[Q] Crynogen: lost diagnostics etc - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

In aosp roms I don't have access to diagnostics screen etc.
On sense roms I put up the dialer and go ##3424#, ##3282#, ##786 etc. On aosp roms those choices are not available. I know that access is possible through the terminal but I lack the commands and I can't seem to search the forum with the proper terms.
Someone please direct me. Thanks.

those diagnostic functions are built in to Sense and are tools specific to the device from HTC. If you need to access them then you need to flash a Sense rom I'm afraid.

If I don't have access to those screens then how do I change the MMS Server URL? I can live having to flash for access to the other options but the mms url is a must!

open the voice dialer and say "open APNs"

Search in the market for an app called APN Manager. It will allow you to edit your APNs for MMS access. (BTW, APN #1 is Sprint's so you can just activate that one and MMS should work right there).

flashed ROM/ No my medianet

I am new to tweaking my phone, it is a ATT Tilt 2 and I currently have the Energy Rom and Co0kies. My question is that I cannot connect to ATT My MEdia net thru Opera 10. Can anyone give me any pointers on how to configure it to have opera connect to My Media net.
Thanks

I think you could have been a tad more vague.
How is it possible that you were able to flash a rom and Hardspl the phone but you are unable to load a cab?
When you replaced the rom all the factory settings for your provider were erased. The cab he pointed to you reinstalls the ATT settings. You will still have to go to the connections box and select what you want your data connection to be.
Ask a proper question and on this site you are likely to get a great and informative response.
Oh, and welcome to XDA.
Well, Sorry if my question seemed vauge, Thanks for the cab file. I was able to install it no w/ no problems. My problem is not that I cannot connect with My MEdia net for internet connection, but I am trying to access the the ATT Stock My MEdia net personal Home page using Opera or any Browser.
Any help would be appreciated...
you have to enable the proxy to view medianet sites
go to this thread and download the proxy manager cab, once installed, just open up the enable proxy and you'll be good to go.
Thanks, Will install and check it out thanks...
Installed cab and restored hidden proxys, but I am unable to connect to the site? If anyone is familar with the stock ATT site it is device.home\
Broswer just says unable to connect? Stumped, I have been searching for days... Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks

The ATT Proxy cabs are for internet explorer. For Opera you need to modify the opera config. To do this point the Opera browser to "opera:config"
Once there, go to the Proxy settings and enable these:
Enable HTTP 1.1 for proxy
HTTP server=wireless.cingular.com
HTTPS server=wireless.cingular.com
Use HTTP
Use HTTPS
Use Proxy On Local Names Check
Save the settings. This will get you access to http://device.home
Unfortunately, Celluar Video will not work as it checks the User Agent, and Opera 10 is not supported through the ATT Proxies. You can try setting a custom User Agent in "opera:config" and set it to something like:
"HTC-ST7377/2.07.401.1 (80303) WWE Opera/9.70 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en)"
I have no clue if this will work though.

IDK
Thank you for your help, I am still having difficulties...
It basicly timed out trying to connect to the site, so I tried a basic site i.e. google and it still was timing out? I will try again, with the help of one of my co-workers who is more tech savy using the TP2 aswell but is w/ verizon

MMS Server URL

Is there a way to change this yet in CM6, if not then where exactly is this setting stored so I can alter it?
Not sure what you have tried but have you tried ##3282# then enter your msl and then edit/advanced/mms server url = http://mms.sprintpcs.com
I don't believe the epst codes work in cynogens rom

They don't last I checked, but where is this setting actually stored at? Is there any other way to alter it?
I think I found where it's stored, I think they actually edit the Mms.apk and store the setting in a .java file. Do these files stay the same between roms, ie. can I go flash a different 2.2 rom and edit the setting, pull the .apk and push it to CM6?
Okay, that didn't work. Can someone please tell me where the MMSC url address is actually stored at?

Flashing EVO with Custom Rom to another Carrier?

