unlock it for what provider? its a sim-less unit.

i know its a simless unit. This is a cdma unit for sprint. Getting the MSL to enter my own phone number in the EPST. Without it i wont be able to provision it for a specific carrier

i finally got it thanks. For others who want to know how to get it i used cdma workshop 2.7 i tried reading the SPC, click on RAM and custom start address at 0100. Just got it from the other forum

they gave me my msl over the phone because I added my old phone # to it. You could call and say you got a sprint phone, want to sign up for service, (you'll have to do that), then they'll give you the msl code. I've tried getspc, but the value I got was different then what sprint gave me.

G1 setup questions.

just got a G1 with me. i dont have a t-mobile sim with me, but i know the first thing the phone goes to is to set up a gmail account. is there anyway round this?
would it work if i got a normal sim and just put credit on it, like say £10, and then the phone will just use up the credit to register with a gmail account? or do you have to absoloutely have some sort of special plan? i put in my blyk sim with an x-sim IV and it accepted the sim, thinking it was a t-mobile sim. but i dont have any credit on the sim so the connection times out, was thinking of putting some credit on the sim to see if it will connect?
cant you do the setup over wifi? but i cant get into any menus to set it up?
if you absoloutely have to get a bloody t-mobile web'n'walk plan then that, in my opinion, is just as bad as the whol apple ipone thing, what a rip, i'll be selling the phone then.
but if anyone know of how to get around this or if it'll work off credit, then please let me know.

i love you.

well i type in reboot and nothing happens oh well i guess its time to sell it, but do you know if it would be possible to activate over normal credit on your sim or does it have to have a special t-mobile data plan?

Search is your friend. The phone does not require TMo.

well i used search and got nowhere. i found one thread about not needing a t-mob data plan but it requires access to the phones APN settings which i dont have

APN settings are available by pressing the menu button when in the setup. Can't remember if is right at the "Touch the android" or not. Just search the forum to get the needed APN settings for your carrier.

There are APN setting of different carriers in this thread

The way I did it without a data plan was to get someone that has a data plan and insert their Tmobile sim card in your G1. After you are able to log in, go into setting->data synch, and uncheck everything. Now you are able to use your Sim card and access the phone without the gmail authentication.

Questions about G1 ... ATT... Blocked Data... Debacle!

So my friend is giving me her old G1 since she got a new phone and it is basically sitting in her glove compartment. She has T-Mobile I have AT&T.
I am on a family plan with no data plan and my parents went so far as to put a data block on all the phones. I read a few sites and I heard from one that once the phone is unlocked it is a one time deal, if this is true this may be good for me.
A) Since my friends phone is obviously unlocked since it was hers and she used it, if I put my ATT sim card in (she's not gonna factory reset), will it work? What would I have to do
Since I dont have a data plan and my parents blocked all data (internet, not messaging) but I have Wifi, can i tell my friend before she mails me her G1 to enable wifi?
B) Since I don't plan on getting wifi anytime soon, this would be good no? Ofcourse if question A is correct that I wouldn't have to unlock it and activate it.
Ba) If question A is fail, could i still activate the phone via my wifi on the gmail account set up?
So those are all the questions I have, I would like to know what I should do when i get the phone in anycase because I would really like to use it, and i plan to use the wifi feature instead of paying for a data plan since my town has a lot of free wifi hotspots!
Let me know!!!

If the phone is up to date, it should allow you to skip the account sync process (which is one reason data is required). That way it should allow you to get into the phone and activate wifi yourself.
Of course it wouldn't hurt to have you friend do it for you. Convenience and all.
you meant to say "Since I don't plan on getting data anytime soon..." right?
If she doesn't factory reset, you can add multiple accounts on a single G1 through settings. So give that a go too. The main thing is, that before donut, it was mandatory to sync over data service to activate your phone on a fresh G1. So you should be ok.

Hey Innovated,
Shouldn't have any issues doing that. If you pop in the SIM card, the phone will first say Emergency Calls Only. You have to go into Settings, Wireless Controls, Mobile Networks, then Network Operators and select AT&T.
If it pops up with an unlock code screen, then you need to purchase an unlock code. eBay is usually good, around $5.
After that, everything will work. As you don't have a data plan, and have a data block in place, there's no need to enter new APN details.
As for wifi, you can turn it on or off as you want. To turn on and off, click Settings, Wireless Controls, Enable WiFi.
Hope this helps!

Wow thank you so much for both of your fast replies! This will help so much and hopefully it is as easy as you say! I can't wait to have this cool phone!

My friend wants to know if it can still work if she can factory reset it, and add my gmail account to activate it before mailing me the phone... Would that still be the same as what she 'WAS' going to do in my first description?

As far as I know that can work. What the sync does is add your contacts, and allow the phone to sync with your google account. With 1.6 and higher, android allows you to skip the step, but it should be possible if she does it for you.
Worst comes to worse, you factory reset and hit "skip" . So yup. hope that helps.

even if im ATT and she's Tmobile?

Sprint wont activate

So a friend of mine bought a CDMA hero off craigslist and when he called to have it activated they told him they cannot because the previous owner has not paid his bill and had his account suspended. They told him that there is nothing they can do until he pays his bill. I told him ill look into ways to get it to work since the guy wont allow a return.
Is there anyway that I can manual program the phone to work?

Um. I think hes out of luck....the only thing i see you going to be able to do is a ESN change, Which is ILLEGAL and not one one person on XDA-developers forum is going to tell you how, and if you do find out how, your on you own...
He could olso flash the phone to cricket wireless and use it on their network, but thats if you have cricket service local to you,

*cough*cdma*cough*toolbox*cough*
... sorry... had something tickling my throat.

I stand corrected..

Here's the solution I'm working on for those who may run into a simular problem.
Sucessfully, i used QPST and QXDM in ways i cannot discuss on these forums and was able to get calls and texts working..
Currently im focusing on getting the Data plan to work correctly.
Any feedback in setting up data in ##3282# would be appreciated.
thanks.

[Q] hero wifi phone

When we retired my wife's hero we gave it to the kids. I have it set up as a wifi phone. It works for calling everybody except my wife. I think that this is due to the fact that the phone says it is the same as her phone number. When you go into the settings it says my wifes number. It goes directly to voicemail when calling my wife's phone. Wondering how to either change how the phone sees itself or delete it out. Prefer to change the number to his wifi number. Thanks for any answers in advance. If this has been covered before if you can point me in the right direction.

Hi,
From market get the MSL app to get ur phones MSL code, now Flash to a sense ROM like
Liquid sense or NFX so u can use ur dialer codes.
From the sense ROM dial ##786#
Then it should ask for ur msl when u select reset phone.
Please note that this is not the same as factory reset cuz that will not help in it case.
Worse case call sprint after u put the sense ROM onto phone.
Good luck

Got the Msl code and would work great but for some reason it would let the call go through today. Weird. They aren't willing to lose their info now so won't let me do it. Appreciate the info. When I talk them into switching stuff this info will work wonderfully. You know I'm the parent and should just do it. Just can't bring myself to mess with someones stuff/tech without permission. Had to harrass the wife for a good six months to let me root her evo. thanks for the info.
