Did you finish the process with QPST after using CDMA? If your getting a fast busy signal like sound, it's more then likely Cricket not having your correct ESN. Do you have an account setup already and have provided them your converted MEID #?
My friend had given me the wrong MIN number.. for some reason data still worked. Changed the MIN and walla.. Find out another thing later that day though.. Google voice acts crazy with cricket on a flashed Droid X. Made it pretty much impossible for someone to call me. Would actually say the number is no longer in service. Tried to deactivate call forwarding from the info in account settings for google voice. it says to dial *740 on your phone and hit call.. Doesn't work. *720 WILL fix the issue though. Something to do with Cricket not doing conditional call forwarding. .

Glad to hear it's working. Actually, funny thing with Cricket and data...as soon as your done with CDMA, you will have data. Let's say you have a data plan already on your phone and you buy another phone you are going to upgrade to. You can still flash your new phone to Cricket and while your old phone might not have voice calls/texts, you can surf the web on both phones still getting perfectly clear 3G where it's available
YEA! I have a friend that i flashed a mogul and a Touch pro to cricket back in the day. He had the mogul activated and was still able to surf the web with the Touch pro. Nice little bonus i guess. lol

There used to be an online tutorial on how to flash a DX to Cricket but the whole forum has been down for a while. Its a lengthy process to flash and as you already know, it takes a long time if you don't know what you are doing 100%. Techs charge up to $90 for this flash for a reason...they know the ins and outs and have a guide that's taken time and patience to make. Like myself. I can flash any Motorola Droid to Cricket in less then 10 minutes. Its taken me hours to get that fast and lots of trail and error.
What part are you having trouble with?

not sure why the other person hasnt answered but I would like some help with the same issue. I can talk and text fine via the PRL change. I can use anything CDMAWS and QPST to edit my phone but after i try using a nvram backup from whiterabbit or whether i try to edit the settings using QPST the phone restarts as normal and u see the data bar going from 1x to 3g and the phone soft resets over and over. ideas? I would like to at least get the net working. from there im sure i could resolve the next issue.

CDMA or QPST should not be causing your phone to reset unless you accidently changed a setting in QPST. Which PRL are you using? Most stable is 49027 for the DX at the moment. Did you have these issues before the flash? Did you buy the phone used and then started the flash process? I hope you didn't get a busted DX

Which is an older PRL. Might even be geo-specific. How are your 3G speeds with the 3200? 49027 is the newest one that I know of.

Ahh, that must be why it works! I am on the $55 plan and my 3G speeds are consistent 1.2Ghz when stupid iJunk users aren’t bogging down AT&T's network. When speed is at it's best, it always beats out my girlfriend’s Droid X 3G speed on Verizon, not by much but enough to say so.
Im using 49027. I've narrowed it down to possible glitch. Upon entering the info for the proxy manually it goes into 1x then 3g then reader loop. Ivebeen using a stock backup to revert to prior tweaking so I can keep trying to figure this out if u have a exact method u use im all ears. Or just ideas. Im running out lol
Also one more thing, ive just entered in the proxy information manually via the cell phone and the phone hasnt given me a boot loop like it used to, still the internet isnt working yet so im going to go into QPST and see if just changing the mobile IP setting throws me into the loop again...EDIT: it sends me into a soft restart loop since its on mob+simp f/back again... catlog didnt show anything that i can see sadly. the soft restart forces the log to stop and doesnt show why it did.switched it back to mobile ip only and stopped the reboot cycle but no data at all ugh...

