How to upgrade an xv6800 with the new Sprint ROM

[cyclohexanol]

So after reading through many threads on upgrading the ROM, I did it using this one. I successfully got olipro-2.4.0 installed, then the Sprint ROM, then dcd 3.0.1.

The phone boots up just fine, and I'm dumped into WM6.1 welcome screen. A voicemail icon popped up, so I tried to call but I got the verizon recording saying that they are "unable to authenticate" my phone.

Does this mean I need to call and get a new A-key? Or did I miss a step? I re-entered the MDN and MSID, but still nothing.
Should I try *228 options 1 or 2?

Thanks!

EDIT: also, when I try to send a text to myself through vzw's website, it gives a "message undeliverable" message on the website.
EDIT2: so I tried *228 option 1 and now Verizon Wireless shows up as the carrier on the start screen, but still can't call out. Guess I'll call to get a new akey

UPDATE: called TS, fixed. I don't know what they did, but I didn't have to enter an A-key, just rebooted the phone and did *228 option 1 after they did some stuff on their side?

I did the same thing as you above, they told me they took it off the network and readded it? the first person I spoke to said I needed a new a-key, I said whats that? He said he needed to transfer me to data group.

Glad you got it working

Hey guys Im a noob and im having a bit of problems

Im stuck in the bootloader screen

TITA100 MFG
SPL-2.40 Olipro

My comp has windows vista premium so instead of activesync i have windows device center 6.1 I have unclicked allow USB connections
but i think my comp doesnt recognize that they the phone is connected at all

Please make sure that USB connection in Activesync is disabled

Also make sure that your USB cable is properly connected

The sprint rom crashes on my system when i try and use it. All it does is load the phone into bootloader and then it terminates. I tried to put it in bootloader and then start it but it will crash before it even gets a chance to start anything.

You may need to try it on another PC. Does it give any kind of error message when it crashes?

You might want to check the event viewer on your PC to see if any errors were entered into the log. Just type eventvwr at a command prompt.

If I was a giant idiot and flashed sprint and let it do the customization, is there a way to fix it?

Edit: Just found it. Sorry for the post

EDIT X2: Ok, so I followed the steps to repair above, and everything looked alright.

I then followed the steps at the beginning of this thread (made sure not to boot into the Sprint rom) and then flashed the most recent kitchen.

I still cannot *228. It's saying it's not a legit service number or something.

I followed the steps EXACTLY on the first post. Am I stil doing something wrong? Do I need to get a new A Key before I try flashing the latest kitchen (get the a-key, put it on the stock Verizon rom, and THEN flash?)

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Ok I did that from another pc. I took the pda back to my this pc and tried to flash the nu2 rom onto it. Now it wont get out of boot loader. Am I missing something here?

[rzande1]

Ok I managed to flash to nu2's 5058 pre fix. Here are my two questions. How can I put mms back on the phone and also now it says it cannot authenticate my phone so no text messages can be sent out or received along with calls cannot be sent out or received. What do I do now?
