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.

you mean hdr password right? I did not see an mdr password listed anywhere
I've since solved my boot screen issue. I've installed :
dcd 3.2.5
Titan_Radio_ROM_3.42.30
dcd USCC Carrier 20080801
I have no data connection, I deleted it says my username and password are incorrect. I've tried every combination of my 10digit number and uss.net that I can think of. I've also reinstalled the uscc carrier cab, did the *228 and a soft reset. I can connect for 2 kilobyts then after that I can't connect. I'm not finding much on these forums to help me out. Does anyone have any ideas?
additional info
Sorry, the phone is a USCC 6800
hey just to let you know I have the 6900 and I dial #777 not sure if u wanna try that
I've had the same problem everytime I change ROMS. I have Verizon and found after I've "activated" the phone using the *228 then option 1, I then do *228 and option 2 (update my roaming capabilitys). That has always enabled my data connection.

If that doesnt work and you have an old cell phone around you can swap the ESN's on VZW's web site under customer service. When you do this you reset all the security information for the handset. I find this way to be the quickest method that has never failed. I use it so much I have the other ESN almost memorized!~

Run EPST and make sure that your PPP user name and password in there are correct.
If you didn't back up your phone's programming with QPST before and after flashing there is a chance that your EPST information is corrupt which would cause data to not work.
You will need your SPC/MSL in order to access EPST. You can try 000000 if nothing else works, and if it is 000000, you will need to set it back to the correct SPC/MSL otherwise *228 won't properly update your phone. Also USCC doesn't offer an option 1 or 2 after dialing *228, they don't have an OTA reprogramming of their phone.
If those changes don't work, you can try posting your entire EPST on here (removing any personal info, i.e. phone #, ESN, etc) and one of us USCC folks can compare it to ours and let you know what other areas look corrupt.
This is the one downside to USCC customers, we have to take extra steps while programming our phones to get them up and running, luckily it's a one time thing, once the phone is flashed the first time, these settings stick.

Hello,
I am new to posting here, however I have been reading throughout the forums since I got my HTC PPC6800 in September through US Cellular. I have been through a few different custom roms and have never had any trouble. Then, yesterday after flashing to a winmo 6.5 rom, I lost the ability to connect to EVDO and I am stuck on 1x all the time. I switched back to Titan Reloaded v1.3.4 and still have the same issues. I also had changed my banner yesterday from CellSouth to US Cellular through QPST and I have since reloaded the file from when I read it with QPST before making changes.
Does anyone know of any issues that could cause this?
Thanks
Dave
Hey this might get you on the right track.
Did you use Debug(fieldtrial) (dialer code ##33284 call button) mode and look in the HDR tab and make sure it says you are authenticated? If not then you have to Re-Authenticate. That is done is PST (##778 call button). Follow my Cricket PST settings thread, (only the Part about re-authenticating) and use your US cellular values. Let me know if I have helped.
Just whatever you do, do not Use CRICKET settings for the Carrier you are using which is US CELLULAR
Have you checked your EPST settings to make sure they are correct? You might try running the uscc carrier cab. EVDO will not connect unless the EPST Security/MIP Profile settings are correct.
These were the settings I had to change for my phone to connect to EVDO: http://sites.google.com/site/victorbush/htc-6800-1/epst-data-settings
Its under EPST, goto Security, under HDR Username and password it needs to be as follow.
Find your ESN (In hex first)
HDR Username should be ESN(IN HEX)@uscc.net
HDR Password should be your ESN(IN HEX)
i.e.
ESN = 3C123456
HDR Username [email protected]
HDR Password 3C123456
(The ESN must be in CAPS)
PPP Username and password are based on phone #
i.e.
phone# = 1234567890
PPP Username = [email protected]
PPP Password = 1234567890
This bit me and several other people when USCC first launched EVDO
Also, mine has been changed from just flashing the rom, so you may need to fix this more than once.
Just an FYI.

THANKS
This method worked great (changing settings in EPST.) I thank you all for all the help!!!!
Thanks SOOOOOO MUCH!!! Without EVDO my phone is useless!\
Dave
wow thanks for all the responses. in actually using your rom ryan. i love it but i often wondered what that debug program was for....lol im gonna try that asap. i thought just flashing it with your rom would "magically" work. everything else has. what is the us cellular stuff ur talkinh about? do the rest of those comments that all the other great people who responded carry any weight with ur rom? is it even a rom specific issue? my phone does recognize the evdo signal but will not function untill it drops back to 1x just to clarify my issue. sorry it took so long to respond. i have been attempting to cook my own rom and im working on a 2d fix that is not a plugin. thanks everyone for the response. i appreciate all the help!

