Not sure exactly what you are asking.
If you are looking to put the phone on to Verizon's network with a Verizon contract/phone number - There are ways but Verizon won't help you and people on this board cannot post the information. It is illegal to.
If you are just looking to keep your sprint contract and roam off the Verizon towers there is an AllTel PRL roaming around here somewhere you can load. But some people have reported Roaming Data being applied to their account - so be ware even though you can use data while roaming without a charge. Sprint has been known to cancel contracts for too much roaming.

I would like to run my old hero on Verizons network with a Verizon contract.. I read that post and I figured since we can trick the phone in to thinking Verizon/Alltel towers are home towers.. why wouldn't we be able to run the whole phone on there network. How illegal is it exactly... phone has a clear "title" if I will. It will actually be for my father who has just switched the Verizon Thanks for your reply

Any takers?

I've used an iPhone 4 and I havent really gotten to actually try and switch carriers fom verizon to cricket but I know that ota doest work (obviously)
My main concern on flashing it would be
1. Switching prl's
2. Trying to set the mdn and min
Everything else doesnt seem so hard, apn setting are right there for the taking

i found that the verizon prls along with others, are located in "/System/Library/Carrier Bundles/iPhone/"
i replaced the verizon ones with cricket ones with the same name and rebooted lol
didnt work. until now i havent found a way to put it in "diagnostics mode"
in order to flash the prl with either workshop or QPST...etc.
just my two cents

Actually, you may want to consider this at http://www.volkspost.info/ipcc_fw3/ to make sure that you can turn on the carrier. You can't just cut and paste but you have to set to activate.
We need to do a monster flash file for the iPhone 4 for Cricket/MetroPCS just like the way that the RAZR V9 can be done here.

(Q)Tethering on prepaid

I purchased an at&t go phone Sim card because our bill was almost 1000 dollars. Is there any way to enable tethering on the wap apn?
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda premium

Holy cow, how did you manage to clock up such a massive bill?!
Anyway, if you're on a custom ROM without the tethering block, you should just be able to turn it on and go. It should work as long as you have a data connection.
If you're on ATT stock, and the tethering check is still in place, I don't think you're going to have any luck unless you actually add tethering to your line. I know GoPhone supports ATT's standard messaging packages; I don't know if they do the same data packages.

Insurance replacments, about 3 actually. Go phone doesnt support this phone at all in fact its not supposed to have data at all apparenty because lte phones are not allowed to use the go phone service because AT&T sucks. There words. I couldve done straight talk but this is only a temporary solution till i get paid friday and straight talk doesnt support lte does it? OH and i do have the 500 MB smartphone plan for 25 dollars which is a rip off to the max so taht should work in theory right?

In theory, yes. As long as the phone has a working data connection and no tethering check in place, it should let you tether, as inadvisable as tethering is on that plan.

[APK] AT&T Visual Voicemail 2.4.2.62

Here's the AT&T Visual Voicemail apk that can be installed on the Nexus 4 and that works with 4.2.x
Requirements:
You need to have the VVM feature on your AT&T account. It might require that you are on an LTE plan with a supported phone.
You need to use the 'phone' or 'pta' APN.

Thanks, Its working very nice

Hey guys do you have any suggestions on setting this up? All I ever get is a verification can't be received error.

I think you need to have VVM enabled on your account. Give AT&T a call and tell them to add it if you don't already have it, it's free without the transcript feature.

Do you have to have LTE for the visual voicemail cause it doesn't show as an option on our account.

Not sure. I do have an LTE plan though the N4 doesn't need it. Just give AT&T a call and they'll be able to tell you if they can add it.

Thanks sirxdroid! I'll see what I can do.

Thanks for the apk. However I couldn't get vvm added to my account and the service rep said there was no option to add it. Tried to just set up through the app and that failed too. My question is since you have an lte plan, do you have your phone as the N4 or another phone?

I moved the SIM card from an LTE phone to the N4 and I didn't update my account to put the N4 on it. But I read in other threads that you can ask AT&T to put you on an LTE plan and they should be able to do it, you may have to try a few times until you find someone competent to do it.

