and deleted all "+" and "-"
in csipsimple, there's an option called filter, i think you can reformat there
a few more tweaks for the choppiness, I disabled echo cancelling since sound from ear piece is not likely to reach microphone.
I also have trouble with the new csipsimple, when i use ilbc, it will freeze after about 30 seconds.
if you directly connect to freephoneline.ca, you need to use PCMU in order to receive phone call over 3G, somehow freephoneline disabled g729a on incoming calls.
so much for today's tweaking. good luck, let me know what you find out

SIP as signalling protocol is doing fine. RTP transport for audio is a problem.
I believe nothing can be done over 3G. I'm trying to make it work over LTE - it's supposed to be much better.
However I figured out that unlocked I717R (Rogers) does not connect to Bell's LTE cloud however it should.
I'm going to flash the Bell's radio and try again. I wonder if there's just Bell's baseband for ICS I can download and burn with Odin. I have only found full stock ICS for Bell, and that's a long and messy update path.

Ok, another report.
1. After upgrading radio from Rogers to Bell, Bell LTE is pretty solid and stable while I'm in GTA.
2. Generally, VoIP over 3G is crap, both Bell and Fido/Rogers. VoIP over LTE is mostly OK. No surprise.
3. CSipSimple cannot properly handle Bluetooth handover. By some reason, the call always starts on speakerphone, then has to be routed manually either to BT or earpiece.
4. SIP keepalives are draining battery really fast, no matter if it's Wifi, 3G, or LTE.
5. PBXes.org is GROSS... I've stopped and dismissed my home FreePBX.
Fido has just started offering LTE. Tonight will try and upgrade my SIM card. I wonder though if I need to flash my radio back to Rogers to make it work...
General conclusion - VoIP over cell data is not ready yet for general use. However, geeks like me can save a few cents...
A few questions:
1. Is it possible to block voice cellular calls in and out? My Bell SIM card 'for tablets' still allows voice calls, and every time I'm hitting the wrong button I'm making 40 cents pay-per-minute charge. Customer service says it cannot be blocked on their side.
2. Is there any way to route SMS messages to VoIP and vice versa?
3. Is there a number portability between cell networks and VoIP operators (Canada and US, just to see a big picture)?
I believe this discussion is off-topic here. Can someone suggest a proper forum?
if you use csipsimple, you can disable mobile, if you use stock phone app, you can set use internet call only.
fongo supports sms now, i use google voice, with simonics
canadian numbers can port to fongo, US number can port to google voice

1. Is it possible to block voice cellular calls in and out? My Bell SIM card 'for tablets' still allows voice calls, and every time I'm hitting the wrong button I'm making 40 cents pay-per-minute charge. Customer service says it cannot be blocked on their side.
2. Is there any way to route SMS messages to VoIP and vice versa?
3. Is there a number portability between cell networks and VoIP operators (Canada and US, just to see a big picture)?
I believe this discussion is off-topic here. Can someone suggest a proper forum?

Thanks thunderzhao!
At the moment I decided to stop my VoIP over cellular experiments, this is not productive.
First, Fido has just offered unlimited national calling + 2Gb of data + convenience pack, all for $56, and it's a killer.
Second, new mobile version of Skype, however not SIP based, is soooo much simpler to deal with than SIP solutions. It has a super clear voice Skype-to-Skype (and video too), works seamlessly over firewalls and NAT, and has a decent quality over both HSPA and LTE.
Third, VoLTE is on the horizon (so I believe), and it will completely change the landscape of mobile services, plans, and prices.
Switching to waiting mode.
Fongo crashes on cm but works fine for me on cm10 and most touchwiz ICS ROMs.

S9+ will only make/receive voice calls in duo mode

Just what the title says. My phone tells callers that I'm not accepting calls and when I attempt to make calls it simply refuses to do so or displayed a "call ended" message without ever dialing the other person. Everything else works fine and I can even make voice calls if I use duo mode instead of mobile. I can also receive calls if the caller uses duo mode.
Have been through everything except an actual reset. Unable to do that since the phone was a hand-me-down and I don't know the PIN. I've about reached the point where I do a hard reset manually but I hate to lose my data. Does anyone have anything I could try to either bypass or recover the PIN or something I could use to get mobile mode to work again?
Your sure you have service? If you do, do you have credit? Both of those would prevent you making calls. You can still use Duo if your on WiFi or you have a data only service. If you are showing that your connected to the network and you are certain you have minutes in your plan or credit available then you will need to call your network provider so they can see if there's any network issues preventing your calls. Check the network operators status page to see if there's issues in your area.

It appears that when using a Galaxy S9+ with ATT service the phone is unable to do VoLTE
The way that I was able to have internet on the phone and voice calling was to go into the APN and set the Network Mode to 3G/2G (auto connect)
That fixed it for me. Still pissed off that I can't use LTE but oh well it will work until I upgrade the phone.

Hello, I have an unlocked s9 that is going through a similar issue in not being able to make or receive calls. Can you let me know how you got the APN settings for 3G/2G? Going to APN settings I only see the nxgenphone setting open and active, which I heard was for LTE.
Also, can you let me know what setting it has to be in the 4636 mobile network settings in order to restore data? Thanks
