Need help getting original Sprint settings???

I was messing around with QPST and I changed the Sprint settings on my Hero, I changed the M.IP user profile 0 and 1, I need the NAI and Tethered NAI settings.
The PPP Config UM and AN settings, I need the user ID and tethered NAI, any help you could give would be most appreciated.

Sounds to me like you fu*ked up but don't worry. Push ##DATA# wait a second then push edit mode. It will ask you for a password enter your msl. Then push menu and push restore your phone will turn off then on. When it turns back on go to settings/about phone/system updates/update profile. Click update profile it will take a sec and your done. Forgot to mention you should be running stock sprint rom and sprint prl. You should be good. Out of curiousity what were you trying to accomplish? There's probably a easier less qpst way

Cool Atrix Hacks!

*** WARNING!! THESE SETTING ARE PRIMARILY FOR MOD DEVELOPERS OR FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME WHO CONSTANTLY RESET TO FACTORY DEFAULTS. WHILE THESE SETTING CAN BE APPLIED WITHOUT FACTORY RESETTING, IT IS A LITTLE MORE DIFFICULT -- YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!! ****
**UPDATE** Great supplementary guide by Amil: http://www.amilkhanzada.com/2012/03/how-to-enable-select-network-on.html?m=1
Hello All! I'll get straight to the point.
I was playing around with some files, and noticed a bunch of configuration files in the '/system/etc/motorola/' directory. This directory is filled with custom setting that are applied after a factory reset. Here are some examples that I have played with:
File: /system/etc/motorola/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/settings.mkitso:
Setting: - Enable the 'Unknown sources' check box (Allows you to install non-market apps)
Code:
force_only_market_apps=0
File: /system/etc/motorola/com.motorola.blur.setup/defaults.xml
Setting: - Allow you the option of bypassing the Motoblur setup altogether
Code:
<boolean name='ShowSkipSetupMenu' value='true'/>
File: /system/etc/motorola/com.android.phone/defaults.xml
Setting: - Unlocks the mobile networks, 'Select network' and 'Operator selection
Code:
<boolean name='network_select_menu' value='true'/>

I have completed a test and can confirm that "Use Wireless Network" check box is "agps and wifi positioning" controlled with one check box. I would argue that the suggested modification to display the AGPS checkbox is legacy feature and unneccasary. Exposing both check boxes in the GUI will most likely get the files out of sync that these check boxes write to. You can confirm that the "Use Wireless Network" check box enables agps by using maps over cellular data (3G required) with GPS and wifi turned off. You'll notice that maps will find your location. This is agps. While we are on the subject, the menu option with the "2G check box", has been replaced with the 'Select network' menu with 2G/3G/Automatic.
I kind of wish that the original posts would be updated as people are being mislead in this thread. The AGPS configuration does not need to be modified. In this situation, the stock settings are already optimized for agps, wifi and gps as well as the optimal server.

Here are some other interesting setting that I haven't had a chance to play with yet:
File: /system/etc/motorola/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/settings.mkitso
Setting: - Unknown
Code:
dun_enable=1
Bluetooth_Dun_Enabled=true
Not sure what these do, but if you find out, please post it in this thread.
Thanks and I hope you all find these settings useful. Also, from my limited testing, the settings are only applied after a factor reset. This helpful for mod developers and those of use who that factory reset our devices often--the setting are automatically applied after a hard reset.

Great explanation provided by forum member jjwatmyself:

