I got voice and text messages back!!! Turns out my min settings were all f'd up (for some reason they were all my phone number), now with that fixed i have voice and text.... still no data, but i should be getting a dmu reset at some point today. w00t!

so the keys to the story:
1. dont switch esn's to a different phone and leave both on!
2. keep calling tech support until you get someone who isnt retarded.

the guy today helped me manually configure my epst settings over the phone and that did the trick for voice. now i just need a dmu reset (i guess) to get data back and then its back to the kitchen so i can f my **** again! lol... thanks again for everyone's help.
