* Introduction:
Since the days of hacking using a standard telephone line are almost over,
many of todays hacker community are moving towards cellular communications.
ESN/MIN pairs are no longer difficult to obtain and if used carefully will
last much longer than calling cards, codes and most other methods of phone
phreaking.
This text file will explain how to easily connect any cellular phone to a
modem, without the expense of buying a cellular line interface or
similar device.
* What you will require:
To undertake this project you will require the following;
1 desktop telephone
1 telephone doubler socket
4 lengths of wire (30cm long)
1 roll of solder
1 roll of masking tape
You will also require a soldering iron, wire strippers and a screw driver.
* Instructions:
1. Unscrew the screws holding your desktop telephone handset together. Remove
the ear piece speaker and microphone from the plastic moulding and cut
the wires connected to them.
2. Now solder the 30cm long lengths of wire onto the existing handset ear
piece speaker and microphone wires. Once you have done this, simply re-solder
the ear piece speaker and microphone onto the extended handset wiring.
3. Place the extended handset ear piece speaker over the mouth piece on your
cellular telephone and wrap in masking tape. This will not only hold the
extended handset ear piece speaker in position, but also prevent background
noise problems.
4. Now place the extended handset microphone over the ear piece on your
cellular telephone and wrap in masking tape as above.
* How to use the device:
Basically, what you have done is turned your desktop telephone into an
accoustic coupler type device. To use the device, simply follow the
instructions below.
1. Plug your telephone doubler socket into your telephone socket. Plug
your desktop telephone into one socket and your modem line into the other
socket.
2. Leave your telephone handset off the hook until your line is completely
dead. (i.e. after you have listened to "please replace the handset and try
again" or something similar about 10 times.
3. Dial the modem dialup you wish to call on your cellular phone and
press SEND as you would normally.
4. Type ATD into your terminal package and press return. Your modem should
now be off the hook and waiting for a carrier signal from your cellular
telephone.
* Diagram of device:

desktop telephone
handset
* How it works:
The carrier signal from the remote modem will be sent out of your cellular
telephone ear piece speaker and into the desktop telephone handset
microphone. Your modem will receive any data send into the desktop telephone
handset after the ATD (off-hook) command has been issued.
In the same way, any carrier signals from your modem will be sent out of the
desktop telephone handset earpiece speaker and into your cellular telephone
microphone.
At the time of writing, I have not connected at speeds higher than 1200 baud
due to the low quality of anologue cellular network telephone lines. I would
expect that those using transportable cellular phones (such as the Motorola
4800 and 6800 series) should have no problems connecting at 2400 baud or
higher.
I did not write this text file so that people could use it to transfer large
amounts of data at high speed. This is simply a guide to explain how easy
it is to use any cellular telephone with a modem. 1200 baud may be slow,
but it is fine for hacking, calling your favourite underground BBS or
transfering text files --- especially if you are not paying for it!
If anyone has any suggestions or comments, leave feedback to 'Phantasm'
on UnAuThOrIsEd AcCeSs BBS.

This text file will explain how to easily connect any cellular phone to a
modem, without the expense of buying a cellular line interface or
similar device.
* What you will require:
To undertake this project you will require the following;
1 desktop telephone
1 telephone doubler socket
4 lengths of wire (30cm long)
1 roll of solder
1 roll of masking tape
You will also require a soldering iron, wire strippers and a screw driver.
* Instructions:
1. Unscrew the screws holding your desktop telephone handset together. Remove
the ear piece speaker and microphone from the plastic moulding and cut
the wires connected to them.
2. Now solder the 30cm long lengths of wire onto the existing handset ear
piece speaker and microphone wires. Once you have done this, simply re-solder
the ear piece speaker and microphone onto the extended handset wiring.
3. Place the extended handset ear piece speaker over the mouth piece on your
cellular telephone and wrap in masking tape. This will not only hold the
extended handset ear piece speaker in position, but also prevent background
noise problems.
4. Now place the extended handset microphone over the ear piece on your
cellular telephone and wrap in masking tape as above.
* How to use the device:
Basically, what you have done is turned your desktop telephone into an
accoustic coupler type device. To use the device, simply follow the
instructions below.
1. Plug your telephone doubler socket into your telephone socket. Plug
your desktop telephone into one socket and your modem line into the other
socket.
2. Leave your telephone handset off the hook until your line is completely
dead. (i.e. after you have listened to "please replace the handset and try
again" or something similar about 10 times.
3. Dial the modem dialup you wish to call on your cellular phone and
press SEND as you would normally.
4. Type ATD into your terminal package and press return. Your modem should
now be off the hook and waiting for a carrier signal from your cellular
telephone.

* How it works:
The carrier signal from the remote modem will be sent out of your cellular
telephone ear piece speaker and into the desktop telephone handset
microphone. Your modem will receive any data send into the desktop telephone
handset after the ATD (off-hook) command has been issued.
In the same way, any carrier signals from your modem will be sent out of the
desktop telephone handset earpiece speaker and into your cellular telephone
microphone.
At the time of writing, I have not connected at speeds higher than 1200 baud
due to the low quality of anologue cellular network telephone lines. I would
expect that those using transportable cellular phones (such as the Motorola
4800 and 6800 series) should have no problems connecting at 2400 baud or
higher.
I did not write this text file so that people could use it to transfer large
amounts of data at high speed. This is simply a guide to explain how easy
it is to use any cellular telephone with a modem. 1200 baud may be slow,
but it is fine for hacking, calling your favourite underground BBS or
transfering text files --- especially if you are not paying for it!

ADPCM Equipment for 9.6-Kbps Data
The ADPCM algorithm proposed by OKI Electric of
Japan seems to be a formidable alternative for the
standard.
(an article taken from Telephony magazine, September 1987)
[+] by Yoshihiko Yokoyama
In 1982, the CCITT started work on developing a second
digital encoding standard for speech, after decades of
extensive use of PCM at 64 kbps in the A-law or u-law
formats. The result of that effort was, the encoding
standard of the 32-kbps ADPCM algorithm, known as CCITT
recommendation G.721. It was recognized from the beginning
that the algorithm should maintain adequate performance for
voice-band data signals, although it was acknowledged that
such signals were limited to data rates of up to 4800 bps for
the state-of-the-art ADPCM algorithms. This has resulted in
a virtual hesitation of widespread application of the
standard in the public switched telephone networks (PSTNs),
for which it was intended. Network operators have concluded
that a fast-growing need exists for transmitting data at 9600
bps for their customers, and using G.721 makes that
impossible.
Susequently, the CCITT has embarked on a course of defining
a digital encoding standard for digital circuit
multiplication equipment (DCME), which combines time
assignment speech interpolation (TASI) and a low-rate
encoding technique such as ADPCM to form a very efficient
means of transmitting speech. How to transmit data in such a
system has been the subject of considerable debate and
extensive effort by many experts in the field. It should be
pointed out that, similar to the transcoding standard of
G.721, interfacing with the DCME must be accomplished by
means of an A-law or u-law encoded PCM signal format.
The need for transmitting data up to 9600 bps has been
recognized, and three algorithms have undergone scrutiny by a
group of experts in the field. Two of the algorithms have
the inherent capability of transmitting 9600-bps voice-band
data at the 32-kbps rate, whereas the third algorithm under
consideration is G.721, which does not have that capability.
[+] PRESENT STANDARDIZATION EFFORTS
DCME Aspects
A DCME system is basically an all-digital implementation of
the old concept of TASI. DCME systems operate on the
statistical behavior of a group of talkers in a communication
system. This is characterized by the average time that a
talker on a connection is actually active, nominally assumed
to be 35-40 percent of the total time the circuit is used for
a call. Thus, the remaining time is available for
time-interleaving the speech of other talkers. On the
average, circuit usage can be increased or multiplied by a
factor called digital speech interpolation (DSI) gain. Gain
factors between 2 and 2.5 are commonly used, but these gain
factors are dependent on the actual speech activity exhibited
by the talkers. The larger the group of talkers, the more
statistical stability is attained, and individual
fluctuations in speech activity can be accommodated by the
system. Long talk spurts by one talker are simultaneously
compensated by silence or shourt spurts by another.
Short durations of active speech, more than can be
accommodated by available transmission capacity, do occur.
Without "special means," this would result in what is known
as clipped speech. In DCME, this special means is provided by
instantly reducing the coding rate of one or more channels
(talkers). That is, when the DCME operates nominally with
ADPCM at 32 kbps during overload, this rate is reduced to
24 kbps for one or more channels. As sampling occurs at 8000
times per second, this means that the nominal channel being
encoded at 4 bits/sample is reduced to encoding at 3
bits/sample during overload. This brings about a small
degradation in performance by increased quantizing noise, but
it occurs only sporadically due to the statistical nature of
the phenomenon. Therefore, it is virtually imperceptible as
long as the signal load to the DCME is strictly speech. When
an appreciable part of the DCME load is data (more than 20
percent), special precaution must be taken to prevent
noticeable degradation, because data signals do not exhibit
the same on-off activity as speech. In fact, data are
considered, generally, as being 100 percent active, thus
providing no bearer circuit-sharing capability.
When the DCME load is a mix of speech and data, it is clear
overload will occur more often for the speech signals,
resulting in an associated decrease in performance in the
form of higher quantizing distortion. The choice of ADPCM
algorithm for the DCME has an important bearing on this
problem.
[+] CCITT EFFORTS
The CCITT is considering using the basic G.721 algorithm
for speech at 32 kbps for DCME, but due to that algorithm's
inablity to handle 9600-bps data at 32 kbps, encoding at 40
kbps per channel is needed for data signals at such rates.
This is clearly having a more profound influence on the use
of available bearer transmission capacity than if encoding of
data could be limited to using the 32-kbps bearer rate per
channel. For example, a 60-channel DCME system employing a
proprietary ADPCM developed by OKI Electric of Japan can
accommodate 10 percent data traffic up to 9.6 kbps, whereas
G.721 ADPCM can only accommodate 6.7 percent data and
maintain the same speech performance. Moreover, the DCME
design is considerably simpler with the proprietary ADPCM,
since there is no need to reconfigure the frame structure for
including 5-bit/sample encoding for data.
Another aspect of ADPCM in DCME systems is the need to
tandem such systems for multilink networking purposes. It
can generally be argued that no more than two DCME links
should be allowed to be switched in any end-to-end
connection. If such switching is performed by an analog
switch (asynchronous tandeming), an accumulation of
distortion will be experienced in the second link.
However, if a digital switch would be employed, directly
operating on the PCM output of the first DCME link, passing
it digitally on to the second link (synchronous tandeming),
no additional distortion will be experienced. Both the OKI
ADPCM and the G.721-related technique in DCME application
will have the "synchronous" capability as an inherent part of
the design. A third algorithm, mentioned earlier, does, not
possess that capability, and it will not be discussed.
Digital switching will increasingly be employed in the
public networks. Therefore, the loss of performance due to
asynchronous tandeming, if it occurs at all, may only be
temporarily experienced and should not pose a serious
concern. This aspect of tandeming is not uniquely related to
DMCE systems. Any application of 32 kbps could encounter the
need for tandeming in a network. As digital switching will
be increasingly applied, either by replacing analog switches
or in new installations, the advantage of the ADPCM technique
will be even more evident because of its capability of
transmitting up to 9.6-kbps voice-band data signals.
The CCITT nevertheless has decided to hold on to the G.721
technique, even though a clearly superior technique in now
available.
[+] OKI ADPCM
PERFORMANCE
Data
Extensive performance measurements have been made in a
carefully assembled test bed at COMSAT Laboratories. (This
test bed received approval by the organizations that
submitted ADPCM equipment for evaluation and comparison in a
CCITT context. This made comparisons between algorithms
valid and accurate.) The circuit in which the ADPCM
equipment was tested included a simulated analog access link
which introduced typical distortion effects (analog
impairments) that a voice-band data signal may experience
before being encoded by the ADPCM link.
The typical performance after encoding by OKI ADPCM of a
CCITT V.29 modem (The V.32 modems will perform even better
than V.29 modems because of their inherent design. Thus,
V.29 performance shown (graphs are not shown here in this
text due to the inablility to draw or copy it here with
this word processor) here is more critical to the user.)
in terms of block error rate (BLER), as a function of S/N
ratio of the data signal in the analog impairment circuit
(i.e, just before being encoded), is illustrated in figure 1.
Ther lower curve shown resulted after a single ADPCM
encoding, whereas the higher curve resulted after a second
ADPCM link was added to the first by means of an analog
interconnection between the two links. Thus, this second
curve is the result of asynchronous tandeming of two links.
The curve showing single encoding perfomance applies also for
the case of multiple encodings via digital switches, referred
to as synchronous tandeming. A reference performance
threshold of BLER = 10-2nd power at S/N =30.5 db (this
reference point was selected by an SG XVIII expert group.) is
well met by both curves. This indicates the excellent
capability of the ADPCM equipment for transmitting 9.6-kbps
V.29 signals.
The performance of a V.29 modem operating at the back-off
rate of 4.8-kbps tandem through four asynchronous encodings
of the ADPCM equipment is shown in figure 2. For comparison,
the dashed curve in fig. 2 shows the performance of the same
modem when four asychronous links of G.721 ADPCM equipment
are substituted for the OKI equipment. At S/N values to be
expected in the networks, the OKI advanced ADPCM can perform
two or more orders of magnitude better than G.721. This may
not be required for this modem speed, but it is simply a
consequence of its inherently more powerful predictor than
that employed in G.721, and, as such, it provides an
increased performance margin.
Voice
When considering ADPCM designs, the primary purpose has
always been to provide high performance for voice signals.
This objective has unquestionably been attained by the
G.721 designers. Extensive subjective tests have proven
the algorithm delivers the speech performance required for
the networks.
Similarly, the OKI ADPCM equipment provides the required
performance when speech is transmitted through it. Tests
similar to those used for evaluating the G.721 algorithm have
been performed with the OKI ADPCM equipment, particulary for
the English and Japanese languages.
DCME Gain
As has been pointed out earlier in the article, when
applied in DCME systems, the proprietary ADPCM technique
offers the advantage of encoding all voice-band data by using
only only 4 bits/sample. This offers a bearer-channel
efficiency advantage of up to 20 percent when transmitting 60
channels with 20 percent data. This includes a
bearer-capacity increase to avoid speech degradation. Such
an advantage may be particularly important for countries that
may want to minimize their cost of communication.
It should be emphasized, however, that without DCME, the
main advantage of the propietary ADPCM resides in its
capability of transmitting up to 9.6-kbps voice-band data.
This has an important bearing on networks, since meeting
this requirement is or will become indispensable.

Upgrading for Astra 1D (set your page width 78)
October 1995
<---------------------------------------------------------------------------->
This article is Copyright 1995 M T Pickering
You may store or print it for your own use but you may not publish it
without permission from the author and you may not sell it.
<---------------------------------------------------------------------------->
Astra 1D is the fourth Astra satellite. The satellites sit together in a
tight cluster out in space (see the promotional video if it is still being
broadcast).
Each satellite broadcasts 16 or more channels.
Each satellite transmits these channels within a certain band of
frequencies.
Astra 1E uses the highest band. 1F is also planned.
Astra 1C uses a high band.
Astra 1B uses a lower band
Astra 1A uses a still lower band
Astra 1D uses the lowest
The old, standard LNB is designed to amplify channels in the middle three
bands.
Some can also amplify channels in the lowest (1D) band but the tuner in
your old receiver probably can't tune low enough to receive them. (Some
receivers can just about tune down to the TOP channel of Astra 1D but no
further).
There are several ways of getting to watch these 1D channels:
Some receivers can't tune lower but they can tune HIGHER. If the numbers in
your tuning display go up to 11.990 then you may be in luck. An "Enhanced"
LNB not only amplifies the 1D channels but it also sends ALL channels down
the cable at a higher frequency. It effectively shifts them all higher by a
count of 250.
So if you fit an "Enhanced" LNB to your dish and tune EVERY channel higher
by 250, you should be able to receive every channel listed, or at least
from NBC Super Channel near the bottom of 1D up to CNN International near
the top of Astra 1C band.
(For example, with your standard LNB you will find CNN tuned to
approximately 11.627 but with an "Enhanced" LNB you must retune to 11.877 -
that is 250 higher. Do this for every channel and the job is done. An
hour's work with a calculator.
Examples of receivers which will work with an "Enhanced" LNB are:
Most Pace SS9200 and derivatives (GIRD3000, SAT1600, BUSH IRD150).
Any Pace PRD800 or 900 which has "2GHz" on the serial number label
underneath -
(Otherwise a small modification may be needed to extend the range)
Almost any receiver whose tuning display goes to 11.999 or higher.
Receivers built in 1995 or later. You may need to change the Installation
Menu LNB Offset from 10.00 to 9.75 or 09.75 in the case of Grundig
GRD150/250.
(Some receivers such as PRD800/900 can have "Enhanced" software fitted so
that the frequency display is correct with an "Enhanced" LNB. In addition,
a PRD800 can be given 199 channels instead of 120. This is also true for
the Amstrad SRD510).
Even if your receiver will not tune high enough, you can still use an
"Enhanced" LNB but you will lose the higher channels, such as Sky Sports,
UK Gold, CMT and CNN.
However, you can get these channels back by fitting a "Global ADX Plus".
When it is switched ON it shifts all the channels DOWN by a count of 500.
So it counteracts the effect of the "Enhanced" LNB which has shifted them
UP by 250.
The "ADX Plus" connects between the satellite receiver and the LNB cable.
There are various ways of switching it ON and OFF, dependent on your
satellite receiver. I won't go into this; just assume that you use the
ON/OFF switch on the "ADX Plus". With a paperclip you have to push in a
little internal switch when you first fit it.
With the "Enhanced" LNB fitted to the dish, tune ALL channels 250 higher,
except channels which are above Sky Movies. Tune these top channels 250
LOWER.
To watch these top channels you will need to switch the "ADX Plus" ON. For
the rest of the channels switch it OFF.
You CAN watch some Astra 1D channels if you use a Standard LNB.
You have to fit an ADX which will shift the channels UP by a count of 500
when it is ON.
All your existing channels remain tuned the same with the ADX off. You
don't need to alter them. Starting with a channel number higher than those
already in use, you can tune in the Astra 1D channels. With the ADX
switched ON, tune all the Astra 1D channels by a count of 500 higher than
the magazine listing says. Switch the ADX ON when you want to watch these
channels. Switch it OFF when you want to watch your existing channels. (In
fact, you don't really need to tune in extra channels for astra 1D. When
you switch the ADX on you will find that they appear instead of some of the
existing ones).
The main drawback of using your old standard LNB is that it was not
designed to amplify the Astra 1D channels. Some channels may be so sparkly
as to be unwatchable.

AT&T PROTECTS CELLULAR PHONE CALLS FROM UNWANTED LISTENERS
GREENSBORO, N.C. -- New technology from AT&T is cutting
eavesdroppers out of the loop for cellular phone conversations.
The AT&T Cellular Privacy System protects cellular calls by
scrambling the cellular telephone's over-the-air signal. The
signal is descrambled at the cellular carrier's switch, trans-
mitting a conventional phone signal to the recipient.
If the scrambled over-the-air signal is intercepted, the
eavesdropper will hear only a chirping sound. AT&T's advanced
privacy technology destroys the intelligibility of the over-the-
air signal.
"This system significantly increases the usefulness of cel-
lular phones for anyone in business with a duty of
confidentiality--or anyone who simply wants protection from
eavesdroppers," says Ed Hickey, AT&T Vice President, Secure Com-
munications Systems.
"It enables users to conduct business on their cellular
phone just as they would in their office or home."
The AT&T system is an unprecedented solution to a problem
inherent in cellular technology. Cellular telephone calls,
transmitted as radio signals, are easily interceptable with inex-
pensive, widely available scanners.
The AT&T Cellular Privacy System is the first widely
available, integrated solution to the privacy problem. It offers
benefits far beyond those of any other cellular privacy products.
o It's the first privacy system with technology compact enough
and light enough to be embeddable in today's small, portable
phones.
o The system features an unmatched combination of high voice
quality and an advanced level of privacy.
o It is applicable to all three types of cellular telephones--
portable, transportable ("bag phones") and mobile (car
phones).
The system has two components. The AT&T privacy unit at-
taches to the phone and scrambles the phone's signal. The Mobile
Telephone Switching Office (MTSO) unit is installed at the cel-
lular carrier's switch and descrambles the signal.
The first compatible phone is the AT&T Model 9000 Privacy-
Capable Cellular Telephone, an 8.9-ounce portable model.
Suggested retail price of the Model 9000 is $795. The op-
tional privacy unit retails for $895. The phone, privacy unit
and switch unit will be available in February.

The phone will be sold through carriers and by a variety of
retail outlets including cellular telephone agents, consumer
electronics stores and mass merchandisers and through an inter-
national network of distributors.
Because the privacy system scrambles the only over-the-air
portion of the call, no matching unit or special equipment is re-
quired at the receiving end.
Installation of the privacy module is quick and simple.
Once the phone is equipped, privacy is activated by simply
pressing a button anytime during the call.
Service and support for the phone and privacy unit will be
available through the nationwide network of Antel service
centers.
The AT&T Cellular Privacy System was developed by AT&T
Secure Communications Systems, a world leader in the design,
manufacture and integration of encryption and privacy products.
It is a primary supplier of secure products to the governments
of the United States and other nations as well as corporations

Subject: Cellular Telephones in Australia
Organization: The University of Melbourne
In Australia the Mobile Telephone service is supplied as a monopoly by
Telecom Australia. You can buy a phone unit from anyone, but TA links
you to the PSTN.
The phone numbers of mobile phones all begin with a pseudo area code
018. The next digit reflects the area code of the home area eg
Melbourne is 03, so a mobile phone from Melbourne is 018 3xx xxx.
Since TA monopolises the PSTN for the whole of Australia, roaming is
no problem, except in remote and rural areas which are not covered by
the cellular network.
I don't know the rental on the service, but call rates are as follows:
All charges are paid by the caller, whether to or from a mobile phone.
All calls are charged at the same rate as a normal long distance call,
but with a minimum calling distance of 745km ( 465 miles ).
Distance 1-745km > 745 km
Time
8am-6pm Mon-Fri 39c 57c
6pm-10pm Mon-Fri 26c 38c
10pm-8am Mon-Fri
6pm Sat-8am Mon 15c 23c
Like all calls in Australia the charges are made in multiples of
$0.21, which is the minimum charge per call.
AUD$1.00= USD$0.77 and AUD$1.00 = 48 pence?

PART I. WHAT IS BROADCAST FROM A CELLULAR TOWER?
When a cellular phone makes a call, it normally transmits it's
Electronic Security Number(ESN),Mobile Identification Number(MIN),it's
Station Class Mark(SCM) and the number called in a short burst of data.
This burst is the short buzz you hear after you press the SEND button and
before the tower catches the data. These four things are the components
the cellular provider uses to ensure that the phone is programmed to be
billed and that it also has the identity of both the customer and the
phone.
There are usually two cellular phone companies in an area. One is
the wire-line carrier (Band B), which is usually Bell, and the other is the
non-wireline carrier (Band A). Within the two bands are 832 cellular phone
channels. Each one has 416 bands, and within the bands are voice channels
that actually transmit and receive information from cellular phones.
The ESN and the phone number (MIN) are the two primary identifiers
for any cellular phone. By changing both, the cellular carrier will accept
the call and bill it to either a wrong account or provide service based on
the fact that it is NOT a disconnected receiver. It will also look at the
other two components, in order to insure that it is actually a cellular
phone and to forward billing information to that carrier.
The Station Class Mark can also be changed if you wish to prevent
the cellular carrier from determining the type of phone that is placing the
call. By providing the cellular tower with a false SCM, the cellular
carrier, the FCC, or whoever happens to chase down cellular fraud is often
looking for a particular phone which in reality is not the phone they are
looking for. For example, you can provide the SCM for a Radio Shack phone,
when in reality you are using a Novatell (How this is done from changing
the SCM I do not know...remember...I didn't write this).
The Number Assignment Module (NAM) also has the SIDH (System
Identification for Home System) number programmed into it. Refer to SIDH
TABLE. The transmittal of the SIDH number tells the carrier where to forward
the billing information to in case the user is "roaming". The SIDH table
tells the major cities and their identifying numbers. Changing an SIDH is
programming job that takes only minutes, but be aware that the ESN is still
sent to the cellular phone company. After they realize that the ESN is
connected to either a fake number or a phone that is not in the network, they
will block service. They only way around this is to reprogram the ESN.

5. Unscrew the four combination screws that hold the linear circuit board and received the back cover screws.
Grasp the linear board at the top and lift it straight away from the front case, unplugging the 16-pin connector.
6. Remove the three screws holding the metal frame assembly which held the linear board to the front panel. Unplug the red-black power lead and lay the frame aside. It is still connected to the battery contacts.
7. Locate diodes D9 - D12 on the volume control side of the of the logic circuit board under T1; D10 and D11 are marked. Clip one lead of D11, separating the gap. This may be resoldered later if desired.
8. Reassemble the board by reversing the disassembly procedures above.
Restoration of Cellular Frequency Coverage on
Radio Shack PRO-2004 Scanner
By cutting diode D513 on the PC 3 sub chassis in the Realistic PRO-2004
Scanner you can re-enable the 825.00 to 845.00 and 870-00 to 890.00 frequency
selection. To scan in 30KHZ steps press "STEP-RESET".
Restoration of Cellular Frequency Coverage on
Radio Shack PRO-2005 Scanner
1. Unplug the radio
2. Remove the screws and take off the top cover.
3. Look for D502 on the inside right hand-side of the front panel.
(No need to unsolder the silver plate protecting the vertical board!)
4. Simply cut the diode and reverse the process.
Aren't you glad I only chose to cover Radio Shack models. I'm sure
you appreciate the fact that I only deal with quality merchandise. If you
have some cash to blow (like $500), I would recommend buying the ICOM R-1
handheld scanner. It scans from 1 to 1400 in 1/2 step increments and already
includes the cellular frequencies. Plus is is about as tall as a box of 3.25
floppies and about as wide as a 16 oz. coke bottle. It is the smallest and
one of the more powerful hand-scanners around.

PART XI. THE 40-50 MHZ CELLULAR SCANNER
The cellular phone freqs. occupy the UHF spectrum previously assign
to commercial TV stations. Since a TV channel occupies a Bandwidth(BW) of 6
MHZ and each cellular channel requires 24 KZ (for a plus and minus 12 KHZ
signal) and a 3KHZ guard band for each audio signal (thus the 30KHZ spacing).
200 cellular channels can fit into one UHF TV channel. Thus, with a little
fine tuning, and old TV set with variable VHF tuning can tune in all
cellular freqs. between 824 and 890 MHZ.
UHF TV tuners ares designed to convert these UHF freqa. to intermediate
(difference) freqs. between 41 and 47 MHZ. Thus, by purchasing a commonly
available UHF tuner (check sith a TV shop and try to get a copy of the
SAMS for powering the AFC info, and avoid those with tubes). Tuner voltage
is usually 8-24 volts, and must be correctly connected up. You should also
remove with the tuner, the TV's channel select and fine tuning controls
for ease of use - and they should be in good condition.
Once you have the tuner, you can then wire it between a 30-50 MHZ scanner and
a UHF antenna (highly directional yagi type is preferred). Since the tuner
will probably have a 300 ohm input impedance, a twin antenna cable is
preferred (Yes Radio Shack has 'em). If you are into directional-finding,
the UHF antenna should NOT have AGC (automatic Gain Control) as those with
active AGC will amplify reflections, resulting in readings from so many
directions that the target will be lost. Because of the use of inconspicuous,
commonly available, inexpensive, high-gain UHF antennas, using a good UHF
tuner to scan cellular channels is a good method of doing it.
Tuner output is usually through an RCA-type plug. CAUTION: BE SURE TO COUPLE
YOUR SCANNER TO THE UHF TUNER WITH A 0.01-0.1 mf (50 V min.) CAPACITOR FOR
DC BLOCKING. AND DO NOT TRY TO OPERATE THE TUNER THROUGH ITS TV SET AS THE
DANGER OF HIGH-VOLTAGE DISCHARGE IS HIGH. Also, connect a ground wire
between the tuner and the scanner.
The table below describes how cellular freqs. can be downconverted by a
commonly available UHF TV tuner (all freqs. are in MHZ)

(**) These freqs. are outside of the normal Channel 83 BW. However, most UHF
tuners have a fine tuner that can be adjusted up to about another 6 MHZ.
Note that the term "first" and "last" refers to the first and last cellular
channels receivable by the UHF tuner for the given TV channel. Base voice
channels are monitored when both sides of the conversation is required.
Mobile voice channels or base control channels are monitored to locate a
cellular phone. Tuning is simple:
(1) Decide which cellular channel or freq. you wish to monitor.
(2) Find what UHF channel includes that freq. and switch the TV
to that channel.
(3) Using the table, look up the corresponding TV oscillator freq.
(ex: 919 MHZ for TV channel 81). Subtract the cellular channel
freq. from the TV oscillator freq.
(4) Tune your scanner to the difference freq.
When you select a scanner, you should pick one that will scan in 30 MHZ
increments to efficiently receive cellular transmissions. If you can't get
one like that, then get one that will scan in 15,10 or 5 KHZ increments.

PART XII. HOW THE ESN IS REPLACED
It takes some electronics skill to pull or unsolder the ESN. If you
are sketchy about messing around with your phone, I suggest practicing on
something else first, like an old calculator or something. It is also a
good idea to use the proper tools (A very small soldering tip,chip pullers,
It is imperative NOT to touch any of the surrounding connections, soldering
joints, or chips. The job MUST be done right the very first time. After
that it is not so important, because after the first time you should have the
ESN information stored safely to disk. The only dangers remaining are
physically damaging the chip. (Note: There are devices that wipe PROMs
clean in the event of programming errors).
When removing the ESN, try to follow these 5 steps:
A. Remove the PC board containing the ESN from the entire phone unit. The
boards are usually screwed in with Phillips heads. This will insure
against damage to the rest of the unit.
B. Ascertain the correct chip. Find the letters on the chip, and check it
against the letters from the IDENTIFYING THE ESN section. Refer to the .Gif
file included if necessary.
C. It is a good idea to draw a sketch to help you remember which way the chip
went in. You may laugh, but do it anyway.
D. Carefully remove the chip. Take your time and use the proper tools.
E. Solder in a zero insertion force (ZIF) replacement, so that replacement
chip can be changed easily.
After the ZIF socket has been successfully soldered in, reinsert the
ESN and attempt to make a phone call (Be sure the NAM is programmed
correctly). If it doesn't, check the leads on the ZIF to insure that you
have soldered them correctly. After that, insert your ESN into your PROM
reader and make sure it provides some sort of reading. You should use the
search mode to look for the manufacturers serial number.
(see MANUFACTURER'S ESN CODE LISTING) to identify the address on the PROM
where to reprogram the ESN.

PART XIII. EQUATIONS FOR PROGRAMMING THE CHIPS
In most instances, you will not be able to tell the code on a PROM
because the manufacturer will have blown the security fuse in order to
prevent people from obtaining the codes to reprogram their own chips.
Therefore, it might be necessary to produce a set of equations that are
programmed into the cip to produce a bogus ESN. The bogus chips must contain
the first three digits of the manufacturer's code listing, which is
consequently the first marker of the actual ESN. Experimentation might be
necessary, but hey, isn't that half the fun?
With the aid of an EPROM emulator, the whole process should be able
to be completed in under an hour - this includes pulling the chip, creating
a new ESN, programming the chip, and replacing it.
So know you're saying "Holy Cow this project is getting expensive!".
Well it can get that way, but the long run payoff is worth it. I have seen
both emulators and burners for under $200 (I'm not talking about those spiffy
models that program RAM, just the basic EPROMs...in fact I can buy them for
under $150. Same with the emulator. Just look around.)
I wouldn't be surprised if actual ESN data started appearing on
boards in the near future. I know when I finsish my phone (Hopefully soon)
I plan on U/L the ESN info somewhere.

PART XVI. "THE ROAMING SCAM"
Some people who are playing with phones that have been originally
registered but have been turned off for non-payment of bills have used the
"Roaming Scam" to place free calls. NOTE: The cellular carriers will still
have records of these calls, and will prosecute those they eventually catch
up to (yeah,right). However, industry standards have shown that they pursue
less than one percent of the fraudulent calls placed. It is far more
economical for them to build software and hardware traps to prevent unbilled
calls from being placed rather than attempt to collect on the other end
which involves greater amounts of personnel and manpower with smaller actual
collections.
People have performed the roaming scam by taking their phones into
areas where the SIDH numbers are different from the ones currently programmed
into their phones. Refer to the SIDH listing in this file for the codes for
particular cities. By reprogramming the NAM and inserting a fake SIDH, the
cellular carrier will often accept the phone call, but on occassion the user
will get a message that the phone must have a local code in order to access
the system. As cellular carriers grow larger in size, this message is less
frequently heard. At this point, the cellular carrier instructs the user to
contact them. I don't think so.
The cellular service has the best chance of of catching a spoofer who
either calls a friend continually at home or by developing traceable trends
such as calling the same number from within the same cell at the same time
every day. Or doing something stupid like ordering a Pizza.
"But I want to hook up the phone to an acoustic coupler, d00d, and
call all the k-rad out-state-boards for the latest
PyRut WaR3z!4@$$!$@!@" <-lamer.
Well, one of the properties of cellular phone systems is that the
transmitter freqs. may be changed or "hopped" in the constant effort to
allocate freqs. Because of freq. hopping it is very difficult to
triangulate a cellular phone using standard directional finding methods
(trace you, d00d). Further, it is known that a directional antenna randomly
aimed at cellsite repeaters will confuse directional finding equipment
being used by them that is synced to their freq. hopping scheme.

PART II. DEFINITIONS
The following is a list of commonly used abbreviations used in cellular
phones.
SIDH
A 15-bit field in the NAM designating the System Identification for the Home
System. Bit 0 of the SIDH corresponds to the Preferred System flag used
elsewhere in the NAM. Bits 6 and 5 of byte 0 are international code bits.
Normally the SIDH is entered during programming of the phone as a 5 digit
decimal number. Enter 0's to the left-most unused positions when
reprogramming.
L.U.
Local Use Flag. Tells the cellular phone user if it must preregister with
the system. Preregistration with the system means that a mobile must
transmit its parameters to the Cellular System as soon as the power-up
task and the control channel tasks are completed. "1" enables the flag.
Usually set to "1".
MIN MARK
A 1-bit flag designating that MIN2 (area code) is always sent when making
system access. "1" enables the flag. Usually set to "1".
MIN2
A 10-bit field representing the area code of the mobile ID number.
MIN1
A 24-bit field representing the mobile telephone number. MIN2 plus MIN1
equals MIN, the 10-digit phone number.
SCM
A 4-bit field designating the Station Class Mark. A (3-Watt) 832 channel
mobile unit typically will be 1000, a 1.2 Watt portable 1001 or a 0.6 Watt
handheld 1010 or 1110 (discontinuous transmission, meaning push-to-talk).
These are class I, Class II and Class III power levels respectively.
With the SCM the cellular system determines whether or not a cellular phone
can be switched to one of the 156 channels.
Bit-1 is "0" for 666 and "1" for 832. (See cellular freq. list)
Bit-2 is "0" for a mobile unit and "1" for a voice-activated
transmit.
Bit-3 and -4 identify the power class of the phone:
"00" = 3.0 watts
"01" = 1.2 watts
"10" = 0.6 watts
"11" is not assigned
IPCH
An 11-bit field designating the initial paging channel to be used if in
the home system. Normally it is 334 for wireline systems, 333 for non-
wireline systems. But most phones allow other settings for test purposes.
ACCOLC
A 4-bit field designating the overload class for the cellular phone. The
intention of this entry is to allow the Cellular System to be able to
determine priority in the event of a system overload, however it is currently
useless as the system operators have generally not provided guidance for
thier installers. The usual (and correct) system now in effect (in U.S.) is
to use a "0" plus the last digit of the phone number. Test phones should be
set at "10",emergency vehicles at "11","12" through "15" are reserved.
(A class 15 system is supposed to be police, fire, or military).
P.S.
1 1-bit flag designating the preferred system. If PS is "0", channels 334
through 666(EVIL!!!) are used. If PS is "1" then channels 1 through 333 are
used. Even numbered system numbers (B systems) require a PS of "0", odd
system numbers (A systems) require a "1".
GIM
A 4-bit field designating the Group Identification Mark. This number tells
the Cellular system how far to look in the SIDH to determine if it is roaming
in a system which may have a roam agreement with the phone system. It is
usually set to "10".
LOCK DIGITS
A 4-bit field designating the unlock code. The digit "0" in the lock code
is represented by an "A" in the actual NAM hexidecimal data. A lock code of
all "0" sometimes unlocks the cellular phone.(Note: Lock codes are 3 digits.
When programming a phone use "0" as the first number.)
E.E.
A 1-bit flag designating that end-to-end signaling is enabled. End-to-end
signaling means that the DTMF tones will be transmitted on the voice channel
as well as being echoed on the handset. This feature in necessary for
such services as Bank by Phone, activating answering machines and in third
party long distance services such as Sprint and MCI. A "1" enables the flag.
Usually set to "1".
REP
A 1-bit flag designating that repertory memory (speed dialing) in the
cellular phone is enabled. And once a again a "1" enables the flag.
H.A.
A 1-bit flag designating that the horn alert feature in enabled. "1" enables
the flag.
H.F.
A 1-bit flag designating that the handsfree option is enabled. A "1" enables
the flag. Often, transceivers supplied as hands-free units require that
this flag be left at "0".

PART III. TYPES OF NAMS
NAM Types Used in Cellular Phones
NAM- Number Assignment Module - A 32 word by 8 bit PROM
The NAM contains all the information that can be programmed to the phone
directly from the handset. (i.e. SIDH,MIN,LOCK-CODE,etc.).
All phones except NEC will accept tri-state NAMs. NEC requires an open
collector NAM. Fujitsu phones will accept either open collector or tri-
state NAMs.
Brand Qualifications: Fujitsu and Alpine phones will not operate properly
with any Harris Brand NAM or with any Signetics brand NAMs with a part
number NOT ending with an "A". TI NAMs must not be used in GE Star models.
Panasonic has suggested only TI NAMs should be used in their phones. NAMs
are available in ceramic (F) or plastic encapsulation (N).

PART VII. THE ELECTRONIC SERIAL NUMBER - AN INTRODUCTION
When a cellular phone is removed from factory packaging, the ESN
normally can be found in the document package (or on a sticker stuck to the
phone). This ESN is usually correct and system registration procedes
quickly. If the phone is used or has been turned off for non-payment of
bills, the person who restores the service needs the ESN in order to program
the system with an MIN. Every manufacturer assigns their own ESN,
consequently it is possible to have a number of the same ESN's, although
each may be produced by a seperate manufacturer. For example, there may be
a Motorola ESN of 123456, an Audiovox ESN of 123456, etc. With this in mind
it is a possibility that a person could broadcast without changing the ESN,
but rather changing the SCM and the SIDH.
The ESN is a 32-bit number which uniquely identifies each unit. This
ESN is factory programmed and installed and cannot be changed in the field
without removing it and reprogramming a new chip. The ESN may or may not be
related to the serial number stamped on the outside of the transceiver
chassis. The ESN is encoded into messages which are interchanged with the
cellular tower. The ESN must be provided when the phone is registered for
service. The ESN is an 11-digit number. THE FIRST THREE NUMBERS ARE THE
MANUFACTURERS DECIMAL CODE, THE NEXT TWO ARE RESERVED (BUT MAY CONTAIN ZEROS
OR NUMBERS) AND THE REMAINING SIX ARE THE DECIMAL SERIAL NUMBER.
*****************************************************************************

View File
@@ -0,0 +1,49 @@
PART VIII. IDENTIFYING THE ESN IN YOUR CELLULAR PHONE
Depending on what model phone you have, the ESN will be located on a
PROM. The PROM is programmed at the factory, and installed usually with the
security fuse blown to prevent tampering. The code on the PROM might
possibly be obtained by unsoldering it from the cellular phone, putting it in
a PROM reader, and then obtaining a memory map of the chip.
The PROM is going to have from sixteen to twenty-eight leads coming
from it. It is a bipolar PROM. SEE ESN.GIF FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.
The majority of phones will accept the National Semiconductor 32x8 PROM,
which will hold the ESN and cannot be reprogrammed. If the ESN is known
on the phone, it is possible to trace the memory map by installing the PROM
into a reader, and obtaining the fuse map from the PROM by triggering the
"READ MASTER" switch of the PROM programmer. In addition, most PROM
programming systems include a verify and compare switch to allow you to
compare the programming of one PROM with another.
As said earlier, the ESN is uniformly black with sixteen to
twenty-eight leads emanating from it's rectangular body, or square shaped
body. If it is the dual-in-line package chip, (usually found in
transportables and installed phones),it is rectangular. If it is the plastic
leaded chip carrier (PLCC), it will be square and have a much smaller
appearance. Functionally, they are the same chip, but the PLCC is used with
hand held cellular phones because of the need for reduced size circuitry.
It will have a notch within, and also have writing in small white letters
on it. (A black chip with small white letters? Should be easy to spot huh?).
Look for the follow letters on the chip:
MMI
TI
NS
HARRIS
NSC
MB
DM
HM
AMD
TBP
MOTOROLA
AMPS
Once you have found the chip, try ordering a new one (maybe a couple of new
ones) from the businesses in the MERCHANDISE SECTION located at the end of
this file.

THE ELECTRONIC SERIAL NUMBER: A CELLULAR 'SIEVE'?
'SPOOFERS' CAN DEFRAUD USERS AND CARRIERS
by Geoffrey S. Goodfellow, Robert N. Jesse, and Andrew H. Lamothe, Jr.
What's the greatest security problem with cellular phones? Is it privacy of
communications? No.
Although privacy is a concern, it will pale beside an even greater problem:
spoofing.
'Spoofing' is the process through which an agent (the 'spoofer') pretends to
be somebody he isn't by proffering false identification, usually with intent
to defraud. This deception, which cannot be protected against using the
current U.S. cellular standards, has the potential to create a serious
problem--unless the industry takes steps to correct some loopholes in the
present cellular standards.
Compared to spoofing, the common security concern of privacy is not so severe.
Most cellular subscribers would, at worst, be irked by having their
conversational privacy violated. A smaller number of users might actually
suffer business or personal harm if their confidential exchanges were
compromised. For them, voice encryption equipment is becoming increasingly
available if they are willing to pay the price for it.
Thus, even though technology is available now to prevent an interloper from
overhearing sensitive conversations, cellular systems cannot--at any
cost--prevent pirates from charging calls to any account. This predicament is
not new to the industry. Even though cellular provides a modern,
sophisticated quality mobile communications service, it is not fundamentally
much safer than older forms of mobile telephony.
History of Spoofing Vulnerability
The earliest form of mobile telephony, unsquelched manual Mobile Telephone
Service (MTS), was vulnerable to interception and eavesdropping. To place a
call, the user listened for a free channel. When he found one, he would key
his microphone to ask for service: 'Operator, this is Mobile 1234; may I please
have 555-7890.' The operator knew to submit a billing ticket for account
number 1234 to pay for the call. So did anybody else listening to the
channel--hence the potential for spoofing and fraud.
Squelched channel MTS hid the problem only slightly because users ordinarily
didn't overhear channels being used by other parties. Fraud was still easy
for those who turned off the squelch long enough to overhear account numbers.
Direct-dial mobile telephone services such as Improved Mobile Telephone
Service (IMTS) obscured the problem a bit more because subscriber
identification was made automatically rather than by spoken exchange between
caller and operator. Each time a user originated a call, the mobile telephone
transmitted its identification number to the serving base station using some
form of Audio Frequency Shift Keying (AFSK), which was not so easy for
eavesdroppers to understand.
Committing fraud under IMTS required modification of the mobile--restrapping
of jumpers in the radio unit, or operating magic keyboard combinations in
later units--to reprogram the unit to transmit an unauthorized identification
number. Some mobile control heads even had convenient thumb wheel switches
installed on them to facilitate easy and frequent ANI (Automatic Number
Identification) changes.
Cellular Evolution
Cellular has evolved considerably from these previous systems. Signaling
between mobile and base stations uses high-speed digital techniques and
involves many different types of digital messages. As before, the cellular
phone contains its own Mobile Identification Number (MIN), which is programmed
by the seller or service shop and can be changed when, for example, the phones
sold to a new user. In addition, the U.S. cellular standard incorporates a
second number, the 'Electronic Serial Number' (ESN), which is intended to
uniquely and permanently identify the mobile unit.
According to the Electronic Industries Association (EIA) Interim Standard
IS-3-B, Cellular System Mobile Station--Land Station Compatibility
Specification (July 1984), 'The serial number is a 32-bit binary number that
uniquely identifies a mobile station to any cellular system. It must be
factory-set and not readily alterable in the field. The circuitry that
provides the serial number must be isolated from fraudulent contact and
tampering. Attempts to change the serial number circuitry should render the
mobile station inoperative.'
The ESN was intended to solve two problems the industry observed with its
older systems.
First, the number of subscribers that older systems could support fell far
short of the demand in some areas, leading groups of users to share a single
mobile number (fraudulently) by setting several phones to send the same
identification. Carriers lost individual user accountability and their means
of predicting and controlling traffic on their systems.
Second, systems had no way of automatically detecting use of stolen equipment
because thieves could easily change the transmitted identification.
In theory, the required properties of the ESN allow cellular systems to check
to ensure that only the correctly registered unit uses a particular MIN, and
the ESNs of stolen units can be permanently denied service ('hot-listed').
This measure is an improvement over the older systems, but vulnerabilities
remain.
Ease of ESN Tampering
Although the concept of the unalterable ESN is laudable in theory, weaknesses
are apparent in practice. Many cellular phones are not constructed so that
'attempts to change the serial number circuitry renders the mobile station
inoperative.' We have personally witnessed the trivial swapping of one ESN
chip for another in a unit that functioned flawlessly after the switch was
made.
Where can ESN chips be obtained to perform such a swap? We know of one recent
case in the Washington, D.C. area in which an ESN was 'bought' from a local
service shop employee in exchange for one-half gram of cocaine. Making the
matter simpler, most manufacturers are using industry standard Read-Only
Memory (ROM) chips for their ESNs, which are easily bought and programmed or
copied.
Similarly, in the spirit of research, a west coast cellular carrier copied the
ESN from one manufacturer's unit to another one of the same type and
model--thus creating two units with the exact same identity.
The ESN Bulletin Board
For many phones, ESN chips are easy to obtain, program, and install. How does
a potential bootlegger know which numbers to use? Remember that to obtain
service from a system, a cellular unit must transmit a valid MIN (telephone
number) and (usually) the corresponding serial number stored in the cellular
switch's database.
With the right equipment, the ESN/MIN pair can be read right off the air
because the mobile transmits it each time it originates a call. Service shops
can capture this information using test gear that automatically receives and
decodes the reverse, or mobile-to-base, channels.
Service shops keep ESN/MIN records on file for units they have sold or
serviced, and the carriers also have these data on all of their subscribers.
Unscrupulous employees could compromise the security of their customers'
telephones.
In many ways, we predict that 'trade' in compromised ESN/MIN pairs will
resemble what currently transpires in the long distance telephone business
with AT&T credit card numbers and alternate long-distance carrier (such as
MCI, Sprint and Alltel) account codes. Code numbers are swapped among
friends, published on computer 'bulletin boards' and trafficked by career
criminal enterprises.
Users whose accounts are being defrauded might--or might not--eventually
notice higher-than-expected bills and be reassigned new numbers when they
complain to the carrier. Just as in the long distance business, however, this
number 'turnover' (deactivation) won't happen quickly enough to make abuse
unprofitable. Catching pirates in the act will be even tougher than it is in
the wireline telephone industry because of the inherent mobility of mobile
radio.
Automating Fraud
Computer hobbyists and electronics enthusiasts are clever people. Why should
a cellular service thief 'burn ROMs' and muck with hardware just to install
new IDs in his radio? No Herculean technology is required to 'hack' a phone
to allow ESN/MIN programming from a keyboard, much like the IMTS phone thumb
wheel switches described above.
Those not so technically inclined may be able to turn to mail-order
entrepreneurs who will offer modification kits for cellular fraud, much as
some now sell telephone toll fraud equipment and pay-TV decoders.
At least one manufacturer is already offering units with keyboard-programmable
MINs. While intended only for the convenience of dealers and service shops,
and thus not described in customer documentation, knowledgeable and/or
determined end users will likely learn the incantations required to operate
the feature. Of course this does not permit ESN modification, but easy MIN
reprogrammability alone creates a tremendous liability in today's roaming
environment.
The Rolls Royce of this iniquitous pastime might be a 'Cellular Cache-Box.'
It would monitor reverse setup channels and snarf ESN/MIN pairs off the air,
keeping a list in memory. Its owner could place calls as on any other
cellphone. The Cache-Box would automatically select an ESN/MIN pair from its
catalog, use it once and then discard it, thus distributing its fraud over
many accounts. Neither customer nor service provider is likely to detect the
abuse, much less catch the perpetrator.
As the history of the computer industry shows, it is not far-fetched to
predict explosive growth in telecommunications and cellular that will bring
equipment prices within reach of many experimenters. Already we have seen the
appearance of first-generation cellular phones on the used market, and new
units can be purchased for well under $1000 in many markets.
How High The Loss?
Subscribers who incur fraudulent charges on their bills certainly can't be
expected to pay them. How much will fraud cost the carrier? If the charge is
for home-system airtime only, the marginal cost to the carrier of providing
that service is not as high as if toll charges are involved. In the case of
toll charges, the carrier suffers a direct cash loss. The situation is at its
worst when the spoofer pretends to be a roaming user. Most inter-carrier
roaming agreements to date make the user's home carrier (real or spoofed)
responsible for charges, who would then be out hard cash for toll and airtime
charges.
We have not attempted to predict the dollar losses this chicanery might
generate because there isn't enough factual information information for anyone
to guess responsibly. Examination of current estimates of long-distance-toll
fraud should convince the skeptic.
Solutions
The problems we have described are basically of two types. First, the ESN
circuitry in most current mobiles is not tamper-resistant, much less
tamper-proof. Second and more importantly, the determined perpetrator has
complete access to all information necessary for spoofing by listening to the
radio emissions from valid mobiles because the identification information
(ESN/MIN) is not encrypted and remains the same with each transmission.
Manufacturers can mitigate the first problem by constructing mobiles that more
realistically conform to the EIA requirements quoted above. The second
problem is not beyond solution with current technology, either. Well-known
encryption techniques would allow mobiles to identify themselves to the
serving cellular system without transmitting the same digital bit stream each
time. Under this arrangement, an interloper receiving one transmission could
not just retransmit the same pattern and have it work a second time.
An ancillary benefit of encryption is that it would reasonably protect
communications intelligence--the digital portion of each transaction that
identifies who is calling whom when.
The drawback to any such solution is that it requires some re-engineering in
the Mobile-Land Station Compatibility Specification, and thus new software or
hardware for both mobiles and base stations. The complex logistics of
establishing a new standard, implementing it, and retrofitting as much of the
current hardware as possible certainly presents a tough obstacle, complicated
by the need to continue supporting the non-encrypted protocol during a
transition period, possibly forever.
The necessity of solving the problem will, however, become apparent. While we
presently know of no documented cases of cellular fraud, the vulnerability of
the current standards and experience with similar technologies lead us to
conclude that it is inevitable. Failure to take decisive steps promptly will
expose the industry to a far more expensive dilemma. XXX

CELLULAR TELEPHONE PHREAKING PHILE VOL 3 by "The Mad Phone-man"
Now that you have become familiar with the technology of cellular phones
its time to discuss what you can do with a phone right now.
Not every system pays attention to a "Roamer" from outside the system as
closely as they do a local suscriber. In their mad rush to offer cellular as
"universal" service, meaning you can place a call in any cellular city any-
where in North America, they fucked up.
OK, heres the poop...I access say..Cleveland Ohio Cellular 1's Ericcson switch
and tell them by my "NAM" info that im a roamer from NYNEX in New York City.
Cleveland will let me make the call, cause it bills back to NYC my number
of minutes used. If the NYC number is bogus, the call goes thru, and the bill
doesn't go anywhere. They do know the exchange data for NYC, thats on a chart
so ya cant tell em yer...555-1212 or such..you must tell em yer a valid roamer
and the System number (two digits) must match NYC's. This is not too hard to
figgure out, (call some of their stupid sales idiots some time and see what
they will let out of the bag)...so now lets see what else you should know.
OK, the system number for the foreign exchange....Nynex in Buffalo is 56,
Chicago nonwireline is 01, Buffalo Nonwireline is 03, All wirelines are even
numbers all non-wirelines are odd.
OK, first three digits of the mobile number....Nynex Buffalo- 863 xxxx
Buffalo Non-wire 861 xxxx, 690 xxxx.
I am sure it wont take much to figgure out the local numbers for your area
like I said the sales people are fucks and will tell ya anything to
make a sale.
Until the companys get a cellular clearinghouse to validate roamers in real
t{w{e this will work out fine. The prospects of such a clearinghouse are
good after the companys get done with their bitching at each other.
But it may be a while before it becomes routine to look up a roamer. There's
simply too many to look up every time service is wanted.
So, steal a cellphone and his antenna, re-nam it as a roamer and when ya get
it setup, make copies of the info with different suscriber numbers (the
last 4 digits) and make free calls till whenever.
More to come...."The NOVATEL series phones "
Uncracking the Maintenance code
This is probibaly the best radio to use to shut down
a cell site completely, it has secret codes in the ctrl
head that allow you to bypass conventional switching
protocols.

WHATS IN A NAM by The Mad Phone-man
---------------------------------------------------------
Nam stands for "Number Assignment Module" or to the Teckies a PROM
(Programable Read-Only Memory) A blank Nam usualy costs between $1. to
$2.75. Sometimes its more expensive depending on the operating temperature
and packaging specifications.
Two flavors of NAM's are used for cellular. NEC uses the open colector
(Signetics p/n 82S32 or equivalent). All others use the tri-state (Signetics
82S123 or equivalent). Blank Nams are manufactured by Signetics,National
Semiconductor, Monolithic Memorys, Fujitsu, Texas Instruments, and Advanced
Microdevices. Blank Nams can be purchased at your electronic distribuitor's
and many radios come with a blank included.
The NAM contains the subscriber number and lock code, the home system
identification and other system required information. You may wonder how this
info is arranged.
The NAM is organized into 32 rows and 8 columns. It is 32 words of 8 bits
each. (256 bits total) Starting from the top of the NAM (address 00)
you will find the abreviation SIDH, This means "system identification number
home" , a number starting at 0001 assigned by the FCC.
Each market allows two systems. Even for the wire-line and odd for
the non-wireline.
At address 03 we find LU (Local use) on the left and MIN on the right these
areusualy set to 1. Locations with zeros are reserved. Going down the map,
there's MIN1 and MIN2 the subscriber number and the area code respectivly
Dont try to read them from a raw printout of the NAM data, they are scrambled
beond recognition. The reason? The way they are arranged is the way they must
be transmitted to the cellular systems receivers. The programmer does this to
make the radio's job easier.
Next is the station class mark, which identifys the class and power capability
of the phone. The system will treat a handheld (low power) differently than
a standard 3 watt mobile.
IPCH is the inital paging channel. The radio listens for a page on this
channel. Wirelines use 334 and non-wirelines use 333.
ACCOLC (ACCess Overload Class) is designed in throwing off customers in
the event of an overload. Thru neglect this standard has been largely unused.
(A class 15 station is supposed to be police, fire, or military)
Usualy its set to 0 plus the last digit of the phone number to provide random
loading.
PS- Prefered system. This is always 1 in non-wireline and 0 in wireline.
The lock code is about the only thing you can read directly by studying
the NAM data. The "spare" bit must be a 0 if the radio contains a 3 digit code.
Because the number of clicks when you dial 0 on a (dial) phone equals 10
zeros in the lock code are represented by an "A" the hexadecimal equiv of 10.
EE,REP,HA, and HF correspond to end-to-end signaling (DTMF tones possible
you talk) REPeratory dialing (provision for 10 or more numbers in memory)
Horn Alert and hands free. Like all options, they are 1, if turned on and
0 if turned off.
Addresses 13 thru 1D (all these numbers are in hex) are supposed to be used
by radio mfgrs to store option switches. Usualy 13 is used, 14 sometimes and
the rest less often.
Last you will find checksum adjustment and checksum. These numbers are
calculated automaticly after the data has been edited for the NAM. The sum
of all words in the nam plus these last two must equal a number with 0's
in the last two digits. The radio checks this sum and if it isnt correct
the radio assumes the NAM is bad or tampered with. In the case the radio
refuses to operate until a legal NAM is installed.

CELLULAR PHREAKER TYPES
-----------------------
There are two types of cellular phone phreakers. The first type is the one
whos's intrested in scanning cellular phone channels basically to overhear
conversations. The second type is the one who obtains and modifies cellular
equipment so that he can make free phone calls at someone elese's expense.
I. IMPROVED MOBILE TELEPHONE SERVICE
This system that was used prior to cellular phones was the Improved Mobile
Telephone Service (IMTS), which was much easier to scan for.
Most scanner enthusiasts are familiar with this standard mobile phone
system; this system has gone thru little evolution in the past decade in the
U.S. It has remained a considerably limited service. A large metro area may
only have several hundred users, (New York City has about 900 mobile phone
subscribers) dur largely to limitations imposed by spectral overcroeding.
Land mobile commo has seen a 10-12% annual growth rate for the past two
decades. The result is that the 40, 150 and 450 MHZ bands are overcrowded.
Even the utilization of the new 900 MHZ band (with 30-40 times more channels
available than other bands) is a short-lived solution to the problem.

The VHF high-band freqs. are the most popular IMTS channels. If you live
within 25-50 miles of even a moderate sized town, you should have at least
one VHF high-band channel. VHF low-band IMTS is used in rural areas and
those with hilly terrain. UHF IMTS is primarily used in cities where the
VHF channels are crowded. If you live in a major city, expect to have most,
if not all, of these channels available to you.
II. GENERAL CELLULAR INFO
This section is a little boring but it's needed to set a basic foundation
of cellular phone phreaking so that part 2 doesn't sound like all
technicial talk!
The FCC originally estaablished 3 cellular bands. One was given to the local
Bell or Telco, (wireline carrier), one to an independent firm (non-wireline
carrier), and one reserved for future use. Originally there were 666 cellular
freqs or channels. In recent years the FCC has tacked on another 156 freqs
for a total of 832 freqs, and all cellular makers have upgraded their phones
to accomodate the new channels. Some of the new channels appears above the
original 666 while others appear below.
The cellular system cannot know whether or not a cellular phone can be
switched to one of the 156 channels without the phone telling it. This is done
by the Station Class Mark (SCM), which is a 4-bit binary number.
(1) Bit #1 is "0" for 666 and "1" for 832
(2) Bit #2 is "0" for a mobile unit and
"1" for a voice activated transmit.
(That saves batteries on portables.)
(3) Bit #3 and #4 identify the power class
of the phone:
"00" = 3 watts
"01" = 1.2 watts
"10" = 0.6 watts
and "11" is not assigned.
The old traditional scheme for handling cellular traffic is the analog
method or Frequency-Divison Multiple Access (FDMA). How the FDMA works is
that free channels are found and each transmitter is assigned to one of them.
When the call finishes, th echannels are freed up for the next call. Also, as
the two parties become physically closer or more distant as they drive or
travhghhggytel the call may be handed off to other freqs assigned to the new cells
they are in.
Newer proposed schemes include Time-Divison Multiple Acess (TDMA) and Code-
Divison Multiple Acess (CDMA). IN TDMA systems, calls may simultaneously use
the same channels but are interspered between the pauses in the conversation.
Many pauses result not only in the way people normally think and talk but when
one party is talking, the other is listening. With TDMA, the Cellular Phone
Company (CPC) injects small delays in parts of conversations to accommodate
other traffic on that channel. This increases the lenght of the average phone
call, which also increases their profits from it - not to mention the fact
that they can increase there output by the factor of 3 and also then expand
their operation.
CDMA is a system that's been used by military for the past 30+ years. CDMA
appears to basically be a system where conversation are compressed into coded
bundles and then decompressed at the other end.
A Cellular Mobile Telephone (CMT) is one that is installed in a vehicle,
aircraft, watercraft or whatever, as opposed to a transporable or portable
unit.
III. CELLULAR FREQS & CHANNELS
There are 832 cellular phone channels. 416 of these are allocated for the
non-wireline services (Band A), and 416 for the wireline services (Band B).
Each of these channels have two freqs, spaced 45 MHZ apart, that operate in
a full-duplex mode. The lower freq is for the phone unit, while the upper is
for the cell or basesite. Of the 416 channels, 21 are digital data control or
"set up" channels and 395 are voice channels. Channels are numbered 1 thru
1023, and there is a gap from 800 to 990.
Rather than producing a list of 1646 cellular freqs, I have provided the math
eqations that can be used to calculate them. These equations can be programmed
into computers and calculators.
N = Cellular Channel # F = Cellular Freq
B = 0 (mobile), or B = 1 (base)
CELLULAR FREQS from CHANNEL #S:
-------------------------------
F = 825.030 + B*45 + (N-1)*.03
WHERE: n = 1 to 799
F = 824.040 + b*45 + (N-1)*.03
where: N = 991 to 1023
CELLULAR CHANNEL #s from FREQS:
-------------------------------
N = 1 + (F-825.030-B*45)/.03
Where: F > = 825.030 (mobile)
or F > = 870.030 (base)
N = 991 + (F-824.040-B*45)/.03
Where: F < = 825.000 (mobile)
or F < = 870.000 (base)
If the system uses OMNICELLS, as most do, you can readily find all the
channels in a cell if you know just one of them, using tables constructed
from these equations. Band A uses channels 1-333 under the old 666-channel
system. To that have been added 667-716 and 991-1023 under the new 832-channel
system. Band B uses channels from 334-666 under the old system, plus 717-799
under the new system.
IV. CONTROL & VOICE CHANNEL ALLOCATIONS
---------------------------------------
(D=DESIGNATOR, CC=CONTROL CHANNEL, VC=VOICE CHANNEL)
NON-WIRLELINE SERVICES (BAND A)

