Most likely not, you would need to find a modified Systemui with modified icons

well thst sucks but thax for the response

jobe41,
question for you, how did you convert your sprint S6 to metro? Can you point me in the direction of the info you used to do this? I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

It will work and it will display proper pngs for h+/3g, most if not all oem frameworks retain gsm capable pngs inside systemui as they are used when the device is used internationally(when unlocked by sprint).

I currently have the same problem and super bummed that mine only rocks with either GSM or 3g. I tried playing with the apn setting like now I'm on lte but I can't make or receive phone calls (for the apn I put the bearer at lte changed network to lte/cmda) but if someone needs to talk well thats not gonna work. I figured since I can that setting why wouldn't I be able to have lte all the time. I was advised that I might have better luck with a Verizon phone as opposed to the sprint version. Any thoughts or assistance would be great thanks in advance!

Request: METROPCS ROM for Samsung Epic

hi guys can anyone please try to make a rom for metropcs that will have everything working like internet/ picturemail just after flashing the rom and updating the APN ????
i am willing to donate to whoever willing to help making this happen
thank you guys
You don't need a rom,. And all of the information about the carrier and device is not inside the roms. You should probably take a look at other threads about changing the phones carrier.

i have set all the settings needed with the correct calculated password for metropcs web through qpst.
ipushed the u2nl, telephony, apn, autostart.apk, autostart.sh, but still not working.
i have the 3g bars going up and down but can't connect.
i tried 4 different rooted roms including stock but still i can't get it to work.
i even tried the metro3.0 and 3.5 patch that was made for the eris but still no go.
what else do i need to do?
there is got to be a way. There is guys charging $70 to flash it to metro.
I have never seen an epic 4g in metropcs with web working, and as long as I know, there is currently no know way to do it.

Holy thread resurrection Batman!!!
Moved to Q&A.
I was wondering if anyone could post a walk through on how to flash the Epic 4G to Metro PCS? Seems like the only phone that doesn't have one. I don't care how, video, text, whatever. I'm trying to save myself $140 bucks.
try this

No Data on cm10

Hi all Got a little issue here running cm10 just flashed from ics looks great runs smooth great job guys but here is the problem no data? I have my epic 4g touch flashed to metro pcs I went thru the instructions several times have wiped everything started over numerous times but still no data. The icons don't come on or anything. At this point I am stuck I have pretty good knowledge on how things work around here if someone can take a moment and point me in the right direction I would be very grateful. I saw another post on no data on cm9 and claims doing a nandroid back up from previous rom then flashing the restoring works but that did not work either was very brief in what he had done so description wasn't very clear. So that I can get a good reply this is exactly what I have at this point: SPH-d710 phone Android ver.4.1.1 Baseband Fh23 Kernel ver. #.).15-cm-g4471ee1 [email protected]#1 CyanogenMod 10-20120901-unofficial-d710 Flashed metro pcs with everything working talk txt web mms. Again Thank you all for any help in this matter these guys do some great stuff and would like to use this software. Keep up the great work guys.
To get data working on non-TW ROMs you have to replace a few files in the ppp folder. I don't have the Metro PCS files though, I only have the Cricket files

Do you have a description on how you did that on cricket and I can look for the metro files needed? Or a link would be helpful?

Sorry for the REALLY late reply.
This is the thread that lead me in the right direction: http://www.cricketusers.com/sprint-samsung-galaxy-sii-epic-4g-touch/32209-web-cm9.html
And this is the post with the flashable zip: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22162851&postcount=10
It says it works for "alternate carriers" but I'm on Cricket so I'm not sure if it'll work for Metro PCS. You can give it a shot though. Let me know how it goes.
Trying it now thanks will keep you posted on what my findings are thanks again for the pointer fingers crossed.
Was a no go thanks tho hopefully one of the developers will be able to point me in the right direction. Thanks again
Maybe look through this thread? (http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-all...-evo-all-info-here-rom-metrogenmod-7-1-a.html)
Edit: You could try the AOSP web script from this thread also (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=795182)
I have the exact same problem but am now on blue kuban for the same reason... if you find a solution let us know i might try cm10 again
I will do some research and update you all on the outcome thanks again for the info
Ok looks like I may have to go into qpst and edit my internet settings but have ran into a snag on cm10 cant get the program to recognize the phone if I could get it to pick up the phone then I can reedit the settings for my data to work but like I said at a snag. Will update as soon as I can figure it out or something changes on the rom to access the modem. Any help would be appreciated.
just flashed cm10 will try something out also after thursday when i have time after school

SOLVED flashed the zip on Paranoidandorid 4.1.1 works like a charm thank you your awsome have a nice day :laugh:
Found a answer
Ok boys and girls I found the stepping stones to how to make this work now mind you I am still working on it. This is what I have done thus far I went to playstore downloaded apn shortcut as soon as it hits your home screen you can click on it and change your apn settings to whatever carrier you are on then I went to my dialer and typed as follows *#*#4636#*#* this opens a window if you scroll down some you will see it say something other than cdma what you want there is auto cdma (prl) as soon as I did this the data came on now Im not in a good signal area but it came on it only showed 1x tho I do not know if that is because of my area. If anyone can test that and let me know we might have made progress and if I am doing something wrong feel free to tell me what it is. Again any help in this matter is greatly appreciated and if this helps don't forget to say thanks lots of long nights trying to figure this out. :good:
Ok figured out
Finally success the only issue is I'm only getting 1x I flashed the alternative carrier fix then I went to the dailer and typed in *#*#4636#*#* then scrolled down and changed the setting to cdma prl auto and data started working so now Im trying to get answers on 3g coming on sorry took so long to figure out Im still learning myself if you guys need the link I can post it if necessary. Also when you go in and change the setting to cdma prl auto you mayhave to click it a couple times for it to stick it may change itself to unknown just click it againg to cdma prl auto again til you get the data going and then it will stick. If this helps don't forget to say thanks
Lol didn't realize we were on page two didn't see your post I guess my question now is is your 3g working?

Successfully manually ported Tmobile Alliance ROM to Verizon Note 4 Dev Edition

Hello Devs!
stedrocklp and I are in the process of getting tmobile alliance beta ROM to work on Verizon note 4 dev edition. I can make and receive calls, receive sms, send and receive mms, 4G LTE and WiFi works. Really not much had to be done to get the Verizon data status icons and mms to work. The only real problem is getting sms to send. Please check my thread in the question and answers section on xda Verizon note 4 to see what was already attempted. Please let us know if you have any suggestions.
Thanks in advance !

UPDATE: I hear the crickets in this thread but just wanted to give an update that I got sms to work and a whole lot more lol. Maybe this knowledge can help port ROMs to any snapdragon note 4? Give me some feedback and let me know what you guys think.

Anyone using Note 4 and Cyanogenmod or AOSP on Ting network?

Hello,
I'm thinking about getting a used Note 4 and activating it on Ting. I know the phone is supported on Ting, but haven't found much info about running a non-stock rom. Anybody tried this?
Having to stay on Touchwiz would not do....
Thanks!
Mike
