Curious as I am, I found myself digging around in the *#*#4636#*#* settings. If you press Phone information and then press the hamburger menu, the first line of that would read "Select radio band".
I did press "USA Band", and nothing seems to have changed, but if I wanted to restore that setting to whatever it was before I pressed "USA Band", where exactly is that setting stored? In the modem partition?
Likely the hardware doesn't support the other options. Meaning this is more of a core setting to inform the device what it uses. Not to actually change capabilities. However if you find a way to change the capabilities, some international individuals would love you. As where its stored, no idea. What you could do is. Make a band backup. Then change it and make another nandbackup. Then compare the two backups via hex comparison.

I actually tried changing the preferred network type in the same "hidden" menu, and that setting didn't stick through a reboot, so I don't think that the radio band setting sticks either.
I will definitely try what you said though, as soon as official factory images are available.

I have following problem:
Normally i should use wap.vodafone.de-connection to access internet-that's the only one listed in Start-Settings-Connection-Connections. But apparently my youtube-application uses web.vodafone.de connection to access internet - i know that because i received an sms from vodafone that i should use the right connection access point(wap.vodafone.de not web.vodafone.de). So the question is - how to change it? I havent' found any similar threads in this forum or connection-settings in youtube-application.
Change connection settings, or remove the web apn.

Change connection settings where?? In Start->Settings->Connections->Connections i have only one(the right one).
Hmm there usually are some there.
Settings-connections-connections and the Advanced tab.
In select network, you find a list, select the ones to edit/remove.
When editing you get in the middle 'modem' tab. ONe tab on the left is general, you have button 'remove settings' there.
You can also edit them to use the other apn.
It's a bit unlogical, I really never understood how this really works
Yehh! Thanks! Pretty unlogical but now i have a clue.
**BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THESE TOOLS. IT IS ENTIRELY POSSIBLE TO DO IRREPAIRABLE DAMAGE.**
Ripped from the Xperia ROM, these programs allow control over a number of settings in the device.
RegisterEditor should allow direct reading and writing of registers on the qualcomm msm72xx chipset, which will allow control over virtually every setting available, just need to determine addresses and potential values, etc
TBattery talks directly to the battery chipset, and returns values such as mAh capacity, battery temperature, current draw, percentage remaining, etc.
DbgTerm allows real time display of Debug Log on device.
DebugTool allows among other things redirecting of KITL output to USB. You can also configure the level of logging for the Debug Log and have it save the log to SD.
Save Kernel KITL Log to SD:
1.) Open DebugTool.exe, input value 43D in [5]DebugFlags, click menu -> write
2.) Shut Down with Power Button (long press), and start up
3.) Do actions you want to be logged (load program that fails, drivers, etc.)
4.) Plug phone into usb, connect w/activesync and copy off /Storage Card/HtcLog/*.txt
5.) Open DebugTool.exe, input value 0 in [5]DebugFlags, click menu -> write
FMTuner allows direct advanced control over the FM Radio chipset, among other things allows activation without headphones (although I don't see a way to route audio to the speaker)
Uni-AT allows issuing of AT commands to the ROM.
dump a raphael ROM and open up rilphone.dll in a hex editor, look for the strings like +CRING, @AGPSADDRESS, $HSUPA_STATUS, these are AT Commands that can be issued to the radio ROM, to query status and alter settings.
Query an existing setting like so:
AT+CRING?
AT$HSUPA_STATUS?
[email protected]?
Querying a command should give you some input as to the required format.
Change a setting like so:
AT+CRING=1
AT$HSUPA_STATUS=1
[email protected]=1
For a setting with multiple parameters, such as AT+HTCNV, set it like so: AT+HTCNV=param1,param2,param3
Useful AT Commands:
AT+RADIOVER : returns radio rom version
AT+HTCNV : returns +HTCNV: 1,10,8 - param1 = DTM support, 1/0, param2 = MCS support 8/10/12, param3 = HSDPA Category 6/8/12
AT+HTCENS : ENS support 1/0
Reserved for more stuff
WOW!!!!!!!!
this would get alot more views in the diamond section.... thanx for posting it still

