Develop Bugs

Please help with my #777 connection issues...

Whats up everyone? I just upgraded from an apache to a vogue. I went through the steps to get it on metropcs and it worked fine. When it still had the Alltel rom on it I called metropcs and added the web service. I set it up and it worked fine!!!!! The only problem I had with it was everytime after I disconnected the username and password cleared out somehow.
When I updated with the alltel rom I forgot to soft reset before the provision .cabs installed. I read somewhere to do a hard reset and soft reset before the provisioning. Now no matter what I do when I try to connect it always says the username or password is wrong. I have even tried upgrading the rom and its the same thing. I do know how to setup the connection and everything. I have done it before. All of the proxy settings are correct and I changed it to simple ip only.
I double checked and made sure that the internet was working on my real metropcs phone and its fine. Some help would be greatly appreciated.

Go into your espt ##778 or ##778# and check your M.IP fields under the M.IP default profile and the M.IP settings profile. Not being familiar with metro but knowing they are very similiar to cricket I would suggest changing the MIP mode to SIP from MIP preferred as you have done. That may fix it in itself as the big carriers use MIP authentication where cricket does not (assuming metro follows suit.) If not check your username and password settings under epst security tab and NAI fields under the M.IP default profile.

I had the wrong password or username problem and what I did was activate my old phone, get the data connected on that phone, then reactivate my vogue, *228, remove battery procedure and magically it worked after that
of course this was after days of going through all sorts of settings, qpst, cdma workshop and all sorts of stuff I can't even remember that seemingly did absolutely nothing

woodicw: Well i had the same problem with my alltel 6800 and wow that battery magic trick sure worked...LOL...QPST couldn't even help...LOL...I'm so glad I own a Vogue as well or i would have never found this.
Thanks-a-Million for sharing that information. Cheers!!!

Manually Programming HTC Incredible For Verizon Networks

So when you activate a new phone you have to do all the *228 stuff to register it on verizons network. Since the phone gets programmed OTA you have to be using a Verizon network. Thats where my first problem happened. Since I'm in Alaska and there are no Verizon towers (just partners) everywhere is roaming and you cannot do the OTA update/activation.
I got the phone programmed by changing the NAM settings by "calling" ##778 but only voice and sms work right now.
Now the only problem is that I don't know exactly what I need to change to get the data communications working. I know in order to use data communication on a partner network (while in roaming) you have to first use some kind of data transfer on a verizon network. I can only guess that is so the phone gets programmed properly.
If anyone would care to share their knowledge or share their Modem Settings and M.IP profile information hopefully I can get this thing working 100% again; and by not using verizon's "only" method (as the customer service says)

Call back VZW and tell them that you need to do a manual program - I used to work there and they should walk you through all of the steps/entry over the phone.

I appreciate the insight espmetalhead, however when I called vzw and asked them about manually programming it they said the only thing they can manually program is voice/sms. To program the phone for data you HAVE to be in a verizon network no matter what. I don't really understand why. I have another phone (blackberry 8330) that has working data communication here in alaska. WHy can't you just take whatever settings the blackberry has for data and use it on the incredible? lol. man, its so frustrating. I really don't want to ship my phone to my parents and walk them through programming the incredible for me haha.
espmetalhead: hopefully in your experience you've came across a way to manually program a phone for data communication...

There is a way to do it from what I remember, you just have to get to a data tech this is high enough in the chain so they can do a walk through. A csr over the phone should be able to route you to the right person. I know I did some Windows Mobile device manual programs that fired up data.

Unfortunately, you have to be in the Vz network to program for data. They use an authentication key that can only be transmitted OTA through their own network for data services. It's a CDMA thing, so there's really no way around it.

so why isn't it possible to just read the key to me over the phone or something?
Idk, it just doesn't seem right. It seems like that has to be a way to do it manually...
Maybe I'm just in denial because I really don't want to send it back to the lower 48

Manually Programming for Data
Does anyone know how to program the Incredible to get data? For some reason after updating to 2.3.4 it just quick making calls and getting onto mobile networks. I solved the making calls issue by manually programming it through ##778. But now I'm without data, so does anyone have any ideas on how to get this accomplished? Any help would be great! Thanks!

hi this is Waseem from Pakistan i am facing much problems in activating my HTC droid incredible 2.
i have tried alot to update my phone but it's not working and the activation dialer is also work-less. please guide me through the whole procedure, what should i do next to activate my phone. i already have restored the factory setting twice but still not updating... i wil be very thankful to you for this act of kindness.

Ruud Westerhout said:
As a matter of interest :
1) Should I be disconnected from the net when I do this ?
2) Should I be taking the GSM-Card out of the phone when doing this
3) If I do a hard-reset now, and being asked x-cancel 0-hard-reset, what would be the result ?
4) Are there any other reasons for the device not being recognized, or not for soo long ?
PS. I am using the internet through a router/firewall and I am not using the XP-firewall.

