Does anybody use page plus?

I am thinking i am gonig to activate my cdma touch pro on page plus. has anybody else done this?

I just did my touch diamond last week

i am having nothing but problems trying to program and get my diamond working with page plus right now... what ROM and Radio are you using?

tp on pp
I activated a verizon touch pro on PP. Stuff to know, 1. a sprint tp can be done but much harder. 2. Page plus has a great subforum on howardsforum but even so until you walk through stuff yourself its confusing. Walking through is easy.
3. Activation does not use esn uses longer number under battery (meid?). However you activate be sure to indicate it is a TP because otherwise the system expects ESN numbers.
4. I am very pleased overall

Just fixed my stuck roaming issue, had to update my PRL manually with a NON-EVDO PRL file.. all fixed and im digging page plus so far.

Sorry i did not get back with you sooner vap3riley. Im still kinda new to my phone and do not yet recognise all the icons, its very well posible that i too am stuck in roaming i just dont realise it
My phone is mostly default except for a few apps i added and tweaks. No roms yet.

it deffently has to do with your prl i had the same problem when i first activated my htc hero200 to pages plus... and stupid me flashed it from alltel to sprint to page plus.. but i do know its your prl i have updated mine manully after activating it doing the *22890 thing or what ever i was roaming untill i manully updated the prl then everything is great the only problem that i am haveing now beside the internet and pic messageing is that sometimes my phone has to reboot when i have a incoming text message??? but when i update my prl with the same prl that i use it works fine for a day maybe to then it will start rebooting agian untill i reupdate my prl.. sorry for kinda asking a question while answering one but if you need any help with the prl i can let you know what i do know.. and if any one could help me out i would be very happy you can email me at [email protected] thanks every one

Help! Is there a way to "unflash"?

Ok, I've tried my best to figure this out on my own and now I need some help.
Had my CDMA Hero flashed to Cricket a few weeks ago on talk and text. Just found out that I can get Sprint service, so I want to activate on Sprint instead of Cricket.
Here's what I've tried so far...
1. Latest RUU (1.56) installed successfully. Data in ##3282# seems to have stayed the same.
2. Manually changed my MSID and MDN to the correct Sprint settings given to me by tech support. Still won't activate or Update Profile.
3. Executed ##786#. Still won't activate or Update.
4. Reset User Name in ##3282# and committed. Still won't activate.
5. Called and double checked that my ESN is free and clear. It is. Tried all above procedures, still no luck.
6. Wiped Dalvik, and caches through Recovery 1.5.2. Also wiped phone through the white screen boot up procedure with the volume key. Still no luck.
From what I've been told by tech support, if none of these things gets my phone to activate on Sprint, then I need to get my phone flashed back to Sprint since it's currently flashed to Cricket.
Can anyone give me any advice? Is anyone else on Sprint, maybe even in the Eastern NC area, who wouldn't mind giving me some edittable settings from ##3282# or other things to check?
Getting a little frustrated but not giving up yet. I can't afford or have the time to wait until I can afford to take this phone somewhere and get someone else to do it for me. If anyone can help me out, I'll be happy to write a fully detailed guide on this whole thing for anyone else who has this problem in the future!!

Another bit of info. I just tried flashing the RUU again, since my phone wouldn't even boot on the last ##786# I tried. To get it ready to use RUU again, I loaded my Fresh 1.1 nandroid, ran rhe RUU again, and now there's a change.
My passwords for ##3282#, etc. are no longer "000000", and they're back to the default "190320". Does this mean that I'm no longer unlocked? Am I making progress now?
Grr.

LMAO man... I was in the same position as you ... but I was in Metropcs...so first of all to flash it to metropcs I went to a store called WirelessToyz and they did it for me, I got tired of metropc's slowness and I wanted to go to Sprint, so I had a hard time doing it until I went back to WirelessToyz and they flashed it back to sprint, even tough you flash the RUU that does not make it run on Sprint , when they "flash it" they do something else, long story short go to wherever you did that and flash it back to sprint, you might need to pay money.

HTC DIAMOND> From Sprint to Page plus (NEED HELP ASAP)

Hi
i own a htc touch diamond, which is the SPRINT VERSION, and
need to activate it with page plus for my MOM.
for what i understand both networks are CDMA so it should
work, right?
if that's the case, what's the best and cheapest way to go to activate it?
but first a little story:
i tried to go to with a multi-carrier cell phone location, but the guy tried to screw me
promissing to activate it this was the deal with the guy:
80 DOLLARS up front, 40 to activate and credit starter, and
another 40 for "transfer the ESN from an old forgotten page plus
non-smart phone" which i found very strange... so i said
NO DEAL, BYE.
--
anyways, i need the phone to be PREPAID and i only want to
start with 10 dollars of credit to give it a try
if you know other prepaid CDMA service provider with GOOD rates per
minute i would like to know
please guide me
THANKS in ADVANCE !!

not going to be trivial, but may be possible... you will definitely first need the phone's MSL (lock code). And it is possible that you'll not be able to get data or MMS working. You'll have to manually program the phone... Go to www.howardforums.com and look in the PagePlus forum for more details...
It would be far easier to sell off this phone and get a Verizon phone of some sort instead, since PP is a Verizon MVNO...

