Carrier: Alltel
Started with WM5 ROM.
Flashed to DCD's 2.1 WM6 ROM last week, no issues noted.
Yesterday flashed to 2.2 WM6.1 ROM and now whenever I get a data session going in a strong EVDO area I get dropped down to 1x when the data session finishes connecting?
I've moved back to 2.1, used no2chems 6.1 ROM and back to DCD's 6.1 ROM. Same problem all around now.
Radio problem maybe? Or user? If radio, anyone get me a link to the original 1.4?
Thanks in advance if anyone has any tips, I've tried looking around but only find people with MMS or other issues.
---------------------
This solution apparently only works for Alltel customers, if anyone finds solutions for Sprint/Verizon/Telus I'll add the solution to this post.
ALLTEL:
1. Enter EPST (##778), Edit (password= 000000).
2. View Info (left soft key).
3. Choose the "Security" item.
4. In the "HDR AN AUTH Password(LONG)" field, click to highlight.
5. Menu (right soft key), Edit
6. In the "Value" field, enter your Hex ESN (make sure all characters are CAPITAL, lowercase will FAIL).
7. Ok. Menu. Ok to save, then reset.

Hey in case you guys are still having problems with this, I can tell you what worked for me with Sprint.
You'll need your unlock code, if you don't have it, you've gotta get it from either Sprint or from one of the tutorials i've seen floating around here and other forums.
1. Sync your titan to back up your data.
2. ##786# Choose edit, enter your unlock code, then choose menu>restore. This will reset everything to factory settings.
3. Reset
3. ##UNLOCKCODE# Again choose edit.
4. Both MDN and MSID should be your wireless number (this was confirmed by Sprint T2 tech support)
5. Reset
6. Call your voicemail to make sure your phone service is working.
7. Connect to the internet. It should trigger IOTA/Provisioning and then EVDO should be working.
8. Resync your **** and you're good to go.
Hope this helps, it worked for me.

I think with Alltel you get 1x when roaming. Do *228 option 3 < Thats to activate your phone if you haven't already
Then do *228 option 2 to update your roaming preferences which ridded me of roaming in coverage area!

Thanks for the response, I've been through that already and same results...
I even went back to the stock Alltel ROM and Radio, same thing.
With PRL 30029 AND 40029...
Oh well, I'll figure something out as I love the speed of DCD's 2.2!!!!

Did you check Start->Settings->Personal->Phone->Services->Mode of Operation to make sure it wasn't set to 1X only? I think that was the default setting on my phone.
I had this same problem, and then I reflashed with the 3.16 sprint rom twice and it went away.
Appreciate the responses, but I don't have the "Mode of Operation" on my Alltel 6800. And I've reflashed all kinds of ROMs with no luck...
Thanks for the ideas though...

With the newest Advanced Config app, you can unhide the "mode of operation" option in there. I got it from here somewhere, do a search. I doubt this is your issue. I had this problem yesterday with Sprint. I got data in 1xRTT, but not EVDO. I ended up calling Sprint and they had to deactivate and reactivate the internet services on my phone. Immediately it worked like a champ.
I had this problem also and was able to take care of it by going into EPST (##778) and going under the security settings and putting the ESN Hex Value of Your Phone under the HDR Password. Mine got lost whenever I upgraded the radio. This will allow you to lock back onto the EVDO network

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
That did the trick (after I did it a second time and made the letters capital) and now I'm cruising EVDO style!!
Thanks!!!!
Hi I have this same issue.
i typed ##778 send
and get the view, edit , and cancel options.
do i find the hdr password under the edit?
when i choose edit, i get a password prompt and i do not know the password.
i am on dcd rom 2.2.0
i edited mine, and it does get on ev instead of 1x so i was glad but when i opened ie i cant get a data connection up now at all???

