Motorola Droid on Cricket??

[XSYLUS]

Over on HoFo they're talking about monster files for the Droid:

There's been a solution for the moto droid..search the droid forums for the correct monster files: VZW_A855_ESD56_QSC6085BP_C_01.3E.01P_SW_UPDATE_03. sbf & VZW_A855_ESD20_QSC6085BP_C_01.3B.01P_SW_UPDATE.sbf

you also need rsd lite 4.6 (remember the q)

the sbf files are factory verizon files. i posted that on hofo. lol

Yea, but still doesn't mean I have to pay you for a solution.

You should edit the PST settings yourself as in Ryan Mogul's thread for WinMo phones. I did all of this on a Droid Eris (NO ROOT), and the phone works perfectly.

In other words, it's not necessarily about the right ROM. It's about editing the APN just right. It's not complicated, really. The DROID apn backed up .xml file can't be that much different than the Droid Eris, the solution for which I've already posted.

The Droid Eris is by HTC who doesn't lock down the EVDO settings like Motorola does. Droid and Droid Eris are two different phones. If it were that easy it would have been solved already. ##778 doesn't do anything on the Droid plus you can edit the APN settings by just going to the voice dialer app and saying "open APN" don't even need to edit the XML file.

So there are a small few of us enjoying EVDO.... personally I have been able to get working EVDO wap and mms on a cricket moto droid. I'm sure others will follow and have it soon enough, or it will leak.

I think its funny how Creators of a Commercial solution charge a bundle of money for a solution to flash ONE phone then try to regulate the little man next door's pockets. Just my 2.

the reason why we don't post the solution is because many of you will use this info to gain $$$, i did release the solution to someone and he decided to sale it for profit so i stop doing that. solutions should be free and we should be able to share but some of you don't understand any of that. it took me about 3 days playing around with programs until i found a way for the settings to stick permanently, now i am able to use my droid on metropcs with EVDO working

Yea, but if you do release the solution for FREE the people trying to sell it will not have a consumer base. Your logic is so bassackwards; but NOT sharing the solution freely with EVERYONE you're only helping him make money. There's no way to know if your solution is the one for sale on ebay since there have been several people to crack it, I'd almost venture to say you won't freely give away the solution because you don't know how you did it, you just tinkered until something worked. Just post details one what you tried a let the rest of us test it out and narrow down the actual needed steps.

In QXDM should I be in the NV Browser? I'm not seeing any user configurable options there. QXDM is not very intuitive. I've read the QXDM pdf guide but I'm still not clear on the correlation of QXDM with the PPP/EVDO settings of the Droid.

hey san how are you ? i am curious as to how u got EVDO (aka 3G) working on metro when metro doesn't even have it.
other question is im getting a Moto Droid soon and your location says Hollywood, now is that Cali or South FL ? if it's Cali does metro have 3G ?
