Hello everyone.
I have a Sprint EVO 4G and it has S-OFF so I flashed it to 2.2 and used Rom Manager to put the stock 2.3.3 rooted deodexed onto it then went to Metro PCS and had them flash it over which they did for $10 then the guy could not get into the NAM setting to put my new phone number ect into the phone. He said usualy all they have to do is 000000 to get into the settings he called the metro techs and they said to reflash it which he did anyway by the end of this he asked me if I knew how to get into the settings which is what brings me here. He refunded my activation and kept the $10 for the flash. I kinow if anyoine can help me it's you guys. Thanks
Adam
OH YEA & P.S. to save another thread should anyone have the answer to this and I get this working on Metro (calls and texts only) can you either direct me to a thread to get the internet 3g and MMS working or give me the steps. Thanks again

I had this happen to me the first time I tried to "Metroflash" my Evo. I went to three different stores thinking it was the operator, not knowing that when I flashed and rooted the evo, metro pcs could not set it up on their Houdini system. I went bare bones via hard reset (stock rom) and voila, metro got it on their system.
I followed this guide by Bloodykiller after it was rooted. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=795182
Again, this is what worked for me. Hope this helps.
Huller!!!
I followed step by step when It came to changing everything to flash the Evo to Metro, well things have changed and I need to change all back to sprint. I am hoping that someone can post a how to on this, I would be truly grateful.
Thank you in advanced!!!
Just a couple of questions, and I'm COMPLETE noob to Android.
The phone is already flashed to Metro PCS, so in order to get everything working on the phone, do I follow these steps?
1. Follow this guide - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...50#post8395950
2. Install MetroDroid 2.2
Now the phone I received already DOES have Metrodroid installed on the phone, can I still follow the provision guide? Or do have to flash back to stock, and then follow the steps above?
I'm sorry to bother you guys, but I want to do what is best for me and what will work.
Also, I saw a video on youtube.com of someone who got 4G working on their EVO while on MetroPcs, is this really possible or fake?
Here's the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_XY9IwWYno
Hello!
I was wondering if someone could provide me with step by step instructions on how to change my htc evo 4g to virgin mobile service.
I have downloaded a few things already :
1. EVO FLASHING TOOLS. rar
2. VM MMS ROMS.rar
3. VM-official-cm-7.2.0-RC1_Patcher.zip
Will I be able to use the data and internet?
But I have NO IDEA what to do with them. Also, I apologize if this is a repost of a forum already stated. I searched and couldn't find any solutions.
Anywho, any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.

Did you root your phone yet? You probably need to start with that so that you can start flashing other images on to your phone. I've never seen those files ( I just started looking because I'm trying to do the same thing ). But a few Google searches wised me up. If you haven't rooted your phone yet, do that first.
Good luck.
OK so here we go I have stock rooted the s3. This is more of a blog or log of what Ive done so far and if anyone has better updated info then chime in.
I am trying to unlock my sprint phone for use on straight talk network. Nothing I have done so far has let me have internet access on the phone.
Im looking for the MSL code to unlock the phone. CDMA workshop did not work It wants me to input the spc to read it lmao.
First I rooted using the chainfire method. http://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-root-the-samsung-galaxy-s-iii-xda-developer-tv/
Then I used Triangle away to make the phone look like it has not been rooted.
Im downloading SDK tools now to follow the instructions in the thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2391165&page=2
I have android version 4.4.2 so I may have to downgrade to 4.1.x and follow the thread to reprogram my MSL then upgrade again.
Any IDEAS?!???!?

I went through this a few months ago. Just call sprint and have your imei# and meid# ready. Tell them you need your msl code because you are going to be traveling overseas. They are now required by law to give it to you although they will not assist with unlocking your phone for a new carrier. Or theres an app that works for some people. Let me know how it went
I tried calling sprint they want the phone number associated with the phone to access account info and I bought phone offline.... no idea what the phone number was.