[Q] About to throw this damn thing against a wall... any help welcome.

To start, I AM searching and trying to find any and all information that could possibly help me out.
I rooted using unrevoked. Used Calk's rom, switched to netarchy-toastmod-4.3.1-cfs-havs-nosbc-universal-signed, made several nandroid backups (one including the RSA keys, although the backup made when using unrevoked made one of the RSA keys also), tried Ava-Froyo, went back to Calk's. Also tried the PRL hack.
Im new to all this but am fairly technically inclined and understand, so I think, these processes. Of course Im still learning obviously...
....cause somewhere along the line I lost the ability to get incoming calls !!!!!!!
I can still make calls (my number comes up on caller ID correct), send texts, use the net, email, and use wifi tether.
When i make a call it triggers something cause all my texts, mail, and voicemails come streaming in all at once.??????
Im at my wits end, and probably will be up all night trying to fix it.
I found some values in my advanced settings after dialing ##3282# that were different and wonder if thats the problem.
if someone will post me their info from the ##3282# screens (off course omit your phone number under advanced) that would be awesome !!!
S is still showing off.
I have gone back to:
RUU_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.26.651.6_Radio_2.15.00.07.28_NV_1.40_release_140444_signed
and then:
RUU_Supersonic_1.47.651.1_Radio_2.05.00.06.10_release_CL195459
and then the over the air update to 2.2
still not working....
I really dont want to go to the friggin Sprint store....
And any other advice where to steer my searching and efforts would be greatly appreciated !!!!!

Did you mess with your evdo settings from the settings: networks: mobile networks settings screen?
do ##3282#, under evdo, does it say automatic, or something else?

HDR is what's preventing you from receiving calls. After you make the above change, go back into ##3282# and confirm that evdo is set to "automatic"
These network settings carry over regardless of rom's. You can flash til you're blue in the face, problem won't go away

You may want to delete that so your streaming works without hiccups.

It needs to be set to auto or hybrid.

ok, now im stumped!
something keeps changing my friggin phone number in my advanced settings in ##3282#
i can change it, commit the change, update profile and everything will be fine and work (get calls).
but then when i reboot it will switch back !!!!
i havent installed, to my knowledge, any rogue crap.
what in the blazes could be causing this???

Are you changing it in ##3282#, or in the network settings that evio 2 1.80 gives access to?
Try changing in network settings, not in ##3282#.
Also, if you want, there is an option in ##3282# to completely wipe the settings. I can't remember which heading it's under, but you need to hit menu and it'll say something like reset settings, or reset something.

I had a simular issue. Unroot the phone flash the ruu then OTA then call sprint tech suppeort and ask them hard resset your phone. It helped me. should help you to. here is how 2 unroot
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780141&highlight=unroot

Seems like an awful lot of work to fix this.. I'd exhaust other possibilities before going through all this trouble.

My phone is done. My phone wouldn't call or text earlier so i did a reset on the ##768# screen or whatever so it would run hands free activation again. It failed out. Erased all of my data from the epst screen. Can anyone help? Phone will not connect to data

Did you happen to have your number ported over from another carrier when you got your Evo?

Yes, it was ported. But the number listed in there wasnt the old number. Anyway my phone has been working now, with that old number in it...so...
The only thing is that when on data network it show 'EvDo' all the time, never '3G'. Is this a problem? I have been tring to read up on it and it seems fine, but everyone else's Evo's here seem to show 3G.
Im still trying to locate the original settings so I can compare exactly what I see when I do the ##3282#.
Thanks again for you help!

Wimax (4G) tweaks/3G Tweaks

In order to make changes such as these (There may be more or better ones listed for the Epic 4g but these ones are for the EVO 4g) follow these guides:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=733773
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=726877
First you will need your MSL. You can either go through the hassle of contacting Sprint and trying to get them to give it to you, or download a terminal emulator program from the market at follow these instructions:
Once in your preferred terminal program (connecbot, terminal emulator, etc.) type the following EXACTLY:
getprop ril.MSL
It should display your MSL.
From there you can do the 4G and 3G tweaks.
Turn 4g on, go to the dialer, enter ##3282# click view then click Wimax. Enter your MSL, scroll down and choose extensions from there. This is where you will change certain settings mentioned in the threads above. To change the following edits to suggestions below, just long press the option you want to edit and click write extension.
1. Scroll down the list and click on "WiMAX_Scan_Retry(s)"
2. Enter the number 15 and click "OK" (This equals 15 seconds instead of 120 seconds, stock is )
3. Scroll down the list and click on "WiMAX_Entry_Delay(s)"
4. Enter the number 0 and click "OK" (This equals 0 seconds instead of the stock of 300 seconds)
5. WiMAX_Entry_RX(RSSI)(dBm) - Default is -89. This is the minimum signal it has to be picking up to connect. I'm not sure what the best value here is, but the lower the number, the quicker the connect, since it will connect to a weaker signal. You'll have to experiment some with this, I recommend trying about -95 to -100 first. If it's unstable, raise the value closer to -89.
6. WiMAX_Exit_CINR(dB) - Default is 2. See the entry CINR value for an explanation of it. If the signal degrades to a CINR of 2, it will drop the connection. Change this to 1. This should let you stay connected longer. If you run into problems with staying connected but having an unreliable connection, change it back to 2.
7. WiMAX_Exit_Delay(s) - The default is 2. Since it's measured in seconds, that means if the CINR drops to 2 or below for 2 seconds, it will drop the connection. Raise it to 5. That should be enough to cover just a random drop in signal that will pick back up right away. That way you don't drop connection if you drive under a bridge or something (I'm rocking mine at 15s here, but it'll take any value up to 600 seconds, which is 10 minutes!)
8. EntryCINR, change from 0006 to 0004.
Thanks to Geniusdog254 and swatspyder for finding these tweaks!

