Re: Flashed phone many times, now can't authenticate phone?

This happens to me every time I flash back to the Verizon OEM 6.5 Rom. My understanding is that this somehow corrupts the phones MEID or IMEI key in the phone (go to Settings\System\Device Information)

Sometimes a level 1 tech will understand what is wrong and be able to fix it, but I have had quicker service by asking for Level 2 support right out of the gate. They will likely have you dial *228 or another number to get it "on the air". Once the network sees the phone they can generate a new key. Soft reset the phone and you should be good.
