after i got my droid about a year ago, all i wanted to do was root it. I didnt read enuf about it and the effects of messing up, which i did and "bricked my phone".....so what happened, I was using an RSD lite method....very dumb and unplugged the phone to early (of course messing it up). Finally got it to boot back up and when i had to make the call to re-activate it my service was through U.S. Cellular!?! Took it to verizon, they said that was weird and tried to re flash it with their stock system...didnt work, they called their tech support still couldnt get it fixed. They sent me a warranty phone and didnt want or take the old phone back. It works just fine and i use it as my "test" phone. It is still on U.S. cellular service though. Dont eally need it activated but if anyone knows how, i would love to know??

you could try flashing the 2.2 sbf on it via rsdlite, since its not bricked, or you could flash a verizon radio via recovery after rooting it. Flashing a verizon radio on it should reconfigure it to verizon's settings. Feel free to pm me to further discuss this.
edit: usually when they send you a warranty phone they want you to send the phone back within 10days to avoid being charged for it
Go into recovery, and there is an option to wipe the radio data (i forget what it actually says) Try that. You might have just messed one of the parts of the radio by a small amount.

where do you see that option? its not in clockworkmod recovery. under the advanced tab there are choices to wipe dalvik battery stats and report error of the recovery but that is all. also an option to record key gpio values.

your answer is APN settings for internet but before you need to preform manual programing on your phone
for manual programing
With the slide closed, tap Phone icon, press # # 7 7 6 4 7 2 6, tap phone icon
Step 02:
Enter SPC Passcode: ______ displays, tap in white box to show virtual keyboard, enter 6 digit code (default: 000000), tap Verify
Step 03:
Tap User Activation
Step 04:
Tap in MIN box, delete existing information (tap at end of existing digits and use DEL), enter 10 digit phone number
Step 05:
Tap in MDN, delete existing information, enter 10 digit phone number
Step 06:
Tap in CDMA Sys ID box, enter SID (for that you have to let me know where you live)
Step 07:
Press Done to save information and return to User Activation menu
Step 08:
Press the Home Key to exit out of programmig.
PROGRAMMING COMPLETE - device will restart automatically.
if you have any other questions send me PM w your phone number ill lookup info for you. I work for Verizon
I previously mentioned in the Bionic [Request] thread that the steps for making a RAZR work on PagePlus were the same as a Bionic, however, that statement is not entirely accurate. There is no *#*#4636#*#* on a RAZR, and as such, there seems to be no way at the moment to get 3G data. Picture messaging works if you install VZW messages from the market.
Here is what I did:
First and foremost, use the IMEI but drop the last digit. This is your MEID. Call Pageplus, or find a pageplus dealer who is nice enough to activate it for you, and give them this MEID. You will have to call pageplus cs after you are finished with the following programming to get the MEID put back on the phone. I don't know why this is, and I am not going to give you any kind of technical BS to make it look like I do.
1. Put phone into BP Tools mode by powering off, then pressing both up and down volume and power. Volume down to BP Tools and Volume up to choose it.
2. Install the latest Motorola Driver for your phone from: http://developer.motorola.com/docstools/USB_Drivers/
3. Connect the phone to the PC, and let the driver install complete.
4. Run HW Virtual Serial Port, and login with the password "admin" (it is already there by default, so just hit enter).< no longer necessary
5. Set the IP as 192.168.16.2, with the port as 11008.
6. Choose com port 100.
7. Open CDMA-Workshop 3.7 or higher (There is no known copy floating around for free. Either find someone who has it installed already, or pay the $108 like I did... if you're like me, you'll find ways to recoup your money. I have made it back a few times over already.) Choose COM port and click CONNECT.
8. Click on Security, SPC and send 000000. Do this EVERYTIME you reconnect the phone. Everytime. Don't forget this.
9. Click on Main and go down to where it says CDMA and change it to CDMA-2.
10. Under R-UIM change config to NV Only.
11. Click on the "Other" tab. At PRL, choose write and write the pageplus prl (51720 only) to it. Google for this, it's out there. Write to phone.
12. REBOOT the phone.
13. Reconnect and resend SPC.
14. On the MAIN tab, switch CDMA-2 back to CDMA.
15. Write 310 to MCC, 00 to MNC, and your MIN. Leave True IMSI alone.
16. Write 283, 384 to P CH; and 691 and 777 S CH.
17. Write your mobile number to the DIR_Number and DIR_PCS fields. Write to phone.
18. Change CDMA to EDVO.
19. under PPP User and HDR User write your phone number [email protected], with vzw for the password.
20. under Teth. NAI write your number [email protected].
21. Click on m.ip profiles
22. NAI is the same as 19. T NAI is the same as 20. The shared Secret fields are both VZW.
23. If necessary, change the P. HA address to 255.255.255.255.
24. Click X, then write to phone.
25. Disconnect the phone and reboot it. You are done with CDMA workshop.
26. On your phone, under Settings > wireless and networks > mobile networks > network mode change to CDMA only.
27. Connect to wi-fi and download phone in Play Store (Android Market)
28. Open phone info and go to phone information. Scroll down to set preferred network type and change it to CDMA auto (prl) and toggle DNS Check to allowed.
29. ##Program on your dialer, use "000000" for SPC code, and go to 3> Extended NAM and change the SID to whatever your SID is.
30. Back once to 06 Test Mode, next twice, then make sure network mode is CDMA and EVDO
31. Back once and go to 14 LTE Test Settings. Change SIM Type to 3g, LTE bppanic to disable. Back twice to reboot. Remove SIM Card while rebooting.
32. Back to ##Program 14, disable class1 and class2 APNs and back out. Phone will reboot.
That's it. I have 3g working on 173. Haven't gotten it on 181 or on the ICS leak, though, but, I have a droid razr on my prepaid 29.99/month plan, and couldn't be happier.
Any questions? Please message me. I will respond ASAP.

