I know this thread is repeated here and there but I am posting here because I do not feel that any of those properly describe how to do it. I tried this trick off and on several times without success and finally just got it to work today using the steps below.
FYI - I have root access and have not tested this without root. Also, I am running SkyRaider's Sense ROM.
1. Dial ##778
1.A If dialing ##778 does not work (like me) then create a new contact whose phone number is ##778 and then call that contact.
2. Choose Edit Mode - the password is 000000 - six zero's.
3. Go to 'Security'
4. Choose S.IP DUN User name
5. Change the value from yourvzwnumber at dun dot vzw3g dot com to yourvzwnumber at vzw3g dot com
6. Press the menu button and select Commit Modifications.
7. Let the phone reboot itself.
8. One the phone has rebooted itself repeat steps 1 and 2.
9. Now that you are back in edit mode choose M.IP Default Profile
10. Change the value from yourvzwnumber at dun dot vzw3g dot com to yourvzwnumber at vzw3g dot com
11. Press the menu button and select Commit Modifications.
12. Let the phone reboot itself.
Now you should be able to use the 3G Mobile Hotspot.

Got my new Vario2 (Hermes yesterday) Straight backonto the forum after a long departure and instantly started playing with Mobile6 thanks to all the fantastic programmers on here. Only issue was having to reload al the gprs and mms data each time. After a long search on the tmobile site I found the following instructions for the UK network.
If anyone with the know how wishes to make a cab that can be installed easily each time I re-flash that would be highly appreciated and I'm sure some others will find it of use too.
Thank you in advance to any takers

PLEASE search the forums, there is a program in progress (very nearly finished) which will apply the settings for ANY network. You will find the thread here.
ive lost a weekend messing around with these different roms and although they look and run realy nice, untill one of you genius's make a rom for the tmobile mda mail im going to have to go back to my [email protected] tmobile 6.0 rom.
issues with email trying to use wifi, when these phones have no wifi!
issues with keypad mapping
and even after messing with settings and trying various cab files still no mms working.
there must be a uk guru out there??
Which ROMS have you tried?
I do not think I am understanding what you are saying. The T-mobile Dash/Excalibur has wifi, and wifi works in all of the ROMS i have tried including the stock t-mobile one.
You may have to configure some options in regard to internet/data and mms. Have you done any configuration under the Settings -> Connections -> GPRS menu? Each time you flash your phone, you have to reconfigure these settings.
Anyhow, I am not sure what you mean by the "tmobile mda mail." If this is a completely different device then the T-mobile Dash/Excalibur, then you have posted in the wrong forum; and I am surprised any of the ROMs on this forum even installed in the first place!
ive tried kavana 080307 and 080308.
tmobile mda mail has NO wifi! its like the dash in every way except this. tmobile uk must be tight wads.
subsequently email tries with gprs for a few seconds then goes to try wifi (get double arrow symbol in top right) then unsupprisingly no email.
i have configured gprs and internet explorer works (quite well infact).
http://www.manuals.t-mobile.co.uk/manual.asp?manualid=1866
That is bizzare. Is it possible to cook a ROM without wifi drivers? Sombody in the 6.1 thread said that they got their wing to work with it, perhaps they just dont use it for e-mail then. Do any of the other roms work with email? It would be a shame to have to downgrade to the stock tmobile ROM.
tell me about it, i can live without mms but not without email

Hi
I experienced a similar problem with my Diamond I purchased on the weekend. It was a Telstra NextG model that was supposedly unlocked and able to work on all networks.
It worked with my Optus SIM as a phone but I couldn't get any Internet connectivity.
I ended up flashing it to a cooked ROM which auto-detected the Optus SIM on first boot and configured itself automatically. Internet is now working without problem.
FYI I'm now using "Dia Druitt v05" ROM and am very happy with it. Original ROM version was 1.38.
Battery life is not great but I have just changed the radio from .06 to .bs14 and will see if that makes any difference.
Cheers
Loki

