Lost Network setting G3 Samsung - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

Dreaded VM phone lost meid.
Service will not allow reactivation
I have serial and hex is there an app
To help edit or reenter the settings.
I noticed. In europe they have web pages about this. But for their countries system towers .
I realize swapping phones is not allowed but reinstalling your actual
# meid should fairly simple most likely a program converts your serial
Access code to generate all settings
On that unique phone hex generator.
Any thoughts are appreciated I noticed in CYn11 your settings were
Visible.
Thanks Doug

CommMgrPro. Looking for GSM-GPS mappers

HI.
CommMgrPro is and one year old Hermes project. CommMgrPro is:
1) Automatic profile tool based on Location (GSM cell) and schedules.
2) Battery and Current draw monitory tool.
3) Communication manager.
4) -> It allow to upload cell changes to the server and if you have GPS It can take the coordenates so you can track your movements on the server using Google Maps. Apart of this we are creating automatically a big database matching CELL - OPERATOR - GPS coords.
So.....We are giving for free licenses to people interested on the project and interested on increasing the database. Simply install the program, use it to upload cells and if you ve uploaded cells you will get a free license. More info in www.commmgrpro.com
Thanks
It is interesting. However, I am concern about the privacy. Does the program upload ANYTHING else other than the Cells information?
How do you protect the information which user sends to your server? Can we delete the data completely off from your server?
EDIT:
I just checked your website and seems you allow user to login and check the cell info. However, the login and registration pages are not using SSL.
yes, thats truth.
User can choose which fields to be uploaded to the server (8 possible fields). But you can change the URL to test by yourself the data. At least users should upload Location (Cell/Lac), Phone operator, GPS coords and (owner_name and/or Device ID to identify the user who uploaded the data. Well, you can disable owner name and Device ID (imei) but we wont know who is upload that data). There are two main tables.
1) Cell-operator-gps. Thats the interesting table for CMP. No user data.
2) Location changes. Interesting for user to track movements on google maps. Data's rows are deleted each 72 hours but can be removed more frequently if users wants.
NO Https. Yes, we thought data was critial but We will put an special HTTPS port...

very interesting application Daniel!!
btw i have a question for you: is it possible to upload before a list of cells with also other informations included (like address, owner, power, or other) to display on screen once the bts is locked?
thanks
ciao
fausto
Well, currently It lets you upload 8 fields but I can more info if needed. This project is alive and I post new releases every two or three weeks.....

Are licenses still be given out for free? I already have a paid licence for bandswitch.
How does this compete with Navizon?
competition
Here's the differences. navizon uses a trial period program that supposedly gives you cash back for usage but the kicker is when the trial expires. CommMgrPro usage gets you a free license to the program itself since the database needs to be updated which is similar to navizon. What you're getting out of it is the difference.

please, help me switch sprint-diamond-6950 from MEID to ESN

my operator use huawei networks, and this system don't support MEID for EVDO registration.
i compare layes3 trace for both terminal, Sprint-Novatel-U727 and Sprint-HTC-Diamond-Touch.
and found problem in "Session Setup" phase.
when terminals send 1xEV Signaling Access Channel -- HardwareIDResponse:
Sprint-Novatel-U727 send hardware_id_type = 0x10000 + ESN - and network answer,
but Sprint-HTC-Diamond-Touch send hardware_id_type = 0xFFFF + MEID and network stop answer.
so, i think my operator don't support MEID, and need switch diamond from MEID to ESN.
i'm not programmer, but i looking for 7500 code, hdramp.c/hdramp.h
and found hdramp.session_info.session_hwid.type parameter
with HDRAMP_HARDWARE_ID_TYPE_ESN or HDRAMP_HARDWARE_ID_TYPE_MEID value.
i try sprint and telus radio, but always MEID.
also i use QXDM and set 1933 nv_hdramp_hardware_id_i parameter to 0x10000 (for ESN)
but always MEID in trace.
so, if anybody can do more, than looking for SPC, or change ESN/MEID and has any information - please help me.
i think need path firmware, it's easy at intel cpu, but for arm/qcom i haven't this skill, so, before try loking other way.
thanks.

