im going to wait for them to make the new one on teh latest MIUI. it will prob be this friday. they only take a few days to port and translate
[EVO 4G Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
I tried multiple roms (myn , azrael and so on..) i must say cm6.1.1 metro edition is the slowest concerning data , i timed everything and there is like 1-4 min delay .

EDIT: HOWEVER CM IS BEST BATTERY SAVER COMPARED TO ALL LOL
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
i used CM6 for a while and it worked just fine if not better than sense lol....idk some areas are just picky i guess lol

though that script is only meant for sense based roms =P
[EVO 4G Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
i am aware about the scrpt thats why i used cm metro edition lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
ahh k lol...no the way u made it sound that u said u used the script. and yea idk why it would go slower on CM. i havent experienced that issue if not stuff was better on CM because of i didnt have the problems with youtube and pandora...basically anything that streams...imma see if i cant get someone who knows how to read logcats this week with a friend of mine who does stuff for cricket. if we can figure it out then i can fix that aswell =P has to be a way since it worked fine in 2.1 and CM and any other rom not based on sprint otas lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
I am kinda lost lol i am running myn rom at the moment wich is based on srpint ota everything works (pandora , youtube and so on lol)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
then u must live in a true 3G metro area then lol...cuz it sure doesnt work for me unless what were missing was added in myns rom. ill check that out later as im in school at the moment.
[EVO 4G Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
I wish i lived in a 3g area lol (kissimmee , florida) , you should check it out like you said maybe he modified something lol to make it work .
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
yea imma check it out now lol...also guys if u experience any probs be sure to update your Radio/wimax. dont update the pri....i hear that the new one will drain your battery so fast its not even funny you can check out calkulins thread for links
[EVO 4G Android Development] V1cmlb:
When u update do u have to do it to every rom u flash or once and ur coverd also u said no pri. Ok what about hboot and stuff
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
nah u only do it once and nah u never really touch hboot unless ur rooting and nand unlock...btw to flash those u must be nand unlocked...read his thread before flashing
[EVO 4G Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Power off the phone then power on by holding the power and vol down buttons. That will bring you to hboot. At the top of the screen look for s-on or s-off. If you have s-off then you're good security is off. If you have s-on then its not unlocked .
[EVO 4G Android Development] tizman:
quick topic change

Really nice work Bloody! My question is this: i used the MIUI rom and noticed that the caller ID works and sticks; compared to the other Htc roms. Is there a way to take the caller ID portion and load it on the the other metro roms? thx
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
nah i doubt the dialer in the sense based rom is different than the MIUI one
[EVO 4G Android Development] V1cmlb:
?? Is the virusrom different ? I can't get the zip scrip to work it did fine on myns but I like virus much more
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
depends if VirusRom has the init.d folder for scripts activated if it doesnt then that zip wont work. check it by using root explorer or w/e app u have to go into system/etc/init.d if theres nothing in there but 08metropcs then ill just make u one that will work with autostart app from market...thing is that app isnt the best in the world and sometimes stops working but it can work
[EVO 4G Android Development] V1cmlb:
I check and yeah there's other stuff there but I'm thinking maybe t Rom didn't load rite cuz stuff that was there before I reboted is not anymore and stuff that's on virus page about wats in the Rom is no ware to be found
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
did u wipe when u installed. u dont have to wipe with my rom because i make it auto wipe but others u have to
[EVO 4G Android Development] V1cmlb:
Yeah I did I gave up lol just went back to the good old metrodroid it doesent let me down

Hey, bloody would your cm rom mms.apk work with gingerbread?
[EVO 4G Android Development] chefchuck:
Blood, thanks so much for all your work on this. Quick question, do you suspect the scripts would work on an DInc rom? Either Myn's or IncROM? I'm taking an inc into metro today to have the MEID added to my wife's account, and was hoping your script might make life easy for me :). Thanks again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jackelmatador:
If his script does not work no fear. You can always use token419 .zip file and autoroot (start) in the marketplace (it is free), and everything works. In matter of fact everything works this way with every ROM I have tested. Well I have not always tested MMS.