I am only responding to what is in BOLD above. That issue sounds like you need to Un-Authenticate and Re-Authenticate. If you are using Cricket it explains how to do that in my Cricket PST settings thread.
I currently do not have a US cellular version of my ROM. This thread was created by the Member "kwineon" only to find out why his EVDO was not working on his ROM for US cellular. We helped him fix his problem and then you come along asking questions that do not even apply to MY ROMs OR This Thread (with the exception of your EVDO issue)
If you are going to experiment do it at your own risk... I have cooked 4 carrier specific rom's (Cricket, Sprint, Verizon, Metro PCS) thats it buddy..
I have a 3vo flashed to metro and I'm having trouble getting it to connect to 3g. The place that flashed the phone did not repair the meid. But I'm not sure if they wrote a esn from a non 3g phone to mine when they houdinied it. When I read the nv items on qxdm the esn shows up but the checksum and eveywhere else is zeroed out. Di those need to match? Anyone familiar with this process please help I'm in a 3g area but cannot connect. And this 1x ia killing me. I just paid my bill and don't wanna go to boost if I don't have to. Thanks in advance
Shot from my Shoot3Rvo
Disclaimer, I'm not an expert and I have only done a handful of clones and conversions to other networks.
First does your phone make calls? If so meid/esn are ok. Since you have 1x that also shows your meid/esn are ok too.
You don't have 3G because they didn't enter the server information correctly or your HA Password or AAA pasword are wrong. Take the phone back and have them figure it out. I've always done it with a donor phone that worked completely on the network and I just copied over all the information with qpst or cdmaws to the new phone. Newer phones hide the HA and AAA passwords so using qpst/cdmaws cant retrieve them. If the donor phone is an android phone your can get the passwords using adb, logcat and go into ##data# and access the HA/aaa fields and the go back and search logcat for the passwords.
Start searching forums for retrieving HA/AAA passwords for the EVO 3D and also general activating on Boost/Cricket process. The process would be the same except with Metro you may not have to repair meid because their is houdini to insert the meid into the database. Find out what the programming settings are supposed to be and check them with qpst/service programming or go into ##data# check them there.
Good luck and happy reading.
Sweet thanks the the best feedback that I have recieved. The way the guides show is that for metro that the ha and spi are supposed to be the msl code but I have tried that among others. So maybe I need to be using the msl code that was used for the phone they houdini with. I don't know to much about using qxdm but the areas I do scan for meid and esn are all zeros or 0xFFFFFFF is that normal.

Is there anyway to flash the Droid Razr to metro pcs and if so can someone provide me with a link? If I'm posting in the wrong place just let me know.
i'm thinking you may need more than just flashing for that.
Do you know what I might need then? This verizon bill is killing me. I know people have successfully flashed the razr to Cricket. I mean I know I'm gonna need to root kit which isn't a problem I've done that kind of thing plenty of times and I've just been procrastinating on doing it on my Razr for some reason.
i know how to flash it to metropcs just cant get it into the metropcs system so if someone can help me as far as getting it into the system i can definately help them on the falshing part

I found this
http://www.cricketusers.com/verizon...-cricket-wireless-talk-text-mms-internet.html
At the moment this is a placeholder for notes. The tutorial might have to be finished by someone who has more time than me to work on this device. Mine is on Verizon now. I will probably poke at it a little bit more when I get home and back to a normal schedule, but throughout December, it's going to be hectic for me. I'm going to try and add pictures so someone will have some knowledge going into this where I had none. If someone can get a hold of a Bionic tutorial, this might be similar.
Currently talk and text works but 3g data drops out. It works when it's connected but wants to cycle off and on A LOT.
As a good rule of thumb, always try to backup your settings before modifying them.
DIAG MODE
Verizon Droid RAZR Diagnostic Mode How To
NOTES (semi based off Thunderbolt tutorial)
CDMA WS 3.5 or later will give you more options and another method of writing data profiles to the device.
QPST does work HOWEVER you cannot read and then write the original settings to the phone (after modification of course). You have to start fresh and write ONLY.
CDMA AUTO (PRL) MODE (info from RLockwich)
Go into *#*#4636#*#* - Went into phone information (Set to CDMA Only PRL, DNS check allowed, Query CFU enabled).
QPST
Add the port for the device if required under QPST configuration. It's going to be the DIAG port. Just check device manager to see what port that is.
Use the Service Programming application under the QPST folder to access the phone. Connect to it but don't read.
Now follow this tutorial to write the proper information:
http://www.cricketusers.com/flashing...s-cricket.html
Write to the phone. Reboot it once all the writing is done and catch the boot to put it back in DIAG mode. If you don't it's no big deal, but you will have to power it down and get it back in DIAG mode before continuing.
CDMA WS
Open up CDMA WS and connect to the port with the RAZR. Go to the security tab and send the SPC 000000. Then go to the memory tab and send the DROID NV items which can be found at whiterabbit.org. It should write the NV items and fix the data.
UPDATE: The following might be required
Go to the "Other" tab and navigate to "R-UIM" then click read.
Change it to "NV Only" and write to phone. It should say Successful
Close out CDMA WS and reboot the phone.
Phone Settings (info from RLockwich)
Go into the ##PROGRAM select option 14 for LTE I turned off LTE bppanic, LTE Movement detection, and disabled Class 1,2,2 APNS
Additional Instructions (info from RLockwich)
Just went through all the settings again, I hope everyone can have as much luck as I just did. I was thinking, and I remember seeing the end of the thunderbolt tutorial says the last step is to remove the 4G LTE microSIM. I had tried that before early on when I first flashed it, but when I removed the card, it showed No Sim, no network connection and a SIM symbol with a exclamation point. I just tried it again a hour ago...Pulled the SIM, showed no network and then I rebooted the phone... FIVE times on and off all with immediate and STABLE 3G at 10 minutes a time between rebooting. FIXED. Done messing with it.
UPDATE 12/19 - After this last post it's been 4 days since we cracked the 3G cycling issue, and my phone is working excellent! I'm very glad I was able to be a part of this and get credit work any work I put into this.
Dina's Notes:
Got everything working THANKS to Chris and RLokwich! Oh, and for those of you that are not yet successful with this flash, just re-read the entire thread. Everything you need is HERE!
It was not all smooth in the beginning.
Insights:
1) No need for BP tools. If your phone is on the homescreen, just connect it to the cable, choose PC mode and set up the port in HW.
2) Mine took like 5 master resets before 3g showed up. So in case you are pulling your hair as to why 3g not showing up, master reset the phone. Turn on wifi. Bypass activation screen (backwards C method works if you keep trying for like 2 minutes), go through the set up pages and 3g will be there.
Everything is stable so far. 3g working like a charm.
Discovered a secret!
If you do not get 3g up, make sure to Enable at least one APNs in the LTE settings (##PROGRAM menu)

