You probably didn't put the bw~ driver in your /sdcard root. Also, check wifitether's log to see if any steps were highlighted "red"

I have the .bin file in the folder & location you specified, fwiw I also have checked the forum search for issues with the wifi tether and didn't see anything regarding how i'm having issues.
i figured a new post with what my situation is with having root, flashed recovery and working wifi N would also be unique
Wifi Tether log shows no red log entries
am i supposed to do something in recovery?
I did some reading around and apparently Infrastructure mode isn't available for Incredible yet (which would explain why it won't show up on any of my wifi devices) instead AD Hoc mode is only available, which i didn't test
AD Hoc does work but has anyone gotten infrastructure working on the Incredible yet? if not, thats what my problem is, and i'll be patiently waiting for the update to come through
Edit: I got it working!! Infrastructure mode now shows up on my TP2, going to test other devices later
Yah, As far as I can tell...even with the newest pre-release version from the google code site Infrastructure mode isn't supported on anything running our firmware...I hope it comes soon too, would be much better for supporting other devices.
I am trying to get u2nl to work with autostart on my Evo, but i am getting stuck on this last process, as it is not explained very clearly on the Eris guide what it is i am supposed to do.
I have looked around on the internet, and it seems a lot of people are running into problems too, Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I'm using the autostart.sh file for the Eris on Cricket and it works fine. Just make sure and select either Cricket or Metro depending on your carrier as they are slightly different.

cool, thanks for the huge tip man, so are all the adb instructions the same as the ones in that eris guide??
i am trying to use the adb instructions but i am getting errors, here's a screen shot:
also it was not explained what screen the phone should be in, should i be in the fastboot screen? should i hold down volume and power, and start putting commands in the command prompt when the phone is in that screen? or do i also do volume up and power? or where exactly am i supposed to be on the phone while executing these commands??
also one more question, i still haven't actually gotten my txt or call to work (phone still isn't activated but i remember when i flashed my TP2 i could send and receive sms after i put in all the settings in the EPST menu. i am using PRL 1014. on this one, as of now it's giving me an error:
SMS Error
Cause Code: 97
Error Class: 2
I have very little experience and knowledge of adb but? It says the directory or file your TRYING TO CREATE is already been CREATED. So now the questions are, should it be there or should you just skip that step? delete the folder then run the command again?
I have the apps (not just the internet) working on my evo. Here are some guidelines that you may or may not know already:
1. Make sure you're fully rooted, I don't know if the partial unrevoked method works.
2. Make sure your rom SUPPORTS IPTABLES! The stock evo rom does not I believe. I am using the latest damage control rom. This little clue was hard to find out.
3. You are right in imputing the commands into the terminal. Or you just just download a terminal emulator and run the commands directly into your evo, which is what I did.
4. Even with completing part three of the eris guide, certain apps won't fully work, though most will. All the google apps (like maps and navigation) seem to work except voice to text. And you can log into the apps market, but you can't download, but I believe that's because and android market does not allow app downloads over a 1xrtt data connection, so that's no fault of the evo or even metropcs (my ghetto carrier). youtube, layar, flixster, goggles and all that other good stuff work just fine.
With regard to your specific question, I did too get an error message (I forget what specific one) when I was trying to do part three of the eris guide with a stock rom. I flashed to damage control and went through all the steps without problems. And don't flash a new radio, or else you'll have to reinput all the specific metropcs/cricket settings in a program like qpst.
Btw, shazam is freakin' sweet!
to get all apps working on the evo is a little different. you need special bat. files and certain commands to get everything working including full apps,mms,gps and picking up 3G service. i have mine fully working on cricket
@ theboundless:
Well thanks for all those tips, they are certainly useful.
1. i am fully rooted.
2. did not know that, i do have just the stock rooted rom actually, i didn't want to get a custom rom because apparently they are missing a lot of features. can you recommend that that has everything working and uses htc sense?
- the main reason i ask is because i know good sources for WinMo roms, like ppcgeeks, but i don't know where to get the best android roms. do they have them all here at xda? or is there another site that all the devs use to post their roms?
3. ok i kinda get that, but i am not familiar with linux, so i don't know if the commands are going trough or not. it just seemed like the commands where echoing, i would love to see an actual screenshot of what a successful execution of this process looks like.
4. hmm sounds like you don't have 3g working yet huh?? well i've had my 3g working on cricket on my HTC TP2, i'm pretty sure i'll be able to get it working on this one, i hope.
@ Dream_7:
hey thanks for the info, sounds like the .bat's do an internal proxy re-routing configuration somehow, and that's pretty much what the phone needs, just like how i used proxycap on windows mobile to get my email and everything working.
well that's awesome that you got it working, would you mind helping me out here by letting me know where i can acquire these bats from, and how i would go about applying these procedures to my phone?
Hey kenshin
I do have "3g" working, tho the metropcs cdma network is pretty slow, the data connection type they use down here in cali is the 1xrtt cdma, which is lovingly referred to by many as "2.5g" Its the best metropcs had to offer down here until 4g time.
I flashed the latest damage control rom and it does support iptables. I'm not sure about others but my guess is any modded rom would.
As for the terminal commands, like I said you could just input them directly into your evo if you download a terminal emulator from the market. There are a lot of them, and out seems like any are fine.
And yes I have gps working.

