Hi,
I need a little help if you dont mind. I'll get right to it.
I wasnt getting any mms on my marvelc so I did what I would have done on my old evo 3d, ##3282# then entered my msl. After that I selected data profile and restored it (which erased my data profile). On sprint network, after you do that then reboot the phone, it does hands free activation, this one doesnt do that. So I went to settings/about phone/activate phone. it went through the process and now I dont have data either, hehe, ya I know.
So I called VM and they did a 3g reconnect or something and it didnt work either. They were supposed to call me back but they didnt.
So after waiting an hour I decided they were'nt calling me back and I thought I could just RUU it back and I'd probably have my data profile back.
I got the VM/Sprint RUU from here http://www.filefactory.com/f/7b4aa0a541dcf00f/ and relocked my bootloader, then I went back to hboot and ran the RUU. It did most of the installing but stopped at hboot install and gave me an error about the hboot being a lower version and it wouldnt flash. I assume this is because I upgraded my hboot to htcdev unlock. So I'm thinking I need a newer RUU with the new hboot?
I also extracted the rom.zip from the RUU and renamed it to PG76IMG.zip and tried to flash it from hboot and it said my main version is lower, so it wouldnt go either. Do you have a lower main ver and do you know the commands to change it?
Or do you know the settings that I need to put in the data profile?
Thanks for the help.
Update. Figured out how to change the main version so I can run the RUU.
Update 2. RUU worked with the tool I used and now hboot is back to 1.06, without the relocked banner, very cool, that tool is awesome, thanks theq86. But unfortunately it didn't fix my data problem, it did give me my warranty back though
Bump for the night crew.
If anyone here has Virgin mobile us, could you please tell me a few things.
Please dial ##3282# (##data#) and select edit mode, itll ask for your password (msl). If you dont have it, you can get it with "msl reader" from the market, its free. Enter your msl and then choose edit mode.
This is what I need, PLEASE.
Active profile <--- How many
User name <--- I dont need your user name I just need to know what goes here.
SPI MN-HA <---?
SPI MN-AAA <---?
Reverse tunnel preferred <--- Enable or Disable?
Home IP Address <---?
Primary Home Agent <---?
Second Home Agent <---?
HA Shared Secret <---?
AAA Shared Secret <---?
I dont think any of this information is a secret but you can pm it to me if you dont want to post it.
Any information will help at this point. Thanks.
hi
may sound a bit obvious but are you sure you have turned on mobile data??
and if not you may need to set up the correct apn (access point name) if you dont have it drop into your local service providers shop and ask them to fill it in for you
my wildfire (buzz) has a lot of issues with incorrect apn settings when i switch between roms. and if you dont have the correct setting your mobile data will not work. so give that a bash if you havent already.
good luck

Thanks for the reply, I wish that was my problem, but its not. When I went to edit mode after typing ##data# I chose to restore and that zero'd out all my data profile settings (smart huh). After talking to the 3rd tier of tech support they said that they needed to send my case to HQ. He said he'd done all he could. I just need those settings back. I asked him if he knew the AAA shared secret and he didn't know what I was talking about. The mobile data setting says no connection available when it is checked.
brutal man. sorry hopefully someone else can help out
Sorry to resurrect this thread but I just wanted to update it incase someone else has the same issue I did.
After about 2 weeks and about 50 virgin mobile reps later, they finally told me that my phone cannot be fixed. I told them exactly what happened and they still thought its because of a bad phone, whatever, I'm not gonna argue. I ran an ruu, did multiple factory resets, did a ## code to activate the phone, they reactivated the phone, nothing restored my data profile. I thought for sure that the ruu would do it but I guess the ruu is just HTC software and what I need is virgin mobile data.
Lesson learned, do not erase your data profile or you're screwed. I think theres a way to back that stuff up and I'm gonna do some research to figure it out. I should have my new wildfire s in about 3 days. I know that someone woulda helped if they could have so thanks anyway.

