well I can tell you it can be done with everything working but mms. my brother in law has the solution and his ego is working on cricket with everything but mms.

Same here. I have an Evo on Cricket including market and apps except for MMS. The autostart/u2nl method for the Eris works on the Evo using the same autostart.sh script (unmodified). However the 3G connection is flaky and times out frequently. Also I get random Data Call error 98 messages related to Sprint stuff still on the phone. (I'm running a rooted stock 2.1 ROM)
I also noticed that during the toast root process I was able to ##778# (quite to my surprise) then it went away when I flashed the whitslack update ROM (upgrades radio, wimax, etc).
The strange thing re: MMS is that I tried the APN backup/restore option which worked on the Eris and it "appears" to work. The configuration settings within the Message application "look" right for Production but alas I still cannot receive or send pic messages. No biggie (I ain't paying someone just to get MMS working) but would be nice to have it working. Seems like overkill to have to create an entire ROM just to get MMS working.
Anyway...it's quite frustrating since the Eris works perfectly on Cricket with the autostart/u2nl solution.
##778# and any other ## command doesnt work for me anymore. any ideas to fix?

Anycut can link to EPST settings.
Chances are the reason it works in one rom and not another is due to the apk's installed. look for differences in the framework folder - the lib folder - and the /system/app folder from your rom that is working the rom that is not.
I belive the EPST settings are native to stock HTC roms and thus not included in a cyanogen based rom (thats how it is on the eris at least). Most people on the phone's true network will never need EPST so it may be getting removed by the rom developer to cut down on space and increase speed etc.
just my thoughts.
just go to settings-
Applications-manage applications-All-
customizable settings provider- then press clear
data-press back once-find settings-press clear
data-than you should find in applications
"unknown sources"
I thought AT&T pushed out an update on the stock Inspires a while back that allows sideloading in a much simpler way? Settings>>Applications>>put a check mark on "Unknown sources" or something like that. No need to go through those hoops you mentioned I thought.

I'm still waiting for that update unfortunately.
Also, doesn't this method break MMS or something? I'm so used to sideloading via adb that it doesn't even bother me anymore. Only hassle is getting my Amazon AppStore apps on to my phone.
Worked for me, thanks!

Ok good to know. I figured everyone had this update by now but apparently not (stupid AT&T).
yes it does break mms, and still havent figured out why although havent been to worried about it.
Also changing apn settings doesnt work either, tried several even copied my brothers exactly, restored mine from a back up and still no mms.
Have to restore phone to get mms back and lose unknown source option.

And I'm sure you're the one who originally discovered this trick, right?
While I'm sure your intentions are good, how about at least giving proper credit if you're going to recycle information?

I hope you don't have a bunch of data on your phone, you're going ro have to do a factory reset to get MMS working again.
Scott_S, of course not, it's all over youtube... n i wasn't aware it breaks mms either..

Like I said, I don't think you had evil intentions, just that chances are, with this kind of stuff, it originated here on XDA, so when it's posted again, with no reference to it's originator, it kinda sticks out.
No worries. Just for future reference...

thanks... so i tried my mms and it WAS broken. I was able to fix it by adding a new APN with the correct settings. I got it from searching google.

I did this APN settings and chose it thereafter...

all i did was create a New APN. after creating it, i chose it as my default APN (dotted)
works for me. stock build number 1.84.50211 CL341719 release-keys
As far as i know, your the only one that it works for, considering i have tried pretty much all apn's that i could find, including backup of my old apn pre clearing those settings. Others have tried doing same thing works for no one to my knowledge.
I've yet to receive the update as well. I used superoneclick, temp. rooted the phone, ran the "allow non market apps" feature and now collect my free app of the day every day. My phone is not rooted/flashed and I've freed myself from the wonder machine. Easiest and most underrated method in my opinion.

Instead of doing this and potentially ruining your MMS, you should call AT&T and they will push the update to your phone... worked for me when I was sick of waiting.
Using SuperOneClick doesn't break mms. It is a different hack that breaks mms. SOC doesn't add the option to the menu, but it does enable it.

if u wanna do this without rooting just get yourself temp root go to the market and get the unknown sources app and run it. you have to be rooted to run it but the unknown sources box stays if not rooted. I personally have not done this I'm rooted with a custom rom this is just what I read give it a try

you need to run the connection setup wizard, or add the Nokia APN directly
not sure if the wizard is available to Nokia given its an HTC app but adding the APN is dead easy
what network you on?
If you go to your marketplace and under nokia collections, there is a nokia app called Network Setup. Install that so everytime you put in asim, it'll automatically download the APN settings for your carrier.

