need help for cricket internet!!!! asap

as i stated in an earlier post i have what once was a telus issued htc touch p3050 which i have been informed is the same as a 6900. i took my phone to a local phone flasher and was given back a partially flashed phone. to make outgoing and recieve incoming phone calls the phone works great!! however when i try to connect to the internet... i follow all the setup rules of the wap.cricket.com, [email protected], and port 8080 etc...
when i try to connect it tells me i have a bad username or password.
the phone attempts to dial the #777 too.
ok now here are some mitigating factors i should tell u about...
-when i soft reset the phone i get an alltel slash screen even tho the phone operates on the cricket network.
-when i go into the settings to futz with the internet settings i also get choices for an alltel phone.
-and as told earlier by a few folks i checked in my pst settings and my phone is in fact already on the simple ip settings...
please help!!!!
i really want and need internet!!!
i would be willing to try and reflash the phone with another rom but i can't get the qpst to recognize my phone... cuz it only allows me to open one additional port in addition to the two that already exist...i keep getting a port busy error...
thanks in advance!!!

you realy need to just flash it yourself with a new rom... check your radio (3.35 & up) and then switch to one of vetvito's roms. after you flash it remember to set the phone todiag mode (##3424) so qpst will see it. you might need to change the port via the device manager. make sure you have the drivers you need (ppc6700 drives work fine)... Do ur *228 stuff after you change the spc to all 0's. if ever in doubt ##778 to check your epst settings. for internet, setup ur modem & proxy in the connection manager. be sure to use your real number and "cricket" as the pw. This is not a full walkthough, but the just main points you need to touch on.
good luck

make sure all ur epst settings are correct...check and see if u have the newest prl uploaded 1050 i believe is the new evdo one...also go to select networks in the connections/connections/advanced and make them all to the one u want to connect through

do u know where i can get the new prl. i installed the 1040 and its only 1X

Cricket on HTC Apache PPC6700
I have the PRL loaded. Internet is a b*tch! Every time I do a soft reset, the sprint connections come back. Then I have to delete the Sprint one, and goto the wap.... whatever whatever site to get it on the internet. And its only 1X. Here is a link to PRL's. http://corolada.com/prl/
If ANYONE out there is willing to make me a Cricket rom for my 6700 Apache, you will be my best friend. It would be nice to not have to load a random PRL every time i hard reset my phone and mess with connections forever just to get slow as heck 1X speeds. If you can, just make a rapidshare link to the exe. Helmi's WM6 rom is bad and doesn't work right. And I don't know how to use BuildOS and my friend has used it several times on his VZW apache. But it won't work right for some reason. All I am asking for is a rom or cab or something to get internet to work. i don't even care that much about mms. even tough it would be nice

@tbananaz: Go to Howardforums.com under the cricket forum and looks for To0's V2 ROM for the 6900. You might have to PM him for it. Out of the box its has everything for cricket aside from changing a few things under EPST. The easiest way to get your phone working with everything with Cricket.
@disturb3d1: Your best bet for the 6700 would be to build a ROM for yourself for Cricket. Download PPCkitchen and make one. Its pretty straightforward and has everything including Crickets OEM info. So you don't have to mess with any other carriers settings.
If you any of you need help let me know. 8)

Cant get MMS to work on Dash with WM6.1 (unlocked to work with ATT)

I cant recieve any MMS or send them either. They just stay in the outbox when I try to send them. When I was with tmobile, they worked, but then I unlocked my phone, switched to ATT, and upgraded to WM6.1 and they no longer work.
What can I do?
Thanks

Thanks! I actually tried this before, but it wasn't working until I did a few different things. Whenever it tells you to add something, make sure you delete everything else first. I don't know if there really is any difference, but it worked for me.

Can you please provide more detail? I've had no luck trying to send picture thru mms.

Yah I have tried to help him with no success either... Hopefully someone out there is using At&t and is able to help him out.