I flashed the rom using IMCokeMan's cool tool and then installed a bunch of apps.
But then I found that while the device can see the EVDO network, as soon as a program tries to use it, the program stalls and then waits for the phone to revert to using the 1X (GPRS?) method.
Any idea how to troubleshoot this?
Thanks,
RS

what rom did you flash to, was it a custom rom off ppcgeeks, or did you flash with an elf (gsm) rom
the vogue (CDMA) touch uses 1xRTT slower data and EVDO which is the faster (3G) data, not gprs like GSM devices
Used CokeMan Vogue Rom
I just followed these directions:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=12255&page=2
I have the Sprint Vogue and that rom is supposed to be for Vogue.
I keep trying the "initiate custom nai entry to device" under settings->phone->internet->get settings.
My phone can see the EVDO but cannot use it. It defaults to 1X and drains the hell out of my battery.
It's possible it's a sprint outage in SF, but I don't know.

i would post in the forum for the individual who made the rom (usually they have a thread going on over there at ppcgeeks.com) honestly i dunno why your using a custom rom on the touch there isnt any out with any new features really (yet) if anything they have the OEM rom so you can flash back, otherwise call tech support your device may need to be re-provisioned which would require tech support to assist with
Only 1xrtt fix
This happened to me too. Call sprint tech support and have them do a depro repro on your account. Basically they reset your vision setting on your account and force a OTA provisioning.
Re
Me too noobs in these things and flushed my rom and got in serious trouble and called pc expert and get fixed
Same prob found this
##778 choose edit,to unlock s/b 000000, tap view info, then security make sure the HDR AN AUTH Password is your phones ESN
You just need to update your roaming list. Call support and they will give you a program code to call to update the roaming list. That is all that is wrong.
Cheers.
When I try to save the PPP settings for verizon (they are currently set to: [email protected] and I need to change to [email protected]), the settings continue to revert back to alltel!!! I really need some help with this - why would I be able to change every other setting via QPST except for PPP username and psw? Does anyone know if this has something to do with the registry? Thanks so much!
"I'm not really sure why you are editing these fields in QPST or why you would need to. If you have Verizon, flash with the latest WM6.1 that Verizon released, then flash with this ROM. Once you do *228 and get activated these settings will all be configured automatically."
I did that - I need these settings corrected so that I can access data. I am unable to do so because the settings keep reverting back to [email protected], even after I just changed them! I just now flashed back to the Sprint Stock ROM with radio 3.43 and still is unchanged!
I don't know what to do... I'm really freaking out - I did flash to an alltel ROM in the past, but why aren't the newer ROMS overwriting the old PPP settings???? Is it a radio problem (shouldn't be because I just flashed with Sprint radio ROM)
In any case, no matter what ROM I use, I cannot edit the PPP username and psw - it always reverts back to alltel. Does anyone know what I should do? Thanks!
P.S - I also installed the dcd Verizon Wireless carrier cabs and still no go...
I'm not really sure why you are flashing with all these different ROMS to be quite honest. I'm assuming that when you flash with these ROMS you aren't letting customs run? What ROM are you eventually going to be using? Do you care about being able to enable GPS?
All I care about right now is getting the PPP username and password changed.
It seems as though I cannot access the nvm folder using EFS File Explorer. I am trying to use QXDM, but I have no idea how to use it. Does anyone know what the commands are for changing PPP in QXDM?

Dude...flash with the official Verizon ROM linked below. Let customs run. Once complete dial *228 and choose option #1. Once that is complete you may have to call #8899 to get a new authentication key. Make sure your phone is unlocked with the 2.31 imcokeman unlocker, which I assume it is since you are already flashing away with various ROMs. Once you do this your settings will be fixed. You shouldn't be editing them the way you are trying. REFLASH WITH OFFICIAL VERIZON ROM...nuff said.

