raysmanindi 4 Report post Posted November 19, 2012 I have the Latest New Model Of Verizon S-3, i followed Javed Steps and it worked , I have been using it for 3 days without any problem.I feel the settings are holding because we are hard-writing the APN through EF explorer and restoring the backup. Hope someone solved the CDMA data to atleast 1X or 3G through a CDMA SIM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

APN name anything to whichever service provider you are hooked on to. 2. Numeric should be MCC+MNC ,Assuming it for Airtel karnataka : MCC is 404 and MNC is 045 so numeric becomes 404045. i have tried it and the signal strength for data is very good. 3. Again as you have put MNC for Airtel as 066, it is right in your place , but for other states it should be according to their states MNC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks brother , i have no idea about MCC & MNC for other place. i gave u BSNL as example. For CDMA user :: TATA Docomo & MTS tested data working on SIM mode, no need to program for both.

If it still doesnt then it must be coz of a different radio firmware in ur handset. try this meanwhile i will check on radio part and get back to u Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
