I have found a workaround for AT&T Tilt users with no HSDPA button ...details inside
After a lot of digging I have discovered that the Tilt DOES have the HSDPA switch app. Here are the steps to accessing it:
1. Open File Explorer
2. Navigate to the Windows Folder
3. Press Menu--> Show All Files
4. Now scroll down the whole list of files and once you get to files beginning with the letter H there is a file called HSDPASwitch, open it.
5. Change your setting however you want it.
Enjoy
I just copied my other post to make it easier to find over here. Hopefully you will all find it useful and enjoy the information.
For those who might not understand how to do it, just wanted to post this guide here too.
What you need:
1) HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml file. I have attached one below which you can use, or alternatively you can copy the one from the your /windows folder.
2) If you don't have the version which is already patched then you will need the N2A patched file attached below as well.
Here are the steps:
1) Open HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml using Notepad.
2) You will see many cities listed like this:
<city name="Anchorage, US" loca="NAM|US|AK|ANCHORAGE " land="United States " /> (original)
<city name="Ketchikan, AK" loca="NAM|US|AK|KETCHIKAN" land="United States" /> (copied and edited)
Simply copy one of the cities from your country, or state and then edit the city information. You will notice in the example above i have changed "Anchorage, US" to "Ketchikan, AK" as this is just what will display on the screen. The section marked loca=con"CONTINENT|COUNTRY|STATE|CITY" must be typed in correctly or else you will not get any data.
3) Repeate step 2 for as many cities as you would like to add.
4) Disable touchflo on the today screen
5) Copy Manila2D.exe (if you are not using the version already patched), and your newly edited HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml file to the /windows folder.
6) Enable touchflo on the today screen again.
7) Go to weather and add new city, the new cities should be available to you. I would remove any old cities you had before as well.
Weather won't download via edge or 3g:
For those of you still having problems with the weather plug-in here is another thing I did to fix it:
1. Go to Settings - Connections - Connections - Advanced - Select Networks - Edit (MEdia Net) - Proxy Settings -> UNCHECK BOTH OPTIONS
2. Soft Reset
It should work fine

As a side note, I was able to just use the Zip code instead of NAM|US|AK|KETCHIKAN.

Scotchua, nice tutorial. I've been using several of your fixes since I discovered them. However, the one note missing from your Manila2D Weather Custom Cities tutoria is how to determine the loca="NAM|US|AK|KETCHIKAN".
I have the solution! For most US locations, you can use the 5-digit ZIP code, but to determine ANY location, including outside the US, use this link to AccuWeather's RSS.
Simply put in your location as instructed in the 'Choose a location' field and click 'Set'. (For this example, I used Whistler, Canada.) The page then generates a URL for you, which looks like accuweather.com/rss/liveweather_rss.asp?metric=0&locCode=NAM|CA|BC|WHISTLER. The piece after locCode= (which I've hilited in Red) is what goes in the loca="" field in the XML file.
Then complete your tutorial, and choose the custom cities! Hope this helps someone else looking to make a quick fix.

Hi all,
Here is what I did to fix my the darn weather problem using my AT&T Tilt through MediaNet.
1. Make a copy of the HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml in the Windows folder.
2. Modify the file to include your info. (for me the zip code worked). See the examples below:
Code:
<city name="Idaho Falls, ID" loca="83406" land="United States"/>
<city name="Idaho Falls, ID, US" loca="NAM|US|ID|IDAHO-FALLS" land="United States"/>
3. Copy the HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml back to your device (your storage card or My Documents)
4. Disable TouchFlo in your Today Screen settings
5. Using TotalCommander overwrite the HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml file in the Windows folder
6. Go to Settings, Connections tab, Connections program and select the "Manage existing connections" option.
7. Click the Proxy Settings tab and uncheck the "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet" option.
8. Click the OK at the top left.
9. Once again, select the "Manage existing connections" option.
10. Click the "Edit..." button for your MediaNet or ISP connection
11. Click Next, Next
12. Click the "Advanced..." button
13. Click the Servers tab at the bottom
14. Click "Use specific server address" and enter the two following addresses for DNS and Alt DNS:
208.067.222.222
208.067.220.220
15. Click OK at the top, then Finish at the bottom, click OK again at the top, then OK again.
16. Reenable TouchFlo in your Today options
17. Go to the Weather Tab and Add your city
18. Enjoy
I have tested the solution on are Garmin's ROMs, but it should solve proxy server issues and DNS issues relating to AT&T's seriously out of date default DNS servers (the proxy server uses an up to date DNS server).
The above DNS servers are from OpenDNS www.opendns.com
Please post and/or PM me if this solution works for you. I've been frustrated at the lack of working weather for my area, so this is the crazy solution I came up with!