This is the Atrix, proof of concept for Enable mobile networks settings: 'Select network' and 'Operator selection' that are greyed out in 4.1.83.
FALSE
INCOMPLETE METHOD
Here is the complete method. I decided to post as I had some issues getting the described methods to work also.
Thanks to to mistadman and crnkoj and liranm2. My post is simply to join all of the items into a single method and provide information on what the resulting un-greyed settings do.
End result is that this method works flawlessly providing that all of the following steps are completed.
1) Edit the following files:
/system/etc/motorola/com.android.phone/defaults.xml
/data/data/com.android.phone/shared_prefs/settings.xml
/data/data/com.android.phone/shared_prefs/com.android.phone_preferences.xml
/data/data/com.android.phone/shared_prefs/_has_set_default_values.xml
Setting:
2) When I initially tested, I found that the files would revert to their original state after rebooting, but on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1108181 member liranm2 states that YOU MUST DELETE THE BACKUP XML FILES THAT ROOT EXPLORER CREATES.
3) Reboot phone.
In summary, the above changes provide un-greyed options under Settings, Wireless & networks, Mobile networks as follows:
1) Select network
2) Operator selection
'Select network' provides the following options:
2G only = GSM only = lowest battery consumption, with slowest data speeds
3G only = WCDMA only = highest battery consumption, with fastest data speeds
Automatic = GMS auto (PRL) = medium battery consumption, with fastest data speeds when 3G towers are 'preferred' over 2G towers. This is based on what the towers advertise as being available. i.e. if a 2G tower has a stronger signal than another 2G/3G capable tower, then use 2G.
Automatic uses less juice becasue:
2G uses less juice
a stronger signal will yield lower transmit power consumption by the phone, i.e. don't force 3G if there is a stronger signal available at 2G.
'Operator selection':
Search networks = see all of the providers that your radio is compatible with, i.e. providers transmiting on frequencies your device supports.
Select automatically = will prompt every time your phone moves between different services that your provider offers that are not considered roaming.
On AT&T's network, using Any Cut to run Activity, GSM/UMTS Options provides a slight variation of the above menu. This can be used without modifying files. Instead we get a 'Use only 2G networks' check box which causes the phone to switch between GSM Only and GSM auto (PRL).
All of the methods described have the same result as dialing *#*#4636#*#*, then Phone Information, Set preferred network type. The acronyms shown on this menu most likely do not mean what you think they mean, hence the descriptions included in this post. Alternate method is to use Any Cut to run Activity and select Phone Information (thanks Vangelis13).
I'll post a link to this on the GingBlur thread to see if Ken will include these changes in his next version. My opinion is that having these settings would take the phone closer to a native build.
BTW Nice comments from crnkoj. Although I did not need to modify any settings.db files in any way, those files have some pretty interesting fields in them, just nothing that appears to be network_select_menu related.
Files listed below are for references purposes only. DO NOT MODIFY!!!

No this is not a sim unlock, it is supposed to allow you to select EDGE instead of HSPA+ however I was not able to get this to work after rebooting.

eheh sideload enable....nice =)

Unfortunately, you will have to perform a factory reset in order for the changes to apply. As I said before, this only works after a factory reset.

basically there are even more hacks possible in the subdirectories of the /system/etc/motorola/ directory. Thers one for sms delivery notification aswell, and the max allowed number of sent MMS/SMS at once (to different recipients), thers more things in there that i dont even know what the parameters mean. As for some of the hacks the values are being duplicated in /data/data/ and than com.each.particular.setting at first boot (ie when the phone is new, factory restored or sbf flashed) and is than maintained there, so even if you would change some of the settings in /system/etc/motorola/ it might not have an effect until you either factory restore (which is mega unconvenient) or go to the respective directory in /data/data/ and edit (mostly the files are saved in settings.db in those directories) the values in the settings.db there. by cleverly modifying those in the /data/data/bla bla and putting in read only tags into the settings.db you can in fact modify some things that are at times rather bothersome.

you dont have to factory restore it as a matter of fact. just go to:
/data/data/com.android.phone/shared_prefs edit this file: _has_set_default_values.xml which is a duplicate of the one from the /system (the defaults.xml) and write true in it, reboot and voila you have 2g/3g selector enabled.

