[Q] Flashing from Verizon to Cricket - Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE

I will say right now, I'm a total noob, and could have possibly picked the WORST device to try flashing from Verizon to Cricket, but I have SCOURED the internet, and the more I read, the more I do with this phone, the more confused I become.
I tried (and failed):
* Loading a custom PRL onto the phone with CDMA Workshop 2.7 (Phone will not load with QRST)
* Changing ANY data in the NAM/CDMA Configuration and have the phone remember
* Seeing if there might be a custom ROM available.
So my question is: WHERE DO I START!?

Since I've had so much free time with my phone, I actually got the thing flashed.
Between QPST and the right PRL, my Incredible 4G LTE is now capable of utilizing my talk and text. The last thing I have to do is program an APN for the phone, so my question has changed now.
After going under Settings -> Mobile Network -> Access Point Names -> Create New APN
I tried creating a new one but the default APN (VZWINTERNET) remains default and I can't seem to add any new APNs on the phone. I already have the settings for making the APN work, but does anyone know a fix for the phone not remembering new APNs?

No, and I figured I would have to. So now I'm working on rooting the phone unless you already know how.
So once I have it rooted, it's as simple as rewriting over the default APN?

So far, just completed this walkthrough: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1986346
Fingers crossed it all works and I can load my custom ROM.
EDIT/UPDATE: So I completed the full bootloader unlock! YAY! Now to try and load the Venom ROM. Ideally, everything will work after loading the new ROM.
So it turns out, I still can't root this phone.... I have unlocked the boot loader, but USB Fastboot doesn't appear.
I'd rather edit the post than make new posts. Fixed the damn thing. I can load TWRP recovery, but now I can't seem to get Viper LTE to load right, it keeps the damn stock ROM. I've tried ROM Manager, and now trying GooManager.

Okay, so I was able to not get the Venom LTE like I thought I wanted, so instead I have Cyanogen 10.1, but the problem is, now I either need to...
A: Get the phone into DIAG mode (AKA ##3424)
B: Program settings for the Cricket network
C: Find a Cricket-specific distro of Cyanogenmod.
So random question time: Does the ROM have to be 100% the device I'm trying to alter? I.e. I cannot use an Incredible 2 ROM on an Incredible 4G LTE?

You need stock to flash than flash the romantic you want.

Do not use another device's ROM on this phone!
A) Does *#*#4636#*#* not come up? (EDIT: Fixed typo)

1) You're clearly artificially inflating your post count so you can post in the dev section (which goes to show that you don't understand the purpose of the dev section)

Right now, *#*#3646#*#* gets me nothing, and my download from goo.im has been throttled to 4.8 Kbps... I must have offended them. Anyway, I'll give the nightly a try, unless you know of other codes that gets into DIAG mode? Maybe under the developer tools?

I don't see an option for DM Command Service, which is what I really need. I need to program my phone with the QPST software like I can with the stock ROM.
Of course, I've already flashed the stock ROM, but when it's obliterated for the NEW ROM, my phone dumps the CDMA settings. Also, where might those be stored? If I do a "dirty flash" to CM10.1, maybe I can keep where I programmed my Mobile Directory Number and all that info?
Also, I've already tried *#*#3424#*#*, *#*#PROGRAM#*#*, *#*#DATA#*#* and nothing seems to go through to get the DM Command Service.

This seems unnecessary. Have you tried the following in cm-10.1? In build.prop change these lines:

So where's my MDN stored? Or is it all inferred from the APN? I don't need to load a PRL?
Keeps coming back with SIM Card Added, reboot to access network. Cricket doesn't use GSM...
Doesn't work. Need to load a PRL onto the phone. When I dial *611, it gives me Verizon Wireless.

If you had read the first post of CM, you'd realize that you're just supposed to hit back when "SIM Card Added" comes up. I have successfully used QPST on this phone. See post 5 of this thread.
I take it Cricket is a sim-less CDMA carrier? If this is the case, then build.prop probably isn't sufficient. This is then outside of my realm of knowledge.

Infrastructure Mode WiFi Tether (Bounty Thread)

There have been several threads on this subject, including the most recent here.
In a nutshell:
The current Wifi tether application, avalable at http://android-wifi-tether.googlecode.com, can only run in adhoc mode on the DX2. Unfortunately, many devices can only connect to Wifi hotspots running in 'infrastructure mode.'
I will start the bounty at $10 for a Wifi tether app that can successfully share my DX2 as a hotspot running in infrastructure mode.
This can only be done by editing the kernel which can only be done by unlocking the bootloader. You're better off contributing the money into unlocking the bootloader.

