Sprint Mogul flashed for Alltel questions - Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development

I flashed a Mogul with the Radio 3.42.50 and the latest Titan reloaded M2d ROM with the Alltel carrier cab. I got the MDN, MSID and HOME SID and punched those in using ##778. I can make calls and such but when I try to use *228 it says that I need to authenticate the phone and when I try it won't. It still says Digital Roaming on the main screen. Is there something that I forgot to punch in? I also used QPST to add the aGPS settings.
Any ideas?

So no one out there might have an idea what I missed in the PST settings.
Or is this a "convince Alltel to get the right settings in the phone" game?

Sprint Mogul with Custel 1.1 wont connect to Powervision?

i just updated my old sprint rom wit the custel 1.1 and my powervision isn't working. keeps dialing to #777 and gives me an unknown error. i'm on sprint but it keep saying alltel wireless even though i keep deleting it.
does anybody know how to fix this. I checked the mdn and msid and they were correct for my phone.
my radio version is 1.32
It's okay that it says Alltel, cause it will dial #777 on Sprint's network.
The fix for this issue, for me, was entering my PowerVision username and password in the connection settings.

Mogul to alltel problem

Hi all i need help on Mogul. Originally its on Sprint then read a lot of upgrading process and finally did it. I did the RUU for alltel and everything works fine. The only thing is that i cant take out the roaming indicator. At first i was thinking its probably because of the PRL, but NO i got the latest PRL for alltel. Checked out the EPST settings and checked everything. I found out under Modem settings--Preffered Serving system-- Values are"Automatic, Roming only, Sprint Only." How do you take Sprint Only out? How can i make it fully work for Alltel? thanks.
I would try reflashing the Radio which would completely wipe out your settings then reprogram it for Alltel. I would think IOTA or something pre-filled in those settings.
Remember to *228, option 3 then dial *228 again and then option 2.

thanks for the replies. xweaponx do you also have a value in your SCm of 42? What ROM should i use to fully erase everything on it?
One more thing i read somewhere that alltel just uses 800Mhz in some states. Due to this whenever i change my my phone settings to home only i loose my signal eventhough i have the correct system id. I;m doing this because i really wanted to take out the roaming indicator. Am i doing something wrong?

Alltel HTC PPC 6800 ROM **where are the experts??**

I have Alltel and have been trying NexVision's ROM, the DCD and and and, pretty much everything I could find.
Running the 3.27.00 Radio ROM and tried a lot of ROMS of the WM 6.1 ones
I cant get any of them working right!!
I dont seem to get any success after flashing connecting to the Internet and also constantly have the roaming indicator on (that triangle on the top).
Also it changed my MSC/SPC or whatever you call it from 000000 to something else which makes it impossible for me to use the *228 to update roaming and PRL via their automated telephone thing.
Now my question is,
which is the best working ROM for the Titan on alltel? Especially how do I get the thing to connect to the Internet again???
how do I get the Titan connected to QPST in order for me to change the SPC back to 000000?????
I appreciate any help, this forum is so helpful and such great work you guys!!!!!
keep it up!!!!

It sounds like you let the Sprint customizations run. Sound about right?
Here's what I had to do after the Sprint customizations locked me out of the PST:
Geckotek said:
I flashed back to the stock VZW ROM (third time I think), I made sure all of my provisioning issues with Verizon were worked out (finally had the tech "kick the switch").
1) Then I proceeded to load the 2.4 bootloader,
2) then the 3.16 Unauthorized Sprint ROM w/ radio,
3) then finally installed a cooked DCD 2.3.2 ROM.
Things to note:
1) I never let the Sprint ROM boot up
2) I had no signal so ran *22802 then hit End as soon as it connected
3) Still no signal after reboot
4) No A key, MSID, or MDN issues, but I did re-enter the MSID and MDN as discussed in other threads
5) After re-entering MSID and MDN then after reboot I had signal
6) never had to run *228 to OTA program (in the past programming with *228 has reversed the effect of re-entering the MSID and MDN)
In general, I feel that the OTA from VZW sends down some programming that conflicts with the 3.27 radio...but I have nothing to prove that.
GPS is running great (I just loaded the AstroGPSLauncher)
Not sure about Rev A. It does seem snappy. What's a good site to test from the phone?
I'm happy and not re-flashing until a solid radio for Verizon arrives.

that all worked for you on Verozon, but I got alltel!!!
i still want to know how to change my MSC SPC, the Master Code back to 000000
and also what would you recommend is the best ROM that works for ALLTEL and also has the internet working.
I did all the MSID and MSN entering by hand.
I do get service for text messaging and Phone service as well.
i cannot get access to the internet, and also am constantly roaming. thats my issues
I have Alltel and DCD's 1.7.x ROMS are GREAT! No GPS but I don't need it.
you have a link to the ROMs??

I have Alltel PPC6800 and I am running Radio 3.27 and DCD2.3.2 just fine. Download the kitchen and run it. Alfter everything is installed then dial the *228 and pick option 3 for new phone. That will update all the settings you need.
Here is all the stuff you need. Pick which alltel rom you want. I know they all work good, some have more features.

jamesfelarca:To change the PRL you can put ##775 in the dial pad and send. Then enter the 000000 for the unlock code and select update PRL ->Menu->Edit and select the current PRL (probably a good idea to have this on your memory card) http://www.corolada.com/prl/ The one you want is 30031. Also you may want to do the ##778 unlock code 000000 and then check the NAM settings MDN and MSID should be your 10 digit number.

A) What my instructions help with is flashing a Sprint ROM to a non-Sprint phone
B) My instructions show you the only way I've ever seen how to remove the MSL from the phone.
So if you want your phone to work correctly, I suggest you give it a try. Your mistake was letting the Sprint customizations run....as far as I know, that is not easily reversible.

Based on my experience, reflashing the ROM doesn't remove the MSL lock applied by the Sprint ROM. That's why I reverted to the stock bootloader and ROM/Radio.

Glad it works for you. I had problems with the radio. I was only receiving about 2/3 of sent SMS and OfficeSync did not update properly.
Here is a link to DCD's 1.7.0 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=372853
I used the kitchen and it works very well for me.
i have alltel and update my ppc6800 fine all i had to do to remove the indicator icon was to do *228 option 3 wich is activate.

I'm not sure how to change the MCL back to 000000 but if you haven't already you should be able to use GetSPC to obtain the code for your device. Once you're in EPST check your Home SID to make sure this is correct. If not there's a good chance you'll be roaming all the time. Also make sure you have the newest PRL (*228 Option 2)
For your internet connection, check EPST Security and M.IP Default Profile and make sure your NAI and UserIDs are set to your phone number @alltel.net and your AAA shared secret and PPP Password should be "alltel" without the ". Your HDR AN AUTH Password should be your ESN (Hex).
I recommend dcd 2.32 also. It's what I'm using and it's working great.
Sounds like everyone else covered the how to's... but before you try anything else you might want to wait for DCD's new kitchen which will work with the official radio released for Sprint today.
Roaming Order
Does anyone know if there is a way to change the order of carriers my phone tries to roam to?
I have Alltel and apparently Sprint is at the top of there list. I live in an area where Sprint service sucks and there is no EVDO, but the Sprint tower is just close enough to be seen so I never get onto the Verizon Towers. I would like to set my Roaming order to be Verizon first then Sprint etc...
Thanks,
mr.ellsworth

I'm stuck in boot screen (updating ROM)

I've since solved my boot screen issue. I've installed :
dcd 3.2.5
Titan_Radio_ROM_3.42.30
dcd USCC Carrier 20080801
I have no data connection, I deleted it says my username and password are incorrect. I've tried every combination of my 10digit number and uss.net that I can think of. I've also reinstalled the uscc carrier cab, did the *228 and a soft reset. I can connect for 2 kilobyts then after that I can't connect. I'm not finding much on these forums to help me out. Does anyone have any ideas?
additional info
Sorry, the phone is a USCC 6800
hey just to let you know I have the 6900 and I dial #777 not sure if u wanna try that
I've had the same problem everytime I change ROMS. I have Verizon and found after I've "activated" the phone using the *228 then option 1, I then do *228 and option 2 (update my roaming capabilitys). That has always enabled my data connection.

If that doesnt work and you have an old cell phone around you can swap the ESN's on VZW's web site under customer service. When you do this you reset all the security information for the handset. I find this way to be the quickest method that has never failed. I use it so much I have the other ESN almost memorized!~

Run EPST and make sure that your PPP user name and password in there are correct.
If you didn't back up your phone's programming with QPST before and after flashing there is a chance that your EPST information is corrupt which would cause data to not work.
You will need your SPC/MSL in order to access EPST. You can try 000000 if nothing else works, and if it is 000000, you will need to set it back to the correct SPC/MSL otherwise *228 won't properly update your phone. Also USCC doesn't offer an option 1 or 2 after dialing *228, they don't have an OTA reprogramming of their phone.
If those changes don't work, you can try posting your entire EPST on here (removing any personal info, i.e. phone #, ESN, etc) and one of us USCC folks can compare it to ours and let you know what other areas look corrupt.
This is the one downside to USCC customers, we have to take extra steps while programming our phones to get them up and running, luckily it's a one time thing, once the phone is flashed the first time, these settings stick.

Mogul 6800 via Sprint Keypad access code

Hey,
I'm not sure why this happen but for some reason, I can not access the "pst" thing by pressing "##778#" or "##778". I was able to do it before, but ever since I switch to a new Mogul it wont let me. I also tried "##775#" to edit the PRL, but it still wont let me. I saw the sprint rep did some other numbers, but I forgot what they used. I need to get on to check if my PRL is up to date and see if the "REV A" is activated; and plus I just want to get on it because I'm curious now. Does anyone knows what other codes I can used? Thanks in advance.
ps. I'm using DCD 3.2.6 Radio 3.42.50
dunno.
3.2.6/3.42.50 myself and ##778# brings up EPST just fine.
i came on to ask the same question. i cant seem to get any codes to work. using DCD 3.2.5 on sprint
Some dialers don't allow ##codes. Try a different dialer, either reflash from the kitchen and select a different dialer, or unselect both dialers and use the default. I can't remember which dialer it was that didn't work, but I'm 99% sure one of them didn't work.