Crnkoj, you are absolutely correct! However, making changes there will be lost after a factory reset. The beauty of modifying the configurations via the '/system/etc/motorola' directory is that the changes will become permanent.
So modifying both locations would probably be best for those who don't factory reset as much as I do Thanks for pointing this out crnkoj. I should have mentioned this in my original post.

yes i meant you have to change both and many are using gingerblur so a factory reset rather ****s up the phone, so thats a better solution than factory reset

I am not clear on this:
Change
/system/etc/motorola/com.motorola.blur.setup/defaults.xml
and
/data/data/com.android.phone/shared_prefs/_has_set_default_values.xml
to be the same?

hmm does any one know how to get motoblur back. I didnt turn it off using one of those methods im not even sure how my account got deleted but does anyone know if theres a way to get motoblur account back. none of my facebook contacts are syncing

Tried too changing in both files, and 2g/3g menu didn't appear!!
I never use mob net to access the web..
For motoblur account, if you intalled gingerblur, try restoring bloatware

I've gotten it back before when I disabled it doing the keypress during first boot. It prompted me again trying to do a software update, which I ended up doing as I was to lazy to use rsd

awesome POST. thanks brother =)
BUT... it looks like my speeds are super similar with 2G enabled vs not... ? =/

I do believe on att network this option even if enabled, doesnt change your connection type...

So is there a way to enable the sideloading without using another method (ie sideloading wonder machine, gladenable) and without having to do a factory reset? Is there some other file we can edit that will enable it?

You need to be rooted, than you can change these settings/databases to enable sideloading.

[Q] Images are small in Browsers, Google reader etc...[RESOLVED]

First, I'm on a GT-N7000 running android 4.0.4 build Kernel version 3.0.15-N7000UBLR3-CL890184. I was running the stock android 2.3 until I updated over Kies air about a week ago which caused the problem that I'm having. I noticed it first in the stock browser which is Entel (Chilean mobile service provider) branded. Web pages were loading really strangely; small, to the left, and disorganized. I installed Chrome but it had the same problem. So then I chose the "request desktop version" option in Chrome and it started working right, and then did the same in the stock browser and it worked right there too. But only for a little while. After I left the program and came back a few hours later and tried to look at a different web page the problem had returned. I noticed that the "request desktop version" box had become unchecked so I checked it again, and this time it didn't fix the problem. I went into task manager and closed the program and then opened it again checked the "request desktop version" and this time it did work. Then I left again for a few hours and came back to it and it didn't have any problems, then I left it again for a few hours and came back and it did. Then I noticed that the images in Google Reader were smaller then they were supposed to be and when I clicked on the link to the web page the image was from, the browser didn't load it right again. "Request desktop version" didn't fix it. I long pressed on the image and choose "view image in new tab" and the image loaded small again and even when you zoomed in it was all pixelated, but then I chose "request desktop version" again and this time it worked and when I reloaded the original web page where the image was from it worked, though the image was still small in the Google Reader app, though the image in the next post was fine. Also, when I'm having problems in the browser facebook app seems to load things weird too, though it usually acts fine when I'm not. What the ____ is going on?
TL;DR What system resource is causing html (and especially images) to load small and funky across many different apps? See attached images for examples.

go to applications > all > Internet > clear data and try again

I tried that, and it seemed to work at first, but then the problem came back. I then cleared data on Internet and Chrome with the same result.

plugins enabled ?
in browser settings > advanced

Shown as "Always on"

java script?
Under bandwidth management, load images?

I only have "preload search results" and "load images" as options under bandwidth management. For "preload search results" WiFi only is selected, for "load images" there is no sub-heading of "java script" available, just a check box, which is checked.

no no, java script is under advanced. They were 2 different option. sorry to confuse you.

It's ok. Java-script is checked. Should I un-check and save and then re-check and save any of these options? any way that might help?

its checked on mine and the pages load fine. so it should be checked.
---------- Post added at 12:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:15 AM ----------
are you using the mobile network or wifi.?

I know it happens on mobile network, and I think it happens on WiFi, but I'm not sure. And again, it doesn't happen all the time (though maybe this is because it doesn't happen on WiFi and always happens on mobile, I'm not sure)

check if you access point names are set to correct setting if it only happen using mobile network. else if happens on wifi as well, may be worth trying a factory reset, but make sure you on a safe kernel and backup your data

Access point names?

yeah the one in
settings/more/mobile network settings

OK, well here are the screenshots of what I have under APNs. You can compare that with another pic I've uploaded and what's listed here: http://www.mobilecloseup.com/foro/showthread.php?t=953558 and here: http://empresas.entel.cl/PortalEmpr...nfpb=true&_pageLabel=P14404727181299181386406 There seem to be some differences, but I'm not sure they are important.

best to find out from your providers. for me it looks ok

So, I checked again to make sure, and while google seems to work, and some websites work better then others, pretty much all of them are messed up only when I'm mobile network and nothing is messed up when I'm on WiFi. What can I do to fix the APN's? What do I have to tell my cell service provider?

first try to remove and reenter them. check for the correct setting s from them.