MMS (needs to be tested)
The only thing I've realized now that is wrong, is no MMS. I have MMS through the tutorial on bypassing the apn through GoSMS, but I would very much like to not have it to be that way. I thought early on in this flash that I did have MMS, I think I was just being a smart ass so I changed some settings in ##PROGRAM for the SMS/MMS part that I copied from the Thunderbolt tutorial. I don't know if I messed something up. I was also thinking I've seen people having two Cricket apns? One for internet and one for MMS, does anyone know if that may fix it? I was thinking it may be that, but in my apn for cricket already, I edited it and filled in all the MMS settings for that APN. Maybe that's something I did wrong, I don't know.
If anyone does have working MMS on their flashed Razr, please post anything that might help us. Please post all your settings in SMS/MMS in ##PROGRAM and into your APN edit settings for Cricket APN you have for MMS (if you have anything filled out in the MMS blanks)
##Program
Enter SPC "000000"
SMS/MMS Settings
MML Server Name

Anyone? Currently set at 6245
Try adding an APN for Cricket's settings or modifying the existing APNs to reflect Cricket's MMS settings.
this is what i used to get my phone on metro but the only issue im having is getting the phone itself into metropcs inventory....
i have a droid 3 esn im willing to use or if theres a way to just get the razr into the system that would be the better method

2) Mine took like 5 master resets before 3g showed up. So in case you are pulling your hair as to why 3g not showing up, master reset the phone. Turn on wifi. Bypass activation screen (backwards C method works if you keep trying for like 2 minutes), go through the set up pages and 3g will be there.
Everything is stable so far. 3g working like a charm.
Discovered a secret!
If you do not get 3g up, make sure to Enable at least one APNs in the LTE settings (##PROGRAM menu)

MMS (needs to be tested)
The only thing I've realized now that is wrong, is no MMS. I have MMS through the tutorial on bypassing the apn through GoSMS, but I would very much like to not have it to be that way. I thought early on in this flash that I did have MMS, I think I was just being a smart ass so I changed some settings in ##PROGRAM for the SMS/MMS part that I copied from the Thunderbolt tutorial. I don't know if I messed something up. I was also thinking I've seen people having two Cricket apns? One for internet and one for MMS, does anyone know if that may fix it? I was thinking it may be that, but in my apn for cricket already, I edited it and filled in all the MMS settings for that APN. Maybe that's something I did wrong, I don't know.
If anyone does have working MMS on their flashed Razr, please post anything that might help us. Please post all your settings in SMS/MMS in ##PROGRAM and into your APN edit settings for Cricket APN you have for MMS (if you have anything filled out in the MMS blanks)

Try adding an APN for Cricket's settings or modifying the existing APNs to reflect Cricket's MMS settings.

You have a 15 digit imei number correct?
Just remove the last number and google for a meid or esn converter
Enter your 14 digit 99 # and hit enter
you should get a 256 #
Smiles and good luck!
