HTC Hero PST settings!!(Data Settings for Cricket)to get WEB to work

[bigglou23]

Ok I'm Finally going to help everybody out with flashing this phone. This phone gave me so many problems and I figured that it gave other people problems. And Yes this Works for Sprint Hero!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So Lets Begin First you will need the following Items

1. Cdma-Workshop (Any Build) i will not post.....hint....Search
2. Qpst v2.7 build 323 (I have attached this)
3. Htc Hero DIAG Drivers (I Have Attached This)
4. Htc Sync (Its On The Link At The Bottom)
5. BetterCut or Anycut ( I have made a link for...Anycut)

Ok Now that we have the Files Lets Start Flashing

1. Press ##DIAG# (##3424) on your phone You will see a screen Pop Up Thats Normal
2. Now plug The phone up to the computer and it will try and find the drivers but it will fail or ask you to locate the drivers manually so make sure you remember where you unzipped the files
3. Once you have that setup Go to Cdma-Workshop Go To the port the phone is on and Read From the Phone and go to the Security Tab.....and On the Spc Section Read The lock Code and write it to back to the phone so it says unlocked Then make the code 000000 and rewrite the code so it says sucess.
4. Now Close Cdma-Workshop and Open QPST Configuration Click On The Ports Tab and Add New Port ( Make Sure Show Serial and Usb/QC Diag Ports Only is Unchecked) and Add The Port Of Your Hero.

7. Press ##DATA# (##3282#) And Setup your Data for your phone and press menu and Commit So your phone Will Reboot
8. Install BetterCut or AnyCut on your phone and open it Press New ShortCut And Go To Activity It make take a couple of minutes for it to appear but when it Does Go down to Proxy Setting and Click It. It Will Ask for a Name make it whatever you want to. It should say shortcut created sucessfully. Go to your Home Screen and it should be somewhere on there press it and Edit it For Cricket It should be HostNAME: wap.mycricket.com And Port Should be 8080 and for Metropcs HostName: wap.metropcs.net and Port Should Be 3128.

Also this works for the New Droid eris

except ##DATA# doesnt work on it, may not need that step

[ownmart]

use ##PST# and set up data for the Eris

So I took a longass time to freeakin get
web on stock browser app or other browser working thanks to bad PST settings and crickets dumass proxy use but finally got them right As I searched around forums I noticed a lot of people struggling with the same issue and decided I should HELP all of youu so if you are struggling with the PST settings here are the ones I used

If you are trying to get web working I suggest heading to the tutorial provided at - [Only registered and activated users can see links] post #8 and using this settings for the "setup your data" part

This will work for people who where:
-just trying to look for some PST goddies to get WEB
- getting the little crappy waiting for standby connection blah blah something like that when looking at the Mobile Network Status
-all the people who didnt know what to do with the "setup your data " part at the tutorial on how to do a full flash (heres the link if you want it and where dumb enough to not notice it a few lines up not being rude to anyone - [Only registered and activated users can see links] post #8)

allright now that im done talkin and bla bla blaing and bs lets get the party started:

Active Profile:1
[Only registered and activated users can see links]
Spi MN:HA: 12c
spi mn:AAA:2
Reverse Tunel:Enable
home IP:0.0.0.0
Primary Home:68.28.15.12
Second Home:68.28.31.12
HA Shared Secret:cricket
AAA shared cricket:cricket
DSA:I left this as it was all worked right


