All I did was change mmsc url mcc mnc in each of the apn's and matched the name to what they were with boost firmware

Okay and you did that manually or did you flash that xml file? I'm about to give it a try

www.shabbypenguin.com/OUDstuff/Samsung/Metro/R530M/Random/Flash-2.zip These are teh Gapps for 4.3

please flash and tell me what isnt working (besides camera) im trying to find out exactly what needs to be edited so that you guys can just flash. if you dont have 4g and you swap apn's and get it let me know, if you have to flash something else etc... let me know what zip. im here to help you guys.

Are you saying I can flash both of these with CWM recovery, and have CM10.1, or do I need to still use the kernal and root from step 3 in the guide
"g) Flash your edited MD4 Baseband/Firmware/Modem zip.
h) Flash CM10.1 zip.
i) Flash Google Apps zip.
j) Flash Root From Recovery zip."

MCC=311 MNC=870 apn under both apn2 settings changed from n.ispsn to n.boost.ispsn also MMSC changed to http://mm.myboostmobile.com MMSC MCC and MMSC were changed under all 4 of the apn's. Hope this helps you. Also make sure to save each one after you finish editing. Then reboot enjoy.

interesting because teh stock apn's have sprint as mms/data. im wondering what is going on here that could be causing such an issue :/

No idea never had mms issues with roms til steeping up to the s3. But other than that is been running flawlessly. Not a single fc or random reboot. Smooth

Shabbypenguin · Jul 31, 2013

ok, i added what i hope to be a fixit solution, but it may cause issues for d2spr owners so i gutta get it tested more, its compiling now

mdprfsr · Aug 1, 2013

@ Shabbypenguin here is the boost apn's if you want to look at them just copied off of a boost s3 that hasn't been messed with yet. http://db.tt/l7Xy3hr4 :screwy:

The informant · Aug 1, 2013

Anyway we can get 4.2 in the meantime or is that too much to ask for? Lol

Shabbypenguin · Aug 1, 2013

damn, ok well teh one i got before didnt have those last two entries in it, and tehy look like they would be the culprit :/

i have teh cm10.2 tree synced right now, i can do 4.2 once i get this mms/4g issues worked out for virgin/boost. with 4.2 it will need to be a complete recompile and taht takes my slow computer a few hours to get it and upload, so will prolly be mid friday at teh earliest

edit # 2 www.shabbypenguin.com/OUDstuff/Samsung/Metro/R530M/Random/cm-10.2-20130801-UNOFFICIAL-d2spr.zip

could a boost user check this out please? this is what i thought would have been good apn's

Used the apn back up and restore ap. To back them up. Then just drop boxed the file.

i need to know what the 4g issue is? im assuming it means it doesnt work, does it after apn swap? or some other fix? or does it NEVER work?

edit: jupiterone that means you are using a different recovery than the sprint one

When in a 4G LTE area, the data turns off, (on LTE/CDMA/EvDo setting) y ou can switch it to just CMDA/EvDo) and 3g turns on.

You can get it...3G/wifi only. it should run flawlessly. but, it defeats the purpose of 4g on the phone.

newest test. boost mobile and virgin mobile people should be able to get and send mms with this, boost should get 4g as well. virgin need confirmation etc

mdprfsr · Aug 1, 2013

@Shabbypenguin you rock will test when I get a chance. Thanks again :screwy:
Downloading now

Ping0 · Aug 1, 2013

i'll try it now... Still no 4G.. But it comes and goes where i live at, i can take it for a cruise tomorrow is the best i can do. MMS is a no go on VM. try the 2nd set on APNS, it should work flawless for both boost and VM. but still the 4g isssue. 4.3 seems incredibly unstable atm. Any way we could work on 4.2? or is it out of the question?

Shabbypenguin · Aug 1, 2013

i can, its just not going to be tonight. the 2nd apn you provided wont work for boost.

www.shabbypenguin.com/OUDstuff/Sams.../cm-10.2-20130801-UNOFFICIAL-d2spr-test-2.zip

this is my final build of the night. do the usual apn tricks, virgin mobile people lemme know if this works with 4g, boost lemme know if this works at all after apn swap etc. i used teh virgin mobile libs, had a sprint user say it worked fine but never can be certain...