Arite man here goes nothing, but an attempt...
I work in the technical department of a cellular service provider in the caribbean. We are not as advanced as the americans, etc in the sense of having 3g and stuff like that. Anyways, lol we do provide edge service and i have a dash w/wm6.1 Rom. I also have blackberry connect on my device. Up until recently i never tried sending MMS, so when i attempted to, i ran into a similar error. after reading a thread to fix on here, i finally received my first MMS (which was pending for days by the way), but i still couldnt send.
here's my fix...
since im using BB connect on my device, im connected with EDGE all the time. so i used my connection settings and just added or subtracted a few options from the MMS settings.
the only options i ticked in the settings were: automatic download in home and roaming network, save sent messages and allow delivery report. i then inserted the necessary MMS settings provided by my network: URL, Gateway, Port; always connect via the Internet. After this i was able to receive.
The problem with my network is that it uses WAP or blackberry to send or receive MMS, but since im using BB connect, i wouldnt have all the defaulted settings as a BB device would, so i had to set up a WAP connection and i was able to get rid of my messaged stored in the outbox.
this should be a good solution for you if you know the settings for your service provider, or you can always call and ask for the settings, since it cannot be sent OTA with the Dash.
Yea i know its kind of a long post, but i wanted to give a detailed rundown of how i got mine to work.

[Q] HELP ME!!! Cant access internet on 3

Hi guys, hopefully someone can give me some advice on this issue or point me in the right direction.
I purchased a black HTC desire (8181) phone with Orange branding.
Now ... I use a 3 network sim card.
I have two problems .....
1. I cannot connect to the internet even though i have a data pack from 3. I have even called up their technical department and they have gone through some settings with me but im still unable to get it connecting.
2. I cannot send an MMS for some reason. It keeps on automatically trying but doesnt go through. Ive tried a couple of different files but with the same result.
I really miss my internet
Please help guys
Thanking you in advance

Nor can I, I think there's an issue with orange at the moment. Can't get through to customer service either and I'm a high user customer so I don't usually have much of a wait getting through. Some one elsewhere on tinternet. Thinks they are doing tests prior to merging with other operator

...does yout device try to establish a data connection?
Maybe you have no/false apn's.
Check your apns!

The device does try to load the internet but it doesnt.
According to 3 my APN settings should be "3services" and APN type is "default"