Link to token419

My wife has an incredible, and I have an EVO both work with this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
this script is based on his except i made it not use autostart since that app sucks after a while...it just decides to stop working and i didnt want people to have that problem. also my script adds the fixed MMS.apk that makes mms work. Also nah man my script wont work on the incredible in fact all u need is the Eris metropcs script that Token419 makes. that one will work because ur MMS.apk doesnt need to be modified
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
i doubt it because Gingerbread is a lil different imma try it soon though imma about to go back to AOSP for a while so ill make the script for CM6.1.2 and CM7(Gingerbread)

Changing roms

How do you guys go back and forth through roms so easily, I hate changing roms because then i have to sit there and reinstall all my apps and I lose my call logs and stuff, the only stuff that save is the stuff thats synced with google (contacts, etc), Ive tried backup programs but after i restore apps the marketplace wont update them, What does everyone use or does all this stuff just have to be reinstalled everytime?
[EVO 4G Android Development] lebmb:
i used to care for call logs but no so much anymore, and with nandroid backup if u dont like the rom u just tried u can always go back to the previous state.

ive tried titanium backup, its not bad but more time consuming then reinstalling all the apps fresh. i just back up my txts and call it a day, redownloading the apps n setting up takes me less then 30 mins
[EVO 4G Android Development] jgme:
Yea its not that bad it just feels like there should be an easier way.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
ehh i switch roms everyday and my call log is usually my fam so ehh lol and if ur having probs with mms be sure that u have all the correct settings from my provision thread

any one else having this problem my texts are out of order..
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
yea that happens because of MetroPCS systems. idk why that happens but it does lol.

also im trying out the 1.7.11 MIUI and i gotta say its pretty great battery life has improved DRASTICALLY! i mean i have never gotten such good battery life on an AOSP based rom. But theyre going to release a new version soon anyways so ill w8 for that til then im prob going to work on the script for CM 6 and 7 and get it working with the stock MMS.apk instead of one that i found that works. Stay tunes =P
[EVO 4G Android Development] lebmb:
yeah so battery life is horrible on metrodroid 2

is anyone using any kernels other then what it came with? any difference
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
yea some1 told me it might have to do with showing the percentages in the taskbar battery icon...ill release a new one to fix it soon. But try out Netharcy's kernel 4.3.1 cfs havs its great
[EVO 4G Android Development] V1cmlb:
With sbc or with out
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
with sbc if u leave your phone idle you'll see that it stays at 100% for one hour instead of just 2 minutes lol...the only thing is their are risks to your battery supposedly but idk..i used it for a while and it seemed fine for me
[EVO 4G Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Sounds more that it is risky after long term use lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
well the risk usually comes to people who charge it from USB i got a wall charge and it works just fine that way though im on MIUI right now lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] lebmb:
thanks i just flashed it

however i did just notice something, 4g turns it self on all the time and is scanning all the time, i turn it off but it comes back on by it self, u guys should check n see if its doin the same thing

i bet that would consume alot of battery
[EVO 4G Android Development] DoubleOThrowed:
whenever i try to install the cm 6.1 rom it says the zip isnt signed correctly..any suggestions???
[EVO 4G Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Go to recovery then flash then click toogle signature (something like that) however its weird it shouldn't say that .Let's wait for bloody's explanation.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
yea thats cuz i didnt know about signing back then...now i sign my roms lol...those i basically just edited a few things after i extracted it and then put it back into the zip after lol...it worked just that since a few things were changed the signatures were different but ehh dont worry about it =P nothing important. just toggle verification and your good..plus it installs quicker that way
[EVO 4G Android Development] jackelmatador:
Hi Bloody,