Think this method would work on the Droid 4 (XT894) as well?
Was considering sending one to Beigephone for programming. However I'd like to learn how to do this myself, so when the time comes if I need to reprogram the phone again, I can do it.
I could only assume so. But, I didn't know if the RAZR would work until I tried it for myself.
I have tried following your guide, and I just had a few things to add from my experience.
Between steps 7 and 8, I had to use 'Read' at the top of CDMA Workshop for it to allow me to enter the SPC code. I clicked the top Read, and I got this message:
DM baud rate has been automatically switched from 38400 to 921600
I was then able to input the SPC.
Furthermore, I was unable to read all of the information from the phone. The top Read worked fine, but the one in the Main tab could only pull certain information. Likewise, the Write button could only write some of the information, and was unable to write all the information under the M.IP Profiles section.
I actually was unable to try and complete the flash because the customer had to leave for work, so he ended up selling me the phone, haha. Any idea why CDMA WS kept erroring out halfway through writing the information?
I also have tried undoing everything through factory reset and changing the mode back to R-UIM only so I could sell it for Verizon, but even after changing the R-UIM settings back, the phone keeps saying there's no SIM card =/
that is the hard way. try this link for the easy way. i have done the razr and droid 4 with this method. i started with the bionic and i am sure it will work on the razr maxx. it doesn't cost a thing.
try this (post #25)

Instead of creating a Virtual Port. Just boot into BP Tools by pressing the Vol Up and Down buttons from power off. Scroll to BP Tools and press the Vol Up Button. I Used CDMA Workshop. Under CDMA2 Change it to NV Only. Writed a PP PRL. Mine took very easily. 3G was a bit harder but it does work. Most people report that it will only go 1x. After a bit of tweaking it switched to 3G and everything is running perfect.
I have successfully done a RAZR and RAZR MAXX the last 2 days. The process is the same on both.
(Trying to remember, don't have phone in front of me)
Boot up phone with SIM in, remove SIM upon reaching home screen.
##PROGRAM + SEND, enter 000000 for lock code.
Option 6 (Test Mode), hit next until you see Network Mode. Change it to CDMA and EVDO.
Go back to menu, option 14 (LTE Settings), change Sim Type to 3G UICC Test.
Reboot phone.
Go back into ##PROGRAM, option 1 (User Activation) and punch in your correct MIN, MDN and so forth.
There is another option for SMS/MMS settings that I had to change the MML server to [email protected] for text to work. Wasn't able to text MMS because the customer ran out of data
Make sure in your Data Manager under Settings that you have it set to roam for all trips or you won't get any data.
I'd like someone else to try this if they can, being that I sold both my RAZR and RAZR MAXX and I forgot to document the process, haha. If I come across another one, I'll be sure to update this reply.
I had 3G data, voice, text, and I believe MMS was working.
Hope this helps someone!

when i rebooted and tried to enter the MIN, MDN etc. it said "Failed to get call NAM information" and would not let me save after i entered the info.
are you starting with a fresh sim? The sim i am using is from the previous owner

