I have a EVO 3D flashed to MetroPCS, with fully working internet and is rooted with S-on. I hate to ask probably a stupid question, but I have looked all over to find a MMS fix for the software version I have. I have tried each one I have found and they put my phone into a boot loop. I have had to run the RUU several time so far and it really sucks having to do that.
The specs on the phone are:
Android version: 4.0.3 ICS
HTC Sense: 3.6
Software version: 2.89.651.2 71ORD
Baseband: 1.09.00.0706
Has anyone found a way to fix the MMS with these specs? If so could someone point me in the right direction to get this fixed?
Thank you to everyone who posts, I greatly appreciate it!
Can you tell me how or where you learned to you upgrade your flashed Metro phone to ICS & HTC Sense 3.6?

The upgrade to ICS was done right after I got my phone talk and text flashed. The phone was still not rooted, and the HBOOT WAS STILL 2.08
Personally I would recommend not upgrading. I find more fixes, ROM's, etc.. for the old version. The HBOOT will become 2.58 and is hard to find a lot of things that work with it. If you are wanting to update anyway, you will need to unroot, and relock your phone. After that you can go into your settings, system updates,firmware updates. Hope this helps!

Noticed that my phone did not take the OTA 4.3 update. I got to looking around and read some on converting HTC One to a Google Edition. Can someone help me understand the advantages of a GEdition phone as opposed to the ATT one? Too, is it a good ROM (I assume it will be a stock).
I'm really STUCK because I want to update my HTC One but I want to keep ROOT. I'm using Stock now, but I cannot seem to find a reliable ROM. Help help!
Thanks in advance!!

At first I really didn't like my ATT stock Sense ROM primarlily because of All that ATT crap-ware they had preinstalled.
I actually got Android 4.3 GE RUU for HTC one up and running....and...at first glance...it seemed really clean and nice! Didn't have any ATT stuff which was a big plus.
Hoping for a clean, stable, custom developer esque ROM........But I really am not a big superFan of Google for all my services...
(I use AdblockPlus on my MacbookAir, Windows XP Desktop at home, while checking my Yahoo email from my Mozilla Browser)
As of now, I ended up with Android_Revlotion HD-One_31.6 Stock ROM and have not changed for like almost a week from writing this feed.,
GPE is pure Android. If that's what you like, do it. I did it to one of my One's, and it was boring. I converted the other to the Developer Edition, and now I have Sense without all of the ATT goodness that they put on these phones. I really like it this way. Not hard to do either. You can get the Brightstar edition RUU from HTCDev. Then just make sure you either use BS__US001, or 11111111 as your CID, and relock bootloader. Since you are still on Hboot 1.44, I would certainly go S-Off before you do this, it makes it easier.
guys, so is it possible to transform my ATT HTC ONE to a GPE HTC ONE? Updates by google?

Yes, I did this and used it for about a month but I do like the sense features better.
1. Obtain S-OFF
2. Change CID to GOOGL001
3. Flash the Google Stock RUU which can be found on the XDA forums
4. Receive OTA updates.
If you need instructions to any of the steps above, google it.
******** First off, let me say, that I'm not sure where to post this, so I'm taking a stab here, but it might be better suited for the "Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE > HTC EVO 4G LTE Android Development" threads, that being said, let me know. ********
Feeling really lost, and could really use a friend *sniff*
I keep running into pitfalls, and I think it's because I just have bad timing. I know that the Evo LTE is getting close to EOL, and a lot of dev's have either moved onto to new hardware, lost interest in this device, or are now playing around with the new 4.3 RUU or KitKat builds for this device....
I've been heavily modded on many of my older devices, but with my Evo lte I've been stock (rooted, but still S-On) for over a year now, and I'm just starting to want to get more out of this device.
I did a ton of Google searches for ROM's and finally homed in on one, Beanstalk (the older 4.3 stable builds), but I'm just running into issues at every turn.
Currently I'm on Viper4G 3.1.7, purely because it saved my ass, when I tried going to Beanstalk while still S-On (whoops).
I'm currently S-Off with moonshine
HBOOT 2.09.4444
RADIO 1.12.11.1210
while I can now get Beanstalk to install, and boot, and GApps (jb-20130813), I CAN NOT get my phone to activate, I spent probably 4 hours and MANY reboots and re-flashes trying to get it to let me activate. I've tried both the "Stable (8/27)" and the "Latest Stable (9/17)" builds, both do the exact same thing.
So, needing a working phone, I'm back on Viper4G, and wondering, what is the best ROM to look at for this device?
I would post in the Beanstalk thread, but the dev has already said
I just don't feel the excitement for this phone anymore. Last Saturday I was ready to give this phone up...

so, I just don't know what ROM I should be looking at, and where to get help on these older ROMs when they have hiccups on install. Can anyone suggest a ROM?
Personally it seems like KitKat needs a little more time in the bakery before I feel ready to put it on my daily use phone.
I even thought about going with the 4.3 RUU right from HTC, but then I started reading all the bugs people where running to, and the fact that you can't downgrade has me worried, and so, like I said about KitKat, I think I just wanted to give that a bit more time as well.
So in a round-about way, I guess I'm asking, what ROM should I be looking at? Is Beanstalk currently the best for this device (I know that's heavily subjective) or is there another ROM I should be looking at that still has active members to bounce issues off of if I run into installation issues?

