I Actually just got my HTC Hero a few days ago and i have not been able to send picture messages. Im on Tmobile US and have tried just about very combianation of apn's possible and with a Big NO GO. I Also contacted T-mobile but they were unable to help me and i even talked to various reps.
Ok so well everything else on my phone works just fine such as calling, sending normal text, using the internet and RECEVING Picture! But i just cant send them. Is there anyone else with this problem and were you able to find a solution? I've had my phone rooted since i received it so i dont know if after rooting it stopped working cuz i never tried that. I would like to unroot my phone but i just dont know how. I would need a nandroid backup of an unrooted image so if anyone wants to help me with that. I'd appreciate it!
Thanks to anyone who can help!
Same problem here - T-Mobile US.

well at last its good to know im not the only one! IT just pretty much sucks knowing that there is no one to help you out!
Im still under 15 days Return Policy so its actually in mind sending the phone back and maybe waiting for the US Version! But 2 months without a phone is nuts....
May not be many because its not released in the US yet - You MIGHT get some luck by asking on the Sapphire Forum. The board and hardware of the Hero is VERY similar to the Higher Ram Sapphire (Magic) usually referred to as 32A device or Rogers Magic.
They are officially released on TMO US so a US poster might be able to share their exact APN settings with you to try. Just a thought...might be worth a try

@ Dayzee.
Well as stated previously the apn settings are the correct ones so thats not the Issue. I also comfirmed this with T-mobile!
Im very Familiar with android as i had the g1 since it came out then i got myself a magic 32A. and now i have a Hero. So i have a good understanding of all this.
I will however try the Sapphire forums as the Hero forums are very small due to the fact that the phone just came out and considering that most users on here are rather new to android and will not be of much help to me.!
Thanks Anyway.
Just trying to help. Not sure it needed a "lol at dayzee" but good luck with it.
yeah, i just read my post and didn't sound too good. Ive gone ahead and edited the "lol'..........
I don't know if the MMS.apk might have anything to do with it so i will go ahead and port the MMS.apk from Cyanogens build and try that!
Forget it I'm an idiot and didn't read.
Hey whats up fellow TP users. I got a quick question.
I have an Sprint TP, that i flashed to use with MetroPCS. I want to sell it, and i have a buyer, who has Sprint. My question is, To get it back to sprints service, all i have to do is install a sprint stock Rom correct? and that will do the job? or are there other steps and things i need to do. I just need to get the phone working back with sprint again.
Thanks for your time.
Also on a side note, i was thinking of getting a Palm pre, i heard you can flash those to MetroPCS, but i didnt see it anywhere on here, and even on PalmPre forums, i didnt see a step by step or any tutorials.
Any help would be aprreciated. I am selling this in the next 30-40 mins, so please, don't bash. I need quick answers.
Once again thanks.
No one can help me? 11 views, and not a single comment? I just need help understanding this all. Damn its like that.
really? No one wants or can help me? I find that hard to believe with this many talented people on this forum. Thanks for nothing.
Hello All,
HTC Touch Pro
---------------------------
U S Cellular
ROM - 1.08.573.1
Radio - 1.07.06F
Very new to smartphoning. Have spent the last few days trying to get VOIP enabled on this HTC Touch Pro phone. At this point I am guessing some how U S Cellular has disabled the ability to do 'Internet Calling' with the stock ROM. I have downloaded every voip related .cab ,reading through each tutorial and just never end up with the 'Internet Calling' tab showing under the >settings> Phone category.
I have searched here but simply can not find a definative answer for this.
Could someone that possibly has an usc Touch pro give me a link or a walk through on how to enable voip on this phone. I would guess I am going to have to drop a new ROM on to it,at this point?
BTW: I have installed both fring and agephone( with no luck there),but would like to get back to the native WinMo 6.1 voip setup if possible.
Thanks in advance
Barry
Smartphoning? First time I have ever heard that one... ahhh kids these days
All joking aside, you may want to try to get rid of your stock rom. There are a few threads in this site about VOiP and how some users have managed to get it working. Having said that, more than likely you will have to get rid of your current stock rom.
egzthunder,
Thanks for the feedback. I was hoping someone might post up what ROM they used,,IF in fact voip is actually possible on the uscc cdma phone? I see so many voip *almost* works posts ,but have never really read A post were someone is actually using voip on TP,on a daily basis?,,,.

I usually don't reply to these types of threads, this time I just couldn't resist.
"I see there are threads about flashing evo's to Metro PCS but i was wondering if they are all work the same for EVO 3D" Simple question, are they the same phone? no. Search, read, comprehend, learn. Root is required to do many things such as flashing to another carrier. If you don't know this then I really don't think you should be flashing anything in the first place. You are the type that will fry their phone due to ignorance and laziness and then try and get Sprint to give you a new one or come on here complaining.
"I want an step by step instruction on how to flash it to Metro PCS with everything working "
You start with "I want" and then end with a smiley like that makes everything ok. Seriously, if you want, do it yourself. Plenty of people on here, myself included, are willing to help. I can't think of one of them, myself included, that enjoys being commanded into what one individual wants.
To sum it up, no you can't. While you're waiting though, may I suggest some light reading.

welcome to the waiting game.
i check these forums every day waiting for permanent root so I can try tinkering with it.
once we have permanent root I can buy an Evo 3D and my first steps will be to test out all the qpst and epst settings from the Evo to see if they work and keep trying different things until I get it working or (more likely) someone on here will.
once there is root i will approach the guy who did the best job getting all the features working on the Evo 4G on MetroPCS (bloodykiller86 i think is his screen name) but until we have permanent root = no dice.
so welcome. wait and be patient.