Flashing Samsung Fascinate To Cricket Walk Through

Flashing Samsung Fascinate To Cricket!!!!
ok so this is the one phone that has made me wanna punch my screen since i got it. amazing phone but hell an a half an very difficult to flash. OK so to start there are programs out there u can purchase to flash this phone if u wanna pay 100 dollars or 65 at a shop. but well im cheap so i set hours on end figuring what i could out. this tutorial will get u talk, text, 3g, internet an ability to send mms (to recieve has been difficult because there is a lock code to get to those features that ive been unable to find out)...
WHAT YOU WILL NEED!!!
QPST. 2.7 build 323 an build 215.
a Samsung fascinate.
PATIENCE!!
samsung fascinate drivers
and samsung epic drivers
first you will want to turn on usb debug mode, stay awake while plugged in, mock location(applications /developer menu). o an dial up mode(in wireless settings). install all the drivers before plugging phone in. after that plug in the phone. now as always you will want this phone on COM PORT 1. . (if u dont know how to do this u have to get to control panel then systems then hardware tab then select device manager. from there go to ports right click the samsung. then port settings tab then advanced. there will be a number toward the middle bottom set it as com port 1 then ok ok ok ok untill ur back to device manager then exit device manager) open qpst system programming. phone should show if not go to qpst config an set it up.
now in qpst system programming u will select the phone an it will ask for the spc. it is six 0's (ZERO's). then select read phone . now go to the roam tab. then u will see a prefered roaming box click the browse button an select the prl you wish to use. (nationwide 3g prl is best i use 42800 which is for the zio) now write to phone it will restart.. from here after the phone restarts open up qpst again an go thru the first process except do not go to the roam option. click the cdma tab an select nam1 if not already selected(ONLY nam1 NOT nam2 if u r dumb enough to mess with nam2 i am not responsible for the outcome )in nam 1 select set to default. now go to m.ip an delete all entrys. click write to phone it will again restart..
ps after you load the prl to the phone do a factory reset to clear out a few of the system logs to help everything go thru smooth
FUN TIME!!!! after phone reboots click the dialer menu (if its asking to program push the power button as if u r turning it off then select airplane mode. then restart the phone while in airplane mode(trick to get around that pesky activation menu).now after that boot select the dialer an enter *#83786633 an press home. got back to dialer an delete whatever is in it. if nothing ok now enter *#22745927 it will then ask for the spc code it is six 0's (ZERO's). now select to enable hidden menu. from there accept an what not if it ask an get to the home screen after hidden menu is enabled.
now again enter dialer make sure its clear an press **772 it will again ask for spc it is all six 0's (ZERO's) 000000. now from there it will show a service programming menu. press down slowly till u reach nam1 CDMA directory number. this will be your number click touch here u enter your number (for example 937-000-0000) now after that press enter then the back softkey to exit keyboard then press the down button this will bring u to a screen where u can enter your min(if u do not know it call cricket an ask them to bring it up for u. easier to call a local store an get this info. after u enter it press the back softkey u should be on cdma home sid. u will need to know your sid or find it out (google is your friend an so is your cricket store employee's) . enter it then press enter an exit the keyboard an when u see the exit screen hit ok. phone will reboot.
now u will have to of course have your phone activated to go any further so u know that process. (ps u can also activate it after u get the prl on it but until u do the hidden menu process it wont be active)
u now have text an calling but here comes the advanced user portion lol.
GETTING 3G
u will need to get the backup restore apn app from the market place its free. (email me an i can send u a copy).
u will need to install it an then backup apn. it will save to your sd card. plug it in to the computer an copy it to ur pc.
open the file in notepad as administrator the file will have all verizon settings change them to cricket. here is an example of mine after i changed it to cricket
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='yes' ?>
<apns count="1">
<apn name="Cricket" numeric="310012" mcc="310" mnc="012" apn="internet" user="[email protected] " server="*" password="cricket" proxy="null" port="null" mmsproxy="null" mmsport="8080" mmsprotocol="null" mmsc="http://mms.mycricket.com/servlets/mms?x-cricket-mdn=937_000_0000" type="null" />
</apns>
where the phone numbers are those will all need to be your number. an my mnc is 012 yours may be different but thats an ideal of the settings that u need to change. next u will save that file an place it on your memory card over the original file (overwrite the one on your sd card). after that access the apn backup app an delete all apns(DO NOT DELETE THE BACKUPS U NEED THEM!!!!!)now click restore apn it will ask which one an restore the one u just modified). now here is the funnest part but if done right u will have 3g......
first u will need to use qpst to setup your m.ip settings. u must use qpst 2.7 build 323. u will change your settings to cricket settings. . i can not completely remember the steps but u can google them on this part but make sure u click ur profile an change your numbers to @mycricket.com instead of the verizon settings. after that change both the ha and aaa passwords to cricket an set the home address to 0.0.0.0 then set the primary home address to 68.28.15.12 an then set second home to 68.28.31.12. after this write to phone after restart unistall qpst.
now u will install qpst 2.7 build 215. an go thru nearly the same process but in the ppp config menu. in here u will change your numbers emails to @mycricket.com in the UM and AN tabs an set the passwords to cricket. make sure in the um u change the tethered nai number to your number @mycricket.com. then write to phone an after restart turn off dial up mode an WALA flashed your fascinate.
ALSO ON A SIDE NOTE TO FURTHER EMPHASIZE THIS when u get the phone activated be sure to tell them its a zio *wink wink* so it will register in the system as a zio which will help more after u get 3g up an running. an all features only work on the 55 dollar plan
SORRY IF I GET A LITTLE SLURRY TOWARD THE END IM HUNGRY AN NEED A NAP LMAO
PS MMS WILL WORK IF THE APN IS DONE CORRECTLY AS SHOWN ABOVE!! MINE IS OFFICIALLY WORKING SOLIDLY (INGOING AN OUTGOING)

help
Hi, I was wondering if you were ever able to get MMS to work. I took my phone to the store to get it flashed and I was so upset afterwords. They flashed it however my MMS does not work. I can not send any messages out and I can get them in only from certain people. I have had several people try to send me messages and I was able to get them in from a few. Please help if you can..

