Been trying that with no luck! ;(
The EVO 3D was my last device and I did all the settings myself... But, the Epic Touch S2 seems a little trickier but, I think i'm just missing something simple!
All help is appreciated

i currently have an epic touch and also can not get mms to work. i believe a modded mms.apk is needed.

MMS
MAKE SURE YOUR WEB IS WORKING PROPERLY (ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS) AS YOU CAN'T HAVE MMS WITHOUT WORKING INTERNET!!!!!
Remove/Uninstall any existing MMS composer you have attempted to setup. Also a good idea to remove any registry keys it may have created that are left behind after the uninstall.
1: Install Arcsoft MMS version 5.0.70.24 from Verzion.
2: Open your Messaging and click on the SMS/MMS option.
3: Click on "Menu" and select "MMS Options" then select the "Servers" tab.
4: Add a new server with the following settings:
Server Name: metropcs
Gateway: wap.metropcs.net
Port number: 3128
Server address: http://mms.metropcs.net:3128/mmsc
Connect via: SELECT EITHER THE CONNECTION YOU SETUP ABOVE OR "The internet"
Send limit: 399K
5: Click "Done" and then set the new server as default.
6: Using a Registry Editor edit the following values:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1\WspHeader]
DELETE KEY -> "X-VzW-MDN"
ADD STRING -> "X-metropcs-MDN"="XXXXXXXXXX" ( Insert your 10 digit phone Number )
ADD STRING -> "X-DEVICE-MIN"="1XXXXXXXXXX" ( Insert your 10 digit phone Number WITH the 1 in front of it )

Use this guide to get MMS for Metro. Replace the mms.apk as directed. Do Not remove the telephony.db file(dont replace or delete). Go to voice Dialer, say open APN. Create MetroPcs apn with these [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1288216"][URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1288216"]settings[/URL][/URL](. For the record I used CleanGB Rom 1.0 - EI22 Modem.
If you should encounter any difficulty after rom flashes, make sure your prl is current. I ran across a problem earlier that stumped me for a bit, airplane mode would toggle on/off and became frustrated to no end.
MetroPCS APN Settings Guide:
These are settings provided to help users with MMS, and 3G.
It works with Most roms. Tested and Confirmed on Swagged Out Stock.
1.Flash an MMS script compatible with your rom. (Scripts created By Bloodykiller86)
MetroPCS Evo Sense 4.53 Based MMS Script v1.5
MetroPCS Sense 2.1/3.0 Hybrids MMS & Web Script v2
MetroPCS Evo AOSP Script v5
MetroPCS Evo MIUI MMS Script v1
2.Download APN Manager from the Android Market.
3.Create a new APN and enter these settings:
APN: internet
Proxy: wap.metropcs.net:3128
Port: 3128
UserName: Phone#@mymetropcs.com
Password: MSL code*
Server: wap.metropcs.net
MMSC: http://mms.metropcs.net:3128/mmsc
MMS Proxy: wap.metropcs.net
MMS Port: 3128
MCC: 310
MNC: 004
APN Type: MMS
4. Download Any Cut from the Android Market, then create an activity, apns on your homescreen.
Open apns choose MetroPCS and edit then authentication type to pap or chap. If no APN exists create a new one and fill it in with the info above.
-Make sure to enable created APN in APN Manager.
-Also if your MMS still isn't working make sure the metropcs.sh file from the script is in the correct place, if it is execute it. If It's not etract it from the script, and place it in the root of the internal memory, set permissions, and then execute it.
*If you want to figure of your MetroPCS MSL code check out whiterabbit.org

Thanks for the suggestions brianhot1 but the first suggestion is for window's mobile phones. I use to use that method back in the day and it does work but not for android's. Second method has correct apn settings but the modded mms.apk is for htc evo. It would not be compatible with a samsung epic touch as android version and and rom play a factor into making a modded mms.apk. Hopefully i will find a way to get it working soon tho.

Just get ur mms apk. Get apktool decompile nd edit mms.config

thanks for pointing me in the right direction! I got apktool now and i go to decompile the original mms.apk and it gives me an error message at the end that i need to install the specific framework for my phone. I used root explorer to get them onto my laptop. Just stuck on installing them now.

Flashed tablets before, but never a phone to switch carriers. I have my eyes on the same solution being discussed here - Samsung Epic Touch 4G on MetroPCS. Is the solution Brian provided the standard steps needed to flash any android device or does it differ between specific models?

