[G] Guide to get Cricket MMS Working - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok heres what I do to get MMS working on my Wifes Incredible​
$45 plan!!
Make sure to make a backup before trying this just in case you cant get it to work you will have a fall back.
Download CricketV10 Edify and place it on the root of your SDCARD.
Download APN Backup & Restore from the market and backup your current APN's before you flash.
Flash any ROM you want and before leaving CWM flash the CricketV10 you downloaded earlier.
Once booted up into the new ROM download Autostart root from the Market (Wifi)
Download APN Backup & Restore from the Market (Wifi)
Download APN Manager (Wifi)
Now open up Apn Backup & Restore and delete current APN's and then click Restore Apn's and choose the ones you backed up earlier.
Reboot your phone and grant Autostart root superuser permission.
Open up APN Manger and click APN list and then choose CDMA-MMS.
If you dont have good apn's download the attached and replace the X's with your 10-digit number. (Rename from 45Plan.xml.txt to 45Plan.xml)
Now you should have working WEB and MMS.

I got it working on the Gingerbread leak and Skyraider 4.2! I tried MIUI but I couldn't get MMS to work with that one, got everything else though.
This will help me out a lot! Thanks so much!

That's awesome! I haven't tried an MIUI rom. Maybe I can convince her to let me flash that ROM and work on the MMS issue.

I really don't care for that MIUI ROM anyway but I just wanted to try it and see if I could get it fully functional just for kicks. Thanks a lot.

I have tried a few ROM's in the past and a few recently, but I like the stock ROM's the best. They are always the most stable and everything works just fine usually.
There have been some ROM's here and there that I really liked but I always found a fatal flaw that I just couldn't deal with. I'm really looking forward to that official Gingerbread to get here!

I agree. My wife ended up wanting her phone back on Skyraider Athena 1.2. She likes the look and stability of it.

I have tried several ROM's and this method works really well. I just installed Magnolia ROM and so far I like it the best out of all of them. Thanks again!

How? Was it just a fluke that it didn't work for me the first time? Oh and by the way, I don't know if you knew this but, you can uninstall APN Backup and Restore and APN Manager. Everything will still work just fine.

That's really odd because I followed directions and whenever I would flash the MikG 2.4.1 ROM with the cricketedify it wouldn't even boot up, while without it flashed it would boot up just fine.. Any ideas?

I havent tried that ROM. Did you try letting it boot once and then flash it? If that doesnt work I can give you an alternate method to get it working.

There were a couple ROM's that I had to boot up first, go back into recovery and then install the edify script or else it would loop.

One Click root will not install, in need of assistance

Greetings, I have this dilemma. My friend has the Epic 4g which was running froyo 2.2.1 I believe. It also had one click root 2.5 installed but still running on the stock firmware. She asked me to unroot it so she could update to froyo 2.3.5.
She backed up all her information using titanium backup. After updating to 2.3.5 she attempted to restore all of her data but titanium backup said it needed to be rooted in order to restorethe data. I attempted to install the latest one click root but I keep getting this message about adb not working and to try again. I apologize I do not have the device in front of me to tell you exactly what was said. I will attempt to install it later on today. I just seeking advice on any other methods to install one click root?
I'm not for sure the one click root works with 2.3.5 to be honest with u but search the forum for the newest clockworkmod. Should be 5 something and its legit for it... anyone else to chime in and correct me go for it

One click roots do not work on Gingerbread. It would have been easier to flash a GB prerooted ROM while still on Froyo like this one:

Now that she did the OTA you will need to follow this:

Well it looks like my phone is g2g. I updated cwm, the modem, and applied that GPS fix. All the bugs I had with froyo appear to be gone and my phone is working like I think it should have when I first bought it. But I guess that's what you get for going with bleeding edge hardware. Now Ill just what for that cyanogenmod to leave the alpha stages and research some of the other roms. (Or pretend that ICS comes out for the epic haha).
I wonder if sprint will release another update to fix the GPS and any other bugs that are floating around...

No, because the average Epic user on the street thinks their phone works great. I know several. Only us extreme users notice the bugs.

Do not flash unstable roms. I usually wait for official stable roms and making a nand backup before doing anything.

If you want to use the skyrocket port use DARKSIDE SUPER WIPE! I was having the same problem then i started from scratch, did the super wipe, installed the skyrocket rom and it runs perfect for me.

Note for future: use the backup feature in recover before flashing things you aren't sure of.
The backup in recovery is referred to as a nandroid if you didn't know already, it will always bring you back to exactly how your phone previously was. This way you won't have to ever ODIN to stock.

help with update to LI3 without losing Google now for iCS

im stock rooted on lg8. I am looking to update to LI3 and i have found several ways to that. However i'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions on a way I can update without affecting "google now for ICS". I saw an "all-in-one" download of baseband/radios etc...but the thread said something like "if i have and altered .apk's that it wouldn't work". In short i'm looking to be stock rooted on li3 without losing google now. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Boot into cwm or twrp and make a backup of your current Rom, then wipe only cache/dalvik cache and flash the Ll3 on top of your current Rom....if it works great if not reload your backup and hope someone has a better suggestion

Lock up and restart alot?

anyone else having this prob. sometimes i will use a app and the screen will go black and unresponsive i can still turn the screen on and off wit the power button but it eventually restarts however it does the startup animations but does not make the sounds. any fix?
some history:
tooks some time but decided to root, once rooted the factory os would not boot. so i did the restore to factory flash with counter reset uploaded by a fellow member of xda and then did the flash to root.
now i have this prob.
What Rom did you flash to? Stock or something else? Also, Root method? Odin CVM, Flash root zip? just trying to see if there's anything that sounds odd or off other then the issue you described. I rooted with CVM Flash (odin) and zip root method.. Flashed The People's rom, No resets here.

I have seen this a few times recently. I did not have that happen when I read on ICS. It only happened after I updated to lj7.
It is interesting to note that the phone appears to restart and recover but when I look at the uptime for android I see that it was not a full reboot.

See my latest post. I ran this on my OG Epic.. running it now. LOVE IT.
I've been encountering this lately also. I thought maybe it was just my phone. My back button becomes unresponsive sometimes as well. Maybe I'll do a full wipe and reflash a rom.
maybe sumthin up with super user? i noticed that when i open up flip board it says shell granted super user a **** load of times and wont let me do anything in flipboard.

[Q] VZ rom's problems

I been running 4.2.1 roms for awhile with no problems I wanted to try a 4.2.2 rom It flash ok, but I notice problems right away the home button didn't work the quick settings wasn't working none of the settings wouldn't change with out a restart.I thought it was the rom, So I cleared the data and flashed other roms and it was doing the same thing. I restore to stock, then I flashed a rom a again with the same problems! Anyone have an idea what it might be?
You said you cleared data? Is that all? Did you clear cache and dalvik cache? If not, you should.
yup did that may times
what roms did you try?
Did you use the right gapps for 4.2.2?
JBSourcery,Vanir,XenonHD

Yeah gapps-jb-20130301
If you wiped everything, flashed the ROM and flashed the right gapps, this shouldnt be happening. So I dont know. When you went back to stock, was it stock 4.2.2? If so, you had no issues that you are mentioning when you were on that? Home button, quick settings were all fine?

I dont know what to say man. Your phone doesnt like 4.2.2 ROMs. The only thought I have is TWRP is causing something to mess up. I dont use TWRP. I never liked it. I've always used Clockwork Mod Recovery.
