    Hi,

    I am using an iPhone 4 CDMA version, and i am struggling with the problems which i believe so many are facing, SMS and Data. After patching the commcenter, we can easily edit the carrier settings so that our phone starts working normally. But i have no knowledge of the Reliance specific CDMA settings required to make it work. People have even successfully enabled Data on their phones. If someone can please help in sharing the network settings which needs to be feeded to the device to make it work properly on Reliance network!

    I used iFile to have a look at the carrier.plist and carrier.pri files and i found so many options which if we know the correct value for it, maybe we will be able to make SMS (my Priority) and Data (if we are lucky) work smoothly. I've attached few snapshots of those options which i have no knowledge of, but i am sure the experts over here will be able to share more details as to why we are not able to edit all these settings.

    parin bhai, the problem is the no. which we had temporarily activated on this iPhone is terminated by now and the problem is we cannot reactivate the same no. I need someone who can release this iPhone from this number so that we can transfer another one on it. I am unable to dial *228 as it gets stuck after "welcome to reliance". If you can help, please let me know!

    Parin, did you try editing the OutgoingSMSPrefix property in carrier.plist? What values did you provide? There are 2 properties we need to set under this, one is for local sms prefix which by default contains value as +1 and +11 for international SMS. I will request you to set the local prefix to an empty string and the international prefix to +91.

    Also after replacing the Verizon prl file with a Reliance prl file, there is an option in the carrier.plist called as push prl something which needs to be set to true. Also please try this and let us know if sending SMS suceeds.

    CommCenterpatch for iPhone 4 CDMA version is now available from the following cydia repository:

    http://v.backspace.jp/repo/

    Since i don't have an active no. on my iPhone 4 CDMA i cannot try the option i suggested in one of the comments on Page 1. I will request people who have a working phone to test, please install the commcenter patch and then try editing the OutgoingSMSPrefix property.

    Let's hope atleast day to day messaging between our friends and collegues starts working. For messages from Bank and others which we are unable to receive on our phones, we will need to accept what Hetal posted in one of the message above.

    I tried to restore old carrier bundles on ios 5 but then phone when into safe mode with no recovery ... had to re install firmware.

    Can you please share the old carrier bundle files so that even i can try it once. I am continuously working towards finding a solution to this problem and yes what Mufaddal mentioned in one of the above post is correct, it's the problem with all the flashed iPhones. In the US, the problem is worse. For people who flashed iPhones to use it on Cricket or Metro, SMS(send and receive) is not working at all. Atleast on Reliance network, we are able to receive SMS(partially), but not send it.

    After going through with the problems of Metro and Cricket users, this is what i have come to the conclusion:

    1) The problem with US CDMA network is the character encoding (i.e. the format in which SMS is sent/received) over the network. What happens is that the iPhone is expecting the SMS in a particular format but the carrier (network) is following a different encoding and because of this the handshake between the provider and the iPhone fails, resulting in failure of the SMS.

    2) I am working on this option:

    The carrier.plist contains all the settings required to make the phone work. By default this file contains all Verizon related settings. I found one very interesting setting in this file called as OutgoingSMSPrefix. The default value of this property is +11 for international and +1 for local. I think for those users who are unable to send a message, maybe by changing this property, we might be able to solve the problem. I tried changing this value to +91, but the problem is as soon as you edit this carrier.plist file, the signature of this file changes and then the iPhone simply discards all the settings done. The solution to this problem is a CommCenter patch. For GSM phones, people who need to enable tethering and other options, they patch the commcenter so that it allows edited carrier.plist files. Unfortunately no one has yet developed a CommCenter patch for CDMA iPhones.

    I think if we can patch the CommCenter so that it allows edited carrier.plist, then i think we might be able to solve this problem.

    Thanks a lot Hetal. I am happy that you replied to my post. Really sorry if my post made you angry. Hope i will receive your help!

    Also what happened is the Reliance store we went to, that guy out there, helped us in transferring the no, but he didn't gave us any HCC or GSK. He just told us to fill up a form along with address proof and other details, and in 5 mins approx, the old phone automatically got deactivated and the no. got transferred to the iPhone.

    The reply from Hetal was a bit arrogant one. I am not forcing anyone to reply, just asking for help from people who might know the solution since i am facing an SMS sending problem and i don't know what's the reason behind it. The whole idea of forums is to help each other, isn't it?

    Thanks anyways people who helped me! I really appreciate your time in replying to my posts. I really value that a lot! I have got lot's of information from this thread.

    I just came to know that dialing *228 is like OTA provisioning, CDMA providers transfer .prl files over the air. Maybe that will solve my problem, that's why i was looking for help as to how can i proceed further.

    The web world we went to, he did the transfer of no. directly, he didn't tell us to buy and HCC card. So the problem is since my no. is already transferred and i don't have an HCC card, i cannot proceed.

    Hi,

    I managed to get the MEID registered of an iPhone 4 CDMA Verizon model and transferred a Reliance no. to the handset, but the problem is SMS is not working. I am unable to send SMS.

    If i try dialing *228, it asks for an RSN no. which i don't have. I also tried setting the SMSC no. manually but Reliance says there is no SMS center no. for CDMA handsets, so they are not ready to provide any such detail.

    Please help, if someone can guide as to how to get the RSN for my phone.
