Yep, I can confirm the same. The new RGERUC sims are not working with Tribute. So if someone is going for new sim get the precut Micro as all the mini sims being issued now seems to be RGERUC series (Went to two Reliance World stores one in Kochi and one in Bangalore) YMMV

Oh man!So,to some up for others, In mts, new "M1 OMH" series sims work while the old "M2" doesn`t. and in Reliance, old "RECRUC" works while the new "REGRUC" doesnt work. LOL.. why does CDMA Ops have to be so complicated.

This has been quoted many times in various threads regarding complexities of cdma. If you want the easy way then simply buy expensive gsm counterparts of these imported handsets, pay huge data prices, lower voice clarity and you d be fine.

The BYOD policy changed with Ting. So i dont think we can use the ting method anymore to get the SPC.

https://ting.com/blog/changes-to-the-byod-program-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly/

if you notice there are two different sections on ting

BYOD and ACTIVATE - both have different landing pages

as far as i know we need the second option so it doesnt matter if their BYOD policy changes.

I had used activate option. so may if you try you might get through.

^ I believe its the same. Activation has to happen anyways. And with the new policy Sprint will not allow you to activate a prepaid device which has not been active on Sprint for less than a year or so to be activated or another virtual operator.

can not connect to DFS. DIAG mode says Excess MSL failure. phone will power off.

Update: Phone back in action call/sms working after some R&D with CDMA workshop.

diag mode was always enabled so can connect to cdma workshop. spc failed so write it again and it accepted.

Write the backup of sprint nv items, reliance prl, read the NV mode and changed it to RUIM only and reset.

inserted the sim card and call/sms started. sprint activation back. now data setting pending. i am frightened to use DFS to change it to NV mode for data.

Happy! peace of mind

I know its Tribute thread but Info for all Volt owners

CM12 Lollipop beta has been released by a dev .

I have installed it on my Boost Volt . No problems in call, sms and data .Its in RUIM mode when i flashed and read from RUIM with no issues .

All works for me except REAR camera where people have mixes issue . Some have it working and some not . Only cosmetic issue it shows network as SPRINT instead of MTS . Also cant get VIPER4ANDOID to work . Shows driver installed and everything fine

ROM LINK http://androidforums.com/threads/cm12-unofficial-beta.905257/

Proof in pics

Now to check BSNL RUIM as both tribute and Volt were not working with BSNL RUIM

Lg tribute does not support rev.b its max data transfer rate is upto rev.A. if u make it rev.b through dfs,network shows rev.b but data works in 1x mode only..rev.B is only rumour in lg ribute.. I m from bangalore too.

your statement is incomplete. After activating rev b from dfs it shows relevant signals as you said but you don't get high speed.

Which could only mean that just enabling is not enough.

But you are saying it doesn't support because you couldn't get it to work.

Have you tried an MTS or Tata RUIM and checked whether it works with RevB? Someone mentioned earlier in this thread that RevB doesn't work with just Reliance.