I'm pretty sure I had to put the SIM back in, program the information, and go into the Data Manager to allow global roaming access.
I was able to get the RAZR MAXX working yesterday following some instructions provided by RemotesquaD (when you purchase their flashing software), and like a big dummy I had it working and tried flashing it with their software so I could get MMS working and it killed the data on the phone. I have sat here the last 4 hours trying to figure it out for this customer, and I am going crazy. I've tried everything, and the only thing I can conceive as a viable reason it won't work is because the phone had been previously activated on Verizon..
Can anyone confirm or deny this? I've tried several 4G SIMs to get through activation and then re-program it to no avail.
If only there was a way to completely revert this phone back to stock, settings and all so I could try from scratch =/ I feel like I might have a country code or SID wrong or something. Any insight would be appreciated! Thanks.
Droid razr maxx
so i followed everyones instructions but i put alittle twist in it i had to use cdma workshop 3.8 free trial and qpst. in cdma workshop alot of stuff didnt write to the phone because you have to buy the version of it so i wrote what i could to the phone and opened up qpst and did the rest with it. my only problem now is i use my wifi in the house and the 3g and 1x indicator is on only on wifi. when i turn wifi off then 3g and 1x goes off also. is it because i have an verizon 4g sim in the phone or is it something with the data?
anyone had any luck getting all this on ics???
---------- Post added at 04:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:19 PM ----------
some info for op
if you flash one of these without the original sim card you might have issues using the ##program# menu.
if you do then here is a tip
get "anycut" from market or search anycut .apk on google
add activity shortcuts one by one to your desktop of the razr
lte test settings
programming (the 2nd one)
testing
field menu settings.
those will give you shortcuts on desktop to enable the setting for 3g.
just had to flash two razrs like this.
hit thanks if it helps

another question of mine
has anyone got mms to work without that ugly ass vzw messages app?
ok so i stayed up waaayyy too late last night trying to get my razr on ics with page plus.
i installed the .79 leak and then installed cm9.
it kept all my settings in there that i could see through anycut looking at programming fields.
all i have is talk and text. no mobile data.
i was not able to connect through cdws on cm9 tho. if i reboot with bp tools then it goes to safestrap and after that it shows no diag port in device manager.
just trying to write down everything i did.
about to go back to 181 and maybe start over not sure yet.

try this for 181

Thanks for this pltctytc, but here's a question. I found out that I needed the SIM card kept in to get MMS via VZW Messages. Are you able to get MMS on 3G with the SIM out? The only difference is that my gf's phone is a Bionic on PPC.
had to put sim in to get internet... can't say about mms w/o sim since i didn't try it. i am not using a 4g verizon sim and never had one its a generic h20 one
but everything works as designed sms mms internet email blah blah blah
don't really know if there is a difference but knowing verizon i would assume they have something embedded in their cards
i am really surprised there is so little info about there about the razr or lte phones on pageplus. i guess most using ppc don't want newer phones or their capabilities
nevilles video is good on using cdmaws on the razr but i lost 3g following it but managed getting it back with a couple settings mentioned previously through trial and error

Why is my spc not all zeros when I dial ##PROGRAM? The previous sole user would not be capable of changing it and besides CDMA WS sends 000000 just fine.
I have tried this method below but I cant program it nor get it to make any calls. I have tried this X6 times and still have not accomplished this. Running .905 any help would be great
the entire process takes about 5 minutes after you install the software that you need.
you will need a computer, a data cable and an unused 4glte sim card and be on the .902 update
if you know how to bypass activation that will help (if you have wifi) you really need to be on the .902 update to get stable 3g
if you are not on the .902 update you will need to activate the phone or bypass activation and use wifi to download the upate and install it first,
because you will have to do or redo the activation after you install the update
to bypass activation:
Droid Bionic Bypass Activation
To bypass the activation on the Droid Bionic launch into safe mode by powering down the device and powering it back up, once the droid eye appears press and hold the volume up and down buttons simultainiously till you see the green android guy,
1. On the Welcome screen with the touch the android to begin icon, do the following:
2. Tap the top left corner of the screen then
3. Tap the top right corner of the screen then
4. Tap the bottom right corner of the screen ( just above the grey bar along the bottom with emergency dial and change language in it) then
5. Tap the bottom left corner of the screen ( just above the grey bar along the bottom with emergency dial and change language in it).
6. That’s it, should pop up the home screen shortly, if not retry. Remember not to drag your finger, simple tap top left, top right, bottom right, bottom left.
touch the menu button at the bottom left corner of the touch screen (the four squares with the top left one being solid)
touch the settings button
wireless and networks and connect to wifi
scroll down to the bottom touch about phone
at the top system updates
install update .902
now proceed with activation
this is the prl file you will need:
http://www.4shared.com/file/qryS5x4T/51720_EVDO.html
these are the driver files you will need:
http://www.motorola.com/staticfiles/...iver_5.4.0.exe
you can use this program:
http://conflipper.com/Software/QPST_2.7_366.rar
or:
http://www.cdma-ware.com/workshop/de...a_workshop.rar
install either qpst or cdma workshop on your computer (you will need the latest version):
http://conflipper.com/Software/QPST_2.7_366.rar
or
http://conflipper.com/Software/QPST_2.7_366.rar
install motorola drivers:
http://www.motorola.com/staticfiles/...iver_5.4.0.exe
download the prl file to a folder you will access later:
http://www.4shared.com/file/qryS5x4T/51720_EVDO.html
first you need to insert your 4glte sim card and
put your phone in diagnostic mode.
1. turn off phone
2. hold both the volume up and volume down buttons at the same time and press the power button.
3. volume down to the last entry bptools
4.phone will power on in diagnostic mode
5. connect your droid bionic to your computer
6. open up device manager and look under ports to find out which COM port your bionic is on (qnc diag)
if you use cdma workshop:
open up cdma workshop
scroll down to the port your phone is connected to and select it and click connect
click read to make sure you are connected (you should see the imei number among other things on the left side of the window)
select the security tab and go to the spc/user lock and click spc and click send 000000 a pop up should come up saying spc is correct phone unlocked
click ok and go to the main tab and at the bottom click where the drop down menu says cdma and select cdma-2
where the ruim section is click in the config. drop down menu and select nv only and click on write at the bottom right corner go over to the nam 1 drop down box at the bottom and select nam 2 and click write again.
go to the other tab and go to the prl section and click on write and select the prl file that you downloaded (it should be on nam 1) select nam 2 and click write again
you can now exit the program and power down the phone.
you are now ready to activate.
if you use qpst
open up qpst configuration
select the port your phone is on
at the top select start clients tab and click service programming
when the box pops up click okay
use the top arrows and arrow over to 1x hdr security tab
select the r-ium config tab and select nv only and click write at the bottom of the screen
arrow back over to the roam tab and select preferred roaming click browse and select the prl file you downloaded and click write to phone in the bottom left of the screen.
you can close the program and power down the phone
you are now ready to activate.
give the page plus people the imei # minus the last digit (the last digit of the imei number is not part of the esn) if they ask you about it tell them it is a blackberry or whatever do not tell them it is a 4g phone
when you power on the phone with the sim card in it, it should program OTA (over the air) automatically
if you are having problems with the phone programming OTA simply
dial *#*#4636#*#* and click turn radio off and
change cdma/gsm/auto PRL to cdma only and click turn radio on
power phone off and power it back on and it should OTA
if you are doing an esn change you should have talk and text. if it is a new activation you will have to make a call to activate your new #
now comes the fun part
to get 3g
remove sim card
*#*#4636#*#* turn radio off change to cdma auto prl and turn radio on
toggle dns allowed
dial ##program enter 000000 to verify and scroll down to
14 LTE test settings

