FIRST AND FOREMOST:

A great thanks to the following Gentlemen. I had been trying to get MMS/CricKet going on my eP1c for weeks. Outside of the "apn rar" and 1 or 2 tweaks ALL of this stuff can be found on the following threads:

I take no friggin' credit here people. I am in a situation where I can screw with things on multiple eP1cs at once and see what works/what does not. AND let me be clear: When I say "works" I mean I personally watch it operate with stability on 3 or more phones for over 48hrs.

The fix is in..............................

Well I am glad to say that I now have MMS up and flying on both mine and 1 friends eP1cs. Listen, I have done some serious ROM flippity on 3 different eP1cs for Days & Days & Dazes-es..... You can probably get this working on anything EI22, but the only ROM I have been able to Send/Receive MMS on like Cricket made the phone is SleeperRom.

I am currently running SleeperRom 1.0.03

It just plain works with the following fix

I can only confirm this method working on the $55 Android Plan, on SleeperRom/House of Samurai.

If you get warts, if your newborn pops out with a foot on its forehead, if your teenage daughter runs off with the meth-head biker from down the street,

you find your wife having Gang-Sex with cut-throat multi-nationals,

or if your phone takes a GIANT **** on you: You are just plain fuct. I will brook no (read: ZERO) responsibillity.

I have tested this on basically EVERY ROM. Sleeper/Samurai 1-2 COMBO wins. I have been sending 1500kb + sized pics with a quickness on the local (38515) prl here in Austin. I have not tested with other prls but I cannot foresee it not working. If so PM me and we will try to get it worked out.

This is a sort of pieced together thing-illy...............

Things you need:

Root Explorer or some-such app with RW capability, the mms.apk & telephony.db, the apns.rar, and Tokens V10 (linked at bottom).

You will have to unpack the apns.rar and edit the xml file you extracted with Notepad++ or equivalent editor.(You can get a trial notepad++ for free, Google it.)

And I would also advise backing up your APN settings once your data is good with APNBackup&Restore (free on market) just in case you fubar it.

First, extract the xml from apns.rar and open it with Notepad++. Replace the two instances of multiple XXXs with your phone number then hit control-s to save the changes and close Notepad++. Now mount your sd card to the computer and create a folder named exactly "ApnBackupRestore."

Place the edited xml file into the folder you just created, and then place the mms.apk & telephony.db, the cricket_10_edify.zip & the APNBackupRestore.apk file on the root of your sd card.

Oldrighty thence. Flash ROM/kernel.

Once you have the CDMA/QPST stuff done and your Data Connection pegged, boot into Recovery and flash Tokens V10.

After reboot verify Data Connection then use Root Explorer to go into system/app and replace MMS.apk with the one you just downloaded, changing permissions to match that of everything else in there.

Now open the Voice Dialer and say "Open APN,s" Once opened, edit the Sprint APN to the following:

NOW EDIT TO THIS EXACTAMUNDO:

Name: Cricket

APN: cricket

PROXY: not set

PORT: not set

User Name: XXX-XXX-XXXX@mycricket.com

Password: cricket

Server: Not set.:confused:(just delete the little asterisk and hit ok)

MMSC: http:/mms.mycricket.com/servlets/mms?X-Cricket-MDN=XXX-XXX-XXX

;) (your phone number for X's)

MMS Proxy: Not set

MMS Port: (leave at 80)

MCC: 310

MNC: 120 (I know what the other threads say. :mad:now fricking leave it 120)

Authentication Type: PAP or CHAP

APN Type: internet & mms

Now hit the Menu button then save. If the APN disappears do not sweat it.

Now back out to Homescreen.

Open root explorer and navigate to data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases

and delete the telephony DB. Kill kill destroy......

Replace with the telephony.db . Change permissions to match the other apks.

NOW is when I would delete Autostart.apk if I had it installed.

Use root explorer or whatever to install APNBackupRestore. Now open APNBackupRestore and backup your current APN(just in case, and write down the file name, you will make mistakes otherwise). Now delete APNs then Restore the APN you edited.

Reboot the phone.

Hella-Mary---------------MMS should be blazing.

Now, if you are getting google frame work fcs try redoing the process but instead of replacing your telephony.db, delete it-reboot the phone then open theVoice Dialer and edit APN (my phone will only work stably on EI22 with the attached db).

Also, I would like to give a "Universal" sized shout-out to Justin D. Maggiolo of The Independent Android Project. He has been more Down for .:android monsters:. than anyone. Thanks J.D.