Any Suggestions
Hi, I've done everything. However when I try to copy the new file I created with the HH_0409 exe there's problems.
1) when i go into windows on my device and go the the HH_file it will not let me copy it or deleate it, so i could then put in the new file.
2) when I try to copy and paste my new file titled the same HH_0409_WeatherCities to the Windows in device I get a error message that reads (error copy file, cannot copy HH_4090_WeatherCities access is denied. Be certain that there is enough free storage memory that the destination is not write-protected and that the file is not currently in use.)
I have unchecked TouchFlo as stated and done everything as listed. I'd somehow had this working when using MD2 but now that I'm using the Solace 1.5 rom, I'll be darn that I can get this to work. I'm trying to put Millsboro, DE USA into the darn thing. If you have any suggestions I'd be greatly appreciative.
Thank you in advance.

I use total commander (which i have added as an attachement to the first post) to copy the files. If you have tf2d, and done a soft reset, but still cannot copy the files using total commander then i really don't know why your files cannot be overwritten. I've honestly never had that problem before, so i just don't have anyway to help you.
I also got that same error when I was using file explorer but I did get it to work when I used Total Commander.
I downloaded the file to my desktop.
Then opened it with notepad.
Added my city
I then choose to save as and selected the file on my desktop to be overwritten.
I copied it to my storage card.
I then copied it using total commander to the windows directory with TF2d disabled.
soft reset
enabled TF2d and it was there.
Can you give example of with zip code. I tried it using the info off the rss feed hyperlink and still nothing. Thanks.

First Post Updated
NOt working for me
Scotchua, thanks for taking the time to put this together. I have edited my HH_0409... file and put the cities in. Now I am able to select the custom cities as new locations but I get the "unable to download..." message for those cities whil the original cities will download weather just fine.
Any ideas?
thanks.
good stuff

you need to either copy the patched manila2d.exe file over to /windows or change the DNS server addresses. I tried both methods and they work. They're both in the instructions.
Thanks!

Hey I appreciate the help...I am up and running now. I had saved the Manila2D.exe file to my storage card--I thought I just had to run it like a .cab but obviously (I overlooked it before) you have to save it to /windows. (I didn't have to mess with the DNS settings and I was able to simply enter using the zip code method.)
Guys like you are an asset to the forum...

can you do a step by step using total comander, I stil get a message that the files can not be replaced
I have the same problem. I am using a touch cruise with chavon bravo's rom. Cant move the manila file to windows.
NOTE: OPEN THE XML WITH NOTEPAD, NOT WORDPAD.
Word pad will translate foreign characters and will corrupt the XML file.
I did the step by step instructions, copied both files to the windows folder, and then restarted touchflo. Wheni go to Select location, its completely blank. Any ideas on this one?
still nothing
i'm using hyperdragon IV IOLITE, with touchflo but same trouble, when i've update the XML the new location appears, but when i sync nothing comes, but if i overwrite the patched Manila2d.exe now doesn't come up the manilla.
i don't need the Connection setting, cuz i'm a Mexican user, i've my own settings.
any idea, anybody know if the Hyperdragon IV IOLITE has already the manilla patched version?
this is the change in the XML NAM|MX|MX019|MONTERREY, the original MONTERREY has MX005 and comes with other weather forecast not from my city
i've tried two ways, overtwritin' the original Monterrey item, and adding another as MonterreyNL, and as i told you, in both ways the new setting pops now but can't get weather and in the other locations JUST FINE!!
Custom M2D Weather
hi guys, maybe I have the definitive solution to setting new cities on M2D weather. (or at least on my Kaiser go on)
1) in M2D weather set one city whatever you want is indifferent.
2) disable touchflo in today setup
3) open REGISTRY EDITOR and go on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
then open software, then open HTC, then open Manila2D, then open Weather here you have two choice "0" and "setting" in both of them there are two item: "Location" and "Location Code". (you have to modify the item in "0" and in "setting")
So, when you tap in Location, you have to insert a string like this:
Caprese Michelangelo, It (first city name and after the nation)
When you tap in location code, you have to insert a string like this:
eur|it|it016|Caprese Michelangelo
If you want repeat for other city. At the end enable touchflo on the today screen again and upgrade the weather.
Work fine for me on my Tytn II.
original manila
where can i get the original manila2d? cuz i dont like the patched one
pincopinco,
You the man!! Just tried it on my TyTNII and worked first time! Outstanding!