nice, btw i think i just found out i don't have full root, i thought i had full root and NAND access, but it doesn't seem so...
i did this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=720565
and i thought it was an upgrade of this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=706411
so i don't know where to go from here since i've already done one thing... i just need the nand and full root, but i don't know which method to go for since i'm kinda halfway, don't know which one is the best pickup road
I haven't tried any of those 3-click type root methods, I did the old-school full root:
//forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=123714
Just add the http at the beginning
The directions are explained very well, I just followed them line by line. It might look like a lot, but you only have to do it once. I do believe the autostart program needs the full root access, but don't quote me on that.
After you fully root and nand backup, you can flash a new rom compatible with iptables. Just a reminder, don't flash a new radio or else you'll probably have to reinstall all your metropcs/cricket phone settings.
just wanna let everyone know that i have fully flashed the CDMA HTC Desire to cricket with everything working, sending/recieving mms, and all apps access internet fine, using tokens flash, and conaps edited mms apk.
i have not seen ANY posts ANYWHERE that said if this phone was even able to be flashed, so i figured i would let everyone know it is, also i am running the latest cyanogenMod rom
This great news! I was considering buying a HTC Desire and flashing over to cricket since I'm able to get it for a good price.
Can you explain how you flashed it?? and what carrier was under the HTC desire?
pm'd you, if i didnt put it clear enough(i didnt go to much into detail cause i figure you know how to flash roms/rooting) i will break it down alittle more if needed. and the phone originally was nex-techwireless.
I just bought a used Desire from eBay with the intention of flashing it to Cricket. Could you PM me the instructions as well? It would be most appreciated.