FIXED
So here is the full fix:
The problem is that web pages don't load right after an android 4.0.4 ICS update, though probably it would have the same problem after updating to 4.1 Jelly Bean or any other update. Webpages load small because the APN gets reset to Entel's mobile internet server (bam.entelpcs.cl) instead of full internet server (imovil.entelpcs.cl). All you have to do is create a new APN and choose it. To this go to Settings>Wireless and network>More...>Mobile networks>Access Point Names>Menu button>New APN.
The new APN should have these settings:
NAME: Internet Móvil [don't really think the "ó" is important]
APN: imovil.entelpcs.cl
Proxy: not set
Port: not set
User name: entelpcs
Password: entelpcs
Server: Not set
MMSC: Not set
MMS proxy: Not set
MMS port: Not set
MCC: 730
MNC: 01
Authentication type: PAP
APN type: internet
APN protocol: IPv4
Enable/disable APN: APN enabled
Bearer: Unspecified
After you create it, make sure it is chosen and not the bam.entelpcs.cl option
One other thing, I changed Settings>Wireless and network>More...>Mobile networks>Network mode to GSM only, but when I did this it got stuck on E network only and wouldn't connect to 3G or H or H+, so I changed it back. Also, when I was trying to figure this out I went into Settings>Wireless and network>More...>Mobile networks>Network operators and chose Entel, but I don't think this was necessary.

glad you solved it

t-mobile apn settings

I have a Moto X DE (edit: forgot to add t-mobile) and everything works fine, including LTE (when I can get it in this area). But I have noticed that every where I look, among the suggested APN settings are this:
APN type: default,supl,admin,dun,mms
but mine are set to this:
APN type: default,mms,supl,hipri,fota
Is this normal? Should I change anything or leave it since 'it ain't broke"?
Also, my password has **** (4 asterisks) and my server has * (one asterisk). This also sounds abnormal as everything I find says it should be "not set". Don't ask me what the asterisks actually are.

Various providers have slightly different APN settings. If you don't experience any troubles with mobile data and mms, leave everything as it is and enjoy.:laugh:

Sprint Hotspot Mod Working!!!

I just received my Note 9 and have been playing around with things. After doing a little research and piecing together a couple of different posts, I can confirm that I have Sprint Hotspot working. The steps are as follows:
1. Download Shortcut Master Lite from the Play Store.
2. Open Dialer
3. Dial ##brand# (##27263#)
4. Say yes/accept everything - phone reboots
5. Open Shortcut Master Lite and select the Menu (three vertical dots in the upper right).
6. Select App Explorer, and then All Apps
7. Navigate (scroll down) to com.test.LTEfunctionality and select.
8. Select the first item labled "LTEFunctionalityTest" and select launch.
9. Scroll down to LTE APN Setting and select.
10. Select APN2 LTE/EHRPD internet
11. Scroll down to APN type and select.
12. Add "DUN" to the setting (it should read "default,mms,DUN") without quotations. Also make sure there is no space between the comma and DUN.
13. Select Menu and save your settings
14. Reboot
Congratulations, your device now has Sprint Native Hotspot!
Update : You must reapply if you update profile!
Disable automatic updates so that profile updates do not remove!

Assuming you got the unlocked version?

Nope, I have the Sprint version. Ordered directly through Sprint

Didnt work for me. Anything else you tried that might of made it worked for you?
edit: wth? So earlier I was messing with another method through adb shell and I was afraid maybe I had messed something up so I wanted to undo it all. The guide said to use this commands
Code:
settings put global tether_dun_required 1
Code:
settings put global tether_dun_apn null
then I removed the DUN from apn setting on shortcut master and now the hotspot works? makes no sense but I'll take it lol
Edit 2: Apparently my plan comes with 10gb of hotspot which is why it was working after removing all custom settings. I just went past the 10gb and it has now slowed down to 2g speeds (text from sprint)

Didn't work for me either. I get a you are not subscribed to hotspot. Are you sure you don't need root access for this?

