I have successfully using unlock tool and imate new ROM.
I have not installed ANY EXTERNAL ROM and configured GPRS AND MMS.
Where can I find any cabs of external ROMS to add to this setup that would add PUSH MAIL and BLUETOOTH advances? Also--how would I install it without a tool? Also--how do I install it--step wise?
I did npt save my CINGULAR EXTERNAL ROM before I upgraded
Any other suggestions? Thanks

Check to see if these contain the Cingular Extended roms:

I'm aware this is better suited in the android development section, however I can't post there yet.
So I'm in an area where I can only get data with data roaming turned on. Liberty lacks the option to turn it on, and that was a killer for me. So I figured out how to turn it on!
First, you'll need a program called notepad++. Google it, its free.
You'll now need liberty rom. You should know where to get it.
Once its downloaded, open the rom. I used winrar, no need to extract the zip with it. Open the system folder and you'll find the build.prop. Open it with your newly installed notepad++. Once open, add. "ro.com.android.dataroaming=true" to the build prop. I added it to the bottom but I believe it doesn't matter where you add it. Click save and your done! Just flash it like normal and enjoy that sweet, sweet data.
I tried this and I still get the "Data Connectivity Lost - Data Roaming is turned off" notification.
Any thoughts?
Did you use NotePad++? And did you wipe data? Tell me the exact process you used.

Wiping data made the difference!
I figured coming from the same ROM I wouldn't have to worry about that, but apparently you do. I guess I'm still a bit confused on how exactly the build.prop file is used by the OS.
Thanks for the help!!!
i know people have said they couldnt edit build.prop in liberty, but i was able to edit it with root explorer, save it, reboot and it took effect. i didnt make the changes youre describing but i changed the build name
I tried editing build.prop and rebooting without success.
I copied build.prop to my SD card.
Edited the file with Notepad++ (obviously from my computer)
renamed build.prop in the System folder to build.prop.bak
copied build.prop from my SD card to the System directory
reset build.prop permissions
rebooted
The data roaming setting never took affect when I tried this. I have no idea what I did wrong.

I was running monster rom, I downloaded liberty and changed the build.prop as described and worked like a charm. Possibly, since you tried changing the build.prop without wiping data and dataroaming was already disabled, it saved it like that. Much like when you enable usb debugging. If you flash a rom with it enabled without wiping, it stays enabled...
Hmmmm... you'd think changing the build prop would automatically change any stored settings. I'll look into this

Exactly! I still think I must have been doing something wrong... probably messed up one of the mundane details. I always do that
I'll try recreating the steps you went through when I've a bit more time and a fully charged phone. Maybe I can learn something else useful
is this for the CDMA radio? i need to verify GSM with Liberty 2.0
I'm not sure, there's no gsm service around here (hardly cdma). You can try and see if it works.

You have to get the correct APN (Access Point Name) for your provider to make data/MMS to work, you should not require the XT883 firmware. Just try google with your SIM provider followed by APN settings.. such as "Orange UK APN Settings" or check their website, or give them a call for the correct APN settings. Some SIMs have the APNs locked into the SIM, some of them do not include APNs (You might check a phone from the SIM provider for the APN).
When you find the correct settings, go to Settings > Wireless & Network settings > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names
Create a new APN and enter the info you found. Also check Battery & Data Manager > Data delivery to ensure data is enabled.

I personally use MavRom (Maverick Rom) version 4.0, as version 4.5 has a battery drain issue with the overclock script. It's based on 906 with modifications and tweaks.

so i was going through this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406812 for flashing xt883 radio on my phone as the reception is very bad i had a few doubts
1) do you connect your phone to the pc while doing this
2) do you download root explorer on your phone from the app store and are there any free ones
3) and how do you go about doing this ( Use root explorer to push the build.prop into the system folder )
i am very sorry for being such a noob, its my first android phone

On Stock and Blur based roms, there's a little line in the build.prop that Verizon snuck in.. that makes any GSM network appear to have bad reception (only 1~2 bars) but if you check under status, the reception is actually good. You can fix that by editing this line in build.prop;
ro.mot.phonemode.vzwglobalphone=1
Change the 1 to 0 and save, then reboot, this should fix the 'reception issue'
A free root browser would be JRummy's Root browser lite, or ES File Explorer (you can enable root browsing in settings).
Build.prop is in /system
IF YOU INSIST ON FLASHING XT883 (Only required for using AT&T/T-Mobile/Other USA GSM networks)
Open a root browser; copy the build.prop you have to the SDCard or somewhere safe. Copy the build.prop (after you edit the line I mentioned before on the PC, you can use notepad). After you put it in /system MAKE SURE YOU FIX THE PERMISSIONS. Most root browsers just long-press build.prop, then tap permissions (ES is Properties > permissions) Check only Read (on all three, user, other, etc) and Write on Owner ONLY.
Then use the fastboot instructions to flash the XT883 radio. THIS WILL BREAK VERIZON CDMA.
Hi,
as the header says i can't find my SIM tool kit on my Xperia V after installing a custom ROM from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2500671 to be noted that this ROm doesnt have Stk app which helps me to get multimedia settings via SIM option. At the same time i cant see any text when im trying to browse SIM shortcuts as for example *121*1*7#....I tried to fix the SIM tool kit unavailability by following another topic but everytime i put the Stk.apk in system folder change permission and reboot the system i still can't see the tool kit. Any support is welcome and sorry if you find it noobish post.
hi i am trying to use this method to see if I unlock the sim but I still frizzy and tells me that the application be stopped

Sim Unlock Sprint HTC One Max for Free

Want to sim unlock your Sprint HTC One Max for free, we have a step by step solution for you.
Please note neither we are not responsible for any bricked devices, you are doing this at your own risk.
Follow the steps below, please note you need to be rooted:-
Download and install a root explorer app from the Play Store (ES File Xplorer or X-Plore)
Download and install Sprint HTCOne SIMUnlock Helper
Download (do not install) HTCOMADM_SPCS.apk
Using root explorer app downloaded in Step 1 navigate to /system/app and rename the existing HTCOMADM_SPCS.apk to say HTCOMADM_SPCS.apk1
Now copy and paste the file downloaded in Step 3 to /system/app and set permission to rw-r-r
Reboot
Open SIMUnlock Helper app downloaded in Step 2. You might get message like “Device Check Fail” or “This Device is not a Sprint HTC One! Therefor, this Program will not run”. Ignore this message.
Click the 3 Menu Dots on the Upper Right hand side and Select “Display SIM Unlock Log”. Grant any permissions the app asks for.
After that it will say “SIM Unlock Log”. Now hit the back button and now it should say Device Verified, Root Available etc. etc.
Tap Start and you should be in OMADM Test Client. Scroll all the way down to the end and tap the selection SIMLOCK. The phone will freeze a couple of seconds and then return to normal.
Once done tap the back button and the SIM Unlock Helper should show SIM Unlock Results. If it says Successful, reboot the phone.
Once Rebooted, Insert your GSM SIM Card and go to your Settings> Mobile Data> Network Mode. Once you tap that, Tap GSM/UTMS Only. If successful your phone will switch from Sprint to the GSM carrier. All there is next is to setup your APN settings to be able to receive the carriers data services.
any suggestions
