trying not to sling this phone at the wall

Im still not over the 192mb ram thing but im trying to move on. Today for the first time i used the youtube app and wanted to share a video, cant log in. "connection times out..." i hit 'retry' several times, tried clearing data in applications, tried restarting phone. nothing. i can log in on my desktop. Whats the deal? Why is this phone so embarrasing to be seen with in public? thanks for any help

maybe it's not the phone, but the user?

what ROM are you using?

not rooted.
And i dont think its 'the user' because i know how to sign in, i was able to do it on my laptop and desktop. Plus the error reads 'server error...'

Yeah, I get this every so often when moving between mobile cells. Sometimes cycling between 2G/3G in wireless settings reinitialises the session and gets me back on, otherwise it's a phone restart.

I have experienced this as well and this fixed it in the past.

I had a Rhodium for about a week and now I'm using a sapphire and I hate to satire but I'd rather throw my old rhodium than the sapphire. Try a battery pull.

bummer, pulled battery but still getting:
"there was a network error while trying to sign in to **********. Retry now or press the Back button to cancel"
TMobile's sending another one under warranty anyway (for several other issues with this stupid phone), maybe that one will work.
I jumped on android's bandwagon by paying my way out of sprint and into TMobile when the g1 arrived and now Sprint and verizon are shelling out fantastic android devices and tmobile, who couldve and shouldve ran off with the android market long ago is sticking me with the already outdated MyTouch and Cliq and their big new announcement was the not-even-a-good-deal 'one price for unlimited usage' package. They better get their act together, very poor decisions on their part thus far. I feel like everyone's wearing reebok pumps and i have the generic payless shoe source version. I dont even like taking my lame-ass 192mb ram android device out in public, its embarrassing.

Is the mobile network access point set up correctly?
Can you browse the internet?
If yes, then the AP is set up correctly and the problem lies elsewhere.
I ask because, after I flashed a new ROM my AP wasn't set up, so i had to do it manually.
And no the mobile network AP is not the same as a Wireless AP.

[Nandroid] Mobile Network Sharing 2.1

I'm using DC v1 right now and there is no MNS (Mobile Network Sharing) as of now, so I have made a nand img for you all of the last rom that I used that had MNS working 100%.
I use this ONLY when I need to tether... which is often lol because I live on campus at the University of Miami.
I flashed Flipz's 2.1 v1.8-7 Eclair (which has working MNS) that I had lying around.
Stripped it for JUST tethering, got rid of Sprint crap & the works.
Includes,
Wireless Tether
&
NetCounter. Since there is no display on how much data/wifi you are using, NetCounter is a *free* program on the market that will tell you.
THIS IS A NANDROID IMAGE. DO NOT FLASH AS A .ZIP!!!!!
I am not responsible if this screws anything up. I just posted my nand image.
UNZIP FILE AND PUT FOLDER "2.1_Eclair_Tether" ON YOU SDCARD UNDER:
nandroid > Your serial # >
THEN APPLY LIKE A NORMAL NAND RESTORE.
I have never shared a Nandriod image before, so not even sure if it will work. I DID NOT sign into anything after flashing (google, market, gmail, facebook...) so it is completely stock.
Anyone willing to try this nand restore?
Just trying to help out those who miss MNS.
Also, post your results, would like to know if sharing nandroid backups could be convenient.

For everyone using DC and doesn't want to switch to DarchLegend, not that it's bad, just not wanting to make a big switch.

Ok, well if no one wants to try....
I have a question: Is it even possible to share unlinked Nandroid images from phone to phone?? that's sort of why this is here too, to figure that out.

I flashed an old Nandroid backup onto a replacement phone (different serial, obviously) and it worked fine. Only thing that I had to do afterwards was clear the cache on Gmail for some reason, though I don't think it was related to flashing between different phones since others in the forums have reported the same issue.
Oh...and I'm using EasyTether Lite that I'd downloaded from the market a while back. Works great. I hear that the latest version has some additional limitations though...such as no https sites.

I'm using DC 2.1 and my MNS works fine.
Start up wireless tether, connect with laptop or whatever, disable mobile network, enable mobile network, wireless tether works perfect.
Its a bug, but that is the fix. Only need to do it once I believe.