Hi guys, i'm from the Nexus S area, I have a question about the EVO. Someone I know has an EVO and his contract is up now, and mentioned flashing to another carrier. Does anyone know if he can get his phone flashed to the other carrier(Revol) with the custom rom already on it?
It will have to be a stock sense 1.0 rom or Espt codes wont work to activate the phone.
Sent From My EViLizED-iCS-EVo4G
It's possible, but he would have to hunt for some cdma pst tools for his PC which shouldn't be hard (e.g. QPST 2.7 355 ) so that you can connect to your phone via USB Cable. Now of coarse as mentioned above you will need HTC Sense to be able to dial keypad commands to get your phone into DIAG Mode "##3424#", but don't frown yet because if you have AndroidSDK or HTC Sync even so that you can use adb commands you should be able to put the phone into DIAG mode this way. I am assuming the phone is rooted since he has a custom rom. below are the adb commands to use to put the phone into DIAG Mode then you shouldn't have a problem looking for a guide using those cdma PST tools to program his phone to revol.
ADB Commands:
First be sure to cd into your directory where adb.exe is located.
adb devices <<< this command is just to be sure your phone is found
adb shell
$ su
# echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/usb-composit/diag/enable
That should enable DIAG for you. To disable DIAG once your done simply change the "1" from the last line to a "0" and it will be disabled.
Hope this helps one way or another.. good luck bud.
I have some one that has an Evo and wants it flashed to boost mobile. Question how do I go about that and can it still be rooted and have a custom rom after flashing it??
I have an EVO. Its on Boost. You can find the guide on how to do it around the net and on the forum. You can also buy the same guide on ebay... not sure why people bother.
You can root the phone or port it to Boost while it is not rooted. Doesn't matter. Once ported you can put on any rom that you feel like... again root or no doesn't matter. I have a non Sense rom. EPST codes sometimes give me trouble but for the most part I dont need it. I use Miui. You can use any rom you want but Sense rom will not give you voicemail notifications while any AOSP rom will. Thus my choice of Miui.
Without epst access on a sense rom you'll have trouble with MMS (picture messaging). What you have to do is change the APN settings... on a AOSP rom that's complicated. The easiest solution that I found is to not use the bundled messaging app and get GO SMS Pro from the Market (free). Once installed go into Settings> Adwanced> MMS Settings and Fill APN Configuration Manually
MMSC: http://mm.myboostmobile.com
MMS Proxy: Leave this one alone/unchanged
MMS Port: 80
Good luck.
PS: Please do not start a thread about this as the thread will quickly become a legal vs. illegal thread.

how would i edit menu settings in rom

I have been trying to figure out how to edit mutimedia settings in the ##3282# menu so that RTSP port is 0.0.0.0 and proxy is 0 by default when the rom installs.
if anyone can help me it would be much appreciated
You first need to make sure you're installing a touchwiz based rom, since CM7 and MIUI roms don't have this hidden menu. Next, you need to find you MSL Number. You can either call Sprint and hope you get a representative that will be nice enough to tell you or follow these instructions
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/sprint-epic-4g/135422-easy-way-get-your-msl.html
After you get that number, simply type ##DATA# into your dialer, go to edit, type in your MSL, and navigate to Multimedia to change the proxy. Note that most custom roms have this already fixed so it might not need to be done. Good luck anyways

Yes, I have tried it on two phones, I can post video link too, and you can download them from market too
Links to apnbr and autostart, please?

ok so when i tried to send a pic message its just stuck in "sending".
Are you sure you wifi is off, and the db files show your phone settings.
Please click thanks if this helps, install the sqlite editor from the mms_fix zip, and then using rootexplorer, check the telephony.db shows your settings.

Settings???...all I did was set checked all the box on permission for telephony.db and I use sqlite to go into that file and clicked on the second option and a whole list of carriers popped up and it looked like a Excel database file with metropcs on the very first main top of the page and i went and change only the username and password (which is my metro pcs msl).

I had that problem with a couple of phones...did you wrote the metro prl in the phone? If so then try manually programming (##yourmsl#)the phone after that then edit the mdn and msid. Just put your number instead and for the msid you need to get that from your old phone through the same process or in the "about phone" section.

I have tried all the steps a couple of times and still getting the FC error on startup and when I try to go into the messaging app??
Delete all the database files and the mms app, make sure you use 2004 prl, it will give you better internet (yes 1x works better than 3g).
Try the new updated solution, different rom and it work guaranteed

thanks for the guide. but its ##3282# for that menu.
oh sorry, i dont know why i wrote that.
Do you have working mms, because other people are having problems
Do we have to use that ROM in the OP, or does any ROM work if it is flashed to Metro?
It'll suck to give up Cyanogenmod
try changing the apn settings, if it doesn't work then try changing mms app. use 2004 prl
!!!WORKS!!!
Hey it works now...i just came back to this thread to see if theres any updates or progress to make pic messaging work and it has finally work for me.
P.s. im using 3027 prl but ill give 2004 a try.
