Thank you to m4f1050 for pointing me in the right direction!
This is used to change the PPP user ID so that you can switch to another CDMA provider and use their data plans. Normally if you try to change the User ID to (ESN)@new.carrier.com, the phone will revert back to (ESN)@mdata.vmobl.com upon reboot. If you follow these directions, the settings should stick. This was created for the Optimus V but it will most likely work for other phone with the same issue.
Warning: Do not do this unless you understand the consequences. You will lose access to your VM data plan by doing this. You will need to change your User ID back if you want to use VM again.
Download QXDM and QPST.
Install both QPST and QXDM.
Follow the steps found here to get your MSL code and to configure QPST. You can stop at step 8 of "Update your PRL". As a last resort, if the previous method fails, you can get your MSL code by following this.
Download these rar'ed text files: Qualcomm.rar
Unrar them and place them inside C:\Users\Public\Documents\Qualcomm\QXDM\Vendor\Qualcomm\
Overwriting the original files. If they fail to overwrite the files, right click Diag.txt, select properties and uncheck "read only". Do the same for NVItem,txt.
Open QXDM Professional
If your phone isn't already recognized and connected, Go to Options > Communications and select the appropriate Target Port. This will be the port you configured in step 2.
Once connected, under view, select NV Browser.
Scroll all the way down to item 39939 and select it. The lower half of the window should show a list of values.
Hit read. Take note of the values in case you want to reverse what we are doing, and then turn them all to zero under "input". You edit them by double clicking them
Hit Write.
Next, without touching anything else, open QPST Service Programming.
Select Read, enter your MSL from step 2. An error will pop up, but ignore it.
Edit M.IP and PPP Config - AN entries to your desire.
Hit Write and Enjoy!
After you do this once, you can change your User ID by starting with step 12. You do not need QXDM any more.
doesn't seem to work for me. 39939 is empty

I plan to use a regular Evdo dumb-phone (not an Android) as a donor. Is it even possible?
got it to change but still no internet on VM. I am converting sprint Optmimus s to virgin mobile .. but I haven't been able to get data to work. I am now able to change the MIP settings but the first profile always gets enable and the 3 disable. I can change the 1profile to anything now with tutorial, just not able to disable it.