I seem to have deleted a DWORD in HKLM/SOFTWARE/HTC/MANILA 2D/WEATHER/SETTINGS because the keyboard was in the way and I rewrote a DWORD by mistake. Could anyone please list all DWORDS under HKLM/SOFTWARE/HTC/MANILA 2D/WEATHER/SETTINGS?
FINALLY a simple fix-Thanks!

Man, thank you, thank you, thank you! This is the first fix that worked easily without messing up something else. City data now updating like a charm on my Vogue. Thanks again for sharing.
I like to whipe periodically for that fresh g1 feel and smoothness, only reason I hate doing it is that I have to manually punch in my WEP code for the wifi over and over again. It's an annoyance I would love to get rid of. I've tried a few backup apps, none do it though. Anyone know of a specific app that does, or a way I can do it through term/adb? Any way?
I'm sure there is a way to pull the wifi settings data from the system somehow but I've actually found a gscript which I edited a little that goes through and calls the settings screen, turns on wifi, clicks on the topmost network available (assuming youre near the one you want to connect) and enters the WEP key as defined in the gscript code.
You may be able to find it in the 'useful gscipt' thread that was around on xda but if not, I can post mine (edited of course) as soon as my g1 gets done flashing the latest CM rom. :]
EDIT: Here you go put this in gscript or make an empty txt document, paste the following, edit the bold type to reflect your WEP key, save as setupwifi.sh file and run through terminal "sh setupwifi.sh"
***Requires root / 'su' *** either way you run it.

Just make sure your wifi is turned off for the purpose of this script, since first thing it does is go to settings, clicks wireles, turns on wifi. If you had the wifi on and ran this script, it'll turn off and script will sort of go haywire. No damage but just it wont do what its inteded to do.
It's actually fun to watch your phone do things on it's own and press keys and all that. If you want more details on what each of the keyevent's do, just find the GScript thread and its all in there.
Hello! Sorry for bringing this thread back up. But, before anyone gets angry at me, I'm sorry in advance... I did use the search (trust me, I'm in love with it) and didn't have any luck finding anything other than this.
Anyways, just had a small question: let's say I don't know the wep key because my admin at work put it in for me (they wont share it) but I don't want to ask him every time I flash a rom for it again and again. So I was wondering if the script below would make my device pull the inputted wep key from the device and memorize it after every flash or does it only work if the wep key is inserted?
Is there maybe an app that can just backup data (including wifi wep keys)? or another script that shows you the currently inputted wep key on my device that my admin types in it?
When I had my blackberry the desktop manager backup system would save the wifi wepkeys, don't know why Google wont synchronize settings, data, apps, and wep keys but I guess to each it's own.
I have a T-mobile USA G1
Thank you.

Wifi settings are located here:
Code:
/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
Copy the .conf file to a safe place before you wipe and install a new ROM and then push it back using ADB or place it on your sdcard and push it back using terminal.
With this method, there is no way to see what the key is, but then again, you don't have to because once you push the file back, all your data is remembered.

Just open wpa_supplicant.conf with notepad on PC and whoops your wep key is there.
Write it on paper and make tatoo of it on your leg
Edit:
Solution(s) witouth PC
Or open it with TxTPad Lite (free on market) directly on phone and read it
Upload wpa_supplicant.conf to dropbox with droidbox free

No problem, one things I would like to ad, I found a guide, that is for the Sprint EVo to pagePlus which EVERY step is the same, the guide isn't mine, but I'm going to upload it to my personal server
guide: http://www.bpcr.biz/buddy/Android.zip
the zip contains, 2 PRL's, the guide, the APN needed for MMS and APN backup and Restore.
Now, load the first PRL, pageplus.prl when first provisioning, after you are done doing all changes, (including APN Backup & restore) and reboot phone and verify that data works, load the second prl, pageplus1.prl , reason being, that first prl is a non-evdo prl so that it forces phone to go 1x only, which resets HA and autentication keys.
The second PRL is an EVDO prl, only issue I've noticed is sometimes EVDO is spotty.. however we are limited with Data an PagePlus, so WiFi is best, but at least now you can get on web if needed and recieve picture messages.

