OK, I have been scouring forums and Google for 2 days to get some good info on flashing the 9550 with little luck. The tut written on cdmagurus is for the 9530. I have CDMA Workshop 2.7 but it doesnt want to work with my phone. I have QPST and QXDM, QPST recognizes the device and following the tut on [Only registered and activated users can see links] I tried doing step 2, wrote that information to the phone using QPST, but Step 1 is confusing as it says "Your phone should be partially flashed at this point (talk and text)" WTF does that mean... I know how to load the MetroPCS service books but reverts back to Verizon as I am not flashing the phone correctly. I have pretty much every CDMA tool available, just not sure how to use them all with the 9550.
I also did:
- Open QXDM 2.08.05 (ensure VIEW is set to COMMAND OUTPUT)
* Go to Options
* Communications...
* Select and try One of the Rim Virtual Serial Port V2 (COM #) Step 3
*** Note: If it's connected to the right COM Port, you'll see a bunch of letters, numbers on the QXDM Screen.
- If you you have your Blackberry SPC already, do the following steps:
Don't forget to use " "
a) mode offline-d
Turns radio off and sets to service mode. Check phone radio is off.
spc "******"
Replace asterisk with the 6 digit code. Output should read successful.
c) pr_list_wr 0 "C:\The name of your prl.prl"
If needed change file path to location of PRL. Output should read successful.
d) nv_write sec_code {"000000"}
Optional: use this command to change code to zeros or another 6 digits.
e) nv_write nam_lock 0 0
Removes the NAM lock
f) mode reset
Reboots phone to reset mode.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Don't know how to edit these, I can get to the NAM settings but what do I put here?
Step 5.
Press ##Your SPC + Send and edit your NAM settings.
Maybe someone can point me in the right direction