yeah they couldnt help cuz windows devices are not supported by them. Funny thing i noticed even though i cant access the internet every now and then i would get emails or notifications from facebook or whatsapp. wifi off, also the 4g icon is always there.
That's odd, those settings are from their own website for proper WP device, the HD7, sounds like something else is wrong here, consider changing radio rom or reflashing

use tmobile settings works for internet still testing for mms
**UPDATE for 4.4.2** -- see this thread. Basically the tether_dun_required database fix from Nexus devices for those familiar with it; MikeyNick posted a great summary there if you're not.
This mod is for T-Mobile US users to redirect built-in tethering from pcweb to the usual fast apn. All you have to do is flash the attached zip and delete the stock "T-Mobile Tethering" APN and everything should work.
--- rambling begins ---
Well, I took the plunge on the Moto Maker not-Cyber-Monday deal and, upon receiving the thing yesterday, was shocked to learn that nobody had made a mod to enable native tethering for those of us with grandfathered unlimited plans. Of course, magenta just has to be different and doesn't use the same restrictions that everyone else uses. The obvious problem is the absence of the entitlement service that performs the check on the other three major US operators; rather, no matter how I configured my apns, the dumb thing still managed to go through pcweb.
So of course the only thing to do is to go searching through system apks. Turns out there is a hardcoded reference to pcweb under framework-res/res/values-mcc310-mnc260/strings.xml, so I changed that to refer to fast.t-mobile.com, and voila! I did change a few other things around in my earlier quest to get this working so if you're comfortable with your phone, please give it a shot and let me know if it works for you.
Many thanks to chaoslimits for his thread, which explained to me how to get apktool to actually build my framework-res.
Thanks for your efforts! I'll give it a shot!
It works! Thank you! Will keep an eye on my data and billing.

Thanks for the report! Did you apply any other mods (e.g. settings database/APN changes)? It's my suspicion that the only requirement is the modified framework and then changing the stock tethering APN in the Mobile Networks settings, but I haven't tried doing this on a clean install.
Maybe I am not understanding this. Do you mean to say if I use the Power Toggles to activate tethering it will notify Tmobile?
What is the source of the changes made to framework-res.apk
Can you share?

There is never any notification; the issue is how the built-in hotspot activated by power toggles routes traffic. T-Mobile devices use a different APN for tethering (pcweb.tmobile.com), which is what directs clients to the hotspot upsell page. This mod simply redirects traffic so it goes through the same APN as your phone's data (fast.t-mobile.com).

As I said in my post, there is a single xml property that refers to pcweb under framework-res/res/values-mcc310-mnc260/strings.xml, which I changed to fast. There is no "source"; I just decompiled, modified, and recompiled framework-res.apk.

Thanks again for the info.
Later tonight I should have some time to flash my phone back to complete stock and see exactly how much is necessary to get tethering working from there. Hopefully I'll be able to update the OP with a friendly set of instructions to get a stock build to be tethering-ready.

Sorry, perhaps I should have been more clear in the OP. This mod is only relevant to T-Mobile US users. It will not do anything if you are on Orange.
Awesome work! What are the requirements for this? Unlocked BL? Root? Just received my Moto X and still undecided to unlock the BL. Currently on 4.2.2

The only hard requirement to get this working is write access to /system. I have an unlocked bootloader and the zip is designed to be flashed in a custom recovery (I use TWRP 2.6.3.1). However, all the zip does is replace one file (/system/framework/framework-res.apk). I am not familiar with the various hacks required to achieve sysrw without unlocking the bootloader, but I expect it would be possible.

Are you saying that you can't use native tethering on Orange? If you want to give me some information about your APN setup and how Orange deals with tethering I might be able to help, but this mod should have no effect on your phone running on Orange. The only thing this mod does is change how the phone connects tethered devices through the T-Mobile US network.

Nice work. I have been looking for this, but recently went to the KANGAKAT ROM that is based off the same TMO 140.44.3 build. Would I be able to use this patched APK while on KANGAKAT ROM?

The mod itself should work as kangkat is based on stock firmware, but flashing this may mess up some of the built-in mods for kangkat--I don't know the details of what ib4stid did. If you're feeling adventurous, back up your framework-res and flash this to see if it messes anything up.
If you're not feeling adventurous, I can mod the kangkat framwork-res and you can give that a try instead.
EDIT: See attachment, if you want. I didn't actually install kangkat or anything, so let me know how it goes.

So if I am on Tmo, how would I know I am on pcweb when tethering... How would test this to see whether it's fast or pcweb...

If you have a data plan with T-Mobile that doesn't include tethering, any attempt at using the internet via tethering will direct the tethered device to an upsell page which basically says "you need to add this service to your account." That page means the traffic is being routed through the tethering APN (pcweb.tmobile.com) instead of the normal APN (fast.t-mobile.com for LTE devices). If you tether and it works then you either have a tethering plan, or your tethered data is going through the same APN as your phone's data.
Im being to seriously hate this cell!!!!! I have the ST SCH-S968C a.k.a i535 VERIZON stock 4.1.2. I upgraded to CM11 4.4.x and I get NO DATA!!!! Copied my EFS files from stock to KK and still NO DATA!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im now forced to use AOSP...I have DATA but NO MMS!!!!!!!!!!!! I have to use a third party SMS. ASOP wont save ANY APNS. Once upgraded, your APN CONF file gets LOADED with TONS of APNS settting but still SMS wont work...even after coping stock APNs file to folder. I dont understand why they do this....hey HOW ABOUT LETTING US SAVE THE APN SETTINGs. HUH!!!!!! STOP making unusable roms...Yea.... I got 4.4x but can only use wifi...yea!!!!!!!!!! And another thing AOSP, how about including a music player for your roms!?!?! or how about VOICE DIALER!!!!!!!!!!!! so [email protected] awesome!!!!!!! and leave the damn APN CONF files alone huh.. The GS2 on Virgin Mobile running CM11 is what you need to resort to. Once upgraded, go to VOCE DIALER say "OPEN APNS" and save the APNS. The best part, IT WOULD ACTUALLY SAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I swear to God, Im going to buy an iPhone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
