need noob instuctions for switching to Rev A

[bajtarcc]

I just updated my phone and I keep getting just 1x for my data speed. So I started looking around in the forums to see what my problem was and I know know that I have to go into my setting and enable it. I am a noob so I am wondering if somone can tell me step by step what to do and include any files if I need them. Thanks so much for help. In know that you are talking about this all over the forums but nobody has done a complete guide yet. Thanks.

dail ##778#
you will come to screen to put in your MSL number.
After that you have 3 options, choose Edit
Now you have a screen with Display at top, now at bottom you should see View info, click, in the list you should see Data Parameters about 1/3 down list choose this. Now you should see REV A second on list is it disable or enable, if disable use bottom at right to change, now it will reboot

Had same problem as op, this is a confirmed fix for me right after official rom update. Repped!

Edit: For some reason on my speed test, i got 750kbps down as my first test, and then 245kbps from then on. wtf?!

so much for the confirmed fix there huh? ya there's been talk about this being an HTC or Sprint bug...maybe the setting is backwards. most people that have "enabled" the RevA setting have gotten slower speeds; holds true for me also. its actually enabled by default, so you shouldnt have to do anything to it.

Thanks a million. I boosted your rep for you. It wlrked great, it still says 1x but I thinks its because I m in a bad area. It does say that the Rev A is enabled. The only thing to I had to figure out was that the program to get the unlock code is case sensitive but once i figured that out it was great. Thanks.

I enabled it yesterday and after a couple of hours my windows live went crazy... i kept getting errors about Windows live can not sign in and the sign in screen did not want to go away and I soft reset the phoen and ket getting the same issue and my phone kept starting up in safe mode(SPB Pocket Plus) wtf is that all about?!!? I kept getting exe. errors... then I had to hard reset... now its fine I THINK...
