Best Rom for people on Cricket - Hero CDMA General

I have this hero and want to use it on the Cricket network. Here is what I have done: Only Rom that will install every time is the Fresh Rom 2.1.2. But I can not get the data to work on it. Web browsing and calls and sms work. not data. So the weather wont update or can't use apps that use data like Gmail or facebook. My work around is visit those sites on the browser. BTW on wifi everything works fine. I can't get the Bittersweet or damagecontrol roms to install. they hang on the boot screen. I have followed the Cricket setup I found on Howardforums. still no data.
Thanks

I have tried Fresh 2.1.2, Bittersweet and DamageControl ROMs on my hero for Cricket and have found that the Fresh 2.1.2 rom works fine. I have everything working except MMS. Just my 2 cents.

Internet browser [issue]

I have a really wierd issue with the internet browser.
It does not access data through 3G, but it is accessing it through wifi. All other apps can access Internet through 3G, but only the Internet browser cannot. I even tried with Opera Mobile Browser, even that does not work.
So currently i cannot browse any webpage using 3G. I really need this as 3G is the only thing i use.
The FW is XXJPM, and these are the mods i have done (in that order):
1. Root + Busybox
2. Live Wallpapers enabled
3. Deodexed
4. 5 lockers and extended power options mod
5. Gingerbread Theme from Kyrillos
I have just flashed it yesterday. Not done anything else. And only needed the browser after doing all these mods, so don't know if it was a result of these mods or was the issue in stock.
Since no-one replied - Wiped data/factory reset, Wipe cahe, still same issue. I reflashed JPM still same issue. Flashed JG6, same issue. Flashed JP2, still same issue.
I don't know what to do... Someone PLEASE HELP.

Set your access point correctly, the apn menu in network and wireless settings. Make sure you haven't installed any apn blockers, and finally, make sure you have 3g data enabled by the operator.

APN configured properly,
3G is enabled been using it for past 4 months,
Freshly flashed FW ... nothing is installed ...
Every other app can connect to internet no issues...
Only thing that i can't get is Web browsing (neither through internet browser nor by 3rd party applications like Opera for web browsing)
Tried wireless tether - The computer's browser is capable of browsing via the mobile's network...
So i don't think there is any problem with the service provider. It is at my end only and i can't figure out what ...

Data not working with used rooted EVO w/ CM7

I just got a secondhand rooted evo running the latest CM7 rom. I activated it with Sprint today but am having issues. I get no data connectivity. I don't want to get stuck with no data when away from my home wifi network. What is the problem? How do I fix this? Thanks.
edit: I have enabled data in the settings. Thanks

If you just activated it today, I'm assuming you gave Sprint the phone info and they said it was activated? You still need to program it from the phone and you can't do that on an AOSP ROM like CM7. You need to nandroid, flash a sense ROM and update your profile (and PRL while you're at it), then wipe and restore your nandroid.
So basically in Clockwork Recovery I need to do a backup, then flash a sense rom like MikFroyo? Would restoring my original stock sense rom do the trick to enable me to update my profile? How do I update my profile/where do I update it at? Also will my 4g work still? Thanks

Correct. Update all that stuff in Setting > About Phone (I think it's in there, been forever since I used a sense-based ROM) Update your profile and PRL. And 4G will still work.

Would restoring my stock sense rom work to allow me to update my profile?

