Flash to cricket - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I don't have the cricket account yet.
I looked for tutorials but they seem outdated. Can someone tell me the step-by-step on how to get this done?
I have the evo 4g flashed and rooted. Im using a custom rom but I can put the regular sense back if I need to. I live in vegas, I was going to use metro but I guess we can't do CDMA flashes here. So cricket can tho.
Any help?
TLDR: Need stepbystep on how to flash to cricket.

Hey,
Here you go man! Good luck!

HELP: EVO Flashed to Metro (No NAM Settings?)

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

Maybe this will somehow help... It's for flashing to Boost Mobile but perhaps...

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.

Hey. I have an Ntelos Showcase also. Unfortuately I accidenly flashed a US Cellular ROM onto it and screwed it all up. I have an NTELOS or supposedly NTELOS rom back on it now but cant get data to work. Can u do ##data# on your phone and look to see what your user name is? i think its phone#@ntelospcs.net but im not sure. Any settings you can gather for me would be appreciated! or even if u know how to make a rom image from your phone so I can flash back onto mine.

[Q] metro pcs safe ROM??

i recently flashed my samsung epic 4g to metro pcs and everything works except for mms (even the internet). the phone is also rooted but i am afraid to put a rom on it because i heard that there is a chance it could lose its flash. i am running android 2.3.5 and gingerbread.ei22. is there a metro pcs friendly rom out there?? thanks
From what I have heard, flashing another rom causes the phone to lose its MetroPCS flash. I hope someone can prove me wrong as I am trying to flash my Epic over to MetroPCS as well.
Also, out of curiosty, did you use this guide --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192128 to flash it over to MetroPCS?
yes
that is the guide i used, but you will still need to add your esn to metropcs's inventory. how? idk. but i ended up paying to get it flashed. they should knock a few bucks off since you did most of it. oh and if you follow the guide correctly and get it flashed by a store you shouldnt pay for internet just get regular talk and text because when i got mine flashed thats what they did and i still got internet for free. mms doesnt work though. hope i helped
edit: i also heard you can make a backup, flash the rom and if you dont have service restore and never do it again but im to afraid to risk losing it. if you try it (i dont recommend it) and it works please send a link to the rom. Thanks

Flashing to Alltel or Cricket

Hey guys. I've been doing a bit of searching and have only been confused! I have an Evo4G from Sprint and I want to flash it over to be used on either Alltel or Cricket.
I say Alltel or Cricket, because from what i've been reading, there are alot of problems switching these phones to alltel..So i'm looking for suggestions from you guys as far as which to flash. Either will be fine, I just want whichever will work best.
Also, I have found a lot of information about PRL's..But i'm still confused as how to flash to one of these services. The phone is already rooted and running ICS (4.0.3)
So please guys, any information will be greatly appreciated! I'm doing this for a friend and was suppose to have it done by tomorrow, but i've been having so much trouble. I've never done anything like this on a CDMA network. I can normally unlock a phone and pop a sim card into it. I know from reading that I will have to flash some alltel files to it..I'm just having issues finding the correct files and a working guide.
Oh and in case location matters, (if i'm not mistaken other carriers own alltel in certain areas,) i'm in Western North Carolina
Here is the guide I use. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=934417
You will use qspt to flash the prl to your phone. You will need to be on a Sense 1.0 rom, or a Sense rom that has ##codes working.
As for MMS, I have never been able to get it to work, with new apns, gosms or any other way that's on the net. However I did find a solution that costs $5, and it works. Lemme see if I can find it again.
Thanks. I'm going to try it now.
Interesting........I'll have to check that guide out

check your pm's
It says to use the Jiminy rom but when I go to the page to download it, it says it's obsolete all over the page...Should I go ahead and use it? Or is there another one that will work?

you can use pretty much any modern Sense rom. Sense 3.0 and below seem to be best with getting MMS to work. Haven't made it work with Sense 3.5+ or any AOSP roms yet.

Did you try flashing anyone of this odin one clicks? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903252
Can't tell what you exactly did to flash on verizon so why not just start back fresh on sprint? Ofcourse backup your stuff first..
I had a Droid X from Verizon that I had flashed to boost. If I wanted to flash a rom I had to put the rom I wanted on the phone, then have it flashed to boost. My point is, flashing anything rom-wise would have made it a Verizon phone again. Like doing a factory reset. If you did a factory reset, it'd load sprint stuff again.
Odin safe recovery
Wipe data, cache, etc.
Flash a modem (maybe not necessary but I'd do it)
Flash a rom
Enjoy.
