can the electrify( rebadged photon) be put on page plus?
(((""" Newbie guide to programming droid bionic with 3g data on pageplus
1.get a 4glte sim card.
2. factory data reset phone
3. Activate phone by using the first 15 characters of the imei (drop 1 character from the end)
4. Push pageplus prl to phone. (I do not know how to link download files to this forum yet)
I used cdma workshop 3.8 demo version
A.put phone in diagnostic mode power off, hold up and down buttons and power back on, select bp tools at the bottom by button down to it and button up to select bp tools
B. Connect phone to computer open up cdma workshop go to ports and select the one that says diag it should be the one at the bottom.
C. Click connect to connect phone
D. Go to main tab click spc send 000000 to unlock phone, go to other tab to load pageplus prl to phone, select write and find your prl file and it should write it to the phone.
5. Insert sim card.
6. Restart phone. Phone should OTA program. 7. dial *#*#4636#*#* go to phone information go to cdma auto prl and change it to cdma only
Back out of that
8. dial ##program go to test mode next over to evrc hdr hybrid mode change network type to cdma and back out phone will restart
(check menu/settings/phone status make sure mobile network type says CDMA 1xrtt and you have 1x data)
9. dial *#*#4636#*#* go to phone information go to cdma and change it to cdma auto prl
Back out of that
10. Power down and remove sim card and power up.
11. dial ##program go to test mode next over to evrc hdr hybrid mode change network type to cdma and evdo phone will restart
(check menu/settings/phone status make sure mobile network type says CDMA EvDo rev A. if it says eHRPD redo steps 10-14.)
12. dial *#*#4636#*#* go to phone information go to cdma auto prl and change it to unknown
Back out of that
(check menu/settings/phone status make sure mobile network type says CDMA EvDo rev A. if it says eHRPD redo steps 10-15.)
13. Power down phone, replace sim card power up you should have 3g and talk and text
this is the pageplus prl that i used http://www.4shared.com/file/qryS5x4T/51720_EVDO.html """))) - copied from droid bionic forum also using 4g..... even though electrify distant Have 4g

Ill ask my friend but I think they only take verizon phones, now I think you could do straighttalk just have to flash to GSM their plans are about the same price

the only reason I have us cellular is fort cdma... no gsm networks work around me.. and us cellular barely works. i mostly roam on vzw

I checked it out for you and the website only asks for a cdma phone. My suggestion is go to the nearest pageplus store and ask them directly. It wouldnt hurt to try
have no idea where a page plus store is.... will try to find one...
and them if data and so on didn't work how do I make it work?

so a couple of things online about Houdini unlock and a couple other places say my electrify can be put on page plus by changing prl, and in and changing mdn and min..... having both internet and mms work.... however it says doing same with photon has 4g too. 4g in photon is wimax so.... I know it wouldn't work. should I chance it?

If its a wimax phone then u flash it just like any other sprint/uscellular etc phone to page plus. And since it's a wi max 4g you couldn't put it on Straight Talk's gsm side even if u wanted to cause it won't have a sim card slot.

alright, well how about electrify? 3g device, does have a sIM card slot but I doing need anything gsm anyway. no gsm network works around here
Sent from my Motorola Electrify using xda app-developers app
you need an msl code found through asite that unlocks phones, try this site http://reseller.blowfishunlocks.com/index.php
its very difficult to get a full flash, my friend got one to work with 1x only. make sure youre using the proper software to flash also
---------- Post added at 08:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:12 PM ----------
i think it might be easier flashing a gsm radio on it
I don't think you need to deal with the gsm though, I believe the gsm services are locked in the states, even if you unlock it, it's simply not going to accept ATT or tmob
3g will work on the evdo rev A, wimax i'm not sure but 3g isn't that slow
Just wondering if you've already flashed or not I also want to get one for pp, but saw no instructions online. I only need voice, SMS and 3G going that's all

I was able to put a motorola photon in PP, got talk and text though. I did the same thing you did with the electryfi. push a PP PRl and manually program it.
I did that thing long ago and no data?