Yes, any HTC EVO Sense ROM.
Just load up Sprint Lovers ROM and do it there. Works perfect for others I know of that did it.
Settings- update phone, run update profile first, then prl
FYI, i switched back from my EPIC to my EVO Friday and i had a lot of problems.
I ultimately got it to work but had to nandroid restore to the EVO before it was rooted, then after a few failed attempts did the ##RTN# and it finally activated after i did that.
Did the Profile update and PRL update and then nandroid restore of my previously backed up CM7.
Its working now. But short of the ##RTN# it was not happening.
similar issue
I am having a similar issue, but with my HTC Evo Shift. Not trying to get off topic, but can someone shed some advice on what my problem is here...
I have rooted my phone and was running Cm7 before with success. However, I decided to restore my backed up stock sprint Sense OS. I then decided to try the newer builds/updates of Cm7.
I tried using CWM from my phone (volume down and power). I wiped Data/Factory Reset, wiped Cache, and wiped Dalvik Cache. Then I installed Cm7 7.0.3.1 for speedy. It installed fine, but when loading up the data services do not work. I have mobile network turned on, phone and texts work fine.
I restored to my sense OS I had backed up and everything worked fine. Will this method work for me? Install Cm7, create a backup, then restore my Sense OS and update profile and update prl, then Restore my CM7 backup?
Or will I have to Reset Data, reset cache, and reset Dalvik cache before restoring cm7. My main concern is that doing the reset data/factory reset will lose my updated profile and updated prl information. When I try to install cm7 without doing that first, I get stuck on the cyanogen screen and it never boots.
Thanks for any help

Google dns resolution problems

All of a sudden my phone is unable to resolve google dns servers!
I was using miui 1.9.9 and am now trying cyanogen mod but am experiencing the same problems.
All other sites other than google can be accessed just fine using the stock browser. Am able to access google via opera mini browser.
I have tried a factory reset but the problem still exists. If i edit the /etc/hosts.conf file I can access the android market
I am on the crazyjohns mobile network in Australia.
Anyone have any ideas?
so bizarre. google will work for about 12 hours and then it will fail to resolve the server.
facebook also doesn't work when it fails. every other site i've tried loads fine.
i've now done several resets to the phone, and am now on lastest miui and stockwell.
just tried an optus sim which worked fine after it had been failing, then put my crazyjohns sim back in, and then crazyjohns worked.
thought i'd narrowed it down to the sim but i guess not. argh
Try installing the latest Stock Rom and then Miui back...There could be something wrong in your AMSS.
have tried various stock roms. still get the problem on the stock rom.
huawei website won't let me login currently, but i'm pretty sure it's latest australia roadhound one i flashed on it from home.
Huawei Mobile has pathetic customer support...downloads are not available through the website for more than a month now...
Check your PMs.

ICS on Nexus - Can't configure Google account

Hi all
I've just switched to ICS from the rom uploaded by kwiboo.
everything seems fine except that i can't configure my Google account.
when i try to add an account, i can't see Google account. if i try to add it as a corporate, i always get a message saying "unfortunately, exchange server stopped"
any one faced the same problem ?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Sounds like you've got a bad zip download or flash. Try wiping system, boot, data, cache and re-flash. Post this stuff in Kwiboo's thread for support.
hmm hey ask around the glaxy nexus people might just be a ICCS bug too
ICS wifi issue
Google account works fine with me, 3G is a bit unstable though.
Been flashin all the ICS betas prepared by drew and on none of them my wifi worked.
Flashed newly published AOSP ICS rom but wifi still refuses to work
It doesn't seem to find any of the networks around me. Any suggestions how to correct that?
Also, i've noticed that battery drain is huge with this rom. 12% off in just 23 minutes.
it happened to me too, when i tried my luck flashing ICS on top of CM7 nightly without wiping data.
it works ok when wiping like we should tho
Wipe it! Should work afterward
Thank you all
I wiped the cache first but it didn't work.
then I wiped the whole thing. It's working now.
thanks again.

No Data + Hangouts on Custom ROMs... Any help?

I have a GS5 on Sprint, running Philz recovery.
I've tried both Omega and Alliance, but I get no DATA or ability to send texts using Hangouts.
I've tried restoring APN's (using APN fix on XDA) from stock and loading them on the custom ROM... I get mobile data, BUT Hangouts still won't send any texts or MMS.
Is there any fix or something I am missing? Should I flash a modem or anything else when installing these ROMs??
This is pretty aggravating since I want a better ROM... Anyone?
