I installed the alltel mms pkg but can't receive pics hope this will help.
To prevent the Sprint customizations from running.....after flashing the stock Sprint ROM on your phone (which should already have Olipro 2.4 on it) the flashing process will complete and you'll see the animated Sprint logo, etc....the screen will display a message to 'tap' the screen to begin the customization process...DO NOT TAP THE SCREEN. Leave everything as is...the phone will re-establish an activesync connection.....let it sync...don't unplug your USB cable or reset or anything. Start your rom update utility (RUU) with your custom ROM and flash like normal. There are a bunch of threads here and on xda-developers about folks who let the Sprint stuff run on their phones and now they're having difficulty getting rid of the Sprint stuff and re-provisioning their phones for their own carriers. There are a couple good write ups to get your phone back to stock and start over but it sounds like several had to contact tech support and get their accounts straightened out. I don't do pic msgs so I can't help you there....DCD's kitchen has a couple options for those programs.
