I've spent 20 minutes using the worst search facility ever encountered. If I have to type the 6 digit verification code one more time...
Anyway, changed from o2 to Fresh Mobile. I think I have GPRS working after creating a new connection
I guess I need to add new details for MMS, but can't find any
Anyone already done this ?

I flashed my phone over to DCD 3.2.6 Base w/Round 4 Reloaded, everything was great until I flashed the carrier cab... there isn't one for MetroPCS so I used what the phone was, Sprint... and now I have no internet =(
Can ANYONE Help?
Bump for help
Here is a Metro carrier cab i made.
Automated Metro PCS WAP and Arcsoft CABs for Windows Mobile CDMA Devices.
Motorola Q's DO NOT support Arcsoft so DO NOT install those CABs, you may only use the Carrier CAB..
I have added a new Version 5.2.32.2R1 and added Metros changes to my old (original) CABs.
1: Please delete/overwrite/rename the IOTA folder in device memory/program files (if exists, usually stock ROMs)
2: Please delete the HTC Guardian shortcut or equivalent from device memory/windows/startup folder (if exists, usually stock ROMs) and reboot your device.
3: Install my Security Policy Lifter CAB (you may or may not need this depending on the ROM you use) and reboot your device.
4: Now choose a CAB to install your options and explanations are below. Obviously reboot your device after installation.
The HTC Titan MMS Fix versions I only found needed on a HTC Titan with a Stock ROM. Most custom ROMs including Mine dont have the Default Connection string issue. MMS always works.. So you can user the "Other" versions if using a Titan with a custom ROM or another WM CDMA device. The Metro Carrier CAB is for people that just want to set up their data Connection on Metro PCS *it is not required for my cabs that have WAP in the name* . You dont have to do anything but install. No deleting any registry settings or connections for all of these CABs! They do all the work for you.
For the CABs with WAP or the Carrier CAB all you have to do after reboot is make sure phone is unplugged and open internet explorer. Navigate to a real page like yahoo.com and a prompt will come up. Enter your [email protected] and password is "metropcs" lowercase and no quotes. Blank domain, click save password. Then OK, or Done.
If you are going to try several of them just make sure to uninstall old CAB before new one. Easy.
Also if you are going to use these for another Carrier just remember that each Arcsoft of mine has the MetroPCS SetMdn fix in the start up folder. It woulnt hurt you but may as well get rid of it if not using Metro PCS.

Ryan Mogul Metro PCS Carrier CAB <--Just sets up your Metro PCS Data Connection
These CABs totally blow away any others created before. I spent a lot of time on these. A little taste of everything for everyone. Here is the other great thing about these CABs and they are the first of its kind. You do not have to edit your registry first! You do not have to delete any existing Data Connections! My CABs take care of all that work.
For example when I tested my new method out I created a few dummy connections using my phone. I also went into the registry HKLMS arcsoft and added a bunch of bogus keys. I then changed my connection to one of the bogus ones. Top and Bottom networks were bogus. Then I installed my Cricket WAP and Arcsoft 5_0_31_7 (non Titan Fix version my ROMs dont need default connection fix to operate properly). The CAB totally deleted all existing connections with the exception of the ones that are supposed to be there. My work network, secure wap, internet, my isp etc.. And it installed the data connection ready to activate using the browser like normal. Then I checked the Arcsoft keys and the bogus ones were gone. Everything was how its supposed to be.
The point is with all of these CABs you dont have to do anything but install to device memory and sit back let it do all the work. Absolutely great!
If it doesnt install soft reset your device and try again. Do not check messages first just reboot and install.
If it still doesnt install try another CAB, your Stock NOOB ROM is probably affecting your ability to install such CABs.
Your the man Ryan!!!!
Ryan.... you may have saved my bacon, player. I'm about to throw your CAB on and see what happens.

Well, you got me one step closer. I can now send emails via Gmail but still not internet. I check all my setting and I'm fairly sure I've got them set correctly. Any ideas? Whenever I try to hit IE, it dials the #777 connection I set up and it says connecting... then locating.... then... this page can't be opened because the connection has been lost. I updated my PRL (i believe it's 2002). Any ideas?
Thanks again.