Well I managed to root and flash a new rom, but I'm still having trouble to how to flash it over to cricket.
you must have a sense rom flashed in order for the diag mode to work. if you already flashed another rom flash one of these as a temp, and once the settings have been made you are free to flash another rom.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=947481
first root the device with unrevoked, once its rooted download qpst(i use build 366)
now after thats download and installed you need to download the htc diag drivers and put your phone into diag mode(its either ##diag, ##diag#,##diag*... it starts with 2 # followed by diag just not sure of the last symbol) once its in diag mode plug it in and the computer will instal drivers, wait for that to finish then go to device manager and manually update the htc drivers using the download htc diag drivers. after that is all done you must now open qpst configuration and click ports, then click add new port and add anything you see about your phone. now once thats done you need to click start clients and select service programming. and set all settings like in these pics http://s798.photobucket.com/albums/yy266/darkmage1991/ and dont forget to write a cricket prl i suggest this one http://www.4shared.com/file/we3VLGo_/42900.html (its a cricket sprint hybrid), once those are set push write to phone.
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=stable&device=bravoc get the newest cyanogenmod build (7.0.3 atm) dont flash it until you get the qpst settings set in a sense rom. now download the cricket v10 here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7261108&postcount=1 and flash it.
now download apn backup & restore, exfile explorer, and autostart off the market using wifi.
open your voice dialer and say "open proxy settings" once thats opened type in "wap.mycricket.com" and "8080" for the port #
now open apn back & restore and restore these apn's http://www.4shared.com/document/h5A_Izso/apns.html
Now we get to the part where we get MMS working, do this stuff you must open exfile explorer and make sure you mount as rewritable
Delete the mms.apk located in system/app
Drop the modifed mms.apk into system/app
Delete the telephony.db file located in data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases
Drop the modified telephony.db in data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases (Be sure to rename the telephony.db file you downloaded back to telephony.db before dropping it back into data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases)
get the modifed mms and telephony here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=968582
ok i think i got everything, if something is not working let me know i may have missed a step. and remember to thank all the people who created all those files for there hard work.
i know it seems like a lot of work but it really isnt, i redo my flash about every 5-10 days cause i cant decide what roms i like lol, and it only takes about a min to get it flashed again but you do not have to redo the qpst part only the downloading of autostart, ex, apn etc, and getting mms going
if you guys are like me and flash alot of roms, you will find some dont let mms to work, and other dont alow internet for apps to work(but internet for the stock browser will, this is due to iptables some dont support it) its just trial and error =P
and i suggest going over to 2fast4u.com and check out his AWESOME cdma roms for the desire his work is awesome and so far all his roms work fully on cricket
I have success of getting my 3G working .
However, i can't make calls lol.
And to add, The mms fix link is broken when i try to download: telephony.db.zip. can u post a different link for it?
Do you have to activate it to recieve calls or something?
(edit): i cant extract telephony.db.zip. Do i take the whole file and drop it? or do i extract it?
no dont extract it rename it to telephony.db (remove .zip)
My wish came true!!
Goood News, it works!!
I can recieve calls and text and web(even thought its kinda slow at the moment).
Everything is correct from the tutorial, its just i had to call cricket to register the HTC desire under my cricket account. Ugh... It was a long process but i got it .
No activation, it worked right after they register my MEID thiny from the back of my phone .
Sooo yeah, how can I speed up my 3G? Its slower than my Huawei ascend's 3G. :/
I still cant get MMS working -_-.
o wait, its cause your ascend was on the "android" plan paying 55 a month but flashed phones are only alowed to be on the 45 a month plan, and that plan requires the use of the proxy (wap.mycricket.com) and the proxy has a speed limit on it unlike the android plan.
and if someone actually let you stay on the 55 a month with the flashed phone, then that means internet shouldnt be working at all due to you installing autostart, and setting the proxy settings. something you can try is open your voice dialer and say "open proxy settings" and erase the info and see if the internet even works, if it works what uninstall autostart.
and mms requires the modified mms app, telephony.db, and the apn's to be set using apn backup and restore, if you did do all that redo it. use exfile explorer and go into /system/app and delete the mms.apk and paste the modified one in there, after that click and hold on it and go down to permissions and set it like this(the x's put a checkmark in leave the o's empty)
xxo (user)
xoo (group)
xoo (other
now do the same with the telephony.db, then open apn backup&restore and delete apn's then click restore and use the apn file linked.
Need Help
Hi guys, sorry to interrupt.
I've been on the net for quite some time now searching for a solution to my HTC Desire problem but this is the first time I come across people who seem to know what they're talking about!!
My HTC Desire was working fine for almost 5 months ( I bought it from a close friend who brought it from Romania). the phone is already rooted or flashed or what ever you call that, I get a Joker holding a card on which is written S-OFF and around the Joker is Written "Why so serious" when I turn on my phone (if that helps you know what ROM or Root the phone is equipped with...)
