Pretty much load it like ya did when you flashed it.>

OK.. but I cant find them, still looking.....

Save them to the desk top or rember where you save them to.

<I didn't mention this in my PM but your BB is a dual band CMDA and won't work in all cricket markets (AWS) so be advised that in places like most of FL you will be roaming on another network and will need either money in ur flexbucket or a plan that includes roaming.>

My plan includes roaming.

Good then with the new PRL loaded you shouldn't have any issues.

<You can also load one of these http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/attachment...1&d=1257307095 through QPST while in a native cricket area. Don't do the OTASP it will overwrite them with a local PRL. >

Ok.. I loaded it but whats it for?...Do you mean my home area when you say native?..Is otasp dialing *228?

Yes your home area would be the native cricket coverage and yes OTASP is *228 OTASP= over the air service programing.

<Keep in mind that cricKets extended coverage is not cricket native coverage and features like WAP/MMS and *228 OTASP will not work because you will be roaming on another network. You also will need PEC on the account.>

Not sure I understand ..Whats PEC?....Thanks in advance...I will donate something..

PEC = Premium Extended Coverage. It's like roaming but should not incur roaming charges. That is if the roaming partner in FL is providing CDMA coverage. If it's a AWS partner coverage then you will incur CDMA roaming charges.

Definitions
CDMA= Code Devision Multiple Access
AWS= Advanced Wireless Services
OTASP= Over the Air Service Programing
PEC= Premium Extended Coverage
WAP=Wireless Application Protocol
MMS= Multy Media Messaging
