1) blank and the ESN number should be used or 2) alltel and youll know it will work

Other things to note
A-KEY
Authentication Key =

Home SID/Home NID
Home SID/NID #1 = (Make Sure this is what you had before the upgrade, mine gets deleted every customization i do!) so for me its 1236/65535 (first is area specific, second is the same for all smartphones i think)

M.IP Default Profile
NAI = number@alltel.net
MN HA SPI Value = 101
MN AAA SPI Value = 3E8

Thanks for this.

How about the HA Shared Secret and the AAA Shared Secret. Should they be blank? Mine has a bunch of jumbled characters/letters/numbers.

glad to see someone else has this problem. Question: somehow the code i type to get into PPST changed. It use to be 000000 but now its some code off my ESN numbr. I saw someone mentioned changing the MSI back to 000000, how?

Finding and Changing Your SPC (MSL)!

1. Download the MSL Generator from the FTP.

2. Save the GetSPC.exe and PPST_KeyGen.dll files to your MicroSD card.



3. Now you need your HEX ESN. You have a couple options with this.

a) Take out your battery, right down the Decimal ESN and convert it to HEX.

b) Go into your Start>Setting>Device Settings and right down the Decimal ESN and convert it to HEX. (thanks to clockcycle)

c) Open up the CDMA Workshop, Choose Com4, Connect, Read, and your ESN should be on the Left. if it says : : failed : : , goto the Security tab, and under ESN click on Read. This is your HEX ESN. (should have some letters in it as well as numbers)

4. Run the GetSPC.exe file on your phone (from your memory card) and then enter your HEX ESN in the input box.

5. Click Go.

6. Enjoy your SPC!

**If you only wanted to get your SPC, you can stop here. If you want to get into the Service Programming files, or change your SPC, keep going.

7. Install QPST if you haven't already.

8. Run the Service Programming program under the QPST start menu.

9. Double click on the little globe at the bottom right of your screen.

10. Click on Add New Port, and add COM4 - USB/QC DIAGNOSTIC.

11. Close the QPST Configuration window, and go back to the QPST Service Programming window.

12. Click on your phone, which should now be there, and then click OK.

13. Click on Read From Phone and then enter your SPC and click OK.

14. You should now see your SPC in its box, all you have to do is change it to a convenient six (6) digit code of your choice, then click on Write to Phone!

15. Done!

thanks, just found it on another forum through google. so nice to have alltel folks to chat with. you forgot i think these steps:

9 1/2. From the Dialpad, dial ##3424#(##diag#)
9 3/4. Connect device to computer via USB(this will install drivers)

anyone have success downgrading their PRI otherwise?

[zeurx]

dose anyone know what causes the roaming, i've checked my PRL and home SID and are all the same

edit: holy crap, i set it to home only and htc home displays Alltel!!! but could it be a reg edit with the service type?

hmmmm prl is 30031, SID is your area's correct number... what about the NAM name under EPST? I don't believe it really does anything other than maybe display in HTC home.

[zeurx]

PRL is 40036 (I get more EvDO in Iowa with this one than the 300xx ones)
Home SID is 1236 (I know cuz i got in a fight with alltel customer service about this)
NAM Name is NAM1 (The rest of the NAM settings look right)

Overall i dont think it messed with any of my programming when i updated

Oh and by the way, working EvDO with

HA Shared Secret:w5J6phhEh3qHEMMS
AAA Shared Secret:alltel
