I'm on MetroPCS too and I have data and such. You have to provision your phone.

Nope. T-mobile is GSM. Sprint is CDMA.
It wont work with tmobile but maybe you can get it to work with metropcs or even boost.
Although I hear there are some legal concerns about doing this..
You need to buy the EVO 3D from Rogers Canada

Don't go with Tmobile unless you have to, I have had some bad experiences with them.
Tmobile = FAIL!
Sorry,
You can't. T-mobile needs SIM card slot, Sprint does not. You could get the sensation, a replica with out 3D and half the amount of RAM.

If you search the forum a bit you can find threads on how to do this. I'm sure I've seen a thread or two on metropcs and evo 3d.

yeah i saw it too. but i think you cant get mms on it thru metropcs. i hope i'm wrong. i'd love to move from my $55/month (taxes included) on tmobile to $40/month with metropcs. i'd be happy.

I know this must have been answered before but I am not able to find it . You are a senior member can you kindly answer or point me in the right direction?
What are the steps to unlock my Sprint EVO 3D and use it with MetroPCS?
Does rooting mean unlocking?
There seems to be two types of rooting soft and hard, which rooting is required or unlocking?
Thanks

It's not called unlocking for Metro, Unlocking is a term used for GSM Phones.
You are wanting to FLASH to metro pcs. From what I know there is some CDMA workshop trickery involved, and I believe you DONT need to be rooted for it to work although I could be wrong. Also btw ROOTING ≠ UNLOCKING
Metro is garbage, if you want the best, pre paid , its page plus, 45- buck a month with unlimited talk text and 20mb internet but best part is it uses verizons service
Which in my case tops any pre paid plan by a milestone

lmao...what good is that when u got no data? not only that but PP needs a verizon esn.....if there was a way to change the esn on the evo 3d u think people would pick PP over boost? metro roams off of sprints towers. u can actually load a sprint prl into any metro phone and it will work. anyhow metro is great cause u get unlimited data, even if its slow u still get data and all ur apps work. yes you can flash the evo 3d to metro pcs, its same as flashing any other phone. u need cdma ws to change the passwords and all that stuff the m.ip and the ppp. i sold my last evo 3d on metro pcs alsmot fully working...mms is not working. im getting another evo 3d in 4 days ill see if now with root theres a way to get mms. all apps work on metro pcs.
google: flash evo 4g to metro pcs and its the same settings. u will need cdma ws 3.7 its worth buying it
U can get unlimited data for more money.
I've done my old EVO 4G on page plus, everything works.

Factory reset, available in the stock recovery main menu and under the settings on the stock sense ROM, should only wipe the /data partition.
The data changed for different carriers should be stored in the radio and is a bit more low level than the /data partiton.
The /data partition basically stores emails, text messages, web pages, bookmarks, brightness settings, wifi passwords, etc.
Hope that helps!
Thanks man

What is your service provider? Are you with Rogers?
Look up the APN for your network and set it on your phone.
Post here if you need more help.
First off, have you flashed the firmware package?
Hi guys,
Can anyone give me any sort of instructions on how to flash a Sprint HTC Evo 3D over to Straight talk ?
I have the Sprint CMDA HTC Evo 3D, Revolutionary rooted, downgraded HBoot 1.50 to 1.40, S-OFF.
Thanks

You cannot.
Straight talk runs on att network so you need a gsm 3d phone.
There is no way to flash cdma to anything but boost, cricket, maybe metro PCS.
The x515a evo 3d would be specific for att bands, x515m for USA T-Mobile bands.

I would also be interested in this. I just need to know what would need to be changed. Also, there are plenty of "paid" flashing services that use straight talk for the evo 3d. I also happen to own an active CDMA straight talk phone. Im using the crappy flip phone because I am uncertain what settings need to be migrated.
I have the msl # for my phone, so I can access the menus. I am not asking for instructions, just simply 'The PRL needs to be changed, etc. etc." maybe a quicklist ? I love my evo 3d. Help ?
I am also absolutely positive that my current straight talk phone is CDMA. Maybe they have access to a couple of diff. networks ?
If you are not comfortable putting this into a reply, PM me. I am uncertain what they are, but I know there are some boundaries.
I am also a fairly competent engineer, so there would not be any "hand holding" necessarily.
Using qpst it can access all secret programming of phone, there are about a dozen changes done with that program, then finding compatible prl, MSID #, usually ask your provider. It's like your phone number, but not, usually next area code over.
Pull up some YouTube vids, saw it IS possible. Odd cause str8talk in west is using Sims, anyways google always taught me, take guide for OG EVO, same process.

Nevell posted earlier in his thread that he flashed the evo shift to straight talk. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27079247 should be close to the same for the 3d.
I purchased my Evo 3D USED about a week ago, activated it, and everything BUT 4G works.
I have another 4G phone (Epic 4G) and it connects perfectly fine.
I called sprint twice, once one day after activation, and another a week after activation, both time they lead me through the same process, updating the profile info, resetting the msdn info, etc and on the second call they ruled it as a hardware issue.
Current state of my Evo 3D
S-OFF Revolutionary
1.4 hboot
Running MikVirgin.
Tried Stock Rom
Tried Mean Rom
I've tried going outside and going to other places with 4G, but to no avail 4G does not work.
I turn 4G on,
1. scan
2. connecting to sprint
3. authenticating with sprint
4. disconnected
I "upgraded" from a Samsung Replenish which waived the 10$ surcharge that is put on smartphones, could this be part of my problem?
I am able to return the phone but first want to be sure that the phone is indeed the problem.
Thanks for reading!
Try mwakious 3.0 ROM for HTC EVO 3D or try a RUU to bring you back to stock everything and it will work I hope.

It sounds like he is cdma so that rom won't work. I'm grasping at straws, but it sounds like his phone is not provisioned properly for 4G on the network. It seems like it tries to authenticate and is being denied.

I did call sprint, so wouldn't they have pointed out that maybe my plan, or my phone wasn't correctly configured to connect to 4G, and wouldn't updating the profile correct the problem?

One would hope they were competent. I was guessing based on it said authenticating then disconnect and that you are not paying the surcharge. You may need to take it to the Sprint store for repair.