[Wondering]
Hey can't I just make an app for it?
You using Eclipse you can just make a messaging app.
Wouldn't I just be able to add the MetroPCS APN settings to it?

[Q] Change Carrier Name on Stock Rom

Okay so i am wondering is there a way to change the carrier name on a stock or custom ROM, Ive already tried the QPST, and CDMA WS Methods and neither work weather it be the stock ROM or a custom ROM.
.
On the stock ROM the carrier name is blank when in CDMA Mode, except when i switch to GSM only it shows T-Mobile, and on all of the custom roms it only shows my MCC and MNC ie 310012.... is there a way to modify this that i haven't thought of?

Do you want to change the banner?
Or do you want to change your network provider?

yes i am looking to change the carrier name on the lock screen and notification curtain, i've already Provisioned the Device to Cricket....seeing how their 3G is faster than VZW in my area...

yea i would prefer to do it on a stock ROM, due to the fact that most of the custom roms Ive tried don't have the ability to switch to GSM on the fly

It depends on your ROM. With CM7 access is under
Settings - CyanogenMod settings - interface - status bar tweaks
I found a way to do it in terminal emulator on my old OG Droid a long time ago. Good keyword for your search is "carrier banner"
Good luck!

Make sure you APN is matching your carrier's LTE APN.

There is an app called Phone Info that allows you to enter to that secret menu
Search it in google
BTW, it didnt worked for me (I have TELCEL too) but maybe it will work for you...
Using AOSP roms like Cyanogenmod or task AOKP worked for me...

I had the same problem. Seems it does not automatically detect the carrier id. We have to insert it into the MCC and MNN manually
To get the id of the carrier:
Dial in the phone *#*#197328640#*#*, will get a menu of service, choose the followin options
[1] DEBUG SCREEN
[5] GPRS INFORMATION
FInally, look for the PLMN info, in my case is:
PLMN 708-2(0)
So:
MCC: 708
MNC: 020
with this data "Save" feature works

I skipped from 10.1 straight to 11, but none of the ROMs I've run ever had an issue detecting MCC/MNC. I found it interesting because my carrier gives those on their website, as if the phone isn't normally able to figure it out on its own.

At&t 4g lte icon on tmobile note 4

Well I got the lollipop at&t 4g lte icon product name from TEKHD and it works good and i noticed it also takes off the sfinder and quick connect.
If you guys wanna try it out you need build.prop and edit this two lines and reboot.
ro.product.name=trlteuc
ro.product.device=trlteatt

All I had to change was product.name=to trlteatt nothing else unless your on Canadian firmware

This has actually been posted and discussed before in several forums. You can also try
trltevzw - verizon
Trltespr - sprint
Trltexx - international
And a few more that I can't think of right now.

do I need to be rooted to do this? i tryed but it is read only.

Build.prop editor works best with root.
Is there a wat I can get the LTE icons and kill "ATT" like in Gravity Box. I'm on TEK rom and love it, but the carrier text tweak is not killing the "ATT"

One thing that tripped me up was the persistent gap in the layout. In a Doh moment I figured out it was the spot for the download booster ucin, typically shut off.

Working, thanks a lot. All i changed was product name too

Along with the build prop edits you must also change the sale_code.dat file in the csc folder from tmo to att. Works on the latest Tek rom. I'm using one from a stock Att Rom, but editing the file with file explorer, etc..may work as well.

I'd like to see screen captures of the different logos....they may all suck? LOL

Does changing these files have any effect on anything other than just icons? Would changing tmo to vzw affect any other things because of gsm/cdma differences?

on my side, i have a sm-n910w8 wich is a canadians version....it worked perfectly!! i alway liked to have the carrier id on the status bar (i"m a rare one i guess loll) it didn"t change anything about the gsm/cdma thing...

well....have installed marshmallow on my note 4......have tested to see if we still able to change the data icon...and onm my side on stock rom android 6 i"m not able anymore to change anything....i change the ro.product.name and the sale_code.dat and it change nothing???? somebody have tested it to see???
thanks.......

Is this possible with MM 6.0.1 n910t?
Sent from my SM-N920G using XDA-Developers mobile app

should have made an update since my last thread......i"ve marshmallow on my note 4...you can"t change the build.pro to have for example the at&t data icon since marshmallow is still not available for the note 4....this is why the build.pro change mod doesn"t work......

Well.....saw that att upgraded finally the note 4 to marshmallow....have made a trie to have the att data icon by the build.prop.....it didn't worked.....maybe i made something wrong?? Someone had succes to make the change?
Thanks in advance.........
