I don't know if this works. But you can try. Set the device to RUIM.pref.
The SIM should be new micro by Reliance. Old big ones don't work.
MOST IMPORTANT:
Flash the number into a MEID, Get the EVDO going. Once the number is working with calls & data on MEID, Get it transfered to the new micro SIM. Insert in Sprint Note 3, boot the phone. The phone SHOULD detect the new yet to activate SIM. Dial *228, it will ask you to choose.language, DO NOT DO ANYTHING, let the phone program itself.
Once the procedure is done, switch off the phone, give it a minute, boot it back. Give it a good ten mins, 1x should start working. Call WW and request for EVDO transfer to SIM.
Just a theory, not sure if it works as I have not tried this. I'm on MJ4. JB

Thanks a lot.
To summarize it, existing number should be transferred to new SIM and that SIM has to be activated in the Note itself rather than any handet. If the sim is pre activated, it wont work on Note, right?

I took a postpaid 1299 from Reliance - Which has everything activated. I got a new Micro Sim & it was activated - Put in my Note 3 - Working all Good. I am not able to get data going - Any thing I need to update in the phone using DFS - Please advise - It is set to RUIM right now. Rest all settings have been checked - EVDO is active from Reliance end too. Please help if I need to do something from DFS to get data going. Thanks in Advance.

I am in same boat. got sprint note 3. Except DATA. Voice and sms works fine on RCDMA.
I have noticed few sprintpcs lines under DATA tab in DFS. Shouldnt it get deleted once you change it from NV to RUIM.
I have done OTAF via *228.

Yeah it's there in the First TAB - I have seen to - Didn't touch them though till now. Not Sure - Waiting for someone to respond. Also I didn't do these steps mentioned below:

""
3)Connect phone via DFS tool
send this code : 2012112120131219 , log will show phone is Unlocked
on the SPC tab select "Ignore SPC"

4) Go to NAM & entered all required details & write plr through pc or load from server.

5) Go to DATA & enter 1x & 3g username & password.

thn reboot the phone , after reboot you'll get the signal.

I have tested this method for Reliance CDMA network. ""

Have u done these by any chance - I recon this should get it working :confused:
