First of all, let me know if I posted in the wrong section; I did not see a section for the Optimus S.
Now to the problem, I already have the Optimus S rooted and with custom rom and flashed to metro pcs. Talk and texting work but the web does not. I read other threads here but they are for other devices. Can anybody point me on how to get the data working on this phone? Thanks in advance.
No info on this? There has to be other people with the same issue. Thanks in advance.
Do the threads here on the Evo apply to this?
Nothing?lol
Hi how did you get the message working?
Do you have the picture message working as well?
The text messaging works by itself by just flashing it. But the picture mail does not work. Can somebody please help me out. Can I follow the thread on the EVO and do the same thing?
Help please. lol
TRY DIALING ##778 choose edit enter six 0 (000000) go to MIP_MODE and choose (simply ip only) I have a alltell mogul flashed to metropcs and this Mip_mode was set to mobile ip thus stopping the data from coming in if that make sence.
also you my need a metropcs exel calculator to get the correct password for the data server. to turn your ESN (DEC) number into a into a 6 diget number to enter as the password
so if you phone number is
768-789-0987
it will look like this
user name: [email protected]
password: 6 degit number
the password might be placed where it said (shared) some where in one of those menus...
hope this helps some one bye

I would like to know that too
If you really want it on verizon you could ask an authorized verizon retailer to basically do this same thing for you. they love signing people up this way as they get to pocket the normal phone subsidy ($250 on the evo).
does 3g work?

Well you can pretty much get Verizon coverage from that other thread using Altell's towers. Too bad ping gets raised, but hell... way better signal and speedtests

Congratulations buddy!
Thanks a hell of a lot for giving us this how to guide. I really appreciate it
Just had 3 questions:
1) Are you getting 3g data in Atlanta or is it just Edge?
2) What plan did you sign up for at MetroPCS?
3) If you decide you don't like MetroPCS, how do you reverse this process back to Sprint service?
Thanks again for figuring this out

that probably depends on the tower coverage for the specific geographical location ...
i see the directions mention HTC Hero a few times. has anybody confirmed this works on the EVO?
Lol, I just spent all night trying to figure this out and you have made it very easy. Thanks. The Diag Drivers link doesn't work but I am sure we could find it somewhere else.
I do have one question. Do you still need to have a Metro PCS dealer add the ESN to their network?

Yes the ESN needs to be added to Metro's inventory. I had them add it and wallaahhh!
What works and what doesn't?
Can you list what works and what does not? I'm particularly curious about a stable 3G.

I see... so for $50/mo (contract free) I can get the the same things that Sprint is offering me for $80/mo. When you minus the extra cost to buy the phone full retail $449 vs $199 on contract you actually saving about $570 over a two year period...
Hard choice
3G unstable
I have tried many configurations and no matter what I do, it seems that the "mobile network" connection is not stable. It will go out periodically and say "connection failed" or "turning on". Can you verify that you are not having this issue?
Also, this obviously does not bypass the WAP proxy which is used by Cricket. This means that other protocols, such as those used in navigation software and YouTube, are going to be blocked by the proxy server. Does anyone know a way around this?

google around for the droid eris cricket tutorial. that has the proper method to set it up, and it works on all other cdma htc android phones.
i believe it is posted on howardfourms under the cricket section.
I myself was wondering if it was the same because I flashed my evo to cricket the same way just off of flashing know how....going to try and see if the Eris method matches what needs to be done to the evo and will report back
Okay you guys I just bought a Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 a few days ago and I have it active on my boost mobile account.
1st question: should i put my boost SIM card inside the tp2?
Main question: I have been having data (internet, youtube, email) connection. What can i do to fix this problem? It has been saying #777 cant connect dismiss and error.
me too
I just bought am going to take on the feat off getting it to work in boost, please email any info to [email protected]
Am I wrong or does the htc pro touch 2 not have a sim?
You guys need to contact your carrier and get the Internet settings from them. Your phone isn't made of magic. lol
I have already ported my boost cdma number to the htc pro touch 2 and internet and youtube work, but my gmail on there receives messages but then asks for id and password when I try to respond to messages.
what OS you running? did you manually insert the msid and mdn?

i had the same problem what i did is a hard reset and the internet should work.
1st question is did you sign up for the boost CDMA plan? That's the main reason for using the Sprint TP2. You need to ask for the CDMA otherwise, they will set you up with the iden plan. Check that first. then post a fallow up question. good luck
take a look here you might find your answer

I have the same issue here,with internet and mms. Did anyone here know the boost mobile internet setting? If so,please do share. Thanks.
i think a hard reset is all thats needed. its all mine has ever needed. i have been through 10 roms at least and once it boots the net just works. as for Gmail make sure your email settings are correct. i cant remember but if there is a "save password" option on there you need to use it.
Here's a boost mobile provisioning I made for sprint TP2
I'm told it works: Here
Me too!
I Have this same problem does anyone know data connections for boost? ie #777
Hi. I've found this site to be very helpful in my attempts to activate an Alltel HTC Hero cdma on the Page Plus network.
I finally got the phone to make calls, but it says that I'm roaming - there's a triangle above the signal strength meter. I checked it by making a call and it charges me the roaming rate of $0.29 a minute. I think I need an updated .prl file, but I'm not sure.
I'm able to send and receive text. I cannot send or receive MMS or connect to the internet.
Maybe someone here can help me. Please
Phone will be used in Berlin, WI 54923 (Near the following cities: Appleton, Oshkosh, Neenah, Fond du Lac)
Original phone details:
Alltel network, but Alltel is no longer in my area. Alltel customers were sent to Element One. I don't know if this affects what I'm trying to do.
Phone # (MDN) 920xxxxxxx
MSID (MIN) 9202900444
SIN/NID 1/65535
MMS Server url mms.alltel.com/servlets/mms
I rooted the phone and got my MSL (000000) number and made the following changes
Phone # (MDN) 920xxxxxxx
MSID (MIN) 9202799238 (from Page Plus)
SIN/NID 240/65535 (got "240" from Page Plus, they couldn't give me a NID number so I used the same one)
MMS Server url mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms (got this from searching on forums)
I downloaded a .prl file via KittyWireless manual programming instructions kittywireless.com/pageplus/pageplusmanualprogramming.html
I updated the PRL from my sd card by dailing ##775# and "commit changes"
When I make a call, I'm always asked to re-enter the 10 digit phone number I'm trying to reach. I've tried the following OTA programming numbers *228, *22800, *22888, *22890, *22891. I always get the following "Message AP 32 Welcome to US Cellular ..." It should be Verizon or Alltel, right?
I thought I might be using the wrong NID number so I tried 65335 (which I think is for Verizon), but it didn't make a difference. Still roaming and same messages when I try OTA programming.
I don't know if this means anything, but when I dial ##DATA# to edit mode I can choose either Data Profile, EVDO, or Advanced. If I choose EVDO, I get a blank screen. I can't make any changes.
So, I'm thinking I need a different prl file. Would this affect my data connection for internet and MMS too? What do you guys think? Can someone direct me to the right PRL file?
I've spent hours trying to get this phone to work... if you have any suggestions let me know.
Thanks!
PRL Update...
Hi there..
I've found the following PRLs useful when using Sprint Phones on Pageplus, so perhaps they will help with the Alltel Hero. I've used 51425m on my Alltel Hero on Pageplus. Worked like a charm. The 52505m is the latest VZW EvDo PRL.
Noticed the thread is old, but may help anyone else trying to do this.
Ive been trying to get 3g data working with my Nexus S on Pageplus.
All I can get is either a good 1X data connection or a slow, intermittent 3g connection.
I will try these PRL's when I get home.
Thanks!
any luck on getting this working yet ??? I can not find any solutions anywhere
You contact your carriers

I'm using an unlocked LG Optimus 7 phone (Mango, build 7720) on the T-Mobile USA network. Aside from a lack of 3G support on the T-Mo USA network, this phone is really working great*!
...*except for MMS support.
For whatever reason, the built-in profiles for this phone do NOT include T-Mobile USA, which is really a bummer. I was able to test with an AT&T sim card, change the profile accordingly, and test MMS -- and that worked fine -- but no such luck with T-Mo USA... even with adding a new APN.
Has anyone figured this out? Since we have access to the registry via the MFG app, can we get in there and change the necessary values? MMS isn't the most critical function, but it is awfully nice to have.
Anyone??
Try this basically you need to set a flag to re-get the apn settings from your network.

Wow. That did it! I've tried EVERYTHING *except* for those little registry keys that you mentioned, and honestly... I only needed to change the "ConfigurationStatus" entry. Crazy!
For the record, I....
- Launched the MFG app
- Went to the Engineer Menu > Other Setting
- Opened the Edit Registry item
- Chose HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE from the 1. drop down
- Entered System\AutoDataConfig for the Input SUB_PATH
- Entered in each of the provided four entries for the Input KEY (and chose DWORD instead of String)
- Hit Query to find the current value
- Typed in the proper value (if needed) for the Input Data field and hit Set
- Hit Query one last time to verify
When all was completed, I backed out, turned off the phone, booted back up and tested. Voila! Working like a charm.

MMS does indeed require a data connection. Or more accurately a mms plan and the ability to use your carriers data connection.
100% worked
i have tried many options, it was this one wich worked with me
i am using Etisalat - UAE sim card with LG E900

It's been working great, but for some reason I keep "losing" my ability to send/receive MMS messages. I'll go through the four registry values....
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\AutoDataConfig]
"RunADC"=dword:1
"ConfigurationStatus"=dword:0
"Attempt"=dword:0
"MaxAttemptsAllowed"=dword:3
....and I'm finding that "RunADC", "Attempt", and "MaxAttemptsAllowed" all seem to have NULL values when I query them. "ConfigurationStatus" has consistently remained with a "0" (zero) value.
Anyone else see this behavior? Any fix?

My values are resetting too, but it happens as soon as I restart my device, so I dont even get temporary MMS ability... ConfigurationStatus and Attempt reset to 1. The others remain as the values I set them too.
I also tried some recommendations from another thread. No luck at all.
I have an unlocked HTC one m7 and I am trying to make it work with straight talk. I had an iphone before and switched over the sim card. I went un and changed the apn settings, and everything works (other than my data is not even 3g, let alone 4g). The only thing that doesn't work, other than having slow data, is my mms. I can't send or receive picture messages. I can change my apn setting but my phone won't let me change anything else, such as the proxy or mmsc. I'm sure I need to go in and edit those settings and then everything will be fine. Why is my phone letting me edit apn but not any of the other settings? There's also nowhere for me to press edit or create a new apn profile. The only options are "save" and "discard". Any help is greatly appreciate. Thank you!
