Hello,
I have a Sprint Galaxy S2 flashed to Metro PCS and everything works GREAT!
EXCEPT 4G... i get good 3G internet but when i try to use 4G it tries to connect to sprint. How can i get my phone to use Metro PCS 4G???
thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
I'm pretty new at all this, but it sounds like a PRL issue...you should have a PRL file that includes the Metro 4G.
Metropcs uses LTE 4g and our phones are Wimax 4g, so sorry but no working 4g on your phone,
There is NO WAY you can get 4g to work...but I'm surprised you got mms working...i have been trying to get mine going...

Im wondering if anyone has discovered hot to link metropcs flashed Evo to 4G speeds or 3G anything faster than 1x??
The Evo uses Clearwire's WiMax network for 4G service, so I doubt you'll be able to get 4G.
What about 3G?

we'll thats the bad thing about metro PCS
well 3g speeds are governed by your network and 4g speeds wimax.. uses as stated before clear wire service from sprint so basically if metro does not have a 3g network you can't get 3g on your phone and metro only has a 4g LTE network without wimax support your also down in that category i know this because i flashed my old eve to metro for a month and got sick of the damn slow speed so i switched back to sprint thank god i kept my contract with sprint while testing out metro.. but you do get what you pay for ...
Thanks

I believe this is not possible on this phone. MetroPCS uses LTE, the epic 4g touch uses wimax and has a wimax radio, not LTE.
ok, thanks!
Thanks im looking for the answer too
Did you flash it yourself? I flashed mine to Virgin ($25 a month!).

Hello, I have my Epic Touch flashed to Metro PCS as well, but my MMS isn't working. By chance, did you flash the phone yourself and know how to configure the MMS? Your kind assistance will be greatly appreciated!
Is your mms working
I did not flash it myself and I don't have mms.

Hello again,
So I am returning the Droid bionic that I posted about last night. So I know own a sprint 4g evo. The Guy i bought it from said it was flashed to Metro pcs. Which is was it say's metropcs on the lock screen. Now my only issue is getting the data to work. he said that he had everything working on it when he was on metro pcs.
So any way of getting data working for the htc evo 4g sprint, for metro pcs.
I saw a few postings for iphone, But i wasn't able to find a thread in regards to the iphone4 on the att&t gophone prepaid. Anyone can refer me to that area, and i'll post my questions in there.
Why can't I get 3g speed? All I get is 1x data speeds. It isn't my area because I have had other phones flashed to cricket before and I got good 3g speeds. My nexus s 4g didn't have any problems.

I think it has to do with crickets radio frequency, and the fact that it's flashed and not made for cricket.
And also Samsung doesn't make the best radios
I know with Page Plus, you need a Verizon donor phone to get 3G unless the phone you are flashing is an actual Verizon phone. Wonder if Cricket is the same way?
There is a thread over at www.cricketusers.com that will help you get 3G.
Lot's of info for Epic Touch Cricket phones over there.
Have a boost mobile S3 great service and works fine. Used as a donor for my Note 2 (nothing like a note 2).. Flash went well, only problem is 3g barely works and no 4g even though the S3 gets it.. All updates and firmware go through. Same with PRL updates. But 3g barely works (slow to connect when I take off wif)i. Then very slow speed. Absolutely NO 4g which I was told if I had a 4g donor I would get when I changed over to the note 2. NO SUCH LUCK... Anybody?
