pretty much just add esn to database...activate the account with that esn and then follow my guide and use either my roms or my script on a Sprint OTA based rom

I get the drivers installed then don't get anything else. I guess I'm gonna have to fork out $70 for a remote flash. Damn.

No need just go to a regular Metro PCS store, not an affiliate, and they charge $10...Follow Bloody's guide very easy take 30 minutes as long as you follow everything step by step.

lol. had a numberswap on the account and was entering the new number instead of the old one! I had to reformat my netbook with win 7 for the drivers to work. then I was able to connect on port 3. I have voice and text now, no data. I read about tolken's zip but It's not working for me.

Help please!!

Just use the bloodykiller86 guide and his metrodroid ROM easiest way to get DATA to work...

followed the guide to a T. The local metropcs guy don't flash phones. I told him "I saw on the internet" right, and he started saying youtube. I told him, "no, xda" he said well if you think you can hack that **** go ahead and try. My text were all out of order with the metro droid roms. CM 6.1.1 - MetroPCS Edition made that strait. but with no htc sync you have to use WiFi. Well, I don't know how to set the evo up for a PPP connection but I think that's a whole other thread. Autostart.root. The tolken's zip file flashed. no go for the mms. I live in Mt. Pleasant MI. I'm sure a lot of people up here would be thrilled!
and I followed blood's guide several times, thanks. That's what's got me this far. Thank you blood! CM 6.1.1 - MetroPCS Edition is so nice. If you might be able to help me, I got yahoo messenger and mIRC.

where are you from before you even waste your time. I paid 20 and went through all of that to find out I cant even use my Evo on metro because its dual band and i wont get service in New York.

Mt. Pleasant MI
who would I ask? metrotecks don't know nothing. less than I do anyway.
if that's the case I don't want metropcs in Central Michigan. Boost/Sprint has the 3G's In Mt. P but I would have to know how to go back to sprint. Would flashing an old IMG do that?

i have seen guides but from what i read it a royal pain the ass and don't work 99% of the time

I bet its a stolen phone

HERE'S a tutorial on flashing to metro. It will be a good start but you will need to change the addy from metro to boost. A little google searching should help you out but like I said, start here.

I know two people, that got there evo stolen too bad they can sorta still activate it on ghetto metro.
Any talk of boost/metro flashing should be banned >=]

The information in my post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1008909 may be helpful.
I completely agree with both nsxla and weehooherod... stolen phones shouldn't be able to be able to be activated. At the same time the way providers tie you into using their devices is as ridiculous as Apple's software copyrights not allowing you to use software you purchase on non-approved hardware (that's another topic). I have an acquaintances that is a area sales manager for a big cell company and his only argument for carriers not accepting outside phones is that they are not optimized for the individual provider's network and hence can bog it down. Yeah... mmmm hhhmm

Flashing to Metro is perfectly fine, because you don't need to illegally modify your phone, hell metro openly flashes evo's to their service.
However, putting an evo on Boost is outside of the legal guidelines since it requires a donor phone to clone onto the evo.

As far as MetroPCS and other pre-paid services bashing them is just plain ignorant. In some states you'll get better coverage with Metro than you would AT&T or some other contract providers and the prices are good.
To the OP: Metro has better coverage than Boost in my area so it might be worth checking out where you live.

[Q] Incredible ROM for sprint - HELP Please

Can someone help make a HTC Incredible ROM for the Sprint network. I have a Incredible working on sprint and would like the ability to update the Profile info to fix my data issues ... also so it has the right PRL file and other items.
Any help would be nice
Thank You

Would love to know as my friend is looking into getting a used android to pit on boost, would be interested to see if he could use my Inc when I upgrade.

I'm no expert. I thought sprint used GSM, this WIKI shows they are the same Radio Technology(CDMA). I know Evo radio firmwares works with the DINC. Can't say it's impossible, there used to be a cricket rom on here.
I'd repost in Q&A section. Your likely to get closed down and flamed out here.

I think I've heard Sprint won't activate an ESN not in there system

I have VZW Incredible on Sprint, we will not go int details on the forum but my im using ported evo rom, the profile or prl update section in rom does not work however im guessing you can get calls and text msgs to work but you have no 3G?
Next Question is if phone and sms are working did you do it yourself? Because if you did then it makes the process of explaining a whole lot easier.

I was under the impression Sprint blocked VZW ESN

OH they definitely do but theres always a work around

wayne2410 ... yes i did it my self and the Phone works and texting but no data. My thought was if someone can show me or cook me a ROM for the incredible with all of the sprint items built in I can update my profile and let sprint fix the Data on the phone. I have put in the AAA password and everything just wont get data. If you have some other idea to help out please email me.
Thanks,
Jay

Cook an Incredible ROM for Sprint
So is anyone willing to Help me COOK a ROM that is for the Incredible but will sprint base files ... and will this even work after i install the ROM can i update the Profile from sprint and fix my data issues ?