Will an unlocked bootloader allow any hacks to get qpst to work? On the fascinate, that was the most reliable way to get infrastructure mode to work using the stock hotspot app.

Qpst works. I used it to set my vocoder to evrc-wb and removed the [email protected] to allow tethering.

Apparently qpst works until you reboot and then the file gets overwritten, althugh I have not tried myself.

Ok, I did the following steps (see attachments) and after all this it still brings me to the vzw launcher page telling me how to add the service to my account.
Well, so much for that!
This is new. I was tethering about a month ago then I had to do a *228 so the fix was lost.
So is this the end of free tethering?
Thanx for the pics BTW.

Yeah, they fixed the loophole. I did several attempts, tried both @vzw.com, @vzw3g.com.
Hate that I did all those sceenshots for nothing, but maybe someone will come across this, even for a different phone. I found one in the Fascinate forums that clarified a few things for me.
wow, and to think on my TP2 a single readily available .cab did this
Radiocomm Worked For Me, Mobile Hotspot Works Fine.
Edit: Rebooted The Phone And Settings Did Stick Allowing To Still Use Mobile Hotspot For Free.

Diagnostic mode in non-sense ROM?

All you have to do is add net.tethering.noprovisioning=true to your build.prop file and then you can remove or freeze the entitlement check app if you want to. Sprint model requires ro.mot.tether_dun_required to change from 1 to 0.
For people who don't want to mess with modifying their build.prop file or use xposed. I made an app which requires Root, that will run a setprop command to bypass the check until you reboot. If you want it to last after a reboot you can select apply of boot to run the command after every reboot. This was tested and confirmed by cvhovey thanks to him for testing it for me, since I have free tethering. This is my first app so I hope you Enjoy it! I want to say thanks to jcase's slapmymoto and the developer of adaway, I used their github sources as references when I couldn't get something working. Also androidicons for the icon template, and Poliva for setpropex, and jduck for getting setpropex working on KitKat.

nah, the last big script i did for people was teh first nexus toolkit, nowadays i hop around trying to help out unloved devices (hence teh name of the team i made Official Unloved Devices Hit Squad ). people needed this anyways, my stock rom was based on the pre-ota camera fix apparently. i had considered getting this phone on republic wireless so i wanted to scope out how development was coming, saw nothing was going on and figured id help out .

Wha?! I never saw it Shabby. My bad, let me rephrase,
FINALLY! The second rom for the Sprint variant :').... I Love you! haha.
Hey guys, I just wanted to update and say it won't boot on the Verizon dev edition like the T-mobile rom will. It freezes for me on the Moto Earth boot animation. Noo! Well darn, I was wanting to try the sprint rom to see if I could get google wallet tap to pay working on my vzw dev phone since no one has figured out how to make tap to pay work on the non-sprint variants.
I booted the deodex version just fine on my vzw Dev edition. I wiped my data and wiped cached before flashing. I didn't try g wallet

YES!!!! It worked!!! LOL. Anyway, have you/anyone noticed anything when trying to alter the stock boot.img? Seems like anything I tried (not a whole bunch really) with the kernel/boot.img made it non-bootable? Pretty much if it hits the bootloader unlocked screen and doesn't vibrate.....its a no go? Wondering if theres some type of checksum for the boot.img? Not too sure about wallet ATM. Don't really use it, and this is based off the OTA so....I'd assume it should be fine? I remember some stuff way back on this, may have to step back and see if there's something to utilize. This isn't my first rodeo.....but it's the first one I've entered.:laugh:

what command are you using to pack the boot.img?

Yeah I wipe three times before flashing and I wiped cache and dalvik again before booting. I wonder what the issue is. I downloaded the odex and not deodex but I don't see it being the difference between booting and freezing. Hmm. I'm back on the T-Mobile rom now. I'll have to try again with the deodex tomorrow

Was just using the kitchen tool. Anytime I touched the boot.img it wouldn't boot up..... Or it would not vibrate at the splash screen, boot up, but not "see" user touches on the screen. Acted like the digitizer was totally off. Something I noticed is if it vibrates at the splash, it was good. No vibrate, definitely something would be wrong. Going to take my time with it next week.

