Root [MetroPCS/CDMA] Axis ROM for MetroPCS

Great news everyone i got Aosp mms to work with RSL 21 and 20. I was just playing around seeing what could i do to make it work so i still stuff in different oreders and wiped it differently each time and finally i got it to work. (data and AOSP works)

Its easy ..... (wipe cache,dalvik,factory/data,system)
Flash the rom as normal (choose AOSP mms) , don't let it reboot after, Flash the kernal ...Reboot. You won't have data...YET....but dont set anything up, don't sign into gmail or samsung or anything else it ask you (dont connect to wifi), (you can put in your name tho), after just let your phone settle for 10 min , you can adjust your settings if you want....Ringtones,volumes,wallpaper..etc, now after those 10 mins reboot to recovery and flash the goodness fix and dont wipe anything. Then just reboot again. You should have data working now and AOSP mms also working. This is what worked for me and should work for your also. The only thing that i havent figured out is that you cant send pictures ( it just says sending and ive waited 20 min to see if it would eventually send and still nada.

I hope this workes for you guys

Man im so tempted to flash this rom again but ever since I lost my 4g after flashing synergy rom I decided to stop flashing unsupported roms :/ only in house supported roms like number two and Metropolis is what I'll flash now.

I hope we can get in house support on this rom though. Cause i miss all the features and smoothness. It is honestly one of the best built roms I've ever flashed besides Metropolis of course;) (always gotta give the shabbster his respect)

Was running this ROM before I went back to Metropolis 1.3.0 never gave me a single prob other than no mms.

I flashed the fresh install of the new version 21 with metrofix and the lean kernel and everything works for me. I have also had problems with roms making my 4G not work anymore but I just restore King Kang in order to use its settings and re-enable 4g to make it work again (so don't trip if you run into this problem, I have done this multiple times when playing around with certain roms that drop my 4G and it works everytime) or any rom that has the options in data settings to go from 2g/3g to 2g/3g/4g I figure should work to restore your 4G. Happy rom testing

Everyone. I have tested this more then once over the last week. Axis does not need a kernel . Nor a fix to work. All that is missing is a apn file. To let mobile data to work.

No fix will work to make sms to mms for this feature to work you will have to admit a slide and type away... but auto convert is disable.

For data to work we do not.I repeat do not need a kernel . A file apn file is missing. To fix this you must back it before flashing and restore it after the install lf the rom I personally use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xsylus.android.APNsBU its very easy.

So again . No kernel needed.

No fix needed

And sms to mms or split is only done by making a slide

Any questions let me know.




If you cant figure it out leave it be til a real fix os released.


Edit: Ghost rider I lied ... Kernel fixes WiFi only
