If you are running AT&T then they have disabled the non-market apps. This is what you need to do to get 2.1 then install z4root.
1. Watch this tutorial.
2. Go here and download the flash tool and the X10a 2.1 world generic.
3. Flash the firmware as in the tutorial.
4. Enable "non-market" apps
5. Install z4root
6. Enjoy!
AWESOME. You rock! I'll let ya know how it goes.
one quick question, do i lose all my contacts when this happens?

Don't forget to enter you APN settings so you can use 3G (its H in the new FW) and MMS.
Go to Settings -> Wireless Controls -> Mobile Networks-> Access Point Names
Add a new APN. Don’t forget to Save the new APN by pressing the “more” button! Once you do this, you must select the newly created Internet APN.
Lastly, make sure there are no extra spaces after entering any of these values, else your 3G (it will show an "H" in the new FW which is 3.5G) won’t work.

Custel has made this pretty easy. He has two cabs located in the windows directory, one that disables the proxy, and one that restores it. You need to run the one that disables it.
In case you cannot find these actual files, go back to Custel's thread, and check, I believe, the 2nd post. He offers a cab to install links for each of them in the programs directory.
Hope this helps. I run his ROM and have no problem at all with my wifi.
Good luck,

Can someone please upload Alltel PRI 1.28. The reason I need it is that it will get rid of my roaming triangle (have a sprint TP converted to Alltel). I found one over at ppcgeeks, but for some reason don't have permission to download it (even though I'm already registered there). And thanks in advance.

Hey thanks for all your help. I really appreciate it.
The last couple of days I have really enjoyed trying out these new roms the Mx2 but I can never get the mms to work. My mx2 is with Bluegrass Cellular and if anyone can share the correct setting I would appreicate it. I have searched and searched and cant seem the find the correct ones.

I too have bluegrass and could not get MMS to work forever. Finally I found the right combination of fixes that works for me (and has been replicated on all my coworkers devices). I am using this on Eclipse 2.3 on my MX2. I do not know if it will work for other carriers or other ROMs. Use at your own risk.
First, you will need root (which you have if you are on a custom rom), and you will need a file explorer that let's you browse with root permissions (I use ES File Explorer with root options set in settings).
Browse to /system/etc/ and replace apns-conf.xml with all the .xml files from the Conf folder in the attached Conf.zip file. I am not sure why there are so many, I copied them from a stock Bluegrass MX2. (Feel free to make a backup of your original apns-conf.xml prior to replacement).
Now, browse to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/ and delete the 3 .db files here. (Again, make a backup if you wish). This will remove your existing text messages off your device!
Restart your device.
Now download "APN Settings Shortcut" from the Play Store. This is not an app or widget, but an actual shortcut. Press and hold on an empty space on your home screen and choose Shortcut and then APN Settings Shortcut.
Once it opens, hit menu and then new. Populate all fields with the following settings:

Self Bumping an old post so that anyone still in need can get some additional for ICS roms.
You can edit the APN information on ICS roms (or at least the latest CM9 Beta) by opeing Voice Dialer (it is a preinstalled app) and saying:
A P Ns
Then choose Open APNs. Hit the menu button and choose new, then enter the same information listed above. Hit the menu button again and choose save. Reboot and enjoy MMS on ICS.
There are the steps I used to fix mms on the Evo 3d / VM with Jellybean- YMMV.
1) Install AO[SK]P Rom of your choice (I used Cyanogen Gangnam style 12/16) UPDATE (1/5) - this doesn't seem to work with the 1/3 vm shooter build
2) Optional - Flash GAPPS
3) remove the systems messaging app (there are probably multiple ways to do this, but I used titanium backup, and uninstalled the app)
4) reboot to recovery, and flash the zip file from here
http://androidforums.com/evo-v-4g-a...k-full-mms-fix-cm-aosp-aokp-thanks-wolfu.html
5) reboot, and then delete the /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db and telephony.journal
6) PROFIT
If there are other methods that work - please feel free to add them to the thread.
Hope this helps someone - this was the only thing holding me back from JB.

Use the built in file manager app change the settings to root mode access and browse to that directory path.

I did as you said, and so far nothing. Just wondering though, why you said to delete those two files? Since the link suggests mms should work without that necessity.
EDIT: Nevermind it works. No need to know how/why really. Although it seems that it's so your phone can create its own. Nonetheless, thanks!
No longer necessary on my ROM as I've fixed MMS at compile time.

I'm pretty sure this doesn't work with dastin's current build (19 Jan), and I can't seem to get MMS working on this build. I'll upload a logcat if it will help, but I'm still testing things out. Gangnam is awesome, the MMS is the only tough selling point for me, if I can figure this out I'll be so happy

What ROM are you using? Some variant of stock?
I'm having calling issues in the various CM versions I've tried.
edit - the GSM version of the GPE ROM works fine though. Flashed it with Danvdh's VZ kernel.
Originally on stock of1 but just flashed stang5litre but the method worked on both.
So I have to root to get MMS on to get the VZW S4 to work on T-Mobile correct?

Yes sir!
I get a screen which says "Device Locked". the message goes on to explain this is likely because the phone has been locked down by manufacturer (carrier?) and even rooted devices can have problems due to SELinux restrictions.

If you see that message it's because the su binary is not high enough. Install the apk in the same folder that is linked in the OP, open supersu and update if needed then try again after rebooting.

Check under your mobile network settings, make sure network mode isn't set to global. It should say gsm/umts. You may want to re apply settings after changing modes. I noticed the global setting screwed up my tmobile settings so hopefully it's related to your issues.(fingers crossed)

I followed your guide for my dad's verizon s4 but I am running into some problems.
I rooted it following the root guide linked earlier in this thread and root is successful. SuperSu is installed and root checker verified.
However, in my APN settings, under APN Type, i have to manually type in "Internet+MMS", and the under APN Protocol, the only choices are ipv4, ipv6, ipv4/ipv6.
Also, when I open the advanced signal status app, do i select the LTE/GSM (PRL), is that what you meant?
edit: even just selecting GSM auto (prl), i still cant get 3g, 4g, or LTE. Only edge.

Having to manually enter your apn type is normal. I have "internet, mms, supl" typed into mine. The problem you are having with the app being locked is because your version of the su binary isn't correct. Install the supersu app that is included in the OP. Before doing anything else you will need to open the newly installed supersu app and allow the binary to update. After it has updated immediately reboot and it should no longer be locked. Also back under the APN settings, don't mess with the ipv4/ipv6 settings. Just leave them at default.
When I get to APN protocol, it's not giving me the option "WAP 2.0".... Only IPv4, IPv6, and then IPv4/IPv6.
Also not giving me the option to save the newly created APN. What to do next?

Sorry about the APN, I copied it but didn't proof read.
I have mine set to IPV4/IPV6. To save the APN you need to press the menu key then select save.

At the bottom of the tutorial is a link to a google drive folder with two apk files. Download them and open them on your phone to start the install. After installing "supersu.apk" click open and accept the upgrade, click normal when asked what method to use then reboot when it prompts. The lock will be gone.

Great, thanks alot man that actually worked perfectly. Another question though... so in order to do what we just did, You have to have absolute root access to your phone right? i opened a terminal emulator app and notice that i still have the dollar sign on the command line. But when i run "su", it has the hash symbol which i'm assuming means i'm root now or at least have root privileges. Shouldn't i have had the hash symbol as soon as i started the emulator? does this mean my su binary is still not high enough?