To summarize how a cellular call is made: A mobile unit wishing to make a
call will go off-hook and then transmit the digital source and destination
codes on a control channel (used to set-up and monitor the call), and are
just strong enough to reach the base station in the local cell. Upon getting
this data, the base, thru its control freq (same channel), validates the
mobile unit.
The base station then fowards a message to the central switching office on
a land line, which in turn sends the paging signal to all cells in search of
the second mobile unit whos number has been dialed. When the destination unit
is finally found, it responds to the paging signal by transmitting an
acknowledgement code to its local base station on a control channel.
The switching center then assigns a pair of unused freqs (called the,
"channel Pair") to each of the unit for actual voice commo to take place.
These channel pairs are not neccesarily the same for the respective cells
that each mobile unit is in. These freqs are also relayed thru the base
stations and to the central switching office.
When a unit moves into another cell, things get very interesting. Upon
entry into another cell, the mobile unit must transmit thru a new base
station. An automatic handoff to the new base station is carried out by
another exchange of data thru the control channel.
Termination of the call is a simple matter. When the call ends,ON-hook
signals are exchanged via the control channels between the mobile unit and
the base station. The voice channels are then cleared.
IV. THE CELL & IT'S STRUCTURE
The cellular phone system uses a "honeycombed" hexagonal cell architure.
Each of the cell types (A-G) differ from each other only in the freqs.
allocated for them. This represents how a cellular system might be laid out.
Cells A and B never share a common border. Neither do B and C, A and G,
etc. Cells that are next to each other are never assigned adjacent freqs.
They always differbu\y at least 60 KHZ. To track a mobile phone as it
changes cells, lets put the mobile in a B cell. When the mobile switches
freqs. you know that it could only go to a D, E, F, or G cell because A and
C have adjacent freqs. The two tables below will help you determine which
Channel cell can go next to each other. You can contact your local cellular
phone company and see if they have any maps of the cell available in your
area (please get a copy for us also). They're not obligated to give you maps
but it's worth the try.
ADJACENT CELLS
--------------
Cell Adjacent cells
A C,D,E,F
B D,E,F,G
C E,F,G,A
D F,G,A,B
E G,A,B,C
F A,B,C,D
G B,C,D,E
The only fundamental point of cellular technology actually agreed upon to
date is that a given service area will be divided into identical adjacent
cells with no overlaps and no gaps. The hexagon is the standard cell
patteren. At the center of an individual cell is a base station which is
conected via land line to a local mobile phone switching office. Certain
freq bands are assigned to certain cells, but not shared with adjacent cells
to avoid mutual interference.
In 1979, AT&T began test marketing its version of a cellular phone system
in Chicago. This system is call the Advanced Mobile Phone System (AMPS)
Some 2100 sq miles of the metro Chicago area are divided into 10 cells to
serve about 2000 customers. Full duplex is possible by using a pair of one
way channels separated by 45 MHZ to connect the mobile units with the base
stations. The RF range is 825-890 MHZ and normal narrow band FM is used to
transmit voice. Hand-off to adjacent cells is accomplished by monitoring
signal strengths. When the central switching office determines that a new
base station receives the mobile signal better than the previous one, the
switching office signals thru the voice channel for the mobile phone to
switch to a new channel. Commo distruption thru the switching process is
typically 50 milliseconds.
As with IMTS, there is the possibility of phreaking calls with IMTS or AMPS
simply by monitoring the control channels since they are in dial pulse form.
After you have a nice set of numbers, you will neeed a transmitter of
sufficient strenght to reach the base station (unlicenced transmitter of
course!). Duhh
Many regulatory and implementation issues remain unsolved. Modulation issues
are the biggest problem to be solved. Single sideband AM, narrow band FM,
digital and spread-spectrum techniques are all being considered. If you have
any info that may be able to break this down for fellow hackers/phreaks
please leave me mail.
V. EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
Most mobile phones have two primary pieces of equipment. These are the
transceiver (transmitter-receiver pair) and the control head.
The transceiver is usually a metal box with three connectors. They usually
contain two circuit boards. One is the transceiver unit itself, and the other
is a logic board consisting of a uP, ADC and DAC, and control logic. The
transceiver is usually mounted in the trunk or sometimes under the hood, and
is connected to both the ignition switch and car battery. A control/audio
(shielded) links the equipment together.
The control head is a touch-tone phone handset with the extended keypad,
alphanumeric display and controls (i.e. mike, volume). Usually there is a
separate speaker installed in the cradle for on-hook dialing, call progress
monitoring and speakerphone operation. If the CMT has a speaker phone option
a small mike is usually mounted to the sun visor. Some cellular phones are
voice-activated. If battery-operated, this saves the battery and also makes
answering the phone easier. The control head and cradle assembly is usually
bolted to the hump between the two front seats for security purposes.
Most early CMT's use the AMPS bus (developed by AT&T) which uses a system
of 36 wires in a rather bulky and stiff control/audio cable. Some makers now
use their own bus, such as Novatel's serial bus, which specifies a thin cable
consisting of a few wires, and is much easier to install and dependable to
use. In almost all cases, a CMT is powered by regulated 12 volts from standard
13.8 volt car battery. At least 5 amps (continuous) is required.
Mobile cellular antennas are usually short (less than one foot long),
vertically-mounted stiff wire with a few turns in the middle that acts as a
phasing coil in a 5/8-wave configuration. The antenna is generally mounted
either thru a hole in the roof or at the top of the rear winshield using
silicone rubber cement with conductive plates on both sides to pass the RF
thru the glass (some RF losses result from this method but you don't have to
maim your vehcle). A 50 ohm coax cable (ex: RG-58/U) links the antenna to the
transceiver with a male TNC type UHF connector. A ceramic duplexer permits
the transmitter and receiver to share the same antennas at the same time.
CMT roof-mounted monopole antennas are designed to work with the ground
plane (ie: the vehicle's body, if metal). However, for fixed (ie: home-base)
use, an "extended-feed" or voltage-fed coaxial antenna (requires no ground
plane) can be used. A capped PVC pipe makes an ideal rooftop housing for
this type of antenna-both weatherprofing and concealing it. Note that altho
cellular systems are designed for inefficient antennas, for fixed use it is
preferred that you use the best antenna you can get.
Interfacing audio devices (ex Blue Boxes, other tone generators) to a CMT
can be done by coupling the device's output thru an audio coupling
transformer wired across the control head's mike lines. A 600-ohm audio
coupling antenna is availble from Radio Shack (273-1374). Be sure to DC
isolate the phon circuity by wiring the transformer in series with a
non-polarized capacitor of at least 1.0 uF and 50 volts. If you can locate
the bus that carries the audio, then coupling across it is preferred.
An acoustic modem can be coupled to a CMT eithrer thru the mouthpiece or by
connecting the mike and speaker wires to those in the control head or bus
lines. Any direct-connect devices (ex: answering machines, modems, standard
phones, etc) can be connected to a CMT thru the AB1X cellular interface
made by : Morrison & Dempsey (818 993-0195). This expensive device is
basically a 1-line PBX that connects between the transceiver and control
head and provides an RJ-11C (quick-connect) jack that accepts any direct-
connect phone accessory. It recognizes both touch-tone and pulse dialing,
provides the ringing voltage and generates dial and busy tones as needed.
VI. GENERAL PHREAKING INFO
----------------------
Some Definitions:
* Control Channel: The channel the phone and cell base first communicate on.
* Reverse Control Channel: The opposite freq, 45MHZ lower then the control
channel. This is where the mobile unit is.
* Voice Channel: The channel you are assigned by the switch to start the call
after the exchange of suscriber data.
* Revese Voice Channel: Again 45 MHZ lower.
* Switch: The computer that places the calls, and takes and receiver data
from the subcriber or from the PSTN. (Pubic Swithced Telephone Network). That
should get things started. A suscriber picks up his handset to place a call.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
---------------------
The following questions & answers were taken from THE SOURCE BBS a.k.a.
THE NEW YORK HACK EXCHANGE
BCOM> I want to get into cellular phone phreaking but I dont know anything so
I'm depending on you guys to help me out from the VERY basics!
What is cellular; a cellular phone?
RAVEN> A 800 MHZ radiotelephone, running 3 watts, with the ability to change
channel on computer command from the central swith. This happens when
you travel thru the service area and your signal becomes stronger at a
neighboring cell base station.
BCOM> They are marketed as a high security device with no possibility of
anyone making a phoney call & charging it to someone else, how can it
be phreaked?
RAVEN> An understanding of the phone revels that every time a call is made,
the phone number, an electronic serial number, and oother data is sent
to the switch. If you were to listen to the opposite side of the
control channel as the cell is being "set up" you would hear this data
being transmitted to the switdch in NRZ (Non-Return to Zero) code.
All one has to do, is record this info and program the bogus phone to
these params, and then a free call is possible thru the switch.
BCOM> Has anyone done this yet?
RAVEN> HELL YEA! about 6 months after the first cellular phone system was
"turned-up", a technician programmed a Panasonic telephone with a
NEC ESN (Electronic Serial Number). And there have been many other
cases since then. With the popular ROM programmers avaible today,
almost any NAM (NUmeric Assignment Module) can be duplicated or
copied with changes. (The NAM is the heart of the billing info and
contains the phone number but not the ESN) The most popular integrated
circut for NAMs is the 74LS123.
BCOM> Sounds like a lot of trouble, is there easier ways to get service?
RAVEN> SURE, the cellphone companies have been their own downfall, In an
effort to market their wares as a universal service. Nobody can tell
if a phone from another city (that has a roaming agreement) is valid
until its too late. The only thing they could do after finding out is
block any call with bad ESN because as we know, the phone number is
easy to change, but the ESN is not.
So here's a likely scenario====> A roamer identifying itself as a number
from a Chicago non-wireline accesses a cellular system in Dallas. An operator
may intervene but you can usually BS or "Social Engineer" them as long as
you know the data you have programmed into your phone. Then you make calls
just like your a local user. If your found out, you change the number to
another, and see if that works.
The phone is locked onto the strongest control channel in the area by a
computerized scanner in the phone. As the user drives thru the service, a
computer constantly picks out the strongest control channel and stays on it,
altho more than one cell site can actually be herd. The subcriber enters
the number to call on the keypad, and presses the "send" button.
At this time the following data is transmitted to the cell site by the
mobile. The callers ESN, his home system number (two digits), his mobile's
area code and phone number, and the called number. The cellular switch now
picks up an outgoing line, places the call for him and tells the mobile unit
to switch to a voice channel. The two ends are linked in the central switch
and the two parties are connected up in about 3 seconds.
I have purposely over-simplified the whole process to point out the moment
of truth. The mobile's ESN and phone number and data in the switch must match
or no go. This is required for billing purposes. If one had the ESN and the
mobile phone number, he could then calll anytime anyplace without fear of a
trace - let alone a bill. The ideal setup would let you listen to the reverse
control channel, record and display herd working numbers and ESN's, and
recall them as one needs them to make calls.
This would be it but we are not quite there yet. But some hard work has
already been done for us. All the aforementioned codes are sent in hex, in
NRZ code (phancy term for phase shift keying), but the phone already has, for
example, a NRZ receiver and transmitter built right into it. All that has to
be done is to have a receiver on the reverse control channel, recover the
other users data and save it or at least print it out.
The mobile radio data book show some good technical info on the systems used
and chip part numbers for the NRZ stuff. For example, at least one cellular
phone maker uses the 8085 chip for the control head functions - a popular
and well understood chip by many.
Most cellular phones include a crude password system to keep unauthorized
users from using the phone - however, dealers often set the password (usually
a 3 to 5 digit code) to the last four digits of the mobile phone or there
home phone. If you can find it somewhere on the phone then your in luck!!
If you can't find it then I guess you gotta hack it. It souldn't be that
hard since most people aren't smart enogh to use something besides "11111",
"12345", or whatever, it will be like Hacking a VMB.
If you want to modify the chip set in the cellular phoneyou got, there are
two chips (of course this depends on the model and maker - your may be
different) that will need to be changed - one installed by the maker usually
eepoxied in with the phone's ID number, and one installed by the dealer with
the phone number, and possible the security code. To do this youll obviously
need an EPROM (Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) burner, as well as the
same type of chips used in the phone (or a friendly & unscruplus dealer!).
As to recording the numbers of other mobile phone customers and using them;
as far as I know it is quite possible, if you got the equipment to record and
decode it. The cellular system would possibly freak out if two phones (with
valid ID/phone number combinations) were both present in the network at once,
but it remains to be seen what will happen.
The MIN is the Mobile Identification Number (includes the phone number, and
it is stored on the NAM ROM). Stolen and spoofed ESN's and MINs are good for
about a month. Once a bad MIN is revealed, the legit user's MIN is changed
by the Mobile Telephone Switching Office (MTSO) and they arrange for a new
NAM ROM to be installed in the users legit unit. Of course MTSO keeps a
database of all legit,illegit and deadbeat MIN/ESN pairs. However, the MTSO
will allow a illegit MIN/ESN pair to continue to function beyond its
discovery in hopes of discovering who the phreaks are.
One of the properties of cellular phone system is that the transmitter
freqs may be changed or "hopped" in the constant effort to allocate freqs.
Because of freq. hopping it is very difficult triangulate a CMT using
standard RF directional finding methods. It is known that a directional
antenna randomly aimed at cellsite repeaters will confuse directional finding
equipment being used by them that is synced to their freq. hopping scheme.
ROAMING
Since cellular technology often results in physical seperation between the
caller and-or callled party from landlines, because it offers thousands of
lines to choose from, because freq. hopping occurs, and because the caller
and-or called party can be rapidly moving from one location to another,
cellular phnes are the safest form of phreaking. "Roaming" is one form of
cellular phreaking.
Roaming occurs when a CMT is used in a cellular system other than the one
indicated in the NAMs SID. This is called "ROAMmode", and the ROAM indicator
on the control head will light. A CMT can roam into any system its home CPC
has a roaming agreement with, and most CPC's now have roam agreements with
each other. Not every system pays attention to a "Roamer" from outside the
system as cosely as they do a local suscriber. In their mad rush to offer
cellular as "universal" service, they screwed up. If there's no roam
agreement, the MTSO will transmit a recorded message to the CMT with some
instructions to call the CPC, and gives his name ,MIN,ESN and credit card
number. All roamed calls will then be completed by the MTSO and billed to the
credit card account. This procedure is becomming less common as more roam
agreements are made.
Usually, CPC can only determine if a roamer came from a system with which
it has a roaming agreement - nit the creditworthiness of the roamer.
Consequently, many CPCs have been ripped-off by roamers who've been denied
service on their home system because they are deadbeats. Once the home CPC
is billed for the roaming services provided by the remote CPC to the phreaker
or deadbeat, it will notify the same to add that ESN/MIN pair to their
MTSO's "negative verify" file to prevent future abuses.
Several independent firms are establishing systems software and data
networks to allow POSITIVE ROAMER VERIFICATION (PRV), which allow near real
time roamer validation bt sharing data between CPCs. Until PRV becomes
universal, even bogus ESNs and MINs can roam if they follow the standard
format, alto some CPCs are sharing roam data on a limited basis to prevent
this. Even with PRV, ESN/MIN pairs that are spoofed to match valid accounts
will be accepted both by thier home CPC and roamed CPCs, until the legit
customer complains about the calls he didn't make. And even without PRV,
some CPCs automatically share ESN and MIN data. This frequently occurs
between the CPCs in major cities and those in their bedroom communities.
To call a roaming CMT, the caller must know which system that unit is in,
which can be a real trick since he may be on the road at the time. He then
calls the CPC's roaming number. Roaming numbers vary but usually are in the
phone number format (with area code, with the last four digits being
"ROAM", and with the 3 middle digits being the remote CPC's exchange).
When that number is called, a dial or ready tone is returned, after
which the roaming CMT's full MIN is entered in Touch-Tone. After several
seconds, the CMT will ring or the caller will hear a recording stating
that the roaming CMT is out of range or busy. Telocator Publications
(202) 467-4770 publishes a nationwide roaming directory for travellers
with celluar phones.
For example: I access the Cleveland Ohio Cellular 1's Ericcson switch
and I tell them by my NAM INfo that I'm a roamer from NYNEX in New York
City. Cleveland will let me make the call, bacause it bills back to NYC
for the number of minutes I use. If the NYC number is bogus , the call
goes thru anyway, and the bill doesn't go anywhere. They do know the
exchange data for NYC (that's on a chart) so you can't tell them a wrong
system number (two digits) but one that a valid roamer would have from
his area. This is not too hard to figure out, call some of their stupid
sales idiots some time and see what they let out of the bag.
The system number for the foreign exchange, NYNEX in Buffalo is 56,
Chicago nonwireline is 01, and Buffalo nonwireline is 03. All wirelines
are even numbers and all nonwirelines are odd. The first three digits
of the mobile number: NYNEX Buffalo 863-XXXX. Buffalo Non-wirelines
are 861-XXXX and 690-XXXX.
You dont have to be a rocket scientist to figure out the local numbers
for your area, again by conning the sales people. Until the CPC's get a
cellular clearinghouse to validate roamers in real time, this method
will work out fine. It will be awhile before it becomes routine to look
up a roamer. There's simply to many to look up every time service is
wanted. And this problem is increasing because of the expanding use of
cellular phones.
If a cellular phone and its antenna happen to fall into your hands, you
could re-nam it as a roamer and when you get it setup, make copies of the
info with different suscriber numbers (the last 4 digits) and make free
calls as long as you can.
THe Novatel series phone a re probaly the best radios to use to shut down
a cell site completely as it has secret codes in the control head that
allow you to bypass conventional switching protocols.

"Oh course, our system guarantees a fast, clear secure connection"
-Cell 1 sales dweeb
Well due to some small demand, heres the first issue of mag
dedicated to exploring the ins and outs of Cell Phones, I'll try to
be as simple as I can and wont dwell with some of the irrelevancies
of the operations of the cells, just basically genuine hacking
information, some which I will gather from tech manuals and actual
testing, now granted I'm just a hobbyist, and it is not my intent
for this information to be used in any illegal manner, especially
for any persons attempting to defraud any cellular company, and
any other of the illegal shit that goes along with that. I am
looking for any authors, (cuz I sure as shit don't know
everything!) to contribute to this spread of forbidden knowledge.
I intend to send out this mag at least quarterly or as any information
of great importance is presented , so the size of these texts may vary
greatly. What I really like to include is some back door test modes
for *any phonez, especially the ESN modification type.
I would like to say thanx to everyone who encouraged me and
got me started in this great form of technology. And I will strive
to keep the information as correct as possible, but 'member I cant
test everything, if it sounds logical and can be done, then I'll
present it here for your approval, if ya have any text ya want to
send , or any comments, please email me at TECHMAN@ANON.PENET.FI
(until I get a real internet account!). Enjoy *
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I. The Software Question (for popular Motorola fones)
The most popular fone among the hackers is obviously the
motorola mircrotac of "flip fone" (which is characteristic of its
microphone flipping mechanism). Early in the cell game a ware was
released by Cellular Press (a.k.a Spy Supply) which could mod all
of the motorolas using a simple made cable and a PC. Well as time
went on and motorola wanted to add more features and better
handling of the hardware, they started to change they're firmware
of the fones to accommodate the changes, along with the changes was
an inability of the software to modify the ESN data of these fones,
thus other ways had to be implemented , one such method was a
firmware replacement, this was a easy chore for the Bags and totes,
but a pain in the ass for the flips, the bags and totes used the
regular DIP package 27c512 Prom, while the equivalent on the flips
was in a plcc surface mount package, which could only be removed
with real skill, and some expensive soldering equipment, not to
mention reprogramming a Eprom / prom of the same type , and then
replacing it, now anyone (like me) who has popped open one of those
flip fones know how crappy that method is, you risk destroying your
fone, and losing some of the features. Well HTH came out with
a "trick clip" which consisted of a plcc test socket, and a
reprogrammed chip. This procedure still required you to disable the
firmware on yer fone , by cutting a trace (*ouch) sticking the
trick clip in the chip, jumpering a pin on the socket to a place on
the board, and then attaching your cable and using the old ware.
Still this was a tedious, expensive (hth wanted $295 for the clip)
and dangerous procedure. And sometimes with certain fone revs this
didn't work. As time went on and the demand grew to do these phones
software solutions began to emerge, one was called TRANS-2, and/or
MPC which was a package available from C.G.C (California Grapevine
Communications), this package was also available from a company
called Cellsoft, both houses sold the ware for a ridiculous $700
and protected it copyright infringement by making it dependant on
a dongle to operate. Well after talking to C.G.C about the software
and basically getting the brushoff from Cellsoft (they may be
another Spy supply house), the MPC / Trans-2 ware was describe as
"horrible and buggy" by greg at C.G.C (the guy with the british
accent). Well the package was purchased and now is being
distributed in its uncraked state to various crak groups for repair
;), but this has either proved a challenge for the guys, or they
have been reduced to money grubbers by re-selling the packages, in
my opinion these are the lowest of lamers, theres nothing worse
than a thief of thieves.
As a point of ID, if you can get your hands on the old style
flip fone (which were usually tan in color and had a membrane
keyboard), these are ready modible , having a firmware rev up to
9012.
Now theres one last ware out there that's supposed to the be
the most reliable of ones to mod the new fones (up to 9340) is
called AMPS/G2. This is now being sold by C.G.C for $700 and is now
floating around the internet waiting to be cracked. (sorry greg,
but your price is ridiculous). I recently Emailed DrDamien for some
new info on moding the new stuff, and found out from him that some
places are selling firmware/cable kits for $50 which is not a big
bite at all, now he didn't go into detail on what they were,
whether they were the old firmware switch (mentioned above, which
in some instances caused yer fone to power up saying "loaner" and
disabling all your cool functions, like storage and other shit) or
the firms that take advantage of the "Identity Transfer" function
of theses fones, which simply put xfers your fones NAM/ESN data to
another fone by executing a #66 and #69 (see the MOTCODEZ.TXT file)
on each fone, one is called a LOADER fone (contains the new info)
and the TARGET fone (the fone to get the goodies), now this is
proven to work with ALL motorola fones even the new 94F firmware
series.
C.G.C offers a package consisting of a LOADER fone with special
firmware, plus a cable with a switch for $995. From what I've heard
this is a nice setup, but way too expensive, remember the true
idea of cloning tries to *SAVE the user money by having two lines
on one bill, and $1000 bux is just not cost effective now, maybe
over a few years perhaps. But you know how the underground works,
as soon as someone gets one, they'll copy the firmware , dissect
the cable and u/l the info to yer local site. (I'm waiting to see
it!)
None the less there are some (expensive) options for those who
wish to master the new motorola fones, its just a matter of what
purpose and how often will you use it, now for those who wish to
open your own cell-fone cloning house , good luck, laws are
developing as you read this to outlaw that, (you didn't honestly
think that they would continue to allow that), and if you can
justify spending the $1000 for the loader fone (the most reliable
way to date), then more power to ya, as for us regular hackers, who
want to learn more about these , then that's outrageous. You'll be
better off getting one legit. (*shudder) (tm).
* And Also note, the roaming scam is almost non existent, this
method consisted of changing the ESN/MIN to a bogus out-of-state
number, then making a call, since the subscriber info could not be
validate real-time, the first call would go through, but subsequent
calls would be blocked until this information was changed again,
thus someone developed a "tumbler fone" which changed this info to
some random quotient, before each call was place, this drove the
Cellcos and Fedz nutz, so they just simply forward your call to a
special cell provider who lets you make your call using a Credit
card or do it collect, usually at a ridiculous rate i.e. $2.00 per
minute. (some allow calling cards)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
II. What does the Cellwarez do?
Cell Software Review (just the old stuff that's out, cuz there is
some confusion on what can do what.)
Cellsoft.zip ... This is original stuff that was sold as
package from Cellular press, A.K.A Spy
Supply, it was priced at $500 and now can
be yanked from any good H/P board, it
contains the warez to do the Motorolas
Panasonics and NEC p300/301/200/201/400.
Newphones.arj .. This package is the Shareware (?!?!) release
of Cellular press's moding ware. It contains
all the files aforementioned plus wiring
diagrams, and some warez to do NEC9A/11A
NOKIAs , TANDY, R-SHACKS, and MITSUS MT3/MT4
interesting note about this one is that it
asks you to upload to various bbs's and then
call them (Robert Carp) and Narc em out to
receive registration (?!?) and more info on
their services, maybe they feel guilty for
screwing all those folks around. * Also
contains ROMS from the old firms of MOT
phones for the ESN replacement technique.
UNICHIP.ZIP .. This is another package containing moding
wares for the MOTS/NEC/PANS, but this one
also contains new software for doing the
p400/401/600/601 firms before and after
V.34, offered by unisoft. Also has Wiring
Digrams for building the cables
UNICELL.EXE .. Another package similar to the unichip.zip
except this one contains a better Checksum
calculator for programming the 9346-16911
eprom, and does a larger variety of fones
(Sony/Phillips/Nokia/Cleartone/Novatel/mobira)
A-Z.zip .. C.G.Cs intensive programming guide for 110 +
cellfones, also has some (little) information
on back door test modes and other goodies,
such as a definition file and a FAQ on
ESN emulation.
Cellmon.zip .. Now this one is interesting, it seems to want
to interface with a MOT Mircotac, and
supposedly, scans the channels to monitor the
the frequency, this also may be a simple form
of a DDi, (digital Data interface) which is
used to read the RCC (reverse control
channel). *The RCC is a channel the fone uses
to communicate with the tower, ESN/MIN/SCM
data is xfered through this chan.
Honorable Mention : P3tst001.txt, a text on the test commands for
the NEC p300/301/600/601/400/401 phones,
includes instructions for ESN modification :
NOVATEL1.TXT, this file has information for
moding the novatel 83XX series fone, including
changing the ESN info, (*warning, can only be
done 3 times), OKITEST.TXT , this is a listing
of test commands for the OKI series fones,
which is considered to be a "HACKER PHONE!"
MOTCODEZ.TXT, is a file which has the current
test mode commands on motorola phones.
-------------------------------------------------------------
III. Current Mod-ible fones
This is a short list of the phones that can currently be
altered. (ESN wise that is) If I come short on this, please
by all means let me know what fones can be altered and how, but
this list is comprised mostly of the ones I moded personally.
The purpose of this list is for you who are out trying to buy
a cellfone, and wanna know which ones can be used. Theres a
shitload of fones out there that *cant be modified currently,
the big ones are the Audiovoxs (new), judging by the programming
and ic's in the phone, Audiovox's engineers were overly security
conscious, but as you well know this may and will change as new
ways of exploiting technology becomes evident.
Currently Modiable HOW
================== ===
Motorola BAG* Cable, Software
Motorola FLIP* Cable, Software
Motorola Brick* Cable, Software
Panasonic D,E,F,G,H Cable, Software
NEC p300/301/600/601/400/401 Cable, Software
Nokia (all) Chip Removal
NEC 11/9a Cable, Software
Novatel (83XX) Keyboard/ROM
Mitsubishi MT3/MT4 Chip Removal
Sony CM-H333 Chip Removal
Phillips PR-92 Chip Removal
Nokia 100/190 Chip Removal
BT / Ivory Chip Removal
Novatel 4400 Chip Removal
Cityman 100 Chip Removal
Ameritech (motorola) Cable, software
NOTES: * indicates that new software or a new method is needed to
mod fones with firmware revs higher that 9122. Chip removal refers
to removing the 9346-16911 serial eprom, and programming with the
Unichip and Unicell software
---------------------------------------------------------------
IV. How to get ESN/MIN pairs, the magic stuff
Now Methods for obtaining this valuable information varies,
I'll give you a few personal examples on how I was able to get some
pairs. One method (which was lo-risk and cheap) was to do the
old infamous trashing, I cased out a local cell provider branch
office, found out what were there days/hours of operation, snooped
and asked some questions on how they deal with fraud, (social
engineering skills were needed of course), to which the only answer
they could provide was "oh , well if you didn't make the calls, we
will not require you to pay for them, and we'll change your number"
which gave me two good pieces of information, 1 they just chalk it
up to loss , to appease the customers, and two, they don't give a
fuck in finding out who made the calls. Now that was good to hear,
so on the day before trash collection I simply parked my car by the
dumpster, (flashlight in my pocket), and simulated taking a leak
behind the trash bin, quickly I open the side access panel, and did
a quick search, I found 3 bags with words (cellular, contract)
clearly visible in the bags, I grabbed them, look around, and
tossed them in the trunk. After getting them to my garage (it was
about 11:30 pm too) and sifting through the coffee filters, and
salad containers, I walked off with about 100 pairs. (written
contract info which is discarded after its entered into the
computer). The cons to this is that you got a lot of explaining to
do to the cops if they see you toss some bags of trash in your
trunk, and some states have laws governing trash, to the effect of
the trash being the property of the company until its collected by
a designated trash refuge agency, non-the-less , this works for
some places, Cell-1's here, have a company called 'Document
Services' which pick up their trash, and shred the ESN/personal
papers and contracts, thus this is ineffective in some areas.
Another more expensive way, is to obtain a device called a
DDi, Digital Data Interface, this thing comes in various formats
from the more expensive stand-alone box, to a device which
interfaces with your 800 mhz capable scanner and a PC, the cheapest
standalone I seen was $1295, also I saw a kit for a simple one for
about 1-$200, this is the safest way do get pairs, simply make the
device mobile, and sit in a busy traffic area (freeway overpass)
and collect all the data you need.
These are just a couple of examples on obtaining the 'magic
numbers' , some other ways (trading, inside help) does work too,
but are sometimes not effective, try to be creative, the Fedz know
about the trashing from back to the Captain Crunch days, the DDi
seems to be the logical choice for snarfing.
----------------------------------------------------------------
V. Ways of Detection
Well this is another concern that the astute phreaker must
know is how to avoid detection, what you must remember is that the
only way you can be physically traced, is by having the phone
powered up and registered within the system, and all the cops have
to do is some rudimentary triangulation and you're snagged, as long
as you remember some basic rules, you can slim your chances of
being discovered.
1. Never reveal your location or describe yourself over the
airwaves, this is a real common mistake, just a simple as you
turning on a scanner to monitor conversations, the cops have even
more sophisticated equipment to do so. A cell phreaker once told me
to just pretend you're in a crowed room when you speak on the fone,
so the information that you relay should not be something that you
would want that crowd to hear. You are just handing yourself over
when you make this mistake.
2. Never leave your phone powered up or battery pack left on,
this reason is simple, you turn the phone on, you're registered in
the system, every phone transmits the ESN/MIN/SCM data to the cell
tower to become registered so that when you place a call , the fone
will be ready, some phones (motorola bags/totes/installed) transmit
this data, even when its powered off, only the power adapter or
battery need be connected, the effect varies when 2 fones with the
same ESN/MIN/SCM data are registered at the same time, but most of
the time a Fraud Flag goes off, and your calls (the #'s) are
recorded or the system denies you access to place calls.
3. Never give any personal information out over the phone,
this is a relative mistake as mentioned in #1, except this is
mainly geared towards those, who like to make reservations at a
restaurant or order a pizza, all the fedz need do is call the
number and asked who placed a order at such and such day and time
(these places usually keep a record of this), and wham, youre
busted.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
VI. Internet Sites to get Cell info
Here is a list of Anon. FTP sites where Cell info is stored,
I've checked them all in the past month, and they're still up.
SPY.ORG /pub/SECURITY/SECTEC/cellular
Corrupt.Sekurity.com /pub/phones and /pub/incoming
l0pht.com /pub/blackcrwl/cell
src.doc.ic.ac.uk
wiretap.spies.com
ftp.winternet.com /users/craigb
quartz.rutgers.edu
Ftp.Netcom.com
siam.unibe.ch
ftp.eff.org
ftp.cic.net
If you got any more, don't hold out, email em, or upload em to
me at the above email address.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
VII. Last notes
Well this will end my first issue of the Cellhackers journal,
I need anyone who knows anything, and would like to contribute ,
please email me or contact me on the stargate BBS, you can find the
# and nup on quality boardz, or chat with me on the IRC, I use the
handle TECHMAN / CELLFONE / or MICROTAC, usually in the #STARGATE
, #CELLULAR, #PHREAK channels, the next issue we'll get into some
more ESN moding Back Doors on some popular phones, and I'm trying
to get some generic plans for building a cheap DDi, a flip fone and
scanner (moded to receive 800 mhz cell freqs) will be needed. I'll
try to have the next issue out in JAN, it'll prob be right after
new years, hack on gentlemen.
Some Greetz go out to:
DrDamien for Breaking the Barrier on writing about Cell
Phreaking, a lot of shit here I learned from you.

Cellular Carrier SID BID Listings by Company
This data was extracted from two listings sent to me by the Chicago Cellular
One, dated 23MAR90 and 23MAY90. There was no indication of copyright notice or
other restriction in the telephone conversation when I requested the data or in
the listings. One listing was in alphabetical order by city name. The other
listing was in numerical order by SID major and BID minor.
I expect that there are errors in this data. I detected and corrected several
typographical errors in my data entry and discovered several mismatches between
the two listings. Please, send corrections and expansions to me by e-mail.
The columns of this plain text database are separated by colon (:) characters.
The columns are, from left to right:
1: the SID, system Identification number,
(Note: odd numbers are "A" or non-wireline carriers; and,
even numbers are "B" or wireline carriers.)
2: the BID, the billing identification number, or = if same as the SID,
3: a City in the area of the service (multiple cities may be listed),
4: the Postal Code for the State or Province of the City in column 3,
(Note: BH was used for Bahamas.)
5: the telephone company name,
6: a customer service number for the area indicated by columns 3 and 4,
7: the clearing house that handles roamers' billing records.
The data was presented in this form to reduce the size of the database for
transmission. You may want to use the enclosed scripts and awk programs to
format the database for easier viewing.

A CELLULAR COMMUNICATIONS PRIMER
By Damien Thorn
INTRODUCTION
The specific technologies involved in the cellular network are highly complex, comprised of a
vast array of computers, control equipment, transceivers, multiplexers, switching equipment, etc.
The theory and principals of operation which we'll cover here are much easier to comprehend.
With this article you'll learn the basics, and how you can profit from that understanding. Next
month I'll show you how to reprogram a cellular phone through the keypad.
Cellular telephones are viewed by most users as simply another phone, albeit cordless. A cellular
mobile telephone (CMT) emulates a landline set so credibly that the deepest technical concern
for most people is remembering how to make the phone dial a frequently called number stored
in memory. The comfort and familiarity of the phones are by design, I'm sure. To a public that
has difficulty programming a VCR, the reality of cellular technology would be overwhelming and
perhaps somewhat frightening.
Cellular phones are little more than low power transceivers capable of transmitting and receiving
a total of 666 or 832 frequencies, depending on the model. They operate in a full-duplex mode,
transmitting the mobile side of the conversation on one frequency while simultaneously receiving
the other side from the cell site on a different frequency. A basic multi-channel two-way radio
under the control of some powerful software. The network itself is where the engineering genius
becomes apparent.
OVERVIEW OF NETWORK ARCHITECTURE
The cellular network consists of a honeycomb of transceiver sites (towers), each capable of
handling up to about 40 separate cellular calls. Each site has an effective range of 3-5 miles.
The term "cell" is derived from the size and shape of the site's coverage pattern, and the
arrangement of the cell sites. The various sites in each city are all linked together through the
mobile telephone switching office (MTSO). The MTSO not only coordinates the use of the radio
spectrum, but utilizes computers to authenticate a subscriber's phone before making the
connection and maintains billing records. The MTSO also serves as the interface point with the
landline telephone company for cellular calls.
As you drive through town the MTSO monitors the relative signal strength of the transmission
from your phone. When the signal strength becomes higher in any cell other than the one
handling your call, the MTSO uses a frequency known as a control channel to transmit data to
your phone telling it to switch frequencies and lock into another cell. This "hand off" from one
cell to another happens so quickly that most people never notice the transition from one
frequency or cell site to the next. This is noteworthy because the hand off required your phone
to change transmit and receive frequencies, while the cellular network not only reestablished
radio contact with you on another transceiver, but rerouted the landline audio to that cell site as
well.
The cell site is generally located in the center of the cell. This is where the antennas,
transceivers and control equipment are located that serve that cell. Due to the limited coverage
area of the cell, these cell sites are located a maximum of ten miles from each other to provide
uninterrupted coverage without "dead spots" - areas where your phone cannot operate because
you're out of range of a cell.
Since most markets are served by two cellular service providers who do not share cell sites, there
are actually twice as many cells (and cell sites) than would be required for one provider to supply
service. In the past I've worked at radio station transmitter sites that leased tower space to
cellular companies, but I never realized how prolific these cell sites were until I studied the
technology and looked closely at the antennas around me. Where ever your phone works, you're
within three to five (line of sight) miles of a at least two sites, and probably more since coverage
areas overlap. The adjacent cells never share common frequencies to avoid interference.
Cellular sites come in different forms. In congested metropolitan areas the transceiver sites may
be located on taller buildings. In other areas they are located on stand alone towers. Towers can
either be built by the cellular carrier for their exclusive use, or the cellular antenna array can
share a common tower (an "antenna farm") with other radio and broadcast services.
No matter where the antennas are located, they can be recognized easily by their unique three-
sided configuration. Refer to the accompanying photos for examples of two common types of
cellular arrays. When I asked both cellular carriers based in Sacramento to disclose the location
of their cell sites in my area, they refused. The customer relations representatives indicated the
information was confidential - almost a trade secret. I left voice mail messages with their
engineers describing the information I wanted. Neither even returned my call.
The implications of this guarded attitude are interesting, and more than a bit disconcerting.
Fortunately the FCC maintains public records on all transmitter licensees, and the California
Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) requires cellular companies to file abstracts with them
containing the information I wanted. The CPUC even told me the name of the person who
would be available to help me dig through the abstracts and make photocopies. I didn't bother,
but it was nice to see my tax dollars at work for my benefit.
OPERATING FREQUENCIES
The frequency spectrum allocated by the FCC used by the phone to transmit voice and data to
the cell site is 824.000 - 849.000 Mhz. The tower transmits to the phone on a spectrum of the
same size from 869.000 to 894.000 Mhz. The cellular frequencies are narrow band FM, all
spaced 30 Khz apart, so determining every specific frequency is a matter of simple addition.
For example, knowing the lowest frequency used by a cell site is 869.000 Mhz, simply increment
upward in 30 Khz steps: 869.030, 869.060, 869.090, 869.120, etc. The frequencies used by the
phone for transmission to the tower increment upward the same way from 824.000 Mhz.
The frequencies are paired so that the phone is always transmitting to the tower on a frequency
exactly 45 Mhz lower than the frequency the tower is using. If the landline (base) side of the
call is transmitted to the phone on 887.940 Mhz, then the phone is simultaneously transmitting
the mobile side of the call back to the cell site on 842.940 Mhz.
Cell sites generally transmit the mobile side of the call at reduced gain back to the cellular phone
along with the audio from the landline side of the call. This can be intentional, as in the "side
tone" present in a standard landline telephone receiver, or the result of poor nulling where the
cellular network interfaces with the Telco lines. This means anyone with a receiver or scanner
capable of tuning the upper frequency in the pair can monitor both sides of the conversation.
It is illegal to do so, however.
CELLULAR COMMUNICATIONS PRIVACY
To calm fears that cellular calls were not private, the cellular industry lobbied congress into
passing legislation known today as the Electronic Communication Privacy Act (ECPA) of 1986
which makes it a crime to monitor cellular phone calls and a host of other transmissions like
digital pagers. This law is used by cellular equipment dealers and service providers to reassure
customers that their conversations will remain private.
A person using a cellular phone is broadcasting his private conversation on airwaves owned by
the general public. These radio signals permeate our homes, bodies, and scanning receivers. Yet
so complete is the cellular transceiver's emulation of an actual telephone that the general public
not only expects privacy, but feels confident that the call is secure. Nobody could possibly be
sitting in the privacy of their living room monitoring the conversation. That would be a Federal
crime.
The ECPA has been described as a "toothless tiger" as it is virtually unenforceable. A growing
number of scanner enthusiasts are monitoring cellular calls rather than the local fire department
because it is much more entertaining. The ECPA is ignored by the public and law enforcement
alike, just like the laws remaining on the books that make it illegal to work on Sunday.
The bottom line is that it is up to you and I to ensure the privacy of our cellular calls. If you
don't want to use a scrambling system, simply don't talk about anything on a cellular phone that
you wouldn't discuss using your rig on the amateur bands.
TELEPHONE CONTROL DATA
With this simplified overview of the cellular network under your belt, let's dig a little deeper into
the data exchanged by the cellular carrier and your phone. Obviously there is more information
being sent by your phone to the cellular company than your conversation. The service provider
needs to identify your physical phone, cellular phone number, etc. This is accomplished via data
transmitted by your phone on a frequency set aside as a "data channel" in each cell every time
you turn it on or use it.
Your phone transmits six pieces of information to the cellular provider. One is the Electronic
Serial Number (ESN) of your phone.
Every cellular phone is assigned an ESN when manufactured. This ESN consists of numerical
data which identify the manufacturer of the phone as well as the actual unique serial number of
the specific phone. The ESN is an eleven digit (decimal) number which has been burned into
a PROM chip permanently installed in the phone. Like the Vehicle ID Number (VIN) on your
car, it is not designed to be removed or modified, although hackers occasionally do in order to
circumvent billing procedures (see sidebar).
One other item transmitted is your Mobile Identification Number (MIN) which is the actual ten
digit area code and telephone number assigned to your phone. The remainder are numerical
codes used by the cell site to identify things like your class of service and the specific
capabilities of your phone hardware. This data is supplied when you activate service with the
carrier.
The ESN and MIN are matched and checked by computer against a database each time you use
the phone to ensure that you are a valid subscriber, or roaming from a system the carrier can bill
for your calls.
All of this information (except the ESN) is provided by the cellular carrier and programmed into
your phone when you subscribed to their service. The vast majority of cellular phones
manufactured today are reprogrammable through the handset. This means that you can change
(reprogram) this information yourself without costly programming devices simply by entering the
proper keystrokes on the telephone handset, and punching in the data.
This knowledge opens up a number of possibilities. If you activate or change your cellular
service, you can program the phone yourself with data supplied by the cellular carrier and save
paying any type of reprogramming fee. If you're looking to acquire equipment, you can canvass
flea markets, swap meets and the pages of classified ad magazines such as Nuts & Volts for great
deals on used phones. Not only will you enjoy savings on the hardware, but you'll only need
to pay the cellular company to activate service, since you can program the phone yourself.
In my article next month in Nuts & Volts I'll explain all the data programmed into a phone,
explain what it means, and lead you step by step through the handset programming of a popular
phone. This information is an important reference for those who may just want to do something
simple like change the unlock code on the phone. We'll also take a look at the publications
available through Nuts & Volts advertisers that explain cellular telephone reprogramming and
modification in depth.

