Akey can be changed manually, but note 3 it's not allowing you to change.
There are many posts on XDA & another million sites on how to.

A-Key is used by cdma technology, many of the carriers use it and many don't. Note 3 even with MSL known we are not able to write A-key. It writes but does not stick. On Sprint model.

DFS usually can write, but is not in our case. Nobody had been successful in writing it.

akey it's important,no akey identify no pass.so you can't call out. 3g just use your AN account and AN password. esn+meid+IMSI+akey,all pass you can call out,now a key can't be writed in to the phone.so,no way call out.:cyclops:

Lol oh ok. How much did they charge btw? I've been doing mine since the original evo. I wanted the Sprint variant because of the unlocked bootloader but I wanted to flash it myself that's why I got the one from Verizon.

I bought a Note 3 from ebay that was listed to be working fine but has got bad ESN. I am intending to use it in India on airtel GSM network with 3G (900/1800 & 2100). Can I unlock it and use it here in India without any problems. I am getting worried thinking I did a mistake. I got it for $330 so ordered in excitement.

I brought my phone to metro to flash and they said no it cannot be flash. And by the looks of things there is a way... I followed the steps correctly until I get to step 2 (dfc tool????) Then I'm lost
