THIS IS FOR METROPCS USER WItH EVO 3D NOT FOR SPRINT USERS!!!
This is a update.zip to fix mms on htc evo 3d. this will not flash your phone to metropcs or add your meid to metropcs. Your phone must already be flashed/programmed properly to metropcs and meid added with phone active on an account with internet working if internet does not work this will not work so be sure your phone is properly flashed/prgrammed. before flashing this zip uninstall all third party sms/mms apps some may cause problems. reboot into recovery flash appropriate zip for your software number when complete reboot to system, open messaging app, go to setting check sms split check box, mms should now work. test mms to be sure. you can now install third party sms/mms apps but if you do go into setting on the app and set sms split and set max mms size to 500k, test mms after every app u add.
This will replace your framework-res.apk so if you have a modded/themed framework-res.apk this will remove it, if anyone want to use this but keep your framework-res.apk use the doityourself(non-flashable), extract to your desktop, copy 3VOMETROPCSMMSFIXDOITYOURSELF_signed.zip and apns.xml to sdcard, then go on the market and dl ninjamorph open it go to /system/framework/framework-res when it opens it go to res/xml/apns.xml now it take you to root of your sdcard select the apns.xml from the doityourself(non-flashable).zip that you copied to sdcard a pop up will appear select yes when it is done hit the back arrow select finish project then select framework-res.apk now some more pop ups will appear select yes for each one and reboot when done it might freeze and require a battery pull. now uninstall all thirdparty sms/mms apps reboot phone to recovery and flash the 3VOMETROPCSMMSFIXDOITYOURSELF_signed.zip you placed on sdcard then reboot open messaging go to setting check sms split box and test mms it should work if all is well u can reinstall thirdparty sms/mms apps test mms after each install and go into setting on each app and check sms split and set max mms size to 500k

Hello all, I was hoping someone may have run into this and might could give me some feedback.
I have my phone rooted, and use Handcent for texting. I have no problems sending pictures......and up until recently, I've had no problems receiving pictures either. At first I thought it was just going to be iPhone users, but have since experienced the problem getting pics from various phones and carriers.
iPhone4 - Verizon
iPhone3 - AT&T
Samsung Eternity - AT&T
There are a few others as well. I have disabled the original messaging app, and only use Handcent. I've had no problems until the past couple of weeks. I am wondering if maybe it isn't an update issue from Handcent......I know it has manually updated a couple of times in the past few weeks.
Anyone have any suggestions?
What do you mean when you say you disabled the original app?
What ROM/kernel are you using?

Firmware 2.1update1
Kernel 2.6.29
I rooted simply to remove bloatware, I haven't changed to any of the different ROM's or anything.
I deleted MMS.apk. I wanted to try to reinstall it, to see if maybe one of the Handcent updates caused the problem somehow, after I deleted the MMS app......but I can't get it to install. I downloaded the MMS.apk on my desktop, and open it through MyFiles. I've done a few apps this way, no problem.
MMS.apk you have to push to /system/app
You cant install it like you would a normal apk.

You can install it with ESFile Explorer if you are rooted. You can find it on the market for free. You'll then need to find a mms.apk place it on your sdcard.. then using ESFile copy the apk and place it in system/apps/
Another option would be to download GeekSMS.. it runs on its on without the mms.apk. I've tried it and it worked fine for me.

Sorry for being such a noob.
Ok, figured out how to paste in RootExplorer.
Now that I did that, I ran MMS after pasting......it still won't install. It boots like its going to install the app, then I get a message saying it didn't install. I got the same thing when I just copied the APK into MyFiles and tried installing it.
What am I missing?
You're not supposed to try and install it. You move it into the /system/app and then it should show up in your app drawer.

I want to switch dialer apk from one rom to another should just use take files and place them in rom from my computer using win zip then re flash the rom? is there an easier way... sometimes it doesn't take...
Take the dialers...
The original one located in system/app
Rename it from dialer.apk to dialer.apk.bak
Then put the other dialer in, system/app
Reboot see if it works fine.
If it doesn't you'll get fcs.
If it works then it works.
If it doesn't...
Go back to system/app
Delete the dialer.apk you got from another rom.
And the original you had remove.bak from it and reboot..
I suggest you only switch apk from vibrant roms, using others like... Htc dialer probably won't work and sometimes you may have to re flash rom.
P.s.
Use root explorer to do the renaming moving etc. it's a paid app, worth it!
If you want a free, use astro file manager

This is in the complete wrong section but I'm going to help you anyway.
Download my File Mms.apk, place it on your Sdcard.
Remove HTC Messaging app via ADB or file explorer
Push Mms.apk to /system/app via ADB or file explorer
Then go to sdcard and INSTALL the Mms.apk
Reboot Phone
I'm not sure if pushing it is necessary before installation, but it's what always works me for. Remember this will remove your HTC Messaging app so back it up first, and if you want it back just follow these instructions except with the different apps.
Lemme know this works!
Thank you very much! The push then install was what I was missing!

