I am trying to solve a problem regarding an error message on Verizon and it was suggesting that flashing back to stock, then back to a custom ROM without doing a hard reset fixed it.

If there is something left behind, it may narrow down where I have to look.
Thanks!

I find it leaves all my programming intact, as far as provisioning and server settings. Meaning whatever I had set is what remains. I have set mine to Home Only, as any other setting renders my device unusable because of the popup you are trying to figure out. So after flashing stock and then custom, that setting remains set to Home Only and I don't even have to do a *228 to get service. But if I hard reset after flashing the custom, these settings get wiped.
Not sure that this exactly the information you are after, but I'm willing to try whatever at this point to make a permanent fix for this. As my solution seems to only be a workaround that works for me. I can constantly produce this message where I live, if I don't set it to Home Only.