Hi everyone, PLEASE READ PLEASE READ STEP BY STEP i was reading and a lot of people have questions about going to metropcs and nobody give them really good help, so i decided to make this post for you guys but please please do not post me asking how to do it in other htcs phone or worst in samsungs, lgs, etc etc I AM DOING IT THIS ONLY FOR HTC RAPHAEL or 6850 or touch pro cdma what ever you want to call it. ok so lets get start it. you have either two options:
1. Install the Hard-SPL (to unlock the phone), Install custom radio, Install custom rom, Install and modify files to make it work in Metropcs internet,mms etc. and finally take it to metropcs pay between $40 to $60 box so they flash it and you have already the phone working with everything. (recommened for dummies)
2. Install the Hard-SPL (to unlock the phone),Install custom radio Install custom rom, Install and modify files to make it work in Metropcs internet,mms etc. and Flash the HTC 6850 Touch Pro MEID and ESN to Clone the phone (i assume you have one phone already working on metropcs and you dont want to use the phone anymore so you clone it hehehehe.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.Option. Download this file first:
http://www.4shared.com/file/140639926/7fa190d6/TP_ESN_FILES2.html
Important:
first, if you have GSM Touch Pro/Raphael (NOT CDMA, NOT SPRINT/VERIZON/ALLTEL/TELUS/BELL), this will brick your device.
to download a compatible hardspl package for gsm touch pro you can go to forum.xda-developers.com.
but if you have CDMA Touch Pro/Raphael, then you have to use this hardspl, not the one at xda-developers!!!
preparations before flash:
1) make sure you have .NET framework installed on your PC! if not, get it from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en
2) if you have vista, WMDC update is recommended: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobi...ce-center.mspx
3) now decide which Hard-SPL you want to flash. if you have Verizon, flash VZW package (from verizon attachment). if you have Sprint, Telus or Alltel or Bell, flash default package (Raphael_CDMA_HSPL_037.zip).
instructions:
1) extract Hard-SPL Raphael_CDMA_HSPL_037.zip
2) you must Have Phone Synced with PC in Windows Mobile!
3) run HardSPL exe that you extracted before.
4) follow steps in the RUU, and check on the device for prompts after PC shows loading bar.
5) it should go to tricolour screen now and say 0.37.C-SSPL or for Verizon devices it should say 0.35-C-SSPL.
6) SPL flashes, device automatically reboots, job done.
7) to confirm you got it installed, go into bootloader mode (tricolour screen!) and verify the screen shows 0.37.CMONEX MFG.
NOTE: you will not see the SPL version during normal boot, that is the OS version, not SPL!
to enter bootloader mode to see version: with the device turned on, press and hold the volume down button along with the power button, then press the reset button with the stylus tip, then release the volume down and power buttons when bootloader tricolour screen appears.
NOTE 2: anyone having problems with the device entering SSPL automatically, please copy SSPLManual.exe from the SSPLManual.zip attachment to the device and run it. then once the screen is in SSPL, run RUU manually. i.e. you run the RUU on the PC, if it isn't obvious.
make sure to get SSPL-Manual specifically for Verizon phones from the verizon package.
NOTE 3: this is unsigned Hard-SPL. no limitations on flashing ROMs or radio packages. also, this has overwrite protection, if someone needs to revert to stock SPL for warranty reasons, a stock SPL downgrade package is also available here.
NOTE 4: do not use this RUU to flash anything else! this is only intended for flashing the Hard-SPL.
NOTE 5: use Relocker *only* if you need to return the phone for warranty. only use it as last step - after reflashing stock OS and radio. Default relocker is for Sprint etc, Raphael_CDMA_VZW_Relocker in the verizon package is for Verizon touch pro's.

Next.Next.
we need to install the Radio, (make sure the phone is recognized by microsoft sync) i relized that the better one out there for metropcs is Telus v1.04.05V thats why i put it in my rar file.
1. extract Telus v1.04.05V and run ROMUpdateUtility
2. install it
3. when is done make sure the radio is v1.04.05V (in the dilaler press menu then press phone information and look for Radio.)
Next.
Install the rom of your chooise.I recommend for metropcs either mightyrom
(http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=52695) or NFSFAN's Custom WM6.5 ROMs (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=516509) a lot of people ask for a custom rom for metropcs and thats not necesary to have almost every raphael cdma rom out there is compatible with metropcs.

He doesn't even have a paypal link on the bottom of the posting. I have my TouchPro on metropcs fully functioning from multiple links on ppcgeeks and xda-developers. Thanks to many.

Metro WAP
It wont let me install the metro wap, I had the phone flashed to metro pcs first, when I did the step where you had to browse to find the prl file, it wouldn't show it, so I didn't do that part, so I installed the metro wap thing to the phone and installed and the phone says they cannot be installed after it tries to install for a little! Help me pleeeaasse!

If you had the phone flashed to metropcs all you have to do is input the Metro WAP settings. I did not use a cab file. First HardSPL, Archsoft MMS, then change WAP settings, and the registry.
wap
Yeah I tried inputting all the settings, then creating a new connection called metro pcs with all the port settings and stuff, which I don't even see on this guide. Because if you don't create a new connection, it wont do anything once I removed the sprint connection which I did by changing the guardian file, which allowed me to even remove it. But I was hoping that this program would I guess populate that stuff somehow, so I went through and manually put in all those settings. Still no connection
ok
ok you can do it this way put your phone in dial mode ##3424# wait until white screen turns off and open workshop 2.7 from mteropcs.rar you have to go other tab under PRL choose write and select the ppl file
when you open the browser a window will apear you have to write your [email protected] and metropcs as password
note u set this up ##778# edit Mip default profile thank u