BUYING USED CELLULAR GEAR
A FEW CAVEATS
When shopping the classifieds, flea markets and electronics swap meets for great deals on used
cellular telephones, keep the following points in mind to avoid getting "burned."
Cellular phones are a major target of theft in some cities. They appeal to criminals such as drug
dealers because they allow anonymous and virtually untraceable communication from a vehicle
or street corner. The phone is discarded as useless when the service is disconnected, and such
units may unwittingly be resold with other used equipment. There is no real way to discern this
other than to phone your local cellular service provider to see if the phone's ESN is flagged in
their computer as having been stolen.
The other type of phone to avoid is one that has been physically modified. Hackers have been
known to replace the factory PROM chip containing the ESN with a custom burned chip, thus
changing the ESN. If this is done for the purpose of fraudulently making free calls, the ESN
chip must be changed periodically as the cellular carrier discovers the fraud associated with that
ESN.
Detection of this type of modification is easy. Cellular manufacturers as a rule do NOT use a
socket to hold the ESN chip. The PROM is usually not only soldered to the board, but sealed
in epoxy or "air welded" to the circuit board to discourage this type of modification. An IC
socket is usually installed by the hacker to facilitate easy insertion of updated PROM as
necessary.
No reputable service center will repair a phone if it appears someone has tampered with the ESN,
and might call the police if presented with such a phone.
The vast majority of equipment you'll find on the open market is genuine surplus or used
merchandise. With the above information in mind you can examine the phone and be confident
about your decision to make a purchase.

Some Articles on Cellular Fraud from the Telecom Digest on the Usenet
Uploaded by Elric of Imrryr (lll-lcc!csustan!elric)
Article #1
Well, although Cellular is "untraceable" in the same way that regular phones
are, it still is not the ideal system to commit toll fraud on.
>From what I understand about how the cellular system works, a new
subscriber is assigned a phone number, and then given a 4 digit code
that is unique to his cellular phone. Thus, the chip that is placed
into a cell phone to identify it may have a # like this:
212-909-1234-5555. The 5555 is the 4 digit ID code, very much like the
PIN number on Bell System Calling Cards.
When you request service, you have to have your number "turned on" at the
Cellular Company. And, like a calling card, the Cell Co. checks to see if the
special ID # matches before it puts the call through (It checks a lot of other
things too, like signal strength and stuff, but that's not important now...).
So in order for someone to make free calls, he has to know an active number,
and then go to the dealer who sold the phone with that number and ask the
dealer what the ID number is. If the dealer is unscrupulous, he will give out
the ID number, and THEN you can make free calls.
However, in no more than a month, if the customer finds that there are a lot
of calls which he did not make, he can call the Cell. Co. and demand that they
remove the calls from his bill. The Cell. Co. will also change the ID number,
and if they are smart will check out the Cellular phone dealer to see if he
gave away the ID code to that specific number.
So what free Cellular service will get you is at best a month's worth of calls,
and that's about it. Also, you will have to go to different dealers all the
time, since if it happened with the same dealer a lot the Cell Co. might
investigate the Cellular phone dealer. Also, you would have to change your
number every month if you wanted people to call you.
Stolen Bell Cards work the same way, although faster. If you steal a Bell
System Calling Card, and you use it a lot, the local Bell Company (or, heaven
forbid, the GTE company if you can
manage to use a calling card there! :-) ) will call the paying customer and
ask "did you make 300 calls today?". Usually, the customer says no, so they
just cancel the card and issue a new PIN number to the customer, usually right
away. (The system to assign PIN numbers is almost instantaneous, it seems. The
minute they assign you a PIN # you can use it!). Assuming the free calls were
made from a payphone, the Bell Co. will still call the destination numbers to
see if anyone knows who called them, in hopes of catching the person. If they
get enough people to say "Sure, I know Mr. so-and-so", then they may go after
the person who stole the card.
The point is that Bell Calling Cards have a built in safety system to
protect against fraud. (The alternates don't have anything quite as
sophisticated...). It would not be very hard to put a similar "excessive use"
system of cellular phones. Thus, if cell fraud becomes pervasive, it should be
a relatively simple manner to end it, and thus Cell Fraud is really not much
better than the standard stuff people do at payphones.
Also, Bell System Calling Cards can be used as frequently as you like. The
normal "warning" occurs if you have more that 30 calls in 3 hours (or is it
36?). However, if you use your Bell Card a lot (like I do), then you can ask
your local Bell Co. to put a little note on your account that you are a heavy
user of the card. That way, if you make more than 30 calls in 3 hours (or
whatever), you don't get the card turned off. This is VERY convenient if you
are away from home and don't want to worry about how many calls you make.
Basically then, the people who designed the Cellular System were smart,
and they made sure you can't cheat it too easily or too long. Seeing how easy
it is for them to stop Calling Card fraud, I see no reason why with the
Cellular system set up the way it is that they can't prevent Cell fraud as
well...
(I'm sure I made a few mistakes there, so any corrections are welcome...)
Well, that's my two cents worth! -

Article #2
Excuse me...YOU ARE WRONG!
The Electronic Serial Number is an 8 digit Hexidecimal number. It is not
easily changed. Both the MIN, (Mobil Id Number, your phone number) and the
ESN are sent out when you press the send key. Your MIN is easily changed
by reprogramming your phone, but the ESN is not easily changed. To change
your phone number, both the phone, and the cell system must be changed.
Depending on the cell system you are trying to commit fraud on, you may
get several months of free calls, or just one. If you are using one of
the systems that participate in the fraud detection systems in use, (the
name slips my mind at the moment), your service will be cut off after the
first fraudulent call--in all of those systems.
You may have gotten the 5 digit code from the lock feature that comes with
most cell phones these days. This is just a security feature to keep
your phone from being used while it's unattended. It has nothing to do
with the cell system itself. My phone only has a 3 digit security code.
I usually see this security code set to the last n digits of the phone's
phone number.

Article #3
The "PIN" on the telephone number is NOT assigned by the Cellular
Phone company, but rather is the serial number of the radio you
are using. Every radio has a unique serial number, supposedly on
a chip that is epoxied onto the radio's PC board. The number is
in the format XX-0-XXXX where X represents hex digits. The first
XX is the manufacturer's code (e.g. for EF Johnson phones it is
83) and the last XXXX is the manufacturer's serial number for your
phone.
The PROM which has your cellular phone number, features, etc., is
removable, of course. The only "security" thing on this PROM
(sometimes called a NAM) is the lock-code for your phone, which of
course can be easily read (the main purpose of the lock-code is to
keep away randoms who might try to use your phone in your car.
When your phone initiates a call it transmits the phone number and
the radio serial number. They must match for the call to go through.
That is why if you change the radio on your phone you (or your dealer)
must call your cellular phone company to tell them about the new
radio.
The weakness in this system is that a thief could get ahold of a
phone without a epoxied serial number (either by building one or by
buying one of the cheapos that don't epoxy the serial number chip in
it) and then change it. I suspect the easiest instance of fraud is
to use an out-of-service-area phone number (e.g. a San Diego phone
number in San Francisco) that has roamer privileges. Generally, the
companies don't have serial number records for roamers (consider the
problems of keeping records of some other company's customers!) and
rely upon hot-listing known bad guys. So you pick a fraudulant
phone number and serial number pair, and change it periodically when
the company finds out it ain't real.
This must be what the drug pushers and similar slime are doing. They
aren't particularly clever, they're relying upon the deregulation
mania of the present US regime to guarantee poor communication between
telephone service providers.

Article #4
If the cellular ID numbers are sent from the car are unencrypted, someone
with the right (underground) connections could make quite a fortune by
building a box that pulls these numbers "out of the air".
Are protocols used by cellular phones published anywhere?

Make that, it is not supposed to be easily changed. While the ESN is not
in that NAM (the EPROM with the phone number) in it's nice ZIF socket, many
manufacturers just put it in another ROM which anybody with a small amount
of electronics background can change.
I would expect the most common sort of Cellular fraud involves using
phones from another system through automatic ROAM agreements. Presumably
the ESN/Phone number checking isn't as rigourous or as up-to-date in remote
systems as it is in your home system.

The whole thing is pretty silly. Each unit has a serial number
and the serial number is "supposed to be" impossible to change.
Actually in many systems it is in a PROM in a socket, so no biggy.
Even if it was impossible to change, it's not impossible to change
the ROMs that hold the program that runs the phone, so you could
always reprogram it to ignore the ROM. You could embed the whole
phone in epoxy, but who would buy a $2000 phone that you have to throw
away if any little thing breaks?
The best deal would be to make a program ROM where if you put it in
this mode, it would listen on the control channel for phones making
calls or answering rings, and save away 10 or 20 of their phone number/
serial number pairs. Anytime you wanted to make a call, it would pick
one at random and pretend to be that phone. The load on any
individual's bill would be light enough that you'd be hard to catch.
This would not let you receive calls for free, but I seem to recall
some scheme for that, too. Geoff Goodfellow, Bob Jesse, and Andrew
Lamothe published a paper on this in the November 1985 issue of
Personal Communications Technology magazine (FutureComm Publications
Inc., 4005 Williamsburg Ct., Fairfax, VA 22032, 703/352-1200).
The cellular phone standard is called "EIA IS-3-B" though I think they
recently upgraded it to "-C". You can get a copy from Global Engineering
Documents (call 800 information). It is not lucid but it is readable
if you flip around a lot and think about it.

