Please, I need your help - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys.
I've been a forum lurker for months now, but I find myself in need of some serious help.
I rooted and flashed a couple ROMs today, but I've run into APN problems:
I am no longer able to enter the correct APN settings, namely the MNC number. I am unable to change the MNC number from 103, which it is currently, to 10 (which is what I need).
If I do so, the APN simply disappears, and I'm left with no data connection. Leaving the MNC on 103 doesn't help either.
I've tried reverting back to the untouched RUUs from HTC, which didn't work. I even flashed a dump from a HTC Desire that has everything correctly configured (my Dad's phone, identical in network to mine), but alas my MNC number remains 103.
I am at a loss what to do - please, XDA, help!

where did you get your phone from?
you can always try flashing apns_conf.xml located in the system/etc folder and then go through the setup wizard again
what rom are you on?

Verizon 6900 No internet

I have a verizon 6900 that I updated using NFSFAN's WM6.5 1.00 FINAL ROM and now I cannot get the internet to work. I went back to the factory 6.1 and was unable to even make calls, so I spoke with verizon and got the phone working but they were unable to get the internet working. I flashed the ROM with the WM6.5 1.00 again and ran a couple different provisions and I still cannot get the internet. Can someone please help.
Sorry it keeps asking for username and password.
internet
VZW can tell you the user name and password its something simple like vzw3g or something. If you have that setup correctly you may be in the same boat im in. I can not connect to the internet. I did a hard reset some time back and lost the ability to data connect. I contacted the vzw techies who could not solve the problem, went into the store who could not solve the problem, went back to the "techs" on the phone who could not solve the problem. They all said it was my software which I think is bs. The problem is not my software because my phone tries to connect to their network and I have no known software issues. It has to be on the network end where the network wont recognize my phone. I quit working on the problem because I dont use data right now anyways and was on a pay as you go data plan so it was vzw's financial loss that i can not use data.
This fixed my Verizon Phone

But know I cannot update my radio. This has been an issue since I unlocked my phone. I cannot get the bootloader to load from my 1 GB microSD. I am not sure what to do. XV 6900
I have had this problem for months now.I have tried everything possible. Called vzw i dunno how many time I dunno how many new A-keys I have had.I even tried these settings. Nothing seems to be workn.But who knows. Only way I can get internet on this phone is to manullay put my phone in 1x. which is way slow but it works
I got everything working great now. I ran the .40 unlocker and then flashed back to the factory ROM from HTC. I entered all of the setting back into the phone that I listed above and then flashed it again with the factory ROM. All of this put my phone back to factory. I then re flashed it with the 2.31 and was able to update radio and flash with the 6.5 ROM from SD card in phone.

About APN configurations

Hi to all,
I have following problem with APN configuration: when I flash a new ROM the phone get the APN configuration values from the file system\etc\apns-conf.xml (file that is in the zip used to flash the rom), depending on network operator... Since most of the time this configuration is not corresponding to my data plan (my operator is Vodafone IT and data plan is "mobile internet" using mobile.vodafone.it as APN) I use to flash another zip "Cyanogen_APN-signed.zip" that I found here on xda forum... this zip contains correct APN coerent with my data plan...
This method goes well some time and some time not... (it went well with villain 3.3 and not with behero1.3.1)... Am I missing something?? Every time this method does not work as I aspected I lose 5 euro because I connect to wrong APN... (web.omnitel.it)
Could someone explain me what is wrong in my method??
Thankou!

[Q] What Am I Missing - Adding A New APN to apns.xml

(Hope this is the right area to post, its more leaning towards ARHD ROM in particular but it may turn out ot be Android specific)
Im not 'new' to roms but the whole cooking/recompiling apks is a little past my comfort zone, but still learning Looong time reader, third time poster.
DesireHD, fully rooted s-off etc etc
ARHD with apaches kernal usually.
Ive just transferred to GiffGaff (GG) from Orange which runs on the O2-UK Network, on first boot of ROM HTCsetup asks to select a carrier and lists for me O2 Prepay, O2 Postpay and Tesco (again runs on O2 Network)
I have to select O2 Prepay then eventually reconfigure the APN by deleting the O2 defaults either manually, with APN B&R or using the giffgaffapn tool a fellow GG user wrote.
My goal is to add a APN to the main list so on first boot I can choose 'GiffGaff' as a carrier and have it auto configure the APN so Data is active during the initial setup.
What Ive found out so far:
Post that I found to push me in right direction.
I know CM has GG in its APN list as the two seperate entries (Data and MMS) which work fine and is needed for the San Francisco to work on GG but a single entry for both works fine.
It seems /system/etc/apns-conf.xml is redundent in 2.2.1 base and APNs are read from system/framework/framework-res.apk /res/xml/apns.xml
Adding the APN to /system/etc/apns-conf.xml AFTER initial boot could possibly work but am trying to get it to work on first boot.
I think this is the correct data to add the the list
Code:
<apn carrier="GiffGaff" apn="giffgaff.com" mcc="234" mnc="10" user="giffgaff" password="password" proxy="193.113.200.195" port="8080" server="http://mmsc.mediamessaging.co.uk:8002" mmsc="http://mmsc.mediamessaging.co.uk:8002" mmsproxy="193.113.200.195" mmsport="8080" type=""/>
I can decomplie, edit the xml, recompile then resign but thats where I stumble.
The output apk is mbs smaller then the original and gives bootloops when recompiled into the ROM.
Im obviously missing something here but cant seem to figure out what.

