Hey guys,
I have a 32B my touch 3g and I was following http://theunlockr.com/2010/04/26/how-to-root-the-htc-mytouch-3g/ this guide to root. I flashed the sappimg.npg to go from 1.6 -> 1.5. The problem is, I can't seem to activate the phone! When I turn on the phone after the flash, I get to the http://techblog.aasisvinayak.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/device22.png Touch android to activate screen. The sim that I'm using does have a data plan. I used the sim in my roomates phone and he is able to get on the internet.
When I type in my google info, it tries to connect to the server, but fails and I get this error:
"Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server.
This could be a temporary problem or your SIM card may not be proivisioned for data services. If it continues, callCustomer Care."

Just skip that step and activate your wifi. After you activate wifi then connect to a wifi network and sign in with your gmail account. I've encountered this problem when I've flashed a new rom. I guess when you flash a new rom you disconnect from the network so you don't have data for a bit. Don't worry your phone will automatically connect and keep a stable connection eventually. Just be patient.
I can't connect to wifi, I'm still using the stock ROM.
What? You can't connect to wifi using the stock rom?

Unfortunately not =/
That doesn't make sense. You should be able to use wifi even with the stock rom. I'm not sure why you can't sign into wifi with the stock rom. Just try signing in a couple times and eventually it'll ask you if you want to sign in later. Then just click yes. After that connect to a wifi network and sign in from there.
The only way to register your handset is through cellular data I don't think there's away around that if your root process was successful I'd suggest trying a different rom or wiping and trying again or let your phone set for awhile maybe its having trouble registering with the network this does happen so be patient

I was in the process of rooting, but didn't get very far. I downgraded from 1.6 to 1.5, and thats when the data stopped working.
It seemed to registered, but no data is being downloaded =/
Sounds like a step was missed somewhere I would try wiping and starting from scratch and make sure your magic is a 32b an not a 32a also when yöu install your rom make sure its something stable for your version of magic

I'm using the right steps for the right version of the phone. I haven't flashed any cooked roms yet, just the standard ol' stock one.
I'm new to flashing custom roms and what not. I used odin and flashed everything to the point, csc, modem,pda,pit the rom works awesome but i cannot for the life of me connect to the internet. the 3g icon or h icon wont' show up. in the status it says my network type is gprs and i'm roaming and my mobile network state is disconnected.
I'm with fido, the phone is unlocked i have never had trouble with data or anything until i flashed to a custom rom.
Anyone have the same problem or suggest how to fix?
Data Conn. Issue
Hey mate,
Have you gone into 'Settings', 'Wireless and Networks', 'Mobile Networks' and then 'APN settings' and entered your appropriate settings?
That should fix it if you define the correct access point.
Alex
hey man, yeah i did all that stuff, went in there, found my carrier, put in all the apn settings i can find and still nothing. when i put data roaming on then i get data and the edge icon comes up.
Hey dude,
That sounds strange, flashing custom (or even release) roms is never a guarantee especially with weaknesses in the way that ODIN communicates with your phone, What I would do is Re-Flash your stock rom through ODIN then use the "quick" install method from Darkyy.
I am running 5.6 like you, and I had issues doing it through odin (I kept getting random FC's), additionally, the rom; if installed from CWM will keep your apns and apps e.t.c. along with many settings and configs from the base rom you're using before the flash.
That is the best advice I can give you.
Alex
My config is a follows:
I9000 International
16gb SDHC
500HZ Hardcore Kernel
Darkyy 5.6
Whats the process for reverting back to stock 2.1 eclair rom?
Did you keep a record of your firmware version before reflashing?
If not, you may have to ask someone on here what your base firmware was.
Are you familiar with using ODIN? (The software used for reflashing)
Alex
I am having same issue to...I used 5.4 from Darky and it works well...same with DocRom 4.0 works and the next 5.1/6.0 don't work.
Both Darkys and DocRom are based some JPX....which seem to be root cause..
I've have the same problem. Tried eveything but still didn't work. So went to Samsung Service Centre to have my SGS firmware refresh. I notice after the refreshed same issue of data com missing. Told them and they when into the SGS to select the telco operator setting selection. Now data com. working well. Anyone know the SGS handset setting code? I want to reload to Darky's v5.6 again.
hi folks
i have the same problem... my provider is a virtual provider in the network of our biggest provider here in austria. i was using doc's rom based on xwjpa firmeware and everything worked fine without enabled roaming options.
since doc's rom is based on the newer releases (xxjpx, xxjpy) i' only able to use data connection if i turn on roaming. it also shows me that i'm in a roaming network. i guess the cause are the xx firmwares. xw and xx are european firmwares but i do not know the differences between them. maybe someone has more information about the differences? currently i'm using xwjpa firmware because i don't want to use my phone with enabled roaming options.
hey um i'm having the same problem and thought replying here would be better than starting a new thread.
well i installed the rom without having any idea of what i was doing *stupid idea* so i didn't take note of my original firmware.
i didn't use odin to install the rom just clockwork recovery and the rom and everything installed fine except my data network. i can get signal, call, receive the only problem is i get no data transfer. any help much appreciated. if anything can someone help me step by step to reboot my phone to original?
just for future travellers
Sadly this isn't my own gem, but yeah. hold the power button down, wait for the shutdown menu, above the airplane mode there is a data network button, and it'll most likely say "de-activated" if nothing else has worked. Its ok to feel like a chump, I did after rehashing the hell out of this phone for a few days ( the wifes phone, my phone does exactly what its told. )
Anyway, yeah, this will probably be the reason for the lack of the icon "G", "3G" or "H" where it should be.