any update?
How do you do a layes3 trace ?
Does this help?
http://www.qualcomm.com/common/docu..._1xEV-DO_Session_Negotiation_Example_3-08.pdf
yes, i patch diamond phone firmware, and phone start working.
i write more detail at qmat support forum.
later i erase few memory in my diamond and wait jtag/jlink from ebay.
bump
Can you tell me how to do layer 3 trace? the pdf file in the previous messages does say the OUTPUT, but it doesn't say HOW the data was captured.
TIA
Data was captured via QXDM (Log view or, more usable, Filtered view), saved into .isf and parsed by the QCAT tool. Ask google for latest versions of this software.
BTW, you REALLY not need QCAT - the QXDM can give you same description of interesting packets (described in pdf (0x1077,0x1078,0x1079 etc.))

How to change the X1 mac address?

Hi,
yesterday i tried nearly the whole day to change my mac address on my x1. first i made a hardspl for x1. the new bootloader is working.
After that, i connected via mtty. I tried some commands like emapiTest, emapiWlanMac and some other what i found at xda-dev. I only go "command error" in mtty.
Then i flashed the latest rom (R2A) and tried it again with mtty. Same bad results.
There is a posting at xda-dev: NOTE: To use rbmc you need to
authenticate with proper password .... otherwise bootloader returns "Command error !!!" or "Command is Locked!". (if you're using Hard-SPL, this is unlocked, and any address can be read with 2.30.Olipro)
Do i make the same authenticate with the X1 HardSpl that i am able to work with any commands?
Best regards
strohrum
You can't change the MAC address of a network device. It's the unique hardware serial number of the network device.
My guess is that you're trying to get your Xperia to connect to a hotspot that only allows specific MAC addresses. In that case it makes more sense to find the wifi MAC address of your phone, go into the configuration page for your wifi router and enter the MAC address on the filter list.
You can get the phone's wifi MAC fairly easily. Turn on wifi, then:
Start > Settings > Connections > Wireless LAN > Advanced
... and the MAC is there for you.

Actually it is possible to "spoof" a network device.
I'm just not sure how to do this on a WM device.
i tried the registry method... didnt find any data for mac address
and i tried what jockyw wrote:
"You can run or flash the USPL (see sticky) and set a MAC address of your own choice.
Connect with MTTY and at the command prompt type:
emapiWlanMac 01 02 03 04 05 06 (the six two-digit numbers are the hexadecimal MAC byte values and should be replaced by anything you like)"
but i only get "command error" at any command.

Well, its not illegal in the "go to jail" sense... but more of a torts way. SE won't care that a relatively small group is tinkering with their own phones since it doesn't affect their income at all. Rather, if we filed a warranty claim, they can deny it on breach of terms.
The only time a modified MAC could be considered "illegal" is if you are pirating as a result of modifying it.
Why would you even want to change the mac-adress?

Please don't assume that something is illegal simply because it's "sometimes" associated with "hacking". Password recovery is not illegal, port scanning is not illegal, packet sniffing is not illegal. These are all used by most large companies on a regular basis. I'm a network engineer and I can assure you that it is legal to "spoof" your mac address. Even though there may be some unethical reasons for doing this, there are also unethical reasons for owning a kitchen knife. We change our mac addresses of many of the devices at work all the time for many, very legitimate reasons.
While there's no easy way to change the actual information stored in the CIS of a device, depending on the NIC driver, many drivers support dynamic mac addresses. Even Microsoft provides support for configurable mac addresses.
I dug around in the registry a bit and it doesn't seem like there is a default setting for this on Xperia (well, that I could find), but I'm sure there's a way to change the NDIS miniport drivers to simply call a new string value containing whatever you're trying to change your mac to.
Check out these MSDN articles that might help with a solution.

hi jhoffa,
thanks for the solution links. but i already need help:
At MSDN:
Finally, if the card information structure (CIS) of the PC Card contains a network address value, Ndis.dll creates a \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Miniport Instance\Parms\NetworkAddress key to store the network address.
My registry dosent show the path ...\NetworkAddress

is it possible that i am looking the wrong way?

