Hi,
I'm going to NYC early May.
Can you tell me if there 's a good prepaied SIM card that's compatible with 3g or edge. I dont wanna use roaming in the US but I still wanna use the data connexion to get news, weather, aGps and other infos.
Thanx for your help
BTW: I searched on google... too many commercial sites!!!
Cheers
No one really knows ???
the only one i can think of is AT&T, and im not entirely sure if its true 3G yet or not. sorry man, we in the states are a bit backwards.
thanx for ure answer

HTH!
Hi Guys, I'm trying to see if there has been any luck yet with getting the EVO on metropcs network. I heard that it was possible but didn't know if this was similar to the HERO process or what. Any insight or help in the right direction is greatly appreciated.
im interested to know if it can be put on the boost mobile network!
one sold on ebay on friday. ~1200USD$
I am guessing they hacked the MEID to a known boost acceptable one.
Some people have done it with the Sprint Hero, a few got data working, I think the speeds may have been poor...can't remember. I'm having trouble finding the thread, but I believe you have to make some changes (even on the Hero) through CDMA workshop to get features to work.
Howard Forums has better info on trying to go to a different carrier. http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php/1443845-BEFORE-YOU-ASK-POST-Read-THIS-if-you-are-a-beginner-amp-have-questions-about-flashing!
Have you called Metro PCS with your ESN and MSL? They should be able to tell you straight up if you can do it the easy way (don't think you can).

Yeah I've heard different things as well as seen proof on a few videos of it being on their network, but metro will not add them just yet so there is modifying involved I guess. I'll search a bit more to see what I find and post back.

I'm in the same boat! back to the lab I go!
Heres another thread in Aforums that shows a video of the EVO being "flashed" to another either cricket or metro pcs.
http://androidforums.com/htc-evo-4g/92379-htc-evo-4g-full-flash-cricket-metro.html
Does anyone know how someone would go about flashing an EVO so it can be used on another carrier???

ap3604,
I ran across this one earlier as well. They've got some threads over on HOFO where they say its very similar to the HERO flash. I have an Evo in hand so I'll get in the lab and post back results.

Wow... Where is that metro store located? I have a box full to flash over for that rate.
Yep thought I remember hearing that. But turns out it's when they were first opening I guess?

Ok,
All I did to get it to work with calls is use the MSL to load the MetroPcs Prl file to the phone. I found a guy in Miami that added the IMEI to the Metro system and activated the phone for $60. That includes the first month of service.
So, now I have an Evo working for calls and text on Metro.
I have no idea how to get the internet working.
Can someone help?

I cant help since I dont have an Evo yet to test but I came across this info that might be relevant before flashing to Metro.
Back in 2007, Metro initially only planned 3g data in 7 different cities: http://www.intomobile.com/2007/12/11/metropcs-planning-3g-service-in-seven-markets.html
Then in January of 2010, Metro decides to skip future 3g deployment in favor of LTE: http://connectedplanetonline.com/3g4g/news/metropcs-4g-leap-0113/
There's a pretty big gap in between these two announcements so I don't know how many markets Metro deployed 3g data since 2007 so I'll have to call them and find out... but I wouldn't want to be stuck on 2g for the rest of the time I had the phone (since they aren't rolling out more 3g and their 4g is LTE and not WiMax)
Feel free to correct me if I am wrong

All I need is the boost mobile Orlando file. You can install it by doing on your phone ##prl# select your prl then enter your msl code.
However make sure you get a prl that is for the sprint side of boost mobile (CDMA) and not the Nextel (iden) side of Boost. Now you are on boost mobile after a reboot. But getting a boost customer care Rep to add your evolution to the database may be another story... can try to auto program by doing ##786# enter msl code and reboot but u may need to redo the prl as it resets your phone to out of the box.
also look at http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/htc-titan/82369-boost-mobile-rom-issue.html

First off I want to thank you so much for your reply, I appreciate greatly..
I have a few questions tho.. So it is possible, like legit for me to process my htc Evo to work on the boostmobile network? Great but is there some sort of guide online? A step by step more orginazed? I don't wanna take any chances buying a 450 dollar phone

as to weather it is legit is another story. You can not force Boost or any other company to place your phone on their network. I was able to get my old touch diamond on vzw by placing a vzw prl on it and then doing a *2 and activing the phone like normal... now vzw has closed that loop hole. Their are companies like Cricket that will be nation wide. Cricket (aka leap wireless) will be selling Cricket phone at Sprint Stores in the markets that Cricket is not in now. http://www.howardforums.com/showthr...ireless-Cricket-strikes-MVNO-deal-with-Sprint
Well unfortuntley cricket isn't covered in newyork, so I can't go there. But as for boost mobile I'm sure it's true there's thousands of post and videos on YouTube of people proving it works. And they charge around 80 bucks to do it. I can't believe it's so difficult to find a way how to do it on the internet, as if someone wiped every guide about this out there

First, the border to where? Mexico, Canada, Cuba, Alabama, native Sprint coverage?
Second, the only AT&T towers your phone could possibly use are up north near Montana. They are formerly owned by alltel, 11114 should enable EV-DO access to these towers. All other towers are GSM and will not work with CDMA phones. The only reason the old Alltel towers (which are now being used by AT&T) will allow your phone to use them is because they are Dual-Mode GSM/CDMA hybrid towers.
In most (99.999%) cases AT&T towers can't be used by any Sprint phone.
EDIT: except maybe blackberry bold, HTC touch pro 2 and the Motorola Photon because they are GSM and CDMA phones (hybrid).
i will be goimg to mexico ok now so the 11114 prl is that all straight roaming or am i ok should i switch back... my cousin was on att but it was on roaming the entire time, if it cant be done then what is recomended for me to try to get service outthere i just dont want to be stuck buyn another prepaid phone outthere thats all..
11114 and 60680 will give the same international roaming.

01120 was discontinued. It was replaced with 11114 which pretty much has nationwide 3g roaming.

11114...it will even roam on networks not listed in the prl unlike 60680. Or activate a world phone such as the photon so you have the best of both worlds..cdma roaming and gsm.
Another thing to keep in mind is the Epic will not roam on the PCS band...they still haven't fixed that issue. So if there is cdma only in the pcs band you will not get any service.
Is there a link for that prl?

If you roam in Mexico its gonna cost you big. Search international roaming

Look in the dev area for a thread about how to load a prl. 11114 is in there.
Ok so my best bet is to stick with wat I got if it fails ill get get a cheap old Nextel n hypersim that biatch for any one who wants the prls go to cdma hero general forum they got all the prls ever