Disclaimer: I'm not responsible for what you do to your phone while preforming these steps, the info here is not made by me but is a mix of previous experience and a few other guides on the internet.
as of today (9/28/2010) DATA and SMS (Picture messages) DO NOT Work, I'm still trying to figure that part out.. However Calls and Text and all the other functions of the phone do work!
1st) thing you have to have is root for your phone, if you have that then great! Also you need to be running a NON-Froyo Rom (the froyo roms, I've tested thus far) are lacking EPST which will be used later to program the phone.
2nd) Search the Market (Via WiFi) and download MSL reader
3) Write down that MSL (will need it later)
4) reboot phone
5) download http://www.bpcr.biz/buddy/Android.zip and put on root of SD card
6) on your phone pull up the dialer (hit the green button) and put in ##775# (##PRL#) and put in your MSL code you got earlier
7) select "update PRL", drop down "Folder" to "SD Card" and push down on your navigation ball and then long press the "menu" key to make your keyboard lower and select pageplus.prl then select "ok", then press your "menu" key and hit commit modification
8) phone will reboot (Congratulations your now on verizon towers!
9) Get PagePlus to activate phone (eg, contact a local dealer) , tell them you are manually programming a Sprint phone and give them the IMEI and that you need your MIN/MDN and SID.
**Update**
Easier method!
10) on your phone, pull up the dialer and dial ##YOUR6DIGITALMSL# , then select edit mode
11) change Mobile Directory Number (MDN) to what is given to you by PP/dealer
12) change MSID to your MIN (Mobile Identification Number) as suplied by PP/Dealer
12) press menu
13) commit changes
**** older method***
10) Now that you have that information, dial ##3424# on your phone
11) Click "edit mode"
12) Enter the MSL from earlier
13) Select Data Profile, then change the username to [email protected]
14) press your physical menu button and select commit changes
15) re-do steps 10 and 11 but this time, select Advanced instead of data profile
16) now select MSID and change it to your MDN
17) now select Home SID/NID, input SID supplied by PagePlus Dealer and NID is ALWAYS 65335
18) press your menu button again and commit changes
19) ENJOY your pre-paid HTC Hero!
************* UPDATE*******************
I now have working data with PagePlus, now to solve MMS problem!
Will update shortly with tutorial on howto get data & MMS