This is what I would do as well. What radio on you on. You say 3.43, but there is no 3.43. Check in Device Info in settings.
It souunds like you flashed an altel rom and let custmizations run.
Try flashing the stock rom (from verizon) and let customizations run. Then follow the steps to listed earlier in this thread (think the site was wiki pda) to get aGPS running. I wouldn't call Verizon for an A key until you are done flashing. Then the easy way to repopulate your phone is to go online to verizon my account and activate another phone on your line, then active your 6900. When you do this it automaticlly sends a new A key and don't have to try and explain to tech why you need it done.
Good luck
Okay I am doing that now. You are correct, I did let customizations run...
However, I was able to forcibly edit the NV Items using CDMA Workshop and that seemed to work...until I tried to edit the password with QPST. So I will give it a try and if it still doesn't work, I will just re-write the NV Items everytime I use QPST. Thanks guys.

The sreps I was refering to were in the rom thread, but here is a link.

I would be very careful changing stuff to verizon already.
I went into the alltel store and they won't even activate a verizon phone yet
because if you have verizon software they will bill you on a different account on verizon (if you're still under an alltel contract), which means that you will be being billed per minute and for data as a pay as you go plan.
she said this is because verizon and alltel billing systems aren't fully integrated yet.
so if you haven't resigned a verizon contract yet, meaning you're still on your original alltel contract, be careful.
Evening everyone!
I just got a hold of an HTC Desire to upgrade my line from the HTC Hero. So, after an ESN transfer, it's all set, but now I'm stuck in Digital Roaming, and I can't get a hold of data. I've got an unrooted(can root) HTC Desire to pull settings from, but I'm trying to figure out a way to get the Cellular South data onto this phone. I'm not sure if I could take a Nandroid from the other phone and restore it here, or if I need to use the DATA and EPST codes to continue manually programming this phone. Any advice would be helpful!
~Ark
[EDIT] It's a PRL issue. I can't pull the PRL from the *228 command in order to get the file, and I haven't found the file online either. Currently working with a specialist concerning the issue, but if anyone can extract the file, it would be greatly appreciated.
I am using the Jiminy V Rom on Cricket
I am unable to OTA or make calls on the Cricket network. when I try and make a call I get 'Unauthorized' and when I try to OTA (*228) the system says 'unable' at the very beginning. I have done many EVO's to cricket before, and I have checked and double checked all my PST settings, my MEID/MIN/MDN/PRL particularly.
Even when OTA doesnt work , I can always get voice/text working on virtually any other phone by manually programming the MDN/MIN/Home SID & PRL.
My cricket home SID is 4923 & I am using PRL 32200
I have even loaded a working evo's PST settings into this phone (via QPST, read from one phone, write to another), and get same results even after making sure the MDN/MIN & MEID are correct.
The symptoms are exactly the same as if my MEID is not in the cricket system, yet I have triple checked them (and I had someone else program another phone with my MEID and that phone OTA'd and made calls on Cricket with no problem).
Some other data for consideration Android 2.1, build Baseband 2.15.00……007.25 kernel 2.6., Radio 2.05.00.06.10, HBOOT 0.79.0000 SHIP S-OFF
I have also tried factory builds 2.2 (3.26.651.6) and 2.1, (Baseband 2.05.00.06.10,Build 1.41.651.1) with same result. Note: they did not change the PST.
Is there a factory build which will put everything back to Sprint or should I consider updating the HBoot and /or Radio?, I assume the programming for the OTA is done in the Radio?
I am stumped.
Bump, If anybody can help me with this, its been driving me up the wall for two weeks now.,
Have you tried flashing an RUU and updating everything from there? If it isn't the MEID then it might just be your phone having a glitch. Flash it using RUU and let me know.
how do you reset PST/NAM (SPC,MIN,MDN, Etc) to factory?
I have tried RUU_Supersonic_1.32.651.1_Radio_1.39.00.04.26_release_171253.exe , hboot goes from 0.92 to 0.79, radio from 2.15 to 1.39.00.04.26, and android from 2.2 to 2.1.
But the pst/nam settings remain unchanged, mdn,min, sip, nai, etc are all cricket. even the SPC is still unlocked at 000000. ANd the S-OFF flag is off, Shouldnt the RUU's re-root the phone?
Is there an alternate way to run the RUU, I have tried putting the phone in HBOOT usb mode, then run the RUU but with three different batteries it tells me they are too low (under 30%).
Should I be in Hboot mode to run RUU? (I have been running it from the PC with the phone booted up.
To answer a couple of my own questions, none of the RUU's reset the EPST whether they where loaded from the PC via the .exe method or from the SD card PB31IMG method.
I found a reference to ##786# and found that yes that does reset the EPST (including the SPC) back to factory.
So I figured maybe the problem would be solved, so I updated PST for cricket (MDN,MIN,SID,PRL) and tried again, still no OTA and still 'Unauthoriized; when I try to make calls.
I am starting to believe I have a hardware problem, but how can most of the phone work and yet it have (apparently) problems transmitting MEID?
Seems like no interest here or everybody stumped. I am willing to pay some one to help me resolve this. contact to my email or post here, I will certainly let the forum know when I resolve this. Thanks