Where did you find this ROM? His site is down and I can't find it anywhere?
He just moved his site, R4R Loaded http://www.sskusers.com/Titan.html
I followed those and they all come back broken.
Wow!! I found a copy of R4R.... omfg... it's so sick. I love it. the interface is so dope. I flashed it, hard reset, and ran the metropcs carrier cab... still not net. It must be a setting I'm messing up. I went through and made sure that everything was my number and nothing said sprint on my nam, w.ip. and all that but something tells me that there's something on that profile that should be nulled out. can anybody tell me what should be filled in and what should be empty (or zeroed out) in the settings?
Hey buddy hope this helps you.
Here is what I can suggest for you. The obvious things have to be set up right like PST settings. I would consult with udfxrookie as my CAB got him out of his jam with Metro PCS. Ask him about the PST settings and also you may have to Un-Authenticate and Re-Authenticate as described in my Cricket PST settings thread. Just use the Metro Values instead of the Cricket values. The HDR auth & PPP username and Password part.
This is a PM from udfxrookie

Yeah, carrier cab worked out perfect, back online and MMS settings are up and running, thanks again so much. Your a lifesaver

Now after making sure your Metro PCS PST settings are correct. Was the first thing you did when you are done flashing the phone and didnt touch a single thing (settings etc..) did you install MY Metro Carrier CAB and wait a little while then soft reset?
If that was fine then after the soft reset did you make sure your Phone WAS NOT plugged in to the Computer before attempting to access the Internet on the Phone to set up the @metropcs.com and password crap? The Phone needs to be unplugged from PC as when the Phone is plugged in its using your Home PC's internet connection and will not set up right.
After these steps you should be set to jet. Only other thing I can think of is you may NOT have a Data plan with Metro PCS, or may need to have the account refreshed. Let us know how it worked out.

Thanks loads for the help. I'm about to try the CAB again.
Wait.... what do you mean by ?go into IE and enter your name and password"? Where do you enter that at? I entered that into my connection info but not my proxy info.
Also... how do you get to the epst area with your ROM? My dialer code (##778#) isn't working now. Did I mess something up?

Make sure your phone is unplugged from Computer for next step. That is open internet explorer on the phone and navigate to a real webpage. yahoo.com etc.. then a prompt will come up telling you what to do, enter your [email protected] , password is metropcs. Make sure to click save password. Then that should be it.
You dont have to enter the proxy or anything... Both of my cabs already do that!! You may have to go into select networks and make the top drop down menu My work network, and Bottom one MetroPCS, you can fiddle around with those until you achieve what you need.
And about going into EPST use the diagnostic shortcut in start bar/programs/diagnostic..
You probably have smart dial on thats why you are having problems. Try ##778 call, ##778# call. If you cant get in with all three suggestions then idk. Reading my threads would of already told you this knowledge as well. I didnt even know you are using MY ROM. Here is what you said a couple posts ago, and R4R is not my ROM

just wanted to know if metropcs will know that im using sprint mugol as a phone instead of their phone if i flash my mugol using your rom and carrier cab? I'm thinking of switching over from sprint to metropcs. I want to try their first month free first before I make the switch because I want to know if that will cause any trouble. I like the $45 plan they have. Others who have metropcs if you can give me feedback on this as well that would great too, my sprint is expiring this month on 22nd and ive been itching on switching somewhere else.
Thanks
sprint sucks
I had sprint for several years thru my family's business and was never really impressed with the service. The business closed due to the crappy economy and I ended up having to get a metro. signed up for the unlimited talk/text plan and bought their samsung slider. I like the service and have recently learned that ppc could be flashed over. I now have the sprint mogul fully operational with mms and web and hands down I love it....everyone who sees my phone thinks it is cool as hell. looking to upgrade to touch pro in the near future. If u live in an area that offers metro then go for it. it might b a pain in the ass to get them to put the smartphones esn on their network but just go to one of the smaller stores and offer the worker a few bucks to put the esn in as a razor v3....that what i did.

Yea I agree, if trying to activate a Mogul on almost any CDMA Carrier you might want to lie to them and say your phone is a Motorola V3C, or if that particular Carrier doesnt have a Motorola V3C then find out what phone they carry that has 3G EVDO and tell them you are using that phone. This way their will be no problems obtaining EVDO or in some cases not being able to put the phone on the account.
While I am in here, I have updated the Metro Carrier CAB's because I noticed that a value was set that tells you when a text has been read by the other person. I had thought I didnt include that value but I guess I had a lot to do that day.
The CAB's are updated with Working Dialer Codes, and will get rid of that annoying System Administrator message letting you know your text was received and read. If you do not want to re-download the CAB then navigate to this reg entry and change the Value from 1 to 0.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\SMS
"Delivery Ack" Change value from 1 to 0
Also for those with a Mogul, I have a fully tested WAP/MMS Metro ROM that I cooked (in my ROM threads), you do NOT need a carrier cab or any edits. The ROM is fully programmed for WAP/MMS all you have to do is activate the internet first while phone is unplugged.. Like you have to on any Custom Carrier Cooked ROM..

so you mean they really can't detect what kind of phone it is through ESN? That's what I was worried about because when I log in to sprint it has a picture of what kind of phone I'm currently using so they know. That is interesting and at the same time exciting. Ohh can't wait for my contract to end. I saw a couple of small stores in my area about 4 or 5 think.
Do they allow swapping the phone during the free month so atleast I can be really sure it'll work with my mugol? I called their CS # line and the CS sounds really dull as if she doesn't care and keeps telling me she can't do nothing at all.