When I send it from the gallery it crashes, but I reopen it and it sends.
Shrug?
But yes, I actually removed the htc app and dropped in the stock one with root explorer, did a fix permissions, rebooted, then installed. All my messages were there, didn't need to restore them, and it worked like a champ.
MMS is acting flaky I got it to send once and now nothing. Going to try the AOSP Gallery and see if that fixes it.
Okay, install 3dGallery, and start a text message in Messages, hit menu, go to attach, picture, select gallery, select the picture and then it will send.
At least so far that seems to work.
Not quite the out of the box AOSP experience, but getting closer.
Thanks for all the help everyone!

Hey guys.
I've gotten many PMs and replies on here asking how to get everything working on our Evo 3Ds on MetroPCS.
Here is how I got everything working on two Evo 3Ds on MetroPCS. I didn't come up with any of this information, I just put different files and guides together and it works for me. Hopefully it will work for you.
PROVISIONING
First start by following bloodykiller86's Provisioning Guide STEP BY STEP.
The settings are the same across all devices. Following the instructions on the guide (for the Evo 4G) will get you set up correctly on the Evo 3D.
DO NOT DOWNLOAD METRODROID. That rom is only for Evo 4G. After you complete step 28, come back to this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8395950&postcount=1
Now you should have voice, text and internet working.
3G SPEEDS
MetroPCS has upgraded their towers in most areas of service to include 3G coverage. If your area doesn't have it yet, it probably will get it soon enough.
You need to have PRL 3022 or newer for this to work.
So here we go,
Latest MetroPCS PRL
1. Download the file.
2. Copy PRL file to the root of your SD card.
3. Open your dialer and dial ##775# (if nothing happens, download this EPST.apk and push it to /system/app/ with permissions set to RW-R--R--).
4. Put in your MSL code (if you followed bloodykiller86's guide above it should be 000000...if not, download MSL Reader from the Market and it will give you your MSL code).
5. Click on Update PRL
6. It will take a while, but eventually it will show you the prl file that you placed on your SD card. Click on it, click on OK.
7. Now press the Menu button, and click on Commit Modifications.
8. Reboot your phone and now you will have access to 3G service if its available in your area!
NOTE: some roms do not correctly show the difference between 3G and 1X service. I used SteelH's SteelRom line of Roms and they always changed from 1X to 3G depending on my service.
MMS
This is the biggest hurdle, which very few people have successfully gotten to work. It is not a perfect solution but it works very well for us.
Download the following Zip file (not flashable):
download
Follow these instructions carefully:
1. Download and install Titanium Backup. You will also need the PRO version, so you'll need to shell out a couple of bucks if you don't already own it. It's well worth it anyways.
2. Download and install APN Backup & Restore from the Market.
3. Open APN Backup & Restore, ignore the ICS warning, and click on "Backup APNs". Exit out of APN Backup & Restore.
4. Place this folder in your SD Card.
5. Copy MetroPCS_MMS_Send_APN.xml from this folder to the APN Backup folder in the root of the SD Card.
6. Open Titanium Backup, go under Backup/Restore, and find APN Backup & Restore, press and select "Make system app."
7. Open APN Backup & Restore, ignore the ICS warning, press menu, and disable ICS check. Exit APN Backup & Restore.
8. Open APN Backup & Restore again, and now there should not be an ICS warning!
9. Click on "Delete APNs."
6. Click on Restore APNs and select "MetroPCS_MMS_Send.APN.xml".
6a. Press Ok after selecting the above.
6b. Press No when you get the message asking Yes or No.
7. Using Root Explorer or a similar app, copy the MMS.apk file from this folder to your /system/app/ folder.
7a. Make sure you are in R/W mode and click Yes to overwrite existing file if you get the message.
7b. Make sure to delete any duplicate MMS.apk or mms.apk from the /system/app directory. You should only have one Mms.apk file (notice the capitalization changes in the three files I mentioned).
7c. Make sure to delete any MMS.odex, mms.odex, or Mms.odex file in /system/app.
8. Set permissions to RW-R--R--
9. Reboot and enjoy.
Notes:
Open the Messaging app and under Settings make sure to check (enable) "SMS split".
I use Handcent to send and receive the MMS messages. Try your own messaging app, and if it doesn't work, you can always use Handcent.
As of this writing, you must not be connected to a Wi-Fi network for the messages to download or send. You can have Wi-Fi on but not be connected.
If you have a better way of getting this done please send me a message.
VOICEMAIL NOTIFICATIONS
As far as I know, and from my personal experience, the Sprint VoiceMail app does not work with MetroPCS.
I use the free app Voicemail Notifier and it has always worked reliably. It is no longer in the market, but you can
download my modded version here.
not flashable, extract to your sd card and install as a normal app.
OPTIONAL
You can now uninstall APN Backup & Restore and MSL Reader.
To send and receive 3D images, use TwinPic 3D. It will work over WiFi or over 3G.