Wap
You're gonna hate me but cdma workshop only goes up to like com25, and the htc device automatically sets itself to com63 regardless of what usb port i put it in. I tried to change it but it shows all the previous ports being used.
hard way
ok you can try this out i have not try it so i dont know if it would work first go to control panel, then system hardware, device manager click universal serial bus controllers and unistall all of them restart your pc and it would install back the usb drivers then connect the phone diag mode if doesnt ask for drivers go to control panel, then system hardware, device manager go to ports( com & lpt) you should see htc diagnostic port if the port is below 27 we are fine if not delete all of them but do not unistall com 1. dont worry it will delete ports that u install thins when u plug things u have to install again so don worry. now if the phone ask you for drivers once u delete everything install them again but this time if still port higher than 27 go to device manager click in com 1 click update drivere install from specific locatiuon, dont search i will install have disk browse go to programs files /WModem_Installer/qcusbmdm.inf next yes ok and thats it you have it in com 1 after u done everything just delete port com 1 and it will install it after u reset the computer thank u..
u need to install WModem_Driver_Installer_v1.2.2
from metropcs.rar
try it in your friends computer or some internet cafe pcs hehehe i know bro always something happens

I wanted to change carriers from Cricket to MetroPCS. Metro told me I would have to go to Dallas to have the Metro flash applied. Well that is a 2+ hour drive from where i am. I like Metros pricing plan. I can have 3 phones for the same amount I pay for 2 Cricket. Good job on this write up and work you have done.

