Hey I just got the Atrix HD today coming from Sprint. The phone feels very good. I'm having a problem trying to figure out how to get this phone working with QPST, I'm familiar with the Sprint dialer codes, but I don't take it they are the same for AT&T. I did a few searched with no luck. Anyone have any idea to push me in the right direction?
Thanks.

I'm not familiar with QPST but take a look at this for an app that puts us in the *#*#INFO*#*# menu.
Thanks for the reply, that's not necessarily what I was looking for, but I am sure that'll come in handy.
I semi answered my own question. You have the put the phone in BP Tools mode for the drivers to install, but the problem with me is the diag mode drivers wont install for me I have no idea how to get it going so I just gave up. If anyone knows where I could get the drivers specifically for the Atrix HD diag mode it'd be greatly appreciated.

Hey Guys,
I'm really liking my first Android phone, but am having a heck of time working out the kinks. Phone calls and text work. Here's a list and if anyone can help out with any of them, I'd really appreciate it.
1. The phone constantly tries to do Sprint Auto-Activation. I *believe* this is causing the GUI to crash constantly...I've tried three ROMs and none run very stable. Is there a way to disable that pesky auto-activate?
2. I need data settings for Virgin or Boost. Coming from an iPhone, I don't see a setting for an APN anywhere. I think I have the settings, but I'm not sure I'm putting them in the right place.
3. Is there a special ROM I should install since I'm not on Sprint? I'm surprised there aren't more Verizon ROMs around.
Please help with any suggestions.
Realized this should probably be in the "General" instead....

So your on virginmobile but with a cdma hero? Awesome to get to the apn settings just hold the green call button down till you get the voice dial or just do it from your menu. When it comes up say, "open apns". It will take you to the apns. Are you rooted? Also to get the phone to stop doing that pesky
Thanks for the help. I'm working on the APN stuff now. I think your last post got cut short. I'd really like to know how to disable to auto-activate crap. I'm also getting invalid username/password, but I'm sure thats just becuase its trying to log into Sprint.
So u can use sprint phones on virgin mobile? please how do u do this..that 25 buck plan looks to good to pass up.. How would i say use my hero on virgin mobile..
I'm only able to place calls and text. NO DATA which is driving me nuts. I need the APN/Data settings for VM, but no one seems to have them.
And my phone keeps trying to do Sprint auto-activation, which is also driving me nuts. And I keep getting GUI crashes no matter which ROM I use. So far the process has been anything but smooth.
Does anyone have ideas on disabling Sprint auto-activation? Thanks!

I knows this isn't much help but do a search for cricket. I saw a way earlier just gotta find it cuz i'm not doing anything i'll look to ..... try this enter ##data# then hit edit enter your msl then turn off vocoder. Also hit menu then commit changes
I'm pretty sure I seen an APK in the phone somewhere that was related to the over the air activation stuff... might wanna look for it.
I could be wrong, that may be for the Moment, but that's Android on Sprint too so I dont see why the Sprint Hero would be different.
I too am really interested in putting my Hero on Virgin Mobile US. Has anyone figured out the data settings for wap/apn and whatever else is needed? If not, if one were to purchase a cheap virgin phone, say a jax, could the information be taken from there?
Also, would it be necessary to use a non-sprint ROM since virgin mobile runs on the Sprint network???? Thanks for any help.
Ok, I tried the BitterSweet and the nags went away and everything is running smooth on my Hero...I'm really liking it. Just no DATA. I'm still waiting on settings from someone. I tried VM tech support and they didn't even know what an APN was...seriously.
Yes, you can buy a cheap $10 Virgin Mobile phone and use those "settings" for the Hero. That's all I'll say about that.

Lol, not asking about that one setting. I already knew that part, I mean if someone were to buy a cheap phone would they be able to get all the settings, apn/wap and so on from it. If so, which phone, and what else would be needed?

can program your apns in by holding down the green call button and saying "open apns" also try pushing ##data# and you'll get a menu with data and mms stuff. Another note I've been doing some research to avoid the overpriced $75 dollars to get the phone flashed to metropcs and (two things) one they say they've rooted the hero. Two they say that for a normal flash all they do is change the prl.
I've accessed the ##DATA# and APN menus, but I have no idea what to change them to. I've also looked into PRLs but I can't seem to find one for Virgin. I know they just use the Sprint network so wouldn't the PRL be the same?
If anyone is really interested in using the Hero on Virgin, Boost, or Cricket PM me. I searched the internet for hours finding all the info and I don't mind helping someone else out. The more people we get working on this, the more likely we are to figure these settings out.

**** I'm trying to get it to work on metro. My main thing right now is to stop it from doing the hands free activation. I know we have slightly separate goals but that is something we could work on together. What you really need is for the op of this thread to send you his prl.
I got rid of the Sprint Auto-Activation by installing BitterSweets ROM. It's working great so far.

Unfortunately for me the phone I wanna do this on is a nonrooted phone. I did find a good really good explanation here
Just realized you were the op can you upload your prl for others? A full nandroid would be awesome
The PRL I'm using is the standard one that comes with the Hero. I haven't changed it. I can upload it, but it should be one everyone has by default on Sprint. I forget the version...