The thing is few weekes ago, the phone began turning off by itself, just like that and I had troubles rebooting it ( sometime it just keeps on rebooting all over again uncessefully, so i had to get the battery out, wait few minutes before hitting the power button again). the Camera and the Camcorder stopped working suddenly and the phone starts rebooting every 10 minutes max.
I tried to root it again with unreviked 3, it was working pretty fine until the program tried to rebbot my phone and the Mothef....r wouldn't reboot (original problem) so communication was lost and rebbot was uncessfull.
I installed the latest version of HTC sync from HTC web site, but it wouldn't detect my phone !!!!
So now, I wanna flash the existing ROM with THE ORIGINAL one, the HTC official one as if I just bought the phone from a store. Is it the Solution for my problem?? and if it is can you please explain to me what to do exactely in the process ( if you can explain the terms you use "cricket" "build 366"...)
I know it's a lot to ask but I would be greatfull if you could help.
Thanks.
Ill try it out. I was using my stock 2.2 froyo with sense instead of the cyanmod since i like the interface better. I was sending text through the sense rom but cant send any mms apparently.
Another problem that i came across cyanmod's latest rom is that it has no market place -_-'.
No luck :/.
Is there a rom where I can have working MMS? lol
As for the telephony file. I just realize I had to create all those directories for me to put the file in, could that be part of the reason why?
i believe i had to create it also the file goes in this directory /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db , as for working mms rom, cyanogen 7.0.3 works fine, i think you have something not set or wrong.
and for the other guy i would reroot and flash a cyanogenmod rom and see how it is. and make sure you choose the correct rom(gsm is for desire's with a sim card, cdma is for desires without a sim)
Thanks for the guide, while I won't be using it myself, I'm sure someone will. I'm trying to make a CDMA Guide thread so I might use it and link to it.
you dont need worry bout it , this guide is only for people that are wanting to flash the phone carrier to cricket from uscc or another carrier. so not much people need this info, and the people that do need it can find it with the search button like the last people have done.
USC Revert, HBOOT 1.06, and Carrier Text on Lock Screen
DM, thanks for all your work on this. Would you happen to have a .qpst settings file for US Cellular should someone decide to revert it back? Or perhaps a .qpst settings file for Cricket that just needs the DN changed where appropriate as indicated in your screenshots? That would be a great addition to this thread.
Second, I would like to comment here on how rooting via unrevoked did no work for me due to my phone having HBOOT 1.06. I had register for the beta for this program: revolutionary.io
That unlocked the bootloader for me an installed CW Recovery.
Third, I have been trying to get rid of the US Cellular on the lockscreen in CM 7.1 with no luck. Any suggestions? Carrier Name app: fail. CCName: has become deprecated. SQLite edit: custom_lock... record not in secure table as indicated on this thread: forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/22493-bring-back-settings-location-security-show-custom-message
Finally, I would like to readdress the possibility of a phone reprogrammed for cricket not using the proxy. Has anyone tried this recently?
I think changing the value in build.prop is all.
Need help getting 3G data working
Okay, I was flashing this phone for my father-in-law for a Christmas gift, so I was finally able to get the ESN updated with Cricket to activate the phone. Phone calls work, SMS works, but 3G does not and neither does MMS.
3G is the only service that I am concerned with fixing at the moment, so I was wondering if anyone has some input on how I can troubleshoot the problem. I noticed that the Cricket guy put him on the $55 Android plan; is this part of the problem? Do I just need to not use Autostart and remove the proxy? Do I need different APN's than those provided?
So, I've been sick all weekend. What better way to spend a few hours indoors then to try out a fresh new ROM?
Last night I flashed from the old, worn out, seemingly no longer updated SkyRaider Sense (with Chad's Incredikernel) to what had been my old standby, CM which I believe came with it's own kernel. I am on XP. While native tether worked on SkyRaider, I couldn't get it working on CM7.1 which is a deal-breaker for me as I tether often (and though it's a good backup plan wireless tether SUCKS! soo slow). After trying to figure it out for a few hours, I came to the conclusion (wrong as it may be) that CM7 could not support wired tether, a problem that is isolated to that ROM.
Time for another flash. This morning I did some research and landed on MIUI and a new Incredikernel. I like this ROM but still no wired tether. Here's what happens:
1 Plug in USB
2 Menu>Settings>System>Tethering and Portable Hotspot>USB Tether ON
3 New Hardware Wizard Runs - doesn't matter though, I've downloaded no less than 10 drivers that are supposed to fix this and similar problems (tetherxp.inf, Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device, HTCSync, VZAccess, etc). Automatic install, let windows search, manually choose file - honey badger don't care.
4 Device Manager shows "RNDIS" Under "Other Devices" Anything I do - "The hardware was not installed because Windows could not find the necessary software."
5 A single tear rolls down my face.
Though this MAY be an easy fix, I have searched everywhere and cannot find the info I need. Feel free to post any link to solved posts concerning this, though I feel I've tried everything readily available.
Does Chad's new kernel support RNDIS? Is there a kernel that does? Can someone write one?
Is there a different driver that I am supposed to be using?
I don't want to go back to my nandroid backup.
Please bring NyQuil, thanks in advance,