This is old school - there are apps for tethering now, don't forget you need root.
it's easy to get mobile hotspot free with verizon, i believe it's the same for sprint if knows the setting .... anybody willing to share how to?
http://androidforums.com/samsung-fascinate/208100-tethering-natively.html
##diag#(##3424#) is not work(evo4g).
what to do?
Follow instructions in Blue 1pm est
Step 1: Talk and Text
What you need:
A QPST
B. HTC Diagnostic drivers for the Hero
C A Windows PC with either win7, XP or Vista running in 32 bit mode (64 bit will not work)
e. Cricket's 01039.prl -- get it here
fast PRL change dial ##PRL# and phone will enter prl mode, just browse to your sdcard and select 1039PRL, hit menu to change prl. Phone reboots. now call *228 to activation and program. NOW SKIP TO STEP 2.
step 1 long route
1. Once you have all of the items above installed, go to your number pad on your ERIS and dial ##3424# and hit Call. You will see a screen come up on the ERIS called the "DM Command Service."
2. Now, plug in your phone via the USB and your computer should install the necessary drivers. These will be the drivers mentioned above.
3. Once they are installed, open QPST Configuration, Listed under the QPST Folder on your start menu.
4. Click Ports, then click "Add New Port". You should see a port in the left part of the window. If not, unselect the button that says "Show Serial And USB/QC Diagnostic Ports Only".
5. Select the port and Click OK. There may be several ports, so repeat this process until you see a port where it says "Surf..."
6. Take not of which port says Surf, then open CDMA Workshop. Do not close QPST Configuration yet.
7. On the right side of the window select the same port as was in QPST with the word "Surf..." next to it and click "connect".
8. Click on the Security Tab on the top of the screen and click "Read" under the SPC/User Lock, ensuring that the default setting is listed in the drop-down menu.
9. Select the 6 digit number it generates and copy it.
10. Go back to the QPST Configuration and click on "Start Clients" and click on "Service Programming".
11. It will come up with a window displaying active phones. You should see one, the Surf....(whatever). Select it and click OK.
12. Click "read from phone". It will ask you for an MSL/SPC Code. Paste the 6 digit code you copied earlier and click Ok. In the settings tab you will see a box for the MSL/SPC code. Replace whatever is written in it with six zeros (000000). Click "write to phone". Ignore any errors that occur.
13. Click The CDMA Tab. Under Directory Number enter your 10 digit cricket number.
14. Click The Display Tab and type "Cricket" in the Banner.
15. Click the Roaming Tab and click "Browse" under the Preferred Roaming box.
16. Find and select the 01039.prl that you downloaded.
17. Click Write to Phone on the bottom. Ignore any errors that occur.
18. Unplug phone and dial *228.
Step 2. Setting up Web
What you need:
The same programs and drivers listed above
Anycut.apk-- get it in the android market place VIA Wifi.
1. Connect Phone Via QPST and open Service Programming. (See steps 1-3, 10 above)
2. Once you have begun Programming, click "Read From Phone". It will ask you for an SPC/MSL code. That code should now be six zeros (000000) -see step 12 above.
3. Click M.IP (may be M.IPv6 and set Mobile IP Behavior as MOB + Simp...
4. Select any profiles (there should be 1 or 2) listed under User Profiles, and click edit. Do the following for all profiles.
5. Make sure that "Profile enabled" is checked and enter in the following:
NAI: [email protected]
Tethered NAI: [email protected]
6. Change home address, primary ha, and secondary HA to all zeros.
7. On both HA Shared and AAA Shared Secret, click enter text string and type in the following password (all lower case): cricket
8. click ok
9. Set active user as 0.
10. Click PPP Config
11. The "Um" Button
12. Under user ID enter [email protected] as well as for tethered NAI. If a text box is black with red lines in it, click it and press ctrl D. Enter cricket in the password box.
13.Click "AN" Button and repeat step 12.
14. Click "write to phone". Ignore any errors that occur.
YOUR DONE NOW
NexT Follow instructions from the 3rd post. Below by Token419 to apply cricketmmsweb.zip in recovery for fully functional web/MMS/and apps
15. Install the anycut.apk mentioned above on your HTC ERIS. If you need help with that, pm me and I will explain a few ways to do it.
16. Open Anycut and click New Short Cut.
17. Click Activity and scroll down to Proxy Settings. Select it and Click Ok on the window that comes up.
18. Go to The home screen on your Hero and find the Proxy Settings on your hero.
19. For Hostname enter: wap.mycricket.com and for port enter 8080.
Step 3: MMS!
What you need:
a. Android SDK---
b. Modified Telephony.db --
c. Have Eris phone flashed for talk text and web (see above if you have not done this).
1. Unzip android sdk to a place where you can find it (the shorter the directory name the better as you will soon see. Mine is saved in C:\android
Also unzip the telephony.db into a folder where you can find it. Mine is saved in C:\android
2. In windows xp click start, then run, then type cmd and hit enter. In Vista or windows 7 click start and type cmd in the search and hit enter.
3. Navigate to the folder where you unzipped the Android SDK. If you are not familiar with the command prompt, I will make a list of the commands I enter in blue. The rest you see will be the text that will be generated by the command prompt: CD the directory of adb!!! ex. type cd hit space the drag the tools folder into cmd window. now you can adb push/adb pull etc.
4. Type the Following command
C:\android\tools>adb root
* daemon started successfully *
adbd is running as root
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Send the Modified telephony.db to the phone with the following command (keep in mind that you will need to substitute the directory I am using for the one where your telephony.db file is located
C:\android\tools> adb push c:\android\telephony.db /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db
85 KB/s (4096 bytes in 0.046s)
6. Unplug your Phone and hold the power button to turn it off. Turn it back on and there you go!
some roms arent allowing the telephony.db to work giving 245kb/s or any other like 130kb/s.
My advice is if you get one to work, do a Nandroid back up, so you will always have a working web browser and MMS.
Download link 1 Download Link 2
.....space.....
Your instructions/title look exactly like Brandonharrison's post on howard forums, if you got the instructions from him it may be nice to give him credit Also you may want to change the words "Hero" to "eris" since this is an eris guide also you can skip the part about spc unlocking from CDMA WS, since the eris comes factory with spc of 000000.
Anyways if your tracking the thread on howard you can update the web portion, to what i posted to get full market and apps working, credit goes to the team at howard forums who worked on getting it working for the motodroid. i simply modified their work so that it would work on the eris.
As promised here is a zip file containing 2 flashable zips:
One will handle the OS side to get Web/MMS up and running
The other will only do the web portion (Some people don't have good luck with the MMS that i did)
Download from the attachment below, or from here:
http://www.multiupload.com/EKQ8CC27Y9
As always, make a nandroid backup first