I recently installed win 7 on hd2 and activated, everything was working including market but now i dont have 3g service only wifi
i tried setting the apn according to tmobile u.s. Settings and did not work .i tried using the app for the market connection set up and ran the app it said that the device has been set up .but no 3g either..PLUS I CANT SEND PICS IN MY TEXT MESSAGES .any ideas

do what you have already tried but set it for a different network, restart, then change it back to your actual network, also try reseating your SIM card.
Worked for me, hope it works for you too!
what type of apn setting do you recommend
initially change it to anything other than your network
so, if i was on orange, i would change to O2, restart, then change it back to orange and restart
HTC tool should help with your settings or use google
so, google "T-Mobile US APN settings" without quotes if t mobile US was your network
i tried what you suggested no luck in the u.s. the sttings are suppose to be epc.tmobileus.com but still does not work
long shot but try giving your SIM card a clean and stick it back in, another longshot is try installing WITHOUT an SD card, just curious if that is another one of the issues that can happen with a incompatible card, yeah i know the rest is working fine but try it and see, you never know!
other than that im running out of ideas...
did you download the htc data connection app from marketplace, or can you, to automatically configure your hd2 for tmous?
why were you manually trying to configure your hd2 for t-mobile network?
best bet is to re-flash since it worked before.
the 3g service stopped working when activated the phone .... market works but i can only log in through wifi and i did download htc connection set up and ran the app it said that the apn was set . but when i tried to run internet explorer its says no data service.

use epc.tmobile.com... That's the one I used worked fine. Now I just use connection setup to setup my mms messages also.
Also stupid question is the 3g switch on in settings.
I've got the same Problem....
I'd the same Problem on Nand Android so i decided to switch to win7. But same Problem here. If i have 3g enabled i got no Service at all. If i disable 3g i got Service and Data Connection begins to work.
See this Thread in Android section:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971920
So any hints how to get 3g working?

start again,
flash a stock original ROM for your device, put it all the way back to WM6
you will need to SD card flash this ROM
then go through all the steps, HSPL, Radio, magldr then try WP7
when things dont add up its often best to start from scratch.
I've done exactly that when i migrate from android to WP7. The only thing remains on the Phone was HSPL. And after all (installing MAGLDR and so on) the Problem persists.