PS Yes, today I named my phone Honey Badger. 'Cause he's a bad*ss... but he doesn't give a sh*t.

I've had the similar RNDIS issue before. What fixed the issue for me was installing the modified usb drivers from the unrevoked website. The thing is Windows would not install the drivers running normally. I had to boot the PC into safe mode, then I booted my phone in to Hboot then plugged it in to the PC and the drivers installed successfully. Give that a shot maybe it'll work for you..
Download this and unzip it then go to ADB , DRIVERS, HTC Modem Driver. The driver you require should be in there.
http://dinc.does-it.net/ADB/ADB-Fastboot-USB-Drivers_v4_(x86)(x64).zip
Thank you both, I hadn't tried installing in safe mode WHILE in HBOOT... however, it did not work. I tried both sets of drivers while in safe mode and HBOOT, then just in safe mode, then just in HBOOT.
Any other ideas? Questions?
Thanks
Any other ideas? Anyone else?
"bump" is too short of a message
Chad's incredikernel appears to support RNDIS. I'm looking to add to mine (gingertiny-v2) but I can't get it to build so far.
Still unsolved, is anyone out there good enough to solve this RNDIS driver riddle? Please, give it another go!
Thanks in advance.

So I had my usb charging port detach from the board on my phone. I got a new one, (well used but new to me) and it was flashed to VERIZON but unrooted, bootloader locked, and s-on. On my computer at home i couldn't get the phone to communicate with the computer using windows 7 64 bit. I had flashed and rooted the old phone so I'm not exsactly new to this. For some weird reason I could not get the NEW phone to communicate with the computer with the same drivers from my old phone. I went to a different computer and the drivers loaded fine. however upon flashing the configuration file from my old phone, (a configuration file obtained off this forum, the qpst cricket configuration file) to the new phone using QPST the phone did not recive ANY service (cricket or verizon). I have no bars at all. upon reading the phone through QPST all the settings took to the phone but theres no service or 3g. After several attempts to load the configuration file to the phone at one point i had 2 bars light up briefly indicating that there was service then disappear and cant get service.
Would using linux to flash the phone help? I couldn't find anything on google or the search bar on here on how to use linux to flash the phone to cricket.
Only possible thing I can think of on why I cant get any service to this phone is i have yet to deactivate the old phone. is it possible cricket is blocking any service to this phone because the MIN is already registered to my old phone?
I know this post is kind of confusing so please let me know if theres any way I can clairify it.
Well using qpst on linux is not very easy. Windows is your best bet. Also to get full service cricket must change your service to your new phones esn. Or you have to clone the esn which xda does not allow us to talk about on their fourm due to legal reasons.
Now if you have everything set correctly you should be able to get data to work but sms, mms, and cell service is all linked to esn. If you are getting now bars I am willing to bet your prl needs to be changed.
I have flashed several Og evos and 3d evos. Along with doing the unmentionable (cloning). Check your messages I will send you a pm with some information on flashing to cricket.

