[FIX] Get Sprint Data To Work On Custom Roms.

[mjs2011]

Hi all.

Unfortunately it looks like the other thread was closed and I would like to help out other Sprint users who want to flash custom Roms. The fix should be flashed during initial installation, so:

1. Flash ROM
2. Gapps
3. SU (if necessary)
4. Sprint APN Fix zip

Data is confirmed to work out of the box on the following Roms, meaning there's no need to flash the fix:

CM11 based Roms
Cataclysm
Slimkat
Nitrous
Kangakat
Beergang

I'll update this list as Roms developers add their own fix.

I do not take credit for this as I did not create this zip (Thanks to Motcher41 for creating it). I'm just passing it along to help other Sprint users.

The fix for data on custom roms is not in the apns file, its adding the missing proprietary need to "authenicate" your device to sprint which runs during the initial setup in the setup wizard. The developers need to add the missing stuff "OmaDmclient.apk" and thats it ....

After flashing this zip did LTE work for you on ROMs outside of this list?

If someone could please test and report back, that would be great as well. I've been using it for a week or so but just want to make sure it's good for everyone else.

The zip has been working fine for me too. You can add beergang to the list of ROMS working out of the box for Sprint data. It rubs smoothly

Anyone know if this "Sprint" fix works for Ting users as well? Its an MVNO that uses Sprint towers (includes LTE). Still waiting on my SIM card, but just wondering if i'll be able to flash custom ROMs.

I would try it out. The zip should have all APN's in it.

i flashed this over rastakat rom and still no data

Did you flash it right after flashing ROM/GAPPS? The one thing I noticed is that the only way to get it to work is to flash the fix before the first boot. I'm using the fix on Ratakat Rom as we speak.

Psx?

Has any one tried this with Psx? I get no data going to try again when I get home..

Hurray lol

Yerp it works:victory:

I got my n5 for christmas and i've never had data problems on any of the roms i've installed. o_o

however, i haven't been been able to receive sms messages on anything but the stock rom.

Does this work for non-Nexus 5 devices? I installed a 4.4.2 ROM on my Sprint Galaxy Note 2 and am seeing a similar data activation issue.

It should, I am using it on an ls980 (lg g2)

 

[misfit0313]

With the impending 4.4.3 update and Spark activation, will the APN settings need to be updated? Will the zip in post 1 still be correct?
