I would firstly like to thank everyone here at these Forums ever since my first HTC Touch that I flashed over to MetroPCS several years back these forums have proven of great help... I am once again stumped and need some help.
I have an EVO with Froyo 2.2 , Fresh Evo 3.3.0.1 Rom & Radio Baseband 2.15.00.09.01 and PRI 1.77 I rooted and flashed it over to MetroPCS everything works, talk, text even wifi .... The only problem is the mobile network does not turn on it says - Mobile Network "Turning On" and appears grayed out. I have double checked all my settings both in CDMA Workshop and QPST, and haved tried every trick I have seen in every forum.. I already called MetroPCS and made sure its not a issue with my data plan or my account.... Can somebody please help me fix this issue I don't know what else to do... ???
did you ever find a fix for this? because I'm having the same problem now. I haven't made any changes to the phone since the last time it was working, which was earlier today. Now it says 'turning on' under mobile network and it's grayed out. already tried rebooting the phone - didn't help.
Running the latest rom from htc, rooted using unrevoked - i did that a few days ago.
No data/network connection here and the Sprint site is down too. WTF?

ah ok - i didn't check the sprint site. Sounds like there was nothing wrong with my phone then, must have been something with sprints network.
My 3g connection was backup this morning, again without me making any changes on the phone. So i guess it was some temporary glitch with sprint.
Mobile Internet stuck on "Turning on" on my Evo
Even I have same issue after undating my rooted EVO (with unrevoked) stock rom (OTA 4.0) with 2.15.00.09.01 Base BAND to 3.70.651.1 (OTA 7-ROOTED) with 2.15.00.11.19 Base Band. After this the phone was running OK for 3-4 days but then suddenly the Mobile Network "Turning On" issue cropped up . Then I installed EViO 2.0 series latest rom and for 2 days the problem disappeared. However, it again appeared making me flash MikFroYo 4.5 rom. But to no avail. The Mobile Network is not connecting at all. It is just showing "Turning On" when enabled eiher throught settings tab or from power button. But it can only be closed by power button. The details of my software is as below:
Android Version : 2.2
Base Band Version : 2.15.00.11.19
kernel version : 2.6.32.17-gee557fd [email protected] #15
build number : MikFroYo v4.5
Software number : 3.70.651.1
Browser version : webkit 3.1
PRI version : 1.90_003
Prl Version : 00001
Hardware version : 0004
Hboot - 0.97.0000
Please tell me how to make mobile network (internet) operational again as Iam in India with a measly 1x speed and I would like to use it.
Gentlemen kindly help

I have since figured it out it was related to some QPST settings that had red lines in it and even though i clicked in the text box and it appeared to be taking all the settings i was programming it required for me to click some other button the ctrl i believe in order to get rid of the line and be able to program the settings in correctly. I have since gotten my phone to work perfectly. In my experience any issue you have after putting a new ROM is just because it wasn't properly wiped search these forums their is an all in one wipe or manually use the recovery to wipe everything before putting a new ROM on. Also if any pay attention to the recommended baseband, radio and or kernel for each ROM. Also read each ROM details as some have specific purposes like MetroDroid ROM. I am currently using Myn's Warm Z Two Point Two ROM on my EVO on METRO PCS and it runs better & faster than any other ROM I have flashed so far not to mention the interface is sleek and clean.
Well at least we were able to come out in the green and learned a lesson along the way.

Hi guys.
I had my first Evo stolen a few days ago and just got the replacement yesterday. I was able to root using Simpleroot, and setup recovery. In order to get the phone operational on Sprint, I had to type in ##494711# and enter my phone number and change another setting in that same menu. The internet (3g) works on a "stock" rom I downloaded, however it does not work on Cyanogen 7/22 build.
Wifi and everything else runs perfect, no problems besides this. Anyone know a way to fix this? I tried to search the thread but couldn't find anything.
Try re flashing the ROM i got the same rom and my 3G works perfect make sure you flash the new radio and not just the rom you need the rom plus frf91
2.05.00.06.10 is the radio you need. Your software should be 1.47.651.1 also.

hey everyone i'm new to android and the htc evo. heres my story i got it flashed to metro (talk and text only.) then attempted to get it flashed for mms/internet. i have brought it to like 9 different dealers who flash phones and they say its impossible for my phone to be flashed with a new rom because of some kind of error. now i just noticed they down graded my phone to 2.1 from 2.2 and nothing works no wifi not camera just talk and text and the 3g icon is showing and never did before. i'm really confused have no idea whats going on and i really need help.
also i factory reset my phone and now my ninja root icon is missing.
other info:
firmware: 2.1-update1
baseband: 1.36.00.04.02
anything else you need just ask.
at this point i just want to be back on 2.2 with talk and text and wifi and my camera working...
Does anyone know where the APN file is located? I mean the exact folder structure?
I have looked for it and can not find it. I am looking for it because I can not receive MMS or send MMS - it just acts like it is sending forever or downloading forever.
I have looked EVERYWHERE on these forums for the answer and I must be an idiot - because I can't find any info to help.
Here is what I am currently running....
Android Version: 2.2
Baseband Version: 2.15.00.09.01
Kernel Version: 2.6.32.17-gee557fdhtc-kernelatand18-2 #15
Build Number: Fresh Evo 3.5.0.1 by flipz
Software Number: 3.70.651.1
Browser Version: WebKit 3.1
PRI Version: 1.40_003
PRL Version: 60677
I really like the phone is working with this ROM - and I really don't want to reset it back to the factory settings....
Any info will be greatly appreciated!
try the free program "APN backup and restore"
You can dump your APNs to an xml file, check them out and modify them if necessary, and then reload them back into the phone easily

HTC Evo 4G only receives MMS messages after i first restart it. So every time i get a new MMS i have to restart the phone. I just rooted it and flashed the Energy room. any suggestions, thanks
Well, what ROM are you running and what msg app? Have you taken the simple way out and tried using GO SMS? I'm not a big fan of this app but mostly if the ROMs local msg isn't receiving MMS, this will...