disable class1 APN
disable class2 APN
power down phone and power phone back up if 3g does not come up go to settings/ about phone check and make sure you have prl version 51720
if not go back thru the qpst or cdma workshop method without the sim card in the phone and write the PRL to the phone
(make sure you change the r-uim to nv only)
As long as you stay with .902 or .905, this will work with 3G definitely.

I have tried this method below but I cant program it nor get it to make any calls. I have tried this X6 times and still have not accomplished this. Running .905 any help would be great
the entire process takes about 5 minutes after you install the software that you need.
you will need a computer, a data cable and an unused 4glte sim card and be on the .902 update
if you know how to bypass activation that will help (if you have wifi) you really need to be on the .902 update to get stable 3g
if you are not on the .902 update you will need to activate the phone or bypass activation and use wifi to download the upate and install it first,
because you will have to do or redo the activation after you install the update
to bypass activation:
Droid Bionic Bypass Activation
To bypass the activation on the Droid Bionic launch into safe mode by powering down the device and powering it back up, once the droid eye appears press and hold the volume up and down buttons simultainiously till you see the green android guy,
1. On the Welcome screen with the touch the android to begin icon, do the following:
2. Tap the top left corner of the screen then
3. Tap the top right corner of the screen then
4. Tap the bottom right corner of the screen ( just above the grey bar along the bottom with emergency dial and change language in it) then
5. Tap the bottom left corner of the screen ( just above the grey bar along the bottom with emergency dial and change language in it).
6. That’s it, should pop up the home screen shortly, if not retry. Remember not to drag your finger, simple tap top left, top right, bottom right, bottom left.
touch the menu button at the bottom left corner of the touch screen (the four squares with the top left one being solid)
touch the settings button
wireless and networks and connect to wifi
scroll down to the bottom touch about phone
at the top system updates
install update .902
now proceed with activation
this is the prl file you will need:
http://www.4shared.com/file/qryS5x4T/51720_EVDO.html
these are the driver files you will need:
http://www.motorola.com/staticfiles/...iver_5.4.0.exe
you can use this program:
http://conflipper.com/Software/QPST_2.7_366.rar
or:
http://www.cdma-ware.com/workshop/de...a_workshop.rar
install either qpst or cdma workshop on your computer (you will need the latest version):
http://conflipper.com/Software/QPST_2.7_366.rar
or
http://conflipper.com/Software/QPST_2.7_366.rar
install motorola drivers:

