Vinod Nayak 443 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 (edited) 99% of people know how to change mode from NV to RUIM using DFS, This is for the rest 1% who don't know. Download DFS and install on PC. Phone Drivers I'm using a LG G2 LS980 Sprint CDMA model, so illustrating for the said model Know your SPL/MSL code: Dial ##443336772# Shows MSL code near the bottom of the screen, write it or memorize it. Put the phone into DIAG mode: Dial ##3424#, Enter SPC/MSL code and press ok. Select enable and press ok. Your phone is in DIAG mode. Enable Debug in Developer Options of the phone. If you do not have Developer Options under settings simple go to Settings/About Phone/Software Information under this tap on Build Number 10 times continuously and it will enable the Developer Options in your phone. Put the phone in Charge only Now that your phone is connected, Run DFS on PC & Select Ports marked in red. Select LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port (COM16) -> this can be any number, its 16 in my case. Once the above port is selected it should it indicate like shown in pic below marked in red. Double click on LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port (COM16) marked in yellow. If properly connected, it should look like its shown in red in the pic below. Enter your SPC/MSL in the SPC field marked in yellow and then press the SPC button. It should say Device Unlocked in the log window of DFS shown below marked in orange. Now select programming marked in blue and then select read in config marked in red. Select the Ruim Config marked in yellow, change it from NV_ONLY to RUIM_ONLY. Once the mode is changed from NV_ONLY to RUIM_ONLY as shown below marked in red, select write marked in yellow & finally select Reset at top right corner of DFS marked in pink. Your phone should reboot and if your phone is capable of taking a RUIM SIM, all features like voice sms and data should work at this time. I try to make my tutorials as noob friendly as possible, if you still have doubts or confused, don't hesitate to ask.

Vinod Nayak 443 Report post Posted February 21, 2014 If you installed all drivers properly put the phone into diag mode using ##3424# then see under device manager see the port number under com ports, use cdma ws 2.7 free version or a cracked version run it, connect to the respective port, select security tab. in security tab in look for password tab, enter the 16 digit password 01F2030F5F678FF9 click send, you should get a popup "your phone is now unlocked", after this in the same tab look for SPC section, click read, that should give you your 6 digit SPC/MSL code.

If you have flashed NV then RUIM data will not work unless you have a back up of EFS which was taken before flashing NV.

::: VA ::: 531 Report post Posted February 24, 2014 if this is applicable in a generic manner then we dont have to register meid of most phones with global option. i guess i can simply buy something from anywhere and use this tutorial to make life easy. quite sometime back. a certain member had too posted a tutorial for handsets with root access to enable ruim mode. @VN bhai you have posted above that if nv is already flashed then this wont work. so just suppose if i buy something of sprint/verizon even those pieces would be flashed already to their original carrier??? whether new or used. or you mean specifically that it should not be flashed to custom network like our rcdma. please clarify this bit here.

Vinod Nayak 443 Report post Posted February 24, 2014 There should be a way. if anyone has a backup of stock NV items, or Brand new phone, all you gotta do is take a NV backup using CDMA WS, then use that NV to flash a already flashed phone, RUIM data might just be possible to achieve this way.

::: VA ::: 531 Report post Posted February 24, 2014 for instance droid dna is a lovely phone, powerful and capable global phone. but cdma is nv only so far, so can your tutorial possibly change it to ruim capable too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
