Yeah, I noticed Howard Forums have a lot of Cricket entries. I read some threads that just basically said one would have to try different stores to see which one will do it.

On that note, I just read on the Cricket website that a non-tri band phone will indeed work on the network. In fact, Cricket sells such phones. Which leads me to believe the the clerk I spoke to probably didn't really know what she was talking about. Looks like I'll be doing some store hopping.

Regarding flashing, I just thought it was a matter of selecting Cricket as your provider and bingo! You're done. Flashing seems pretty easy enough and I really enjoyed doing it.

As an added note, I noticed my NAM Name is SPCS. Anyone willing to comment on that?

Anyway, on to more research.