Just curious did you ever figure out how to use techknowfile's prl hack, for metropcs of course? I saw you asked him a couple of times did anything come if it? The only thing I would worry about is according to Metro, calling in Verizon territory with this sort of hack might be considered the very expensive TravelTalk.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=696073&highlight=metropcs
[EVO 4G Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
That would be great @Bloody whats the best prl for metro pcs ?

i have 02004 should i leave it or update it to MetroPCS PRL 03014 Taken From Samsung Craft ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] iflip:
Will the rom in its current state work with the upcoming mpcs 4g lte or will you have to cook up an upgrade?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
MetroPCS is going to use LTE the evo uses WiMax which is only used by sprint lol. so basically were screwed in the 4G part. and about the PRL. any PRL that starts with 3xxxx is for Tri-Band phones. The evo is a dual band. And about the PRL hack. nah he never answered. looks like he abandoned the project. i hope Metro puts 3G everywhere soon cuz 1x not only sucks but drains battery faster because it takes longer to get things from the internet
[EVO 4G Android Development] V1cmlb:
Soo can we use verizon 4g phones with metro 4g??
[EVO 4G Android Development] lebmb:
nope

wimax is only sprint

and metro uses verizon towers/ technology so :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
u answered the wrong question there lol...yea we can use Verizon 4g phones on MetroPCS ...well i think....i dont think it would be to hard.. we'll see when it comes out...im still w8ing for 3G in miami lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] V1cmlb:
3g from metro? Well in another topic how is it going with zip scrips for cm7
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
.

right it lol..it sounds like something that will never come lol..and sorry ill work on those this week.
[EVO 4G Android Development] V1cmlb:
Well over here in california theres no 3g metro they went straight to 4g or 1x that's it thats why I wonder if I can use verizons 4g phones with metro since they both lte
[EVO 4G Android Development] jackelmatador:
So for those of you wondering about using a Verizon LTE phones on Metro...it will not work. Metro uses 1700 MHz for LTE, Verizon is using 700 MHz, I doubt they will make (or allow phone companies) multiple band Verizon phones.

[EVO 4G Android Development] lebmb:
really ? lol

woops

so ur in miami too?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
damn that sucks....oh well guess im stucking w8ing for 3G in miami....MetroPCS 4G will prob only go 1mbps anyways because of their Limited 4G ****. I forget what its called lol. Come On 3G i can care less about 4G! lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] jackelmatador:
It is because they only have 10 MHz of spectrum, for everything! That is why they killed their 3g plans they would have needed 2.5 MHz to support all the old school tech 2.5 MHz for 3g and then only 5 MHz left for LTE. This way they can use 7.5 MHz for LTE and get some better speeds like really good 3g.

LTE to really shine needs 20 MHz of space

If you really want a 4g Metro phone these might be the best near term solution

[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
nah u read their page wrong its 1.1.14 lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] Trident:
I read the first and last few pages of this thread... to sum it up- if I change from Sprint to MetroPCS, my EVO4Gs will work exactly as they do now, minus the 4G/WiMax connection, correct? [Assuming that I follow the directions on the other thread and flash this ROM.]
[EVO 4G Android Development] shagpal:
you could use the 4g/wimax if you get a separate clearwire account, but I would not know how to set that up on your evo. I think you could need to use metrodroid 1.2. the other bloody metro roms won't have 4g built into the rom so that you could use it as an option.

when I first flashed to metrodroid 1.2, my 4g defaulted over to sprint for 4g/wimax, but I didn't have an account w/ sprint.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
yea if u switch over yea u get reg MetroPCS =P also all my sense based roms have 4G support because theyre based on Sprint OTA's and idk about the clearwire account...would be nice lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] hexibot43:
I'm trying to install the CM6.1.1-MetroPCS edition and coming up with issues while installing it from the Recovery. I also tried to install it over Cyanogen 6.1.0 that I was trying out. That installed no issues. But same thing - kicked it back saying invalid. I've download twice from different locations and the zips check out ok. It just doesn't want to install.