HI Loki
Can you explain how you did this by Dia Druitt v05 ROM...I have the same problem...I can call and SMS but now internet activity / MMS...dont know what to change on the phone...thanks for your help
You should be able to download the optus/vodafone rom from HTC using the Telstra Next G diamond serial without any issues.
Otherwise, here are the steps to manually input them:
For Internet:
1. Tap on the Start button.
2. Tap on Settings.
3. Tap on Connections.
4. Tap on the Connections Icon.
5. Tap on Add a new modem connection under My Work Network.
6. Enter Optus WEB in the Enter a name for the connection field.
7. Select Cellular Line (GPRS) in the drop down list of Select a modem.
8. Tap Next.
9. Enter internet in the Access point name field.
10. Tap Next.
11. Enter in the User name field or otherwise leave it blank.
12. Enter in the Password field or otherwise leave it blank.
13. Tap Advanced.
14. Select Use server-assigned IP address.
15. Tap OK.
16. Tap Finish.
for some pdas it is compulsary to set proxy for internet connetion if so in step 9 instead of "internet" put "wap.optus.net.au" and for proxy setting put "202.139.83.152" and port "8070".
For MMS:
1. Tap on the Start button.
2. Tap on Settings.
3. Tap on Connections.
4. Tap on the Connections icon.
5. Under My ISP, tap on Add a new modem connection.
6. Enter Optus MMS in the Enter a name for the connection field.
7. Select Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G) in the drop down list of Select a modem.
8. Tap on Next.
9. Enter mms in the Access point name field. Tap on Next.
10. Enter in the User name field.
11. Enter in the Password field.
12. Tap Advanced.
13. Select Use server-assigned IP address. Tap OK.
14. Tap Finish.
15. Tap OK.
16. Tap on Settings.
17. Tap on Messaging.
18. Tap on Menu which is located at the bottom right corner.
19. Tap on MMS Configuration.
20. Under Servers, tap on New.
21. Enter Optus MMS in the Server name field.
22. Enter 61.88.190.10 in the Gateway field.
23. Enter 9201 or Permanent, non-secure in the Port number field.
24. Enter http://mmsc.optus.com.au:8002 in the Server Address field.
25. Select My ISP in the Connect via drop down selection.
26. Select WAP 2.0 in the WAP Version drop down selection.
27. Tap on OK.
28. Tap on Set As Default.
29. Tap OK.
If setting above doesnt work change the port address on step 23 to "8070" then try again.
PS. I just did a search on google for "Optus MMS settings" and copied and paste those instructions.
Optus Rom Update
I've got the same problem. My Touch Diamond is from Telstra, but I'm with Optus. I can send/recieve sms, but not mms.
Can someone post up the latest rom for Optus users? I can'd download it from the HTC website as the serial number on the phone will only download the Telstra one.
Hey guys, I'm really sorry to bring this up again (after all this time) but I'm having issues getting the optus mms to work and I can't for the life of my work out why. I'd tried using all the suggested settings and it still refuses to work (the mobile internet is and has been working flawlessly for some time now).
I was just wondering if any of you guys actually managed to get the mms working or if you all just ended up flashing with a cooked rom.
Hi folksi flashed energy jan 11 rom succesfully on first try then noticed no voicemail app or notification funtioning called sprint support they made me enter # codes ...still no voicemail and NOW no data connection(no 3g) ony wifi
please help me folks i wiped everything using recovery should i also format sd?
karmakid
Most roms don't come with a voicemail app.
If you have no 3g, that's a separate problem. Try updating PRL and Profile, if that doesnt work, call sprint and have then reprovision the phone. It will basically re-activate it. Don't mention that you are rooted or running a custom rom.
I may be mistaken, but I've seen people here on xda mention that you should be unrooted to activate the phone. I would at least flash a ROM that allows EPST and updating of the profile. Again, I'm no authority.
I'm guessing that they made you do a hands-free provisioning. Let's try this.
Look up MiseryInMotion's Barebones, thread. Find the download link in the OP for the odex one and download. Don't extract or anything
When the download is finished, mount as MS again. Transfer to your phone.
Transfer done? Unmount and navigate to the Wipe menu.
Wipe everything except for SD card. Twice. Believe me. Do it every time you flash a ROM.
Navigate to "Flash zip from sdcard" and find the Barebones .zip. Select with power button.
You are now flashing your first custom ROM, congratulations!
Let it sit there until it finishes. Then get back to the main menu and "Reboot system now".
Let your phone sit for a couple minutes. Skip sign-in. Reboot.
First, go to Settings - System Updates - and update PRL.Once that finishes, reboot.
Go to Market and get MSL Reader. Open the app. If it asks for "Superuser Privileges" then accept. It will tell you a 6-digit code. This code is unique to your phone. Write it down, but you can always get it again.
Go to Phone (Dial ##3282#, Choose edit mode) and enter your MSL code
select Data Profile
Hit the menu button and choose restore.
Just sit there, your phone should reboot. If it doesn't, then hold the power button and reboot.
Your phone should do "Hands-Free Provision". Once it says your phone has been provisioned, hit "Okay".
Once it starts to check for PRL update, hit cancel.
Turn on 4G, give it time to turn on (it doesn't need to connect)
Go to Phone (Dial ##3282#, Choose edit mode) and enter your MSL code. Select Advanced, scroll down to RTSP Proxy Port and HTTP PD Proxy Port. Click on them, set them to 0 (zero).
Set RTSP Proxy Address and HTTP PD Proxy Address to 0.0.0.0
Go back to the main menu of EPST and select Wimax
Find EntryRX and click on it
Change value from -89 to -110. Hit "Okay"
Hit the menu button and "Commit Changes" or "Commit Modifications". Your phone will reboot.
Go to Settings - System Updates - and Update Profile.
Once it finishes, reboot

Where I can get this app "Network"?
Some of those steps are placebo, and unnecessary. That will only get you 1x internet, and dependent on your location you may/may never get 3g to work they've been blocking off more cities from flashed phones from getting 3g..
