Step by Step tutorial for unlocking your device and cooking your own ROM!!!

[motheus]

Thanks for your reply, quadjacks. I guess I wasn't clear on the exact order of steps between unlocking the phone w/ olipro and flashing the radio ROM via sd card. From where I was in my first post, I soft-reset (by accident) and got back to my starting point. I then started olipro again and went thru w/ no prob. I think I put the sd card in b4 olipro was finished unlocking...

the preceding new issue, enumerated above, still stands, tho'...

Okay, so I worked thru the initial issue. It appears I've flashed the 3.42.40 radio and nueROM-M 201 (keeping it basic, I know). But, as one might guess, I've run into another snag - one I haven't seen repeated yet in this thread or elsewhere: After my call w/ vzw tech supp, I have ingoing/outgoing calls but no internet connection. ...At this point vzw's tech supp appears to be out of ideas...can anyone help me out (or point me in the right direction to help myself)?? Thanks!

In my experience, you must keep calling to get a more knowledgable tech. Sounds stupid however, i always had that issue. One thing i would suggest is to have them strip the device from there servers and re-add it. that seems to be the fix everytime for me, but it sometimes takes me several calls to achieve this result. Hope this helps!!!
