HELP! PPP settings permanently stuck on Alltel...

When I try to save the PPP settings for verizon (they are currently set to: [email protected] and I need to change to [email protected]), the settings continue to revert back to alltel!!! I really need some help with this - why would I be able to change every other setting via QPST except for PPP username and psw? Does anyone know if this has something to do with the registry? Thanks so much!
"I'm not really sure why you are editing these fields in QPST or why you would need to. If you have Verizon, flash with the latest WM6.1 that Verizon released, then flash with this ROM. Once you do *228 and get activated these settings will all be configured automatically."
I did that - I need these settings corrected so that I can access data. I am unable to do so because the settings keep reverting back to [email protected], even after I just changed them! I just now flashed back to the Sprint Stock ROM with radio 3.43 and still is unchanged!
I don't know what to do... I'm really freaking out - I did flash to an alltel ROM in the past, but why aren't the newer ROMS overwriting the old PPP settings???? Is it a radio problem (shouldn't be because I just flashed with Sprint radio ROM)
In any case, no matter what ROM I use, I cannot edit the PPP username and psw - it always reverts back to alltel. Does anyone know what I should do? Thanks!
P.S - I also installed the dcd Verizon Wireless carrier cabs and still no go...

I'm not really sure why you are flashing with all these different ROMS to be quite honest. I'm assuming that when you flash with these ROMS you aren't letting customs run? What ROM are you eventually going to be using? Do you care about being able to enable GPS?

All I care about right now is getting the PPP username and password changed.
It seems as though I cannot access the nvm folder using EFS File Explorer. I am trying to use QXDM, but I have no idea how to use it. Does anyone know what the commands are for changing PPP in QXDM?

Dude...flash with the official Verizon ROM linked below. Let customs run. Once complete dial *228 and choose option #1. Once that is complete you may have to call #8899 to get a new authentication key. Make sure your phone is unlocked with the 2.31 imcokeman unlocker, which I assume it is since you are already flashing away with various ROMs. Once you do this your settings will be fixed. You shouldn't be editing them the way you are trying. REFLASH WITH OFFICIAL VERIZON ROM...nuff said.

This is what I would do as well. What radio on you on. You say 3.43, but there is no 3.43. Check in Device Info in settings.

It souunds like you flashed an altel rom and let custmizations run.
Try flashing the stock rom (from verizon) and let customizations run. Then follow the steps to listed earlier in this thread (think the site was wiki pda) to get aGPS running. I wouldn't call Verizon for an A key until you are done flashing. Then the easy way to repopulate your phone is to go online to verizon my account and activate another phone on your line, then active your 6900. When you do this it automaticlly sends a new A key and don't have to try and explain to tech why you need it done.
Good luck

Okay I am doing that now. You are correct, I did let customizations run...
However, I was able to forcibly edit the NV Items using CDMA Workshop and that seemed to work...until I tried to edit the password with QPST. So I will give it a try and if it still doesn't work, I will just re-write the NV Items everytime I use QPST. Thanks guys.

The sreps I was refering to were in the rom thread, but here is a link.
http://wiki.ppchaven.com/index.php?title=Pocket_PC_WIki:FIX_VERIZON_GPS

I would be very careful changing stuff to verizon already.
I went into the alltel store and they won't even activate a verizon phone yet
because if you have verizon software they will bill you on a different account on verizon (if you're still under an alltel contract), which means that you will be being billed per minute and for data as a pay as you go plan.
she said this is because verizon and alltel billing systems aren't fully integrated yet.
so if you haven't resigned a verizon contract yet, meaning you're still on your original alltel contract, be careful.

It doesn't say anywhere that you need to unlock your radio to install android. How about try reading the FAQ that is in large letters in the first post. It looks something like this:
F.A.Q.
PLEASE, FOR THE SAKE OF MY SANITY. READ THE FAQ BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS.

sounds like u need to enter in your APN settings manually. or you need to do that sim card pullout for sprint users. either way, its all in the f.a.q. or the new project page. once u get data and service working, then you can log onto google account to activate the market or sync contacts.

[Q] Cant Access ##Diag#

I'm trying to flash my evo to metro pcs and every time i try to enter ##DIAG# into my phone it doesn't go through i get sprint telling my that my account isn't active. The window that is supposed to pop up doesn't what should I do?
Heres the tut telling me what I have to do:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=704161

not sure if this was resolved but what rom are you running, i believe it makes a difference as some roms and kernels don't have diag support

You may need epst 2.1. Search the forums for an epst2.1 apk . I believe epst has been updated in froyo to disable certain commands.
(##prl# is another one that probably doesn't work for you).