It is suppose to help streaming and 3g. Try it, if it doesn't work go back to the stock settings above.

Im really curious if this works for 3g. No 4g in indianapolis and 3g speeds are usually 100kb.

I called *2 and first thing I asked was for this and she gladly gave it to me, as always it is hit and miss. If they don't do it, hang up try again. There are other ways but I think they all pretty much require root, I could be wrong though.

to the OP.. i dont have the phone yet but im wondering about the wimax settings myself.
first thing to try.. ##DATA# but instead of going to edit.. go to view. see if theres a wimax setting in there. it does NOT show up when u pick "edit". if there IS a wimax option under ##DATA# > view.. then it will most likely require your MSL.
another place to try is ##DEBUG# which will require MSL as well. there might be wimax settings somewhere in there.
one last thing i'd like you to try is to install AnyCut from the android market(free). open it and choose to add shortcut or whatever(forget the exact option) and it will give you a list of all the system apks/menus on your phone.. scroll down and see if there are any wimax options. if there are.. could you please list them? could you also make shortcuts for each wimax option you do see and run them to see if you find anything interesting.
please report back with details. you're my eyes on this for now

You are 100% correct. The wimax settings are in " view" and not "edit". This is the same way it was for epic1, now to get my msl? Does connectbot require root?

Alright, with you last paragraph I think I may have found it. Here is what was listed and here is how to do it (you have to have 4g on in order to make changes however):
WiMax CT
WiMax DM
WiMax Mode Change
WiMax_CFG
WiMax_CFG
WiMax_NETEST
WiMax_RC
WiMaxLineTest
In order to make changes such as these (There may be more or better ones listed for the Epic 4g but these ones are for the EVO 4g) follow these guides:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=733773
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=726877
Download Any Cut from the market, open it and choose New Shortcut, then choose Activity. Scroll down to WiMax_CFG (the first one, there after two listed) and it will create a shortcut on your home screen. Open that and select Extensions and make the changes from the threads above in that menu (just long press what you want to change and click save, it will automatically change it). You might have to reboot your phone in order for them to actually take but I'm still not sure if this all works.

It also looks as though you may be able to adjust frequencies. I'm tempted to test them. In wimax_cfg the first one under MRU you'll see 4 sts of frequencies and you can edit then it seems.

Honestly, I haven't changed a thing yet..notice my 4G in the 2nd screenie. I don't know if changing latency to change 4G on time will use more battery or not

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I think it probably will, but not certain.

A different route I found is to turn 4g on, go to the dialer, enter ##3282# click view them click Wimax. Enter your MSL and choose extensions from there.

To get your MSL code, download terminal emulator from the market and typs:
getprop ril.MSL
The output will be your MSL number.

family mobile settings

I recently got an HTC One M8 and am having difficulty setting it up to work with Family Mobile.
I've entered in all the information from https://www.myfamilymobile.com/Supp...94-457c-90a3-7c8b7ac7b1f8#GeneralFAQ-Answer15 but am still getting a "Connection failed due to incorrect APN setting".
I tried using 216.155.175.188:8080 as the proxy per http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15137221&postcount=3 but that didn't help.
I also tried using 216.155.165.50:8080 as the proxy per http://www.apnwiki.com/walmart-family/walmart-family-mobile-apn-settings/ but that didn't help. FWIW I note that that's one of two Gateway IP addresses mentioned at https://www.myfamilymobile.com/Supp...d94-457c-90a3-7c8b7ac7b1f8#GeneralFAQ-Answer5.
Any ideas?
One thing I'm wondering... where I can I enter in the gateway and DNS info into Android? The Family Mobile site provides that info but I see no way to enter it into Android.

If its not a field in the APN settings, its not needed.
Make sure (double and triple check) there isn't a single typo. Just a single wrong character in the APN settings can screw up the whole deal. Make sure you haven't mixed up forward versus backslash,
Make sure th APN and SIM works on another device, if possible.
