Root [WORKING] MMS working HTC Evo V 4g

Update: 7/27/2013 - Fully working for me.

OP: First off I am using Angry Bean 07172013, second I am also using Textra however I tested it and found that it works with the stock messenger. Third I cannot guarantee this is going to work with your phone. Lastly with that being said I am in no way responsible if your phone breaks in any way when you attempt this.

With that being said here we go:

Go to Voice Dialer and say "Open APNs". Open the APN that's there and change the settings to what I have here:

Code:
Name: SPG
APN: Sprint
Proxy: Not Set
Port: Not Set
Username: Sprint
Password: *
Server: *
MMSC: [url]http://mmsc.vmobl.com:8088/mms?[/url]
MMS Proxy: (Leave blank)
MMS Port: (Leave blank)
MCC: 311
MNC: 120
Authentication type: PAP or CHAP
APN Type: Not Set
APN Protocol: IPv4
APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4
Bearer: Unspecified

Then using a root enabled browser (I use Root Browser) go to system/ and long press "build.prop" and select edit. Change this section to this:

Code:
gsm.operator.alpha = Virgin Mobile US
gsm.operator.numeric = 311490

ro.cdma.home.operator.numeric=311490
ro.cdma.home.operator.alpha=Virgin Mobile US

That's it. That's all I did and everything was working.
 
My MMS is working on Angry Bean's 07/03/2013.
Only issue (sort of) I have is that MMS only works when WiFi is off.
Other ROMs I've used were able to either Turn the WiFi Off during Incoming/Outgoing MMS. Or MMS would still work with WiFi on.

Man, I must be lucky then because my MMS sends just fine with WiFi turned on.

Only issue I have is that I have to toggle airplane mode on and off a lot because all data seems to just stop working, even WiFi