Just flash it in ROM Manager
I've talked to a couple of folks on the V10 token. Some say it has no relevance and one said it might actually harm your phone since it's not even made for the Droid X specifically. I tried it and it didn’t do anything. It came to be that my MNC in my APN was incorrect.
Without doing a full SBF on your phone, there array of issues you might have are to wide to diagnose. You need to start over and not use your backup. If the problem still persists then let us know but I doubt it will if you did the Cricket flash properly.
Have you changed your APN settings as well? I use anycut from the market to edit and save it.

iv read about this problem alot but mine seems a slightly bit different to the others so bear with me..
ok so i got my atrix and straight out the box the wifi works and gives me access to internet data on all my apps and the browser
3G works but only on the browser for example if i try too use an app that uses data like if i try to upload a photo on facebook or find some directions on google maps or try and open the android market.. i have no hope at all, just takes forever and times out or says theres no connection
and then theres the cell data, no 3g no wifi just full bars off cell data lol with this all i can do is send texts and call people no data nothing, if i try to access and program that uses data without 3g i just get a correction error..
i took my atrix too the tmobile shop too see if they could help, they said call 150 and speak to technition.. (worth the hour journey i know ) so i did, i spent an hour on the phone to him and we manually entered the apn settings, tryed reboots, he refreshed my account and told me to put the sim card in and out, make sure data options on the phone are ticked, i did everything he said but still nothing happened, and he couldnt think of anything else...
the last thing he said is that i can either get my sim replaced for a newer one because my current one is over 4 years old and if that doesnt work get a new device...
what do you guys think the problem could be? because i think the atrix is fine seeing as it can get data on all the other options, but would a new simcard really fix this? i heard that some newer cards are special "3g" simcards that handle data better but this could be a rumour i guess..
let me know what you think, any answers helpful or not will receive a thanks
Have you tried putting the SIM card in another atrix to make sure its not the SIM card or the current atrix?

rooting will not kill your network connection. that's something that you did. you need to provide a LOT more information in order to have people help you out,
what ROM are you on, what settings did you change, what mobile carrier are you on, etc. etc. this is a simple fix, but we need to know what caused it first. :good:

Well the person above me said it. You just made a mountain out of a mole hill by giving out your imei to everyone on xda. Anyway, have you tried a factory reset? If that doesn't work take it to Best Buy and tell them Kies wrecked havoc on your device and they can re-flash your phone for free. Don't tell them it was your fault.

I don't know what the problem is but you should be able to flash the stock firmware in Odin and get your phone working again. Double check this in the i9500, i9505, i9505G S4 forum. You can get the stock firmware from sammobile.com

He should be able to flash it himself. The i9505 is not locked down like the i337. It's an international version so he probably can't take it to best buy, which is what I was responding to.

Data enabled, but no internet connection
Hello,
I have the stock rooted i337 (AT&T), running on another provider network. I am aware that i337 is very difficult to do modifications due to the built-in by AT&T vicious locks to prevent using it with other network providers. This is the reason I did not flash ROM, because I am afraid to get my phone bricked and lose it entirely. Recently I subscribed to a data plan from a third party provider and I have 4G in the status line and HSPA in the data type, but I still did not have internet connection when WiFi was disabled, except that my Hotmail somehow worked. No other apps requiring internet worked. I spent a week researching the issue myself as well as working with the provider's tech support, but nothing worked. Two days ago, almost out of despair, I installed a new app called Opera Max, which is developed to route the unencrypted data to their Virtual Private Network in order to compress it and save the data use. As soon as I connected to VPN, all applications started working. I still have to turn Opera Max off when I use WiFi, because it disconnects my WiFi every few minutes, claiming that WiFi signal is too low. (My signal is very strong and no other devices have any issues with WiFi). However, this is a minor problem, considering that Opera Max saved my data plan.
It is still a mystery to me why Hotmail worked, but no other apps and why using Opera Max VPN solved the problem. If anybody has ideas, I will be happy to hear.
I must say that all data settings, including APN are checked, rechecked and correct, so this was not the issue.
Thanks,
Dan
I am also having connection issues after rooting my S4 i9505:
I am on a Telcel (Mexico) which is supposed to support 4G connections... However, ever since I rooted I can only access 2G/GSM networks. I have the official APN network configuration and I have tried two roms but still no luck...
Any advice would be most welcome.

I never realized my problem was due to network issues. No new device was registering EVDO, my dealer & friends tried everything under the sun to get the data working. Finally I called up customer care and asked, they said it's because of network issue, will ok after a day or so. It did.