WTF???? seriously dude....i messed up my first evo when i was trying to flash it boost mobile, i went and bought another one and i was more careful next time till i finally got it working 100%
why do u care if he goes and asks sprint for another phone???
is the money coming out of your pocket??? we are all trying to learn here man. yes we are all ignorant when we dont know something but thats why we try so we can learn. not to get some1 who is a senior member of a forum to call us a bunch of names....u r a developer??? well nice im happy for you, i wish i was as smart as you....but you dont have to be a smart ass to people.
i seriously hate when some1 asks something and some1 who knows the answer starts been a smart ass.....anyways YES you can flash the evo 3d to metro pcs, but talk and text only. i tried entering the profiles in qpst but it didnt work, i tried changin the ppp and mip settings but it didnt work. the settings stick which means you dont need root to change all the profile usernames n pass.
like i said in my regular evo i didnt even need root and the phone would get text/talk and web just by changing the mip n ppp settings. from what i know metro doesnt use proxies anymore......but anyways if you need help with talk n text let me know i can probably help you
you should buy cdma ws.... so you dont have to mess with all those methods to get msl code, with WS all u do is hit read n ur done, its worth the 99 bucks

In a way, yes. As any company finds it less profitable to do things a certain way, they end up reducing perks and/or raising prices.

I don't believe anywhere in my previous post did I call anyone any names, I don't do that. I am not a developer, there are far smarter people on here than me. What I do though is try and learn as much about this stuff as I can so I can help myself and others. If I do have a question, I ask, but is not without extensive searching on the matter first. In many cases just reading the stickies will answer most question people might have.
My tone may have been a bit harsh (I had had about a 12 pack and I'm attempting to quit smoking so that will do it). I still stand be my previous post though, search, read, comprehend, learn. If you still can't find your answer, then by all means ask, don't demand.
You can flash without root if u have the correct parameters, i have mine flashed onto reliance cdma in India and it works very well and root isnt required

Hi Charan,
Do you have any site or any details on how to flash Evo 3d to Reliance CDMA since i am planning to get one. Also does the phone is required to have a clean ESN?
Apart from these i have never used CDMA in India. Can you tell me if Reliance has good internet plans for CDMA?
your help is highly appreciated
Thanks,
Hitesh
Just use the methods for ALL other HTC ANDROID phones to metro/cricket.. Thereis nothing that needs to be done that NEEDS root just get the metro info (your mobile number AND MSID) and have metro add the esn on their network. The esn does NOT need to be clean either that ONLY matters on sprint networks... After u get the info needed ##data# and put the info in. This w ill give u voice/data/sms. Mms may work the same as well (apn backup and restore) and delete the old apns and add a proper one.

I already have a metropcs number and I have the MSID and all those numbers saved from when I put my OG Evo 4G on metro. I also have BloodyKiller86's conditioning guide for the OG Evo. you think following those instructions I could get the Evo 3D working after I add the ESN to their database?
lastly, do you think the APN I used back then for the OG Evo would work on the Evo 3D as well?
can someone please post a guide on how to flash to metro???
Go in the Evo 4G forums here and search for "metropcs conditioning guide" by bloodykiller86. You still need someone to add the esn to metro's database first, no way around it.
Sent from my HTC Evo 3D on the MetroPCS 1x network...
EDIT: by the way, until now there is no way (that I know of) to get MMS to work...however, if both people have Evo 3D, TwinPic does send 2D and 3D images over internet so it works just fine over MetroPCS' network. that's how my wife and I share images right now.
I dont understand!

Could you explain this to me more? So i just follow a tutorial that covers all HTC phones? Do I follow it exactly? No tweaking? I'll PM you if you want me to.
I would really like to post this in the appropriate forum but apparently I don't have enough privileges to do so. I to can not get my 4g to work on this ROM, even after applying the, *#*#4636#*#*, fix that is in the OP. There was someone else that posted the same problem in the MIUI forum and the DEV gave a link to download the spyder version. I did that also and still no luck. I would like the DEV to know that that person is not the only one with the issue. I actually can't get any data to transfer over the network even on 3g. I don't know if this is related or not. I was also wandering about a couple of the pop ups right at the beginning of setting up the phone on initial flash. I cannot read the language so I don't know what I am agreeing or not agreeing to. I wanted to know if I could get a clarification on this. Any useful help would be appreciated. Thanks.
