I have my mogul on sprint now and I have a metro pcs account as well. If I can eliminate the $110 that I am giving sprint each and every month just by changing a few things in my Mogul I will take that road.
As I have stated I am a noobie to all of this flashing and changing of specs on a phone. The question that I poise to you as well as everyone on this forum is that you have a thread titled "Sprint PPC6800 Successfully flashed to Metropcs", but when others ask how the phone was added to Metro PCS no one clearly explains how it was done. I thought forums were to help share the knowledge not supress it. Like I said i am new to this enviroment but I am not sure why everyone does not want this phone on Metro PCS.

I was the one that initiated the thread, by then, i did not know about the ESN change regulations and policies. The Metropcs dillema has two basic steps.

ONE: Get your mogul's ESN into Metropcs Network
- This one we cannot help you here. Either you find a good soul in a metropcs store that will enter it for you, or you take the other road into cloning ( very doable, but ilegal to discuss here ) - Google is your best frend in this case.

TWO: Change PRL, MSID, NAM, Flash New rom and MMS / Internet Settings
- This one we will be glad to help you step-by-step if you cant find here by searching.

Fred,

I am a hard worker and I will stick with it and report back if I come across anything. I am able to use my phone on Metro PCS now. I think I have better reception now that it is on the network than what I had with Sprint.

Here is where I am stuck at the moment. I flashed a custom rom from Kaos, I just cannot stand the sprint roms. I was told to delete the HTC file in Windows Setup and that file cannot be deleted. I have made all the changes per the thread and each time I go to connect to the net is dials the sprint default connection. I have tried many times to delete that connection and it never goes away.

I just need to delete that setting and keep it gone

were you able to enter EPST? Did you get you MSL code? because i am sure that there are a lot of Sprint settings inside there. Also, there was another Guy here with the same problem, and i am going to quote what he said: "Ok, I flashed to a different rom (was on OMJ 3.09) and now on WDM's and was able to fix the problem instantly." So.... Try to flash a new kitchen rom or something. One more try, If you got Metro on it im sure you could connect the phone with QPST, there check all tabs ( CDMA, NAM1, NAM2, ETC ) and maybe you will find something related to an old phone number @ sprintpcs.com that might fix it as well

Fred

I am able to get into the EPST and I am able to go into the QPST. the next step is where I get lost. Where should I be looking for anything that says Sprint. there are so many tabs if you kno what I mean.

Well I opened up the CDMA workshop. Once the phone is connected the ESN and Number read failed. Would this be a problem with why I cannot get online with my phone.

Make sure you set the DM baud rate to 38400. I find it doesn't work right at higher speeds.

Humm... wrong forum. Here we deal with HTC Titan ( Sprint Mogul )