However everyone seemed to miss the significance of RegisterEditor entirely, it's listed in the linked Wiki as a 'very basic registry editor' but it has nothing to do with the registry at all..
Anyway, this is a dup post. Doh! But these versions are newer, and i'll try to make it more useful by including more knowledge about the apps
Wow! Kudos for this! Amazing. Register Editor is very powerful. Gotta map this out
Interesting. I wonder if these tools could be useful in unlocking the FM radio on CDMA Touch Pros.
[Edit: I noticed that you specified these were for the 72XX chipset. Any idea what kind of compatibility they have with the 75XX?]
Not sure, worth a try since they are similar, the api might be the same. You should be able to try a read operation without harming anything..
FMTUner Tested on Raphael
I've tested FMtuner on Raphael CDMA but nothing happens, I mean, the tool works, but no frequency is detected.

there is CDMA debugtools set, grab it from any cdma beta rom (maybe posted on ppcgeeks, if not, i can upload it here), similar to gsm but for example the AT tool differs (UNI_AT will not work on CDMA) etc etc.
bump for adding new AT commands
Is there some documentation for tBattery explaining exactly what each reading is?
Also have a suggestion if possible that it include a time hack with each sampe it saves to the log instead of just a start and end time.
Thanks in advance.

yup, copy to eg SDcard to DebugTools folder and run the debugtool
So I got this HTC HERO yesterday from this guy.
I had a hard time getting it to switch/activate to my account on Metro.
Seems the MSL was reset and 000000 wasn't working.
Used CDMA workshop to find out what it had changed to, set it to 000000. Then I was able to edit the MDN MSID and get the phone to work and update PRL via *228.
But Data didn't work.
I used the universal root, used clockwork app to flash amon_ra recovery, made a backup.
And before I got a chance to edit the previous users' gmail/market info, he changed his password, so I couldn't find a way to change that. I used recovery to factory reset/wipe the phone and went through the set up wizard.
Data still doesn't work.
I flashed the Cricket/metropcs mms/web fix, but the phone has stock 1.5 on it, so that didn't make a difference. I am getting an error 67 now though.
Just tried to flash damage control, but it froze at the X animation after a long while or animating..
Just restored back up.
Anyone care to throw a dog a bone, I need some links/threads any help to get this working again.
thanks,.

page about switching phone from Sprint to PagePlus (Verizon) you will get the error 67 unless you are using sprint so diregard that, I dont know if these settings would work for you...but worth a shot right?
quick look up for info:
mmsc string: mms.metropcs.net/mmsc:3128
hahah sweet here ya go my man
Remove your MicroSD card and plug the phone into your PC via USB cable then open QPST (QPST Configuration, then go to Start Clients and select Service Programming) and then read the phone.
Once you read the phone, go to the m.ip tab and change from mobile ip to simple ip. Then look at the first 2 user profiles under m.ip open each one up and change the Nai to [email protected], for both standard and tethered...
remove any ip address that you find in these 2 profiles. and remove any other profiles except the first 2.
also make sure both of them say enabled.
Now go to ppp config tab...
look at the tabs that say um and an... under these 2 tabs,, the user id should be [email protected] tethered id should be the same,, password is metropcs in lowercase on both tabs, remove any dns ip address you find in either tab also. just make sure all ip address are blank.
once you are completed with this make sure you write to the phone and move on to the next step..
Step 2.
click on phone icon (on the phone)
click on the dialer..
enter ##3282#
click user name
click edit
enter your spc which should already be 000000 by now
Here are the settings:
User Name "[email protected]"
SPI MN-HA "1234"
SPI MN-AAA "1234"
M Home Address "000.000.000.000"
Prim Ha Ip "255.255.255.255"
Sec Ha Ip "255.255.255.255"
Rev Tunneling "Off"
AAA Password "metropcs"
HA Password "metropcs"
click done and allow the phone to reboot...
Step 3.
Now do ##3282# again.. this time go to browser
click edit
enter spc
youll see gateway1 and gateway2, under both of these
you will see primary and secondary,,, set primary and secondary ip`s for both gateways to 010.223.002.004,, they will all be the same ip address,, and set the Port 3128 and secure Port 443 for all gatways to ,, hit done and reboot.
Also this should work on quite a few other Sprint phones,,
This is what I do for a living at the wireless company I work for,, and so far it has worked on Samsung upstage, Instinct,, Sanyo katana, and many others,,,
all that info is from a page linked from howardforums.. heres the offical link: http://www.howardforums.com/showthr...nstinct-Web-WAP-Settings-(working-100-)?pp=15
Step 3.
Now do ##3282# again.. this time go to browser
click edit
enter spc

Cool thanks, this is the only thing different from other guides I have followed. Appreciate your time and help.
I've seen people running phones on Metro without rooting or custom roms, so I know it's all got to be in the phone's settings, once it's been houdini "flashed" (esn added to metro's database).. That's how this phone came, guess we lost all the settings when we reset to factory somehow..