I just checked and I have a bunch of garbled characters in this spot. Does anyone else see something like this?
What did you guys have in that slot before you added your esn hex number?
the password you need is unlock code you can only get from sprint.
i also had the weird characters, i edited these out with my esn hex as mentioned and now i cant get a data connection at all, i get an error that i cannot connect. Anyone with any idea on what i can do?
I thought of downgrading the radio and then installing this one again and starting from scratch any better ideas?
My HDR password is also extended ASCII characters, has been for every ROM version I have run, and I get EVDO and on the Internet as well. I thought that was a problem when I had no data connection from a previous ROM, but it wasn't.
What worked for me was to go all the way back to the official 2.17, then to the leaked 3.16, etc. I made sure everything was set up and working properly on each version before moving on to another ROM.

Again, I'm on Alltel so maybe for some unknown reason there is more to it for you Sprint users.
But, my MDR Password field was goofy stuff, deleted it and put in my Hex ESN in ALL CAPITALs and I stay at EVDO when my data connection is made now.
Deleted MDR PASSWORD and put esn hex, internet not working
ok guys i messed up pretty badly and deleted the MDR password and put my esn hex instead and now i cant get on the net.
I have an HTC TITAN running DCD 2.2 and latest 3.27 radio
any suggestions on how to get the password back????

yes i also have a bunch of giberish in there. i am afraid to change it becuase there will be no way for me to put that giberish back in there with all those weird looking characters.
i found the edit password which was a bunch of 00000 as many as the field would take
and i understand some people now get ev but no data connection now. i am on verizon and i dont know if that will happen to me as well.
my connection now says ev and doesnt change back to 1x anymore so i am going to leave this as is for now and not change it.
also my a-key is blank if that makes a difference. phone works fine though.

Hi, excuse me my english, i am from Venezuela, i can flash my Titan with Titan Reloaded 1.42b2 it works fine , but i can't use Evdo data service, i can connect but i can't open a web or use MSN, before i tested others Roms and i can use my service data anyone know about this:
"Remember to add your Carrier CAB after loading!! (well if you have data service anyways)
Link to dcd1182 Carriers cab's.. Thanks dcd..
DCD Carriers CABs"
I try with Verizon and sprint cab, but only happens the same, i check my epsc configuration with another phone and my dates are ok, any suggestion??
Who do you pay for your service?
I Can Pay with cards , the company name is Movilnet
Anyone can help me? or any idea? i really need use the EVDO service again, ther are other bugs in this ROMS i can't send files by bluethoot and Beam Neither.
Well, unfortunately, I do not have a good answer for you. DCD has never (as far as I can read through the forums) gotten his hands on a ROM from Movilnet. Since he hasn't gotten a ROM from them, he has not had a way of making a carrier cab for them. The only chance you have now is to hope and pray someone here has a Movilnet carrier cab. If they do not, you might have to return to the place you bought the phone and have them flash it back to the prebuilt carrier ROM. Then you will be able to extract the needed information for the carrier before overwriting it with a custom ROM.
Good luck!

Search for DCD's carrier specific Data.cab . Load that and you should be in business.

Go into your connections folder. Settings-Connections-Connections.
Click Manage Existing Connections.
Then if you have Data Network there, click edit.
Name doesn't matter. Number should be #777. Username should be [email protected]. Pass should be vzw.
Click finish. Hold over the connection and hit connect. See what happens. If it says you have the wrong password try programming your phone via *228. Try option 1 or 2.
Tell me what happens.
Tyler
Verizon or sprint
Is this settings for verizon or sprint?
Haha. Good catch. I forgot you were on Sprint. Sorry, I don't know the correct settings for sprint. But you could still look in the connections section and see if everything that should be filled in, is.

