I know there probably another thread with this issue but as we all know the search function for this site is not great.
I have a T-Mobile Dash (HTC620) and I love WM6.1 but after the install my Wi-Fi worked for a day and then went kaput. Every time I try to go on line it tell me that I need to check my connection. I see the my phone is connected to the network but no cigar. I called and added the Data plan to my service from T-Mobile and even though they told me 2-48hrs(dunno what that is about) I am still stuck.
Please help.

Ok! I will send You a PM to the software you need, that maybe will fix your wifi, just follow the on screen instructions on your mobile device and you PC, almost at the same time! Coming to you!
Post in this thread, please.
Thread will be closed! ty
That's how it can be described, I apologize in advance for the somewhat repeat of the thread (posted over in the Touch Pro 2 CDMA hood) because my TP2 is the verizon version. BUT it's GSM unlocked and I am running with Simple Mobile. I have no problem inputting the settings for the connection... their website has all the info right there. I reboot and everything seems fine and dandy or so I think.
I can send 50% of the time, and receiving I can do only once. Meaning I can receive one MMS and I have that issue where the picture is small. Anything after that gives me an error saying "bad gateway" and then I think I hear it laughing at me. It doesn't matter which ROM I am using. Energy, Blackout, try cooking my own, the stock VZW one... I only use the CDMA ROMS given the phone is CDMA.
Only posting over here due to the fact I am rolling with a GSM carrier. Hence a trainwreck.
Just came to mind, is it possible to experiment with the T-Mobile Touch Pro 2 stock Arcsoft MMS, would need a link to it. Been searching high and low but no luck. Any info to help resolve this issue would be awesome.
I appreciate XDA and all here, this place ROCKS!
This may seem like a counter productive question but I have my reasons. I have seen this happen to my phone when it was supposed to be unlocked. The network unlock code didnt work either. I ended up factory resetting (which was my last resort) the phone to try and get the new sim to work. The network lock screen didnt show up any more.
Anyway, for my own reasons I am trying to reproduce this network lock. How can I put a network lock on my phone ? Or at least display the network unlocking activity ?
Your help is much appreciated.

Let me start by saying I have never Fashed,Rooted, or anything else but use a cell. I hooked up with sprint for 4 S3's and realize now that the service is horrible. There is only two places I go, home and Yuma Arizona and both have zero service. radioshack wants to sell me two signal boosters at a wapping $500.00 and I say BS. I found the PRL numbers but my phone has the update that hides the PRL buttom on the ##3282# screen. I have searched all around and found one post that touched on the subject about needing to flash an app but after that this is all greek to me. I someone can explain the process i would be very appreciative. remember this would have to be very detailed as I am clueless to even begin to flash.
Well first of all, PRLs have absolutely nothing to do with signal. You will get no speed boost unless 800smr is added to the prl AND enabled in your area. Read through the "What is a PRL" article in the first of the two links below
Every Sprint PRL (read through this carefully, and find out what a PRL is and is NOT)
As for the PRL write function, go to xda-university, user section, read up on what a recovery is and how to flash zips
Next, go to the following thread and download the latest one, it works for MB1 as well even though it doesnt say it
To flash that zip and add the PRL write function, you need to be rooted
If you dont wanna root, Digiblur has a guide on how to put on a specific PRL through a computer in the link^ above
Flashable zip to enable PRL writing on MA4 and up:

Did you not look at the coverage maps before signing up?
If your service sucks at home, you can call sprints customer service and probably get a free airwave. It's like a mini cell tower that piggy backs off a broadband internet connect which you would have to have.
You can try updating your profile. Last but not least i believe you have 15 day period to return everything.

Also search...there are plenty of threads on this.
Hello, I am new here but have intermediate experience with devices.
Alright time to throw everyone for a loop lol, hopefully someone can help me out.
Here is my problem:
My phone is not connected to a network.
Here is what I have:
Samsung Galaxy S III with Metro PCS (NOT rooted, and with latest PRL and software updates)
What happened:
I woke up yesterday to find my phone not on Metros network, and not on a partner network. My 4G still works though, I can access internet but just can not call/txt or receive either.
In Settings > About Device > Status, here are some of the satus'...
Network: Searching for Service
Signal Strength: -93dBm 47asu
Mobile Network Type: LTE:14
Service State: Out of Service
Roaming: Not Roaming
My Phone Number: Unknown
Min: Unknown
PRL Version: 0
Things I've Done So Far:
Contacted Metro through phone support and Facebook support, neither could help fix the problem.
Took my phone into a Metro store and they wont honor a repair since my screen has a hairline crack in the screen. (which I will also say, they noted that already on my account...)
I've already went to *#22745927 and enabled the hidden menu multiple times (cause it disables with each restart) and I've went to **772 to view my MDN and MSID (MIN) and the MDN shows nothing and MSID has a 10 digit number (that's not the right number for my account), so I tried to edit them to the numbers that I know are correct and after I hit done, the phone restarts but then when it comes back on, nothings changed, and when viewing **772 again, the numbers don't save in the fields.
I know *#197328640# lets you access the service menu, but I don't really feel like touching any of that and making things worse (unless someone knows how to fix this issue through the service menu then ill do it)
Now that my long winded speech is done, its your turn to try and solve this dilemma and help me out please
I hope this is the right section to post in, sorry if it is not.
Thanks in advance to any help ^^ if anyone's got any other questions, ill try to answer them best as I can.

Did you IMEI change? Check if it's 004999010640000
1.) Wrong forum. You have a US Version of the S3. Not the international... Ask a mod to move it.
2.) Don't quote the WHOLE OP. Especially if you're the first flipping person to reply!

I'll bump it once more, since its now been moved to the correct forum.
The IMEI question is still relevant, is it intact? But from what your saying it sounds like you have the old metro s3 model, meaning it's a cdma device not gsm like ours. You probably need to be in Sprints forum as their fixes for this kind of problem will likely be different than ours. I can already tell your dialer codes are different....

First of all thanks for posting
and the IMEI is fine and is there.
I got the GS3 from Metro the first day it came out.
Ok, it's probably the SCH-R530? model. Since T-Mobile bought metro they now have the SGH-T999N. The original one for them was a variant of Sprints if I remember right.
I'd just copy your OP here into a new thread there. They'll probably be better able to help than most people here.