Thanx for this man!
Here is a link to the latest Verizon 52031 PRL file I managed to find for Sprint phones working on Pageplus with annoying Roaming Indicator turned off.
http://goo.gl/7L1XF
If you anyone else manage to find any later version than this PRL please share it with us like I did
what does step 6 mean??
does this work for the evo shift as well?
does this work for the evo shift as well
yes it works for the shift as well.
well, after days of messing with it, when I couldn't get anyone to help me, I finally got true 3g on my sprint evo 3d to pageplus without a donor phone. (I know this thread is about the 4g, but maybe there are other poor btards like me looking for help)
Problem is, I'm not sure what did it, so take this with a pinch of salt. I THINK what did it was putting a 1x only prl in, then letting it get connection, then putting the 3G prl in, letting it work stuff out, then putting the 00002.prl (Pageplus) in. Don't ask exactly what the problem was or how to fix it, I don't know. Just trial and error along with a few crisp apple ciders.....
Here's what I did....(prl's attached)
MDN and 00002.prl
OTA
the usual [email protected] stuff
I used qpst and dfs
clear nam/baner name
load 51600_1x prl, rebooting,
setting to CDMA only mode (epst),
rebooting, loading 51618 prl, reboot.
Ended up with mode CDMA_HDR in DFs. Then set to Automatic, loaded 00002.prl.
Not sure what else it took, but that did something. Also set DMU MN auteth to 11.11.11 from 0.0.0 (not sure that did anything though)
This got a PPP password and that's all it seemed to need. AAA HA passwords are still blank, but it is EVDO, not 1x, and tests at the same speeds as my other phone on 3g.
Nice.
Android 10 they moved apn xml to /system/product/etc make copy of xml make the changes user_visible="true" and user_editable="true" and its fixed in Android 10 Android 9 first you make 2 copys of your apn in system etc one for you to edit, one for when you mess something up it happens. in the xml you find your carrier and the dun apn add the line user_visable="true" it works this way you need to be able to see apn but not be able to write to it be careful after you edit copy it to back to system/etc change permission 0644 and reboot. the xml is UPDATED for Android 10 place in /system/product/etc/apns-conf.xml I did in twrp i put Android 10 in mega so it could be downloaded NEWos 10.0.2 NEW product/ect download link
New https://mega.nz/#!ShFlTQwT!iNY2aIlcdr9wvQuHhmahH17dAprTZzoFtvmv9WZCKC0 for system/ect https://mega.nz/#!T8EHTYqY!TPNslQzQ-ZvZx5rqXIUXryHM89fwUCNjoF5c39AJmZM the ect controls mtu i have them matching for 310260
Won't this get you kicked off your carrier for excessive use?
never it just allows dun very easy I decompiled the framework.apk changed mtu dont prefer apn also but no they allow unlimited on TMobile but they only see it as data it unblocks apn after change you reboot and it's there just keep read only you only delete line user_visable"false" I used my manager to do so and changed permission to 0644 and root ownership and copied over in twrp I tested with file manager it just unlocks it if you change user_editable to true on main apn you can open speed
Tried to follow this, having a heck of a time.
I went into system etc apn xml, found my carrier apn named T-Mobile LTE
But it didn't match the apn in settings under access point names. Also you said to also find the dun, there was no dun for TMobile LTE any where. I seen dun entries for other TMobile apns, but not the one named TMobile LTE. There were manyother TMobile entries, like TMobile US 160, 260, 270 and a bunch of other numbers. Under my settings/access points, the apn selected is named TMobile LTE with no number after, so I figure that's what I need to look for in the xml, so I find it, but again, the info under it doesnt match the MCC and MCN numbers don't match and the Apn type doesn't either. For example , in my settings/access points, the last apn type is xcap, but in the xml xcap isnt there, there's just default, supl. Mentioned it because Im guessing they need to match? But they don't.
Also, when I do find the right one in the apn xml what exactly am I supposed to do?
Delete user_viable=false Ok I understand that, but where exactly is that supposed to be? Under my carrier? If so, I'm using solid file explorer, so I searched the words user_viable= false and thru out the entire XML file there are only 4 instances of user_viable= false and they are all under Verizon apns. So I'm not sure what's up with this, because it's definitely not under the TMobile apns.
And then you said NOT to delete read_only=true? Ok I understand that , but again, is that supposed to be under my carrier right?
So basically, when I find the correct apn in the xml, user_ viable = false should listed, and I'm supposed to delete that, then save and change permissions to 0644 and reboot? Then after reboot go into settings/access points and reset apn.
Is that right? If it is, good
Now I have to figure out how to find the right apn in the apnxml file.
Sorry for all this trouble.
kinda but make a copy of apn xml to internal or sd can't modify while system is using it use mt manager app I have English version if needed it lets you jump to line you need and backs it up but after you copied XML you can modify it I've put xml back in system with twrp fixed permission 0644 rebooted and fixed permission my file explorer check ownership make sure it's root you then can reset apn in settings and what you set works, on pcweb user_editable false I think works best (like mms you can see but not edit system will use if it's there) if you need my manager English I'll send if you tell me apn and oos version I'll make you one if you're having issue I always like to help when I can
that's how I moved and ownership with my manager and I use project fi apn because I decompiled my framework config_respects hold carrier config to false and config dont prefer son to true you can use gravity box to do that that's not needed I've changed a lot mtu 1500 I helped build a few ROMs so not a noob lol
I appreciate your time and you trying to help.
I'm still lost though. Sorry
I'm on the OnePlus 7 pro, On Tmoble
Ok I'll make a copy of the apn xml and place it on sd card, so then I'm able to edit it. But what exactly am I looking for?
I'm on TMobile, the name of my apn applied under Settings-WiFi & Internet-Mobile Data- Access Point Names is TMobile LTE, so when I open the xml find in a root explorer, am I looking for the entry named TMobile LTE, right? Once I find that, you said to delete the line user_viable=false, but there is no such line, and there also isn't a DUN entry.
Please try to direct me step by step if possible, considering my exact situation stated above.
Thank you very much ecompton
Here are screenshots of the xml entry that I think is the correct one, and the 2nd screenshots are of my apn in settings.
Do you see anything here that is correct or incorrect?
You see how there is no user_viable=false or no dun entry.
You see the apn entry in the xml file doesn't match the apn in settings? Should they match? Or no?
If you don't want to root, there's another way.
Go to your APN settings and set "MVNO type" to "GID" and "MVNO value" to "FF", save and go back, other operator specific APNs will be gone.
You won't be able to create (or add) DUN configurations but that would also cause the "default" APN to be used instead of your operator's DUN configuratoin.
Enjoy!

