was wondering, i have followed a tutorial on how to get eri on my cricket plan. i cant seem to edit the esn. i have my broken cricket phones esn, and i have the eris's esn as well.
everything is set up how it should be, but i cant seem to find a way to edit the esn to match the cricket phone, when i go under phone info(on the eris) it even says my cricket phone number. i have no service to the eris but service to the broken phone.
the tutorial i followed was this.........http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=675652
can anyone suggest another tutorial or another way?
this is killing me as i need to get my phone working.

You cant edit the phones ESN. You have to call cricket and change the ESN to the ERIS'.
I have a cricket account i want to reprogram my eris to work on cricket so ive read some of the thread on xda but i can't even get past step one the ##778 i dial that in and hit send and it take me to a verizon operator i have even tried ##778# and i have even tried not hitting send and see if it comes up automatically. i have also tried ##3424# same thing happens. ive downloaded QPST, eris diag drivers, and a cricket prl. i have also had trouble connecting my phone to QPST.if anyone can give me some help it would be much appreciated, please i cant go around with this pos phone cricket sent me!!!thanks
OK forget that question i figured it out, i was running cm7 i guess you can't do ##778 with cm, so i just flashed stock 2.1 with root and it worked like a charm now i did the QPST steps now im having problems connecting cdma workshop to my com port i dont know why any help?????
im getting error
Failed....Unable to open com7 port
Ok forget that question too i got it figured out lol got the phone fully programed to work on cricket
also if anyone has a better way of reprogramming this eris to work on cricket im am willing to try anything
glad you figured it out, I'm having problems with the APN and modding and installing the telephony.db file. Any chance you could help me out with a working cricket APN?
Is there a way to make my HTC EVO 4G work with metro pcs, or boost mobile?
I could have done this by myself, and although I was very lucky to find it, the problem is that it has been reported lost. I tried to return it but no luck, and since I currently have NO cell phone, I was hoping if there is some sort of method, like change the meid or esn or a shop that can flash it to metro, and still make it work. Preferably legal lol!
Please... =(
What service you want to switch to?
So I got a MetroPCS phone today, got home and started following this guide

However, after hitting write to phone, mine automatically restarts. Dunno if that was supposed to happen. When I try and make calls I get "TSL 02 the number or service code you are attempting is not available or accessible from your calling plan" and then the call is ended.
Did I do something wrong? I went into the metro PCS store and asked about putting my ESN in the database and they looked at my like I was speaking latin. So I asked about metroflash and they said they don't do that to this phone. Any ideas or help is greatly appreciated. Verizon was taking too long for the nexus galaxy and I really don't want to sign another contract...
I did flash the metro 3022.prl

If metropcs isn't used anymore, what do I put?
And thats the thing, I went to a authorized dealer and asked for metroflash, they said they cannot do my phone. So I asked them just to add my esn to the database and I'll do the hard work. and they looked at me like they didn't know what I was talking about...

Unfortunately no, I see it does replace a framework, but that isn't even part of thr problem I am having. When I asked about metroflash at the authorized dealer they didn't really have a clue was I was talking about. But I'm going to the corporate store today to get the metroflash done. Should still work right?

Just got back from 7 metro PCS stores including a corperate one, appears they refuse to add my ESN into the system, or even add a line for this phone. They will NOT metroflash it.
And apparently "All these kids are learning to unlock their phones and they want to add them to our network"
I have the $50/m plan that is required for smart phones. I searched metro pcs esn on craigslist nothing came back. I now have NO idea how to get this phone to work...
EDIT: I just tried doing *611 on my 3vo after "flashing" it to metropcs and it takes me to sprint's customer service. does that mean I did it wrong?
Just go to a dealer store. Most corporate stores stores dont wanna do smartphones(some will). But if you go to a dealer store they will houdini your phone. Which is where they write an esn from a phone in their inventory to your phone to get it into the network.When they flash it it will do the prl part for you. And if you already have the data provisioned everything will work from the time they flash it.
Reflasing on Sprint Data not working
Sorry not to hijack the thread but I think someone here might have the expertise to help me with the issue. I have a evo 3d that was flashed to Metro. I wanted to flash it back to Sprint, I cleaned the esn. Voice and txt works but data does not. I keep getting error code 67. upon more research i found out that i needed to copy NAI and AAA and HA secrets. Which I made sure were correct. However, I still keep getting error 67. Can anyone help me on how to get 3g data working? thanks in advance.
So are you trying to set up for metro or sprint?

