Loss of cellular radio after upgrade

I'm breaking this post out of the No2Chem's upgrade post as it got burried pages deep before any answers.

I'm looking for a little advice. I borked my phone, all my fault, detailed in this thread: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=21727

I'm on Verizon, successfully upgraded from stock to the 3.16 radio and the 5049 rom a couple wks back, then successfully upgraded to the newest Sprint radio and the 5055 rom. All was wonderful and I mistakenly ran a *228 option 2 (update roaming) and lost my cell radio (all it would do was search).

Many calls to tech service have yeilded no help and I can't be truthful as its not VZW's rom...

I can go back to stock VZ rom with no problems (after I call to get a new A key) but I can't seem to get back to the new 3.35 radio and the 5055 rom.

I can get through both the Sprint package (to update radio and rom) and then, prior to customizing, enter boot loader and upgrade to 5055, but each and every time I loose the cell radio.

Interestingly, when I go finally load up and just prior to the 5055 rom running its customization, I do see good cellular reception and the right upper led flashes green but after the customization and its reboot it comes up with no green flashing led and the searching dots under the radio antenna icon.

After running the 5055 for a week I could never go back to the stock rom, I'm too spoiled!


Thanks in advance folks...
