There is also the ##PROGRAM method. Dial that out and place it as a call, SPC is 000000. From there change top option that says activation, VZW's default SID nationwide is 2004, 4192 VZW in Tampa area, 42 for Alltel. Pop that in, press back until the phone restarts. If you did it right you'll be on VZW regardless of where you're at and *228 should work just fine. NOTE: If you're roaming well outside a VZW coverage area *228 may do nothing but try to route to customer service, check coverage map on their website.