Fixed both metro cabs
I found problems with both of my Metro cabs and they are now fixed. Just make sure to delete any existing connections before installing a cab.
The problem was it not provisioning right and the web prompt never coming up asking you for your information. I got that sorted out so those that tried this and it failed. Try it again.
Cheers
Hey guys I would like to find an app or a way to have a look at my account settings for internet. As you may have guessed my internet is NOT working. WiFi works with no problems at all. Everything else works just fine..Calls,SMS,MMS etc.
I have narrowed it down to just needing to have it setup on my phone if you will. Would CDMA workshop be able to do this? If so..I have it installed but it does NOT see my phone. I am on WIN7 32bit and currently running CyanogenMod 6.0RC1 on my Sprint Hero...And MetroPCS is my carrier.
Any ideas suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! And YES I have searched for a few days on this...
I think if you are using a sense rom, there are some things that will let you change the account settings in the EPST menu. I haven't run a sense rom in 4 or 5 months so I can't remember how to get into it, but its like ##data# or something. then you will need your MSL code to get in.
I think people on cricket and metro though are using BetterCut in the market to launch the browser with specific WAP settings. But its been a long time since I read anything on it.
Hi,
I have a problem with sending/recieving MMS.
I know that this question was raised here million times, but for the last hour I was searching here, googling around the net...and no solution I found worked for me.
APN settings for MMS are correct, I tripple checked that. Tried many variation, change few settings, but no luck.
I read somewhere that when wifi is on, MMS wont work. But wifi is usually off in my case.
Tried to delete APN settings, and reset them to default....also tried to manualy enter APN settings for data and for MMS.
Also tried to chage custom user agent...now it is on default android.
Size of MMS wasnt the case because I was trying to send small audio files (about 20kB).
Here you can see logcat while I was trying to send MMS.
This lines from it I guess that are important:
E/Mms:transaction( 1042): Url: http://mms.telenor.rs/servlets/mms
E/Mms:transaction( 1042): HTTP error: Forbidden
E/SendTransaction( 1042): java.io.IOException: HTTP error: Forbidden
Somehow it is not allowing me to use MMS server.
After that I turned on setting 'use only 2G networks' in settings / mobile network and next MMS was sent without problem. Then I disabled that option, waited a little for connecting with provider to finish and tried again. MMS was sent succesfully again.
Then I rebooted the phone, and after that I cant send MMS with or without that option turned on. No luck after another reboot. In logcat now are the same errors.
Anyone have a clue how to fix this?
Bump???
Anyone has any idea?
Ask your network operator.
Also:
Before you start, you need to activate your handset for receiving and sending MMS. For handset configuration send a SMS with text ‘mms’ to 131. Once you have sent the SMS for MMS configuration, you will receive MMS settings in the form of an SMS which you need to save.
You can also download MMS settings on your handset click here.

That came to me, but wanted to try something else before that for few reasons.
First: MMS worked fine when I first started to use android (mostly sense builds). I haven't tried it until recently, and as I said in two occasions MMS was sent successfully, so if my network operator is blocking it, I guess that I couldn't done that in those two times.
Second: I bought HD2 on contract at my network operator 6 months ago, and already violated warranty at least 50 times, so it would be awkward to ask them why is MMS not working on my Android HD2
Anyway, thanx for the suggestion, if I don't get any other hint here, I might try that...
edit: I just read you second message. MMS is activated long time ago and I have used it many times. I know the correct configuration for MMS. I have tried the one that was auto installed at first boot, and they are the same as the one I have.

To be fair they don't need to know what OS you have on your phone. They probably don't even know the HD2 can run Android, or possibly even what Android is.
Navigate your phone to the link I supplied above. The problem of course is that the page may well be dedicated to some sort of WM application rather than Android.
I googled this and returned only some issues of application development for the iPhone and Android where people were suggesting to use different port numbers etc, hence my advice to ring your network operator.
I'll guess I'll try that. Thanx for your help.
BTW, your link was telenor site from Pakistan And I couldn't open it. Anyway I read several APN settings on Telenor Serbia site, for HD2, Desire, Desire HD, generic Android settings...parameters are correct. Also tried to change port to 9021 (it said that it is for older devices), with no luck....

Well, apparently your advice was the right one. I called call center, my MMS service was active. They deactivated and reactivated it, I deleted APN settings, did a restart, entered settings again and so far it works, even after few restarts....
