sameerbk 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2011 Hi, I have a HTC EVO 4G, the MEID has been registered on Reliance, and the phone activated thru *228. I can dial out, receive calls, but every call gets disconnected after 2 secs or so. As I understand the issue can be fixed by adding the A-key. I got the A-key, but I don't know how I should key it in to the phone. ##2539# is not working on the phone. I don't see a a-key option in any of the other menus. Is there some other way? The phone is not rooted yet, is this required to add the a-key? I have QPST installed, and can get CDMA workshop if needed. Thanks, Sameer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
@mitJ@in 256 Report post Posted October 6, 2011 Dial ##3424# and instantly connect USB Cable to PC, and Download the HTC Diag Drivers and locate them. And in CDMA Workshop, Insert Akey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KapilAgrawal 340 Report post Posted October 6, 2011 ^^^ @Amit - A-Key inserted in HEX format. Clicked Write (Default - NV Method). Success Message But when I try to read, It shows nothing. "Akey has not been Set.". Is it Okay ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sameerbk 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2011 Voice and SMS all working now. Q: Will all the programming have to be done again if I get OTA update for the android OS? I got a few OTA thru wifi for the HTC EVO 4G. If I get updates again will it wipe out the programming for Reliance and replace with the one for Sprint?

SumitVerma 187 Report post Posted October 7, 2011 It should rather give you an error "Failed, Cannot Read A-key" when trying to read it out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KapilAgrawal 340 Report post Posted October 7, 2011 Atleast on HTC Phones Factory Reset / Erase User Data don't remove the Operator settings. But for Motorola once you update & reset, All settings are gone. That's why I say, Keep your MIN noted to a safe place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sameerbk 0 Report post Posted October 8, 2011 The MIN number on the HTC EVO 4G is a phone number like - 1877 xxx xxx. Is this the Sprint Helpline number? Would this be unique? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