Isn't it easier to just get a sprint phone

Yes it would be easier to get a Sprint phone and if sprint offered a HTC phone that was good without having to pay for 4G i would ... my wife will never use 4g and there is no need for me to pay for it ... but her HTC Hero sucks

Hey jhamady check your email I sent you info that i used t get my Droid incredible working on sprint $20.00 Free and clear 3000 min unlimited data plan LOL

Sprint charges 10th for any smart phone not just 4G. Read up on stuff before you assume.

Will get you info soon

I too am having the same issues, the aaa is in, but no data. If anyone could forward me the directions going around from wayne, I would be extremely grateful. An incredible without data is incredibly frustrating.

Any Luck
anyone have any more luck getting data to work... I am about ready to give in. I still think if we can get someone to cook an Incredible ROM with sprint sys files we might be able to run update profile and let it repair its own data connection but even that might not work.

Recomendations?
I've been looking around through ported roms and thought that would be the best place to start.
If any of you guys using a Dinc on Sprint could recomend a rom that has as much of the "sprint" left in it as possible that would be awesome.
I'm running a Dinc with the EVO 2.15.00.11.19 Radio and EVO 1.90 PRI.
This thing ran awesome for about a month then out of nowhere something when haywire and no amount of revising my settings, COMPLETELY wiping and reflashing everything seems to fix the issue. I'm hoping a rom that will accept a OTA PRL and/or "Firmware" (PRI) update will fix it. If not, then I don't care and I'll find a new phone. ha ha

Switching Epic 4g from sprint to metro?

I looked but couldn't find a way to make the epic work on metro, is it even possible, if so how?
Sent from Looney Tunes Central!

It is possible as I have seen it running... you could try and go in to your local metro shop and ask if a rep there can do it for as this is how my friend if florida got it done... from my understanding not all of them will and most will not care if they mess something up so beware... I used to have the link to a video on how to get it working on boost but I can't find it at the moment but once I do I will send it over. Can't imagine its too different just switching a couple things up

I'm on Metro. I however deleted the outdated Metro Rom I use to have since I'm no longer in Metro's coverage, I now roam 24/7 on stock EI22 using 1x roaming.
I do recall what it was though.
The begnning of my signature is what I had running with the Metro rom. It ran init. Scripts, it had autostart.root, was on EI18, and it had iptables.
I had taken my device to a place that was an authorized MetroPCS dealer for 75$. You may find a place that does it near you, just check craigslist. Walking into your average store, or even corporate store won't resolve the issue. Before anything, first and foremost you need the ESN of your epic added to Metro, which can be manually input with authorization, or by 'flashing' the phone as another device. Its def possible.

Here is the other 2 xda would not except them apart so i zipped them for you

Most metropcs guides are outdated, keep that in mind, you also need the spc code for the password in order for mms and wap to ever work.

i would like to know as well, having a nice phone on verizon prepaid for unlimited talk and data for $50 would be the cool. i would switch from my 0g 4g metropcs $25 mo. unlimited 1x in a flash. get it,flash
i wondered about this a while back when i first seen verizon had unlimited prepaid, i called everyone to get the details and low and behold verizon prepaid xustomers service said you can only use the ones they allow you too use and they are non android phones. lol figures they want the prepaid people from otjer carriers to switch and at the aame time not lose any of their own android paying cuatomers. paying like $125 or more/mo.

Hey if anybody knows please tell me how to get the HA and AAA passwords from the Pantech Caper without the newest CDMA Workshop PM Me

Sorry guys i just edited it i meant without the newest cdma workshop PAID. I only have the cdma workshop 2.7.0 cracked

Best place to ask those questions is in Howard's forums thats the place to be at.

What he said there is a guide in the page plus fourmunder handset technical page 14 will get you 3g if follow that guide

Thanx you guys that will help with the data but all i need to know is can i u QXDM to get the HA and AAA shared Passwords from the Pantech Caper

Ran into an issue with the Caper. I would appreciate 64-bit drivers for windows 7 on the caper i already tried the Verizon access manger way. Or do i need to downgrade to 32-bit?

I wouldn't think the caper is a 3g phone, I flashed mine using a LG revere and got the keys by using a fascinate.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium

Lol even that way I'm stuck at 1x so I gave up and used the fascinate with the 50$ plan its so much easier but if u pm me on how u are getting it working I would greatly appreciate it
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium

Do any NVItems need to copied from the Caper for it to work. Does anybody have the full guide?