your instructions/title look exactly like brandonharrison's post on howard forums, if you got the instructions from him it may be nice to give him credit also you may want to change the words "hero" to "eris" since this is an eris guide also you can skip the part about spc unlocking from cdma ws, since the eris comes factory with spc of 000000.
Anyways if your tracking the thread on howard you can update the web portion, to what i posted to get full market and apps working, credit goes to the team at howard forums who worked on getting it working for the motodroid. I simply modified their work so that it would work on the eris.
Feel free to delete everything after step 2 substep 14 and replace with my instructions if you wish, to simplify the process for any new comers. (we are working to get this edited in brandons post over at howard currently since he can no longer edit his post)
as promised here is a single flashable zip that will hande the os side to get web/mms up and running
download from the attachment below or from here:

so does the same process work for metro pcs and where can i get those files
Should work with any carrier so long as you know the proxy information and apn settings, in my zip you can modify the autostart.sh file and change the port numbers and ip addresses to match your carrier, then you can edit the apn to match your carriers settings as well and you should be good.
Im working on getting one for metro for you all, but i dont have all the info required and iv been busy with work, its really simple to do, i just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Sorry about that, i reuploaded the file as well as modified the attatchment.
Use at your own risk, there are 2 flashes inside the zip, one for web and one for Web+mms, some people cant get the MMS to work, works fine for me, but not sure why it doesnt work for others.
Make a nandroid backup first as always and feel free to mod it however you want
You don't need QPST, and it is in fact easier WITHOUT QPST
You don't need Windows Vista or Windows 7 (or windows at all).
Thank you for your contribution for this community.
I posted a thread for full functionality as well, with a different methodology.
And "flash" is a misnomer. All of the kids who think they're cool "flashing" phones to cricket don't even know what they're saying.
This phone can be all but fully PROGRAMMED for Cricket, and the "flashing" part is just to save you time transferring iptables to the phone.

Your little thread needs some help don't flame in my post.... if your going to create a flash solution. ..please edit it fully like I made an attempt to do. And not just say "follow instructions from HF" that was pretty wack!

i tried everything
You don't need, QPST.
Just open up your phone, then dial ##778 (call).
ALL of the settings you need to edit in QPST are available in your phone's built in program, EPST.

bigslanki,
No flaming intended. I was being serious when I said thank you for your contribution. All I've done is copied and pasted things from other sources that have worked for me as I've tried them. I should edit it more fully and maintain it better. Thank you for your suggestion.
I haven't used QPST since the days of ##778 on this phone, and I was only suggesting that less tech-savvy people, who may have trouble getting QPST working just right in Windows, might have an easier time without it.
All is well. Thank you, seriously, for your contribution.
What is the newest/easiest way?
Looks like alot of advancements have been made in the last 3 or 4 months to make the process easier. Is this thread still the best way to get an eris setup on Cricket with full functionality?
Please help out a noob! I've read so many posts, tried so may methods...I think I am SOOOOO close! But I just can't get the web/mms working.
Thanks!
Will this work for HTC Incredible? I seem to be stuck. *228 calls cricket but a voice says they can not program my phone. I have tried nearly ALL the prl files for cricket available on the link. I can call 611 from it also and speak to a csr but that was little/no help..
Please change this to hero thanks
Web on Eris
So if my Eris is already activated on Cricket with talk and text, will flashing for web (rooting etc..) de-activate my phone?

