Bricked my TP!

I installed Verizon radio on it (1.03.03v) and now I can't make phone calls or browse data or anything. Every time I try to dial any number it gives me the message "Welcome to Verizon wireless..your phone could not be authenticated."

I tried flashing all kinds of roms to it, but same error; if I flash the stock Sprint one back to it, will that restore the radio software?

Re: Bricked my TP!

What carrier are you using right now?

If you ask me, I say you have nothing to lose by trying to flash stock.

STOP SAYING BRICKED.

When your phone doesnt turn on, when you cannot mtty it, when you cannot get into boot loader mode, when you canot see any flashing lights, when your phone does not charge, When your phone does ALL OF THE ABOVE,

then it is bricked, meaning it is similar to a block of cement that can be more useful thrown through a window.

This term is thrown around far too much, and its annoying.

update: i don't know what i did or what happened...i spent 2 hours on the phone w/ Sprint and they are sending me a new one.

Here's the kicker though..30 mins after I got off the phone with them, it started working on its own.
