I recently activated a HTC evo3d for sprint. Its my friend's. Calls and texts work fine but there is no 3g or 4g. Are there any fixes for this. The phone was previously hacked but I restored it by flashing a sprint RUU.

Just call Sprint. They'll first tell you to dial ##"your MSL"# > Edit Mode and look at your MDN and MSID numbers to see if they match up to what they have on file. If they do, then they'll tell you to go back and dial ##3282# > Edit Mode > Enter your MSL > Data Profile > Menu Key > Restore. This will restore the data profile and go through the activation process again.
Most of the time the above will be the fix, but if it doesn't they'll tell you there must be an outage in your area, even though they don't see it reported, and then they'll do absolutely nothing, at least that's what they've done to me 5-10 times now. Data has been out of whack for me lately and I don't think I'm the only one.

If the phone was previously on another account it has to be fully wiped vía ##RTN#, since you have it up and running you could do a ##SCRTN# which will reset the NAI values. That should clear up your connection issues.

Call sprint and let them restore ur data file. If the other methods don't work that you've been helped with on this thread, then they have to completely erase and restore the profile on their end that only they can do on ur account . Happened to me once

What PRL? Have you tried updating your PRL?
Try calling sprint and ask for a reset.
Also check ur phone in another city (maybe ur hanging around in one area?) I lost 3g at home when lightning struck a tower and only had 1x for a week.
Ohter times, i have 1x and i just have to turn mobile network off and on to get it back.
Check your prl. I know I was stuck on 1x for a while because a prl borked my 3g. Thankfully I'm usually on wifi anyway.
I was stuck on 1x for about 3 months and it was pissing me off. I went in to sprint and they did a reset and it fixed it. You can have sprint reset it over the phone but you have to call from a different phone.
U can reset it yourself by doing this just make sure you are in a decent service area.
##72786#
select edit and enter MSL
select menu and then Reset
After phone goes through hands free activation and your back at your dialer, enter this:
##3282#
select edit and enter MSL
select data profile
select menu and select Restore
After your rebooted and back at your home screen go into settings/system updates/ and update your profile.
Make sure you are on a Rom that has the ability to update your profile.
I got stuck on 1x once and this re provisioning worked and I didn't need to call sprint.

This is effectively the same method sprint will have you do when you call for the reset. Some times it still doesn't work without them doing something on their end though. Also it's unlikely he knows what his master subsidy lock code is. If you don't know it call sprint they will have you do this and tell you what your MSL is.
Ok . I have done all of everyone's ideas . I am on prl 21083 .
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
Alright that worked. I flashed the 21083 prl and the 21081 prl in the same recovery session then did ##72786# then rebooted and it went through the hands free stuff and let it update the prl from the 21081 to the 21083 and bama I got my 3g back. Thank u for it help and suggestions

Awesome! I have been stuck on 1x for days now, went to the Sprint store twice, and called customer care 4 times with no luck. My speedtest results were .12-.13mbps average, now they're .75-.85mbps which isn't the best (Verizon is a constant 1.5mbps here) but after looking at the cost to switch to Verizon and what i'd be losing, I'm so glad you guys got my back! Thanks!
I have a sprint evo 3d which was flashed to reliance.
I activated it and it worked very well.
I was using infected eternity and I went to ##data# > edit mode > data profile and i mistakenly preesed menu>restore. My phone rebooted and like Day 1 it asked for activation.....Its already activated and works fine. I switched to MIUI and the issue was solved but when i came back to another sense ROM it again ask me for activation Any way to fix this?
Let it activate. I occasionaly hit ##3282# and wipe my data profile. It sometimes fixes slow data speeds and messages not being received. If you were to call Sprint and say My 3G or 4G is broken, this is what they'd tell you to do.

Sorry, I thought reliance was a ROM. Now I see its a cellular service provider. If I could suggest anything, I'd say try going through the process of flashing to reliance again. It may be the only way to stop the prompt.

Hi,
I also did same thing last night with my Motorola sprint mobile(using on Reliance india)..Please share if you have any information regarding the solution...Please...you can mail to [email protected]
Hey Guys,
Ive done a search and havent come up with a concrete answer why my phone is not getting mobile network. Im able to connect with wifi but as soon as i leave wifi I have no luck. Im using Virtous Shooter v.3.0.5 and an HTC Evo 3D GSM. With the rooting and such the only thing I made a mistake on was in the revolutionary setup i selected CDMA and the incorrect HBoot. Could you guys give me a hand letting me know.
Thanks
MrToast
In addition im able to make and receive calls and text messages its just connecting to the internet when wifi is unavailable.
I can pay $5 via paypal to the person who helps me out fix this issue
You need to add the correct apn settings for your carrier under mobile network. Menu-settings-mobile network-access point names-menu add and then enter the settings then hit menu then save.
Just google your apn settings for your carrier or call and ask them for the proper settings, but google is quick and easy.