download the prl file to a folder you will access later:
http://www.4shared.com/file/qryS5x4T/51720_EVDO.html
first you need to insert your 4glte sim card and
put your phone in diagnostic mode.
1. turn off phone
2. hold both the volume up and volume down buttons at the same time and press the power button.
3. volume down to the last entry bptools
4.phone will power on in diagnostic mode
5. connect your droid bionic to your computer
6. open up device manager and look under ports to find out which COM port your bionic is on (qnc diag)
if you use cdma workshop:
open up cdma workshop
scroll down to the port your phone is connected to and select it and click connect
click read to make sure you are connected (you should see the imei number among other things on the left side of the window)
select the security tab and go to the spc/user lock and click spc and click send 000000 a pop up should come up saying spc is correct phone unlocked
click ok and go to the main tab and at the bottom click where the drop down menu says cdma and select cdma-2
where the ruim section is click in the config. drop down menu and select nv only and click on write at the bottom right corner go over to the nam 1 drop down box at the bottom and select nam 2 and click write again.
go to the other tab and go to the prl section and click on write and select the prl file that you downloaded (it should be on nam 1) select nam 2 and click write again
you can now exit the program and power down the phone.
you are now ready to activate.

you can close the program and power down the phone
you are now ready to activate.
give the page plus people the imei # minus the last digit (the last digit of the imei number is not part of the esn) if they ask you about it tell them it is a blackberry or whatever do not tell them it is a 4g phone
when you power on the phone with the sim card in it, it should program OTA (over the air) automatically
if you are having problems with the phone programming OTA simply
dial *#*#4636#*#* and click turn radio off and
change cdma/gsm/auto PRL to cdma only and click turn radio on
power phone off and power it back on and it should OTA
if you are doing an esn change you should have talk and text. if it is a new activation you will have to make a call to activate your new #
now comes the fun part
to get 3g
remove sim card
*#*#4636#*#* turn radio off change to cdma auto prl and turn radio on
toggle dns allowed
dial ##program enter 000000 to verify and scroll down to
14 LTE test settings
select sim type select 3g test uicc click apply
select LTE bbpanic select disable
disable class1 APN
disable class2 APN
power down phone and power phone back up if 3g does not come up go to settings/ about phone check and make sure you have prl version 51720
if not go back thru the qpst or cdma workshop method without the sim card in the phone and write the PRL to the phone
(make sure you change the r-uim to nv only)