Unfortunatly no. It is not saving the password in qpst. But if I look at the settings thru the phone with ##778talk it shows them correctly but still no data.
One tut I followed metions using the msl and proxy.metropcs.net instead. I finally got the phone to give me an error 131, invalid or wrong user name or password.
Read another tut that suggests using [email protected], gonna try that next.
Baffling, I've been doing metropcs phones since 2004 motorola razor. First android though.

EDIT: Same error, unit just can't get data

Clockcycle, what you need is the settings within EPST ( ##3282# ) for your provider and the APN File ?

Hrm, i remember when I was flashing my phone from Sprint to PagePlus that the Data connection was reduced from EVDO to 1x due to the PRL , so maybe try an updated PRL so that you can get EVDO

I also need help with this. I don't get pm me?/? please any help will be most welcome
All in the title, is it possible?
I would imagine you need to access your EPST settings (dial ##778#) and alter them so they match your service providers' settings (you will need your 6-digit MSL code to change the EPST settings).
If ##778# doesn't work on your ROM, you may need to flash to another ROM (like Bittersweet Sense ROM), then configure your EPST settings, and then flash back to CM7.
Alternatively, you may be able to change the EPST settings with the program QPST Configuration/Service Programming and/or CDMA workshop 2.7.0.
Search around the Hero CDMA forum for anything to do with Metro PCS flashing and start reading.
From my experience this has to do with the APN of the phone.

A lot of this is true and I'm also going through it right now in Ohio with Revol Wireless. Just found out last week actually that MetroPCs is buying out Revol Wireless as well.Anyways...I was told by a certain individual here at a Boost mobile store that also flashes for Revol and Metro PCs that when you flash the phone to another network such as Revol or Metro PCS that they only actually do a half-flash on the phone. The calling and messaging work but you must have Wi-Fi to connect to the internet. SMS works but you cannot receive picture messages or MMS. This individual also told me that he had the capability to do a FULL-FLASH of the phone onto Revol for me so that I would even have my mobile internet as well as the picture messaging and MMS capability. He also told me that if you transfer to BOOST Mobile,they have unlimited talk,text,and web for $45 a month and it is a FULL FLASH. I may just go to Boost pretty soon and tell Revol Wireless to suck it! Hope my info helped you out or gave you some food for thought!
P.S. There is some cellphone software out there called Houdinisoft that is used to flash phones. Check their phone list first to make sure you can flash whatever phone using their software,the CDMA HTC Hero200 IS on the list for Houdinisoft. Ask around about it at cell phone stores,they may not say much about it because they dont want the consumer to know how to flash phones. Just some more food for thought.
Hi,
I have a Nokia Lumia 520 Vodafone (I'm not sure if this is the rigth section or this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8/development).
I'm using a MVNO operator. It's everything quite good (connection) but I can't use it in order to have the hotspot.
I try to explain: as default, there are 3 different APN (not related to the MVNO operator but related to the operator who "give" the network to the MVNO) and I added the one correct for the MVNO operator. I use the last one, and the smartphone can connect and so on.
The problem probably is that when I activate the tethering (hot spot) the phone automatically tries to activate another APN (one of the 3 as default) but obviously there isn't any connection (there is a message like "there isn't any connection available").
The solution should be: delete these default APN.. but I can't!
Pushing (holding it) the APN only 2 choice are showed: ACTIVATE and SHOW (neither MODIFY nor DELETE).
Well, the question is: can I in some way delete these APN (or change their values... I don't know, via registry system)??
Please note that the tethering function is officially allowed by the operator and in his opinion the is a phone matter.
Also please note the Vodafone brand is only "a face", I mean this rom doesn't deny any type of connection.
Thanks to help
Known problem; some MOs put a custom configuration for tethering in the registry of their phones. To make tethering work "like normal" you need to remove this custom configuration. It can be done by installing a registry editor via chamber hijacking, but I don't have the details of what changes you need to make handy right now.

Do you think I can do it simply installing something like "Root Tool" (http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/root-tool/f4acc009-ea1e-4063-9bab-fec50195aa1e) ?
Root Tool should let you make the necessary changes, yes. I'm not sure if it supports binary data types, so if you need to edit those you may have trouble, but otherwise it's fine.
Sorry I don't recall the details for making this work. Searching this forum for "Internet Sharing" may help...