Hi. I bought my phone through best buy and noticed I don't any of the sprint apps. Ive been trying to get the native hotspot to work but the option to turn it on isnt in the menu.
I'm rooted and tried the iceroom and stock versions of native hotspot. Also I've contacted another user who had the same issue, no hotspot option, also purchased via best buy.. Which is kinda odd. Does anyone else have this issue or know of a way of fixing it?
ya know, the same thing happened w/ me.......bought the phone from best buy and was looking for a hotspot feature and lo-and-behold, theres none to be found, even enabled dev settings and didn't pop up. I'm kinda dumbfounded and i really like the stock OS coming from the galaxy s4 and was hoping there was a hidden setting for it or if theres a rom that enables it because i'd be all over that lol

Extremely odd that it hasn't been mentioned by anyone else either. I cant even use any of the other tethering apps (wifi tether, barnacle, etc etc), I recieve ad-hoc errors, which I'm assuming is the issue with the native hotspot not appearing in the menu.
Still looking for a way to fix this if anyone knows how, would greatly appreciate it.

If you root and DL wireless tether you can't? Its a carrier option not an retailer option- makes no sense. Just trying to understand.. Contacting a friend now..

No. The phone is rooted and Ive tried the wireless tether app, pdanet, barnacle. Every wireless app shows an ad-hoc error in the log while pdanet gives me a htc sync error 2.
Thing is theres no hotspot option in the menu. Im sure its like that for everyone who bought the phone from best buy.

My question is: Why would a carrier do that? That is an upsell that they want to extend to every smartphone purchase, it's lost revenue. That is why I'm perplexed and have placed a call to my friend (MGR for VZW).

Apparently this issue is caused by not fully finishing the activation process for Sprint. Sprint base apps install after activation... my sneaking suspicion is they are installed via the "Sprint ID" app but Im not sure. Either try doing the activation again, or more likely to work is to do a full factory reset and make sure you do not interrupt the process all the way thru activation.
You will then have your tethering options back. Its likely the reps at bestbuy are bypassing that part of the activation process by interrupting it so they can finish your sale and get you outta there faster. Might also be unintentional on their part but who knows.
Do a factory reset.
noob question... will factory reset remove root and twrp? i have both, stock rom. i already backed up via twrp. however, will i need to install everything again afterwards?
You need to do a factory reset, no It will not loose root or twrp. As soon as you the phone boots back up, update prl and profile. Make sure you are in a good data location or are hooked up on WiFi. After updating both of these your phone should install all the Sprint apps and you will have tether option in settings

As bigpappa pointed out... it's not necessarily a best buy thing. It's the fact the rep probably didn't finish the activation process when setting your phone up in store. It could have been any store... it's just coincidence that the people with the problem happen to have bought from best buy.
lol i don't doubt that but i just had to give him hell because he was essentially trying to call us out who didn't have the tethering option and "debunk" it when it was just a simple statement that it wasn't there and was curious as to why, ive never really seen that happen before w/ an incomplete activation but its not like it really matters because theres tethering mods n **** out there that enable it anyway so just had to give him a little bit of hell haha
so... i factory reset my phone and it never went thru the activation process again. when i tried to activate device in settings, it said it was already activated. i quit and just installed the cm nightlies and now have wifi tether but im curious as what the fix could be.
After activation the Sprint Zone app runs and installs all the sprint bloatware and base apps. If you didnt have sprint zone load and start installing those apps, or quit that process manually then you didnt finish full activation. If Sprint Zone failed to load after the factory reset I dont know what to tell you other than to do it again.

After activation the Sprint Zone app runs and installs all the sprint bloatware and base apps. If you didnt have sprint zone load and start installing those apps, or quit that process manually then you didnt finish full activation.

Sorry, I muffed on the app name.... I meant "Sprint ID" app, not Sprint Zone.
Edit: check /system/app/ folder for sprintzone.apk, sprintid.apk, and sprintinstaller.apk. They may be there.

Neither were there when I went through my apps before... However, I already installed CM or I'd look. maybe someone else with the problem can take a look and test it out? Otherwise, I'm pretty happy with CM for the time being and takes me forever to switch as I'm still learning.