I guess I should say I'm on a HTC Hero with damagecontrolMod right now. Perhaps I'm an idiot and this rom just won't work on the Hero.

I'm getting

Verifying Update Package

E:Wrong digest:system/etc/apns-conf.xml

E:Verification failed

I am wondering if this is because of the signature issue I have read about in the thread? I can't seem to figure out how to turn verification off. I was able to install "update - cm6.1.0 - signed" This isn't a Metro rom, but it worked for Voice and Sms. I was encouraged. Do I have to change my recovery image first to one that will allow verification to be turned off? Or is there a better way? I was really liking the CyanogenMod'd rom. It was like having a new phone.

Thanks,

Mab
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
yea thats because i didnt sign it... just toggle verification in Amon_Ras recovery and u wont get that
[EVO 4G Android Development] jackelmatador:
Ok here is something great I just discovered thanks to this thread, and xda in general. Someone mentioned getting Clearwire to work with the EVO to get 4G speeds. I decided to test this out and found out this WORKS. And not only does it work but if done right so far it is FREE!!!!!

So what do you need to do....

1) Make sure you have a sense ROM installed, I tested this with MetroDroid 2.0

2) Go to the dialer and hit ##DATA#

3) Go to edit mode

4) It will ask for you MSL code, this is different than the one used for metropcs data. Mine was 000000, if you need to figure it out download MSL reader from the app market (only works for EVO).

5) In edit mode Go to Wimax -> relm sprintpcs.com and change relm to Clearwire-wmx.net

6) The phone should auto reboot, if not reboot yourself

6) DO NOT TURN ON WIFI or 4G YET!!!!

7) Open up your browser and using your mobile data (2G, not wifi) make sure and get a connection to something like google.com (any page will work but google loads really fast)

8) Now start your 4G connection, it should search and then connect. You will now be able to use 4G for free and surf the net/teher/market place/anything!

So as far as I can figure this works because when you make a 2G connection it must set the DNS servers. With the 4G connection then established you have the IP address you need but the old DNS servers so there is no way for them to re-route you.

If you lose your 4G connection completely (which happens more often than I like) and then you try and connect again you will hit the redirect. Follow steps 6-8 and you should be good to go again. I tested this all day today in Orange County, CA and I could repeat the process over and over again. Some people have reported that paying the one time $10 fee works, I don't know if that is true, I did not test it. If it is true then this my not really be necessary.

It was great seeing 6Mbs down and paying $35/month!
[EVO 4G Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
u mean ##data# , plus the 4g didnt work for me it just ask me to choose a plan 10 a day or 45 a month .
[EVO 4G Android Development] jackelmatador:
Thanks I changed it to ##DATA#

I don't know why it is not working for you guys, I must have tried it 4 or 5 times, and twice after a reboot. Did you connect first with Mobile Data to google.com and Wifi off, then start the 4G connection?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jackelmatador:
I live like 2 miles outside 4G coverage but I will check tomorrow when I am in a coverage area, then I can test Monday-Friday since I work in a 4G area

I have an ispot account but it is not active...and I am not getting charged so I will keep everyone updated...might be all you need is an account, so those of that get the $10 pop up might be worth trying

hey XDA ive been a reader/lerker for quite sometime. i tried the CW(clearwire) 4g settings and it works!!! free 4g! got 1667kbps down 309kbps up thats with no bars of 4g

im using metrodroid v2.0.

but why is it when i try to open up the sprint hotspot settings it force closes? but when i activate sprint hotspot it works opens a wireless connection for devices to connect to but i cant connect to it because i cant change the settings (connection name and password)

.. and i did try to go in sprint hotspot settings before all the CW settings and didnt work b4 either just when i had EVO stock. or was the settings app stipped from the metrodroid v2.0 rom?

is there a apk that i can install or any way to push the settings app back in?

which area r u in ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