Ok so i bought this razr off of craigslist and its a solid device so i dont want to give up on it it seems that it has been flashed to an unknown carrier all i know is the phone number that shows up in settings is area code 323 and wont go away i tried to activate it at a verizon and they got it all set up on their end but the device itself wasn't cooperating the rep at verizon tried to make a test call but it kept going to an automated message saying my account is out of funds and can not complete this call wtf? And we checked to see if the phone number changed it aaaand it didnt After three techs over the phone we couldn't get the damned thing to work The device wouldn't connect to verizons phone/text network but we did manage to get get lte i went to settings to see if i can update to 4.0 because its still running 2.3.6 but the button was greyed out... so im assuming its sum sort of rom made for a different carrier but im probably wrong
Any help i would immensely appreciated i use this device on wifi and even on gb i like it its so sweet i really wanna set this bad boy up

You need qpst cdma workshop. Google razr on cricket or metro pcs and follow those steps but install prl from vzw. Also check to see if phone is in cdma only mode.

Im in the same boat trying to help a friend. I have qpst and CDMA WS already. Could someone help me install a verizon prl back onto this Razr. Thanks guys.
Looking for some advice. I searched as best that I could, with the keywords that I could think of. So far nothing came up for the problem that I am having.
I got a Droid X2 from a friend. It has a clean ESN. the phone was hard reset, so I had to deal with bypassing the VZW activation process (touch all four corners) to get it to load my settings. This went smooth and I had no issues. I got the X2 to replace the Droid 2 Global that I was using on Net10. I paid the $15 bucks to register the Droid X2 on Net10's network. This went smooth as well. I called Net10, gave them the MEID from the X2 and waited for the transfer to occur. Once My Droid 2 Global stopped working a few minutes later, I dialed *22890 from the X2, but I could not activate the phone on Net 10. I kept getting a message saying the "we are unable to program your phone at this time". I figured out that the X2 was trying to activate the phone from Verizon before it would let me complete the *22890 call to Net10. Has anyone else had to deal with this issue as well? What do I need to to do to prevent the phone from reaching out to VZW first, before allowing me to complete the call to Net10?

I registered mine a few months ago, I don't remember having to dial a specific number, I just used the Verizon activation.
When I switched to cm9, I had issues because the activation wouldn't let me enter a number but I just waited and it completed. I plan on moving back to eclipse so I'll try and get back to you on how it went for me.
I recently rooted my phone with Casual's method. Everything went smooth on the flash.
Except I am unable to activate the phone through the verizon *228 method.
when I dial *228 it just says physically on the phone "A Verizon Sim card has activated your service and updated your phones roaming capability"
but then I got to call someone and it says I have no service.
I also transferred my service to my old Droid X while I did the rooting just in case that has anything to do with it.
Someone please help, at this point im about to return it to stock.

*228 is for 3G devices that have no sim. Thats what Ive been told and what ive experienced. Now you said no service, are you getting any bars or is it no bars at all. Have you tried going to mobile setting and toggling lte/3g mode. Also have your tried the hidden setting either by dialer and changing lte/gms/3g modes and then going back. Sometimes it may get stuck in a radio mode that doesnt get signal like in gms mode. I had been in the same situation and fixed it by doing the above.
New Sim card probably. That's your best bet

*228 is only for CDMA devices only, not CDMA/LTE. Your problem is that you activated a non-SIM device on your account after having a SIM device active. Doing so de-activated your SIM card, so you're going to have to go to a VZW store, or call VZW to get a new SIM to have service on your phone again.
Hey guys,
I have had this Droid RAZR for a while, It was a Verizon contract phone then after the contract was up I flashed it to Page Plus 3G. Well I went ahead and bought a S3 and no longer need the RAZR. I sold it to my girlfriends brother, he is on Verizon contract. I put the SIM in and it didn't change things like the SID, PRL Version, etc. I went through the phone turning on the 4G, using ##7764726, entered SPL, choose 14, sim type back to commercial, turned bbpanic off, the back to menu, choose 06, next, next, change network mode to LTE, CDMA, EVDO, AND GSM. The 4G data works, however when I attempt to make a phone call I get a message saying "welcome to verizon wireless, your mobile number is either not active or not working".
I hope someone can help me. I surely don't want to make my girlfriends family mad as many of you could surely understand. A happy woman=a happy life. Okay, thanks guys.
Can I use a RTN (Return to Network) ## code to make this happen? I've tried the one for my Galaxy s3 but it doesn't work on the RAZR.
Just use Rsd lite to flash it back to stock thats it.

Or, just use Matt's utility to flash back to stock ROM. See first post at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192467