If you have a 3g indicator in the notification bar of your phone (as long as you have Mobile Network turned on - hold the power button, and turn it on, if it's not on already), then you're ready to flash the web/mms flash.
Flashing the web/mms flash or ANY kind of flash from Recovery will NOT affect your talk/text abilities whatsoever. It can only enhance the ability of your phone to do things.
I recommend flashing the Cricket v10 flash from token419's thread here, then using APN Backup & Restore to backup your APNs, modify them, then Restore them to make MMS work perfectly:

Here's what I did, exactly, to get my ex-gf's working 100%
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7665352&postcount=135
thank you!
I also called a cricket store to ask this quistion, the guy mentioned that after today, cricket will launch there own google android phone, so anyone with a flashed android phone will have to pay the $60 Plan. any idea if this is true?

That's not true.
But if you go into the store, and ask for your Android phone to be on Cricket, then yes, you'll have to pay for the plan.
Otherwise, unless they're keeping inventory of customer provided equipment (which they never have before), you're fine.
In their notes they just have 'customer-provided equipment' listed, not HTC Droid Eris.
I wouldn't worry about it. My ex-gf has this going on, so we'll see. Sprint is $69.99 for a better/faster/more reliable network, so if Cricket does this, they might lose out to that, unless people really use the unlimited minutes.
Quick question. I am very new to the android unlocking scene but I have done a good amount of research. Step 1 of this guide shows us how to get text and talk working for cricket (and I'm assuming Metro as long as you load the Metro prl). What I want to know is Step 1 EXACTLY the same as getting MetroFlashed minus adding the esn to Metro's db?
The reason I want to know is because I got my phone MetroFlashed and set up data and mms. The next day I did a hard reset. Contrary to others beliefs doing so put me back on Verizon so I brought it back to be flashed again. Now I'm reading this and would like to know if Step 1 is all I need to do to get back on Metro in the event I need to do another hard reset for whatever reason.
So, when I get to the license menu, it asks for name and serial number. How do I enter my name and what serial number do I use?
Thanks for such a newbie question.

After using the program for over a month, I was just randomly asked this by my device. Entering the serial number (behind the battery) did not do a thing. I tried deleting the bandswitch program from the program list (settings, delete programs). nothing. (I am not getting ANY connections)
I tried a system restore using SPB backup saved about 3 weeks ago. Tried backing up from an even further restore point with SPB backup.
nothing.
Connection manager cannot find ANY connections. unable to manually configure network. using At&t simcard never had a problem til now. everything was great. WHAT HAPPENED!?
I can't use my phone at all. I'm gonna have to wait until I get home and reflash/reinstall ROM to start fresh. But I really shouldnt have to (!). checked with at&t/cingular (california, usa) no problems with towers or anything on their end.
wtf.

You need to buy the license to get it, from the website..
Then need to enter the Owner Info (name). This menu is hidden by default. U need tweak to enable Owner Info. U can use BsB Tweak from here.
The owner name i located in Setting Tab >> Menu >> All Setting >> Personal >> Owner Info.
Actually, there's several alternative to Bandswitch which is free. U can use WMLongLife (search it) which have more option. Or u can add 3G Enable Comm Manager (to enable/disable 3G) and in combination with Advanced Configuration Tool (to get disconnect idle connection setting).
Bandswitch is not freeware. Install Touch Tools instead. It has an option for auto-disconnecting data, among other options.

I'm pretty sure this is not possible.

Hey man, thanks for putting together this set of instructions. Where can I download your flash pack? (TECH DIGITAL'Z Droid X and Droid X2 Cricket Flash Pack.zip). Thanks again for your work!
nope
FLashing to Cricket is NOT the same as changing the MEID on a Phone.
Besides Modifying Mobile Electronic Identification Numbers is Ilegal in the US.
FYI. IT IS POSSIBLE but very hard, specially on Motorola devices.
try this method. allthough its buggy it might work.