trying to set up on sprint...
after fixing the clean esn and meid, my voice and sms worked fine...
data not working not even 1x. copied over the profile 0 and profile 1, including AAA and HA secrets but still does not work. When i tried hands free activation, i keep getting error 67 and profiles are wiped out.
Yea that error is because your not connecting to data. I know sprint you can zero out the ha and AAA. Where you used to have your metro msl code that needs to be replaced with your meid hex. Your gonna also need to make sure your sid/nid are those for Sprint. I do now know those off hand. One thing you can try to get those settings back is flashing a new radio it will contain the nv items you need for those spots.

That's what I thought I did, The in Evo 3d, using QXDM, i set addresses 465, 466, 1192, 1194. one of the user id was my [email protected] and another one was [email protected]
AAA was 'secret' and HA secret, i copied over from the old working phone.
Just to try I also did, ##SPC# (SPC= my spc code) and reset my data, after it rebooted the phone it tried doing hands free activation but it would error out again...
i feel like i am so close yet little further from working outcome..
Yea I'm not familiar enough with sprint settings try asking some of the people in the boost flashing threads they will know all the sprint settings. You have a sprint prl right? Not one of the hybrid ones to roam with vzw

Yeah I have the Sprint prl 21081 and PRI 1.24_003
It is not the latest PRL, but should it even matter which version i have? i thought PRL was only for roaming settings?
That will make all the difference when it cones to calling customer service if you have a metro prl it will call metro Ect. Ect. But sounds like you got that. There's threads on flashing back to sprint do an advanced search here and if its not here its on android forums it might be for EVO 4g but settings are the same on 3d

Only 1 metro store within 20 miles will flash my phone.
And they charge $63! I could just buy houdini master key for 50!
They also said that they have never successfully flashed a EVO 4G...
Can some1 sorta explainthe process of flashing to metro i had my Evo flashed by a guy that im sure knows what he is doing and everything went smooth. Now my sis and bro both got themselves Evos but this dude keeps on givin the run around and switching up the prices one phone was already being used w. Metro when bought but he insists that it needs to be "reflashed" (since its been on metro b4 wouldnt he just have to activate it to the existing acct?) the other has never been flashed. what im mostly wondering is, besides adding the esn into metro network is there anything else that MUST be done by a metro dealer? Is this thread for actual flashing or for provisioning like bloody's guide?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
You won't find any guides that truly show how to flash. Technically all the guides here do show you how to flash them. But metro is using a differnt method to flash now. So its not as simple as giving them your esn to have it added. They write an esn from a metro branded phone to yours. As far as the one that was flashed already all you need to do is call metro from it. Then provision the data from bloody or jds guide in order to get web and mms.

i nevered seen this little guide right here... haha....
what happens is this,
msid 9412333323 or 9412340237 or 7272271341
u can use this number i think, any metro msid number near u. i had these saved, from my new evo, and old touchpro,
u have to use a metro number for it to connect or something...
I did both of the following steps..
I did bloodys provision and at the same time i looked for the msid num.
in qpst u need to go through all the pages, i think i found the old number in 2 or 3 spots... if its a number change..
in DFS...
MIN A = USE ur 10 digit phone number,
MIN D = USE the msid number,
add any metropcs prl and u should connect to metro before any flash, change ur number or whatever...
i manually flash my 2 evos, but the 1st metroflash to add the esn, the internet and mms worked out the door,
The second in ebay 45 to add the esn, then I dialed *228 and it worked..worked on the first shot,,, after it was added.. it was activated with my acct.. yeah..
edit: 12-23
##3282# under ADVANCED u will see MSID
I have a Thunderbolt that I got activated on Verizon. The 4g works, but the reps keep saying that the 3g side was flashed to cricket. I can get texts, but 3g and voice calls are not working. Anyone know how to get this thing back on Verizon?
There is a post in Development that you could read on.
Can you link me to it?
Look here & then just search for what you need

I have a cricket flashed thunderbolt, and I dont know if on verizon *228 send works (it doesnt on cricket) but if it does than this is an easy fix, should be able to load a verizon prl using cdma workshop to the phone and update. if not it will be a little bit more involved but should be easlily doable