I used this same method with success. I used QPST.
getting the phone up and runen
ok, i got as far as calls, wifi sms etc but no 3g yet, but i'll share with ya what i got off the forum here to at least get ya a little further
and i'm on eclipse .902
ok, if you start fresh, do a wipe, meaning clear cache, then do a full wipe, flash with rsd lite either stock .902 or eclipse .902
frankly, i love eclipse and couldn't go to stock again, just hate stock, bloat etc
now i am using a 3g sim card from verizon, i also have a 4g blank from verizon, what got me into this was i had my phone flashed by beigephone and they did a good job, just everything was stock, i don't want stock or bloatware, no root, and they used a 3g sim card to get the data going, that's where i'm at, with my situation, don't know what exactly they did to get it up and runnen, and i've tried all the tutorials etc on here, i'll get it eventually, but back to you,
i'm sayen grab a 3g sim card, i use cdma-ware workshop full version, yes, it's a hundred bucks, nothing against demo apps and i'm sure they are fine, but i'm all in on this stuff so i bought cdma but have used dfs and from what i can tell, their demo works fine to get things going also, what all the limits are i don't know, at least with cdma, full version, i know if i don't have something working, IT IS MY FAULT
ok, so if you can turn your phone sideways, tap the corners of the screen, you should be able to get the wifi going, grab bootstrap, get the phone rooted, one click did mine, sometimes motofail does it on certain releases sometimes it don't, and same with one click, found a file oneclick for windows that did it fine, plus grab root check from play, ok, after yer rooted and verified set yer phone to usb debug, unknown sources, boot into recovery (bp tools) hold both vol and power during all this i have my 3g sim in, now before this you plug yer phone in and copy whatever rom ya want to yer sd card, bootstrap the full version i got takes a couple reboots helps ya auto reboot and load yer rom, you probably already got this far, so after all this and yer loaded up root yer phone again, load cdma up or dfs, i'll go from cdma that's the one i know really, from bp tools ya connect via workshop and read the phone, then under other spc send six zeros, that unlocks, go back to main tab, bottom make sure cdma enter yer phone data yer min and dir etc are yer number 1234567890 cdma2 nv ruim only, load yer prl for all this read and write to nam 1 and 2 they do both in cdma just maken sure, disconnect reboot, now, the evdo settings, you can search the forum here on how to get yer data, coz i don't have it yet, and have tried darn near everything, i'll get it tho, ok when phone reboots star pound 4636 star pound choose cdma auto prl allow dns exit make sure radio is on, at this go to ##program activation enter your SID, mine is 32, have to find what yers is, there's links on here about the different settings in ##program but basically yer phone at this point should be able to make a call, check voice mail and sms etc i ain't good at explainen exactly but have done this few times and have always gotten the phone solid just no 3g yet if ya need help further skype: allen-sec or yahoo: allensecz, or message me i'll give ya my number
the bionic is the first and only phone i've done so far, and loving this stuff, just to be able to help folks get out of expensive contracts with nice phones, i mean i'm on pp and pay less than half a month as a lot of contracts, so anyway, hope this helps sincerely mrbeav
Actually it became tooooo easy with these official ICS ROMs.
there is a thread in howardforums.com.
Droid BIONIC ICS manual activation,talk, text, mms, 3g all working
If couldn't write MIN and MDN in programming menu, just back to BP tools, write MIN there. Back to normal mode into programming menu, you will be able to write MDN in there.
Alright boys and girls I've been working on this for a week now and I think I've finally got the fix for this...
UPDATE: WORKING 3G DATA AND MMS WITH ICS!
So for you GB lovers here's the way you get solid 3G Data and MMS with GB .905
You will need:
1.) Motorola Droid Bionic phone
2.) Your MDN/MIN information from Page Plus, use this link to have this information sent to your email:
2.) The required software support package:
Mirror1 or Mirror2
3.) 1 Blank 4G LTE Verizon Sim Card (Amazon, Ebay, or just go to a couple Verizon stores, eventually an employee will sell you one without to many questions...)
4.) 1 3G TMobile or ATT Sim Card, doesn't have to be activated just something you have laying around will work. As of the time of this write up I haven't tested with 4G cards but I imagine this method wouldn't work.
5.) Time, Patience, and a few prayers to the Wireless Gods might be a good idea...
PLEASE PLEASE MAKE SURE PHONE IS 100% CHARGE AND DATA IS BACKED UP BEFORE PROCEEDING
ALL DATA ON PHONE WILL BE ERASED, SD SHOULD NOT BE ERASED BUT BACK IT UP JUST IN CASE.
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE!
STEP 1: Software Provision your Phone
Start by uninstalling any older Motorola drivers you have installed, then download the newest driver package from Motorola -
Install RSD Lite
Now turn phone off, and insert 4G LTE Verizon Sim
Start up phone in "AP FastBoot Flash Mode"
Do this by holding both volume keys while pressing the power button on the phone. Once your presented with a menu use the "vol down" key to move to your selection then press the "vol up" key to select that option.
Start RSD Lite and select .905 Firmware and Restore
After flash is complete, start phone in Recovery Mode
Do this by holding both volume keys while pressing the power button on the phone. Once your presented with a menu use the "vol down" key to move to your selection then press the "vol up" key to select that option.
Once you see the Android Icon with the Exclamation mark, press both volume keys at the same time. That will bring you to a menu, from there select "Wipe Cache", after that is finished, select "Format/Wipe Factory Defaults" as soon as that finishes select "Reboot Phone"
Power off phone, and boot into "BP Tools"
Do this by holding both volume keys while pressing the power button on the phone. Once your presented with a menu use the "vol down" key to move to your selection then press the "vol up" key to select that option.
Once phone is completely booted you should be presented with a activation screen, ignore that for now, and run the "DFS CDMA Tool" program.
Once your in DFS make sure you phone is plugged in, and in "BP Tools" mode otherwise you won't see any ports.
Now select the phone port from the list, should look like the one in the image below...
Click the SPC Button, Log Window should have result like image below
Now click the "Programming" tab and then the "General" tab. Change the "Ruim Config" to NV_ONLY and click "Write"
After that, click the "Data" tab, and enter your 10 digit phone number in place of the 5551234 numbers
Under the "Mode:" section, change the "HDR SCP force AT config:" option to "RevA_MFPA", click "Write"
Your end results should look EXACTLY as mine do in the image below...
Close DFS after your sure you have written all the settings above to your phone.
Now open CDMA Workshop and connect to your phone, click the "Nam" tab, click on the "Load" button on the bottom of the page, browse to the file provided in the software package, "Bionic_PagePlus_NAM1.txt" and click "Write"
Click on the "Other" tab, under the "PRL" section click the "Write" button, browse to the "PagePlus_51720.prl" and click "OK"
If CDMA Workshop responds with Success then your done with the initial programming of your phone...
STEP 2: PHONE PROGRAMMING
Now Power Off your phone and then power back on normally, at this point you should have completed the steps above and have the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Sim Card in the phone
Click the Next button to setup your phone, you should get a screen similar to the one below..
Touch the "Emergency Call" button and enter *228 and press Send, you will probably get a error screen regarding your sim card, IGNORE this message, and continue to click "Emergency Call" and then entering *228 and pressing Send
You may have to dial the *228 multiple times in order for it to start activation, eventually it will call out and you will get a screen like this one:
*If you cannot get your phone to program after multiple attempts then try this:
Dial *#*#4636#*#*
Scroll down to "Set preferred network type:" select "CDMA Only"
Touch "Turn off radio" wait until you have to wireless connection and then touch "Turn on radio"
Now try programming again with *228
Touch "Speaker" or wait until the automated system answers and when prompted press "1" and wait, be patient this may take a minute.
Your phone is now receiving your programming information from Page Plus...
Once this process is complete and your phone is now activated, Dial ##PROGRAM and touch Send
When prompted enter "000000" for your SPC Password
Now scroll the the bottom of the page, touch "14 LTE test settings"
Touch "SIM type", select "3G test UICC"
Touch "LTE bppanic", select "Disable"
Touch "Disable Class1 APN"
Touch "Disable Class2 APN"
Touch "Enable Class3 APN"
Touch "LTE Movement Detection" select "Disabled"
Now go back one screen and touch "06 Test Mode"
Touch "Next", "Next", Touch "Network mode", select "CDMA Auto PRL", back out of programming menu to home screen.
So far so good, were almost there... Now power off your phone
Insert ATT or TMobile 3G Sim Card, and power on phone
If you have followed all the steps exactly you should now have working 3G Data and MMS on Page Plus with your Bionic. It should remain stable through reboots without any issues, I used mine like this for over a month.
Below are the steps for working 3G Data and MMS using ICS .247
!WARNING - IF YOU UPDATE TO ICS LEAK .247 YOU CAN NEVER GO BACK TO .905 OR GINGERBREAD! YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE IF YOU TRY!
!WARNING! - IF YOU UPDATE TO ICS LEAK .232 AT THIS POINT YOUR MMS WILL NO LONGER WORK, YOU WILL HAVE DATA BUT NO MMS
I will update this post with more instructions and pictures in 24-48 hours for ICS .247 with working 3G Data and MMS...
For ICS .247 visit the "House of Bionic" website and download the leaked ICS .247, follow their instructions exactly and read ALL warnings
Once you have flashed to the latest leak, follow the DFS steps above, and flash the "57120" Page Plus PRL using CDMA Workshop
Reboot Phone and touch the "Emergency Dialer" button, Dial *228 until you get to the activation screen, wait until prompted and press "1", wait for you phone to be programmed.
That's it, your done, no other steps should be needed to have working 3G Data and MMS with the ICS leak .247
!WARNING! - THIS DOES NOT AND WILL NOT WORK WITH ANY ICS LEAK PRIOR TO .247!
Alright hopefully you now have your Bionic working on Page Plus with full data and mms.. Enjoy!
UPDATE:
Apparently XDA requires me to have a minimum of 10 posts before I can add outside links to my post, I have a version completed with external links so maybe a moderator can waive this or if someone else wan'ts to post it just PM me and you can post it...
.905 Gingerbread
3G Data and MMS holding steady through multiple restarts, no extra steps have been required..
.232 ICS
3G Data works but no MMS, I do not think you can have working MMS with .232 I believe it is just a bug...
.247 ICS
3G Data and MMS working perfectly, if you follow steps above don't change anything under the ##PROGRAM menu, leave everything on 4G settings just like default.
Only thing you have to do is flash a Page Plus prl and *228 for initial programming and everything works great!
Will be glad to see this updated with more details.
I updated my phone to .905, redid everything, had PP reactivate it, but cannot get it activated OTA.
EDIT - I factory reset the phone, the activation screen came up, and it seems to be working! only have 1x at the moment, but hey, I'm happy.
will be glad to see your steps for 3G and ICS
Anyone know where I can get a 3g sim card locally? I see some on ebay but if possible I would like to get this working today. Also, do I need the 3g sim card if I'm on ICS .247?