If s-off you can downgrade via older ruu, viperruu I believe but don't quote me on it. As for me I haven't had any issues on the new update. me personally I'm not a fan of aosp roms. My personal favorite is the 4.3 sense 5.5 from sin and chubbz. I've tried some of the aosp for the new format and those are the ones that I had data problems with. Viper does have a rom for the new layout as well as Yankees. But then again it's all user preference. Personally I would strongly recommend running the new ruu. Captain has a thread listing aosp roms built for the new layout if that is what you are interested in.

Being that you're S-off, it is possible to downgrade after running the 4.3 RUU. Also you can try updating your firmware. I haven't been on any of the older partition layout ROMs for quite a long time but I do recommend running the RUU. You will remain S-off and your bootloader may even remain unlocked. (Mine did) If not, it's not a big deal to unlock it again. Most of the limited development remaining for this device is based around the new partition layout. There is even a new Viper build. Just my ¢2.

Here's a tip for the OP. Flash the rom, then reboot into Android without flashing Gapps. THEN reboot into recovery again and flash Gapps. You won't encounter the Welcome screen, so you'll have to add your account through the settings. The same problem happens to me, no matter which AOSP rom.

You know, I did notice that. I didn't post that permutation of installation steps, but I did find that if I flashed either of the "stable" or "latest stable" builds of beanstalk WITHOUT GApps, I could get around the welcome screen, but I still couldn't place a call. Also I noticed that my PRL version was sky high for what I should have. Currently have 16018, but when I checked it while on Beanstalk it was something like 65002 (if my memory is correct) could this be causing issues too?
I never checked the PRL version whole on AOSP, so I truly couldn't tell you.
I have an HTC EVO 4G LTE loaded with DigitalKarma that I bought from a friend.
When I look at Software Information it says that the Android version is 2.3.5 which I believe is what the phone launched with. The Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE spec page on this site says that it's Android 4.0.3. Should I infer that I could just upgrade to Android 4.0.3 rather than a mod?
I'm looking for the latest greatest stable mod out there but I'm not finding any reviews or anything. What mod(s) would you recommend for someone that never wants to change mods again? These mods fall into different families that I know nothing about yet, so suggestions for mods of the different types might be good. Mods that seem to stand out in my searching are Dirty Unicorns, Beanstalk, and Viper 4G.
I'm not a developer or tester or anything; I'm just a guy that wants a good end user experience without a lot of complication and heartache.
Thanks people.
I must have asked a touchy question. The internet is too full of opinions to not yield one after a few hours. Let me start over:
It looks like my choices are Sense based (stock?) or AOSP based. People seem to be very happy with some of the AOSP roms but I've also seen that there have been problems with camera functions and menu buttons. Are there any AOSP builds out there that have solved these problems? And to what extent? Perhaps sense based is better for a noob like myself. I've read of some Sense based roms being as configurable as AOSP roms.
Most of what I have read about OSs for the 4G LTE were written before 2013. I get the impression that development has stopped for many of the mods that are out there. Maybe they were complete, or maybe the developers got new phones; idk. I'm looking for ROMS that are the most fully developed. I don't want to install a ROM that stopped development before it could reach its full potential (lacking features that hadn't been figured out at the time).
Do you have any suggestions on which mods I should try? Tell me what you like about them if you can. Or tell me that I'm a dumb ass and that I should've searched the forums and found the thread where someone asked the same exact question last week.
Thank you everyone. If it wasn't for you developers I probably wouldn't be able to have a smart phone at all.

IMO, Sense is the most stable on this device. The last official RUU that HTC released was 4.3. You'll find all the instructions you'll need in my guide down in my sig. There are more current Lollipop roms you can flash, but aren't as stable.

I haven't done anything yet but this helps a lot. Thanks also for the version recommendation.
I have one more question regarding the process. Since someone has already loaded DigitalKarma on this phone, should I follow one of the guides from the beginning of the process? Are there different instructions for a phone that's already been flashed?

Depends on what you want to accomplish. I suggest that you follow the guide from the beginning. The 4.3 RUU has an updated partition table for the phone which newer roms use. By flashing the RUU, you will unroot your phone. The rest of the guide will get you back to root. It's a little bit of work, but it should be fairly simple since the guide walks you through it all. If you really don't want the stability issues of Lollipop right now, there are quite a few stable KitKat roms that are really good.