Help
Ya i hope someone does Help anyone who can solve this problem
On the reload 1.3.4 under documents is scott rom pack and after installing it . You can install carrier under documents\scott rom pack\carriers.
All I have ever had to do is install carrier cab and open url. Running iota under phone services after install of carrier cab works also.
Maybe a bad flash?? Have you tried hard reset and reinstall carrier cab?
If you know your [email protected] then you don't have to install carrier cab. You can add connection #777 with user name and password that was set up on your original contract with sprint. Maybe you can call sprint for that, I don't know I never have had to.
Did you change anything under ##778# ?
Thanks alot matt
Also i noticed you had a different radio rom then me and i was wondering if thats better then 3.42.02 and also why is it that you have two roms one that

I have the newest radio version available. Really have not noticed too much difference. I would upgrade though.
I have two roms listed because I can hit the camera button and switch between roms. LOL not really I have two phones.
Oh haha but i just ran into a problem iota works and allows me to use data services, but then if i just leave my phone alone for awhile my data services wont work and i have to run iota again
So i upgraded to win 6.1 then 6.5.
Seeing how it was my first time doing it, i let sprints custom run on 6.1 and now i can not send sms.
Does anyone have a stock 6800 on uscc that i could get the epst settings from ?
I have double checked all of my epst settings but still cant send sms.. I can call out/receive get online and got the gps working but no sms.
using radio 3.42.50
and win 6.5 build 21820 Sprint Mattsm
with the dcd USCC Carrier 20080801 Cab
After searching three different forum.. i wonder if it could be due to the fact i have no value for my a-key in epst ? any idea how to get one ?
so just fyi for others if this happens.. EPIC FAIL !! .. i did not have my SMS turned on for that line, it was my business phone and had forgot to i had uscc disable txt messing on the line.
Woot ! go me after like 4 hours of researching !
Was going to edit the first thread but couldn't
Currently got a T-Mobile HD2 and unlocked it, obviously I only got edge. Issue is I cannot connect to the internet. No Opera, Facebook, Youtube, Email, Weather, nothing.
I get this error when trying to go on Opera: Cannot Connect
Dialed: Cannot connect for an unknown reason. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap settings. If the problem continues, reset your mobile device according to your manufacturer's documentation and try again.
I already reset the phone entirely and still can't connect.
the default mobile data modem is probably set to tmo
settings menu all settings connections connections advanced select network. See what is in teh top dropdown.
T-Mobile Internet
T-Mobile Data
T-Mobile MMS
My Work Network
My ISP
Is there supposed to be one for AT&T? Because this is what I got in the drop down.
Tried using all of the choices in the dropdown menu and none worked. How can I get this internet working on me phone?

you need to manually set up the mms and teh data services for at+t. Search for the settings, and edit the tmo ones rather than creating new, for simplicity

Honestly I would not suggest you look in the TMO section, this is a general data issue that would apply to the TMO version or the standard HD2, you are more likely to find your answers in the standard LEO forum.
strange, two minutes in the tmo section turned up this with a cab claiming to sort the settings, and also these for mms settings
Name AT&T MMS
Server Name....AT&T MMS
Ip Address....wireless.cingular.com
Port number...80
Server Address....http://mmsc.cingular.com
Connect Via....Media Net
Message Size limit....600 (this is the max ATT will allow)
Wap Version....Wap 2.0
and THIS thread claiming to offer another cab with the settings in,
However i wasnt saying to search specifically in there, but from his post history he hasn't been in the tmous section at all. It seems a lot of people with tmous phones just scroll down the first page of xda-dev till they see 'HTC Leo HD2' and stop there without scrolling further down to the ddedicated tmo section below it.

My comment was not meant to stomp on your post sam, just that the standard Leo forum gets a lot more traffic, hence a lot more answers, normally ...
But like you said that info is easy to find , if you google for AT&T mobile data settings, you find the info as well, just was kind of pointing for future reference ....
What about the Auto provider settings when you first insert a sim. When I put my ATT sim in my unlocked import HD2 it told me to choose my carrier "att, tracfone, etc" and it took a few seconds to load. My edge data worked out of the box. I believe this wizard is found under connections in the settings menu.

the regular leo comes with a pretty full list of pre configured networks, i don't think the tmous does.(why would it? supposed to be all for one network.)
however there are connectionsetup cabs floating around, could be worth seeing if it will work on the tmous.
