I was having the exact same problem with Verizon.

Make sure your SIM Card is removed from your phone. You shouldn't really even need WiFI for now.. but once you get booted into Android, go into settings > networks > wireless networks > (it will scan for networks) > and hit "select automatically". You might notice there is a blank name in the list of carriers it will show you, don't quote me.. but i'm guessing thats your CDMA provider. Anyhow, it should only take a few seconds, but it should register on the network and you should now have working 3g data. If this doesn't work, just make sure you follow all of the steps in the 1st and 3rd post.

*another tip..

Make 100% sure the build you are using from the kernel autobuild site actually works. You have to read through them sometimes to make sure certain changes they have made didn't effect anything major, so use your best judgement and try to find one that they say is the most stable and recent.

Hope this helps.

Yes it is.. You can always check the following link: http://glemsom.anapnea.net/android/htc-msm-android/

Mouse over the Build log for all changes.

If a build makes something worse, simply revert back to your last image and modules files

You can also check http://gitorious.org/linux-on-qualcomm-s-msm/linux-msm to see more details on what's being worked on.

One more:
Here's the status of the rootfs.. I don't think these work as simple drop in replacements, but it's good to whet your appetite

Sorry for the delayed response. "i'm working" lol..

Nope, didn't put the sim card back in.. and honestly there really isn't any point to unless you plan on going overseas.

I had an issue with my wifi working too. Make sure that when you copy over the zImage to the root of the drive you delete the old modules and add the corresponding modules file (without renaming) to the root of the SD drive also. This fixed my wifi issue right away. This was using the build titled
