Re: Palm Pre Comprehensive Guide for switching carriers, Please Sticky

Hi All,

I'm trying to bring my pre over to verizon, and I'm having some issues with qxdm rewriting the spc. Per the guide, i found the reference at 0x00A5C2AA, but when I rewrite it to zeros, it shows as taken, but I still can't issue the command "spc 000000" without it barking incorrect. I've read it takes some shenanigans to get esn/meid's to rewrite, but I haven't really seen any issues with just the spc writing. What am I doing wrong here?

Currently the spc comes back:

30 36 32 33 32 31

Then I change to:

30 30 30 30 30 30

... and it comes back 000000 when I recheck, but always comes back incorrect with. I rebooted the phone, and it then referenced the original spc once again reverting. What am I doing wrong? Should I be doing something else to get it to change in NVram somehow?

Also, as far as the PRL's, I'm pulling the latest PRL from corolada.com for verizon, but do I simply need only the "edge" list, or the "non-edge" list as well? The very latest are not a link, and I'm not certain how to reference the "latest" number or add to the prl. Would someone be so good to clarify a bit?

Other than those caveats, this is a great help indeed - thanks a bunch for sharing!
