3G on M835

[Apocalypz]

It might be, I'm running Stock at the moment due to WiFi Issues with CM7

Yep, it was becasuse of CM7 I would enter the code and nothing would happen. So anyway, I set it to Manufacturer mode and installed those USB drivers from their site, still can't get the ports to be recognized in neither Win7 or WinXP. I keep getting 4 Android Adapter under "Other devices" in Device Manager in both XP and WIn7. I try manually updated the driver and pointing them to the M835 USB driver folder that you gave me first and won't recognize it. Also tried pointing it to ADB driver folder that's on the phone itself and won't take that either. I'm stumped.

Yep put it in manufacture mode before I started but no luck

Put the phone in manufacture mode, usb debugging, and unmounted the sdcard. I tried installing the driver on the phone, the one cybertail posted, the modemdriver, handheld android device driver from the huawei site, everything. All that shows up on win7 and winxp is the modem driver, not the com port. And I have 4 android adapters on there that can't be recognized. I tried manually pointing them to each driver but none work...

Strange, for when you have the phone plugged in, can to go to the device manager, right-click one of the Unknown Devices from the phone, select Properties, go to Details and Ctrl+C the Hardware ID?

This is a screenshot of my device manager with the android-related devices expanded. The "unkown" devices with no drivers have their hardware ids (each has two) pasted next to them.

Another thing; the Android Modem that's on there is port COM5, found that out by looking through the properties on it. Whenever I connect with CDMA Workshop, it says connected, but the phone stops saying "USB connected" and "USB debugging connected." Then I click "Read" and it says phone does not answer.

Then I can't connect my phone to my pc anymore unless I restart my computer. The same thing happens if I use QPST, and using LGNPST just doesn't work.

EDIT: Has anyone actually had success is manually flashing the new .prl file yet?

I updated in my test m385 with mate35 rom.

I can't check signal on UT as it isn't connected but 3022 is on it.
I actually downgraded to 3019 first, via *228.

When I used qpst no code was needed, I opened com ports and clicked "add port" until my phone showed up.

Also, putting 3022 on before flashing a rom it stays at 3022.

I actually use CDMA Workshop for PRL Manipulation and I haven't tested Mate35 because I'm patiently waiting for a Wi-Fi fix for any M835 Mod

Hey, guys. I'm trying to get the drivers installed that CyberTails linked a while back (M835ModemDriver.zip). But I have a problem. After installing, on the last screen, I get:

The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)

Driver is not intended for this platform.

I'm running Win7HP 64. I'm wondering if it's that these drivers are 32 and my system is 64.

Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: Never mind, I got it. Now to flash this phone to Cricket!

hey guys i connected my m835 with debugging and manufacture mode on. i have a couple of questions. First: how do you install the m835modemdrivers.zip? theres 4 files in there so do you leave it as a zip or extract it? second when i installed some kind of drivers for adb i went to device management and theres no ports section whatsoever... theres no ports only other devices with like 4 android adapters when the phone is in, but no "Ports" tree after that... my internet's been slow lately and i would really like to do this upgrade... please help?

Froyoman v3 worked perfectly for me. It's not gingerbread though.. but it's fast.

What exactly did you do? I also have Win7 64 and got the same error...

 

[paultizzle]

does anybody think there might be 3G in L.A. or is that to ghetto???

 

[deadlyassasin8]

so how do i use the m835 modem driver? i have everything else needed to flash my phone to 3g but i am stumped as what to do next

 

[CyberTails]

Oh, for any other Philly Metro Users, I asked my local Metro (on Sept. 30th) and they said that 3G will be up in a couple of months

 

[Deleted User]

Thank you this was very helpful. I found prl 3023 and installed on phone and 3G baby. The prl 3022 worked to, but it was in and out of 3G.

attached prl 3023. Hope it works in your area.

Sorry it took so long for me to reply. Been busy with work and a way to flash my M835 to Cricket since I no longer live in a MetroPCS service area.

If CyberTails drivers don't work (they didn't for me), the ones I have might. These are for Windows 7 64-bit. I tried them on an XP Pro 32-bit system at work and it was obviously a no-go.

After diligent searching on teh Interwebz with many, many dead ends, a site called DriverMax claimed to have the drivers. They did require that I download their program to obtain the drivers. Anywho, I installed the program, then the drivers, and it worked. I'm able to use CMDA Workshop and QPST successfully.

I would add that you manually delete any other drivers or use something like CCLeaner to remove any previously installed drivers you tried from this thread, then install.

Hope this helps!
