Updated Guide IOS 6 Sprint iPhone 4 flash to Page Plus with 3g and MMS

Well i cant edit my old post so i thought i would start a new one with a updated guide on flashing a sprint iphone 4 to page plus. Its pretty much the same process with updated steps for ios6.

Well i posted recently that i acquired a iphone flashed to page plus. Well i didnt know it was a sprint iphone and thought it was a verizon one so i restored it and was left with no data. So i went on a mission and after many hours finally figured out the right combination of settings to get it working. So i thought i would share it with everyone on here because i cant find anywhere else how to do this other than paying someone large amounts of money which i dont have. But any on how to flash it.



You must have a sprint iphone 4. Clean esn or bad esn is ok. This will not work on a verizon iphone with bad esn. Will not work on any iphone 4s. Page plus does not except bad verizon esn. You need to be jail-broken and on ios5 or ios6. This should work on any ios 6 version.

You can activate any clean esn verizon iphone 4 or 4s without flashing, just call and add esn to account then program phone. 

Onto Flashing:

Need to be jailbroken use red snow which is for mac and windows

Next add this repo into cydia

cydia.cdmaelite.com

Install ComCenter Patch and Install cricket carrier bundle from repo

Next you need to download the page plus bundle attached at the bottom of this post.

Then connect your iphone to your computer and use a file browser to open files installed on your iphone (I used diskaid).
Navigate too /system/Library/Carrier Bundles/Iphone/ and open the cricket bundle folder
Now erase everything inside and replace the contents with the page plus files
Reboot your phone and the new settings should be plugged into the phone.

Now we need to program the phone so open up the Dailer
dial ##626
then 000000
Then you input your MDN and MIN in the blanks

Then dial *228 and your phone will be programmed
now dial *22890 or *22800 or *22801 and select option 2 and that inputs the new prl.

Well you should be all set with everything working. Let me know how it goes (:

As we know the ios6 jailbreak is a tethered one, which means you have to boot up from a computer every time the device is shut off, well there is a way around this, if you dont mind losing the jailbreak

all it takes is a restore back to stock from itunes, the flash remains in the settings ( the only way to erase the flash is a network settings reset) to get data working you have to turn data roaming on 

You are not actually roaming it thinks its on sprint and roaming on verizon but you actually arnt.

Well i hope it works for everyone and let me know if you need any help below and success feedback as well (:

How to Update Iphone iphone 5s, iphone 5c, ipad air


  • 1
  • Plug your iPhone into your computer.
  • 2
    Open iTunes.
  • 3
    Click on the name of your iPhone.
  • 4
    Click "Check for Updates." If any firmware updates are available for your iPhone, an indication as such will appear on screen. If no updates are available, you will not be able to flash your iPhone at this time.
  • 5
    Click "Download and Install" on the "Updates Available" screen in iTunes. Do not attempt to use your iPhone during this process. Do not unplug your iPhone from your computer during this process. iTunes will download the necessary firmware updates to your computer's hard drive, at which point it will then flash your iPhone. Your existing iPhone firmware will be uninstalled and your new firmware will be put in its place. All of your personal files and data will then be synced back to the device once the flashing has taken place.

  • something interesting iphone 5s, iphone 5c, ipad air

    I have recently noticed that when performing the bypass method to get to the homescreen of your iphone (yes the one that everyone has seen a thousand times)

    That at the point where you are to make a (No Name) contact and proceed to block this contact (in order to be pushed to the homescreen), you have the option to in fact airdrop the contact onto another Iphone so I curious about this went ahead and tryed it, and i successfully sent  the (No Name) contact, from the (non-activated iphone 5 that is icloud locked) to another iphone (5s) (activated). Im not sure if this can be manipulated or not (as i am not very experienced).

    Image #1

    • Remove the two 3.6 mm Pentalobe screws next to the Lightning connector.

    2 Add NoteEditStep 2 

    • Press a suction cup onto the screen, just above the home button.
    • Be sure the cup is completely on the screen to get a tight seal.

    2 Add NoteEditStep 3 

    • Make sure the suction cup is firmly attached to the front panel assembly.
    • While holding the iPhone down with one hand, pull up on the suction cup to slightly separate the front panel assembly from the rear case.
    • Take your time and apply firm, constant force. The display assembly is a much tighter fit than most devices.
    • With a plastic opening tool, begin to gently pry the rear case down, away from the display assembly, while you pull up with the suction cup.
    • There are several clips attaching the front panel assembly to the rear case, so you may need to use a combination of the suction cup and plastic opening tool to free the front panel assembly.

    Add NoteEditStep 4 

    • Continue to pry up around the sides of the front panel assembly, detaching the clips along the left and right side.

    • Lift and rotate the front panel assembly up to about 90 degrees from the rear case.

      • Front-facing camera and sensor cable
      • Digitizer cable
      • LCD cable
        • When reassembling your phone, The LCD cable may pop off the connector. This can cause white lines, or nothing at all to appear when powering your phone back on. If that happens, simply reconnect the cable and power cycle your phone. The best way to power cycle your phone is to disconnect and reconnect the battery.
