verizon xv6900 flash qestions

[Guzi]

Just found this forum 2 days ago. Read and reread posts and decided to give OMJ.3.09.01 a try. I have a xv6900 that I purchased 2 days ago. To update phone I went through the following steps:

1)unlocked w / ImCokeMans’s v2.31 unlocker
2)flashed with Bell 3.09.01 and allowed to customize
3)flashed with OMJ.3.09.01.Custom.exe

Phone now boots and all applications appear to be there.

Here is my problem. The phone needed authenticated so called Verizon and they re-authenticated. They instructed me to then call *228 and choose option #2. My phone will dial out but neither option 1 nor option 2 will work. From talking to tech support I may be fine without doing either. However I cannot get out on the internet (have data plan). I called tech support again and tried to play stupid (not hard for me to do) and they pointed me to Settings / Connections / and proceeded to describe how to set up a new modem connection. I now have two choices CDMA and My work Network. They assumed I only had one. I listened to their instructions and then set up both modem connections, but cannot get out on the internet.

The number that they gave me was #777
User name is my phone number@vzw3g.com
and PSWD = VZW

Three calls now to tech support and I could feel their radar coming on the last time I called.

Any help with the *228 or internet issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

did you install the verizon carrier cab?

taken directly from omj's page: I recommend Flashing the Official Bell rom .exe to upgrade your radio to 3.42.50 (skip post-flash Customization if you're non-Bell)(If you are a Bell user, let the Customization run


if you are not bell user skip the customization's install dcd carrier cab also provided by omj http://dcd1182.n715dp.com/index.php?dir=carriers%2F

I flashed using whosdaman's VerizonManillaClean 1.16 and have the same exact problem. I tried the cab and it still did not work. Can anyone make any further recommendations?

I flashed mine when I first got it and same problem, after several day's with Verizon they sent me a new phone. I would really like to hack this one but am afraid the same thing will happen. If anyone has a surefire way of upgrading a Verizon xv6900 please share.

Thanks

In the registry there's a box that says "require password", you need to change the 1 to a 0.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>>Comm>>ConnMgr>>Providers>>(Let ters/Numbers)>>Connections>>Data Network Connect

Change RequirePw from 1 to 0. I also change my AlwaysOn from 0 to 1, but that's personal preference.

The l/p format you have there is correct, but I don't believe in use anymore. After you flash be sure to do reset before it runs customization, install the carrier cab, and do a hard reset. This should get you going. Or you can use the ppcgeeks kitchen.
