Hey everyone.
So I downgraded by HBOOT and flashed CM7. But now I can't send any text messages longer than 160 characters and my service is absolutely terrible.
Any ideas on what I can do? Help would be greatly appreciated.
Go into messager settings and see if you have message splitting enabled.

Flash back to a Sense rom, flash the latest radios, then update Profile and PRL. Then flash back to whatever rom you want.
Thanks. I've tried finding the latest radios but all the links seem to be broken? Can someone link/send me a pm to a working radio please?

Do this, and also do a hands free activation as well. It will update/re-register you with Sprint.
Search for 2.17.651.5 firmware, freeza has a post that has the "all in one" firmware that won't mess with hboot or S-OFF.

Maybe I'm dumb and keep missing it in the stickies but does anyone know where I can get the latest pri? I have a feeling using the factory pri is causing.issues I'm having on ics with calls not coming through and extremely delayed texts. Thanks!

And by factory I mean the one that shipped with the phone. I have always manually updated the radios and it appears none of them in the stickyd radio thread contain the pri

Also, it'd probably help to note I'm on PRI 1.15_003 right now. I think what I'm going to try is install a stock 2.08 rom and take the OTA, then flash custom recovery back and and nandroid back to my current rom. 1.4, S-Off so shouldn't be a problem I'd think.
I have been helping out quite a few people lately and thought I would offer my help and knowledge to anyone who needs it. Have a question? Need help finding a file? Hit me up on Gtalk @ [email protected]
I may not be able to answer right away but I will get to you. I did something similar when we got s-off and ended up walking around 30 people through the process. I may not have all the answers but I will do my best to help in any way I can. Apparently others are trying to "help" and if you choose to follow their advice if you brick your phone you are on your own.

Uh, I could use some help, but not sure if it's up your alley. However I'm not allowed to post in the proper forum because of my n00bness so yeah... Anyway I'm running the new ICS on my Rezound and using the MinimalText widgit. Basically, is there any way to make numbered notifications pop up on the widgets you create and place? An example would be, is I used MinimalText to create a simple "EMAIL" icon. However I want a little notification to be able to pop up on that icon telling me how many new emails I have. Same with SMS. Any help would be cool, and if not no worries. Thanks.
EDIT: See attachment so you get what I'm trying to say

I know if you use nova laucher prime there is a secondary app called something like tesla unread. So if the theme works with tesla launcher it could be done. Tesla unread makes its so if i have a text it will have a 1 next to my message icon. here is a link,
you have to use nova launcher with this add-on, https://play.google.com/store/search?q=tesla+unread

I have a question. I want to upgrade to the new RUU. I have made a few changes and have no idea where I am with my firmware GB ICS? It works so I leave it alone.
I am S-Off, rooted and relocked but I cannot get the latest OTA update automatically. (Probably because of the custom recovery)
hboot - 2.11.000
radio - 0.95.00.1118r/0.95.00.1223r
Amon-RA recovery 3.13
Software
Android Version 4.0.3
Sense 3.6
Software Number 3.14.605.5 710RD
Where do I start? Removing the Amon-RA?

I think if you run the .12 RUU you should be back on track to receive OTA's again, if not mistaken.
Just download the new RUU name it PH98IMG and flash it in bootloader (hboot). Afterwards you will need to flash a recovery and youll be all set. Being locked, unlocked is irrelevant as long as your s-off. Meaning you never need to unlock as long as your s-off.

Ok, I was a little confused with the GB / ICS firmware talk. Figured I would just leave it alone. I will back everything up through the recovery and get this done. Thanks!

You dont ever want to mix them. The RUU contains the rom, firmware,radios etc.. you will be fine. Im on gtalk if you need help. My email should be in the op if not ill add it.

Relock and run the newest ics ruu you will need to re flash recovery of your choice when your done
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
You are on the last gingerbread release. Run the new RUU as stated and if you decide on AmonRA for recovery make sure you use v3.15. 3.13 will not work on ICS firmware.

I must have missed the part where only you can respond, last I checked that's what pm's are for.
Back on topic, I misread but yeah dude just running the ruu will get you all set. But if you made a nandroid on gb firmware you cannot restore it on ics firmware you'll have to start fresh

Youre right , i did it this way because of people like you. Apparently you cant read. What if he took your advice and had an eng hboot? He would have bricked his phone. This is my thread. I will run it as i see fit. If you cant stay out of it i will ask mods to close so you cant go around giving bad advice and will only post my gtalk acct. Also re posting advice that ive already given him is annoying and just makes more post people have to go through to find answers

Sorry for the noob question but i wanted to know if i wanted to update my prl and profile do I need to return to stock sense and unroot or can i just flash a sense rom. I am S-ON Running 10-29 CM10
Just flash a sense rom. Viper 4g rom is what I use and works. Anything based on stock sense should work. No need to unroot or return to stock.

Okay I just tried that and i get a error when i try to update either prl or profile. I'll try another rom just in case.
What rom did you try? I'm sure Viper4g works, but any rom based on stock sense should also work. Not sure what went wrong. Not sure it matters but what Hboot are you on? 1.15 or 1.19?

I was upgrading at a sprint store today and they said they are having issues with activating new lines, PRL and Profile updating are included in the problem and they said all I can do is wait until it is fixed by them.

I am on H-Boot 1.19 but that shouldn't be a problem I ended up relocking and used the RUU after that I updated both my PRL and Profile.

After flashing Meanrom and a few other ICS roms I've noticed that mms has not worked on either of them.
mms worked back when I was stock but doesnt work with any ICS custom rom I flash.
Does anyone know why or have any info on this?

Virgin Mobile
Hboot 1.57
S-OFF
TWRP recovery
I keep bouncing around trying to find a fully functional stable rom but no luck
as far as i can tell these ICS roms are set up to run MMS on sprint. I used MeanRom ICS and it ran everything without a problem (im on Sprint). there are a few guides in the JB threads on changing the MMS setting for different providers. I'd go look but i'm sitting in class trying to listen......im not succeeding apparently.

You need to get into the epst programming menu and change the settings for MMS to the virgin MMS settings.
As subject,
Can someone help me about that? I'm s-off with stock JB 3.16 Rooted. And if i fail to change, what i get it? Soft brick or permanent brick? Therefore, I need your help on this issue.
Thanks for advice and i'm sorry for the english speaking.

Make sure you read the OP. You have to update the firmware in steps to be able to run the lastest ROMs.
There is no reason to update the HBOOT, in fact you do not want to do that. It just makes it harder to gain S-OFF when you want.
Captain throwback's firmware update Thread
Before I finally got soff, I was running the latest on. 1.15 firmware without any issues. So there's a good chance you can run the latest rom without updating, still it depends on your phone really. HTC phones have a nice feel and overall quality, but stack the same model head to head and there are still a crap ton of differences. Me and my gf both have launch day evos, I can over clock and under volt while she can't do either. Her camera crashes, she has lte hand off issues, navigation crashes, and she has problems with sms. I have none of those problems

If you want to upgrade your hboot also, which is not needed, you can download and install the 2.09 hboot from the dirty racun site and install it if you want.
