Re: I've tried everything to get my Metro PCS internet setup. Please help!!!
The stuff that they talk about is pretty much what I tried. I used:
9727818284@mymetropcs.com as my username, and metropcs as my password. I setup the proxies exactly like it said to (wap.metropcs.net with correct ports). Now I did have a question. When you setup the proxies, my phone has an option to individually setup a username and password for each proxy server. Should I be putting anything here or leaving it blank? I still don't have any web... |

Re: I've tried everything to get my Metro PCS internet setup. Please help!!!
All right. I want to be a little clearer about exactly what I've done. I was in a hurry to go to work earlier and I think that I was a little vague.
I'm following the tutorial and I'll explain in detail how I responded to each step: 1: Check your Windows\startup folder for "HTC_CM_Guardian.lnk", which is a shortcut to Windows\HTC_CM_Guardian.exe. If the shortcut exists delete it. If not then you probably have a newer Sprint ROM which doesn't have the shortcut to launch that application. It is still launching it in some other way however and I have not been able to figure it out from searching forums and the web. The general consensus is to replace the file with a dummy file that I've attached (extract from the zip). Download the attached file and replace "Windows\HTC_CM_Guardian.exe" with the dummy file which will prevent it from running. I checked my windows folder, but I'm using Juicy 4.3 and I think that this file is not included in the ROM. In any case, it is not there. 2: Rename the following files and folders: Windows\iota.exe ---> windows\iotaOLD.exe Windows\iotaconf.txt ---> windows\iotaconfgOLD.txt Program Files\IOTA ---> Program Files\IOTAOLD Once again, these files are not in my windows folder. I'm not sure what effect these files have on my connection, but I was unable to edit them. 3: Open your phone and enter ##778#, select "EDIT" and enter your unlock code. I did this with no problem. My unlock code was just 000000. 4: Set the following values: M.IP Settings: MIP_MODE = Simple IP Only M.IP Default Profile: NAI = yourtendigitphonenumber@mymetropcs.com Home Address = 0.0.0.0 (just delete the values and save) Primary HA Address = 0.0.0.0 (just delete the values and save) Secondary HA Address = 0.0.0.0 (just delete the values and save) Security: HDR AN AUTH User Id = yourtendigitphonenumber@mymetropcs.com PPP USER ID = yourtendigitphonenumber@mymetropcs.com PPP PASSWORD = metropcs My number is 972-781-8284, so I used the following: M.IP Settings: MIP_MODE = Simple IP Only M.IP Default Profile: NAI = 9727818284@mymetropcs.com Home Address = 0.0.0.0 (set to 0.0.0.0) Primary HA Address = 0.0.0.0 (set to 0.0.0.0) Secondary HA Address = 0.0.0.0 (set to 0.0.0.0) Security: HDR AN AUTH User Id = 9727818284@mymetropcs.com PPP USER ID = 9727818284@mymetropcs.com PPP PASSWORD = set to metropcs 5: Goto Connections and delete any existing connections and setup a new one using the following settings: Number to dail = #777 Username: yourtendigitphonenumber@mymetropcs.com Password: metropcs Domain: (Leave Blank) Select Proxy Settings and enter the following values: wap.metropcs.net port:3128 (http) wap.metropcs.net port:3128 (wap) wap.metropcs.net port:443 (secure wap) wap.metropcs.net port:3128 (socks) I changed my settings to this: Number to diall = #777 Username: 9727818284@mymetropcs.com Password: metropcs Domain: (Left Blank) I set my proxies to the following values: wap.metropcs.net port:3128 (http) wap.metropcs.net port:3128 (wap) wap.metropcs.net port:443 (secure wap) wap.metropcs.net port:3128 (socks) So I click on the new connection and select the "Connect" option. It tries to connect and then it says that my username and password is wrong for #777. I try to go on the web and it won't connect. Also, when I go back and look at the connection, it deletes what I entered for the http option in the proxy settings. The other 3 settings are still there (wap, secure wap, and socks). I'm not sure what else to try. I used the *228 option and updated my PRL firmware. It still doesn't let me connect. Please help!!! |

Re: I've tried everything to get my Metro PCS internet setup. Please help!!!
Is that just the connection password, or do I need to update the PPP PASSWORD in Security?
EDIT: I tried doing just the connection password to mymetropcs and then I tried doing both the connection and teh PPP Password to mymetropcs. Still no change. It won't connect... Any other ideas? Also, why is the HTTP Proxy address deleting itself? I save it each time that I enter it and then after it can't connect, the HTTP is gone... Last edited by Jbbrack03; 02-23-2009 at 09:14 PM. |

Re: I've tried everything to get my Metro PCS internet setup. Please help!!!
Ok, when I'm setting up my proxy connections, there is an option to input a username password and domain for each proxy address. Do I need to input my info for each address? Right now I'm just typing in the wap address and leaving those blank.
Also, when I'm inputing the socks proxy, I can't enter a username and password (those are grayed out). But it does give an option to select a socks 4 or socks 5 proxy. Which one do I need (right now it is on socks 4)? Last edited by Jbbrack03; 02-23-2009 at 09:21 PM. |