Is there any hope we'll see updates in this thread for PP on the OTA ICS?
Thats pretty interestin I wonder if similar methods will work for metro PCs and cricket

basically what i mean is that im going to update the Bionic to ICS...
and im using the phone for business w/ page pluss... so i wont even have data on the phone... so im wondering what i an do with Stock ICS....
After that, click the "Data" tab, and enter your 10 digit phone number in place of the 5551234 numbers
Under the "Mode:" section, change the "HDR SCP force AT config:" option to "RevA_MFPA", click "Write"
can someone tell me what box the 5551234 numbers are in? They are all blank for me.
question on activation
thanx a lot appreciate the post
Those are your MDN/MIN numbers, ... one of them is your actual phone number, the other is a phone number that your service provider uses on their switch to identify you with...
To get your MDN/MIN numbers for page plus, google:
"Page Plus Phone Status Report Form - Kitty Wireless"
Enter your email and phone number and they will email you a report that will show both your MDN and MIN numbers....
ref: 3G data
ok, i'm on eclipse 2.2 .902 build
i've gotten everything else to work except data
from what i've read my mdn number is my phone number
also, and the phone activates over the air using the 14 digit
instead of 15 my imei is 15 digit but my meid is 14 digit
got 3g and 4g sim cards both from verizon
only time i've been able to see any data at all was when i had
the 4g sim in the phone and get this: went to disable radio
that's when the phone would sorta "hang" and 3g would show up
then go away, and this happens only once in a while
i've done about every tutorial i can find, only thing is i don't want to
go to a stock rom really love eclipse 2.2 and others have data going on
that rom also, so it's something i'm doing wrong
i also get the same results when i'm on eclipse 3.0 so again, it's not the rom
it's me, goofen something up
even when i went in to the verizon store, they were cool and told me themselves
this phone has been problematic for them on full contracts getting data to run
at least that's what the rep said about our area
i have my sid set to 32, i've tried with and without sim in the phone
i love this phone, i'll get the data worken on it one way or another
if ya can lend a hand for few minutes skype allen-sec
or yahoo allensecz
to all those who have spoon fed me with yer replies and posts,
thank you very much, i've learned a lot here on xda, do my best
to pay it forward