if hspl was still on then you didnt stock original ROM flash via SDcard
you need to download an official ROM from whoever sold the phone
doing that will remove hspl, reinstall the spl, radio and the ROM
make sure its an old ROM with a 1.4x SPL, then install hspl again, 2.08
Ok I've done what you tell me.
I have a Device from Vodaphone Germany and i can't find any Rom with 1.4x. The oldest i found was 1.72.
I extracted the Rom and copy the LEOIMG to the sdcard. Power on Phone with Vol down and flashed the ROM with sdcard. Reboot the Phone and all cames up fine.
Power down Phone and wen't into SPL Mode, installed HSPL, updated Radio to 2.15.50.14 and installed MAGLDR 1.13.
After this i flashed my WP7 Rom and let it boot. Choose all my seetings in the wizzard. Enter my LiveID credentials and tapp on login. And after a few seconds i get the Message the Phone could not Connect!
But it seems this is another issue cause i got a big "H" and full Service.
Thank you very much!

am i right in thinking that was different to the previous problem, where it would only connect with 3G disabled?
if thats the case that happened to me as well, i had to do the HTC connection wizard trick, change it to something else, restart, change it back again, restart
everytime i flash i have to do that which isnt too much of a pain
Are there any fellow Sprint users on the MXPE? If you are, are you running an AOSP ROM? Have you ever gotten data and voice roaming working on AOSP? If so, how'd you do it?
Yes, I've had data working on the orion rom (which I believe is cm13 based). Check your apn's, the one containing n5......something.or.other is the appropriate one IIRC.
Mobile networks should be cdma/lte.
Network data and voice is just fine for me. It's all roaming that's messed up. Will check apn's next time I flash.

I must be blind, but where do we find the APN settings on the phone?
^^It's a byproduct of "stock" software. APN's access is readily available in aosp/non stock roms.
The function is still there in the stock rom, but requires an extra step or two to get at it.
If you use a third party launcher such as nova, you can add it under activities. Long press a blank area on the home screen, select widgets, then swipe to the left on the top most row, select activities. Scroll down and open the settings entry then look for APN.
Or, use this - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.szalkowski.activitylauncher&hl=en
I'm on Sprint with STOCK/LOCKED/UNROOTED and this phone flat out refuses to roam all over the US. Specifically what APNs should be in the STOCK list (I used Nova to access APNs) and they look to be there.
^^I don't think the apn has anything to do with roaming. Have you checked your roaming options under the main android settings?
Are you on a plan that provides roaming? Roaming properly enabled on your account? Updated the prl?

I drive semi truck, my usual run is Wisconsin to Washington state and back. My phone, for the most part, will switch into roaming using TruPure. Two runs ago my phone wouldn't roam at all. I tried toggling data, updating PRL and the device config, eventually doing a clean flash, and still had no roaming. Eventually I ran the stock restore tool, flashed the modem separately, and did *#*#72786#*#* in the dialer. I'm back to roaming on a stock based ROM again. I haven't tried an AOSP rom since posting my question a few days ago.

Edit: I also used *#*#rtn#*#*
^^Did you post about this in the rom thread? I'd guess one of the removed services is somehow affecting roaming.
I wanted to do a bit more trouble shooting first. Before my next to Washington, my plan was to flash AOSP and see if roaming was working again. I forgot to note, after confirming roaming was working on the stock ROM again, TruPure was flashed and was roaming properly too. My thoughts were that somehow Sprint provisioning got screwed up or a flash somehow messed up the modem.
When you flashed truepure again, what type of reset did you do (if any)?
Sprint's provisioning system is poop. Their system is a 2 part authentication. Your voice/text is tied to the device meid (not imei), data is tied to the sim card. This seems quite @ssbackward to me, considering verizon, tmo, att all associated your number with the sim card. While the device still transmits its imei during registration, no user intervention is needed when switching device. With sprint you need to log into the account and update the device too.
It seems each time you do a clean flash (wipe userdata), the software attempt to perform the 'handsfree' activation (or its equivalent on the moto x). If you perform a factory reset from within android, a number of carrier parameters get erased. If you a factory reset from twrp, they get retained.
I'm also on sprint but through ringplus, so no roaming included.
After running the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3199905
[WINDOWS TOOL][5.1.1]Moto X Style/Pure Edition "Restore-To-Stock-Tool" , flashing the modem separately, and doing the dialer codes, all was good with roaming. Roaming again worked with TruPure. Nothing special was needed. After restoring stock and reflashing TWRP, I just flashed TruPure like any other rom. No special steps were needed.