Would be helpful to know what all you have tried... Have you tried this?
Dial ##3282#. Tap edit and enter your MSL. Tap Others and go to the MMSC URL. Change this URL to http://mms.metropcs.net:3128/mmsc

I use to have a MetroPCS rom but I accidentally deleted, however I do recall what was where. As the above poster said, make sure the mmsc url is in ##Data##, and about yu getting everything else working, was that by using iptables? If so, not all roms support that. And if you never used iptables the first place, that may be your issue at hand here. MMS traditionally does not require 3g data, but for it to work on epic, it does.

I can aide you on the password, it used to be metropcs a long time ago, its now a calculated unique code from your meid, there's an app that tells you what your calculated code is if you look for it on the market. I would link you but the latest market with the google +1 feature doesn't have a share button anywhere.. its called MEID converter.

please help, No Data or MMS VM

Hi,
I need a little help if you dont mind. I'll get right to it.
I wasnt getting any mms on my marvelc so I did what I would have done on my old evo 3d, ##3282# then entered my msl. After that I selected data profile and restored it (which erased my data profile). On sprint network, after you do that then reboot the phone, it does hands free activation, this one doesnt do that. So I went to settings/about phone/activate phone. it went through the process and now I dont have data either, hehe, ya I know.
So I called VM and they did a 3g reconnect or something and it didnt work either. They were supposed to call me back but they didnt.
So after waiting an hour I decided they were'nt calling me back and I thought I could just RUU it back and I'd probably have my data profile back.
I got the VM/Sprint RUU from here http://www.filefactory.com/f/7b4aa0a541dcf00f/ and relocked my bootloader, then I went back to hboot and ran the RUU. It did most of the installing but stopped at hboot install and gave me an error about the hboot being a lower version and it wouldnt flash. I assume this is because I upgraded my hboot to htcdev unlock. So I'm thinking I need a newer RUU with the new hboot?
I also extracted the rom.zip from the RUU and renamed it to PG76IMG.zip and tried to flash it from hboot and it said my main version is lower, so it wouldnt go either. Do you have a lower main ver and do you know the commands to change it?
Or do you know the settings that I need to put in the data profile?
Thanks for the help.
Update. Figured out how to change the main version so I can run the RUU.
Update 2. RUU worked with the tool I used and now hboot is back to 1.06, without the relocked banner, very cool, that tool is awesome, thanks theq86. But unfortunately it didn't fix my data problem, it did give me my warranty back though

Bump for the night crew.
If anyone here has Virgin mobile us, could you please tell me a few things.
Please dial ##3282# (##data#) and select edit mode, itll ask for your password (msl). If you dont have it, you can get it with "msl reader" from the market, its free. Enter your msl and then choose edit mode.
This is what I need, PLEASE.
Active profile <--- How many
User name <--- I dont need your user name I just need to know what goes here.
SPI MN-HA <---?
SPI MN-AAA <---?
Reverse tunnel preferred <--- Enable or Disable?
Home IP Address <---?
Primary Home Agent <---?
Second Home Agent <---?
HA Shared Secret <---?
AAA Shared Secret <---?
I dont think any of this information is a secret but you can pm it to me if you dont want to post it.
Any information will help at this point. Thanks.

hi
may sound a bit obvious but are you sure you have turned on mobile data??
and if not you may need to set up the correct apn (access point name) if you dont have it drop into your local service providers shop and ask them to fill it in for you
my wildfire (buzz) has a lot of issues with incorrect apn settings when i switch between roms. and if you dont have the correct setting your mobile data will not work. so give that a bash if you havent already.
good luck

Thanks for the reply, I wish that was my problem, but its not. When I went to edit mode after typing ##data# I chose to restore and that zero'd out all my data profile settings (smart huh). After talking to the 3rd tier of tech support they said that they needed to send my case to HQ. He said he'd done all he could. I just need those settings back. I asked him if he knew the AAA shared secret and he didn't know what I was talking about. The mobile data setting says no connection available when it is checked.

brutal man. sorry hopefully someone else can help out

Sorry to resurrect this thread but I just wanted to update it incase someone else has the same issue I did.
After about 2 weeks and about 50 virgin mobile reps later, they finally told me that my phone cannot be fixed. I told them exactly what happened and they still thought its because of a bad phone, whatever, I'm not gonna argue. I ran an ruu, did multiple factory resets, did a ## code to activate the phone, they reactivated the phone, nothing restored my data profile. I thought for sure that the ruu would do it but I guess the ruu is just HTC software and what I need is virgin mobile data.
Lesson learned, do not erase your data profile or you're screwed. I think theres a way to back that stuff up and I'm gonna do some research to figure it out. I should have my new wildfire s in about 3 days. I know that someone woulda helped if they could have so thanks anyway.
