Once the radio is reflashed, it appears you need to enter an "akey" number. this is a 26 number generated by VzW that you enter into your phone to authenticate it. Call vzw (from a landline or 2nd phone) to ask for it. I had this issue---now I don't have it. It looks like you have to do this every time you change radios, but not reflashing ROMs in general.

mwfielder, i think you're misunderstanding him.

i have the same problem. i already got a different a-key from verizon, and I bet aaron did too. it just takes an extra long time to get back on the network but it does get back on.

thanks

But that was my issue. I could get back on the network, even activate my phone online and do the *228, option 1. All that would go through. But when I soft reset, bam..... searching for signal for about 20 min. Once I had signal, the phone worked fine.

I called up, got the akey, and now I haven't had that issue whatsoever. (This happened after I flashed a new radio.)

Oh, ok. I guess I misunderstood you! Sorry bout that. So I should call Verizon and get a another new a-key?

Thanks

Mwfielder / Sanderz,

I did call Verizon after I finished flashing all the required ROMs. I got a new A-Key, and they worked with me to perform a manual provisioning of the device. However this only allowed my to get a signal after I entered it and the phone signal still lags after a soft-reset. Like Sanderz said, it takes around 20 minutes for a signal. I feel your pain Sanderz. Any other suggestions.

I am sure you have tried soft resets but also try to remove the battery for about a minute I have read this some where else and has worked for me a couple of time with different roms.

Mad props to MwFielder, thanks bro!!! I called Verizon again and got them to give me a new A-key. That fixed the soft-rest phone signal issue!!! Thanks again!!! :)~

Sanderz Better call VZW back and get another key... It worked!!!!

if you are using gps constantly i suggest you use omj's v1 w/ updated gps drivers. I have spuratic lockups and its doesn't work like it used to. But the rumor mill has it that sometime this month the new sprint rom will be released.

I removed the battery, waited a minute, and then put it back in. And so far, it has fixed the problem!! When I soft reset, it immediately picks up the signal. We'll see if it keeps this up.


Thanks to Formula84 for the inspiration!
