Got ROMs? Flashable ZIPs for your Alltel MAXX!

So what's everyone up to? Been pretty quiet here the last couple days.

Sorry homie. I've just been really busy with forum stuff and my regular job. I'll have something cool cooked up on Monday, I promise (almost, lol.) Still working on MMS and I have to go through and process updates (if any) to the ROMs I have up now.
 
Good to know. Just making sure everyone is still alive Haha. Its been abnormally quiet around here. Meanwhile I'm still waiting on my replacement maxx.

I tried Craptorman's fix for the MMS.apk and it still doesn't seem to be working. Still going strong trying to figure it out though.
 
Thanks for the update. I got my replacement phone today and apparently they sent me a Verizon maxx. The guy at the alltel store tried to activate it and call and text work but no data and he said it has the wrong software version on it. Now I get to wait another 5 days for another replacement. Its been a pain but I'd never be in this predicament if I didn't screw up my first one to begin with.

Damn. It would have been cool if you could have scored an Alltel system image out of it.

Sure would've. They shoulda been able to flash it for him. But then again, they have NO CLUE as to what to do-most of them anyway.

I'm prolly gonna try sbf_flash just for the fun of it. At least on an old Milestone X2 my son has. I have an Alltel SBF for it and I want to see if I perform a flash with sbf_flash if the radio changes. From all the reading I've done, it will not flash the radio. If that is the case, then in a worst case scenario like iaminflames had, we could flash back to stock with a Verizon SBF and keep 3G and cell signals.
 
Yea I was thinking they probably could've flashed it for me but the guy got on the phone without alltel and they told him they would have to send a new one. I noticed before I took it in it had a Verizon prl on it.

I guess they couldn't have flashed it now that I think about it, unless they have magical tools we don't, since the image wouldn't be signed for that model.

I've been fighting with MMS all day. I'm about to give up. Does anyone else hate using GoSMS or is it acceptable?

I've picked apart both the stock and the aftermarket APKs in both ICS and JB and tried every trick I could think of. Either I get the same behavior (stuck on "Sending") or the app just force closes on me.
 
I'd definitely be fine with a 3rd party sms app. Its a small price to pay for awesome roms.

It's a weird setup -- something I have never seen. The /system/etc in the original stock system contains around 70 different apns-conf files. If I have Notepad++ search the whole folder for the word 'ALLTEL' here's what I get.

In the file apns_conf-1, which I am inclined to believe is the one the phone reads from because of the carrier.id in the build prop being "-1", here's what I get:

You should be able to find the stock APN settings by opening the Voice Dialer app (on stock rom of course) and say "open apns" and it should open to show you these. You could also get the app called xShorcut and create a shortcut to APNs. This should give us exactly the ones we need.

I thought it was odd as well that there are so many apns-xml files.

There were two listed, both named ALLTEL 2. Here they are.

Ok, I'll start with the AOKP / PA Hybrid Build (King Kang) 12/20/2012 build rom. This is my favorite at this time.

Add the following to the apns-conf.xml. I added them on line 30 right after the Boost Mobile one.
Code: 
<apn carrier="ALLTEL 2" mcc="310" mnc="330" apn="internet" user="" password="" server="*" proxy="" port="" mmsc="http://mms.alltel.com/servlets/mms/" mmsproxy="mms.alltel.com" mmsport="8080" type="default,mms,stdhipri"/>
  <apn carrier="ALLTEL 2" mcc="310" mnc="330" apn="internet" user="" password="" server="*" proxy="" port="" mmsc="http://mms.alltel.com/servlets/mms/" mmsproxy="mms.alltel.com" mmsport="8080" type="dun"/>

Next add the following to the build.prop right after the line gsm.operator..numeric=310000
Code: 
ro.cdma.home.operator.alpha=ALLTEL 2
ro.cdma.home.operator.numeric=310330

Next grab this Mms.apk and copy it to /system/app and overwrite the existing one (make a backup of origonal one:) using a file manager like root explorer. Once its copied over change the permisions to match the other apps in this fold. Next tap the Mms.apk app and install it. If I built it right it should install without an error. If you get an error let me know. I had to reboot to get it take effect. Also you'll want to "Open APNS" and you should see the two listed.

@cole2kb - you could probably throw all this in your patch files once its confirmed working.
 
No luck.. However, I've been told that MMS is flaky for Verizon users as well on the Jellybean ROMs, so that could be our issue as well (unless it's working for you.)

Still just gets stuck on 'sending'.
 
Well that sucks. Its working for me fine but I'm not on verizon or alltel. Strange. Did you try to wipe cache and dalvik.

I did it on a fresh install, meaning that I did all the changes inside the patch including adding the Mms.apk to the zip file before flashing

The only other thing I can think of is that because although this time I wasn't able to test it, I can usually get to the point of receiving MMS but not sending them, that the "custom header" that is defined in the alltel_overlay has something to do with it.
 
One last idea, once the fresh install and patch is done, boot up, navigate to the mms.apk file and tap it to run it thru its install again, reboot and test. Seems like I had to do that, not sure tho, to many irons in the fire lately.
