I flashed my phone successfully over to MetroPCS, but MMS and the marketplace is not working. Data works however. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Wow my first post!!!!
Damage Control V1.0 or v1.1 (which is based off of the Eris) wil get you there. Sadly, this rom is no longer being updated, so us MetroPCS Hero users are stuck. I have tried all the latest roms, but MMS will not work. I am even willing to try an Eris rom, but I have not seen any thread that mentions if it's possible or not.
Good Luck.
Hey, if your ROM supports phone codes, you'll have to configure MMS using DATA (3282) which should be entered into the phone keypad as one of these
##3282 <dial>
##3282#
##3282# <dial>
from there, the MMS server is listed. Flashing to a different ROM will reset this.
Check out this thread for MetroPCS provisioning..

Edit: Are you using a custom ROM, or is it stock? If the unit is rooted and on a custom ROM, I know that Fresh ROM does support these codes (and is just a great ROM in general). For future reference, d-shade included in his ROM thread, a program called "APN Backup & Restore" to backup MMS settings and restore them in a different ROM.
Thanks for your response.
The unit is rooted and on custom rom. I personnally have tried all of the latest ASOP and Sprint based roms available. I have used APN Backup & Restore to copy and restore my settings from Damage Control v1.1 rom. No Luck. I have tried changing the DATA settings. No Luck. SMS works, but MMS does not. From what I understand, Sprint based roms do not have the messaging structure that MetroPCS uses. Verizon does, and that is why Damage Control v1.1 (Eris based) works. Voicemail is also an issue with Sprint based roms for us MetroPCS users.
If someone has have success with a Sprint based rom with MetroPCS, please share.
In the HTC messaging app, under settings will be "Connection Settings" which will show the MMSC, but not allow you to change it. I have never gotten MMS to work using AOSP/stock Android messaging.
By entering basic provisioning (DATA/3282), EPST should let you edit all settings. Let me know if the dialer doesn't open EPST. When EPST opens and you enter your MSL for edit mode, the MMSC is listed under "Advanced". Once you change the MMSC and go to Menu>Commit Modifications, it will tell you "No changes made" unless you change another settings (I just change the SCI to something different) I was able to edit it on the Fresh ROM I posted earlier, and my carrier uses Verizon's method for messaging.
For the voicemail issue, refer to this post. Voicemail is usually the only issue I have flashing Sprint ROMs.
Thanks again.
Believe it or not, I have tried everything you suggested already. Despite that, I did try the rom you suggested again and double checked all my settings. I don't know what is different about the Eris rom, but Damage Control v1.0 or v1.1 is the only rom that is fully working for MetroPCS Hero users right now. This rom is great, but my only fault is that it is no longer being upgraded, and I cannot find an ESPRESSO lockscreen that prevents the menu button from unlocking the phone. I am not a big fan of the vanilla or other lockscreens.
Thanks.
Not sure what to tell you at this point, but I'm positive there isn't anything you could be doing wrong. I'll go ahead and try a Damage Control ROM and see what happens, since it is Eris-based. And I honestly don't blame you at all about your lockscreen preference. Thanks for your feedback, though. Are MMS and voicemail the only problems you're having when using a different ROM?
Yes. MMS and Voicemail are the only problems that I am having with other roms. Depending on the Rom, voicemail works if I flash the PHONE.zip file, but I still get the annoying voicemail connection message . With AOSP roms, the voicemail works perfectly. MMS does not work with either.
Since VM is a known issue, I'll just say to focus on MMS for now - is the MMS server in the thread I pointed out earlier the most recent one (that you're using on Danger ROMs)?

Yes it is.
For the record, this is the thread that I am following.

As I said before, I'm not on MetroPCS right now, so I have no way of testing any of their proxy information. There is only one other thread I've noticed so far, in the Eris forums.

i was wondering if i could get some help, i dont care about mms but i would like to get data working on my hero which has talk and text working just fine. I had web and mms but i switched roms and they both stopped working. I've followed every tutorial to a tee and no results. I also tried manual qpst changes and all i managed to do was get a new error code about pcs vision incorrect password. Please someone help!
Hi guys,
Need some advise on how to deal with this issues.
When I use stock Rom, it's all good. Perfectly fine. No drop outs on mobile network.
But when I flashed custom rom (Liquidsmooth, PureNexus, Chroma etc..), my mobile network keep dropping out every 1 minute. I'm on Optus Australia network. I tried all different rom and it's The same issues except stock rom.
Checked the radio for all stock and custom rom after flash, all the same radio.
Please advise what else can I do to find out what's the root cause?
Cheers.

When using custom ROMs, ensure your APN is correct.

It's a known issue for some folks that data either doesn't connect, I'm one of those unlucky N6 owners that has had that issue.
My issue was with all cm based Roms wouldn't or couldn't connect to my carrier and all aosp based Roms would connect and hold a data signal without any issue.
I believe there's commits that are not merged in cm based Roms.
Also I had to flash the M preview radio as well.
It was trial and error for me to see which Roms would connect.
I flashed every single Rom and above it all I have a moto 360 that really is a pain in the a** when flashing any Rom.
The only solution I had now is to connect to DATA instead of WIFI everytime when I restart the phone. Let it connect for around 5 minutes, then switch to WiFi.
This way it won't drop out anymore.
Till a better solution is out, I guess I just had to keep doing this instead.
@flashallthetime , thanks for your input
i unlocked my sprint htc m8 by changing the cid to 11111111. after that network appeared in the phone, but i could only make outgoing calls, no incoming calls were shown on the phone, so i decided to root the phone thinking maybe it would solve the issue, so first i tried installing the ARHD rom, which was not made for sprint, so then i tried the nusenseven rom, after installing the rom there was no network in the phone , it was always searching for network , and i couldn't even search network manually as those options were greyed as it was only searching for network, but i was able to receive incoming calls on the phone without network , but coudn't make outgoing calls due to no network, same issue happened in the skydragon rom,
anybody help me out to solve the issue please.
Have you tried ##72786# or ##786#(if you have msl code)
And press reset at top right
I am having the same or similar issue. Since installing skydragon I have a constant message in my notifications saying that it's "unable to establish a wireless data connection". No problem with wifi.

after pressing the above codes nothing appeared, where to press reset
Sounds like your missing EPST options, that's odd, can you flash Stock Rooted ROM and do that code.
If you flashed a rom that was not Sprint compatible (ARHD is not as far as I know) you messed up the partitions and the only way I know of to fix it is to RUU and start fresh.
ok, i again started again with stock and then a compatible rom with htc m8 sprint that is skydragon, still the phone has no network but i'm able to receive call, i don't know how.
in stock rom i was getting network with no incoming calls.

Did you RUU?
If not it's not going to fix you issue.

Hi.
I can't get mobile data to work on custom roms.
I clean flashed Havoc, pixelexpirience and ZenX on top of xiaomi.eu. On all of them same problem, no mobile data. Phone can see my carrier name, I can call and text. Under the quick tile to turn on/off data I can see 4G icon. I'm currently on ZenX.
I tried reflashing rom, flashing xiaomi.eu and custom again (it's all fine on MIUI), wiping ALL data, restoring defoult APN, adding my operator APN manually.
Nothing helped. Am I missing something? Is there some zip to fix it? Tried looking for solution but no success.
I'm desperately looking for any ideas and fixes.
What Network operator do you use?