Re-activating phone on Page Plus after OTA update
1. Remove any old Motorola Droid Bionic drivers you may have on your computer and install the newest ones.
2. Turn phone off and turn back on in BPTools mode. Then plug the phone into your computer via USB.
3. Open DFS. Click "Ports" and select the COM port for your phone. Next, click the "SPC" button.
4. Click the "Programming" tab and then the "General" tab. Change the "Ruim Config" to NV_ONLY and click "Write".
5. Click the "Data" tab. Under the "Mode" section, change the "HDR SCP force AT config" option to "RevA_MFPA" and click "Write".
6. Close DFS and unplug phone from USB port.
7. Go to the dialer and dial ##7764726 (##PROGRAM). When prompted for an SPC password, enter "000000" and hit verify.
8. Go to "06 Test Mode". Hit "Next" twice. Then, change the Network mode to "CDMA Only".
9. Back out to the home screen; the phone will automatically restart.
10. After the phone has restarted, go to the dialer and dial *22800. Ignore any SIM card error messages you may see; just keep trying *22800 until you reach the activation screen.
11. Follow the instructions to activate the phone.
To get 3G working on your activated phone
1. Go to the dialer and dial *#*#4636#*#* (*#*#info#*#*).
2. Open "Phone information" and scroll down; click the button that reads "Turn off radio".
3. From the same screen, set the preferred network type to "CDMA auto (PRL)". Then turn the radio back on. The 3G notification should appear shortly.
I hope this helps someone!

After that, click the "Data" tab, and enter your 10 digit phone number in place of the 5551234 numbers
Under the "Mode:" section, change the "HDR SCP force AT config:" option to "RevA_MFPA", click "Write"
can someone tell me what box the 5551234 numbers are in? They are all blank for me.

I'm wondering the same thing. The question isn't what the 10 digit numbers are, but where are you supposed to enter them? The picture would be helpful here. Is anyone willing to upload those pictures for the OP or can the OP share the pictures some other way until you can post them?
Which field specifically are you supposed to enter the 10 digit phone number into on the "Data" tab?
In other guides they suggest rebooting the phone and editing the min/mdn by dialing ##program and choosing option 1. I tried that but I wasn't able to write those values. Anyone had luck doing it that way?

I messaged the OP weeks ago to take him/her up on posting the pics and links, I received no response.
I had all the same problems as you so I just skipped those steps. worked fine for me, my phone is working perfectly. my phone was previously activated but I did two full resets after the update so I don't think any PP programming was 'left over', but who knows.
to be honest I think the howardforums ics/bionic thread is more helpful than this one (pics, links, etc) here's a direct link:

Hello,
TL;DR: I cannot unlock my Huawei P10 device, PIN code was not changed by me, but the device does not recognize it. Need to remove PIN or push forward without resetting.
Long version: I was driving with my device connected through Android Auto, Spotify was playing and I was tracking an order through Uber Eats that should arrive a bit after I got home.
After parking the vehicle, the music died, and so did the phone. After taking the cable out and trying to restart the device, it came back up.
However, even though it accepts the SIM card PIN, it does not accept the Screen unlock PIN (which is actually the same). After rebooting, it still does not accept the PIN and I'm not waiting for 1h before I can try a new code.
In order to insert the SIM PIN, I have to press OK, but the screen PIN does not, I just add the PIN and it unlocks.
Can anyone make heads or tails out of this situation and help me recover access to the smartphone without doing a factory reset and losing all the unsaved data?

Give your girlfriend her phone back if you feel insecure about your relationship it's better to talk to her about it, if you can't do that then it's best to just leave
Also if that is your phone and not your girlfriend's then you might be giving it a hard reset unless you have developer options open with enabled USB debugging and a computer nearby

It's not my wife's phone, it's mine Plus, if I wanted to do such a thing, I just need to use finger unlock
I do have developer options open, not sure about the USB debugging, but it might not be because I've been trying with ADB and whatever commands I could find, but so far no success....

I use to sell drugs to a guy who named himself jimmy_jams on telegram. Your not Australian are you
No, I'm not.
Also, is there no solution to this problem? Do I really need to do a factory reset?
