Sorry I didn't answer the other question lol. PPCgeeks has been having server probs or something.

The only time the customization will run when you upgrade the radio. From what I've been told, the only way to get a radio is by a full flash so there won't be a standalone radio upgrade. Some custom roms may have User customization per carrier soon. I would let that run then :)

I just got my phone replaced due to the cracking issue. Flashed and didn't have to authenticate my phone! :)

I can't reconnect to the Verizon data network after following the above flashing instructions. I did the reauthentication thing and can make and receive calls on Verizon but cannot reconnect to the data (#777) network. My conversations with Verizon are getting a little "hairy" now. I've set the correct login information. Any suggestions?

Well it gets more interesting. I flashed the new sprint and then DCD's VZW 19588 rom. Didn;t work the first time so I just flashed again with the vzw rom without starting all over. Now, I tried to have verizon reauthenticate and didnt work from thier end. They had me dial ##778 to bring up the ppst app. When I tried to enter the unlock code, 000000, it came back with code incorrect. The tech said thats the only code they use, something is terribly wrong with the phone and they are sending a new one. I will have it tomorrow, Tuesday. Now, I am wondering if I should have staarted over from the very beginning, doing the sprint rom,etc. maybe that is the problem. The other problem I will have is I have to return this phone. So, I need to brick it. Anybody know how to do that so they can't tell I flashed the rom? thank for advice and listening.

Nice collection, also you can add this trick:

If you can't get your phone authenticated back onto the network, REMOVE the battery for a minute. Then start the phone back up and dial *22801

This can be done instead of calling for a new a-key.

I would also like to know if anyone was a preferred bricking method for returns or if ti is necessary at all to protect yourself.

Re: Upgrading Tutorial For Verizon XV6900!!! Radio 3.42.30 with working GPS
 

Actually when I first did it I accidentally let the Sprint customs run. I hear that I need to figure out how to tweak the radio fully toward Verizon without "bricking" the whole thing. Can you guide me?