I'm anxious to see this too. I remember working on my Hero back when tethering on 1.5 discussions were happening, and really the only thing you could do in the CDMA Workshop (I think that's the name of it) was change your email address used as your id to the network from the one that's using PAM to mimic what was being sent during normal data usage. I think in the PAM communication was set blank, and the normal one was set to your id. It didn't work at all actually. It seemed that something else was built into the Android/Sprint stuff in Android that made that impossible. This is basically what you did, albeit through WindowsMobile's registry, to accomplish the same result in windows mobile.
I think in this instance, it's the other way around. Meaning that we have to get around it from a software standpoint so that it doesn't access the Sprint validation to determine whether to use PAM (Phone as Modem) line or normal line (even though it's just an id.)
This is what MNS accomplishes, it gets around that by appearing as normal data, and doesn't cause our Hero to throw error 67 data failure messages.
I may be completely off, but sounds feasible right?

Yeah, that and that the option isn't even cooked into Damageless' ROM

Error 67 on Sprint Hero. Data not working

I am on an older plan and I don't want to switch to a more expensive everything data plan since I only use my data plan for email, so I bought a Hero and changed the esn to match the one on my current phone, a Q9c. The esn switch worked fine and I now have phone/texts on my Hero, but neither 1x nor evdo works now. I get Error 67...something about username and password being incorrect. I have no idea how to fix this. I added the username in the ##3282# menu, but I didn't see anything about a password in there. My HA shared secret is 'secret' like I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be, but I don't know what my AAA shared secret is or is supposed to be. Do i have to find this in the Q9c and transfer it over? I'm completely lost. Anyone have any tips or ideas on how I can get my data working?

Im pretty sure thats why you have not got an answer!
Everyone is going to err on cautious side.

Yeah, the only thing worse then ESN swapping is murder.

I'm not asking how to do an esn swap...just merely explaining all the facets of my problem so someone can help me out. I understand it's a touchy subject, but despite any 'laws' to the contrary I don't feel what I did was wrong. They're both my phones and I'm not stealing service. I think it's ridiculous that Sprint thinks it has the right to tell me which phones I can and can't use on my plan. I wish I had a gsm provider...I don't think this would be as much of a problem.
Anyway, I really don't want this to get off topic. The only thing that should matter is I am getting Error 67 when I try to make a data connection. How do I fix this? Should I call Sprint...will they give me data connection settings? Do I have to find a way to get the AAA shared secret off my old phone? Am I just screwed? Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks.

I feel your pain. Try going into... Menu > Settings > About Phone > System Updates and Update Profile.
Hope it works.

Thanks for the tip. I tried it and the screen reads "The network is preparing your services. Please wait." Then the Error 67 window pops up a couple times, and after a few minutes the screen reads "The profile update could not be completed. Please try again later. If the problem persists, you may need to contact Customer Service. Error code:1012". Thoughts? How does this update work anyway? Does it use the data connection to update?

Had this problem before, spent hours with a Sprint's advanced tech support to try and solve the problem. The problem occured when I switched from one custom rom to another, then I restored a nandroid backup of the previous custom rom on top of it. My Hero starting bugging out after this. They couldn't help solve the problem, but they also didn't know about my flashing spree.
The only way I solved the problem was to RUU to Sprint's official rom. Even after I did this it took about 24hrs to register with Sprint for some reason.
Good luck.

Either RUU or reset to factory default on the phone.

I wouldnt call sprint. Them probably already know somethings not right.
You copied the MEID DEC number off your q9c to the hero.
So what sprint sees is a MEID DEC number of a Q9c
And they also see a MEID HEX of a HTC HERO.
I belive this is how it is, i could be wrong.
I say this because ive been told that the Hexadecimal numbers are specific to a general device (EG>>HERO)
And that a Decimal Numbers are specific to the end user device
So they got a Q9c trying to provision as a HERO

Correct me if I'm wrong but RUU is basically just reflashing the phone with the factory software, no? Assuming so, why would I need to do that? I'm working with a Sprint Hero that hasn't been flashed/rooted so I'm pretty sure it's still running the original software.
Anyway, I'm pretty desperate (and a hard reset doesn't seem to have fixed anything) so I'm willing to try anything if it has a chance of working. Is this the RUU I should use?