I used GO SMS but its the ROM itself. I checked another website and alot of people were complaining about it. Its the Energy ROM

Ahhh....OK OK....unfortunately I can confirm that I ran Energy as well about a month ago and I too had mms issues then. But that is not a reflection on the current version. Have you tried pulling a msg.apk out of another sense based rom? Try pulling it from Nitrous, I know that mms works on that.

Can't send or receive MMS on Sprint! Help!
I need some help here folks. So I had a lapse in thinking one day and "nearly" acceptance an OTA. I accidently clicked accept and immediately stopped it (shut off my phone etc). Well apparently it downloaded far enough to where the next time I reset my phone it installed it automatically. It didn't even tell me it was installing it just told me my phone had been updated. Now I need help. First here is the info on my phone...
Sprint Evo 4G running Ginger Bread (2.3.5), Kernel - 2.6.35.10-g4b48446. My phone is rooted, but I still have the stock ROM.
So my phone updated the software to the newest version 4.67.651.3. I know at the beginning of this thread there is an alert message about not downloading it (as with any OTA's on a rooted phone), but it did and now I'm here.
So my problem is that now I cannot send or receive MMS. It sits there acting like it's trying to send without ever sending it. Is it possible to revert back to an older software version (assuming this is what broke the MMS in the first place)? Help from any of you would be GREATLY appreciated!
I have the same problem running miui
Flashed Kings alliance rom r6 & only show 1x all the time on notification bar. Updated radios to see if that would fix it. Still no 3g. Updated prl & profile. Still no. Flashed newer version of kings alliance r6.2. Still only show 1x. Wifi works & so does 4g. Any ideas on what to try next?

I wouldn't go on a radio/pri flashing spree BUT that's just me.
Try to flash another ROM such as Sprint Lovers 2.2
(don't forget to wipe factory settings in recovery and do the usual Nandroid if you plan on coming back to Kings Alliance Rom)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=830153
If you don't get 3G on that rom then you properly messed around and flashed an outdated radio or PRI............if that doesn't work then unroot the SOB and take it to the Sprint store, let them deal with it...hahahaha....GOOD LUCK bud!
When you go into settings>About phone>Network...what does it say under Mobile network type?
If it says anything other than CDMA-EvDo rev. A you may have a borked 3G...but you can also try this, it has worked for a lot of people:

Thanks a lot man! That worked for me.
Man, I kept searching the last 2 days but never pulled up that thread for some reason.
Love this forum.
Great news! Believe me, I know how frustrating it is when the 3G/Evdo/1X really does mean 1X! Glad it wasn't hardware related!
Hey guys,
Wondering if you guys can help me out. Not sure if anyone else has had this issue here.
My wife's EVO gets no 3G. We both have EVOs and live in a 3G area. I rooted both phones. I rooted mine a while back before the OTA 2.3 update with Unrevoked, so my hboot is still the 2.10. I rooted my wife's EVO just last week with Revolutionary b/c she installed the OTA 2.3 update.
My wife had been complaining that her phone is slow with data connectivity even before I rooted the phone. Since the closest Sprint repair store is about 30 miles away, I wanted to try and fix her phone to avoid the drive. Plus I like troubleshooting and learning more about Android.
I have used various ROMs on my phone and currently like MikG 2.55. Both our phones are currently running MikG 2.55. Now with this ROM, I noticed that if your phone is not connected to 3G, it will give the 1X icon instead of the 3G icon. My wife's EVO doesnt connect to 3G where as mine does.
I've updated her PRL and Profile through system updates in the settings and still nothing. I did notice that her EVO is using a different radio than mine so i thought maybe falshing her radio might make a difference. Only this is, that I have been researching and a lot of people are saying not to flash radios b/c it can cause problems.
My phone has
Hboot 2.10.0001
PRL version 60681
PRI version 1.90_003
Baseband version (radio) 2.15.00.11.19
ROM MikG 2.55
My wife's phone has
Hboot (pre-root)2.16.0001 (rooted) 6.1xxxx
PRL version 60681
PRI version 2.15_003
Baseband version (radio) 2.15.00.08.08
ROM MikG 2.55
I believe the Hboot versions have no reason why she can't connect to 3G but not sure of the PRI version, radio version. I've also been thinking about flashing the radio/PRL/wimax combo but wanted to get the experts say on it first.
I do not want to mess up her phone b/c it took me a long while to convince her to switch over from her IPhone 3gs (she was having issues with her Iphone). I want her to start loving Android, as I do, over Iphone.
Please help,
Thank you
Try to toggle the airplane mode on and off about 3 times while 3g is on..see if that makes a different perhaps resets it. Can also turn of 3g a few times. I had this before and I am not sure what had happened, but i just messed with the 3g toggle and airplane mode then it started working.
Try to flash the new stock rom in the forum. Wipe the cache and dalvik maybe its just that? Did it ever work after you rooted the device?
I haven't tried the airplane mode trick. I will as soon as I get home.
When I flashed the new ROM I did wipe data/cache and dalvik cache.
When I first rooted her phone I flashed a different ROM (Rainy Day). We still noticed she had real slow data connection but it would show the 3G icon. It probably still shows even if its not in 3G. The Rainy Day ROM was too glitchy (I had it also for a day) so I flashed both our phones to the MikG 2.55 (which I had previously on my phone, very stable ROM). That is when I noticed her phone would stay with the 1X icon.
As soon as I try the airplone mode toggle 3G, I will report back to see if it fixed her problem.
Thanks sup3rn0th1ng
