Question about flashing Touch Pro to MetroPCS.....

The Metro store said they could flash my Touch Pro over to MetroPCS w/ just talk and text..........

If I take my Touch Pro to a MetroPCS store and have them flash it w/o the internet and pic mail, etc.........can I still take it to someone who knows how to do it later and have them activate the features that Metro can't activate like internet, pic mail, & GPS???

Thanks in advance.

Yes, I bought an unlocked TP and got it flashed at a metro store then took it to a guy. Now I have unlimited talk, text, MMS, GPS (google maps, NOT turn by turn), Internet, e-mail, uploads to facebook and youtube.

All that for 50 bucks is just unbeatable.

Re: Question about flashing Touch Pro to MetroPCS.....

Hi, Pembroke Pines, Florida. It was a 50 minutes drive for me, but the guy did it in less than an hour. I found him in craigslist. Google around and you should be able to find someone near you, just make sure you don't mail the phone to anyone. On a sad note I'm having a little bit of trouble with the keyboard, it seems to be a relatively common hardware problem in the TP .
Besides that I'm happy with the phone and actually looking forward to give this one to my wife (she doesn't text or use the internet or office as much as I do, so she would be OK if the keyboard dies) and get a TP2 as soon as I'm positive about it working OK. Good luck
