need help flashing to cricket

IM trying to flash to cricket. already rooted and has the Eclipse Rom.
i got to change the SPC in CDMA WS 2.7 and i confirmed that. i know to flash it you cant read from QPST so i didnt and just filled oout the write spots. In QPST when i click write it just tells me ERROR SPC_CHANGE_ENABLE_I. Or the error PPP Password something.
i tried writing the NV files with CDMA WS but no matter what i do with cdma workshop it now says "PHONE ASK FOR SPC. SPC(6 digits) required.
ANy help would be appreciated...thanks
000000 is spc code. type that in spc field of cdma workshop before write to nv
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda premium
yea i already know that. i found out what i was doing. using CDMA WS i was going to the SPC spot and writing it then trying to do the stuff. figured out i needed to just SEND the unlock to the phone in order to write items to the phone.
Phone is flashed over now.

[Q] Override or reset SPC code?

Long story short: factory wiped phone, performed ESN swap, went to activate...no MEID or ESN. Verizon told me it's impossible to fix. I found several different CDMA tools and have managed to get DFS to work, kind of, except, it won't accept the default SPC code of 000000 so I can't unlock the device. I have been trying to figure out if the SPC code is something else or there is a way to reset or override it, but no luck so far since this is a Moto device and evidently they lock them down pretty good. Does anybody have any ideas? Every SPC method I have tried doesn't work for Moto devices.
I have tried:
1. CDMA Workshop
2. QXDM
3. DFS
3. getprop ril.MSL
Device was not rooted, until now. I rooted it with DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT hoping I wouldn't need an SPC code to program the MEID/ESN, but that wasn't the case.
A little help please?

Anyone have any ideas? There has to be a way...there is always a way.

simplest anwser is we dont know. if no one has responded, they either havent seen the thread, or just dont know what your talkin about or how to fix it. id help but your beyond the scope of what i know and i wont ever have to deal with it since i go through a small local carrier. my suggestion is google search for other threads where theyve had simmilar issues and then post on the thread asking for general advice since you may have a different device or pm the people who have ideas on how to help and ask for some help from them if you dont get a useful answer from anyone here or through verizon.
Verizon says its impossible to fix....Tries to fix it anyway. lol.
I have never heard of anyone doing what you are trying to do. I have been around the DX2 threads for a while and never came across anyone in your position. I dont think you are going to get any answers here. Mainly because this forum is a ghost town now. Like you said, The DX2 is locked down good. So whatever you are trying to accomplish will most likely be very hard if not impossible.

Hey,
Did you solve the SPC problem? I am having the same issue. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

How to get the MSL???????

So obtaining the MSL on a samsung device is pretty straight forward most of the time..on Sprint devices we usually use the getprop ril.MSL command..this method works by entering the MSL incorrectly 1st....Verizon is normally all zero's..but its not on the VZW S4..and the big problem is the device doesnt require an MSL to access data menu's..soooo I cant use the getprop ril.MSL command
The MSL is used to reprogram NAM settings
Im trying to figure out how to get the phone to ask for the MSL so I can then enter it wrong so I can then use the getprop ril.MSL command to retrieve the correct MSL
Any ideas?

How do you get to the data menus in the first place? I've tried the usual codes and I don't see any of them working.

+1 I can't get to the data menus either. How do you do it.
Okay, so I did a little digging and found this:
http://galaxys4root.com/galaxy-s4-t...aws-bands-on-att-galaxy-s4-sgh-i337sgh-i337m/
Now, the kicker is that since our hidden menus aren't enabled, and the enabler code isn't the same as the Galaxy S3 as posted below, dialing the code won't pull up the screen as on the tutorial above:
http://androidforums.com/samsung-ga...unlocking-jelly-bean-service-modes-found.html
However, we can resort to some additional trickery. I installed the Market app called QuickShortcutMaker. With that app, one can create a shortcut to an activity, specifically for the phoneutil.apk listed in the first tutorial after it is installed. The activity we want to make a shortcut to that is equivalent to the menu shown by dialing *#7284# is:
Code:
com.sec.android.app.phoneutil.SetPortUartUsbMSM8960
With that, it should give access to the Samsung COM Port we can use with whatever utility can read the MSL on Samsung phones. If I find one that works, I will post again.
Edit 1: It seems that the mode should be set to DM + Modem + ADB to get the modem working under QPST. The RNDIS + DM + MODEM mode errors out in QPST.

Okay, so I used CDMA Workshop v2.7.0 (google it) and I input SPC 000000 and it worked fine for me on my Verizon Galaxy S4, so either OP is on Sprint or another carrier or someone else set the SPC on his phone.
It seems like OP posted using a Sprint phone, but he seems to think Verizon S4's have a different SPC/MSL other than 000000, which doesn't seem to be the case.
Edit 2: I retried the RNDIS + DM + MODEM mode and it seems to load fine on QPST also, might've been that I needed to unplug/replug the phone USB cable. For that matter, QPST also acknowledges SPC/MSL code as 000000 on VZW GS4. The version I found (QPST 2.7 build 402) detects the chipset, but stops responding when reading the Service Programming data.
Thanks for the reply, I do have a sprint s4 and I already flashed it 2 vzw prepaid..my brother in LA has the vzw s4 and based on what u said I think what happend is he changed the MEID 1st and restarted l the phone and I think it changed his MSL..maybe he can revert back to the original and get the stock MSL..ill comfirm when he responds back to me..but for my original question lets assume he's stuck with the new MSL..how would we go about getting the MSL? on all the devices ive used the getprop ril.MSL command on, Ive always had to 1st enter the MSL wrong but since the programming menus on this phone dont ask for it im stuck as to how to get the getprop ril.MSL command to work?
Edit: just got my hands on it and thats exactly what it was..SPC changes once u tamper with the MEID, reverted back 2 stock and reset the phone and voila, back 2 zeros, full flash in no time

I knew something funky was up I was going to try a memory dump in QPST to see if it was visible like on an LG Optimus Elite I tinked with a while ago, but QPST insists the phone isn't in download mode, and when it prompts to switch it over, it hangs and says the phone stopped responding to commands, or just reboots the phone and does not place it in download mode.
Edit 1: You can read NV item 85 using CDMA Workshop v.2.7.0 -- that contains the MSL, however, you'll also need to know the 16 digit password to be able to read it.
Edit 2: A bit more googling found a 16 digit password that works for my Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 -- it is: 2009031920090615 (it is also the password for the i535) You can retrieve protected NVM items after inputting this password AND the SPC code.
Edit 3: Nice, once I had input the 16 digit code into CDMA workshop and opened up QPST service programming, it enables reading of the service information there too! Seems like the lack of a correct 16 digit password being sent is what was 'locking' it. Presumably newer versions of QPST will ask for the 16 digit code in addition to the SPC.
Unfortunately, because you don't know the SPC code, even knowing the 16 digit password is not enough to get the SPC from NVM item 85, as I said earlier, you have to know both. Presumably there is another way of getting it... I tried to read the memory from the S4 with just the 16 digit code set and it doesn't seem to work.
Because it is relevant to the discussion, I figured out how to enable the hidden menus on the Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4. See here for details:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2303905
This makes it a bit easier... no shortcut trickery needed to get to the *#7284# menu. After enabling the hidden menus, just dialing the code will work.
I'm still not aware of a way to get the MSL/SPC if it is unknown, however. Perhaps someone else can figure this out.