Introduction
~~~~~~~~~~~~
We have all seen them, heard about them, and most people use them. What am I
talking about? None other than the Cellular Phone. One of the most interesting
things ever that is associated with the Phreaking Community. This guide will
not tell you how to do illegal things with your cell but this will give you a
basic view of how the cellular phone works. Enjoy!
_____________________________________________________________________________
" " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " "
1) Some of the Cellular Phone Basics
The main thing to remember about a cellular phone is that it is a
radio. It is basically like a hand held walkie talkie except with a cellular
phone you have alot more capabilities and can talk and listen at the same
time. Remember though that when you are talking on a cellular phone what you
say may and possibly will be monitored very easily. There are two main types
of Cellular Phones Analog and Digital.
1) Analog: On this the audio is modulated directly onto a carrier
2) Digital: On Digital, these are converted to digitized samples.
These are transmitted as 1's and 0's. Then it is converted
back to voltage so you get the audio signal.
Each Cellular Phone has to identify itself to its cell site before
service is allowed. They are identified by what is known as an ESN and a MIN.
1) ESN: This stands for Electronic Serial Number. This is a 32-bit
Binary Number if I am not mistaken.
2) MIN: Mobile Identification Number. This is the phone number of the
Cellular Phone. 10 digits including area code and all.
_____________________________________________________________________________
" " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " "
2) The Reason for the name Cellular.
The reason for this is that in each city the Cellular Phone System is
divided into smaller sections also referred to as cells. These usually have an
antenna on top of a high surface that gives out strong signals therefore giving
you clear service.
_____________________________________________________________________________
" " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " "
3) Review of the Cellular System.
The main system operating in the United States is the AMPS, Advanced
Mobile Phone System. The AMPS are composed of two different things:
1) EAMPS: This system has 832 channels.
2) NAMPS: This system has three times the amount with very clear
signals.
All these have 42 channels that are used to setup calls the rest are
for talking over the Cellular Phone.

4) What goes on during Cellular Calling.
Just imagine if you are stranded somewhere or possibly just want to
use your cellular phone to call someone. Have you ever wondered how it worked?
Why it worked? If so then I will explain how and why in this section here.
Enjoy!
1) Scan Channels: In this step the cellular phone scans for the
closest cell site near you so that you can get
the strongest signals possible due to your location
at the moment.
2) Choose Strongest: As stated above the cellular phone finds the
closest site to give you the best performance.
3) Send Message: The phone sends a short message to the cell site
verifying the MIN, ESN, and the number that you
have just entered to call.
4) Assign Channel: After verifying the above information and they
know that you are a legal paying customer, the
base assigns a mesage to your phone, telling it
where the conversation is.
5) Talk: Phone then gets on that channel and begins to ring. Then
you begin to talk like normal. The easiest step of them all.

5) Cellular Cloning and Other Features.
Cellular Cloning is one of the newest and more popular things going
on now a days. What you are basically doing is programming someone else's
MIN and ESN into your phone in the process of fooling your cellsite into
thinking that you are actually them. Is this legal? Well it depends on which
way you use it. If you use it to clone one of your own phones where you can
have two phones exactly the same then no, but if you are cloning someone
else's then yes it is very illegal. The philosophy of a cellular phone phreak
as stated in another text written by John Markoff is to push the machines as
far as they would go. The possibilites with a cellular phone are practically
endless. You can make one into a scanner as well as many other things.
The first step of being able to do ANY of this is getting the cellular
phone into what people call test mode. This is where you can practically change
the whole phone's features. The main way to get into this is to crack the access
code. There is a good site that deals with that at the following URL:
http://www.radiophone.com They have great information. Another way to get a
cellular phone is by taking the battery pack off of the back and look in the
lower corner. Here you will see some little prongs, you can get a small piece
of tin foil and place it in the center of the prong like so: |*|
then put the battery pack back on the back of the phone. Then turn the phone
on and when you turn it on you should see an array of flashing numbers. If
so you are in luck because you are in test mode! :)~

6) Basic Test Mode Programming
This section will tell you what to do once you get into the test mode.
This part comes from 1993 Cellular Subscriber Technical Training Manual. I
give full credit to them for this information. I am not going to include all
of it because it would take forever. Here are some of the basics. Enjoy!
32# = clear the phone
38# = displays the ESN
55# = test mode programming
01# = restart
13# = power off
16# = setup
18# = send NAM
34# = turn DTMF off
61# ESN transfer
That is jsut some of the very basics. Of course there is alot more
and if I ever write another article with Cellular Phones I will include some
more. Don't want to get very much ahead of ourselves. :)

7) What kind of Cellular is Best?
There are different kinds of cellular phones for different kind of
people. Me personally I have experience so far with only Motorola. I plan to
get a Nokia soon. Nokia are very advanced and have many options. There is also
the OKI those have been stated to be good. The one that interests me at the
moment are these new ones that are Java based. If you would like to read more
about these go to the following URL:
http://www.nortel.com/cool/norteledge/edge298/N._IP_N.html
But as stated above many people like many different things, there is
also a new Motorla that is the IDEN I10000. These have two-way radio and
alphanumeric pager in one. These weigh in at around 5 oz. as well.
They also include: One touch call back, a speakerphone, and a multilanguage
operation that displays prompts in one to four different languages. For more
information on this you can call: 1.800.453.0920

8) Where is the Cellular Technology Going?
This is a very interesting thing to think about including all the
things that they already have out and available at this point in time. There
is no way to actually predict what is going to come out next due to people
having new ideas with each and every passing day. It should be an interesting
thing to think forward about. Whatever it is, it will turn heads I am sure!

We have seemed to read the end of this guide. I hope this has been
an informative source and you enjoyed it. I will probably write another cellular
guide in the future but am not sure at the moment. Remember "Push the Machine
as Far as it will Go!" =)

Here is a method of determining which freqs are used in a cellular
system, and which ones are in what cells. If the system uses
OMNICELLS, as most do, you can readily find all the channels in a
cell if you know just one of them, using tables constructed with
the instructions below.
Cellular frequencies are assigned by channel number, and for all
channel numbers, in both wireline and non-wireline systems, the
formula is:
Transmit Freq = (channel number x .030 MHz) + 870 MHz
Receive Freq = (channel number x .030 Mhz) + 825 Mhz
"Band A" (one of the two blocks) uses channels 1 - 333. To
construct a table showing frequency by cells, use ch 333 as the
top left corner of a table. The next entry to the right of
ch 333 is 332, the next is 331, etc., down to ch 313. Enter
ch 312 underneath 333, 311 under 332, etc. Each channel across
the top row is the 1st chan in each CELL of the system; each
channel DOWN from the column from the the first channel is the
next freq assigned to that Cell. You may have noted that each
channel down is 21 channels lower in number. Usually the data
channel used is the highest numbered channel in a cell.
"Band B" uses channels from 334 to 666. Construct your table in a
similar way, with ch 334 in the upper left corner, 335 the next
entry to the right. The data channel should be the lowest numbered
channel in each cell this time.
The tables generated by these instructions are found in the file
named "CELLPLAN.TXT"
Channel 3 (394) Tx 881.820 Rx 836.820
Channel 4 (415) Tx 882.450 Rx 837.
End of list.

Cellular Phreaking Theory
The cellular/mobile phone system is one that is perfectly set up to be
exploited by phreaks with the proper knowledge and equipment. Thanks to
deregulation, the regional BOC's (Bell Operating Companies) are scattered and
do not communicate much with each other. Phreaks can take advantage of this
by pretending to be mobile phone customers whose "home base" is a city served
by a different BOC, known as a "roamer". Since it is impractical for each BOC
to keep track of the customers of all the other BOC's, they will usually allow
the customer to make the calls he wishes, often with a surcharge of some sort.
The bill is then forwarded to the roamer's home BOC for collection. However,
it is fairly simple (with the correct tools) to create a bogus ID number for
your mobile phone, and pretend to be a roamer from some other city and state,
that's "just visiting". When your BOC tries to collect for the calls from
your alleged "home BOC", they will discover you are not a real customer; but
by then, you can create an entirely new electronic identity, and use that
instead.
How does the cellular system know who is calling, and where they are?
When a mobile phone enters a cell's area of transmission, it transmits its
phone number and its 8 digit ID number to that cell, who will keep track of it
until it gets far enough away that the sound quality is sufficiently
diminished, and then the phone is "handed off" to the cell that the customer
has walked or driven into. This process continues as long as the phone has
power and is turned on. If the phone is turned off (or the car is), someone
attempting to call the mobile phone will receive a recording along the lines
of "The mobile phone customer you have dialed has left the vehicle or driven
out of the service area." When a call is made to a mobile phone, the
switching equipment will check to see if the mobile phone being called is
"logged in", so to speak, or present in one of the cells. If it is, the call
will then act (to the speaking parties) just like a normal call - the caller
may hear a busy tone, the phone may just ring, or the call may be answered.
How does the switching equipment know whether or not a particular
phone is authorized to use the network? Many times, it doesn't. When a
dealer installs a mobile phone, he gives the phone's ID number (an 8 digit
hexadecimal number) to the local BOC, as well as the phone number the BOC
assigned to the customer. Thereafter, whenever a phone is present in one of
the cells, the two numbers are checked - they should be registered to the same
person. If they don't match, the telco knows that an attempted fraud is
taking place (or at best, some transmission error) and will not allow calls to
be placed or received at that phone. However, it is impractical (especially
given the present state of deregulation) for the telco to have records of
every cellular customer of every BOC. Therefore, if you're going to create a
fake ID/phone number combination, it will need to be "based" in an area that
has a cellular system (obviously), has a different BOC than your local area
does, and has some sort of a "roamer" agreement with your local BOC.
How can one "phreak" a cellular phone? There are three general areas
when phreaking cellular phones; using one you found in an unlocked car (or an
unattended walk-about model), modifying your own chip set to look like a
different phone, or recording the phone number/ID number combinations sent by
other local cellular phones, and using those as your own. Most cellular
phones include a crude "password" system to keep unauthorized users from using
the phone - however, dealers often set the password (usually a 3 to 5 digit
code) to the last four digits of the customer's mobile phone number. If you
can find that somewhere on the phone, you're in luck. If not, it shouldn't be
TOO hard to hack, since most people aren't smart enough to use something
besides "1111", "1234", or whatever. If you want to modify the chip set in a
cellular phone you bought (or stole), there are two chips (of course, this
depends on the model and manufacturer, yours may be different) that will need
to be changed - one installed at the manufacturer (often epoxied in) with the
phone's ID number, and one installed by the dealer with the phone number, and
possible the security code. To do this, you'll obviously need an EPROM burner
as well as the same sort of chips used in the phone (or a friendly and
unscrupulous dealer!). As to recording the numbers of other mobile phone
customers and using them; as far as I know, this is just theory... but it
seems quite possible, if you've got the equipment to record and decode it.
The cellular system would probably freak out if two phones (with valid
ID/phone number combinations) were both present in the network at once, but it
remains to be seen what will happen.
Note/Disclaimer: Ok, I don't pretend to know everything about
cellular phones; I've screwed around with them a little, but I figured I'd
make a file with the things I've learned about them, to at least share what I
know and possible bring about further discussion.

CELLULAR PHREAKER TYPES
-----------------------
There are two types of cellular phone phreakers. The first type is the one
whos's intrested in scanning cellular phone channels basically to overhear
conversations. The second type is the one who obtains and modifies cellular
equipment so that he can make free phone calls at someone elese's expense.
I. IMPROVED MOBILE TELEPHONE SERVICE
This system that was used prior to cellular phones was the Improved Mobile
Telephone Service (IMTS), which was much easier to scan for.
Most scanner enthusiasts are familiar with this standard mobile phone
system; this system has gone thru little evolution in the past decade in the
U.S. It has remained a considerably limited service. A large metro area may
only have several hundred users, (New York City has about 900 mobile phone
subscribers) dur largely to limitations imposed by spectral overcroeding.
Land mobile commo has seen a 10-12% annual growth rate for the past two
decades. The result is that the 40, 150 and 450 MHZ bands are overcrowded.
Even the utilization of the new 900 MHZ band (with 30-40 times more channels
available than other bands) is a short-lived solution to the problem.

The VHF high-band freqs. are the most popular IMTS channels. If you live
within 25-50 miles of even a moderate sized town, you should have at least
one VHF high-band channel. VHF low-band IMTS is used in rural areas and
those with hilly terrain. UHF IMTS is primarily used in cities where the
VHF channels are crowded. If you live in a major city, expect to have most,
if not all, of these channels available to you.
II. GENERAL CELLULAR INFO
This section is a little boring but it's needed to set a basic foundation
of cellular phone phreaking so that part 2 doesn't sound like all
technicial talk!
The FCC originally estaablished 3 cellular bands. One was given to the local
Bell or Telco, (wireline carrier), one to an independent firm (non-wireline
carrier), and one reserved for future use. Originally there were 666 cellular
freqs or channels. In recent years the FCC has tacked on another 156 freqs
for a total of 832 freqs, and all cellular makers have upgraded their phones
to accomodate the new channels. Some of the new channels appears above the
original 666 while others appear below.
The cellular system cannot know whether or not a cellular phone can be
switched to one of the 156 channels without the phone telling it. This is done
by the Station Class Mark (SCM), which is a 4-bit binary number.
(1) Bit #1 is "0" for 666 and "1" for 832
(2) Bit #2 is "0" for a mobile unit and
"1" for a voice activated transmit.
(That saves batteries on portables.)
(3) Bit #3 and #4 identify the power class
of the phone:
"00" = 3 watts
"01" = 1.2 watts
"10" = 0.6 watts
and "11" is not assigned.
The old traditional scheme for handling cellular traffic is the analog
method or Frequency-Divison Multiple Access (FDMA). How the FDMA works is
that free channels are found and each transmitter is assigned to one of them.
When the call finishes, th echannels are freed up for the next call. Also, as
the two parties become physically closer or more distant as they drive or
travhghhggytel the call may be handed off to other freqs assigned to the new cells
they are in.
Newer proposed schemes include Time-Divison Multiple Acess (TDMA) and Code-
Divison Multiple Acess (CDMA). IN TDMA systems, calls may simultaneously use
the same channels but are interspered between the pauses in the conversation.
Many pauses result not only in the way people normally think and talk but when
one party is talking, the other is listening. With TDMA, the Cellular Phone
Company (CPC) injects small delays in parts of conversations to accommodate
other traffic on that channel. This increases the lenght of the average phone
call, which also increases their profits from it - not to mention the fact
that they can increase there output by the factor of 3 and also then expand
their operation.
CDMA is a system that's been used by military for the past 30+ years. CDMA
appears to basically be a system where conversation are compressed into coded
bundles and then decompressed at the other end.
A Cellular Mobile Telephone (CMT) is one that is installed in a vehicle,
aircraft, watercraft or whatever, as opposed to a transporable or portable
unit.
III. CELLULAR FREQS & CHANNELS
There are 832 cellular phone channels. 416 of these are allocated for the
non-wireline services (Band A), and 416 for the wireline services (Band B).
Each of these channels have two freqs, spaced 45 MHZ apart, that operate in
a full-duplex mode. The lower freq is for the phone unit, while the upper is
for the cell or basesite. Of the 416 channels, 21 are digital data control or
"set up" channels and 395 are voice channels. Channels are numbered 1 thru
1023, and there is a gap from 800 to 990.
Rather than producing a list of 1646 cellular freqs, I have provided the math
eqations that can be used to calculate them. These equations can be programmed
into computers and calculators.
N = Cellular Channel # F = Cellular Freq
B = 0 (mobile), or B = 1 (base)
CELLULAR FREQS from CHANNEL #S:
-------------------------------
F = 825.030 + B*45 + (N-1)*.03
WHERE: n = 1 to 799
F = 824.040 + b*45 + (N-1)*.03
where: N = 991 to 1023
CELLULAR CHANNEL #s from FREQS:
-------------------------------
N = 1 + (F-825.030-B*45)/.03
Where: F > = 825.030 (mobile)
or F > = 870.030 (base)
N = 991 + (F-824.040-B*45)/.03
Where: F < = 825.000 (mobile)
or F < = 870.000 (base)
If the system uses OMNICELLS, as most do, you can readily find all the
channels in a cell if you know just one of them, using tables constructed
from these equations. Band A uses channels 1-333 under the old 666-channel
system. To that have been added 667-716 and 991-1023 under the new 832-channel
system. Band B uses channels from 334-666 under the old system, plus 717-799
under the new system.

To summarize how a cellular call is made: A mobile unit wishing to make a
call will go off-hook and then transmit the digital source and destination
codes on a control channel (used to set-up and monitor the call), and are
just strong enough to reach the base station in the local cell. Upon getting
this data, the base, thru its control freq (same channel), validates the
mobile unit.
The base station then fowards a message to the central switching office on
a land line, which in turn sends the paging signal to all cells in search of
the second mobile unit whos number has been dialed. When the destination unit
is finally found, it responds to the paging signal by transmitting an
acknowledgement code to its local base station on a control channel.
The switching center then assigns a pair of unused freqs (called the,
"channel Pair") to each of the unit for actual voice commo to take place.
These channel pairs are not neccesarily the same for the respective cells
that each mobile unit is in. These freqs are also relayed thru the base
stations and to the central switching office.
When a unit moves into another cell, things get very interesting. Upon
entry into another cell, the mobile unit must transmit thru a new base
station. An automatic handoff to the new base station is carried out by
another exchange of data thru the control channel.
Termination of the call is a simple matter. When the call ends,ON-hook
signals are exchanged via the control channels between the mobile unit and
the base station. The voice channels are then cleared.
IV. THE CELL & IT'S STRUCTURE
The cellular phone system uses a "honeycombed" hexagonal cell architure.
Each of the cell types (A-G) differ from each other only in the freqs.
allocated for them. This represents how a cellular system might be laid out.
Cells A and B never share a common border. Neither do B and C, A and G,
etc. Cells that are next to each other are never assigned adjacent freqs.
They always differbu\y at least 60 KHZ. To track a mobile phone as it
changes cells, lets put the mobile in a B cell. When the mobile switches
freqs. you know that it could only go to a D, E, F, or G cell because A and
C have adjacent freqs. The two tables below will help you determine which
Channel cell can go next to each other. You can contact your local cellular
phone company and see if they have any maps of the cell available in your
area (please get a copy for us also). They're not obligated to give you maps
but it's worth the try.
ADJACENT CELLS
--------------
Cell Adjacent cells
A C,D,E,F
B D,E,F,G
C E,F,G,A
D F,G,A,B
E G,A,B,C
F A,B,C,D
G B,C,D,E
The only fundamental point of cellular technology actually agreed upon to
date is that a given service area will be divided into identical adjacent
cells with no overlaps and no gaps. The hexagon is the standard cell
patteren. At the center of an individual cell is a base station which is
conected via land line to a local mobile phone switching office. Certain
freq bands are assigned to certain cells, but not shared with adjacent cells
to avoid mutual interference.
In 1979, AT&T began test marketing its version of a cellular phone system
in Chicago. This system is call the Advanced Mobile Phone System (AMPS)
Some 2100 sq miles of the metro Chicago area are divided into 10 cells to
serve about 2000 customers. Full duplex is possible by using a pair of one
way channels separated by 45 MHZ to connect the mobile units with the base
stations. The RF range is 825-890 MHZ and normal narrow band FM is used to
transmit voice. Hand-off to adjacent cells is accomplished by monitoring
signal strengths. When the central switching office determines that a new
base station receives the mobile signal better than the previous one, the
switching office signals thru the voice channel for the mobile phone to
switch to a new channel. Commo distruption thru the switching process is
typically 50 milliseconds.
As with IMTS, there is the possibility of phreaking calls with IMTS or AMPS
simply by monitoring the control channels since they are in dial pulse form.
After you have a nice set of numbers, you will neeed a transmitter of
sufficient strenght to reach the base station (unlicenced transmitter of
course!). Duhh
Many regulatory and implementation issues remain unsolved. Modulation issues
are the biggest problem to be solved. Single sideband AM, narrow band FM,
digital and spread-spectrum techniques are all being considered. If you have
any info that may be able to break this down for fellow hackers/phreaks
please leave me mail.
V. EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
Most mobile phones have two primary pieces of equipment. These are the
transceiver (transmitter-receiver pair) and the control head.
The transceiver is usually a metal box with three connectors. They usually
contain two circuit boards. One is the transceiver unit itself, and the other
is a logic board consisting of a uP, ADC and DAC, and control logic. The
transceiver is usually mounted in the trunk or sometimes under the hood, and
is connected to both the ignition switch and car battery. A control/audio
(shielded) links the equipment together.
The control head is a touch-tone phone handset with the extended keypad,
alphanumeric display and controls (i.e. mike, volume). Usually there is a
separate speaker installed in the cradle for on-hook dialing, call progress
monitoring and speakerphone operation. If the CMT has a speaker phone option
a small mike is usually mounted to the sun visor. Some cellular phones are
voice-activated. If battery-operated, this saves the battery and also makes
answering the phone easier. The control head and cradle assembly is usually
bolted to the hump between the two front seats for security purposes.
Most early CMT's use the AMPS bus (developed by AT&T) which uses a system
of 36 wires in a rather bulky and stiff control/audio cable. Some makers now
use their own bus, such as Novatel's serial bus, which specifies a thin cable
consisting of a few wires, and is much easier to install and dependable to
use. In almost all cases, a CMT is powered by regulated 12 volts from standard
13.8 volt car battery. At least 5 amps (continuous) is required.
Mobile cellular antennas are usually short (less than one foot long),
vertically-mounted stiff wire with a few turns in the middle that acts as a
phasing coil in a 5/8-wave configuration. The antenna is generally mounted
either thru a hole in the roof or at the top of the rear winshield using
silicone rubber cement with conductive plates on both sides to pass the RF
thru the glass (some RF losses result from this method but you don't have to
maim your vehcle). A 50 ohm coax cable (ex: RG-58/U) links the antenna to the
transceiver with a male TNC type UHF connector. A ceramic duplexer permits
the transmitter and receiver to share the same antennas at the same time.
CMT roof-mounted monopole antennas are designed to work with the ground
plane (ie: the vehicle's body, if metal). However, for fixed (ie: home-base)
use, an "extended-feed" or voltage-fed coaxial antenna (requires no ground
plane) can be used. A capped PVC pipe makes an ideal rooftop housing for
this type of antenna-both weatherprofing and concealing it. Note that altho
cellular systems are designed for inefficient antennas, for fixed use it is
preferred that you use the best antenna you can get.
Interfacing audio devices (ex Blue Boxes, other tone generators) to a CMT
can be done by coupling the device's output thru an audio coupling
transformer wired across the control head's mike lines. A 600-ohm audio
coupling antenna is availble from Radio Shack (273-1374). Be sure to DC
isolate the phon circuity by wiring the transformer in series with a
non-polarized capacitor of at least 1.0 uF and 50 volts. If you can locate
the bus that carries the audio, then coupling across it is preferred.
An acoustic modem can be coupled to a CMT eithrer thru the mouthpiece or by
connecting the mike and speaker wires to those in the control head or bus
lines. Any direct-connect devices (ex: answering machines, modems, standard
phones, etc) can be connected to a CMT thru the AB1X cellular interface
made by : Morrison & Dempsey (818 993-0195). This expensive device is
basically a 1-line PBX that connects between the transceiver and control
head and provides an RJ-11C (quick-connect) jack that accepts any direct-
connect phone accessory. It recognizes both touch-tone and pulse dialing,
provides the ringing voltage and generates dial and busy tones as needed.
VI. GENERAL PHREAKING INFO
----------------------
Some Definitions:
* Control Channel: The channel the phone and cell base first communicate on.
* Reverse Control Channel: The opposite freq, 45MHZ lower then the control
channel. This is where the mobile unit is.
* Voice Channel: The channel you are assigned by the switch to start the call
after the exchange of suscriber data.
* Revese Voice Channel: Again 45 MHZ lower.
* Switch: The computer that places the calls, and takes and receiver data
from the subcriber or from the PSTN. (Pubic Swithced Telephone Network). That
should get things started. A suscriber picks up his handset to place a call.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
---------------------
The following questions & answers were taken from THE SOURCE BBS a.k.a.
THE NEW YORK HACK EXCHANGE
BCOM> I want to get into cellular phone phreaking but I dont know anything so
I'm depending on you guys to help me out from the VERY basics!
What is cellular; a cellular phone?
RAVEN> A 800 MHZ radiotelephone, running 3 watts, with the ability to change
channel on computer command from the central swith. This happens when
you travel thru the service area and your signal becomes stronger at a
neighboring cell base station.
BCOM> They are marketed as a high security device with no possibility of
anyone making a phoney call & charging it to someone else, how can it
be phreaked?
RAVEN> An understanding of the phone revels that every time a call is made,
the phone number, an electronic serial number, and oother data is sent
to the switch. If you were to listen to the opposite side of the
control channel as the cell is being "set up" you would hear this data
being transmitted to the switdch in NRZ (Non-Return to Zero) code.
All one has to do, is record this info and program the bogus phone to
these params, and then a free call is possible thru the switch.
BCOM> Has anyone done this yet?
RAVEN> HELL YEA! about 6 months after the first cellular phone system was
"turned-up", a technician programmed a Panasonic telephone with a
NEC ESN (Electronic Serial Number). And there have been many other
cases since then. With the popular ROM programmers avaible today,
almost any NAM (NUmeric Assignment Module) can be duplicated or
copied with changes. (The NAM is the heart of the billing info and
contains the phone number but not the ESN) The most popular integrated
circut for NAMs is the 74LS123.
BCOM> Sounds like a lot of trouble, is there easier ways to get service?
RAVEN> SURE, the cellphone companies have been their own downfall, In an
effort to market their wares as a universal service. Nobody can tell
if a phone from another city (that has a roaming agreement) is valid
until its too late. The only thing they could do after finding out is
block any call with bad ESN because as we know, the phone number is
easy to change, but the ESN is not.
So here's a likely scenario====> A roamer identifying itself as a number
from a Chicago non-wireline accesses a cellular system in Dallas. An operator
may intervene but you can usually BS or "Social Engineer" them as long as
you know the data you have programmed into your phone. Then you make calls
just like your a local user. If your found out, you change the number to
another, and see if that works.
The phone is locked onto the strongest control channel in the area by a
computerized scanner in the phone. As the user drives thru the service, a
computer constantly picks out the strongest control channel and stays on it,
altho more than one cell site can actually be herd. The subcriber enters
the number to call on the keypad, and presses the "send" button.
At this time the following data is transmitted to the cell site by the
mobile. The callers ESN, his home system number (two digits), his mobile's
area code and phone number, and the called number. The cellular switch now
picks up an outgoing line, places the call for him and tells the mobile unit
to switch to a voice channel. The two ends are linked in the central switch
and the two parties are connected up in about 3 seconds.
I have purposely over-simplified the whole process to point out the moment
of truth. The mobile's ESN and phone number and data in the switch must match
or no go. This is required for billing purposes. If one had the ESN and the
mobile phone number, he could then calll anytime anyplace without fear of a
trace - let alone a bill. The ideal setup would let you listen to the reverse
control channel, record and display herd working numbers and ESN's, and
recall them as one needs them to make calls.
This would be it but we are not quite there yet. But some hard work has
already been done for us. All the aforementioned codes are sent in hex, in
NRZ code (phancy term for phase shift keying), but the phone already has, for
example, a NRZ receiver and transmitter built right into it. All that has to
be done is to have a receiver on the reverse control channel, recover the
other users data and save it or at least print it out.
The mobile radio data book show some good technical info on the systems used
and chip part numbers for the NRZ stuff. For example, at least one cellular
phone maker uses the 8085 chip for the control head functions - a popular
and well understood chip by many.
Most cellular phones include a crude password system to keep unauthorized
users from using the phone - however, dealers often set the password (usually
a 3 to 5 digit code) to the last four digits of the mobile phone or there
home phone. If you can find it somewhere on the phone then your in luck!!
If you can't find it then I guess you gotta hack it. It souldn't be that
hard since most people aren't smart enogh to use something besides "11111",
"12345", or whatever, it will be like Hacking a VMB.
If you want to modify the chip set in the cellular phoneyou got, there are
two chips (of course this depends on the model and maker - your may be
different) that will need to be changed - one installed by the maker usually
eepoxied in with the phone's ID number, and one installed by the dealer with
the phone number, and possible the security code. To do this youll obviously
need an EPROM (Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) burner, as well as the
same type of chips used in the phone (or a friendly & unscruplus dealer!).
As to recording the numbers of other mobile phone customers and using them;
as far as I know it is quite possible, if you got the equipment to record and
decode it. The cellular system would possibly freak out if two phones (with
valid ID/phone number combinations) were both present in the network at once,
but it remains to be seen what will happen.
The MIN is the Mobile Identification Number (includes the phone number, and
it is stored on the NAM ROM). Stolen and spoofed ESN's and MINs are good for
about a month. Once a bad MIN is revealed, the legit user's MIN is changed
by the Mobile Telephone Switching Office (MTSO) and they arrange for a new
NAM ROM to be installed in the users legit unit. Of course MTSO keeps a
database of all legit,illegit and deadbeat MIN/ESN pairs. However, the MTSO
will allow a illegit MIN/ESN pair to continue to function beyond its
discovery in hopes of discovering who the phreaks are.
One of the properties of cellular phone system is that the transmitter
freqs may be changed or "hopped" in the constant effort to allocate freqs.
Because of freq. hopping it is very difficult triangulate a CMT using
standard RF directional finding methods. It is known that a directional
antenna randomly aimed at cellsite repeaters will confuse directional finding
equipment being used by them that is synced to their freq. hopping scheme.
ROAMING
Since cellular technology often results in physical seperation between the
caller and-or callled party from landlines, because it offers thousands of
lines to choose from, because freq. hopping occurs, and because the caller
and-or called party can be rapidly moving from one location to another,
cellular phnes are the safest form of phreaking. "Roaming" is one form of
cellular phreaking.
Roaming occurs when a CMT is used in a cellular system other than the one
indicated in the NAMs SID. This is called "ROAMmode", and the ROAM indicator
on the control head will light. A CMT can roam into any system its home CPC
has a roaming agreement with, and most CPC's now have roam agreements with
each other. Not every system pays attention to a "Roamer" from outside the
system as cosely as they do a local suscriber. In their mad rush to offer
cellular as "universal" service, they screwed up. If there's no roam
agreement, the MTSO will transmit a recorded message to the CMT with some
instructions to call the CPC, and gives his name ,MIN,ESN and credit card
number. All roamed calls will then be completed by the MTSO and billed to the
credit card account. This procedure is becomming less common as more roam
agreements are made.
Usually, CPC can only determine if a roamer came from a system with which
it has a roaming agreement - nit the creditworthiness of the roamer.
Consequently, many CPCs have been ripped-off by roamers who've been denied
service on their home system because they are deadbeats. Once the home CPC
is billed for the roaming services provided by the remote CPC to the phreaker
or deadbeat, it will notify the same to add that ESN/MIN pair to their
MTSO's "negative verify" file to prevent future abuses.
Several independent firms are establishing systems software and data
networks to allow POSITIVE ROAMER VERIFICATION (PRV), which allow near real
time roamer validation bt sharing data between CPCs. Until PRV becomes
universal, even bogus ESNs and MINs can roam if they follow the standard
format, alto some CPCs are sharing roam data on a limited basis to prevent
this. Even with PRV, ESN/MIN pairs that are spoofed to match valid accounts
will be accepted both by thier home CPC and roamed CPCs, until the legit
customer complains about the calls he didn't make. And even without PRV,
some CPCs automatically share ESN and MIN data. This frequently occurs
between the CPCs in major cities and those in their bedroom communities.
To call a roaming CMT, the caller must know which system that unit is in,
which can be a real trick since he may be on the road at the time. He then
calls the CPC's roaming number. Roaming numbers vary but usually are in the
phone number format (with area code, with the last four digits being
"ROAM", and with the 3 middle digits being the remote CPC's exchange).
When that number is called, a dial or ready tone is returned, after
which the roaming CMT's full MIN is entered in Touch-Tone. After several
seconds, the CMT will ring or the caller will hear a recording stating
that the roaming CMT is out of range or busy. Telocator Publications
(202) 467-4770 publishes a nationwide roaming directory for travellers
with celluar phones.
For example: I access the Cleveland Ohio Cellular 1's Ericcson switch
and I tell them by my NAM INfo that I'm a roamer from NYNEX in New York
City. Cleveland will let me make the call, bacause it bills back to NYC
for the number of minutes I use. If the NYC number is bogus , the call
goes thru anyway, and the bill doesn't go anywhere. They do know the
exchange data for NYC (that's on a chart) so you can't tell them a wrong
system number (two digits) but one that a valid roamer would have from
his area. This is not too hard to figure out, call some of their stupid
sales idiots some time and see what they let out of the bag.
The system number for the foreign exchange, NYNEX in Buffalo is 56,
Chicago nonwireline is 01, and Buffalo nonwireline is 03. All wirelines
are even numbers and all nonwirelines are odd. The first three digits
of the mobile number: NYNEX Buffalo 863-XXXX. Buffalo Non-wirelines
are 861-XXXX and 690-XXXX.
You dont have to be a rocket scientist to figure out the local numbers
for your area, again by conning the sales people. Until the CPC's get a
cellular clearinghouse to validate roamers in real time, this method
will work out fine. It will be awhile before it becomes routine to look
up a roamer. There's simply to many to look up every time service is
wanted. And this problem is increasing because of the expanding use of
cellular phones.
If a cellular phone and its antenna happen to fall into your hands, you
could re-nam it as a roamer and when you get it setup, make copies of the
info with different suscriber numbers (the last 4 digits) and make free
calls as long as you can.
THe Novatel series phone a re probaly the best radios to use to shut down
a cell site completely as it has secret codes in the control head that
allow you to bypass conventional switching protocols.

CELLULAR TELEPHONE PHREAKING PHILE SERIES VOL 1 by The Mad Phone-man
How would ya like to have a phone that no body could locate? How bout free
phone service on it too? Well Cellular telephones have the potential to do
all this and more. First lets discuss some basics of the service.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS:
--------------------
Q:What is cellular; a cellular phone?
A: A 800 mhz radiotelephone, running 3 watts, with the ability to change
channel on computer command from the central switch. This happens when you
travel thru the service area and your signal becomes stronger at a neighboring
cell base station.
Q: They are marketed as a high security device with no possibility of anyone
making a phoney call and charging it to someone else, how can it be phreaked?
A: An understanding of the phone reveals that every time a call is made, the
phone number,an electronic serial number, and other data is sent to the switch.
If you were to listen to the oposite side of the control channel as the call
is being "set-up" you would hear this data being transmitted to the switch in
NRZ code (non-return to zero). All one has to do, is record this info and
program the bogus phone to these params and a free call is possible thru the
switch.
Q: Has anyone done this yet?
A: YES, about 6 months after the first cellular phone system was "turned-up"
a technician programmed a panasonic telephone with a NEC E.S.N. (Electronic
serial number) this was reportedly done for a gram of coke. With the popular
ROM programmers available today, almost any NAM (Numeric Assignment Module)
can be duplicated or copied with changes. (The NAM is the heart of the billing
information and contains the phone number but not the ESN) The most popular
integrated circut for NAMs is the 74LS123.
Q: This sounds like a lot of trouble, is there easier ways to get service?
A: SURE, the cellphone companies have been their own downfall. In an effort
market their wares as a universal service (Your phone will work in any system)
they have let the cart get before the horse. Nobody can tell if a phone from
another city (that has a roaming agreement) is valid till its too late. The
only thing they could do after finding out is block any call with the bad
ESN because as we know, the phone number is easy to change, but the ESN is
not. So heres a likely plot...a roamer identifying itself as a number from
Chicago non-wireline accesses a Cellular system in Dallas. Sometimes an
operator intervienes but you can bullshit them as long as you know the
information you have programmed into your phone. Then you make calls just
like you are a local user. If you're found out, you remove the number,
change it to another, and see if that works. Usualy it will require the
radio's ESN chip to be changed, but thats a lot easier if you have a ZIF
(zero insertion force) socket installed, thats what I use.
Upcomming soon, more good info on particular mfgrs ESN codes.

CELLULAR TELEPHONE PHREAKING PHILE VOL 2 by "The Mad Phone-man"
Some terms you should understand:
Control Channel- The channel the phone and cell base first communicate on.
Reverse Control Ch- The oposite frequency, 45 mhz lower than the control
channel.This is where the mobile unit is.
Voice channel- The channel you are assigned by the switch to commence the
call on after the exchange of suscriber data.
Reverse voice channel- Again 45mhz lower.
Cell Site- The base station that talks to the mobile.
Switch- The computer that places the calls, and takes and recieves data
from the suscriber or from PSTN. (public switched tel netwk)
OK that should get things started. A suscriber picks up his handset to
place a call.
The phone has already been locked onto the strongest control ch in the
area by a computerized scanner in the phone. As he drives thru the service a
the computer constantly picks out the strongest control ch and stays on it,
altho more than one cell site can actualy be heard. The suscriber enters the
number to call on the keypad, and presses the "send" button. At this time th
folowing data is transmitted to the cell sit by the mobile. The callers
electronic serial number (ESN) , his home system number (two digits) his
mobile's area code and phone number, and the number he wants.The cellular
switch now picks up an outgoing line, places the call for him and tells
the mobile to switch to a voice channel. The two ends are linked in the
central switch and violla! A complete phone call, in about 3 seconds.
I have purposely over-simplified the whole process to point out the
moment of truth. The mobile's ESN and phone number and the data in the
switch must match or no go. This is how the billing is figgured out.If
one had the ESN and the mobilephone number, you could call anytine
anyplace without fear of trace, let alone bill. The ideal setup would
let you listen to the reverse control channel, record and display heard
working numbers and ESN's and recall them at your discression to make calls.
This would be tits! Were not quite there yet. But some hard work has
allready been done for us. All the aforementioned codes are sent
in hex, in NRZ code (phancy term for phase shift keying) but the phone
allready has, for example a NRZ receiver and transmitter built right in.
All that has to be done is to have a receiver on the reverse control
channel, recover the other suscribers data and save it or at least print
it out. The mobile radio data books show some good technical stuff on
the systems used and chip part numbers for the NRZ stuff. I know there
is a mfgr using the lowley 8085 chip for the control head functions,
seems like theres room for xperementin here.
More to come!... "The Mad Phone-man"

CELLULAR TELEPHONE PHREAKING PHILE VOL 3 by "The Mad Phone-man"
Now that you have become familiar with the technology of cellular phones
its time to discuss what you can do with a phone right now.
Not every system pays attention to a "Roamer" from outside the system as
closely as they do a local suscriber. In their mad rush to offer cellular as
"universal" service, meaning you can place a call in any cellular city any-
where in North America, they fucked up.
OK, heres the poop...I access say..Cleveland Ohio Cellular 1's Ericcson switch
and tell them by my "NAM" info that im a roamer from NYNEX in New York City.
Cleveland will let me make the call, cause it bills back to NYC my number
of minutes used. If the NYC number is bogus, the call goes thru, and the bill
doesn't go anywhere. They do know the exchange data for NYC, thats on a chart
so ya cant tell em yer...555-1212 or such..you must tell em yer a valid roamer
and the System number (two digits) must match NYC's. This is not too hard to
figgure out, (call some of their stupid sales idiots some time and see what
they will let out of the bag)...so now lets see what else you should know.
OK, the system number for the foreign exchange....Nynex in Buffalo is 56,
Chicago nonwireline is 01, Buffalo Nonwireline is 03, All wirelines are even
numbers all non-wirelines are odd.
OK, first three digits of the mobile number....Nynex Buffalo- 863 xxxx
Buffalo Non-wire 861 xxxx, 690 xxxx.
I am sure it wont take much to figgure out the local numbers for your area
like I said the sales people are fucks and will tell ya anything to
make a sale.
Until the companys get a cellular clearinghouse to validate roamers in real
time this will work out fine. The prospects of such a clearinghouse are
good after the companys get done with their bitching at each other.
But it may be a while before it becomes routine to look up a roamer. There's
simply too many to look up every time service is wanted.
So, steal a cellphone and his antenna, re-nam it as a roamer and when ya get
