PPC-6700 to Verizon / pageplus ARGH

Hi folks

Newbie here

I picked up a Sprint PPC-6700 thinking it would be easy to convert to Verizon to use on page plus.

Wow, what a mistake.

I've spent about 10 hours trying to get it working correctly.

I followed this guide:

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=20090

I'm on bootloader 1.00.00

I've had the phone on PDAjunkie's clean Apache 6.5 ROM.

After a lot of tinkering (and running on my WinXP media server) I've cooked a few WM6.1 ROMs (as verizon carrier, particularly).

PRL has been updated. DMU has been loaded with the public key (as in the above thread). SPC is 000000 thanks to e47. I know the ESN is activated on pageplus.

Here's my status. I cannot dial up pageplus @ *22890 (immediately disconnected). I can dial up Verizon at *228 and program the phone and do an PRL update.

After that, I can call out normally. But I cannot receive calls and I don't get text messages unless I place a call.

I can't load a stock Verizon rom on it either (it tells me invalid device for use). Interestingly when I built a GENERIC rom via ppckitchen it tried to install Sprint customizations upon boot.

EDIT: If I switch the phone to 1X mode (no EVDO and no hybrid mode) I can receive calls. So it's EVDO that is broken.

Any help would be really appreciated.

EDIT2: Went into ##7764726 and tinkered a little and somehow hybrid mode started working! Can get calls now. Data still doesn't work (ERI wouldn't load) - modem disconnects.

Re: PPC-6700 to Verizon / pageplus ARGH

I think all the stuff in there is set right, but I guess I'm not sure of it (since data isn't working something is probably still wrong).

In the modem settings, is it mynumber@vzw3g.com / vzw , or MDN@vzw3g.com?

By the way,

now that I have calling working, is it reasonably safe to go back and install something like PPAJ's generic Apache wm6.5 ROM again without breaking it? I hesitate to play with it further after the amount of hours I spent getting it to work.

Howdy. It is safe to install the a generic ROM as it won't touch anything in the ESPT. As for data, should be 10dig@vzw3g.com

The MDN and your phone number are the same number, so you were right either way. At least, they are for sprint phones.

Actually your MDN will be changed to the one asigned for your area when you do *228.