I have the same problem sometimes.
Everything is correct in the settings.
I also have a connection to mobile network. But I often get a timeout...
On other Roms no problems.
Hey guys,
I've been searching all over the tubes/threads and can't find a legit answer.
I have an EVO OG on Boost. Working 3G.
I have done all the standard steps in flashing the info over to the LTE.
I am able to get text/talk, but no 3G.
Specs:
S-ON
1.15 hboot
1.05.11.0606 radio
Donor: Evo OG > TP2
All keys, msl, important numbers acquired.
Flashed talk/text
I have QPST, QXDM, DFS 4.0.0.3, CDMA 2.7
There must be some step to flashing LTE phones. I've seen the SGSIII thread and the only different steps there are the PAP name ([email protected]), and I've seen members mentions 466_1 nams, and checking certain parameters and unchecking others, and none of it works.
Profile update gets error code 1233 so I can't even try that.
I'm at my wits end with this phone. I'd get CDMAWS3.8.7 if I knew for sure it'll get my 3G working. But others have got it without the software. What's missing from the standard incog/donor to EVO OG steps? Help guys.
YES
Alright! Got it working!
IDK about anyone else, but here's exactly what I did. I pray it helps at least one other out there!!
I was on hboot 1.15, custom rom, rooted, unlocked BLer, the works.
I flashed to Boost the EvoOG way. Got talk and text, no data working. Error 67/no 3G signal on Profile 1 (on prof 0 there was a 3g signal, but no connection)
Update Profile was the ONLY method I could not attempt because of Error 1233.
*Error 1233: Turns out this is some sort of connection issue between phone and sprint servers from what I gather. Some said it had to do with root, but I unrooted and still had this issue. Others said it was HTC specific. More on this later...
So to update profile, I decided to go ALL the way back to Stock.
Unrooted.
Relocked via ADB (fastboot oem lock)
DL'd stock Jewel Rom (unfortunately, put me up to 1.19 hboot from 1.15. No other RUU worked -- all said bootloader error except for this one, so I just went with this one.)
Once that was done, I tried updating Profile on my fresh phone.
Error 1233.
I reflashed Nams and Profile data and NV items.
Error 1233 on profile update. No 3G.
I did ##768#, reset everything. I was going to attempt to do another clean flash of Nams etc...
Phone reset information.
Here's the good part:
On android attempting Hands Free Activation, it failed. It then said "If you are not with rep, press activate", bringing up the hands free self-service screen. It failed, saying no connection, bla bla.
I went to standard android setup, and here's what I think did the trick:
-I made an HTC Account on the spot
-I connected to WiFi when directed
-Left location services on
Once done, it tried to activate AGAIN, and said "If you are not with rep, press actiavte"
Brings up the self-service screen, and for some magical reason,
It validated my account, showed my boost number, and now I've got talk, text, web on my Evo LTE on Boostmobile.
Went online, dled apps, checked ##debug#, and EVDOrevA for true 3G.
I strongly believe HTC account setup is what allowed the phone to bypass Error 1233. Or not. But it's the one variable that changed of my MANY tries. Perhaps having an HTC account allows the phone to use that HTC update profile service? In the description of the account setup it said "and allows you to connect to HTC software updates...", and I lumped this with update PRL firmware, profile, and HTC update, so I went and made an account via wifi.
Well! That's it! Hope it helps. Maybe someone can make more sense of it.
Special thanks to "iBlowpot" for giving some tips, albeit they didn't work, it's nice that at least one person tried to help.
I can confirm this is wierd but worked for me on 2 evo lte make sure it is on cdma only no lte thought. Great job

I don't think most of you fully understand what happens when you perform the ESPT command ##786# (## RUN#), this is one of 2 types or of factory resets.
- The traditional Factory Reset that you normally do from either the settings menu> Back-up /Reset or from a Recovery (TWRP or CWM), only removes and your Google Account settings, it it does not change the Radio and Hardware settings within the phone. It does not remove your settings to MDN, MSID or Network Radios (basically the way the phone identifies with the network)
- ## RUN# > Reset, removes ALL phone identity modifications to the phone, less MEID , HEX, and DEC changes, and thus is a TRUE factory reset as it will remove your M.IP Usernames, MDN, MSID, and other settings that identify the phone to a network, thus leaving your phone with the ability to get back on the network upon reprogramming of account identities
You should only use this when flashing or giving/selling to phone to someone to prevent them from using your account or info. Use the traditional factory reset when simply trying to clear out your settings and not changes carriers or phone numbers.
So I bought an Evo LTE off of Craigslist, and called Sprint to ensure that the MEID DEC was clear to activate on the network. I was given the green light by them.
Unfortunately, I'm only able to activate Voice and SMS when on my line. I've spent countless hours with Sprint techs trying to get the data to work but to no avail. We tried many different dialer codes and still no luck. One thing of note, they had the wrong MSL in their system for this phone. I rooted the phone and used MSL reader to find the right code but still unable to activate data.
FWIW, the MSL is 000000 and after doing some research I've seen that MSL is when the phone is flashed over to Cricket? But it's strange because I'm able to activate voice and SMS just fine, just no cellular data (wifi is fine).
Any ideas? At this point the person isn't being responsive for a refund and I might just have to write this off, but it sucks regardless.
Have you tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2137826
Check it out you might need to do a complete wipe as stated in this thread in the last resource:
4. This is your last step before calling sprint (which i have never had to, this has always worked for me).
THIS WILL WIPE EVERYTHING IN DATA/APP AS WELL AS YOUR INTERNAL SD! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED SO MAKE A BACKUP
Enter Dialer
##786#
select menu and select reset
enter msl and select ok
After phone goes through "hands free activation" go into settings/system updates/ and update your profile and you should be set
Make sure you thank this guy: gunfromsako for this helpful thread... Good luck!
I hadn't tried the ##786# yet and it worked!!!!!
Thank you SO much for your insight.
No problem, be sure to thank the Op from that link that I sent you, he made that helpful guide that I have used myself a lot with my two replacements, anyways I'm glad you was able to get your issue resolved :beer:
