No problem. Lay off the double posts and we'll call it even..... ;-)

Back on topic: Reminder--some Verizon pre-paid phones have been reported NOT to have the standard six-zero SPC, so you will have to find that before flashing.

Carry on.....
 
I've found out that I have many Samsung PST Lite programs, but none of them have the dll file to do the flash properly. I've tried to download the dll file for the U540 and only came up with the bin file. Can anyone point me in the right direction for the correct dll file to do the full flash on the U410?
 
Yeah just get the phone in DM mode, then close out UniCDMA and open SPST Lite. If that doesn't work, I'll send you the same dll I have.
 
Hey, I cracked it, only took me about an hour and I hit a few snags that I'll explain how to get around in this tutorial.

Excuse me if this tutorial seems inadequate as it is my first one.

What you will need:
QPST
Samsung PST
Samsung PST Lite
Samsung U540dll
Samsung A950 USB Modem Driver
Cricket prl, unless you use the OTA method.

Once you have found all that, you'll be ready.

First, write the Cricket prl to the phone with QPST. If the phone isn't connecting right, turn it off and back on (it switches modes and ports when you do this). Also change the phone to Simple Ip. At he same time go to the PPP Config tab, then UN and AI tabs and change the password to cricket. You can change the usernames too, but you will be messing with that file in Samsung PST anyways.
Write to Phone.

Open Samsung PST Lite and choose the U540 dll
Go to settings and read the feature and IS-95/1x/1xEV-DO DATA settings from the phone.
Once it's done (takes a while) uncheck the feature settings and save as an MMC file. Then uncheck IS-95 and check the feature settings. Go to the feature settings and change the last option (Hidden Menu) to Enabled.
Click Write to phone.


Open Samsung PST
Go to the U540, then Settings, then open then check the IS-95/1x/1xEV-DO DATA settings. Open the file you just saved. Make the appropriate changes as follows:
MIP, SIP, and AN NAI: [email protected]
Save the MMC file again.

Back to Samsung PST Lite
Open the MMC file and write it to the phone.

Now on the phone, go to Menu, Settings, press #, enter the user code (last 4 of your phone nuraber) and edit the settings according to the U740 thread
http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1247954 post 2, except the only thing you need to change in the ip settings is:
PROXY IP USED= no
And change the hompepage in Common settings to something that will work like the cricket homepage or google.

You should be rockin in on the internet now!
MMS! Outgoing doesn't work, but incoming works right off the bat. Couldn't figure anything out on outgoing yet... maybe some help there.

Also going to try this on the Samsung U520

Let me know what you think
 
Yeahh you use that on most prepaid verizon samsung phones, utstarcoms n few pantechs


it usuallly shows like this on the right hanRABide after you open the nvm002 or nvm security depending on the phone model

----639
000000
785----
Hum LOL i dont how to explain it better but the 639785 is the spc
 
So, I found the spc for my phone. Wrote the prl also. Worked just fine. Now I go onto the step of using samsung lite pst, it reaRAB the general phone settings, but when I go into SETTINGS and try and read those, it gives me an error saying "error in requesting msl colde" Do you know what that means?



Sorry about the duplicate post. Wont happen again
 
yo-

Go to 'Settings & Tools'

Press # key

Put '000000' and press OK

Select '3. MTP setting'

Choose 'MSM'
MTP: Option for Music sync with PC
MSM: Option for PST tool and Diagnostic tool connection.

'nough said.
 
I have called cricket, had them activate on their end, performed all the steps in the tutorial and my phone will not OTA. Any ideas what is wrong? Can someone help me manually program my phone?


I figured it out. My phone works. Now if i can just figure out how to get mms to work
 
hey steve so whats the difference between your pc are they different operating system or anything. and what version samsung pst lite are you using and is there any of these programs in sprint version case this phone i have is sprint.
 
So, when it asked for the msl code, I entered my spc and it acted liked it worked, but no info actually showed up on the screen. Please help? lol I know I am doing something wrong.
