ah, I see. I must have misread or misinterpreted. My bad.

So I flashed the New USCC rom and my PRI stays at 1.63._027

Same thing for me. Radio version changed but PRI version still says 1.63_027.

you'll just have to install the pri manually like i described on first page.

Ok I'm gonna add 2 cents only because of how much I know about PRI's from recoding the VZW PRI for the Touch Pro to unlock the gps.

The best way to get the pri and radio is to just simply flash the rom. NOT the extacted file. You need to run it from the packaged executable or you will not get the PRI, just the radio and rom.

I recently updated my PRI on the VZW TP2 via the method razor defined. Now that is the normal practice so I'm not saying I disagree one bit with him but ppst.exe doesnt seem to act right in WM6.5. I ended up with a device that would not authenticate even after relocking and installing the entire update. I was forced to deal with VZW's dreaded customer service.

I pray the normal method works for you guys. Maybe my issues are because Verizon always adds extra junk to screw up what are normally perfectly good devices.

As I said, just my 2 cents. Want everyone aware of what can potentially happen if the PRI doesnt load properly via ppst.exe

I agree hopefully for everyone else using the executable that they download works.

Unfortunately, for me I did use the executable but only the new radio flashed. I had to take the cab out and install as Razor layed out.

I flashed it back to stock using the exe file, and did the #228 so this is my results.

PRL:15095
PRI: 2.43_027

I saw others talk of a 15096, not sure why mine says 15095, but doesn't matter to me.