I need to rephrase my statment. The problem isn't not getting service to the phone the problem is not getting ANY SIGNAL at all. and im using the qpst settings for cricket off this forum. But i may have found out the problem. I looks like the phone may have been updated, i just saw some options on the phone my old one did not have. Sprint optimizer plus the roaming settings were set to sprint only. BTW cricket doesn't care if a phones ESN is clean or not.
which rom are you using? did you change the prl when you flashed over to cricket? did you change the msl code? you actually dont need a computer at all to flash the phone. on any of the stock rooted roms yo ucan change the needed settings right from the phone itself using the dialer codes. ##data# #, #7786#, ##000000#, etc etc.

Stock Rom.
Yes I did can't remember off the top of my head which prl.
Not sure what the msl code is, if its the same as the MIN that I called cricket for I used the same one as my old phone, should that be different with different phones? (min number)
I did not know that about flashing using only the phone. I'm not sure what is search for, to find that tutorial so if you'd be so kind to link me to one or write a quick step by step for that is be super grateful as Windows 7 (64bit) decided to not have the drivers work anymore from when I flashed my old phone. I've read everything on installing the drivers and tried many different versions of drivers including ones off here. I've tried reinstalling Windows multipul times. I tried using Linux (mint) and virtual machine (xp) but can't get Linux to communicate with the phone. And after using a friends computer and getting the drivers working with win 7 I loaded my old config file for qpst, the config file for qpst for cricket off here, and tweaking different settings, no signal and no 3g.
I've been working on this for several days and am getting tired of having a palm computer that only works on WiFi, so as said, a link for flashing using the phone only or you taking time to write one up, (it doesn't have to be pretty) would have me owing you BIG TIME.
Something else I've noticed on my, "new" used phone is that it runs significantly slower than my old one did. Hitting home key with no widgets running can cause the phone to take a good 5 seconds to load. Hitting the app drawer can take also a good 5 seconds to load all the apps.
BTW ##7786# didn't seem to do anything but I think I edited ##000000# correctly putting my MIN in both fields....unless there's supposed to be a 1 in the begining. Not sure what the data settings are supposed to be.

Yes I did can't remember off the top of my head which prl.
Not sure what the msl code is, if its the same as the MIN that I called cricket for I used the same one as my old phone, should that be different with different phones? (min number)
I did not know that about flashing using only the phone. I'm not sure what is search for, to find that tutorial so if you'd be so kind to link me to one or write a quick step by step for that is be super grateful as Windows 7 (64bit) decided to not have the drivers work anymore from when I flashed my old phone. I've read everything on installing the drivers and tried many different versions of drivers including ones off here. I've tried reinstalling Windows multipul times.

yeah sorry that code is supposed to be ##786#
some of the other codes you might want o use to confirm that your settings are correct are
##786# - EPST - Status Menu
##3282# - EPST - Data Programming Menu (User Name, Advanced, Restore, Enable HFA, DSA Server, MMSC URL)
##3424# - Diagnostic - Connect to phone in diag mode (im sure you already know that one)
##72786# - changes DSA back to Factory
*#*#4636#*#* - Phone Information - "Phone information, Battery information, Battery history, Useage statistics, Wifi information"
thats all i can remember at the moment.

*#*#4636#*#* if this can be edited this might be able to be fixed in this menu however upon dialing this the number cleared like it was about to do something but it didn't do anything. was this the correct code?
The code is correct.
Now here is a very handy code but it does not work with every rom. ##775# it allows you to change prls. You will need to know the msl code and if you are on a rooted rom you can use msl reader from the market. You will also need to download cricket prls and put them on your SDcard.