Thanks for the reply.
To Bo clear, I'm already rooted.
But I still tried what you said, after I hit save, and go back like you said, nothing changed, the same apn with all the same settings that was applied b4 is selected.
Is that is what's supposed to happen?
Thank you

What theme u using?
if you add gid it wrong after you do turn on airplane mode that's wrong seen and talked to guy who made post check apn settings trust me I did this you can use other apps offline sim database app with airplane mode copy it with dun in place and it works because framework.res.apk has privileged on writing those to write it in but you have to make it system app. just add user_visible="true" to apn reboot then reset apn in apn setting I'll show you with your apn can't test because I'm 310260 (imsi 310260x97) those numbers need to match xml I'll put the tether one to add too I know this is way to make it work see my apn in pic I know this stuff other pics are your apn
here's line with your sim
<apn carrier="T-Mobile Tethering"
mcc="232"
mnc="03"
apn="pcweb.tmobile.com"
user=""
password=""
authtype="0"
server=""
proxy=""
port=""
mmsc=""
mmsproxy=""
mmsport=""
type="dun"
read_only="true"
roaming_protocol="IP"
protocol="IPV4V6"
/>
match it 2 spaces paste at start and after /> next apn on next line it will match

Yes, just some providers (i.e. Vodafone) would be having another APN, with type=dun, that would be used while tethering in order to apply a different billing.
After the change only the "main" APN would be kept (at least that's whayt I've seen).
The internet3 is VPN apn I'm just testing long as you have that backup you're good it's very easy I just make it hard lol I'm using Windstream ones too dsl stuff lol the *#*#4636#*#* lte td-scdma/umts makes network ca lte and 3g only then on apn change bearer in apn settings from unspecified (uncheck) and check all other ones is wrote in buildprop to speed net to
if you can't get fun just make a folder with the same name as apk I'm uploading apn sim database editor for you just have airplane mode on find you apn edit it to have done when you go to blank apn setting just click th plus sign top right and give it 30 sec reboot and you have it and here's my manager don't edit system edit your copy then copy it to system change permission to 0644 and ownership to root next post has both apps from mega
offline sim https://mega.nz/#!SAFVwIpD!ivTNKzQr0GiFbcC9pihQLQc4Q31TfWX2357UUVg97rY here's my manager so it's easy https://mega.nz/#!7VUlwSRb!gjzGslW63ql-heB1TSRJCDTC1Mln00jkV-mB6G0_opE
Thank you so much for trying to help me, appreciate it alot.
However, I'm having heck of a time following you, and I'm honestly pretty tech savvy.
I mean no disrespect at all. Please know that. It's just hard for me to understand you.
I did do your manager, thank you for that. Because with solid explorer, I wasn't able to edit the apn xml file, and with your manager, I was able to. So thank you.
Ok, let me ask you this. You mentioned you are 310 260, and you directed to 232 03 in the xml file. But I'm also 310 260. So shouldn't I be looking for the 310 260 in the xml file?
Edit: I think I follow with how to edit the xml, you want me to add the 'tmobile tethering' entry to xml, with the exact lines underneath shown in the pic, save then copy to system- etc and set the permissions. I did this ( I think I did it right) and nothing happened. Could it be because I'm 310 260 and not 232 03?
See ?
your post #8 that was mmc you had highlighted lol so I thought I'd help yes do your carrier mcc mnc I can just put mine on here you just copy it to /system/etc change permission 0644 and below the permission change owner it will be sd_card because that's where it came from I can just give you mine if your plmn is 310260 T-Mobile I'll have it in 10 min here