as far as I know, the latest is best. however I always test before posting because they may have changed something for the worst.
I will update the OP to include a link to 3024. I've been playing with it today and it works great.

With today's achievements that wasn't a big deal but that would be the icing on the cake! Hopefully it all works out

For some reason my network Shield and Antivirus go bizzzerk when trying download 3024.prl - somehow is redirecting to an malformed/infected URL. so I can't even get to it. Would you mind please uploading the 3024 somewhere else. I am dying to try it. thanks very much for a very informative post.
Edit; ... nevermind googled and found it. Thanks again!
Voicemail app isn't in the market anymore.
You may have to find a download link for it.

thanks for the info.
I will upload and provide a link in the OP. it was a free app so I'm assuming that's not against the rules?

updated OP.
added log on second post.
check it out
Title says it all it's the hangouts 2.0 app modified so that MMS for verizon actually works, I just added verizon's apn's back to the apns.xml in /res/xml/apns.xml because google left them out......
heres the link to the app: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23203820527945732
for some reason i can't get it to install just by pressing install. i had to remove the hangouts/talk app....and then had to use es file explorer to move the modded hangouts app to /system/app/ then it worked. but yea i can finally send mms now
What are your guys thoughts on hangouts using as sms instead of sense sms ?

I am running Crdroid 4.3 and I couldn't get it to work using your instructions. Just force closes every time I open the app.

I moved it there, but how do I use it once its been moved?
I saw your post, and thought "maybe I could inject Straight Talk's APN info in, and get MMS working too!" ... I can't even compile the APK through APKTool. I keep getting errors about no resource with given name... Decompile worked, but compilation didn't. Did you use anything special to recompile the APK once you edited /res/xml/apns.xml?

We're you able to get this installed? I can't for the life of me figure out how, no matter what I do, it doesn't work.

I need to get recompilation to work before I can install it... Unfortunately, I don't know what I'm missing as to why I get the resource not found errors.

Dang, I was hopeful. I wish I could help you.
Hm, not entirely sure if I'm missing something or what. Running Newt's latest release of Sense 5.0 and I can't even change the permissions to write to /system/app/ utilizing ES File Explorer. I set it as Root Explorer and when trying to change permissions to Writable for Group/Other I get "Sorry, operation failed." If I don't change the permissions at all and just try and paste it I am told "Permission denied."
EDIT: Was able to utilize root browser to get your apk to /system/app/ but still cannot get the app to install.

I am in the same boat. Won't let me install it, I have tried everything
Thank you, I thought I was crazy. I have tried everything I know, and I saw all htese posts about Hangouts working just fine with pictures, and I thought maybe mine was broken. So if you can shed any light Joelz, we would love you forever....again
So I got it. After you place it in the /system/app restart your phone
I must be doing something wrong. still :/
So I transferred it into /system/app/ (as an apk), removed the update of Hangouts and then Disabled Talk through app settings. Rebooted the phone - no Hangouts. Used Root Explorer to try and install Hangouts from /system/app/ - still just says "App not installed."
EDIT: Just to rule it out, I modified the permissions of the apk. Still nothing.

So I removed the other hangout app, and then went into es file explorer and copy and pasted the apk into the /system/app/ folder then restarted the phone, but nothing shows up in the app drawer, and I can't install it. What am I doing wrong?

Me too, I wonder if that has something to do with it? hmm
I was able to get it to install by backing up the original hangouts app then removing it from data/app then moved the modified one to system/app and changed permissions, then rebooted. The app worked but unfortunately mms isn't working, I haven't been able to receive mms messages they don't appear in hangouts or the default messaging app. I'm running NOS GPE.