I'm not to worried about being on an lte plan, I asked that to figure out how you got vvm. Since your account probably has an att phone that can be provisioned for vvm you can use it. Now if the rumors are true about KLP being delayed I'll root my phone and use the Imei off of the S3 that I got off the store model, switch to the lte plan since I'm in one of the few markets that supports band 4, and get vvm too(as long as the s3 supports it).

That's how it's done if AT&T can't simply put you on an LTE plan.

Thanks for this! I have used this app for years on ATT and could not get previous versions to work! Just installed on my Nexus 4 and it works like a champ!
My other phone is a Note 2 on ATT which is an LTE plan. I swap the SIM back and forth. I used this app on my Note 2 and was trying to use it on my N4 but it did not work before until I saw this today and installed it and it works fine.

The N4 is available directly from the Playstore unlocked. No subsidizing. You pay full price.

Great work, thanks! This is working very nicely. I missed having it on my Galaxy Note. I did have to change my APN to the LTE APN for the setup to work (the 'pta' APN instead of the 'wap.cingular' one). I'm using an LTE SIM from my Galaxy Note.

'phone' APN works too, it's also an LTE APN. All new phones from AT&T come configured with the 'phone' APN.

Added apk version 2.3.32 to the original post. Enjoy.

The app recently updated to 2.3.33... Would it be possible to see this version?

Nexus 6 on Verizon Help??!

Hello everyone i wanted to see if anyone could find a fix for this problem. Well to start this off when i got the nexus 6 its the T-MOBILE (unlocked of course) was working FANTASTIC when i inserted my sim into it. LTE, MMS, CALL, AND TEXT worked better than any android phone i ever used. But i had the VERY DUMB IDEA to call *228 on a LTE phone for laughs (worse mistake ever). Now i can only get 3g instead of lte which is WAYYYYYYY lower in my area. And now my nexus 6 has a 3G PRL instead of Verizon's LTE PRL it needs and i CAN NOT revert back. Help would be MUCH APPRECIATED!
I have ordered a new verizon sim to activate with a random lte devices of course to stick in it for be a fresh card to get the correct info for LTE .
I just need another solution to hold me until then

I did this earlier today...well a Verizon rep did...luckily didn't have any issues. Have you tried factory resetting?

I figured so and yes the correct apn is in the the phone and everything like when lte worked but the prl is stopping it from connecting. Thanks everyone i will have to wait on the new sim

I did this too. Ill have to order a new sim I guess. if you get to the testing menu I was able to force LTE only.
Im glad im not the only one.
so definatly don't dial *228

Shouldn't have to order a new sim. Just go to the store and they will give you one. Shouldn't have to pay for it unless its an "authorized dealer" and not an actual Verizon store iirc.

You can try *22899 it was used on the gnex back in the day. I have never had issues with using *228 anyways on any phone.

Have you tried it? I have personally in my 2 gnexes and worked just fine, didn't "burn" my sim card either. Instead of not understanding a concept of looking it up, maybe you should just Google *22899 only and see for yourself.

I completely understand it. I worked for big red corporate for many years in sales. So, *22899 is literally *228 then option 1 so activation for CDMA phones. *22899 just avoids having to go thru the option. Nothing else.
Update:
Maybe you should google things a bit BTW. LTE phones auto activate. No *228. *228 is ONLY FOR CDMA and that is why this guy broke his phone. Before you recommend something to someone and then call me stupid, maybe you should do your own research. And the "I did it and I'm OK" line doesn't mean jack sh*t. Don't hurt other people because of your own ignorance.

OK. Well that is nice to know. Its hard to know what someone is saying. Often times people on XDA are jerks so it puts me on edge.
Anyway. It's programming the phone as if it is 3g only. It won't even work or go thru. But, if somehow it does like it did when LTE first came to big red, it will burn your sim and possibly worse. This is pretty common knowledge so I'm surprised you've seen anything but it. But again, there is never a time on an LTE phone to call this number. It should never even go thru but if it does, nothing good will happen. This is what happened to the poor guy on this thread. Perfect example.
Hope this info helps.
