[Q] MetroPCS shift user questions

---

4 questions that are problems that i have with my evo shift on metropcs and i would like to know if anyone has solutions to these problems.

1. Anyone know how to change the banner from mymetropcs.com to MetroPCS? ( I've tried to change it through CDMA workshop and I would save it and it would not change.)

2. Anyone know how to enhance the signal on this phone? I know it's flashed but am not getting service in most places.

3. Anyone know the kernel i could flash to the supreme sense 7.5 ROM?

4. How can i get voice mail notifications on this phone ? I have to manually call my phone number just to manage and know how many voice mails i have. So may anyone know or can direct me to a thread or solution to this problem.

I would really appreciate the help please and thank you very much
NOTE: (Underlined questioned have already been answered on thread)

Well... icl could answer ur second question (if it helps) Dial *228 and wait till the machine says "for the latest roaming list, say roaming list" and just say "roaming list". Wait a little until the machine finishes. Press exit once your done. What this does is update your prl which gives you a better chance of getting 3g/4g.

yo mean 3g if lucky this phone doesn't run on LTE 4G it actually updated the prl and unlocked something idk but it said that i programmed the phone and it was successful and it rebooted Thanks again

No prob OH btw it unlocks your spl...

I can answer the kernel question kinda, and that's because its up to the kernel to decide if it likes your phone, I know it sounds weird but one kernel isn't good for all phones, I used to run x99s ext3 kernel because for some reason I just could never get the dodge kernel to agree with my phone/current setup or settings, but then dodge released a conversion for an ext4 file system and has an amazing ext4 kernel to go with the conversion, so I guess its just all about how the kernel decides to act on your phone, also not all phones can handle the same clock speed either mine tops out at 1804 any higher ill lock up, but I know people that can make it to 2 GHz+ so try them all it won't hurt anything

Make sure you DL the right Kernel , for your Rom version. 2.2 Kernels do not work with 2.3 Roms, and the same goes the other way around. If you have a 2.2 Rom you need a 2.2 Kernel. If you have a 2.3 Rom you need a 2.3 Kernel.

kernel = dodge 1.6.

data = search for ##3282# tweaks. willpost more later.

Has this kernal been tested to work ?