it setup, make copies of the info with different suscriber numbers (the
last 4 digits) and make free calls till whenever.
More to come...."The NOVATEL series phones "

This is probibaly the best radio to use to shut down
a cell site completely, it has secret codes in the ctrl
head that allow you to bypass conventional switching

CELLULAR TELEPHONE PROGRAMMING
Focusing on Fundamentals
By Damien Thorn
The ever-increasing use of cellular telephones has created a market for people with the skills to
install and program them. Installation is no more difficult than installing a CB radio, and
programming is accomplished by entering data via the keypad on the phone. Whether you want
to completely reprogram a new or used phone, or simply change your unlock code, there is no
reason to pay a dealer to do it when you can do it yourself in a matter of minutes.
In the early days of cellular technology, an external device such as a "programming handset" or
ROM programmer was required to "burn" the mobile telephone number and service information
into the phone. Today's cellular phones incorporate resident software that allows you to key in
the required information on the phone itself. When you are finished and satisfied you've entered
the correct data, the phone burns it to non-volatile memory with the push of a button.
To understand why the simple process of programming a cellular phone seems to be an industry
secret, you need to understand that it is a lucrative service offered by cellular dealers. There is
no profit to be made selling the phone hardware. Most dealers sell at close to cost just to remain
competitive. The real profits are derived from commissions received from the cellular carriers
(service providers) for getting customers to sign up with them.
Due to the widespread use of surface mount technology within the phone, service centers almost
always return them to the manufacturer for repair. Fortunately for these dealers, most service
problems are external, involving the antenna, connectors, cables or a need for reprogramming.
These are all relatively simple matters that can quickly be diagnosed and repaired in the shop,
thus generating income. Aside from the Federal and State regulations governing the sales and
service of cellular equipment (because it is a transmitter), only basic electronics skills and
minimal equipment are required to begin such a business.
INTRODUCTION TO CELLULAR PROGRAMMING
The purpose of this article is to present the fundamentals of cellular programming. I've also
included brief reviews and sources of publications that are essential to anyone interested in
pursuing cellular programming as a hobby or profession. The basic principals of programming
are the same from phone to phone. Each manufacturer (or model), however, has a unique
sequence of key strokes to access the programming mode as well as a few other programming
quirks. If you plan to work with more than one brand of phone, a publication containing
programming tables (or "templates") is a must.
The phone used for this article is a common Motorola transportable "bag phone." One reason
for selecting this phone is because I own one. The other is because Motorola is the most prolific
manufacturer of cellular phones. Also, the "universal" nature of the Motorola programming
instruction set used as an example can be used on most of their phones as presented herein.
Not only do they make gear bearing the Motorola brand name, they custom manufacture phones
for a variety of other vendors. Some examples include the brand names Ambassador, America
Series, Dynasty, Modar, Nautilus, Pulsar, Tracer, Blaupunkt, Nissan Infiniti, Toyota LEXUS, and
models for AUDI and Ford.
PRELUDE TO PROGRAMMING
Before you even begin to program a phone, you need to obtain the required data. If you just
want to change your unlock code, then you need to make up a convenient three-digit number.
Activating service on a used phone requires you to obtain certain information from the cellular
carrier providing you with service. Here is a description of the data you will need:
01) System Identification Number (SID): A five digit number that has been assigned to
identify the particular cellular carrier from whom you are obtaining service. This number
identifies your "home" system.
02) Area Code of Mobile Identification Number (MIN): Simply the area code of your
cellular telephone number. MIN is the "official" term for the phone number assigned to you by
the cellular company.
03) Mobile Identification Number (MIN): The MIN is the actual seven digit cellular
telephone number assigned by the cellular carrier exclusively to your phone.
04) Station Class Mark (SCM): A two-digit number that identifies certain capabilities of your
phone. How the cellular network handles your call is based on these digits. The SCM tells the
system whether your phone transmits at standard power levels or low power levels, if it can
utilize the full 832 channels or only the original 666 frequencies. The last attribute identified is
whether your phone employs voice-activated transmission (VOX).
A phone without VOX is continuously transmitting a carrier back to the cell site the entire time
your call is in progress. The VOX operation used in smaller phones allows the phone to transmit
only while you are actually talking. This reduces battery drain and enables handheld phones to
operate longer on a smaller battery than would be possible without VOX.
To determine the proper SCM for your phone, examine Table 1 and use the code that matches
the presence (or absence) of each of the attributes described above.
05) Access Overload Class (AOLC or ACCOLC): A two-digit number used to arbitrate who
gets dropped from the system (or refused access) when there are more calls in a cell than can be
handled at one time. This feature is allegedly disabled in most systems and no preferential
treatment is shown to any particular ACCOLC.
06) Group Identification Mark (GIM): The Group ID Mark is a two-digit number used by
cellular sites other than your home system to determine if you should be allowed access to the
system on "roam" status. This feature is not yet fully implemented.
07) Security Code: This six-digit number is used to prevent unauthorized or accidental
alteration of the data programmed in the phone. The factory default is 000000.
08) Unlock Code: This is a three-digit number required to unlock the phone when you have
electronically locked it to prevent unauthorized use. The factory default is "123", however many
cellular programmers change it to match the last three digits of your MIN (phone number).
09) Initial Paging Channel (IPCH): This is the channel number used by the cellular provider
to "page" the phones in use on the system. The term "paging" refers to notifying a particular
phone that it has an incoming call. All idle phones on a system monitor the data stream on the
IPCH. Non-wireline cellular carriers use channel 0333 as the IPCH, while wireline providers
(operated by a telephone company) utilize channel 0334.
10) Options programming byte A
11) Options programming byte B
The options bytes are six and three-digit binary numbers used to enable or disable certain options
on the phone. Each digit is either a "1" or "0".
Options byte A consists of six bits. We'll label them "ABCDEF" for our purposes, where each
letter represents a bit set to "1" or "0". Here is what each bit controls:
Bit "A" - Handset internal speaker: A "1" in this position disables the internal speaker of your
handset to facilitate the use of an external speaker/microphone combination. This bit is set to
"0" in a normal installation to allow normal operation of the handset speaker.
Bit "B" - Local Use bit provided for certain cellular carrier system requirements. This is
normally enabled with a "1".
Bit "C" - MIN mark bit: Usually disabled with a "0" in this field.
Bit "D" - Auto recall: The auto recall function is always enabled with a "1" in this position.
Bit "E" - Second phone number: If the phone has a dual system registration capability, and you
are in fact registered with two different cellular carriers, the function is enabled with a "1" in this
field. A "0" in this position indicates the standard cellular configuration having just one
telephone number.
Bit "F" - Diversity: This bit is used to enable diversity if your telephone is equipped with two
antenna connections (ports). If your phone uses just one antenna (standard), this bit is set to "1"
to disable diversity.
If the phone was of a standard configuration, the description above indicates that this option byte
would be programmed as "110100" with each bit enabling or disabling the specific option as
appropriate.
Option byte B operates in the exact same fashion, except the byte consists of only three bits,
controlling three options. We'll label the bits "ABC" where each letter represents a specific bit.
Bit "A" - Long tone DTMF: A "1" in this position enables long tone DTMF for end-to-end
signalling. This means that the phone will transmit a DTMF tone for as long as you depress a
key on the key pad. A "0" will disable this feature, causing the phone to send a short burst of
DTMF when you dial, no matter how long you hold down the key.
Bit "B" - A "0" in this position enables the internal speaker of a transportable phone to act as
the "ringer" to signal an incoming call. This feature can be disabled by programming a "1" in
this position if you have some ancillary device connected to signal ringing.
Bit "C" - Eight hour timeout: This feature is normally enabled with a "0" in this position.
When enabled, the phone will timeout and turn off if it has been left on continuously for eight
hours. This helps prevent the phone from completely draining the battery of your car if it is
inadvertently left on for an extended period without being used.
ENTERING PROGRAMMING MODE
Once you have determined the proper values for the data fields described above, you can get
down to the actual programming of the phone. With the above data in front of you, it becomes
a simple matter of punching it all in on the keypad.
To begin programming the phone, you need to enter the programming mode. Almost all
Motorola phones use one of six possible key stroke sequences to gain access to the programming
mode. These are numbered one through six and listed in Table 2.
Indexing the exhaustive list of model numbers to the appropriate sequence number is beyond the
scope of this article. It is not difficult to figure out, and whether or not the phone has a "Fcn"
(function) or "Ctl" (control) key narrows it down to one or two possibilities.
The security code used to enter the programming mode consists of six digits. It is keyed in
twice, as though it were a twelve digit number, and in a couple of the sequences is prefaced with
a zero for a total of thirteen digits. All Motorola phones are shipped new with the factory default
security code set to 000000. Most cellular programmers do not change this, as it only makes
reprogramming more difficult in the future.
Roughly 80% of the phones I've encountered retain the factory default security code. The other
20% had been changed to 123456 by a local cellular dealer. While the security code could
conceivably be any six digit number, you should be aware that this code is only useful to prevent
idle tampering with the programming, not lock out the personnel at other service centers.
The security code is by no means akin to the vault door protecting the contents of Fort Knox.
In the next issue of Nuts & Volts I'll show you how to build manual test adapter from one
inexpensive part obtainable at any Radio Shack store. This device will immediately allow you
to enter the programming mode without the security code. You can then view and change the
security code or all of the programming if you wish.
Once in programming mode, the phone will display "01" which indicates the phone is at the first
programming step (or field). Table 3 is a template of the programming steps, and you'll notice
that the step numbers correspond with the numbers prefacing my descriptions of the required data
above. The phone always displays the two-digit field identifier before displaying the data in that
particular field. This lets you know where you are in the programming sequence.
COFFEE BREAK: TIME FOR AN ASIDE
It would not be unusual for you to feel a bit overwhelmed right now. I was confused the first
time I attempted to program a cellular phone. If this is your first exposure to cellular
programming, may I suggest you grab a cup of coffee and reread the article up to this point
before you actually attempt the programming process.
At first the idea of security codes and determining the proper sequence necessary to access the
programming mode was disconcerting and a bit frustrating. Once this step had been
accomplished, I was delighted to discover how easy the actual programming was.
If you have difficulty accessing the programming mode, here is a helpful tip: Let's say the
phone is quiescent until you've keyed in the entire sequence, including the 13 digits comprising
the security code, but fails to display "01" after the final keystroke. This indicates that you are
using the correct sequence from Table 2, but the security code is incorrect.
If you are using the wrong keystroke sequence to enter programming mode, the phone will abort
in the midst of keying in the security code, because it fails to recognize why you are punching
in all the digits. If you are using the correct sequence to access the programming mode, the
display on the phone will not echo (display) the security code unless you are keying it in too
slowly.
KEYING IN THE DATA
The process leading up to this point is actually the majority of the work involved in programming
a cellular phone. Keying in the data is so easy that it's almost disappointing.
If you've successfully accessed the programming mode, your phone will display "01" to identify
the current field. Pressing "*" advances the display to the data in that field. You can then key
in new data and press "*" to advance to step "02", or press "*" without entering data to retain
the information currently stored within the field.
I just want to change my unlock code, so I need to advance to the field where this data is stored.
A quick glance at Table 3 tells me that my current unlock code is stored in field 08. To get to
this field, I need only to repeatedly press the "*" key to sequence the phone through the fields
without altering any of the data. When "08" is displayed, I know I've arrived at the field
containing my unlock code.
First I access the programming mode on my transportable phone by turning on the power and
keying in sequence number 4 from Table 2. I depress the "control" key on the side of the
handset and quickly punch in "0" followed by my security code twice (123456+123456) and
finally press the "*" key. The display shows "01" to let me know I am at field 01, the SID.
I press "*" to advance to the data, and the display shows "00224" which is my SID. I press "*"
again and the software sequences to the next step. "02" is now on the display. Another "*" and
the phone displays "209" which is the data in field 02 - my cellular area code. Depressing the
star key advances us to step "03" which is my MIN. Pressing "*" displays the contents of field
03, and yes, it certainly is my cellular telephone number (MIN).
Each time I press the "*" key the phone continues to advance to the next field number and then
displays the data stored there. Since I want to change my unlock code, I repeatedly press the "*"
key until the phone displays "08." This is the field containing that code.
Another "*" and my display shows "602" which is my current unlock code. I want to change
it to "977." With the old code in the display (602), I simply punch in the numbers 9+7+7.
The display now reads "977" which will be my new unlock code.
If I continued pressing the "*" key, the phone would sequence through the remaining fields until
it returned to "01." I could then advance through the fields again. You might want to do this,
just scrolling through the data programmed into your phone. Use Table C to identify the fields
as you look at the data stored in each.
If you accidentally alter the data in any of the fields while you are looking around, press the "#"
key to exit programming mode without saving any of the changes to memory. The "#" key will
abort the programming mode, leaving the previously stored information intact.
Since I changed my unlock code, I need to burn the new information to the Numeric Assignment
Module (NAM) in the phone. NAM is the term used to describe the EEPROM chip where the
program data is stored. To save the new information, I press "Snd" (Send). This burns the
changes to the NAM and exits the programming mode.
These are the keys to remember while programming a phone, or just exploring the current
programming: The "*" key advances to the next field or step. The "#" key aborts programming
without saving any changes. The "Snd" key saves all changes to the NAM and exits
programming mode. The "clr" (clear) key will restore a field to the previously stored data if you
make a mistake while keying in digits. You can then reenter the data correctly.
SUMMARY
We've covered a lot of material, and I commend your tenacity. Cellular programming is actually
an easy process. You now have a decent understanding of the fundamentals, and I assure you
that a bit of practice will lead to a surprising proficiency.
The information in this article is specific to cellular equipment manufactured by Motorola. Other
manufacturers use somewhat different templates and methods to access the programming mode.
If you want a deeper understanding of cellular programming or need the exact programming
templates and instructions for a variety of phones, I suggest you buy one of the publications
reviewed here.
If you own just one model of phone and need a template or other basic assistance, I don't mind
helping you out. You can contact me directly via mail at 6333 Pacific Avenue, Suite 203,
Stockton, CA 95207-3713. If you need me to provide detailed information, I would appreciate
it if you'd enclose a few dollars to help offset my expense. I welcome all comments, and
encourage suggestions for future articles.
Building a test adapter for Motorola phones is the subject of my article next month in Nuts &
Volts. Placing a phone in test mode will allow you to bypass the keystroke sequence and
security code to access programming mode. This is a device every cellular service person should
have.
In addition to getting around a security code long forgotten by a customer, you'll learn how to
reset the cumulative call timer, reset the NAM programming to default values and a host of other
interesting test functions such as accessing the built-in relative signal strength indicator (RSSI)
and channel number display available only when the phone is in test mode.

The SCM value appropriate to your cellular phone should be entered in programming field "04."
"Standard power" as used above refers to the RF output level of a transportable phone, or one
installed in a vehicle. "Low power" refers to the reduced RF output of handheld units.
Handheld phones utilize a lower power level not just because of their size and battery capacity.
Since the transmitter and antenna are a part of the handset, it was determined that radiating a full
three watts of RF just a few inches from your head might be unhealthy.

SOURCES: A Review of Available Publications
Every month I peruse the pages of Nuts & Volts with an eye for detail unmatched by the best
Revenue Agents employed by the IRS. Why? Because I have an insatiable appetite for
information - especially information surrounding technology that seems "inaccessible" to you and
me. As a result, I've purchased all four publications advertised herein that deal with cellular
communications. Each has unique features and all were worth the money. Here is my opinion
of each:
Cellular Programmer's Bible
The Cellular Programmer's Bible definitely lives up to it's name. Over 300 pages of nothing but
programming instructions for every conceivable cellular telephone manufactured. This tome
includes the factory preset security codes to greatly simplify access to the programming modes
of various phones. In addition to precisely detailing every programming sequence, each entry
includes invaluable technical information on channel capabilities, test modes, and other unique
tidbits applicable to the specific model of phone being described.
This volume is mandatory for anyone considering offering programming services to the public.
I discovered my Pac Tel Cellular customer service rep uses this same publication as his
programming reference, although he carries it in a nondescript binder.
Approximately 400 spiral bound 8.5 x 11" pages. $84.45.
Available from: TeleCode, P.O. Box 6426, Yuma, AZ, 85366-6426. (602) 782-2316.
Cellular Hacker's Bible
The Cellular Hacker's Bible is TeleCode's other cellular publication. About one third of this
book is devoted to programming templates for over thirty popular phones. The balance consists
of an elaborate technical dissertation describing the operation of the cellular network which reads
like a Bellcore technical document (coincidence?). From switching to timing and signalling
protocols - it's all here.
The attention to technical detail can be an engineer's dream or mind-numbing to the casual
reader. Although I occasionally became bogged down in things like "wink start signalling" and
multi-frequency (MF) call routing codes, I appreciated the excruciating detail when I came to the
18 pages listing each and every frequency in the radio spectrum allocated to the cellular network
by the FCC.
The reprogramming instructions are easy to follow, but not as comprehensive as the templates
in TeleCode's other publication (above).
Approximately 180 spiral bound 8.5 x 11" pages. $53.45.
Available from: TeleCode, P.O. Box 6426, Yuma, AZ, 85366-6426. (602) 782-2316.
Cellular Phone Phreaking
Technical documents published "for educational purposes only" by Consumertronics have a
unique format and tone not generally found in other books. John J. Williams, MSEE and
proprietor of the company, has a gift for presenting detailed technical information in an almost
conversational manner full of examples and anecdotes. Cellular Phone Phreaking is no exception.
The programming instructions are equivalent to those contained within TeleCode's Cellular
Hacker's Bible. The technical description of the cellular network is brief, and Williams includes
an abundance of information on how individuals have been known to perpetrate cellular fraud.
Included are relevant excerpts from various communications privacy laws, including the text of
the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA).
Of value to the technician or monitoring enthusiast are the mathematical algorithms necessary
to determine the cellular channel numbers based on the radio frequencies used.
While informative and entertaining, this book is a bit thin compared to the others, but Williams
crams in a lot of information by using small type and not wasting an inch of space.
Approximately 41 spiral bound 8.5 x 11" pages. $39.00.
Available from: Consumertronics, 2011 Crescent Drive, P.O. Box 88310, Alamogordo, NM
88310, (505) 434-0234.
Cellular Telephone Modification Handbook
The Cellular Telephone Modification Handbook is the one publication reviewed that is not really
a programming manual per se. It is a book explaining in detail how a hacker would change the
Electronic Serial Number (ESN) of a cellular phone. As a "security manual," the book holds
nothing back in precisely demonstrating how criminals can defraud the system by doing so. I
should note that a legitimate application for this information would be to "clone" a phone that
you already own.
By duplicating the ESN of your existing phone into another phone, you could use either unit at
any given time and avoid having to pay for an additional number and service for the second
phone. This seems analogous to adding an extension phone to your telephone service at home.
Why have a separate number for each "extension?" Cellular companies don't like it, but it
doesn't appear to be illegal. Emulating the phone of your local bank president in order to make
free calls is another story entirely.
In addition to basic "universal" programming guidelines, this book includes "screen dumps" of
PROM emulation software, lists of manufacturers' ESN prefixes and System Identification
Numbers (SIDs). Complete with sources for parts and equipment, as well as books and
magazines related to the field of cellular communications.
The representative I spoke with at Spy Supply provides programming support for their customers.
If you need assistance with a specific phone, he'll provide you with programming information
for that particular model at no charge. After purchasing the manual, I tested this service and
found that he could answer every question I threw at him without hesitation. The availability
of this invaluable resource elevates Spy Supply above the ranks of a typical publisher.
Approximately 52 spiral bound 8.5 x 11" pages. $79.95.
Available from: Spy Supply, 7 Colby Court, Suite 215, Bedford, NH 03110, (617) 327-7272.

THE ELECTRONIC SERIAL NUMBER: A CELLULAR 'SIEVE'?
'SPOOFERS' CAN DEFRAUD USERS AND CARRIERS
by Geoffrey S. Goodfellow, Robert N. Jesse, and Andrew H. Lamothe, Jr.
What's the greatest security problem with cellular phones? Is it privacy of
communications? No.
Although privacy is a concern, it will pale beside an even greater problem:
spoofing.
'Spoofing' is the process through which an agent (the 'spoofer') pretends to
be somebody he isn't by proffering false identification, usually with intent
to defraud. This deception, which cannot be protected against using the
current U.S. cellular standards, has the potential to create a serious
problem--unless the industry takes steps to correct some loopholes in the
present cellular standards.
Compared to spoofing, the common security concern of privacy is not so severe.
Most cellular subscribers would, at worst, be irked by having their
conversational privacy violated. A smaller number of users might actually
suffer business or personal harm if their confidential exchanges were
compromised. For them, voice encryption equipment is becoming increasingly
available if they are willing to pay the price for it.
Thus, even though technology is available now to prevent an interloper from
overhearing sensitive conversations, cellular systems cannot--at any
cost--prevent pirates from charging calls to any account. This predicament is
not new to the industry. Even though cellular provides a modern,
sophisticated quality mobile communications service, it is not fundamentally
much safer than older forms of mobile telephony.
History of Spoofing Vulnerability
The earliest form of mobile telephony, unsquelched manual Mobile Telephone
Service (MTS), was vulnerable to interception and eavesdropping. To place a
call, the user listened for a free channel. When he found one, he would key
his microphone to ask for service: 'Operator, this is Mobile 1234; may I
please have 555-7890.' The operator knew to submit a billing ticket for
account number 1234 to pay for the call. So did anybody else listening to the
channel--hence the potential for spoofing and fraud.
Squelched channel MTS hid the problem only slightly because users ordinarily
didn't overhear channels being used by other parties. Fraud was still easy
for those who turned off the squelch long enough to overhear account numbers.
Direct-dial mobile telephone services such as Improved Mobile Telephone
Service (IMTS) obscured the problem a bit more because subscriber
identification was made automatically rather than by spoken exchange between
caller and operator. Each time a user originated a call, the mobile telephone
transmitted its identification number to the serving base station using some
form of Audio Frequency Shift Keying (AFSK), which was not so easy for
eavesdroppers to understand.
Committing fraud under IMTS required modification of the mobile--restrapping
of jumpers in the radio unit, or operating magic keyboard combinations in
later units--to reprogram the unit to transmit an unauthorized identification
number. Some mobile control heads even had convenient thumb wheel switches
installed on them to facilitate easy and frequent ANI (Automatic Number
Identification) changes.
Cellular Evolution
Cellular has evolved considerably from these previous systems. Signaling
between mobile and base stations uses high-speed digital techniques and
involves many different types of digital messages. As before, the cellular
phone contains its own Mobile Identification Number (MIN), which is programmed
by the seller or service shop and can be changed when, for example, the phones
sold to a new user. In addition, the U.S. cellular standard incorporates a
second number, the 'Electronic Serial Number' (ESN), which is intended to
uniquely and permanently identify the mobile unit.
According to the Electronic Industries Association (EIA) Interim Standard
IS-3-B, Cellular System Mobile Station--Land Station Compatibility
Specification (July 1984), 'The serial number is a 32-bit binary number that
uniquely identifies a mobile station to any cellular system. It must be
factory-set and not readily alterable in the field. The circuitry that
provides the serial number must be isolated from fraudulent contact and
tampering. Attempts to change the serial number circuitry should render the
mobile station inoperative.'
The ESN was intended to solve two problems the industry observed with its
older systems.
First, the number of subscribers that older systems could support fell far
short of the demand in some areas, leading groups of users to share a single
mobile number (fraudulently) by setting several phones to send the same
identification. Carriers lost individual user accountability and their means
of predicting and controlling traffic on their systems.
Second, systems had no way of automatically detecting use of stolen equipment
because thieves could easily change the transmitted identification.
In theory, the required properties of the ESN allow cellular systems to check
to ensure that only the correctly registered unit uses a particular MIN, and
the ESNs of stolen units can be permanently denied service ('hot-listed').
This measure is an improvement over the older systems, but vulnerabilities
remain.
Ease of ESN Tampering
Although the concept of the unalterable ESN is laudable in theory, weaknesses
are apparent in practice. Many cellular phones are not constructed so that
'attempts to change the serial number circuitry renders the mobile station
inoperative.' We have personally witnessed the trivial swapping of one ESN
chip for another in a unit that functioned flawlessly after the switch was
made.
Where can ESN chips be obtained to perform such a swap? We know of one recent
case in the Washington, D.C. area in which an ESN was 'bought' from a local
service shop employee in exchange for one-half gram of cocaine. Making the
matter simpler, most manufacturers are using industry standard Read-Only
Memory (ROM) chips for their ESNs, which are easily bought and programmed or
copied.
Similarly, in the spirit of research, a west coast cellular carrier copied the
ESN from one manufacturer's unit to another one of the same type and
model--thus creating two units with the exact same identity.
The ESN Bulletin Board
For many phones, ESN chips are easy to obtain, program, and install. How does
a potential bootlegger know which numbers to use? Remember that to obtain
service from a system, a cellular unit must transmit a valid MIN (telephone
number) and (usually) the corresponding serial number stored in the cellular
switch's database.
With the right equipment, the ESN/MIN pair can be read right off the air
because the mobile transmits it each time it originates a call. Service shops
can capture this information using test gear that automatically receives and
decodes the reverse, or mobile-to-base, channels.
Service shops keep ESN/MIN records on file for units they have sold or
serviced, and the carriers also have these data on all of their subscribers.
Unscrupulous employees could compromise the security of their customers'
telephones.
In many ways, we predict that 'trade' in compromised ESN/MIN pairs will
resemble what currently transpires in the long distance telephone business
with AT&T credit card numbers and alternate long-distance carrier (such as
MCI, Sprint and Alltel) account codes. Code numbers are swapped among
friends, published on computer 'bulletin boards' and trafficked by career
criminal enterprises.
Users whose accounts are being defrauded might--or might not--eventually
notice higher-than-expected bills and be reassigned new numbers when they
complain to the carrier. Just as in the long distance business, however, this
number 'turnover' (deactivation) won't happen quickly enough to make abuse
unprofitable. Catching pirates in the act will be even tougher than it is in
the wireline telephone industry because of the inherent mobility of mobile
radio.
Automating Fraud
Computer hobbyists and electronics enthusiasts are clever people. Why should
a cellular service thief 'burn ROMs' and muck with hardware just to install
new IDs in his radio? No Herculean technology is required to 'hack' a phone
to allow ESN/MIN programming from a keyboard, much like the IMTS phone thumb
wheel switches described above.
Those not so technically inclined may be able to turn to mail-order
entrepreneurs who will offer modification kits for cellular fraud, much as
some now sell telephone toll fraud equipment and pay-TV decoders.
At least one manufacturer is already offering units with keyboard-programmable
MINs. While intended only for the convenience of dealers and service shops,
and thus not described in customer documentation, knowledgeable and/or
determined end users will likely learn the incantations required to operate
the feature. Of course this does not permit ESN modification, but easy MIN
reprogrammability alone creates a tremendous liability in today's roaming
environment.
The Rolls Royce of this iniquitous pastime might be a 'Cellular Cache-Box.' It
would monitor reverse setup channels and snarf ESN/MIN pairs off the air,
keeping a list in memory. Its owner could place calls as on any other
cellphone. The Cache-Box would automatically select an ESN/MIN pair from its
catalog, use it once and then discard it, thus distributing its fraud over
many accounts. Neither customer nor service provider is likely to detect the
abuse, much less catch the perpetrator.
As the history of the computer industry shows, it is not far-fetched to
predict explosive growth in telecommunications and cellular that will bring
equipment prices within reach of many experimenters. Already we have seen the
appearance of first-generation cellular phones on the used market, and new
units can be purchased for well under $1000 in many markets.
How High The Loss?
Subscribers who incur fraudulent charges on their bills certainly can't be
expected to pay them. How much will fraud cost the carrier? If the charge is
for home-system airtime only, the marginal cost to the carrier of providing
that service is not as high as if toll charges are involved. In the case of
toll charges, the carrier suffers a direct cash loss. The situation is at its
worst when the spoofer pretends to be a roaming user. Most inter-carrier
roaming agreements to date make the user's home carrier (real or spoofed)
responsible for charges, who would then be out hard cash for toll and airtime
charges.
We have not attempted to predict the dollar losses this chicanery might
generate because there isn't enough factual information information for anyone
to guess responsibly. Examination of current estimates of long-distance-toll
fraud should convince the skeptic.
Solutions
The problems we have described are basically of two types. First, the ESN
circuitry in most current mobiles is not tamper-resistant, much less
tamper-proof. Second and more importantly, the determined perpetrator has
complete access to all information necessary for spoofing by listening to the
radio emissions from valid mobiles because the identification information
(ESN/MIN) is not encrypted and remains the same with each transmission.
Manufacturers can mitigate the first problem by constructing mobiles that more
realistically conform to the EIA requirements quoted above. The second
problem is not beyond solution with current technology, either. Well-known
encryption techniques would allow mobiles to identify themselves to the
serving cellular system without transmitting the same digital bit stream each
time. Under this arrangement, an interloper receiving one transmission could
not just retransmit the same pattern and have it work a second time.
An ancillary benefit of encryption is that it would reasonably protect
communications intelligence--the digital portion of each transaction that
identifies who is calling whom when.
The drawback to any such solution is that it requires some re-engineering in
the Mobile-Land Station Compatibility Specification, and thus new software or
hardware for both mobiles and base stations. The complex logistics of
establishing a new standard, implementing it, and retrofitting as much of the
current hardware as possible certainly presents a tough obstacle, complicated
by the need to continue supporting the non-encrypted protocol during a
transition period, possibly forever.
The necessity of solving the problem will, however, become apparent. While we
presently know of no documented cases of cellular fraud, the vulnerability of
the current standards and experience with similar technologies lead us to
conclude that it is inevitable. Failure to take decisive steps promptly will
expose the industry to a far more expensive dilemma. XXX

CELLULAR TELEPHONE MANUAL TEST MODE
How to Build and Use Programming Aids
By Damien Thorn
Over the last few months in Nuts & Volts we've taken a close look at cellular technology. From
an overview of the network to a "hands-on" tutorial covering cellular telephone reprogramming.
This article introduces the construction and use of a manual test adapter to assist in
reprogramming or diagnosing problems in various cellular phones.
You can build this device in about five minutes with one part from your local computer store or
Radio Shack. The simplicity is elegant, and belies the powerful control you can achieve over
your cellular hardware. Need to bypass the security code usually required for programming, or
display the relative signal strength indication (RSSI) on a specific cellular channel? With a
manual test adapter you're just a few keystrokes away from this and more.
INTRODUCTION
As I mentioned last month, there is little money to be made by cellular dealers in the sales of
equipment. Hardware prices are so competitive that most dealers sell new equipment at close
to cost. Dealers make their profit through commissions for signing up subscribers for cellular
service, and by installation and repair.
Installing cellular phones is comparable to installing a CB radio, and less difficult than wiring
a car stereo. Modern cellular phones are so reliable that the phone itself rarely needs to be
serviced. Ancillary equipment such as wiring and antennas are usually the cause of any
malfunction. Probably the most common service operation is programming.
Whether you are activating cellular service for the first time, or moving to another city, your
cellular phone must be reprogrammed with specific data supplied by the cellular service provider
(carrier). Even changing the unlock code on the phone requires reprogramming in many
instances, often associated with a fee ranging from $15-50.00.
The vast majority of contemporary cellular phones are programmed by punching in the data right
on the keypad without the aid of any external programming device. And this service is often
performed by shop personnel with little technical skill. With a programming manual in front of
her, I watched the receptionist at a local dealer program a phone that was being exchanged by
a customer.
I use this example to illustrate how easy it is to reprogram a phone. There is really no reason
you or I cannot perform this task ourselves and save money. Reprogramming can also become
a profitable additional service offered by independent technicians.
Motorola's Test Mode
Motorola is probably the largest manufacturer of cellular phones. In addition to their own
brands, they make phones for a plethora of other companies. I've always admired the quality
of Motorola communications equipment, and the test mode engineered into their cellular firmware
has scored them a few more points in my book.
The test mode is designed to be of assistance to cellular technicians in the field, and is entered
by grounding a specific pin on one of the phone's connectors. Once in test mode, the technician
has manual control over many of the functions normally automated by the firmware. The phone
display can now be used to indicate the status of various operational parameters.
The most useful functions to the hobbyist and professional programmer alike are those which
allow the data stored in the Numeric Assignment Module (NAM) to be reviewed and changed.
This is not much different from using the standard programming mode, except no special
keyboard sequences and security codes are required for access. The manual test mode effectively
bypasses the software "front door" commonly used to enter programming mode, and is invaluable
when the security code is unknown or has long since been forgotten.
The rest of this article details the construction of a test adapter and explains its use as applicable
to cellular programming. From this point on I'm assuming you've read my previous article or
otherwise have at least a basic knowledge of cellular programming.
The basic style of the Motorola-manufactured phone will determine how you go about placing
the unit in test mode. Palm-size folded phones and the one-piece hand held devices do not
require and adapter. A jumper between the contact designated as the "test line" and ground is
all that is required.
Activating Test Mode: Hand held Phones
If your phone is one of the hand held types, slide the battery pack off the unit. The battery pack
also serves as the rear of the phone's external case. On the top rear of the phone you should see
twelve contacts arranged in two horizonal rows as depicted in Photo #1.
Before you go any further, you should look at the model number of the phone located on the
back of the handset. A typical model number is "F09FSF9797." The fourth letter (underlined)
in this string is important. This indicates the phone is of the Motorola "F" series and contains
firmware that is programmed to allow us to use the manual test mode. The older "D" series
phones do not contain the appropriate firmware, and are not even programmable from the keypad.
Do not attempt this procedure on a "D" series phone.
Another way to make sure the phone is of the "F" or higher (G, H, I, etc.) series as opposed to
the older "D" series is to examine the plastic shroud which extends from the top of the phone
and partly covers the RF switch/antenna connector housing. The "F" (and newer) series phones
have various notches molded into the plastic shroud as can be seen in the photo.
To reiterate, if the model number contains the letter "D" as the fourth character, it does not have
a test mode, and cannot be reprogrammed from the keypad. Do not attempt to place it in test
mode or you may damage the phone. Once you are certain the phone is of the "F" or higher
series, you may proceed.
The contact which serves as the test line is #6. This is the contact to the far right in the upper
row, and should be the last (and sixth) of the contacts comprising the top row of contacts.
Making a connection between this contact and ground will cause the phone to enter the test mode
when powered up.
The most convenient way I've found to accomplish this in lieu of a special adapter or modified
battery pack is to use a small piece of wire as a jumper. The short lengths that come with the
Radio Shack RS-232 jumper box we'll be discussing later work perfectly, right out of the
package!
To jump contact #6 to ground, I use a very small jewelers screwdriver to carefully wedge one
of the solder-tinned ends of my jumper into the space between the contact and the plastic edge
to the right. The snug fit assures decent electrical contact and helps keep the jumper in place.
The other end of the jumper is gently inserted in the crevice on the RF switch housing. This
bare metal area is the most convenient ground and will even hold the end of the jumper.
Once you have the jumper connected, you need to flatten it against the phone so that you can
slide the battery back on without dislodging it. Photo #2 depicts the jumper in the proper
position to clear the battery pack.
Palm-size Folded Phones
The "Micro TAC" variety of miniature folded phones ("Flip-Fones") manufactured by Motorola
usually require a special battery to activate the test mode. You can simulate this battery with
your standard battery, however.
After removing the battery from the phone, you should see three contacts in a row located in the
lower right area of the phone. The two outer contacts are the battery connections. Positive "+"
is to the left, and negative "-" is to the right.
The center contact is somewhat recessed and does not make contact with the standard battery.
Your battery however, should have a mating third contact present. To place the phone in test
mode, you need to get the center contact to mate with the center contact on the battery. Strategic
use of a small piece of folded metal foil, solder wick or similar conductive material can be used
to extend the center contact on the phone so that it will make contact with the third terminal of
the battery.
If you attempt this procedure, immediately power up the phone to make sure you have not
shorted the battery terminals. If the phone does not come on at all or feels warm to the touch,
quickly remove the battery. A shorted NiCad battery can explode, causing serious injury.
MINI-TR or Silver MiniTac phones
Two specific phones - Motorola's MINI-TR or Silver MiniTac units can be placed in
programming mode by shorting the two contacts of the hands-free microphone connector.
Mobile Installations & Transportable Phones
These common phones are the type that consist of a handset connected to a separate transceiver
unit by a coiled cable resembling the receiver cord of a standard landline telephone. The handset
cable is terminated with a modular connector and plugged in to a jack. The control cable from
the jack carries the handset, power and options wiring. This control cable is connected to the
transceiver with a 25-pin DB25 connector as depicted in Photo #3.
These phones are also placed in manual test mode by grounding the test line. The easiest way
to accomplish this is by building a small test adapter (also known as a "programming aid"). This
device is placed between the control cable and transceiver DB25 connectors allowing all the
signals to pass through unaffected with the exception of jumping the test line to audio ground.
Building the Test Adapter
Construction of the test adapter is pretty straight forward. The same DB25 connectors used by
Motorola have been used for years as the standard RS-232-C connector on computer equipment.
You can easily pick up a serial RS-232 inline jumper box from your local computer, electronics
or Radio Shack store. The part number at Radio Shack is #276-1403 and lists for $9.95 in their
1993 catalog.
The Radio Shack jumper box is designed for maximum flexibility and as such does not have any
of the pins preconnected. Each trace on the circuit board connecting the pins has a small break
which you will need to bridge with solder to allow the signals to pass through. Examine the PC
board before beginning and follow a few of the traces. Note the difference between the break
in each trace and the small solder pads used for connecting jumpers. You only need to bridge
the traces.
Once you've applied a small dab of solder to restore the integrity of each trace, you are ready
to install the jumper. The test line on these Motorola phones is pin #21. Pin #20 is the audio
ground line. You want to jumper (short) these two pins.
Small numbers etched on the PC board indicate the jumper point for each pin. Locate the
numbers 20 and 21 next to the small solder pads. Using one of the short jumper wires provided