for some reason cricket did some updates to their midwest region an now occasionally you wont receive mms from t-mobile or verizon customers an random other carriers if the picture crosses the maximum image size criteria. its odd. i just have em send the mms to my google mail. i recieve 98 percent of my mms tho using handsent mms so download it from the market place

works perfectly
Ok so Im gonna start by apologizing for bringing up an old thread and stating that I am not a noob in the flashing game just been a long time observer but I can vouche that this works for flashing to boost mobile. Only issue is getting vm to work but as far as 3g and data thats a different story, its hell I onlly have 1x speeds with data as we speak.
BTW mms lock code is 500667 but be very careful as you can get locked out after many times of messing with it and fixing will make you want to smash the phone into a millions pieces. I can vouche for it personally. Now my advice is if you see anything verizon in there that is why your mms is not working do not edit it in there as it will just revert back to original after reboot. You have to complete debrand the phone in order to get these settings to stick and fix the mms lock out after many stupid attempts. GOOGLE IS YOUR FRIEND ON HOW TO DEBRAND!
Hope my first post helps out someone.

ability to send mms (to recieve has been difficult because there is a lock code to get to those features that ive been unable to find out)...

I stumbled upon this thread by a google search.. what a weird concept
Thought I'd contribute, I Don't know if it's been pointed out anywhere else yet- Samsung has been tricky with this for quite a long time. This specifically brings to mind my SCH-a870. The MMS lock code on Samsungs is typically 6 digits, the first three are the model number of the phone, the last three spell out MMS on a phone keypad. In this case, it would be 500667.
Good luck & happy hacking!

Now from what I am hearing is that you have to physically bring in a flashed cricket phone to a cricket store to have it activated. Cricket do not enter flashed phones esn information over the phone. Now does anyone know any other method of getting the phone activated besides going into a cricket store or sending your phone via snail mail to a remote person?
And someone mentioned boost mobile. Boot act funny towards adding non-boost mobile phones to their databases, so how are you people doing that?

I have a Fascinate on 2.2.1 There is no Dial up option & teather doesn't connect right... NE idea how 2 connect?

Hey there! Sorry to bring up an old post, but I have a question regarding this flashing business. I'm set up on Cricket's $35/month talk and text only plan and I had them flash my Fascinate to talk and text only since I don't want/use data (only wifi). I want to start messing around with the phone, but I'm afraid of losing the talk&text only flash. Should this happen will this guide allow me to flash to only talk and text with some modification? (I would LIKE MMS but there is supposedly no supporting plan for smartphones without data...)

The $35 plan does not support MMS. Only the $45 dollar plan and the smartphone plans support it. Although if you set your account up with AutoBillPay you save $5/month. You will need the phone to be fully flashed in order to support it.

[Q] Message not sent error on XDAndroid

Hello everybody. I would appreciate it if anyone can help me with this problem. I do run XDAndroid FRX04 on my Touch Pro (Raphael). I can't send SMS at all. Whenever i try to send SMS, i got a (Message not sent error).
I have navigated for a solution for this, i found one concerning the message center. I entered *#*#4636#*#* on the phone application and typed the message center, but it always gives (update error)
Some others wrote that i have to exchange my SIM card. I didn't try this yet hoping you can help me.

I have the same error, I found that if you enter in APN settings and activate "use only 2G networks" (perhaps you have to enter briefly in configure APN, no need to wait to found them, to activate it) sms go through correctly.

Which service provider? If you are getting an update error, it's possible that your service provider has blocked you from using Android. I think someone was saying that some service providers have disabled this. Wouldn't be a first, I'm sure...

Thanks for your reply. But the (Use only 2G networks) is dimmed.

You will have to go one level further or down and then back up one level to be able to enable or diable 2G/3G

My service provider is Vodafone Egypt. What is going to make me crazy is that my fried have the same model, have the same service provider and i am the one who gave him the XDAndroid and SMS service is working fine on him mobile

So it worked out of box for him? You should try the same with your phone. Put his microSD in your phone and see if it still works. I would also mention a word of caution and have him(or you) make a copy/backup the contents of that microSD just in-case.

You explained it better
The strange thing is that it's never ticked regardless how many times I activate the option. It makes SMS work though, so I think it's just because it makes the phone re-config sms center.
I don't have data plan so not sure if it really works, forcing the use of 2G nets only.

I am afraid to make it malfunction at his device also , he might kill me. Well, i tried to disable the 2G/3G network, but the problem still exist. Any suggestion !!!

You could hand him your microSD since it worked out of box? Or did it?