Sorry for the long delay, been all over the place.
Yes plan provides roaming, and is enabled. PRL updated. I verified with Sprint customer care that the account is provisioned with no errors so I should be good to go on the Sprint side.
Im going to try what Misfit0313 did, restore to stock and flash modem. I'm assuming the return to stock takes it back to Lollipop so I'll get the MM OTA. Are you able to flash a modem on MM? Maybe the Modem side got corrupted somehow on my stock phone when it upgraded to MM right out of the box.
Buried in the Restore to Stock tool thread, there are directions to flash the modem separately via ADB. For some reason, the tool broke WiFi, necessitating the need for the modem reflash.
I just took the OTA to come from LP to MM

I flashed this fix on a clean install and AOSP roaming is working.
So roaming is controlled by the apn?? Interesting. Didn't realize that was the case.
Are you the same misfit on the freenode network/evo4g lte days?

Dude, yep its me. I don't stop in there too much anymore. Always bs going on in my life. Hobbit problems.
I tried to change APN settings as you suggested in AICP rom, but I kept getting a message like 'user doesn't have sufficient privileges to change settings'. That's why i gave that old ass fix a try. Reported in AICP thread. Went to south TX this week and I have no issues to report with voice or data roaming on AICP.
Still have the Infinity or did you move onto something badder?

i can't set APNs or even make calls/texts on AOSP ROMs like Dirty Unicorn and PureNexis with Sprint...Flashing this zip fixed that for you?
Edit: Meh...just tried clean flashing PureNexis with the sprint.zip fix and still cant make calls or set APN's
My question: Is roaming working on stock based roms for you?
Stock roaming wasn't working for me, and Sprint insisted it wasn't at their end. After doing all the steps I mentioned previously, stock roaming finally was a go. I still had to flash the sprint.zip on a clean install to get AOSP roaming working. Without roaming on stock, there's no way roaming will work on any other ROM.
So I have been using MetroPCS on my Moto G5 Plus since I got it. Well today I went and activated my device with the Sprint network... It wasn't working when I left the store, and I told the rep how it was modified (using RessurectionRemix 5.8.4 Final), that I would work on setting it up.
Well, so far no success in activating it... Have tried changing network mode to CDMA/LTE and messing around with dialer codes, still can't get anything besides "emergency calls only."
Anyone have experienced getting this phone activated with Sprint?
Note: they did tell me they didn't have the exact, or "recommended," SIM card for my device, and that it was a secondary option they used in the system(?).

I am using that SIM, got it working when I reflashed stock. Did not work again when I restored RR, at least fully, as I was able to get data to work minus SMS/calls.
I'm on Sprint. No issues with any Roms.
You need to be on a stock build for the initial setup, because the custom roms remove all of the PRL stuff. Once it is setup once, flash whatever you want.

It doesn't stick after I flash a custom ROM
That's really odd. I don't have that problem...
Make sure you have APNs on the custom rom. I saw a problem a while back that the custom rom didn't keep the APN for some reason, and I had to put it in manually. Different device, but same problem.

Can you tell me what your APN info is? I have data and calling working now, but no LTE option (see screenshot)
I have mine set to global.
I had this same issue with my s6, and I ended up having to factory reset the phone, and redoing the PRL update, and the option finally came back.
Just to follow up, I was able to get full LTE and calls to work by flashing stock ROM, updating PRL, and by then it was provisioned on the Sprint network.
As it stands now, if I reinsert my MetroPCS sim card, it is provisioned for MetroPCS no problem, but I do have to reflash stock again each time I want to provision for Sprint.
So thats how I am going to run things for now, by making backups and getting it provisioned using stock before restoring.
this worked for me

theres an ap on the play store called apn backup and restore. install it on stock rom . b4 using it u need to go in system/apps and move the apk to system/priv/apps once moved changed permissions to r-w-r-r. after that a quick reboot and open app change setting to disable ics check and do a backup . once finished do the same thing on new rom and mine works flawlessly. im on boost which is also on sprint network. good luck hope this helps