Hello Everyone,
I have a Droid Bionic with Android Version 4.1.2 I am a noob at this and I am really sorry if my issues have already been posted. I have been looking for my issues for hours. But I haven't been able to find a noob or unlocking for dummies version.
*My PC Mode is missing and I don't have it to make RadioComm work properly and read and write.
*I am trying to get my Verizon Droid to work on Straight Talk. I am having issues with doing so because I cant get RadioComm to work properly. All codes show up in red and when I hit read or write it is red and says error.
*I found something on YouTube that taught me about *#*#4636#*#* and going in and changing the phone so that the GSM option is on. Is that all I need to do or do I have to do the RadioComm thing as well?
I am running RadioComm on 64 bit windows when I run RadioComm I get error after error talking about the RadioComm version being a 32 bit program. I don't know if all of my issues are because of me having a 62 bit system.
Please help me and let me know what I need to do to get straight talk to work on my Droid Bionic. And again I am sorry if all these questions have been posted on here already. Thank you

I am looking to do the same thing. I bought a damaged broid bionic where I work and repaired it back to working status and I want to us it on Straight Talk as well. I am new to unlocking phones or making them able to use on other networks so I am in need of help. I have done a factory reset of the phone and there is no sim card as of yet but I can get one through Straight Talk but it will have to be for an AT&T phone but this one is from Verizon. Some one out there has to know what needs to be done so I can use it. I have searched Google for 2 days and I am not finding anything that will help me.
Can't get SPC/ MSL on Windows Phone 8 HTC 8XT Sprint.
You should be able to call Sprint to get them, just provide the IMEI or whatever they ask for. As long as you *had* an account with them you should be fine. If you can get DM Mode running you could get it yourself.
Dial ##MFG# in the normal dialer menu and go to Diag and flip the DM Mode switch.
Drivers might get installed automatically, but I'm not sure.
not that easy

more often than not, the carriers won't give you the code especially if you don't have an account. and if you had an account, you probably wouldn't need it. also once you do the ##mfg# and select diag, guess what.... it asks for the "user unlock code" which as far as i can tell, is the six digit MSL we are trying to get. so you never get to the dm mode switch.
the problem with some of the methods that i've previously used like dfs or cdma workshop is i can't get windows to recognize the phone to prompt for a diag driver or in other words it won't show up as needing the diag driver or as a port, so i can't connect it to dfs, cdma workshop etc. i can get into the bootloader screen by holding the buttons during power on and windows then looks for a "usb bldr" driver and installs the old windows mobile interface, which i thought was great at first thinking i'd set the port manually but i couldn't get the device to show up there either.
can you or anybody offer any further advice, i know this isn't a new subject to say the least and i appreciate all the good info i've gotten from you guys over the years, i always type xda at the end of my google searches because there are so many great developers here. i have an 8xt bought from an auction, its awesome, i am a page plus dealer and i activated it through the dealer portal, it went through fine, but without being able to at least change the prl, or manually program it, i can't use it! help!

I don't remember where I found the unlock code, but I think its in my 8XT thread.
HTC has always had their own drivers for their diagnostic modes. If you still have an 8XT with 8.0 GDR2 or 3 try installing the webserver app and using the native toast launcher on one of their apps. I would work on one of those again, but its been forever since I had mine. My only issue is that the Qualcomm Diag mode (not the power+volup) seems to be in READ_ONLY mode. I'd try a few things first, but I'd be nice if someone could donate one of their old ones, so I can work on it again.
I'd recommend the ATIV S Neo if you want to attempt to reprogram stuff, its just much easier and you can do it on the phone too.

Hi I was hoping someone would be kind enough to help a noob. ive done all the research I can and seems ive come to a dead end. I am trying to flash my HTC One to verizon prepaid. i got my msl, got it working in qpst and did you know what but I cant get my donor phone a samsung gusto 2 to show up in windows 8.1. ive downloaded several drivers but I still cant see nothing. right now downgrading to windows 7 is not an option for me. is there any drivers for windows 8.1 that work with the Gusto 2 or am I sol. If someone would be kind enough to help me with this small but irritating situation I would greatly appreciate it.
So I have a Sprint Moto X that is stuck in cdma-ehrpd mode. Because of this I can't connect to LTE.
I've exhausted all of my attempts at fixing this including factory resets, APN editing and flashing SBF files using RSD and manually flashing.
I'm just wondering if any other Sprint users or Moto X users have ever experienced this or know what can be done to get my LTE back before sending it to Sprint to get fixed.
I am rooted and using Xposed (only for Gravity Box). Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I haven't gotten 4g for a few months. The problem is that any fix that involves the hidden menus requires me to have my msl number which Sprint would not release.
Anyone know of any method that works to get an msl number of the moto x?
I also noticed that my APN is different than my wife's. This wouldn't be a problem but I can't seem to edit or add my own APN and have them stay.

There is a apk called like My MSL or something to that effect, and it will give you your MSL code immediately, no calling Sprint or anything, but I'm pretty sure its not freeware, so Google will help. If I remember what website I found it through (there are numerous sources lately I believe), I will try to point you in the right direction. I try to keep my phone from ever falling back on to 3G, and without the code I'd be very frustrated, lol.

I went and dug the apk out of my Google drive, and I apologize for mis-labeling it in my previous post, but it is actually called "MSL Utility", the apk is "MSL Utility_1.0.apk". So, with that being said, I believe that I probably downloaded it off 4shared or GSM Arena or some similar site that disregards software license rules etc.
