I have a Sprint Mogul/Titan I bought off of ebay. I recieved it and manually programmed the NAM settings to be the same as my previous phone. It would not do OTH/OTA programming so I then downloaded an outdated Verizon PRL to activate the phone on Pageplus. All was fine other than the fact that it stayed on roaming but I didnt have a problem making or recieving calls or texts, etc. So lastnight I was online and went to the HTC.com website and downloaded the Windows Mobile 6.1 stock rom for the Sprint Mogul. The rom update utility worked fine. It did go back to a Sprint PRL tho. After I updated it this time with the same PRL I used at first it keeps telling me my mobile number is not active or invalid so this is where i am stuck. I cannot get it to work right now. I have done *228 option 1 and 2. Ive double checked the EPST settings and it all seems the same.Not sure what to do from here?

been a long time since i checked in on the Mogul..

so, you flashed the Sprint Stock Rom on a VZW Mogul?? sound like the issue is apparent..

no its a sprint mogul. i just did the stock sprint rom upgrade to wm6.1. now i am having this issue. as i said it worked fine when it was using the original rom (wm6.0 or whatever) and now it tell me the mobile number is not active or invalid.

I figured it out. after i updated the rom the phone company seen it as another phone trying to access the network. all i did to get it fixed was called and have them do an ESN switch to a dummy ESN and then switch again to my ESN and OTA programming worked and all is well.