with the device, place the ends through these two holes and solder them down on the opposite
side of the board. Photo #4 depicts proper jumper installation, although I left one end of the
jumper unsoldered to illustrate it going through the board to be soldered on the other side.
That completes the construction of a handy programming aid for Motorola cellular phones, and
you have a small packet of left over jumpers that are perfect for jumpering the test line contact
on the hand held units. Be sure to save them.
To use the test adapter, place it between the control (handset) cable and the transceiver as shown
in Photo #5.
Test Mode Commands
Once you've jumpered the appropriate contact or applied the test adapter, it's time to turn on the
phone. When the phone powers up, a series of digits should appear in the display similar to
those shown in Photo #6. They should alternate with another series of digits. This indicates
your phone is in the manual test mode.
One display consists of two numbers, each three digits in length. The set to the right is the
channel number designator for the specific cellular frequency the phone is receiving from your
local cell site (tower). The right-most trio is the relative signal strength indication (RSSI) of the
received frequency.
The seven-digit number alternating with the channel/RSSI display provides the technician with
additional status information. Each individual digit in the field is actually an independent status
register. With a letter substituted for each of the seven digits, this is what they represent:
A B C D E F G
Position A - SAT Frequency. Indicates which of the three SAT lock frequencies is being used
by the phone. In this position a "0" = 5970Hz, "1" = 6000Hz, "2" = 6030Hz, "3" = No SAT
lock.
Position B - Carrier Status indication. "0" = carrier off, "1" = carrier on.
Position C - Signalling Tone. "0" = tone off, "1" = tone on.
Position D - RF Power Attenuation Level. "0" through "7" are valid values.
Position E - Channel designation. A "0" = voice channel, "1" = control data channel.
Position F - Audio Mute (receive). "1" = received audio is muted, "0" = unmuted.
Position G - Audio Mute (transmit). "1" = transmitted audio is muted. "0" = unmuted.
The meaning of all these status registers is fairly complex and has no bearing on cellular
reprogramming. This display, like the majority of the test commands, are only of value to an
engineer placing the phone under test with a cellular service monitor.
Table "A" lists the test commands that can be of assistance in reprogramming. I have omitted
the test commands designed for use with a service monitor, as issuing them without the phone
connected to a monitor may cause interference to the cellular network. You may own the phone,
but the cellular provider owns the FCC license that allows you to use it. Operating the
transmitter in the phone in a manner inconsistent with this license could subject you to loss of
service and possible legal trouble.
Issuing Commands
If your phone did not come up with the status display described above, you may need to
manually instruct the phone to do so. Pressing "#" enters the test command mode, and "02#" is
the command to display the status registers. If you enter a command improperly, the phone will
scroll the word "error" across the display.
If you need to review the current programming data stored in the NAM, enter "55#" which
instructs the phone to enter the programming mode. You can scroll through the contents of
NAM displaying the stored values by repeatedly pressing the "*" key. Actual reprogramming
through this mode is considerably more difficult than through the standard programming mode.
The test mode does not display a step number to let you know what programming step you are
at, and the information is stored and displayed in a different order.
Many programmers simply use this mode to obtain the security code, exit test mode and program
the phone in the normal fashion. As you step through the NAM contents with the "*" key, the
security code is the only six-digit number you'll see that isn't binary. Once you've written it
down, continue to step through NAM until you see the "tick mark" in the display (it looks like
an apostrophe) and exit test mode by turning off the phone.
Motorola designed their phones so that they could only be programmed three times. I don't
know the rationale for this, but a firmware counter increments each time the phone is
reprogrammed, and after the third time it will no longer enter programming mode. The
instruction booklet that accompanies the phone instructs you to take it to the dealer where you
bought it.
If you took the phone to a dealer, they would put the phone in test mode (just like we're doing)
and enter the command "32#" which resets the counter to zero, allowing the phone to be
reprogrammed three more times. Do it yourself and save!
Many phones also have a cumulative call timer that counts the total number of minutes the phone
has been used for calls (actively transmitting). This "autonomous timer" (that you were told was
not resetable) can be cleared and reset to zero by punching in "03#" while in test mode.
Another useful command is "38#" which causes the phone to display the Electronic Serial
Number (ESN) that is burned in ROM. The phone will display the ESN one hex byte at a time.
Press "*" to increment to the next byte. Note that the display shows four numbers. The two to
the left indicate which byte you are viewing (00, 01, 02 or 03), and the actual value of that byte
is at the right of the display.
You can punch in "19#" if you'd like to view the software version number resident in your
phone.
Conclusion
You should now have an understanding of the test mode inherent in cellular phones manufactured
by Motorola, and if you've followed this series of articles in recent issues of Nuts & Volts, the
operation of the cellular network and reprogramming procedures are no longer so mysterious.
Your questions and comments are always welcome, and you can write or send E-mail directly
to me as mentioned below. If plan to do much programming or would like detailed information
on the cellular network, you would benefit greatly by investing in one of the detailed technical
publications offered in these very pages. I've listed the publishers of several good volumes in
a sidebar, and you'll find their ads scattered throughout this magazine.
As a final note, you should be aware that the use of this information is undertaken at your own
risk. Although most of this information was triple-checked against available technical
documentation, none of it originated directly from Motorola. I doubt you'll have a problem, but
you never know when a manufacturer might change their specifications.

Cellular Telephones
[Written By The High Evolutionary]
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
I assume that most of us know many of the technical aspects of Cellular
Phreaking therefore this file is intended for general information as to how
these unique devices operate.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Cellular is likely to be successful because it provides dramatic
improvements over the historic automobile phones. For years, mobile
radio-telephone service was an extremely limited proposition. There were only
forty-four radio channels available, and a maximum of about thirty were
assigned to any one area. That meant if all thirty channels were occupied-one
conversation per channel-and you were the thirty-first mobile phone user who
wished to make a call, you would have to wait thirty minutes or more, even in a
city the size of New York. As you can imagine, mobile radio-telephone service
like that could not become very popular. Even with the limited number of
channels, long delays in making calls during busy periods, and often poor
quality transmission, there were big waiting lists for mobile service. But
with a fully equipped cellular radio-telephone system, it is possible to make
5000 times as many calls simultaneously in the same metropolitan area, opening
up the service to anyone that can pay the hefty prices.
That is because cellular radio-telephones systems are technically quite
different from traditional mobile telephones. First, the FCC (Federal
Communications Commission) has allocated far more channels to cellular, 666 in
all. Second, those 666 channels are broadcast from many different locations.
In the old mobile telephone systems, there was one powerful radio station with
a large antenna that served an entire city. In the new system, a geographical
area is honeycombed with many cells, hence the name 'Cellular'. Each cell has
its own low-powered radio transmitter and receiver. As a car with a cellular
telephone or a person carrying a portable moves from one cell to the next, the
call is transferred automatically. You're unlikely to notice when this
transfer takes place, even though your phone is suddenly switched to a
different radio station and to another channel while you are talking.
Because the cellular signal is low-powered, it doesn't go very far. This
permits the same channel you are talking on to be used for calls in other parts
of the same metropolitan area without interference. This would mean cellular
radio-telephone systems can serve a very large number of customers in an area
because there are more channels than before-and the larger number of channels
are reused.
Unlike local telephone service, which is provided by a monopoly, there is
competition in cellular. Two classes of companies are allowed to offer
cellular telephone service in every market. One cellular system can be owned
by a telephone company, the other by someone else. The two-company rule was
adopted by the FCC so that AT&T, which developed cellular, could not monopolize
the whole thing.
Cellular Telephones come in two basic versions, as car phones and portable
phones, with a briefcase hybrid. Car phones are by far the most common,
because they are much cheaper. But most believe that, ultimately, portables
will be the most popular. Washington Post Company president Richard Simmons,
whose company is a partner in several cellular systems, even predicts that by
the early 1990's "There will be phones roughly the size of a calculators that
you carry around in your pocket. They will cost no more than five hundred
dollars. They will emancipate people from the necessity of locating a phone to
make calls. The bad news is, you will never be able to get away from the phone,
and we'll call it progress."
Car telephones include a small transmitter-receiver unit that is usually
mounted in the trunk, an antenna and a control head that includes the handset.
In most cellular systems, the telephone touchpad is located on the handset.
Many domestic and foreign manufacturers make cellular car phones, but so far
only Motorola makes portables, the DYNA T-A-C 8000X and 8000S. Motorola's
portables look like a slightly enlarged, somewhat chunky telephone handset,
with a stubby antenna at one end.
Portables are less powerful than car units, so they can't be used with some
cellular systems. The portable's other limitation is battery life. A portable
can listen for calls for about eight hours, but it can only transmit for only
thirty minutes. After that time it must be charged for a minimum of an hour.
The following American cities have cellular telephone service or soon will
get it:
New York Denver
Los Angeles Seattle
Chicago Milwaukee
Philadelphia Tampa
Detroit Cincinnati
Boston Kansas City
San Francisco Buffalo
Washington Phoenix
Dallas San Jose
Houston Indianapolis
St. Louis New Orleans

THE ELECTRONIC SERIAL NUMBER: A CELLULAR 'SIEVE'?
'SPOOFERS' CAN DEFRAUD USERS AND CARRIERS
by Geoffrey S. Goodfellow, Robert N. Jesse, and Andrew H. Lamothe, Jr.
What's the greatest security problem with cellular phones? Is it privacy of
communications? No.
Although privacy is a concern, it will pale beside an even greater problem:
spoofing.
'Spoofing' is the process through which an agent (the 'spoofer') pretends to
be somebody he isn't by proffering false identification, usually with intent
to defraud. This deception, which cannot be protected against using the
current U.S. cellular standards, has the potential to create a serious
problem--unless the industry takes steps to correct some loopholes in the
present cellular standards.
Compared to spoofing, the common security concern of privacy is not so severe.
Most cellular subscribers would, at worst, be irked by having their
conversational privacy violated. A smaller number of users might actually
suffer business or personal harm if their confidential exchanges were
compromised. For them, voice encryption equipment is becoming increasingly
available if they are willing to pay the price for it.
Thus, even though technology is available now to prevent an interloper from
overhearing sensitive conversations, cellular systems cannot--at any
cost--prevent pirates from charging calls to any account. This predicament is
not new to the industry. Even though cellular provides a modern,
sophisticated quality mobile communications service, it is not fundamentally
much safer than older forms of mobile telephony.
History of Spoofing Vulnerability
The earliest form of mobile telephony, unsquelched manual Mobile Telephone
Service (MTS), was vulnerable to interception and eavesdropping. To place a
call, the user listened for a free channel. When he found one, he would key
his microphone to ask for service: 'Operator, this is Mobile 1234; may I
please have 555-7890.' The operator knew to submit a billing ticket for
account number 1234 to pay for the call. So did anybody else listening to the
channel--hence the potential for spoofing and fraud.
Squelched channel MTS hid the problem only slightly because users ordinarily
didn't overhear channels being used by other parties. Fraud was still easy
for those who turned off the squelch long enough to overhear account numbers.
Direct-dial mobile telephone services such as Improved Mobile Telephone
Service (IMTS) obscured the problem a bit more because subscriber
identification was made automatically rather than by spoken exchange between
caller and operator. Each time a user originated a call, the mobile telephone
transmitted its identification number to the serving base station using some
form of Audio Frequency Shift Keying (AFSK), which was not so easy for
eavesdroppers to understand.
Committing fraud under IMTS required modification of the mobile--restrapping
of jumpers in the radio unit, or operating magic keyboard combinations in
later units--to reprogram the unit to transmit an unauthorized identification
number. Some mobile control heads even had convenient thumb wheel switches
installed on them to facilitate easy and frequent ANI (Automatic Number
Identification) changes.
Cellular Evolution
Cellular has evolved considerably from these previous systems. Signaling
between mobile and base stations uses high-speed digital techniques and
involves many different types of digital messages. As before, the cellular
phone contains its own Mobile Identification Number (MIN), which is programmed
by the seller or service shop and can be changed when, for example, the phones
sold to a new user. In addition, the U.S. cellular standard incorporates a
second number, the 'Electronic Serial Number' (ESN), which is intended to
uniquely and permanently identify the mobile unit.
According to the Electronic Industries Association (EIA) Interim Standard
IS-3-B, Cellular System Mobile Station--Land Station Compatibility
Specification (July 1984), 'The serial number is a 32-bit binary number that
uniquely identifies a mobile station to any cellular system. It must be
factory-set and not readily alterable in the field. The circuitry that
provides the serial number must be isolated from fraudulent contact and
tampering. Attempts to change the serial number circuitry should render the
mobile station inoperative.'
The ESN was intended to solve two problems the industry observed with its
older systems.
First, the number of subscribers that older systems could support fell far
short of the demand in some areas, leading groups of users to share a single
mobile number (fraudulently) by setting several phones to send the same
identification. Carriers lost individual user accountability and their means
of predicting and controlling traffic on their systems.
Second, systems had no way of automatically detecting use of stolen equipment
because thieves could easily change the transmitted identification.
In theory, the required properties of the ESN allow cellular systems to check
to ensure that only the correctly registered unit uses a particular MIN, and
the ESNs of stolen units can be permanently denied service ('hot-listed').
This measure is an improvement over the older systems, but vulnerabilities
remain.
Ease of ESN Tampering
Although the concept of the unalterable ESN is laudable in theory, weaknesses
are apparent in practice. Many cellular phones are not constructed so that
'attempts to change the serial number circuitry renders the mobile station
inoperative.' We have personally witnessed the trivial swapping of one ESN
chip for another in a unit that functioned flawlessly after the switch was
made.
Where can ESN chips be obtained to perform such a swap? We know of one recent
case in the Washington, D.C. area in which an ESN was 'bought' from a local
service shop employee in exchange for one-half gram of cocaine. Making the
matter simpler, most manufacturers are using industry standard Read-Only
Memory (ROM) chips for their ESNs, which are easily bought and programmed or
copied.
Similarly, in the spirit of research, a west coast cellular carrier copied the
ESN from one manufacturer's unit to another one of the same type and
model--thus creating two units with the exact same identity.
The ESN Bulletin Board
For many phones, ESN chips are easy to obtain, program, and install. How does
a potential bootlegger know which numbers to use? Remember that to obtain
service from a system, a cellular unit must transmit a valid MIN (telephone
number) and (usually) the corresponding serial number stored in the cellular
switch's database.
With the right equipment, the ESN/MIN pair can be read right off the air
because the mobile transmits it each time it originates a call. Service shops
can capture this information using test gear that automatically receives and
decodes the reverse, or mobile-to-base, channels.
Service shops keep ESN/MIN records on file for units they have sold or
serviced, and the carriers also have these data on all of their subscribers.
Unscrupulous employees could compromise the security of their customers'
telephones.
In many ways, we predict that 'trade' in compromised ESN/MIN pairs will
resemble what currently transpires in the long distance telephone business
with AT&T credit card numbers and alternate long-distance carrier (such as
MCI, Sprint and Alltel) account codes. Code numbers are swapped among
friends, published on computer 'bulletin boards' and trafficked by career
criminal enterprises.
Users whose accounts are being defrauded might--or might not--eventually
notice higher-than-expected bills and be reassigned new numbers when they
complain to the carrier. Just as in the long distance business, however, this
number 'turnover' (deactivation) won't happen quickly enough to make abuse
unprofitable. Catching pirates in the act will be even tougher than it is in
the wireline telephone industry because of the inherent mobility of mobile
radio.
Automating Fraud
Computer hobbyists and electronics enthusiasts are clever people. Why should
a cellular service thief 'burn ROMs' and muck with hardware just to install
new IDs in his radio? No Herculean technology is required to 'hack' a phone
to allow ESN/MIN programming from a keyboard, much like the IMTS phone thumb
wheel switches described above.
Those not so technically inclined may be able to turn to mail-order
entrepreneurs who will offer modification kits for cellular fraud, much as
some now sell telephone toll fraud equipment and pay-TV decoders.
At least one manufacturer is already offering units with keyboard-programmable
MINs. While intended only for the convenience of dealers and service shops,
and thus not described in customer documentation, knowledgeable and/or
determined end users will likely learn the incantations required to operate
the feature. Of course this does not permit ESN modification, but easy MIN
reprogrammability alone creates a tremendous liability in today's roaming
environment.
The Rolls Royce of this iniquitous pastime might be a 'Cellular Cache-Box.' It
would monitor reverse setup channels and snarf ESN/MIN pairs off the air,
keeping a list in memory. Its owner could place calls as on any other
cellphone. The Cache-Box would automatically select an ESN/MIN pair from its
catalog, use it once and then discard it, thus distributing its fraud over
many accounts. Neither customer nor service provider is likely to detect the
abuse, much less catch the perpetrator.
As the history of the computer industry shows, it is not far-fetched to
predict explosive growth in telecommunications and cellular that will bring
equipment prices within reach of many experimenters. Already we have seen the
appearance of first-generation cellular phones on the used market, and new
units can be purchased for well under $1000 in many markets.
How High The Loss?
Subscribers who incur fraudulent charges on their bills certainly can't b
expected to pay them. How much will fraud cost the carrier? If the charge is
for home-system airtime only, the marginal cost to the carrier of providing
that service is not as high as if toll charges are involved. In the case of
toll charges, the carrier suffers a direct cash loss. The situation is at its
worst when the spoofer pretends to be a roaming user. Most inter-carrier
roaming agreements to date make the user's home carrier (real or spoofed)
responsible for charges, who would then be out hard cash for toll and airtime
charges.
We have not attempted to predict the dollar losses this chicanery might
generate because there isn't enough factual information information for anyone
to guess responsibly. Examination of current estimates of long-distance-toll
fraud should convince the skeptic.
Solutions
The problems we have described are basically of two types. First, the ESN
circuitry in most current mobiles is not tamper-resistant, much less
tamper-proof. Second and more importantly, the determined perpetrator has
complete access to all information necessary for spoofing by listening to the
radio emissions from valid mobiles because the identification information
(ESN/MIN) is not encrypted and remains the same with each transmission.
Manufacturers can mitigate the first problem by constructing mobiles that more
realistically conform to the EIA requirements quoted above. The second
problem is not beyond solution with current technology, either. Well-known
encryption techniques would allow mobiles to identify themselves to the
serving cellular system without transmitting the same digital bit stream each
time. Under this arrangement, an interloper receiving one transmission could
not just retransmit the same pattern and have it work a second time.
An ancillary benefit of encryption is that it would reasonably protect
communications intelligence--the digital portion of each transaction that
identifies who is calling whom when.
The drawback to any such solution is that it requires some re-engineering in
the Mobile-Land Station Compatibility Specification, and thus new software or
hardware for both mobiles and base stations. The complex logistics of
establishing a new standard, implementing it, and retrofitting as much of the
current hardware as possible certainly presents a tough obstacle, complicated
by the need to continue supporting the non-encrypted protocol during a
transition period, possibly forever.
The necessity of solving the problem will, however, become apparent. While we
presently know of no documented cases of cellular fraud, the vulnerability of
the current standards and experience with similar technologies lead us to
conclude that it is inevitable. Failure to take decisive steps promptly will
expose the industry to a far more expensive dilemma. XXX

MOST SCANNER ENTUSIASTES ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE STANDARD MOBILE TELEPHONE
SYSTEM; THIS SYSTEM HAS GONE THROUGH VERY LITTLE EVOLUTION IN THE PAST DECADE,
AND IN THE US. IT HAS REMAINED A CONSIDERABLY LIMITED SERVICE. A LARGE METRO
ARE MAY ONLY HAVE SEVERAL HUNDRED USERS, (NEW YORK HAS APPROX. 700 MOBILE
TELEPHONE SUBSCRIBERS), DUE LARGELY TO LIMITAIONS IMPOSED BY SPECTRAL
OVERCROWDING. SO-CALLED CELLULAR TECHNOLOGY PROMISES TO CHANGE ALL THAT,
OFFERING SERVICE TO LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF USERS. LAND MOBILE
COMMUNICATIONS HAS SEEN A 10-12% ANNUAL GROWTH RATE FOR THE PAST TWO DECADES
THE RESULT IS THAT THE 40,150,450 MHZ BANDS ARE OVER CROWDED. EVEN THE
UTILIZATION OF THE NEW 900MHZ BAND WITH 30-40 TIMES MORE CHANNELS AVAIL. THAN
ON OTHER BANDS IS A SHORT LIVED SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. CELLULAR TECHNOLOGY IS
A RESONABLE ALTERNATIVE. CELLULAR TECHNOLOGY STANDARDS SUCH AS RECOMMENDED
TRANSMISSION MODES (SSB, FM, DIGITAL, OR SPREAD SPECTRUM) HAVE YET TO BE AGREED
UPON BUT WE CAN OUTLINE THE GENERAL PRINCIPLES BEHIND ITS IMPLIMENTATION AND
USE.
THE CELL AND THE MOBILE CALL
THE ONLY FUNDIMENTAL POINT OF CELLULAR TECHNOLOGY IMPLIMENTATION ACTUALLY
AGREED UPON TO DATE IS THAT A GIVEN SERVICE AREA WILL BE DIVIDED INTO IDENTICLE
ADJACENT CELLS WITH NO OVERLAPS AND NO GAPS,HEXAGONS ARE POPULAR FOR DIAGRAMING
INDIVIDUAL CELLS. AT THE CENTER OF AN INDIVIDUAL CELL IS A BASE STATION WHICH
IS CONNECTED VIA LAND LINE TO A LOCAL MOBILE TELEPHONE SWITCHING OFFICE.
CERTAIN FREQUENCY BANDS ARE ASSIGNED TO CERTAIN CELLS, BUT NOT SHARED WITH
ADJACENT CELLS TO AVOID MUTUAL INTERFERENCE. A MOBILE UNIT WISHING TO MAKE A
CALL WILL GO OFF-HOOK AND TRANS MITT DIGITAL SOURCE AND DESTINATION CODES.
THESE TRANS MISSIONS TAKE PLACE ON SPECIAL SETUP CHANNELS AND ARE JSUT STRONG
ENOUGH TO REACH THE BASE STATION IN THE LOCAL CELL.
THE BASE STATION THEN RECIEVES THE CODES AND FORWARDS A MESSAGE TO THE CENTRAL
SWITCHING OFFICE WHICH IN TURN SENDS OUT A PAGING SIGNAL TO ALL CELLS IN SEARCH
OF THE SECOND MOBILE UNIT WHOSE NUMBER HAS BEEN DIALED. WHEN THE DESTIANTION
UNIT IS FINALLY FOUND, IT RESPONDES TO THE PAGING SIGNAL BY TRANSMITTING AN
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT CODE TO ITS LOCAL BASE STATION ON A SETUP CHANNEL.
THE SWITCHING CENTER THEN ASSIGNES A PAIR OF FREQ'S (CHANNEL PAIR) TO EACH OF
THE UNITS FOR ACTUAL VOICE COMMUNICATIONS TO TAKE PLACE. THESE CHANNEL PAIRS
ARE NOT NECCESARILY THE SAME FOR THE RESPECTIVE CELLS THAT EACH MOBILE UNIT IS
IN. THESE FREQ'S ARE ALSO RELAYED THROUGH THE BASE STATIONS AND THE CENTRAL
SWITCHING OFFICE.
WHEN ONE UNIT MOVES INTO ANOTHER CELL, THINGS GET REALLY INTERESTING. UPON
ENTRY INTO ANOTHER CELL THE MOBILE UNITS MUST TRANSMITT THROUGH A NEW BASE
STATION. AN AUTOMATIC HANDOFF TO THE NEW BASE STATION IS CARRIED OUT BY ANOTHER
EXCHANGE OF DATA THROUGH THE SETUP CHANNEL.
TERMINATION OF THE CALL IS A SIMPLE MATTER. WHEN THE CALL ENDS ON HOOK SIGNALS
ARE EXCHANGED VIA THE SETUP CHANNELS BETWEEN THE MOBILE UNIT AND THE BASE
STATION. THE MAIN VOICE CHANNELS ARE THEN CLEARED.
ADVANCED MOBILE TELEPHONE SYSTEM
IN 1979 AT&T BEGAN TEST MARKETING ITS VERSION OF A CELLULAR TELEPHONE SYSTEM IN
CHICAGO,ILL. THIS SYSTEM IS CALLED ADVANCED MOBILE TELEPHONE SYSTEM (AMPS)
SOME 2100 SQ MILES OF THE METRO CHICAGO AREA ARE DIVIDED INTO 10 CELLS TO SERVE
APPROX. 2000 CUSTOMERS. FULL DUPLEX IS POSSIBLE BY USING A PAIR OF ONE WAY
CHANNELS SEPERATED BY 45MHZ TO CONNECT THE MOBILE UNITS WITH THE BASE STATIONS.
THE RF RANGE IS 825-890 MHZ AND NORMAL NARROW BAND FM IS USED TO TRANSMITT
VOICE. HAND OFF TO ADJACENT CELLS IS ACCOMPLISHED BY MONITORING SIGNAL
STRENGTHS. WHEN THE CENTRAL SWITCHING OFFICE DETERMINES THAT A NEW BASE STATION
RECIEVES THE MOBILE UNITS SIGNAL BETTER THAN THE PREVIOUS ONE THE SWITCHING
OFFICE SIGNALS THROUGH THE VOICE CHANNEL FOR THE MOBILE PHONE TO SWITCH TO A
NEW CHANNEL. COMMUNICATIONS DISRUPTION THROUGH THE SWITCHING PROCESS IS ONLY 50
MILLISECONDS.
AS WITH IMPS (DISCUSSED IN THE FEATURE ARTICLE ON THIS BBS (PIRATE-80)) THERE
IS THE POSSIBILITY OF PHREAKING CALLS WITH IMPS OR AMPS SIMPLY BY MONITERING
THE SETUP CHANNELS WITH A SCANNER AND RECORDING THE ID NUMBERS AND THE DIALED
NUMBERS SINCE THEY ARE IN DIAL PULSE FORM AND AFTER U HAVE A NICE SET OF
NUMBERS U WILL NEED A TRANSMITTER OF SUFFICIENT STRENGTH TO REACH THE BASE
STATION (UNLICIENCED TRANSMITTER OF COURSE).
FINAL COMMENTS
MANY REGULATORY AND IMPLIMENTATION ISSUES REMAIN UNSOLVED. MODULATION ISSUES
ARE THE BIGGEST PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED. SINGLE SIDEBAND AM, NARROW BAND FM,
DIGITAL, AND SPREAD SPECTRUM TECHNIQUE'S ARE ALL BEING CONSIDERED.

The benefit of a mobile transceiver has been the wish of experimentors
since the late 1800's. To have the ablility to be reached by another
man despite location, altitude, or depth has had high priority in
communication technology throughout its history. Only until the late
1970's has this been available to the general public. That is when
Bell Telephone (the late MaBell) introduced the Advanced Mobile
Phone Service, AMPS for short.
Cellular phones today are used for a multitude of different jobs.
They are used in just plain jibber-jabber, data transfer(I will
go into this mode of cellular telephony indepth later), corporate
deals, surveillance, emergencies, and countless other applications.
The advantages of cellular telephony to the user/phreaker are
obvious:
1. Difficulty of tracking the location of a transciever
(especially if the transciever is on the move) makes
it very difficult to locate
2. Range of the unit within settled areas
3. Scrambling techniques are feasible and can be made to
provide moderate security for most transmissions.
4. The unit, with modification can be used as a bug, being
called upon by the controlling party from anywhere on
the globe.
5. It with the right knowledge one can modify the cellular
in both hardware and software to create a rather diverse-
iffied machine that will scan, store and randomly change
ESN's per call there by making detection almost impossible.
I feel it will be of great importance for readers to understand the
background of the Cellular phone system, mainly due to the fact that
much of the pioneering systems are still in use today. The first
use of a moblie radio came about in 1921 (remember prohibition?)
by the Detroit police department. This system operated at 2Mhz. In
1940, frequencies between 30 and 40Mhz were made available to and
soon became overcrowded. The trend of overcrowding continues today.
In 1946, the FCC declared a 'public corresponence system' called,
or rather classified as "Domestic Public Land Mobile Radio Service"
(DPLMRS) at 35 - 44 Mhz band that ran along the highway between
New York and Boston. Now the 35-44MHz band is used mainly by Amateur
radio hobbiest's due to the bands susceptibility to skip-propogation.
These early mobile radio systems were all PTT(push-to-talk) systems
that did not enjoy todays duplex conversations. The first real
mobile 'phone' system was the 'Improved Mobile Telephone Service'
or the IMTS for short, in 1969. This system covered the spectrum
from 150 - 450MhHz, sported automatic channel selection for each
call, eliminated PTT, and allowed the customer to do thier own
dialing. From 1969 to 1979 this was the mobile telephone service
that served the public and business community, and it is still
used today.

VHF High frequencies are the most popular frequencies of all
the IMTS band. VHF low bands are used primarily in rural areas
and those with hilly terrain. UHF bands is primarily used in cities
where the VHF bands are overcrowded. Most large cities will find
at least one station being used in their area.
ADVANCED MOBILE PHONE SYSTEM
The next step for Mobile telephone was made in 1979 by Bell
Telephone, again (gee.. where was the competition?), introducing
the Advanced Mobile Phone Service. This service is the focus
of this document, which has now taken over the mobile telephone
industry as the standard. What brought this system to life
were the new digital technologies of the 1970's. This being
large scale integrated custom circuits and microprocessors.
Without these technologies, the system would not have been
economically possible.
The basic elements of the cellular concept have to do with
frequency reuse and cell splitting.
Frequency reuse refers to the use of radio channels on the same
carrier frequency to cover different areas which are seperated by
a signifigant distance. Cell splitting is the ability to split
any cell into smaller cells if the traffic of that cell requires
attitional frequencies to handle all the area's calls. These two
elements provide the network an opportunity to handle more simul-
taneous calls, decrease the transmitters/receivers output/input
wattage/gain and a more universal signal quality.
When the system was first introduced, it was allocated 40mHz in
the frequency spectrum, divided into 666 duplex radio channels
providing about 96 channels per cell for the seven cluster
frequency reuse pattern. Cell sites (base stations) are located
in the cells which make up the cellular network. These cells
are usually represented by hexagons on maps or when developing
new systems and layouts. The cell sites contain radio, control,
voice frequency processing and maintnence equipment, as well as
transmitting and receiving antennas. The cell sites are inter-
connected by landline with the Mobie Telecommunications Switching
Office (MTSO).
In recent years, the FCC has added 156 frequencies to the Cellular
bandwidth. This provides 832 possible frequencies available to
each subscriber per cell. All new cellular telephones are built
to accomodate these new frequencies, but old cellular telephones
still work on the system. How does a cell site know if the unit
is old or new? Let me explain.
The problem of identifying a cellular phones age is done by the
STATION CLASS MARK (SCM). This Numer is 4 bits long and broken
down like this:
Bit 1: 0 for 666 channel usage (old)
1 for 832 channel usage (new)
Bit 2: 0 for a mobile unit(in vehical)
1 for voice-activated transmit (for protables)
Bit 3-4: Indentify the power class of the unit
Class I 00 = 3.0 watts Continuous Tx's 00XX...DTX <> 1
Class II 01 = 1.2 watts Discont. Tx's 01XX...DTX = 1
Class III 10 = 0.6 watts reserved 10XX, 11XX
Reserved 11 = --------- Letters DTX set to 1 permits
use of discontinuous trans-
missions
Cell Sites: How Cellular telephones get their name
Cell sites, as mentioned above are layed out in a hexagonal type
grid. Each cell is part of a larger cell which is made up of
seven cells in the following fashion:
|---| ||===|| |---| |---| |---| |---
/ \ // \\ / \ / \ / \ /
| |===|| 2 ||===|| ||===|| |---| |---|
\ // \ / \\ // \\ / \ / \
|---|| 7 |---| 3 ||==|| 2 ||==|| |---| |---|
/ \\ / \ // \ / \\ Due to the \
| ||---| 1 |---|| 7 |---| 3 ||--| difficulty of |
\ // \ / \\ / \ // \ representing /
|--|| 6 |---| 4 ||--| 1 |---|| |graphics with |
/ \\ / \ // \ / \\ / ascii characters\
| ||==|| 5 ||==|| 6 |---| 4 ||--| I will only show |
\ / \\ // \\ / \ // \ two of the cell /
|---| ||===|| ||===|| 5 ||==|| |types I am trying-
/ \ / \ / \\ // \ / to convey. \
| |---| |---| ||==|| |---| |---| |
\ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ /
|---| |---| |---| |---| |---| |---|
As you can see, each cell is a 1/7th of a larger cell. Where one(1)
is the center cell and two(2) is the cell directly above the center.
The other cells are number around the center cell in a clockwise
fashion, ending with seven(7). The cell sites are equiped with
three directional antennas with an RF beamwidth of 120 degrees
providing 360 degree coverage for that cell. Note that all cells
never share a common border. Cells which are next to each other
are obviously never assigned the same frequencies. They will
almost always differ by at least 60 Khz. This also demonstrates
the idea behind cell splitting. One could imagine that the parimeter
of one of the large cells was once one cell. Due to a traffic
increase, the cell had to be sub-divided to provide more channels
for the subscribers. Note that subdivisions must be made in factors
of seven.
There are also Moblie Cell sites, which are usually used in the
transisitional period during the upscaling of a cell site due to
increased traffic. Of course, this is just one of the many uses of
this component. Imagine you are building a new complex in a very
remote location. You could feasibly install a few mobile cellular
cell sites to provide a telephone-like network for workers and
executives. The most unique component would be the controller/
transceiver which provides the communications line between the
cell site and the MTSO. In a remote location such a link could
very easily be provided via satellite up/down link facilities.
Lets get into how the phones actually talk with eachother. There
are several ways and competitors have still not set an agreed upon
standard.
Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA)
This is the traditional method of traffic handling. FDMA is a
single channel per carrier analog method of transmitting signals.
There has never been a definate set on the type of modulation to
be used. There are no regulations requiring a party to use a single
method of modulation. Narrow band FM, single sidband AM, digital, and
spread-spectrum techniques have all been considered as a possible
standard. But none hae yet to be chosen.
FDMA works like this: Cell sites are constantly searching out
free channels to start out the next call. As soon as a call finishes
the channel is freed up and put on the list of free channels. Or, as
a subscriber moves from one cell to another the new cell they are in
will hopefully have an open channel to recieve the current call in
progress and carry it through its location. This process is called
handoff, and will be discussed more indepth further along.
Other proposed traffic handling schemes include Time-Division
Multiple Acces (TDMA), Code-Division Multiple Access(CDMA), and
Time-Division/Frequency Division Multiple Access.
Time Division Multiple Access
With TDMA calls are simultaneously held on the same channels, but
are mutiplexed between pauses in the conversation. These pauses
occur in the way people talk and think, and the telephone company
also injects small delays on top of the conversation to accommodate
other traffic on that channel. This increase in the length of the
usual pause results in a longer amount of time spent on the call.
Longer calls result in higher cost of the call.
Code Division Multiple Access
This system has been used in mobile military communications for the
past 35 years. This system is digital and breaks up the digitized
conversation into bundles, compressed, sent, then decompressed and
converted back into analog. There are said increases of throughput
of 20 : 1 but CDMA is susceptible to interference which will result
in packet retransmission and delays. Of course error correction can
can help in data integrity, but will also result in a small delay in
throughput.
Time-Dvision/Frequency Division Multiple Access
TD/FDMA is a relatively new system which is an obvious hybrid of
FDMA and TDMA. This system is mainly geared towards the increase
of digital transmission over the cellular network. TD/FDMA make
it possible to transmit signals from base to moblie without
disturbing the conversation. With FDMA there are signifigant
disturbances during handoff with prevent continual data transmission
from site to site. TD/FDMA make it possible to transmit control
signals by the same carrier as the data/voice thereby ridding
extra channel usage for control.
Cellular Frequency Usage and channel allocation
There are 832 cellular phone channels which are split into two
seperate bands. Band A consists of 416 channels for non-wireline
services. Band B consists equally of 416 channels for wireline
services. Each of these channels are split into two frequencies
to provide duplex operation. The lower frequency is for the mobile
unite while the other is for the cell site. 21 channels of each
Band are dedicated to 'control' channels and the other 395 are
voice channels. You will find that the channels are numbered from
1 to 1023, skipping channels 800 to 990.
I found these handy-dandy equations that can be used for calculating
frequencies from channels and channels from frequencies.
N = Cellular Channel # F = Cellular Frequency
B = 0 (mobile) or B = 1 (cell site)
CELLULAR FREQUENCIES from CHANNEL NUMBER:
F = 825.030 + B * 45 + ( N + 1 ) * .03
where: N = 1 to 799
F = 824.040 + B * 45 + ( N + 1 ) * .03
where: N = 991 to 1023
CHANNEL NUMBER from CELLULAR FREQUENCIES
N = 1 + (F - 825.030 - B * 45) / .03
where: F >= 825.000 (mobile)
or F >= 870.030 (cell site)
N = 991 + (F - 824.040 - B * 45) / .03
where: F <= 825.000 (moblie)
or F <= 870.000 (base)
Now that you have those frequencies, what to do with them. Well,
for starters, one can very easily monitor the cellular frequencies
with most hand/base scanners. Almost all scanners pre-1988 have
some coverage of the 800 - 900 MHz band. All scanners can
monitor the IMTS frequencies.
Remember that cellular phones operate on a full duplex channel.
That means that one frequency is used for transmission and the
other is used for receiving, each spaced exactly 30 Khz apart.
Remember also that the base frequencies are 45MHz higher than
the cellular phone frequencies. This can obviously make
listening rather difficult. One way to listen to both parts of
the conversation would be having two scanners programmed 45 Mhz
apart to capture the entrire conversation.
The upper UHF frequency specrum was 'appropriated' by the Cellular
systems in the late 1970's. Televisions are still made to
recieve up to channel 83. This means that you can recieve much
of the cellular system on you UHF receiver. One television channel
occupies 6Mhz of bandwidth. This was for video, sync, and audio
transmission of the channel. A cellular channel only takes up
24 KHz plus 3KHz set up as a guard band for each audio signal.
This means that 200 cellular channels can fit into one UHF
television channel. If you have an old black and white television
drop a variable cap in there to increase the sensistivity of the
tuning. Some of the older sets have coarse and fine tuning knobs.
Some of the newer, smaller, portable television sets are tuned by
a variable resistor. This make modifications MUCH easier, for now
all you have to do is drop in there a smaller value pot and
tweak away. I have sucessfully done this on two televisions.
Most users will find that those who don't live in a city will
have a much better listening rate per call. In the city, the cells
are so damn small that handoff is usually every other minute.
Resulting in chopped conversations.
If you wanted to really get into it, I would suggest to obtain an
old Television set with decent tuning controls and remove the RF
section out of the set. You don't want all that hi-voltage circuitry
lying around(flyback and those caps). UHF recievers in televisions
downconvert UHF frequencies to IF (intermediate frequencies) between
41 and 47 MHz. These output IF frequencies can then be run into a
scanner set to pick-up between 41 - 47 MHz. Anyone who works with
RF knows that it is MUCH easier to work with 40MHz signals than working
with 800MHz signals (not to far away from Ghz.. mmmmmmm.. Waveguides
are just sooo much fun). JUST REMEMBER ONE THING!!!! Isolate the
UHF reciever from your scanner by using a coupling capacitor(.01 -
.1 microfarad(50V min.) will do nicely)!!!! You don't want any of
those biasing voltages creeping into your scanners recieving
AMPLIFIERS!!! Horrors. Also, don't forget to gound both the scanner
and reciever.
Some systems transmit and recieve the same cellular transmission
on the base frequencies. There you can simply hang out on the
base frequency and capture both sides of the conversation. The
handoff rate is much higher in high traffic areas leading the listener
to hear short or choppy conversations. At times you can listen in
for 5 to 10 minutes per call, depending on how fast the caller is
moving through the cell site.

You can spend hours just listening to cellular telephone conversations
but I would like to mention that it is illegal to do so. Yes, it is
illegal to monitor cellular telephone conversations. It just another
one of those laws like removing tags off of furniture and pillows.
It's illegal, but what the hell for? Its also illegal to spit on
the sidewalks here in Massachusetts, yet you can carry a shotgun
on sundays with you to mass(thats still in the books. Obviously
it was for the original settlers). At any rate, I just want you
to understand that doing the following is in violation of the law.
Now back to the good stuff.
Conversation is not only what an avid listener will find on the
cellular bands. One will also hear call/channel setup control
data streams, dialing, and other control messages. At times,
a cell site will send out a full request for all units in its
cell to indentify itself. The phone will then respond with the
appropriate identification on the corresponding control channel.
Whenever a moblie unit is turned on, even when not placing a call,
whenever there is power to the unit, it transmits its phone
number and its 8-digit ID number. The same process is done when
an idling phone passes from one cell to the other. This process
is repeated for as long as there is power to the unit. This allows
the MTSO to 'track' a mobile through the network. That is why it is
not a good reason to use a mobile phone from one site. They do have
ways of finding you. And it really is not that hard. Just a bit
of RF Triangulation theory and you're found. However, when the
power to the unit is shut off, as far as the MTSO cares, you never
existed in that cell, of course unless your unit was flagged for some
reason. MTSO's are basically just ESS sytems designed for mobile
applications. This will be explained later within this document.
It isn't feasible for the telephone companies to keep track of each
customer on the network. Therefore the MTSO really doesn't know
if you are authorized to use the network or not. When you purchase
a cellular phone, the dealer gives the units phone ID number to the
local BOC, as well as the number the BOC assigned to the customer.
When the unit is fired up in a cell site its ID number and phone
number is transmitted and checked. If the two numbers are registered
under the same subscriber, then the cell site will allow the mobile
to send and recieve calls. If they don't match, then the cell will
not allow the unit to send or recieve calls. Hence, the most
successful way of reactivating a cellular phone is to obtain an
ID that is presently in use and modifying your rom/prom/eprom for
your specific phone.
RF and AF Specifications:
Everything that you will see from here on out is specifically
Industry/FCC standard. A certian level of compatibility has
to be maintained for national intercommunications, therefore
a common set of standards that apply to all Cellular telephones
can be compiled and analyzed.
Transmitter Mobiles: audio transmission
- 3 kHz to 15 kHz and 6.1 kHz to 15 kHz
- 5.9 kHz to 6.1 kHz 35 dB attenuation
- Above 15 kHz, the attenuation becomes 28 dB
- All this is required after the modulation limiter and before
the modulation stage
Transmitters Base Stations: audio transmission
- 3 kHz to 15 kHz
- Above 15 kHz, attenuation required 28 dB
- Atennuation after modulation limiter - no notch filter required
RF attenuation below carrier Transmitter: audio transmission
- 20 kHz to 40 kHz, use 26 dB.
- 45 kHz to 2nd harmonic, the specification is 60 dB or 43 + 10 log
of mean output power
- 12 kHz to 20 kHz, attenuation 117 log f/12
- 20 kHz to 2nd harmonic, there is a choice: 100 log F/100 or 60 dB
or 43 log + 10 log of mean output power, whichever is less.
Wideband Data
- 20 kHz to 45 kHz, use 26 dB
- 45 kHz to 90 kHz, use 45 dB
- 90 kHz to 2nd harmonic, either 60 dB or 43 + 10 log mean output
power
- all data streams are encoded so that NRZ (non-return-to-zero)
binary ones and zeroes are now zero-to-one and one-to-zero
transitions respectively. Wideband data can then modulate
the transmitter carrier by binary frequency shift keying(BFSK)
and ones and zeroes into the modulator must now be equivalent
to nominal peak frequency deviations of 8 kHz above and below
the carrier frequency.
Supervisory Audio Tones
- Save as RF attenuation measurements