Have you tried adding
Network Adress as a (i'm presuming) a Dword to \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETW12511\Parms\ ?
i added "NetworkAddress" as String and typed a 12 letter mac in it. didnt work. Dword same.

i found that at eggheadcafe.com:
Step 1 --> changes to driver
Steps [2-5] from C# application
1) In NDIS Intermediate driver (QueryMiniport function), I made the
following changes
a) When OID is CURRENT_MAC_ADDRESS , open registry , read a
registry name ChangeMAC,
b) if value of ChangeMAC is 1 then read registry value of "NewMAC"
and then convert it appropriately to MAC format
(remove extra unicode characters etc)
c) then do a NDISMoveMemory to current adapters MACaddr field.
d) close registry
2) Set value of ChangeMAC (DWord) to 1
3) Set value of NewMAC (string) to the new mac address
4) Invoke a NDIS_REBIND_ADAPTER (this internally will call
QueryMiniport ) and inturn execute step (1)
5) Set value of ChangeMAC (DWord) to 0
anybody an idea how does it work?

Using an unofficial program "stealed" from other phone or cook a personal ROM is not paragonable as change MAC Address.
MAC Address changes are the same of IMEI's ones: if you want to create-problems to a WiFi network (for example) with your modified MAC Address, you are not more identificable...so this is illegal.
To prevent the possibility of this type of "problems", all changes acts to alterate UNIQUE IDENTIFICATION of a device (IMEI or MAC Address numbers) are illegal, because it will cause a POSSIBLE multi-identity.

Problem with Caller ID and contact list.

Hi
I have problem with Topaz. When I save in contact - mobile No with country code (egz. +44) and try to call from other phone my Topaz don’t recognize number and is showing as a number not contact which was saved.
If I save in contact mobile No as 0xxxxxxxx without country code everything works ok it will show. What is wrong? Is there any setup or patch or anything what I can do with that? I’m travelling quite often so I store numbers with country code.
(Sorry for English)
I do not have this problem, but afaik there is an option on how many digits the number is recognized.
Set your caller ID to identify according to greater or lesser number of digits.
Otherwise, it may be that you have duplicate entries. This would also affect Caller ID.
where is the setting to change the number of digits - I appear to only have options for all contacts, no or address book ...........but no digit mask
I'm having the same issue.....
I've tried to manually add a number. With/without all/some prefixes.
Using + and 00.
I've checked to duplicates.
I've emptied by phonebook and SIM.
I got someone to call me. Saved their number from the call.
I've tried, say, +353868033333 and +3530868033333 and 0868033333 and 868033333 and replaced the + with a Zero.
I've set my Caller ID from 12 down to 2 and still nothing.
I do note something interesting.
I had ONE phone number work so far.
And I've yet to discover why.
I've placed a call with HTC and they are aware of the issue for only a week so far it seems but I think this has been an issue even from previous models.
Anyone got any others ideas? I'm going to try the hard reset and allowing it to import one number from the SIM card. And then I'll sync my full phonebook and see. But I'm holding off a few days to see if HTC will wake up and smell the coffee.
starfish_001!!!
starfish_001,
You need to get a Regedit tool, such as "PHM Regedit" and go to....
HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ ControlPanel \ Phone \
There is a key in there called "CallIDMatch".
You will have to change the range from about 12 down to 2 depending on your phone numbers etc. A soft reset is needed after each change to test.
BUT this has not solved my problem yet. It has for some it seems.

Excellent - I will give this a go
Ummm... there might be some trouble...
Let me try to help...
Normal number should consist of:
+ (international prefix)
xxx (country code)
xxx (area code/provider prefix)
xxx xxxx (phone number)
So let's use some reverse engineering:
- are ALL phone numbers in your country lenght 7 digits?
- is area code always 3 digits?
- how long is your country code?
For example, post #5:
"+353868033333 and +3530868033333 and 0868033333 and 868033333"
phone number: 8033333
area code: 086
country code: 353
Catch 22: you HAVE TO ommit 0 from area code, so it becomes 86 and correct form becomes first one, +353 86 8033333.
So recognition lenght should be: 7 + 2 + 3 = 12. Right? Not always.
Normally, math goes like this: (shortest possible phone number lenght in your country) + (shortest possible area code lenght without zero) + (country code)
In my country, it looks like this: 6 + 1 + 3 = 10
Example: +385 1 999999
But, there could be: +385 51 999999
and: +385 91 999999
If you go from lenght 2 up, you notice that till lenght 8 those 3 numbers are same for caller ID!
Now, try to play that with you country's number format... not to mention USA, where country code is 1!
Sorry if all of this was already obvious...
Bodisson,
Thanks for that expansion of the issue.
I'm going to give it another go.
Unfortunately the phone numbers here in Ireland can be in a range of:
+363 86 8033333 to +353 1 55555 so perhaps the Irish will be stuck with a HTC phone that will only recognise a handful of phone numbers.
I tried the CallerID with 12 and lower already. I might have to go right back to the basics on this one and start with one phone number.
I've read in other threads that people had to do a hard reset, have some numbers on their sim and then allow the wizard to copy those numbers across. You can then add the full set of numbers.
Thanks for your calculations. I'll give it one more shot before I do a hard reset. If only HTC would roll out WM6.5 so I can try that first. I'm a little put off by the manual upgrades.
Regards,
Geoff

(Q) Internet Sharing registry settings

Does any one know the registry settings to enable internet sharing?
There's a small collection of them, what isn't working about it on your phone? If it's something like the mobile operator permission check, then yeah, we can bypass that.

There are a number of threads about Internet Sharing and about registry tweaking. The requirement for tethering to be enabled on your account is checked by a mobile operator-specific DLL that is used by ICSSVC (the Internet Connection Sharing SerViCe). There's a registry value that tells the phone what DLL to load, or whether to load any. If you don't tell it to use any, it defaults to assuming you have access.
There are a number of ways to make registry changes on your phone. You can flash a custom CSC (not a full ROM, though if you look for "custom ROM" on the dev&hacking subforum, you'll find stuff about it), or you can edit the registry directly using a hijacked app chamber, or you can interop-unlock (itself requiring a registry edit, so you probably need to use the chamber hack unless you're on an old version of Samsung's firmware) and unblock RPC, then use the RPCComponent.

That is one (of several) methods for editing the registry. It can write more places than the other methods, but only works on Strings and Integers (DWORDs) and is only usable on Samsung phones. It requires that your process have ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES, which many OEM apps (and some first-party ones, like Skype) have, but which is not normally available to sideloaded apps.
"Unblock RPC" is the term we use for telling a Samsung service that it's in test mode by placing a file named "Non-production errors.txt" in the Documents folder of the phone. This will allow using RPCComponent anywhere in the registry, instead of just in a few specific places. Search for "unblock rpc" to learn more.
RPCComponent is a Samsung-provided native (C++/CX) DLL and WINMD for accessing various privileged functions by means of a high-privilege RPC (Remote Procedure Call) server. It is not publicly available but is bundled in many of Samsung's OEM apps and is available on this forum inside most .XAP files intended for use on Samsung phones (such as my own BootstrapSamsung tool; see the interop-unlock thread). As mentioned above, you need ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES for it to be useful.