It can be done, I did the same. I followed a tutorial I found somewhere, but can't remember where. Look around. Def need the MSL, that was the hardest thing for me to find.

i did the same thing years ago. i can sure that it can be done. but now my diamond is dead due to unknown reason .
anyway, try search ppcgeeks, i remember someone give me a radio prl for page plus. just run it , and the *288 can activated your phone.
sorry i didn't have the file u need.

the file u need is called Verizon Prepaid EVDO PRL 51214 Modified (01-13-09)

Used G1 without web plan

If I buy a used G1 on ebay, can my neighbor just put her sim card in it without any web plan? She has a regular voice and text plan on T-Mobile with a cracker jack nokia flip phone and it's a hassle for her to send and receive texts. I figured she can get a phone with a keyboard and make her life easier.
Does she have to turn anything off so she doesn't get charged for web service?

without a data plan its gonna be hard to get past the activiation screen.
all she would need to do is
get a sim with someone who has data,
go through the setup creating her own gmail account
then when she;s at the home screen power off and swap sims again.
she wont have internet but the basics will work!

I have an iPhone on T-Mobile with data. So I can use my sim and put it in her G1 and where do I find the next steps in activating everything?

no sim = unpassable NO SIM screen.
sim without data = activation/learn how to use screen, cant continue after wanting to create gmail account
sim with data = get to step above but it will create the account and allow you through to the home screen.
so yes, as long as the sim has data, she should be ale to activate.
just remember to tell her that the phone is much more fun with data ;D

Thanks. Once I get her to see how much fun and easier to use a smart phone is I'm sure she'll eventually get a data plan.

actually I think the only way to get pass it is with a android data plan, Im not sure of the other data plans t-mobile has.
But I have had my G1 for a year w/o data.I got 5MB of free data when I bought it so you can try it even though your getting it used.I still had this problem when I was rooting it though because I had to log-in without the data.I did by going through the adb shell or something its kind of difficult.
Maybe someone else can give you more information

Ok I got it and I installed the sim card from my iPhone. I went through the activation process and I created a generic gmail account and have been using the G1 for the last 30 minutes. Have it also working through the wifi at home too.
Now I have to install her sim to see what happens.

Download APN droid so that her phone doesn't connect to data services. They will charge her per MB if she doesn't.

I got pretty good at modifying the iPhone and next week I have to learn the EVO. I hope what I learn with this G1 I can use with the EVO later!
I went into MARKET on the G1 and searched APN and all I got was APN Italy and APN Movilphone. Where do I get APN DROID and how do I install it?

The app's name is "APNdroid" by martin adamek. It's in the market.

I must be doing something wrong. I'm going into the market and searching for APNdroid and it keeps telling me
There are no matches in Android Market for the search : APNdroid
Do I have to be rooted or jailbroken or is it another Market not the one on the stock G1 ? Do I have to do it while connected on the cellphone or can I do it over wifi?
I'm not an idiot, I mean how hard is it to do a search, but this is making me nuts!!

OK Now I know what happened. I've been playing with the G1 since yesterday but for some reason today it decided to update its version. It asked if I wanted to update it and I said yes. Apparently the previous owner had never updated it. I now have a way prettier and more modern looking Market and it found the app quickly when I searched for it.
I installed the app and it's working great. I knew I couldn't be that dumb!
Thanks a lot for your patience.

[Q] I have tmobile, with Data plan, but does not work on my G1

So I've done plenty of searching, enough so that I was able to unlock my phone without the data working, rooted my phone, flashed and modded it, successfully running newest Biffmod.
That being said, i'm 100000% sure I have a working data plan, my plan is unlimited everything.
Works fine in any of my other phones, Dash 3G, HTC HD2, Unlocked Samsung blackjack i607.. The difference, those are all windows mobile phones?
But the HTC HD2 Dual boots android 2.2 froyo and data works there.
Yup, same sim I'm talking about, same plan, just different phones.
Any Idea why my data plan is not working with the G1? Am I doing something wrong? It worked when i FIRST got this phone (ordered it off ebay not that long ago to play with).. After factory reset/wipe before modding is when it all went sour.
Was stuck on log in screen so I had to do the work around to get into the phone, obviously not with Biffmod I can skip.. But I cant use market place, check e-mail, ANYTHING data related. Yet my Icon says 4 bars, 3G and I even see the "up" and "down" data xfer arrows giving me activity.
It's as if it's "there" just not working.
Any help would be great appreciated, I plan to go to T-mobile and hopefully one of the people there will actually have some tech savvy.. Wishful thinking.
Long story short, I just want my data to work. Please, and thank you.

Do a search on here for the correct APN setings for your provider.
edit: here's the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475564

Read the thread, it's for ATT users trying to use a T-Mobile phone.
The issue is that I actually have T-mobile.

I'm fairly sure I saw the apn settings for t-mo in there too. That's probably what you should be checking first.
Sent from my G1 using XDA App

Just google Tmobile's US apn settings or grab them from another of your devices, then it will work.

Perfect, I'll give that a shot when I get home from work today, thanks for all the help so far.
