Re: 260 error with Sprint, completely lost.

A SIM Lock and a CID lock are NOT the same thing!

A SIM lock determines what SIM cards you can use. That is unlocked out of the box and can be check in Security as you pointed out.

A CID lock determines what ROMs your device can flash. This NEVER comes unlocked out of the box!

Read the ROM Flashing information as a starting point... You need to run the HardSPL to remove the CID lock...
