I just followed the instructions and I got the PRL uploaded for Page Plus. I can now make and receive calls and text messages. I tried to get the DATA working but haven't had any luck. I will have to probably wait until an HTC Trophy shows up at Verizon to try and mirror the settings. Trying to get them from the TP2 helped a lot but something is still missing. I can't find a setting where it allows you to dial a #777. Seems like that would be the ticket.

I think I'll be joining you buying an off contract Arrive and trying to copy the settings from the Verizon phone.

You must have had to use CDMA Workshop as well?

Yep, i used the CDMA Workshop for the Page Plus PRL upload. I couldn't find anywhere in the settings where to upload one from a storage card like Windows Mobile on my Touch Pro 2. I should spend some more time in the program seeing what it can do but I was just ecstatic to get the phone working for talk/text on the Verizon network and have left it at that.

Remember, there's probably a super slim chance you could get the phone activated with Verizon directly. I've gone into Verizon through the back door sort of:evil4:

Re: Sprint HTC Arrive manual data programming?

Hello,

I was wondering if there was a "tutorial" of some kind that would teach me how to use my Arrive on Verizon Wireless. I'm a WP7 developer and I got my phone from Microsoft before the HTC Trophy was released. I prefer the WP7 over my stupid iPhone. I found a link in this thread to a process someone took, but I do not understand the vocabulary used.

Thanks in advance.

Although getting the Arrive on Verizon Wireless directly seems like a next to nothing chance because the ESN isn't already in the system you could call in with an ESN and see if it would work. I've not known of too many instances where a Sprint phone was able to get on Verizon through standard procedures.

I got mine on Verizon's towers by going through the back door so to speak via Page Plus and doing a little manual programming of the settings. I haven't gotten the data part working yet only because I haven't made the time to do it. Plenty of Wi-Fi to make the phone buzz right along