I had this happen to me the other day. Well, all of my stuff is legit, but Error 67 was poping up on both my phones.
They had me do this:
##3282#
Wait for a second - its slow
enter your MSL(Not sure if you need the old phones or the Hero's MSL)
GO into EDIT mode
Email address should be [email protected] - They had me change mine from FirstLast01 to [email protected]
Click Menu
Tap Comit(I Think, Maybe Restore..I can't remember)
Reboot the phone
Handsfree activation MAY kick off.
Got to Menu>Settings>About Phone> System Updates> Update Profile
Let it spin...
Turn the phone off, pull the batter for about a minute.
reboot the phone.

Tethering built into 2.1 RUU for the Sprint Hero has

Hey guys I rarely, if ever, post anything, but I made a discovery yesterday that I just tested and wanted to let everyone in on it. I have the **Leaked** but now **Official** "RUU_Hero_C_Sprint_2.27.651.5_R_signed_release" installed on my phone. My phone had not been rooted and I decided to upgraded from 1.5 to 2.1 yesterday (just couldn't get myself to pull the trigger sooner). While I molesting the new features I went to mount the phone as a disk drive and noticed there were some additional options. Once you plug in the USB into the phone, access the pull-down menu from the status bar and press "Charge Only". You will be greeted with another menu that, among other things, has an option for "Internet Sharing" select this and the phone will install some software on your computer. After that your computer will be able to utilize your phone as a modem. Now I haven't tried this over just a 3G connection as I live out in the country and my service is terrrrrible out here, but what I was able to confirm is that this works over WiFi with no problems. I turned off the Wifi card on my laptop and enabled the Wifi on the phone. A few moments later I got the connection indicator on my laptop (Windows Vista) and away we go. I posted this using the connection. Can anyone confirm this works over 3G?
Screen shots posted below. (Sorry about the blurry pics, I don't have the steadiest hands)

did you update with the RUU?
FYI, this is not "wifi" tethering, it's "wired" tethering.
good to know internet sharing was in the final!

If I understand your question correctly, yeah I updated with the RUU but I wasn't really interested in rooting the phone.

Yes it works, but you need to change your PRI

In other words, no it does not work if you ran the RUU. You would have to be rooted, flash an Eris based ROM, and then update using the SprintUpdate2.zip Damageless posted.

Aside from "Flashing an Eris ROM breaks your PRI" he wouldn't find much. Sometimes you just gotta let it slide and lend a hand.

Are you guys talking about the same thing he is? He said he ran the RUU and is not rooted. He said he doesn't get good 3g where he lives but what he did was turn off wifi on his laptop and enable it on the phone. He enabled internet sharing and it shared his internet connection with the laptop.
This isn't wifi tethering like we usually describe it, but he is describing a different situation than the one you guys are talking about. Unless I missed something in the posts.

You're both right and wrong.
I was assuming that he rooted his phone before updating to 2.1, thought he just made a mistake by adding the ruu part.
And he was asking about 3g tethering since he could do it over wifi.
To answer his question: You cannot tether that way if you ran the official RUU...that is until an exploit is found and you root your phone.
PDAnet will still work for you though

He probably has one of the few Sprint PRI's that allows MNS....bastage.....

Thanks guys, I'll take my laptop to work tomorrow and give it a try with and without PDANet. Thanks for all of the feedback.

What is you PRI number?

Pri version: 2.20_003

I have the same PRI number. How did you get the network sharing to work? Did you download any software?

yeah we need to find out if this new PRI will allow wired tethering, but I don't want to lose root
we need a few people (read: guinea pigs) to test it out

Ok, I got the network sharing via wired tether to work with WIFI. Now if I can get it to work on 3g.
Edit:
I tried to use the 3g network and it will not allow you to wire tether. It will keep popping up error 67 which "Data Call Failure". Boo.

I'm currently trying to figure out where exactly the PRI is stored in a ROM, so I can make update.zip's of different PRI's, to allow tethering.

I've been digging through for a while now, off and on, trying to find this myself. I PM'd flipz and asked, but haven't received a response, but i'm sure he knows how/if this could be done. I'm very interested if you do find something out, let me know!

The hero has always been able to share wifi using the usb tether. The 3G sharing will be disabled for you as always. Sorry to burst your bubble this is not something new. In fact, way back before we had root you could use a trick to tether the 3G over usb by turning off mobile network and then enabling the MNS while turning the mobile network back on. It was just a bug that someone found to bypass the 3G sharing lockout. After we got root no one really needed that trick anymore.

