I have the virgin mobile epic4g touch /gs2 and in an attempt to root it i accidentally installed a sprint rom onto the phone and have no backup. Now my phone looks like the sprint version. Most things still work but mms does not. This is the reason I am looking to install the original VM rom so if anyone could post a copy of theirs and explain how to install it I would greatly appreciate it!!

Hey guys I recently got my phone flashed to metro pcs before I took it I flashed the fl24 stock rom, browser isn't working tho and I want to change the Rom, is it possible to flash a Rom like I used to when it was on Sprint or is there any special instructions because of the carrier?
Thanks!

Hey there!
I have the PACman ROM installed on my VM(CDMA) HTC One V. It's currently inactive since I got a Galaxy S3, but I want to give this phone to a friend for them to use. Will I need to revert back to stock in order for them to activate the phone with a new number? Or can I just sign up like I normally would on the Virgin Mobile web site and hope everything works out?
Thanks in advance!
I tried rooting my Virgin Mobile SPH L710, running android 4.3. My firmware upgrade was interrupted somehow and asked to connect to Kies. I did not know what to do so I downloaded a ROM off of the internet and flashed it using Odin. It changed my service provider to Sprint and I have no Virgin Mobile stuff. I'm wondering if there is a way to either reset everything on my phone to Virgin Mobile or a clean stock ROM to flash. Thanks for all of your help.
The reason this is happening to you is because your phone doesn't have a build of cyanogenmood for it. I have The VM GS3 as well and it says the same thing. Basically the way VM works is it pays sprint to use their coverage. So when you install a sprint rom in your phone if doesn't mean that your phone won't work, it just means it's going to think VM is sprint.

You can run Sprint ROMs only after changing some assert lines to show your baseband for Virgin Mobile.

I'm looking for all the help I can get.
I have a Sprint GS4 mini and I got this for my girl. all my phones I've always picked it up directly at sprint so it was always activated so I wasn't away that I would have problems activating her phone that I bought online.
Trying to be proactive so once I gave her the phone nothing would need to be done. I rooted it and installed a custom rom so I could have the bloatware and everything setup nicely for her.
I found out they can't activate it because of the custom rom and it didn't have the sprint PRL. I know the easy answer would be to flash stock, but the 1 stock file that's floating around online does not work, it crashes in ODIN.
I have the Dev of the ROM working with me but i'm hoping to help him and me by putting this out to everyone to see if anyone has any thoughts or a good stock firmware.
Also is it possible for anyone running SPHL-520 to upload a nandroid w/o Data so I can try to restore. I'm lost on what I can do now.
Thanks guys.
