Hdr An Auth
 

I have the Touch with Sprint. I just upgraded to the new Sprint WM 6.1 ROM. What are the HDR AN AUTH User ID and password settings supposed to be set to? After the ROM upgrade, the user ID was my ESN(HEX)@hcm.sprintpcs.com, and the password was a bunch of weird ascii characters. The PPP user ID and password were blank. Is that what they're supposed to be set to?

So no one knows what these settings should be set to?

Okay, I think I fixed my issue.

After upgrading my ROM, I was having trouble getting an EVDO connection, which I now think was caused by just being in an area where there is little or no EVDO service. I read on several posts here and on xda where people were having similar sounding problems that the HDR AN AUTH password should be your hex ESN, so, upon going to ##778#->security and seeing a bunch of garbage ascii charaters in the password field, I assumed this was my problem. So rather than being cautious and doing a little more research, I replaced the password with my hex ESN. This was a bad move, because if I needed that ascii garbage password, there was no way to get it back.

Luckily, after much searching, I found what I think is the exact same garbage ascii string in ##778#->M.IP Default Profile->AAA Shared Secret. I was able to copy that string and paste it into Security->HDR AN AUTH Password. Now everything seems to be working great.

So just to summarize, for anyone else who might be wondering if they have the correct settings under ##778#->Security, here is what is working for me:
HDR AN AUTH User Id: HEX_ESN@hcm.sprintpcs.com
HDR AN AUTH Password: ascii garbage (a lot of "□"s)
PPP USER ID: blank
PPP PASSWORD: blank