[Q] NO WEB or MMS for my CRICKET HTC EVO 4g

im new to xda developers so sorry if im posting this in the wrong place
but i need help like asap ,
okay so my cousin had owned this evo before me and he had it on his cricket account and it worked perfectly fine for him except MMS
he went to at&t and gave me the phone
so i did a hard reset and cleared the phone ( i heard from somewhere this un does the flash ? correct me if im wrong but i think this is what messed everything up )
but anyways i did the hard reset and took it too cricket and they transferred it over too my line for 15 dollars and now the web and mms doesnt work !
all i can do is talk and text !
can somebody please help me ? im stuck at this point i jus wanaa know if i can dial ##3282# and fix it ? or maybe the app "anycut" can help ?
or do i have to reflash it ? im pretty sure i can reflash it myself but i cant get the DIAG DRIVERS for my evo because the computer i have is "WINDOWS 7 64bit" and i been seeing links around that i can get it too work but everything ive tried just doesnt seem too work for a 64BIT computer ? !
please respond , thanks in advance ?
sage,
i just recently flashed an evo to cricket and found a ton of info over at the cricket user forum (and here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=934417) about apn settings.
these can be done directly through the messaging app without qpst.
they can also be done with the ##DATA#, but you will need your msl (which should be all zeros 000000 if you unlocked it for cricket. here's some stuff from the cricket user forum
MMS
We're attaching the XML file that includes the APN settings in this thread. Open it up with notepad and you should see the following:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='yes' ?>
<apns count="1">
<apn name="CDMA-MMS" numeric="46605" mcc="466" mnc="05" apn="mms" user="your10digit#[email protected]" server="NA" p***word="cricket" proxy="wap.mycricket.com" port="8080" mmsproxy="null" mmsport="null" mmsprotocol="null" mmsc="http://mms.mycricket.com/mycricket/mms.php" type="mms" />
</apns>
Just edit the "your10digit#here" part with your phone number and save this.
Place it on your phone's SDCard under a folder called "apnbackuprestore". Then open the Android App APN Backup and Restore (included in this thread and on the Market) on your Evo. Delete APNs and then restore the Cricket.xml you just modified.
You should have everything working now. Talk, text, MMS, and Internet. There are a few more steps left to enhance the experience. Below is my attempt to fix a step that I left out.

OTHER ALTERNATE METHODS
If you can't get QPST to work try this for data:
On the phone type ##3282# or ##3282 call and hit edit mode and do these settings:
In Data Profile:

I used the mikg 3.11 and got mms running pretty quickly with the settings mentioned. 3g speeds are slow, but that is a matter of finding the right prl (experimenting). in chicago, which i hear is a flashing mess because it is a triband area, or aws, or some nonsense...
I can't get past the first step of flashing :/
My computer is a windows 7 64 bit and every diag driver I download doesnt work ?
I tried to do the apn backup and restore I tried anycut.apk I tried the ##DATA#
I pretty much tried it all ? I can't seem to get 3g at all ?
Thanks a lot for the help tho I appreciate it

There are some drivers posted on this thread. Have you tried those?

I have read on the cricket forums that peeps on 64bit machines have gotten it to work. Let me know if those in the thread work.

Possible To Modify MCC/MNC With Stock Rooted HTC One V?

Okay, a family member of mine purchased a One V and I rooted it, but I kept it stock so it's close to normal. But after all this it had MMS issues which I fixed temporarily with editing the APN's, but here's the issue. In most build.prop's they contain certain lines like gsm.operator.numeric=***** which is the country code and carrier code, this can be bypassed and work on any ROM if you edit APN's but it causes issues with videos if they send you videos.
I downloaded an app to check the MMC and MNC and they are listed as 311/270, the code I need to enter is 310/120, but on the stock ROM there is no way to alter the MMC or MNC as there are no numeric entries in the build.prop, so they are located elsewhere in the ROM, but I cannot find them, obviously an app like MCC and MNC info for US (app) can locate them and know's where the values are, but it doesn't say. So I cannot alter them.
Does anyone here know where to locate the needed file(s) I need to edit to change these values? This is a CDMA phone and not a GSM, So I don't know if that means the possible location would be different on a stock GSM/CDMA One V ROM. Also I have tried going into both PRL settings (##775#) and found nothing, and also EPST edit mode (##3282#) and the only thing in EPST settings is the MCC and MNC, but they are both set at 310/33, not the 310/120 I need, or the 311/270 that the MCC/MNC check app report back. So somewhere within the ROM's files the file that is reporting my SIM Operator Number as 311270 is conflicting with the correct settings.