Slot Cycle Index:0 can leave as default but changing this to 0 will let you get messages and calls faster
MCC:310
MNC:00
ACCOLC:2
Vocoderisable
Home Orig:Voice 13k also can leave as default but voice 13k is way better than EVRC or anything else
Roam Orig:Voice 13k
LBS PDE IP: Blank
LBS PDE Port: BLANK
Home Sys Reg:enable
Foreign SID reg:enable
DDTM:disable
Home SID/NID#1:4139/65535

so after setting your PST settings click menu>commint modifications
let the phone restart,, after restart you should get the little 1x at the status bar of your screen if it doesnt appear check the status of Mobile Network if its off turn it on if its on and you should get the 1x on the status bar

also if like me your trying to get web to work download anycut or
better cut anycut is free to me both are the same. So open up any of the two and make a shortcut of proxysettings by going into activity (wait since its trying to get all activities) than look for proxy settings all the way at the bottom,, after that click on the shortcut that you made from anycut/bettercut and for hostname write: wap.mycricket.com and for Port write :8080

voilaaaaa!! ;D <<<did I write it right??? anywhoo if you used the PST settings and used anycut or bettercut your web should work right

!!!!!also on a last note if you do the anycut shortcut before getting the 1x at the status bar in other words getting mobile network connection your browser wont work so make sure you edit your proxy settings after getting any network connection

i know on the last parts of this tutorial i got offtopic anyways talkin about webif your anycute shortcuts wont work you could try using proxysurf and while in it go into settings and setting proxy there thought i will tell you proxysurf is sloWWW and doesnt have multitouch anyways just wanted to a little fyi

so If it works well your welcomee and its good to know I helped someone
if it didnt well just reply or PM me and I will try to help into getting web working !!!

[nicholass balls]

[thesmitty68521]

[thephoneguy913]

I have a Sprint HTC Hero and want to flash it to Metro PCS. I've done everything what is written in that post and it has not helped me. Moreover it got in a complete mess. Nothing is said about writing a prl file to the phone which is very important to get phone working. Nothing is said about EPST settings and how it should be tuned. It is also not mentioned that first of all you have to contact Cricket or Metro and have the Phone you are programming added to the Account. Also you have to ask Cricket or Metro for your MSID/MIN number (usually not your Phone Number) you will be needing the MSID/MIN if you dont know it, or if the phone was never on Cricket or Metro before. If somebody has a full and step-by-step instructions how to make it work you are welcome to post it here.

Hi. And welcome to CDMA Gurus. I am sorry to hear you are having such a hard time getting this to work for you.

First of all, it is assumed that someone knows how to write a PRL to a phone. Secondly, it is also assumed you know that the phone is going to have to be activated for you to actually get the MDN to input in the settings. Finally, tell us what error you are getting when attempting to connect to the internet with this. The write up done here is actually pretty good and has been tested.

I would like to reference you back to my PM discussion on PPC geeks, I had mention that you must have your ESN in the metro system in PM's 1,2,3,4 and 5. Also as I volunteered in my PM when you get the ESN in the Metro system I will help you with the rest.

[HeadBussa]

I'm glad you are eager to help guys. Since that what's the best way to have my ESN in their system? How about the idea of calling their customer service and asking them to switch my account to another not HTC phone (for ex. Motorola). In this case do I have to go to their office with my supposed "Motorola" or can they put ESN in their system through the phone call?Cause if I'll bring them my HTC they refuse to flash it by one reason or another.. Just don't want to botch up the whole situation. :-\

You will need to contact a dealer and see what the options are to get the ESN put into the system. I know that Metro flash is how it's mainly done but there might be other ways.

Got my phone flashed to metro pcs today. They told me that the only options that will be available are text, calls, and voicemail. Yes I can call and receive calls and same with text messages, but when somebody leaves a voicemail, the phone doesn't show any voicemails received, only missed calls. When I push the voicemail shortcut, a window and nothing is there(it seems like it's sprints voicemail program which is tuned for sprint service). The only way I can know somebody has left me a voicemail and to listen to it is to dial my voicemail number directly. Internet and any other options (GPS, Google,....) are not working..as expected. Would appreciate your solutions to get voicemail, internet and everything else working!

[HeadBussa]

Does anyone have an instruction how to make web working on METRO PCS? I mean all the EPST settings. And how to set it? with QPST settings program or with ##DATA# ?

[HeadBussa]

Helloo.....

As for the voice mail notification I would start by checking all the notification setting.