Worked for me
Thank you kindly

If you believe this worked for you, check your sprint account usage because I'm pretty sure all new sprint unlimited plans come with 10gb hotspot so you might be using that up thinking this worked. That's what happened to me lol

Awesome!

Worked perfect for me. Older plan and do not pay for hotspot.

So it seems to only work for people with no hotspot plan then. Can any of you guys with it working enable it and then dial ##33284# and look under active apn connections and see what comes up? You should hide your ip tho if you post a screenshot. Mainly looking at what is under Active APN 1 and 2

With mine turned on and my laptop connected it says "There are no Active APN Connections"

I've been messing around with this for the last couple of days and I figured I would post here everything I have tried and my findings in case someone with more knoledge in this wants to try and figure out a working fix
I had an s8+ previous to this note 9 that had hotspot enable by this two adb shell commands
Code:
settings put global tether_dun_required 0
Code:
settings put global tether_dun_apn "APNDUN,n.ispsn,,,,,,http://mms.sprintpcs.com,68.28.31.7,80,310,120,,default,dun,mms,supl"
while the hotspot is on, I dialed ##DEBUG# and can see TWO separate active APN connections to n.ispsn and I have internet on my phone and my laptop that is connected to the hotspot.
Now on the note 9, I tried those exact commands and got "couldn't connect to APN" followed by hotspot not enabled in account. Looking a bit closer I noticed that through Shortcut Master edit thing, the note 9 only has one APN instead of the two that all other galaxy phones have had to this point. Instead of
Code:
APN2 LTE Internet
&
Code:
APN2 EHRPD Internet
there is now only one called
Code:
APN2 LTE|EHRPD Internet
. This also has x.ispsn instead of n.ispsn like on the previous galaxy devices so it seem the are now using Sprints new APN. I swapped those in the command above and entered this on adb shell
Code:
settings put global tether_dun_apn "APNDUN,x.ispsn,,,,,,http://mms.sprintpcs.com,68.28.31.7,80,310,120,,default,dun,mms,supl"
This allowed me to enable hotspot but after connecting my laptop to it I got no internet. I checked again under ##DEBUG# and Active APN Connections shows just one Active APN to x.ispns. I tried different ways of enabling the hotspot including date off->hotspot on->data on. data off->hotspot on->connect laptop->data on. But still no internet. It seems that the hotspot is not setting up a connection to the APN x.ispns at all which is why I get no internet.
In the mean time, the app EasyTether Pro does work to set up a wired connection to a PC so that's what I'll be using until a fix is found for this. Sorry for long post lol

I've been messing around with this for the last couple of days and I figured I would post here everything I have tried and my findings in case someone with more knoledge in this wants to try and figure out a working fix
I had an s8+ previous to this note 9 that had hotspot enable by this two adb shell commands
Code:
settings put global tether_dun_required 0
Code:
settings put global tether_dun_apn "APNDUN,n.ispsn,,,,,,http://mms.sprintpcs.com,68.28.31.7,80,310,120,,default,dun,mms,supl"
while the hotspot is on, I dialed ##DEBUG# and can see TWO separate active APN connections to n.ispsn and I have internet on my phone and my laptop that is connected to the hotspot.
Now on the note 9, I tried those exact commands and got "couldn't connect to APN" followed by hotspot not enabled in account. Looking a bit closer I noticed that through Shortcut Master edit thing, the note 9 only has one APN instead of the two that all other galaxy phones have had to this point. Instead of
Code:
APN2 LTE Internet
&
Code:
APN2 EHRPD Internet
there is now only one called

I am sorry you are having so many problems. Are you on an unlocked version? Mine is Sprint branded bought directly from Sprint. This may be the difference. I came over from the Pixel XL and the steps there involved editing the build.prop file and an ADB command similar to your steps.

Yeah so is mine. I can't think of why it would work with someone but not others. Can you check on shortcut master again to see if you have n.ispsns or x.ispns. Also what plan do you have with sprint