New Vogue.. No Mods. Old Service.. No Data?

Hello all! Its 'That Guy' Again
I recently bought a new HTC Vogue because my old one had *crud*crap*Stuff* on the screen. I called into Sprint customer service as always when swapping.
Everything seems to be fine. The phone is working. Texting is a-ok.. Data is a no-go.
This new Vogue ahs not been *modded*Tweaked*Flashed* (yet)
However when I launch an app to activate the provisioning feature, nothing happens. It dials the usual #777 and proceeds with the 'provisioning data services" msg. But after that it just disappears.
I dont not get a reply back or anything. If I try to refresh the browser to loop through it once more it just does the same thing over and over. Provisioning-----Then nothing
After 2 hours with customer service at Sprint we have gone through just about everything we could think of.. Still nothing.. The phone is practically brand new! Is there something im missing here? Maybe a bug in a certain version of the stock rom?
My old vogue provisioned fine previously and after I flashed to Froyo it was pure bliss.. However this phone will not take the data onnection O-o
If there is anything I can do/attempt to do id be forever greatful! And ill gladly donate my old Vogue to anyone who can use the parts.. It looks like super glue or something in a 3cm patch on the touch screen.. It still recognizes touch on ALL parts of the matrix, it just doesnt look pretty. The shell is kinda scuffed but over the phone works perfect =) This was one phone I didnt want to (ORD) to death.. Thanks in advance to anyone who gives insight on the issue!

Are you running on the most recent Vogue stock rom? which is 6.1

I am not certain of what the Sprint rep asked you to do, but I have a feeling that your issue lies in the EPST programming. You are likely missing username and/or passwords under the Connections section in EPST. Give it a go and let me know what happens. If you need instructions, let me know as well...
I would be glad to take your old Vogue off your hands if you are serious about giving it away.

Sorry for the lateness! I did discover that she(the rep) had seriously messed up the epst settings in the phone, however after recovery still no data. Its almost as if the phone hates it lol. Eitherway in that case its not as useful as it could be. Ill really only bought the second one because it was new and i wanted the screen to be scratchless I dont mind sending you my old Vogue especially since youre already on the east coast lol ill log in again when i get back to the office and we can swap details.
Thanks again for you help!

There really are 3 or four things on EPST that you need to modify to get the device working properly (in most cases anyways): MIN, MDN, Username, Password, and maybe a couple of others to get better performance out of your connection (cycle, priority, etc). If you flash to stock, why don't you try to do *228 to do automatic provisioning?
Let me know when you want me to give you the shipping details for your Vogue. Thanks.

Only thing that pops in to my mind is that maybe you bought the phone off of eBay? Was it a "Sprint" branded phone, or like an Alltel or something that you activated on Sprint? I would imagine flashing the Sprint ROM from the HTC website would handle everything, but just as a shot in the dark, you could try to install the Carrier CAB (http://winbreak.com/winmo/voguegoodies) for Sprint.

@egzthunder1 Go 'head and pm the info m8! Sorry for the delay again im just hardly at this location anymore.
@NuAngel I actually bought the phone new from some rich guy on craigslist. It was flawless and my vogue had the previously mentioned "crap" on the screen.
It is branded Sprint and they activated the phone just fine as far text and phone. They are saying the data is active however no matter what rom/radio i use it wont access the data network. With WinMo it always says provisioning data but it never happens.. the browser goes idle. if i try to access any data apps it tries to provision but never seems to finish the job.. Android rom same deal just no provision of course. And as you know the Stock Sprint rom has also been flashed with no success of accessing data. Everything else works fine and i have the same service with my current vogue which works perfectly everytime.
If the data issue cant be resolved it will always make an awesome test device.. However, while I cant dig up anyone else having the issue, someone is bound to..

PM sent. Thanks a lot!
Whatever is causing this, after reading your explanation, now I am positive is in the EPST programming parameters. Android builds here have APNs for Sprint in there out of the box (no provisioning required). But to connect, it looks at the PST programming (just like WM does). I would try to speak with someone else at Sprint and see if they tell you something else. There aren't too many things that should be modified in there for the internet to work...
