ED01 has a check to see if you are on another carrier. you need to downgrade. Try an AOSP rom.

Meh, I just remember reading about a carrier check. Personally, I'm on Verizon, so listen to the people that have another carrier.

Idk about metro but on cricket if you're on the android plan a simple change in the apn settings will do the trick ...try that with your phone.

[Q] ICS ROM T-Mobile Radio.

I seem to have an issue, seems like when i flash a new ics rom and a modem for ics on the note for tmobile i get a cirlcle with a strike where reception would be. I get no reception, not even edge. Ive tried all three modems/radios that they have for ics. And all give me the same issue. Also under about phone it gives me baseband unknown. And in status it gives me network unknown with several others in that same category. ROM i am currently on is Saurom and my modem for tmobile works fine on this ROM. Can someone please help. I sold my sensation which was running ICS perfectly fine on it. I dont like GB anymore. This feels like a downgrade instead of an upgrade. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated!
Edit: The new Blaze radio that was updated 05/28 fixed this issue. Thanks for the help!
Have you tried flashing GB radio's?
I haven't tried mainly because they are for GB and it clearly states it in the GB radios. And also because i dont want to mess up my phone.

Mesmerize on straight talk??

I just installed the xda android app. But I can't seem to find the samsung mesmerize section. Figure fascinate section might be able to help.
Anywho: I have a US cellular Mesmerize. Im trying to find information if its possible to unlock and use the phone on straight talk network.
It seems its pretty easy task as far as the att and verizon versions are concerned. But I'm not having much luck with getting information on the mesmerize. And help or links would be greatly appreciated.

[Q] Help please

alright I got a problem that I need some help with alright this is how it started out I started flashing modem/radios to my rom and I flashed several different one (uclf3-6 and gb) it all started with a fix I tried from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895538&highlight=straight+talk after that it went all haywire I get text I get calls my apn settings are correct checked double checked triple checked I get no data at all use data packets is on im stumped I flashed odin stock and its still the same I cant figure it out can someone help me
You are currently on Stock rom ?
with ST APN settings ?? (they are revised from the thread you posted)
And are you using the UCLE2 modem ??
You must use the UCLE2 modem with Straight Talk APN's in order for data to establish.
And Goldie's rom if possible, but stock rom will work also...
then double check the APN, as it has changed from the original thread that you linked. check the end of that thread, and read it completely for the new APN settings on the MMS and data side.
I dont use ST, but based on the thread, you should have success if the APN is set properly on the UCLE2 modem....g
It is set straight I got the apn settings from straight talk themselves and I am running ucle2 modem and I got nothing

You are likely missing the RIL's from the stock rom with straight talk. Basically without these libraries, the modem wont function...
Did you flash Only one goldies rom to test function ??, as this rom contains the RIL's for ST.
This Straight Talk is a bad deal on connection issues....g
Also...UCLE2 modem is ICS only...If you are running a gingerbread rom, the Modem will "NOT" work anyway....g
How do I get the RILS

You need an ICS rom when using the UCLE2 modem..(ICS only).....
then follow the steps again in the link you posted, with the upgraded APN settings that ST gave you....g
If you have the ICS rom with the ICS modem....your good....g
Tried it it don't work

See your other thread for other suggestions...
And please refrain from posting multiple threads.
I understand your frustration, but multiple threads do not increase exposure to the issue. They only gather attention from moderators ...
Good luck ....g

[Q] Would installing the GSM patch give me 3G?

Hello again. I know I've posted a thread like this a while ago, but I didn't seem to get an answers. Recently, I stumbled upon this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2369930, and it says it can enable the GSM radio. By the looks of it, it seems as if that can help enable 3G on the PagePlus network. So, if anyone has tried it, did it work for you? Thanks, hoping I can get feedback as soon as possible.

I found another one, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2375489, but by the looks of it, it doesn't seem to work here in the US. Not sure though, because I would really love to use 3G again and CyanogenMod 10.1.2 isn't letting me. Thanks.