Your problem has different symptoms from mine (the threadstarter), it sounds like your prl is incorrect. If you have a correct prl & sid (these can vary for the market you are in , in Phoenix the SID is 4923 and I use the old nationwide non EVDO PRL of 1040) when you dial 611 you will get Cricket, regardless of your ESN/MEID being registered with Cricket, if this doesnt work do not go further. Find a PRL/SID that works (sometimes changing CDMA connect from Auto to Home only can help) . Also make sure MNC/MNC are set to 310/0. Country code/Carrier I think.
Once you get 611 to connect to Cricket, *228 (OTA) will connect to cricket, if It disconnects you before the music starts playing and says 'Sorry....' it is most likely your MEID is not registered correctly with Cricket. In Phoenix *228 always works on EVo's as long as SID/PRL/MEID are correct,
The message you are getting about a credit card required means you are connnecting to some other carriers network (usually Verizon) which is transferring you to someplace to allow you to make a call even though you are
"not authorized" on the network. Go back and check 611 & *228.*228 will load the correct prl for your area and rate plan, check after it runs to see what was loaded. It will also most likely overwrite EVDO settings including MIP, Sip, NAI, etc.
At this point your phone should work, talk & text.
I had the same problem and I look all over. I wanted to unroot and remove jimmy v rom. I was think that if i update to the new update that it will fix it self and i was right. First I had to remove the jimmy v rom, so i got ruu to update the htboot and that let me update to the new 2.3.3. It fix it self and f***ing A.

Can you be more specificwhat you loaded and what versions of hboot where involved? I downgraded to 2.1 (with RUU) and hboot .79 and it did not resolve problem.

Yes you can. You just need to flash a metro prl to your phone, and then contact them. They should be able to do the rest ota. You can get a metro prl here http://www.corolada.com/prl/. If on a stock rom you can flash it with epst, if not you need to use a pc program called QPST.
Man you are the greatest..Seriously!
Im gonna try it right now
Although i need help because QPST cant detect the phone. Im pretty sure that means that the phone needs to be in diagnostic mode
But im trying to get in it but i can't. Does it have to do with being in Tiny's CM10 and not stock?
Well update, i went to gingerbread and changed the prl but i dont think my number got transfered although the metropcs system works
Any help with this?

Simply changing the prl will not program your phone. The prl meerly allows metro to comunicate with the phone. Im not sure exactly how metros system works. Do you already have an account and number from metro, and is the phones meid registered on metro? If it is you can probably dial *228 and select the option to program if metro uses this option. If you dont have an accout or your phone isnt registered with metro, you will need to call them and do so. You just give them the phones meid they register it, and then program the phone ota (over the air).