Signaling Tone
- Same as Wideband Data but must be 10 kHz +/- 1 Hz and produce a
nominal frequency deviation of +/- 8 kHz.
The previous information will assist any technophile to modify or
even troubleshoot his/her cellular phone. Those are the working
guidelines, as I stated previously.
UNIT IDENTIFICATION
Each mobile unit is identified by the following sets of numbers.
The first number is the Moblie Identification Number (MIN). This
34 bit binary number is derived from the units telephone number,
MIN1 is the last seven digits of the telephone number and MIN2 is
the area code.
For demonstrative purposes, we'll encode 617-637-8687.
Here's how to derive the MIN2 from a standard area code. In this
example, 617 is the area code. All you have to do is first convert
to modulo 10 using the following function. A zero digit would be
considered to have a value of 10.
100(first number) + 10(second) +1(third) - 111 = x
100(6) + 10(1) + 1(7) - 111 = 506
(or you could just - 111 from the area code.)
Then convert it to a 10-bit binary number: 0111111010
To derive MIN1 from the phone number is equally as simple. First
encode the next three digits, 637.
100(6) + 10(3) + 1(7) - 111 = 526
Converted to binary: 1000001110
The remainder of the number 8687, is processed further by taking
the first digit, eight(8) and converting it directly to binary.
8 = 1000 (binary)
The last three digits are processed as the other two sets of
three numbers were processed.
100(6) + 10(8) + 1(7) - 111 = 576
Converted to binary: 1001000000
So the completed MIN number would look like this:
|--637---||8-||---687--||---617--|
1000001110100010010000000111111010
\________/\__/\________/\________/
A unit is also identifiable by its Electronic Serial Number or
ESN. This number is Factory Preset and is usually stored in a
ROM chip, which is soldered to the board. It may also be found
in a 'computer on a chip', which are the new microcontrollers
which have rom/ram/microprocessor all in the same package. This
type of setup usually has the ESN and the software to drive the
unit all in the same chip. This makes is significantly harder
to dump, modify and replace. But it is far from impossible.
The ESN is a 4 byte hex or 11-digit octal number. I have encountered
mostly 11-digit octal numbers on the casing of most celluar phones.
the first three digits represent the manufacturer and the remaining
eight digits are the units ESN. I'll go more into the ESN later in
the document.
The Station Class Mark (SCM) is also used for station identification
by providing the station type and power output rating. This was
already discussed in a previous section.
The System IDentification (SID number is a number wich represents
the mobile's home system. This number is 15-bits long and a list
of current nationwide SID's should either be a part of this file
or it will be distrubted along with it.
In the next issue we'll discuss the Control channels, signalling
formats, and dissecting the NAM in detail. Social.technological

-------------- cut me here ---------------------------------------------------
PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER - Signaling on the Control Channels
There are two types of continuous wideband data stream transmissions.
One is the Forward Control Channel which is sent from the land station
to the mobile. The other is the Reverse Control Channel, which is
sent from the mobile to the land station. Each data stream runs at a
rate of 10 kilobit/sec, +/- 1 bit/sec rate. The formats for each of
the channels follow.
Forward Control Channel
The forward control channel consists of three discrete information
streams. They are called stream A, stream B and the busy-idle
stream. All three streams are multiplexed together. Messages to
mobile stations with the least significant bit of thier MIN number
equal to "0" are sent on stream A, and those with a "1" are sent
on stream B.
The busy-idle stream contains busy-idle bits, whic are used to
indicate the status of the reverse control channel. If the busy-idle
bit = "0" the reverse control channel is busy, if it equals "1"
it is idle. The busy-idle bit is located at the beginning of each
dotting sequence, word sync sequence, at the beginning of the first
repeat of word A and after every 10 message bits thereafter.
Mobile stations achieve synchronization with the incoming data via
a 10 bit dotting sequence (1010101010) and an 11 bit word sync
sequence (11100010010). Each word contains 40 bits, including parity
and is repeated 5 times after which it is then refered to as a
"block". For a multiword message, the second word block and subsequent
word blocks are formed the same as the first word blok including the
dotting and sync sequences. A "word" is formed when the 28 content
bits are encoded into a (40, 28; 5) BCH (Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem)
code. The left-most bit shall be designated the most-signifigant bit.
The Generator polynominal for the (40, 28;5) BCH code is:
12 10 8 5 4 3 0
G (X) = X + X + X + X + X + X + X
B
Each FOCC message con consist of one or more words. Messaging trans-
mitted over the forward control channel are:
- Mobile station control message
- Overhead message
- control-filler mesage
Controller-filler messages may be inserted between messages and
between word blocks of a multiword message.
Message Formats: Found on either stream A or B
MOBILE STATION CONTROL MESSAGE
The mobile station control message can consist of one, two, or four
words.
Word 1 (abbreviated address word)
+--------+-------+---------------------------------------+-----------+
| T t | | | |
| 1 2 | DCC | Moblie Identification Number 1 | P |

+------+-----+-----------+------------+---------------------+=----+
The Reverse Control Channel (RECC) is a wideband data stream sent
from the moblie station to the land station. This data stream runs
at a rate of 10 kilobit/sec, +/- 1 bit/sec rate. The format of the
RECC data stream follows:
+---------+------+-------+------------+-------------+-----------+-----
| Dotting | Word | Coded | first word | Second word | Third word|
| | sync | DCC | repeated | repeated | repeated | ...
| | | | 5 times | 5 times | 5 times |
+---------+------+-------+------------+-------------+-----------+-----
DCC = Digital Color Code Dotting = 01010101...010101
Received DCC 7-bit Codec DCC Word sync = 11100010010
00 0000000
01 0011111
10 1100011
11 1111100
All messages begin with the RECC seizure precursor with is composed
of a 30 bit dotting sequence (1010...101), and 11 bit word sync
sequence (11100010010), and the coded digital color code.
Each word contains 48 bits, including parity, and is repeated five
times after which it is refered to as a word block. A word is
formed by encoding 36 content bits into a (48, 36) BCH code that has
a distance of 5, (48 36; 5). The left most bit shall be designated
the most-significant bit. The 36 most-significant bits of the 48 bit
field shall be the content bits.
The generator polynomial for the code is the same for the (40,28;5)
code used on the forward channel.
CONTROL CHANNELS (SETUP CHANNELS)
Each wireline and non-wireline service have 21 channels. These
channels are used by the MTSO and the cell sites to directly
communicate with the mobile unit. The first signal sent to initiate
a call is the Supervisory Audio Tone (SAT). This can be thought of
as the voltage used to close the loop on a land telephone.
SAT Tones with corresponding binary codes:
5970 Hz (00)
6000 Hz (01)
6030 HZ (10)
The mobile unit recieves the SAT from the cell site and transponds
it back (closing the loop). Tone recognition must take place
within 250 milliseconds or the site interprets it as the mobile
is out of range. If the SAT is returned, then a Signaling Tone
is issued. This Tone is 10kHz and is present when the user is
either being alerted(call initialization), being handed off,
or disconnecting The Signaling tone is used only in mobile to
land direction

Cellular Phreaking Theory
The cellular/mobile phone system is one that is perfectly set up to be
exploited by phreaks with the proper knowledge and equipment. Thanks to
deregulation, the regional BOC's (Bell Operating Companies) are scattered and
do not communicate much with each other. Phreaks can take advantage of this
by pretending to be mobile phone customers whose "home base" is a city served
by a different BOC, known as a "roamer". Since it is impractical for each BOC
to keep track of the customers of all the other BOC's, they will usually allow
the customer to make the calls he wishes, often with a surcharge of some sort.
The bill is then forwarded to the roamer's home BOC for collection. However,
it is fairly simple (with the correct tools) to create a bogus ID number for
your mobile phone, and pretend to be a roamer from some other city and state,
that's "just visiting". When your BOC tries to collect for the calls from
your alleged "home BOC", they will discover you are not a real customer; but
by then, you can create an entirely new electronic identity, and use that
instead.
How does the cellular system know who is calling, and where they are?
When a mobile phone enters a cell's area of transmission, it transmits its
phone number and its 8 digit ID number to that cell, who will keep track of it
until it gets far enough away that the sound quality is sufficiently
diminished, and then the phone is "handed off" to the cell that the customer
has walked or driven into. This process continues as long as the phone has
power and is turned on. If the phone is turned off (or the car is), someone
attempting to call the mobile phone will receive a recording along the lines
of "The mobile phone customer you have dialed has left the vehicle or driven
out of the service area." When a call is made to a mobile phone, the
switching equipment will check to see if the mobile phone being called is
"logged in", so to speak, or present in one of the cells. If it is, the call
will then act (to the speaking parties) just like a normal call - the caller
may hear a busy tone, the phone may just ring, or the call may be answered.
How does the switching equipment know whether or not a particular
phone is authorized to use the network? Many times, it doesn't. When a
dealer installs a mobile phone, he gives the phone's ID number (an 8 digit
hexadecimal number) to the local BOC, as well as the phone number the BOC
assigned to the customer. Thereafter, whenever a phone is present in one of
the cells, the two numbers are checked - they should be registered to the same
person. If they don't match, the telco knows that an attempted fraud is
taking place (or at best, some transmission error) and will not allow calls to
be placed or received at that phone. However, it is impractical (especially
given the present state of deregulation) for the telco to have records of
every cellular customer of every BOC. Therefore, if you're going to create a
fake ID/phone number combination, it will need to be "based" in an area that
has a cellular system (obviously), has a different BOC than your local area
does, and has some sort of a "roamer" agreement with your local BOC.
How can one "phreak" a cellular phone? There are three general areas
when phreaking cellular phones; using one you found in an unlocked car (or an
unattended walk-about model), modifying your own chip set to look like a
different phone, or recording the phone number/ID number combinations sent by
other local cellular phones, and using those as your own. Most cellular
phones include a crude "password" system to keep unauthorized users from using
the phone - however, dealers often set the password (usually a 3 to 5 digit
code) to the last four digits of the customer's mobile phone number. If you
can find that somewhere on the phone, you're in luck. If not, it shouldn't be
TOO hard to hack, since most people aren't smart enough to use something
besides "1111", "1234", or whatever. If you want to modify the chip set in a
cellular phone you bought (or stole), there are two chips (of course, this
depends on the model and manufacturer, yours may be different) that will need
to be changed - one installed at the manufacturer (often epoxied in) with the
phone's ID number, and one installed by the dealer with the phone number, and
possible the security code. To do this, you'll obviously need an EPROM burner
as well as the same sort of chips used in the phone (or a friendly and
unscrupulous dealer!). As to recording the numbers of other mobile phone
customers and using them; as far as I know, this is just theory... but it
seems quite possible, if you've got the equipment to record and decode it.
The cellular system would probably freak out if two phones (with valid
ID/phone number combinations) were both present in the network at once, but it
remains to be seen what will happen.
Note/Disclaimer: Ok, I don't pretend to know everything about
cellular phones; I've screwed around with them a little, but I figured I'd
make a file with the things I've learned about them, to at least share what I
know and possible bring about further discussion.

CELLULAR TELEPHONE PHREAKING PHILE SERIES VOL 1 by The Mad Phone-man
How would ya like to have a phone that no body could locate? How bout free
phone service on it too? Well Cellular telephones have the potential to do
all this and more. First lets discuss some basics of the service.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS:
--------------------
Q:What is cellular; a cellular phone?
A: A 800 mhz radiotelephone, running 3 watts, with the ability to change
channel on computer command from the central switch. This happens when you
travel thru the service area and your signal becomes stronger at a neighboring
cell base station.
Q: They are marketed as a high security device with no possibility of anyone
making a phoney call and charging it to someone else, how can it be phreaked?
A: An understanding of the phone reveals that every time a call is made, the
phone number,an electronic serial number, and other data is sent to the switch.
If you were to listen to the oposite side of the control channel as the call
is being "set-up" you would hear this data being transmitted to the switch in
NRZ code (non-return to zero). All one has to do, is record this info and
program the bogus phone to these params and a free call is possible thru the
switch.
Q: Has anyone done this yet?
A: YES, about 6 months after the first cellular phone system was "turned-up"
a technician programmed a panasonic telephone with a NEC E.S.N. (Electronic
serial number) this was reportedly done for a gram of coke. With the popular
ROM programmers available today, almost any NAM (Numeric Assignment Module)
can be duplicated or copied with changes. (The NAM is the heart of the billing
information and contains the phone number but not the ESN) The most popular
integrated circut for NAMs is the 74LS123.
Q: This sounds like a lot of trouble, is there easier ways to get service?
A: SURE, the cellphone companies have been their own downfall. In an effort
market their wares as a universal service (Your phone will work in any system)
they have let the cart get before the horse. Nobody can tell if a phone from
another city (that has a roaming agreement) is valid till its too late. The
only thing they could do after finding out is block any call with the bad
ESN because as we know, the phone number is easy to change, but the ESN is
not. So heres a likely plot...a roamer identifying itself as a number from
Chicago non-wireline accesses a Cellular system in Dallas. Sometimes an
operator intervienes but you can bullshit them as long as you know the
information you have programmed into your phone. Then you make calls just
like you are a local user. If you're found out, you remove the number,
change it to another, and see if that works. Usualy it will require the
radio's ESN chip to be changed, but thats a lot easier if you have a ZIF
(zero insertion force) socket installed, thats what I use.
Upcomming soon, more good info on particular mfgrs ESN codes.

Some terms you should understand:
Control Channel- The channel the phone and cell base first communicate on.
Reverse Control Ch- The oposite frequency, 45 mhz lower than the control
channel.This is where the mobile unit is.
Voice channel- The channel you are assigned by the switch to commence the
call on after the exchange of suscriber data.
Reverse voice channel- Again 45mhz lower.
Cell Site- The base station that talks to the mobile.
Switch- The computer that places the calls, and takes and recieves data
from the suscriber or from PSTN. (public switched tel netwk)
OK that should get things started. A suscriber picks up his handset to
place a call.
The phone has already been locked onto the strongest control ch in the
area by a computerized scanner in the phone. As he drives thru the service a
the computer constantly picks out the strongest control ch and stays on it,
altho more than one cell site can actualy be heard. The suscriber enters the
number to call on the keypad, and presses the "send" button. At this time th
folowing data is transmitted to the cell sit by the mobile. The callers
electronic serial number (ESN) , his home system number (two digits) his
mobile's area code and phone number, and the number he wants.The cellular
switch now picks up an outgoing line, places the call for him and tells
the mobile to switch to a voice channel. The two ends are linked in the
central switch and violla! A complete phone call, in about 3 seconds.
I have purposely over-simplified the whole process to point out the
moment of truth. The mobile's ESN and phone number and the data in the
switch must match or no go. This is how the billing is figgured out.If
one had the ESN and the mobilephone number, you could call anytine
anyplace without fear of trace, let alone bill. The ideal setup would
let you listen to the reverse control channel, record and display heard
working numbers and ESN's and recall them at your discression to make calls.
This would be tits! Were not quite there yet. But some hard work has
allready been done for us. All the aforementioned codes are sent
in hex, in NRZ code (phancy term for phase shift keying) but the phone
allready has, for example a NRZ receiver and transmitter built right in.
All that has to be done is to have a receiver on the reverse control
channel, recover the other suscribers data and save it or at least print
it out. The mobile radio data books show some good technical stuff on
the systems used and chip part numbers for the NRZ stuff. I know there
is a mfgr using the lowley 8085 chip for the control head functions,
seems like theres room for xperementin here.

Now that you have become familiar with the technology of cellular phones
its time to discuss what you can do with a phone right now.
Not every system pays attention to a "Roamer" from outside the system as
closely as they do a local suscriber. In their mad rush to offer cellular as
"universal" service, meaning you can place a call in any cellular city any-
where in North America, they fucked up.
OK, heres the poop...I access say..Cleveland Ohio Cellular 1's Ericcson switch
and tell them by my "NAM" info that im a roamer from NYNEX in New York City.
Cleveland will let me make the call, cause it bills back to NYC my number
of minutes used. If the NYC number is bogus, the call goes thru, and the bill
doesn't go anywhere. They do know the exchange data for NYC, thats on a chart
so ya cant tell em yer...555-1212 or such..you must tell em yer a valid roamer
and the System number (two digits) must match NYC's. This is not too hard to
figgure out, (call some of their stupid sales idiots some time and see what
they will let out of the bag)...so now lets see what else you should know.
OK, the system number for the foreign exchange....Nynex in Buffalo is 56,
Chicago nonwireline is 01, Buffalo Nonwireline is 03, All wirelines are even
numbers all non-wirelines are odd.
OK, first three digits of the mobile number....Nynex Buffalo- 863 xxxx
Buffalo Non-wire 861 xxxx, 690 xxxx.
I am sure it wont take much to figgure out the local numbers for your area
like I said the sales people are fucks and will tell ya anything to
make a sale.
Until the companys get a cellular clearinghouse to validate roamers in real
time this will work out fine. The prospects of such a clearinghouse are
good after the companys get done with their bitching at each other.
But it may be a while before it becomes routine to look up a roamer. There's
simply too many to look up every time service is wanted.
So, steal a cellphone and his antenna, re-nam it as a roamer and when ya get
it setup, make copies of the info with different suscriber numbers (the
last 4 digits) and make free calls till whenever.

WHATS IN A NAM by The Mad Phone-man
---------------------------------------------------------
Nam stands for "Number Assignment Module" or to the Teckies a PROM
(Programable Read-Only Memory) A blank Nam usualy costs between $1. to
$2.75. Sometimes its more expensive depending on the operating temperature
and packaging specifications.
Two flavors of NAM's are used for cellular. NEC uses the open colector
(Signetics p/n 82S32 or equivalent). All others use the tri-state (Signetics
82S123 or equivalent). Blank Nams are manufactured by Signetics,National
Semiconductor, Monolithic Memorys, Fujitsu, Texas Instruments, and Advanced
Microdevices. Blank Nams can be purchased at your electronic distribuitor's
and many radios come with a blank included.
The NAM contains the subscriber number and lock code, the home system
identification and other system required information. You may wonder how this
info is arranged.
The NAM is organized into 32 rows and 8 columns. It is 32 words of 8 bits
each. (256 bits total) Starting from the top of the NAM (address 00)
you will find the abreviation SIDH, This means "system identification number
home" , a number starting at 0001 assigned by the FCC.
Each market allows two systems. Even for the wire-line and odd for
the non-wireline.
At address 03 we find LU (Local use) on the left and MIN on the right these
areusualy set to 1. Locations with zeros are reserved. Going down the map,
there's MIN1 and MIN2 the subscriber number and the area code respectivly
Dont try to read them from a raw printout of the NAM data, they are scrambled
beond recognition. The reason? The way they are arranged is the way they must
be transmitted to the cellular systems receivers. The programmer does this to
make the radio's job easier.
Next is the station class mark, which identifys the class and power capability
of the phone. The system will treat a handheld (low power) differently than
a standard 3 watt mobile.
IPCH is the inital paging channel. The radio listens for a page on this
channel. Wirelines use 334 and non-wirelines use 333.
ACCOLC (ACCess Overload Class) is designed in throwing off customers in
the event of an overload. Thru neglect this standard has been largely unused.
(A class 15 station is supposed to be police, fire, or military)
Usualy its set to 0 plus the last digit of the phone number to provide random
loading.
PS- Prefered system. This is always 1 in non-wireline and 0 in wireline.
The lock code is about the only thing you can read directly by studying
the NAM data. The "spare" bit must be a 0 if the radio contains a 3 digit code.
Because the number of clicks when you dial 0 on a (dial) phone equals 10
zeros in the lock code are represented by an "A" the hexadecimal equiv of 10.
EE,REP,HA, and HF correspond to end-to-end signaling (DTMF tones possible
you talk) REPeratory dialing (provision for 10 or more numbers in memory)
Horn Alert and hands free. Like all options, they are 1, if turned on and
0 if turned off.
Addresses 13 thru 1D (all these numbers are in hex) are supposed to be used
by radio mfgrs to store option switches. Usualy 13 is used, 14 sometimes and
the rest less often.
Last you will find checksum adjustment and checksum. These numbers are
calculated automaticly after the data has been edited for the NAM. The sum
of all words in the nam plus these last two must equal a number with 0's
in the last two digits. The radio checks this sum and if it isnt correct
the radio assumes the NAM is bad or tampered with. In the case the radio
refuses to operate until a legal NAM is installed.

WHAT IS CELLULAR MANAGE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well, Cellular Manager (CM), would best be described as a kind of reference
program, much like Professor Falkins Phreakers Tools, except for Cellular phones
and the like. CM has some of the most common tools in a easy, fast, menu driven
environment, to give us just one more edge over our opponents.
I am not, however, going to go into any great detail about what each of the
options is for, and what can be done with the information gathered, since there
are many other nice files already out there that do just that (I would recommend
Bootlegger's freecell file from HohoCon, since in includes virtually all of the
information that is available at the moment).
The most benifical part about this program is the fact that you can track down
the strongest control cell in your area. This is especially useful when trying
to recieve the reverse control channel, which is very weak (due to power limit-
ations from the mobile to the base).
AVAILABLE OPTIONS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All of the options listed below are available from the main menu of the CM,
which the program defaults into. Some options are also available from the
command line, which is discussed later.
Create MIN1 and MIN2
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Generates the MIN1 and MIN2 for the phones NAM. Prompts for the areacode
and phone number, then outputs the MIN's in binary format.
Cellular Channel to Frequency
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Fairly self-explanitory, converts a given cellular frequency into it's
channel number. Will display either forward, or reverse frequencies.
Cellular Frequency to Channel
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Like above option, except reversed.
Table of control Channels
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
A complete listing of all the controls numbers, their channel number, and
forward and reverse frequencies.
Convert HEX to Binary
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Convienient routine to convert a HEX number (up to 10 digits) into Binary
Search list of Manufactures ESN by Name
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Searches through a list of Cellular phone manufactures name fields, then
shows the most likely match and their decimal ESN identification
Search list of Manufactures ESN by Identification
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Like above option, except reversed.
Locate and list adjacent Cells
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Prompts for entry of the most powerful control or voice channel in your
area, then displays a small hex table showing the closest cells and their
identification. This function also displays the cell's group status as well
as it's designator.
Search through Phone programming specs
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Searches through a list of Cellular phones available, and displays what
information is available about reprogramming. Well display all possible
matches.
Search through Directory of Wirelines
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Searches through a list of major cities in the US and then displays the
Wire/Non-Wire (Band A&B) channels for each city. States can also be
specified.
Cross-Reference Cell Groups
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Uses the cellulars group identification and wireline specs to list all of
the voice channels and their corresponding frequencies. Also displays the
control channel for the group, and it's forward frequency.
Find Strongest Control Cell
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This option requires you to have established 5 (no more, no less) control
channels that can be received at your location. After inputing their
channel numbers, the program will respond with the group that is most likely
to be the strongest.
THE BEST WAY TO SCAN REVERSE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The way I would recommend that will yield the best results when scanning the
reverse channels is this:
(1) Locate and write down the forward control frequencies that you can hear
with the antenni removed from your scanner. Get at least five, and if
possible stay either wireline or non-wireline. Use the table in option
[4] if necessary.
(2) Convert the frequencies to their appropriate channel using option [3].
(3) Enter the channels into option [C] and then write down the group.
(4) Use option [B] to find the channel/frequencies, as well as the strongest
voice channels in your region.
(5) Enter the channel into option [2] and specify [R]everse information.
Simple enough, eh? Now you have the best possible chance of capturing reverse
channel information (such as the ESN). Also try to place your scanners antenni
in the most open location possible, although this is not necessary. I have used
a Radio Shack Pro-37 (portable) with a DDI, and a laptop with very good success.
A COUPLE OF BRIEF NOTES
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the Locate & List Adj Cells function, on the hex chart that is displayed,
only cells that actually TOUCH the highlighed cell are adjacent to it. The cells
on the left and right do not touch the primary cell, although they may appear to.
This is because there are redundant cells exactly opposite it in the field, and
I chose not to display those.
When trying to establish what is most likely your strongest control channel,
it does not matter if you list Wireline and Non-Wireline channels. This is due
to the fact that most cellular companies share a zone, and split it up on the
A/B settings appropriately. Also, do not list the same cell channel twice, since
this will effect what it suggests.
COMMAND LINE OPTIONS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Several of the main menu options are also available from the command line.
For a current listing of supported commands, at dos enter either 'CM /?' or
'CM /H'. Operation through the command line is exactly the same as if the
option was selected from the menu.
KNOWN BUGS
~~~~~~~~~~
None.
UPDATES
~~~~~~~
I plan to keep CM as updated as possible, but this can only be done with your
help! When you find any information that it does not contain, please leave it
to me on any of the systems listed below. An open exchange of information helps
everyone, and this is the next frontier of phreaking...
PROGRAMS FOR THE FUTURE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here's some of the programs to be watching for, from me, in the future:
ACTCHK Checks CBI accounts against their algorhythm and verifies
format validity and extra information.
[AVAILABLE EARLY 1993]
CBIDBS A database that sorts and displays all of your credit
reports. Implements the VC routines real time for
maximum security. Allows searching for any field, comment
fields, and ARDT directory.
[AVAILABLE SUMMER 1993]
VINHP A new operating system for the HP 95/LX
[AVAILABLE FALL 1993]

A GUIDE TO CELLULAR PHREAKING
--by Bernie S.
The recent FBI/Secret Service cellular sting operation that culminated in the
arrests of over 25 people in New York City confirms what many of us have
suspected for quite some time: that cellular telephone fraud is widespread.
The FBI estimates that cellular phone fraud costs system operators $3 million
anually; with the average subscriber's airtime bill about $50 per month for 100
minutes of usage, there could be over 2500 cellular pirates on the air if a
pirate uses twice the normal amount of airtime. The term "pirate" rather than
"phreak" is used here because the vast majority of illegitimate CMT users
(Cellular Mobile Telephone) are only interested in stealing airtime, while
phone phreaks are mainly interested in learning more about the telephone
network through its manipulation.
The six-month FBI investigation used "cooperative sources" who named
fraudulent installers; then FBI agents posing as customers and installers used
standard entrapment techniques to gather evidence against those allegedly
involved. The FBI's press release statement that "Recent technological
advances in computerized telephone switching equipment and billing systems were
instrumental in...(their investigation)" is deliberately misleading. New York
cellular carrier NYNEX merely supplied the FBI with its billing data to
document the use of bogus and stolen ESN's & MIN's (Electronic Serial Numbers
and Mobile Identification Numbers) discovered in the investigation. The Secret
Service later became involved because the laws relating to the credit fraud
being allegated are under their jurisdition.
SAFE PHREAKING: In practice, cellular phreaking is very safe if one does
their own tranceiver modifications, changes ESN's & MIN's regularly, and uses
standard phone-phreak precautions. Indeed, FBI agent Greg Meecham has stated
that fraudulently programmed CMT's are "anattributable, unbillable,
untraceable and untappable." A cellular carrier will become aware of any bogus
or stolen ESN's and MIN's used on its system within a month or so after their
initial use once the subscriber or carrier who is assi gned those codes is
billed and notifies them of the error. The home carrier will then change the
legitimate subscriber's MIN in the MTSO (Mobile Telephone Switching Office) and
arrange for a new NAM (Number Assignment Module, or ROM) to be installed in t
hat subsciber's CMT transceiver. The MTSO maintains a database of all its
valid ESN/MIN pairs, as well as a "negative verify" file on all known invalid
numbers for the deadbeats and pirates in its area. The carrier may choose to
leave certain fraudulent codes active to have any activity monitored, but as
long as all parties at the receiving end of any phreaked calls become amnesiac
to any inquiries, the phreak's identity will remain secret. If a phreak uses a
different ESN & MIN every month, it'll be extremely difficult for the carrier
to react in time to gather any information.
As with any landline, inband signalling (i.e. 2600 Hz, MF tones, etc.) will
work but can be easily detected by the ESS controlling that line. Since all
cellular systems are in metropolitan areas, it's logical to assume that most
cellular lines are on ESS . Although telco security may be aware of any
blue-boxing, the links in their security chain stop at the MTSO. Moreover,
since the MTSO selects outgoing landlines from a trunk group, a pen register at
the CO would be useless for establishing any toll fr aud patterns.
Because of cellular's inherent frequency-hopping nature, it is very difficult
to track down a CMT using conventional radio direction-finding (DF) techniques,
even if it's stationary. A small directional antenna aimed randomly at
surrounding cell-site rep eaters with a TV antenna rotor will thoroughly
confuse any DF attempts, although keeping calls as short as possible is always
a good precaution. Locating a mobile CMT is virtually impossible. I was
recently given a tour of an FCC monitoring van in Washi ngton DC, and was
suprised to see how lacking in sophistication their onboard DF gear was. The
only equipment available to readily locate a CMT transmitter is primarily used
by the military and intelligence agencies, which couldn't care less about CMT
fr aud unless it involved national security.
EQUIPMENT: Most CMT's are actually two main pieces of equipment: the
transceiver and control head. The transceiver (transmitter/receiver) is
usually a nondescript metal box with three external connectors and contains
sophisticated circuitry. There are usually two main circuit boards inside: an
RF board with all the radio transmitting/receiving circuits, and a logic board
with a microprocessor, A/D & D/A circuits, and control logic. The control head
is a Touch-Tone telephone handset with an extended ke ypad, numeric or
alphanumeric display, and volume and mic mute controls. It often has a
seperate speaker mounted in the cradle for on-hook dialling and call-progress
monitoring. Some CMT's have a speakerphone option that allows you to drive
with both ha nds on the wheel by talking into a small microphone mounted near
the vehicle's sun-visor, and listening to the cradle loudspeaker. This may
seem to be the ultimate in laziness, but remember you could be maneuvering your
five-speed through heavy traffic o n the exressway when the phone rings! The
control head/cradle is usually bolted to the transmission hump by the drivers
seat, and the transceiver is usually mounted in the trunk with a power cable
connecting it to the car battery and ignition switch. A shielded control cable
links this equipment together and allows data and audio to pass between them.
Most first-generation CMT's used the AMPS bus, developed by AT&T, which
specified a system of 36 parallel wires in a bulky control cable. Some
manufactu rers later developed their own busses--Novatel's serial bus specifies
a thin cable of just a few wires which is much easier to install in vehicles.
For fixed use, a CMT may be powered by any 12-volt regulated DC power supply
that can deliver at least 5 A mperes.
Any would-be cellular phreak must first obtain a CMT. Used bargains abound
in some cities, where many subscribers found they couldn't afford to pay their
airtime bills after they bought their phone! First-generation E.F. Johnson
transceivers are a good choice because they're easy to work on, use a uniquely
effective diversity (dual-antenna) receiver, and use the AMPS control bus,
which means that several manufacturers' control heads will work with it.
Another good choice is Novatel's Aurora/150 model. It uses a proprietary
parallel bus and control head, but costs less, is very rugged, and is also easy
to work on. In addition, all Novatel CMT's have built-in diagnostics which
allow (among other things) manual scanning of all 666 repeater output freque
ncies--great entertainment when you're bored!
ANTENNAS: A mobile cellular antenna is usually a short (less than a foot
long) piece of stiff wire with a half-dozen or so turns in the middle, like a
spring. The "spring" acts as a phasing coil in a 5/8-wave configuration. The
antenna is mounted verti cally either through a hole in the vehicle's roof or
at the top of the rear windshield using silicone adhesive with conductive
plates on either side to pass RF energy right through the glass. It's not
quite as efficient as a roof mount, but most folks pr efer not to drill a hole
in their Mercedes. A 50-Ohm coaxial cable such as RG-58/U links the antenna to
the transceiver with a male TNC-type UHF connector. A ceramic duplexer allows
the transmitter and receiver to share the same antenna simultaneously. Mobile
roof-mount antennas are designed to work with the ground plane provided by the
vehicle's body, but for fixed use an "extended-feed" or voltage-fed coaxial
antenna (which requires no ground plane) can be used if there's no tin roof on
your house. A capped PVC pipe makes an ideal rooftop housing for this type of
antenna, concealing it and making it weatherproof at the same time. As with
any kind of antenna, the higher the better--but unless you're surrounded by
tall steel buildings any height will probably do (provided you're within range
of a cell-site repeater.) It should even work indoors if near a
window--remember that cellular systems are designed to work primarily with
inefficient antennas at ground-level. Yagi and corner-reflector antenna s are
available for fixed use that provide very high gain and directivity. Antenna
specialists Co. (216/791-7878) manufactures a broad line of cellular antennas.
INTERFACING: Interfacing audio devices such as MF tone-generators to a CMT
can be accomplished by coupling the device's output through an audio coupling
transformer and capacitor across the control head's microphone wires. If it's
available, a schematic diagram will show which CMT bus lines carry the transmit
audio; coupling the signal there would be preferable. Acoustic modems can be
interfaced acoustically, or by coupling the mic and speaker wires to those on
the control head or to the appropriate bu s lines. Direct-connect modems,
answering machines, regular and cordless telephones and other devices can be
interfaced to a CMT through the AB1X cellular interface manufactured by
Morrison & Dempsey Communications (818/993-0195). This compact $300 devi ce is
a one-line PBX that connects between the tranceiver and control head and
provides an RJ-11C jack that accepts ANY direct-connect telephone accessory.
It recognizes Touch-Tone and pulse dialling, provides 1.0B equivalent ringing
voltage, and generat es dial and busy tones when appropriate.
ACCESS CODES: Every CMT manufactured has a unique ESN, which is an four-byte
hexadecimal or 11-digit octal number in a ROM soldered directly to the logic
board. It's supposed to be there for life and never removed. Some newer CMT's
embed the ESN in a V LSI chip along with the unit's program code, which makes
ESN modifications virtually impossible. The ESN is also imprinted on the
receiver ID plate mounted on the outside housing. When converted to octal (11
digits), the first three digits specify the C MT manufacturer, and the other 8
identify the unit. Typical ESN's might be 13500014732 (octal) for a NEC brand
CMT, and 8E01A7F6 (hexadecimal) for a Novatel. The other important chip is the
NAM, which contains the MIN (NPA-XXX-XXXX), lock code (keeps th e kids from
using it) and various model-specific and carrier-specific codes. Some newer
CMT's have no NAM at all and use an EEPROM which allows a technician who knows
the maintenance code to change NAM data through the control head keypad.
Basically, when one attempts to make a CMT call the transceiver first
automatically transmits its ESN & NAM data to the nearest cell-site repeater by
means of the overhead data stream, or ODS. The ODS is a 10 kilobaud data
channel that links the CMT's co mputer to the MTSO computer, which controls the
phone's entire operation right down to its channel and RF output power. If the
MTSO doesn't recognize the received ESN/MIN pair as valid, it returns a reorder
signal and will not process the call. In most cities with cellular systems
there are two carriers: the wireline operator (usually Bell or the local
telco) and the non-wireline operator, an independant company. Both maintain
their own MTSO and network of cell-site repeaters, and occupy seperate halve s
of the cellular radio band. Non-wirelines operate on system A (channels 001 to
333), and wirelines on system B (channels 334 to 666.)
Custom-Calling features such as call-forwarding, call-waiting, and three-way
calling are all standard with most cellular carriers, but the procedures for
using them differ so it's best to call the carrier for more information.
OBTAINING CODES: The most difficult task for cellular phreaks and pirates is
obtaining usable ESN's and MIN's. One method involves having an accomplice who
is employed at a CMT installation center. They will have a file on every CMT
installed at that l ocation, including the ESN's & MIN's assigned to those
subscribers. Using several codes from one source could focus attention there,
however. Another method involves the help of an inside person at the cellular
carrier's customer service or billing depa rtment, where many low-paid
employees have access to thousands of valid ESN's & MIN's. The most
sophisticated method requires interfacing a CMT's A/D circuitry to a personal
computer, enabling one to literally pick valid codes out of thin air.
PROGRAMMING THE CMT: Once a valid ESN/MIN pair is obtained, it must be
programmed into the CMT's ROM'S. Some CMT manufacturers use different devices
and memory maps, but most adhere to the AMPS 16-pin, 32 x 8 bit format. The
most common ROM's are Signe tics 82S23 (open collector) and 82S123 (tri-state)
or equivalents, but it's best to check the part numbers used in your unit. The
existing ESN ROM should be carefully removed from the logic board using
grounded desoldering tools and read using a NAM prog rammer' bit-editor mode.
Any PROM programmer that is device-compatible can be used, but dedicated NAM
programmers have built-in software which greatly simplifies the process. The
ESN printed on the ID plate (if in decimal, convert to hex) should be foun d in
memory and will be immediately followed by an 8-bit checksum determined by the
8 least significant bits of the hex sum of the ESN's four bytes. The old ESN
data (now copied into the NAM programmer's RAM) should be replaced with the new
ESN and check sum. A new blank ROM of the same type should be inserted into
the programmer and "burned." It would be advisable to solder a ZIF (Zero
Insertion Force) DIP socket onto the logic board to accomodate the new ESN chip
and any future versions.
The NAM chip is usually already ZIF socketed on the logic board for easy
replacement. It, too should be copied into the NAM burner's RAM and the old
MIN replaced with the new one. The NAM checksum should also be updated to
reflect the new data. Althoug h the carrier's system parameters must also be
programmed into the NAM, they can be left the same if the NAM being changed had
previously been on the carrier now to be used. All that needs to be changed in
this case is the last four MIN digits and checks um (and maybe the exchange if
they're using more than one.) An excellent write-up on NAM programming is
available free of charge from Curtis Electro Devices (415/964-3846). Ask for
the May '87 reprint from Cellular Business magazine. Bytek Corporation
(305/994-3520) sells a good budget NAM programmer for about $500, and the
operations manual (available seperately) explains in detail the memory maps,
part numbers, and programming techniques for most CMT's on the market. This
same unit is also capable o f programming many ESN chips using the bit-editor
mode. Some carriers and their installation agents will provide NAM system
parameters on request, and some CMT service facilities will provide NAM & ESN
memory maps and schematics of specific CMT's for a p rice.
One could eliminate the need for a NAM programmer altogether by programming
and interfacing a personal computer to the CMT's ESN and NAM sockets. Another
approach is to interface 2 banks of 8 hexadecimal thumbwheel switches to the
sockets, although a com puter program would still be needed to determine the
proper switch settings. Either of these two approaches will permit quick
emulation of any CMT with an ESN & MIN of your choosing.
ROAMING: Whenever a CMT is used in a cellular system other than the one
indicated by the SID (System ID) code in its NAM, it is in the ROAM mode and
the ROAM indicator on the control head will turn on. A CMT can roam in any
system its home carrier has a roaming agreement with, and most carriers now
have roaming agreements with each other. If there is no roaming agreement, the
MTSO will transmit a recorded voice message to the CMT user with instructions
to call the carrier (the only call the CMT will be able to make) and give his
name, MIN, ESN, and American Express Card number. All roamed calls will then
be completed by the MTSO and billed to the credit card account. Fortunately,
this procedure is becoming less common as more roaming agreements are m ade.
Usually, a carrier can only determine if a roamer came from a system with
which it has a roaming agreement, not the creditworthiness of that roamer.
Consequently, many carriers have been abused by roamers who've been denied
service on their home system d ue to non-payment. Once the home carrier is
billed for roaming services provided by the roamed carrier, it will notify same
to add that ESN & MIN to their MTSO's "negative verify" file to prevent further
abuses. Several independent companies are establi shing system software and
data networks to allow Positive Roamer Verification (PRV) which will allow near
real-time roamer validation by sharing data between carriers. Because of the
many technical, financial, and political details that still need to be
resolved, PRV systems will probably not be in place for at least two more
years. In the meantime, even fictitious ESN's & MIN's can roam if they follow
the standard format, although some carriers are sharing roamer data on a
limited basis to curtail this .
To call a roaming CMT, the caller must know which system that unit is in, and
call that carrier's roaming number. Roaming numbers vary, but are usually in
the format: (NPA)XXX-ROAM, where NPA is the carrier's area code and XXX is the
MTSO exchange. Cal ling that number will return a dial or ready tone, after