Yeah i'm completely lost. The EnableAllSideloading XAP won't deploy for me (The manifest could not be loaded and may not be valid) so I can't even full unlock, and I have no clue how to go about using the MBN creator. So if you could hold my hand, I'd love it....
okay so I figured out MBN creator (kinda) but I still need to know the proper reg settings to disable the carrier authorization check.... i.e. the setting that points to the carrier specific DLL you mentioned...
EnableAllSideloading doesn't work on WP8.1 because they changed the security on the registry key where it operates. If you can't sideload it, that's because you're not interop-unlocked at all.
MBN Creator should, in theory, not require any particular customization unless your operator requires it; the *default* state of the Internet Sharing feature is "no restrictions, enabled by default". Several people have reported that IS started working after they flashed a custom CSC even though that CSC had nothing to do with IS, just because it removed the carrier-specific customizations that were present (and were blocking IS from working) before.
@tdecision10: If you are or were able to capability-unlock, then you can just sideload any registry editor tool you want and use that. Some of them are better than others, of course. A handful of apps, like WPTelnetD (https://github.com/FurballTheGreat/WPTelnetD/releases), ship with almost no capabilities so that they can be sideloaded on any phone, but you could unpack the XAP and edit the capability list before installing if you want to. A capability that gives access to the relevant registry key is ID_CAP_RUNTIME_CONFIG.

Okay, I put Pasquiindustry CustomPFD on my pc unzipped it added that capability in the WPAppManifest. xml file, rezipped it but now it won't deploy.
Did I think it was too simple?
EDIT:
For Spr int, I think I need to figure out how to do this:
TetheringNAIConnection
Optional. Specifies the CDMA TetheringNAI Connection Manager cellular connection that internet sharing will use as a public connection.
If a CDMA mobile operator requires using a Tethering NAI during internet sharing, they must configure a TetheringNAI connection and then specify the connection in this node.
Specified connections will be mapped, by policy, to the internet sharing service. All attempts to enumerate Connection Manager connections for the internet sharing service will return only the mapped connections.
The mapping policy will also include the connections specified in the DedicatedConnections as well.
(This is the error I get)
If the specified connections do not exist, internet sharing will not start because it will not have any cellular connections available to share
Anyone know how to add this to the APN settings?

well, i reverted to 8.0 and then updated to 8.1 via retail without thinking.... so i got the new firmware and took myself out of the game :crying:
edit: reverted back to 8.0 again and i have the old firmware again. i think using the mbn creator is key. with older versions of windows phone, the APN settings were all built into the rom. now they are provisioned OTA. everytime i change the CSC, the device fails the authorization check with sprints servers and the device doesn't provision itself. what we need is the provxml that contains all of sprints APN settings. I used to have this information in a kitchen for WM 6.5, but sadly, I deleted it a long time ago. i can currently do one thing or another, unlock internet sharing but have no data connection, or, have a data connection with internet sharing locked. i believe that i can make a custom CSC with all the necessary edits but I need to get my hands on the correct sprint provxml first. I've tried and tried to find an old kitchen for Sprint with the correct files in it, but because it's so old most of them are dead download links. I think even a stock RUU for the GOLD_C (Sprint's HTC Arrive) would do. If anyone has this or can track it down I think we'd be in business....
@GoodDayToDie thanks for all the input, it's really helpful. I think that most people have found success by simply changing their CSC because their phones are not CDMA. we've got all these extra restrictions that keep the technology from working automatically
also, i believe that if I could manage to somehow get my MSL unlock code, I could manually program the APN. problem is, CDMA Workshop can't read it, and the free version doesn't let you use the brute force option to find it. Sprint changed their policy in October to under no circumstances giving out the MSL code unless your contract is up. I'm going to continue to keep trying different tech support reps to see if I can get one of them to give it up.
@tdecision10 I'm getting close, but I REALLY need those WM 6.5/7 Sprint OEM packages..... if you know of anyone or come across it browsing it would be immensely helpful!
mtstmp, I have leadpoizon's old rom for HTC Arrive. Let me know if that will work and if so, how to get it to you.