I recommend wiping system and data too and trying. Just make a backup first. And/or try using your normal boot.img instead of the one in the zip.

i take it then you arent packing the Device tree file to the boot.img.
http://pastebin.com/tSGxTmYq save this script, run it against stock boot.img. youll get a DTB.img, extract your boot.img, edit what you want in ramdisk or swap zimages. then use a modified mkbootimg to include the dtb file as part of it all

I got the sprint deodex rom booting on my vzw dev edition doing like you said. But sadly I found google wallet would not work. It just sat saying "finishing up a few things." So I guess unfortunately there is a hardware issue preventing wallet from working on the non-sprint variants. That sucks!!!
I don't understand why but I noticed between the t-mobile, verizon, and sprint roms that the signal bars are slightly different on every one. Sprint's seems to be stretched out a little more and have an extra bar or two. I hate all of them though because the grey has some funky white lines through it where the separations are instead of being solid grey. I don't know what was wrong with the stock android signal bars that none of the carriers wanted them
I have a question regarding safestrap, can I use it to unlock my bootloader and just flash this to my nand? I dont want to waste my space on rom slots :\

Honestly have no clue about SS. I would have to say no. No sure what needs to be done for it to be SS flashable.
Added 4.4 links. Thank abiezer for letting me link to his deodex 4.4 build HERE!
I plan on adding the SPRINT specific firmwares, and more in due time.

Bruhh, download an app called "Hidden Settings" open it, open "testmenu" or some sh*t like that, & then phone info, then click the top right corner (3dots) icon, then switch ur bands, try hotswapping the sim card, try downloading another carriers modem files, using Hiemendall on a linux box, there are ways, as somebody JUST recently reported this phone booting up T-Mobile just by simply sticking a T-Mobile SIM into the slot .

This is advice from a dude currently stuck in Setup Wizard, using it as a wifi hotspot somehow? ahahahahaha :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::good:

Okay do you have it rooted bro? I couldn't open my hidden settings app until I rooted with kingoroot, + used root essentials to open it , there may be some build.prop or CSC edits needed to handle other SIM cards or enable the ability to connect to those carriers APN. I have not tried any other SIM cards yet, as I need to fix an LG G2 to have a hotspot lol.

google an app called "Super-sume" & then afterwards, download SuperSu & update the binary using the "normal" method, reboot just to make sure you have the most stable root available,
for the hidden menu download "root essentials" app, open your "device info" there will be yet another link to the hidden menu app, opens like a charm on mine.

forgive me for pushing but are u sure to update binary with supersu? i have read others bricking thier device with the process and as u know we done have custom recovery so no back-ups no stock firmware. have u tried updating the binary with supersu on ur sm-j100vpp and succeed without bricking? thanks so far

You need to specifically google and download from some 3rd party site (i can only find the pro on play store for some reason) an app called "Super-SUme"
And run that, then download SuperSU, I believe the exact version I use is the v2.46 (forced system mode) one but have also downloaded the recent play store release as I literally have to root everytime I want out of setupwizard mode -.-.
No worries bro, like I said you could try the "Root Essentials" app with KingoRoot to just open that hidden menu specifically, I just know it won't open without root access, you may need to mount /system as RW even? I do these all by default so forgive me for not being a little more detailed lol.
I'm around if u hit any snags.

I'm still unsure of how well you know a TouchWiz setup, but I think you can tell the issue with everything is the locked down bootloader & the fact that it booted T-Mobile instead of VZW, is very weird, personally I'd love some logs to see if there's any difference in the loader, because it obviously knew when it was rooted LOL

Boost APN

Ok guys, im trying to get a custom rom on my s5, if i get a rom installed, I have no network. I tried manually put in data for Boost APN. Tell it to save and it doesnt. What am I doing wrong here?

Are you using Lineage or Lineage based OS?
Do you see your IMEI when going into about phone and signal status?

I'm having this same issue and it's getting really frustrating to figure out. Only rom data works on for me is stock and I don't wanna be on it. If I find any solution I'll let you know, but for now I'm right there with you with this issue.

I managed to get at least 3G working, and it's on DotOS 3.0. I flashed This APN zip right after flashing the rom, and afterwards I went into Settings -> Network & Internet -> Mobile Network, I turned off Automatically select network and then picked Sprint to register it on the network. Haven't been able to get 4G working but personally I don't mind, 3G's good enough for me.
Try to flash this APN through recovery it works for me on virgin mobile....I also got MMS working with it
