Alright, so I know this probably isn't allowed but I'll explain what I'm trying to do.
I recently bought an HTC Imagio off one of my friends to use.
My current service provider (Revol Wireless) uses Houdinisoft to flash phones to work with them.
So, the first time I brought the phone in to be flashed over, they couldn't get it connected. So, I went home and researched a bit, and realized I had to dial ##3424 (Send) to put it into DM mode, so after this, I tried again.
This time they were able to connect, but they STILL weren't able to successfully flash for some reason.
SO, after doing some more research, I tried everything I could, I made sure to put it in CDMA only mode, I even unlocked with the HSPL. And after another time, and going to a different location, they weren't able to get it.
So, I went home and looked up on how to flash it myself, and I used CDMA workshop to update the PRL for my service prover, and changed the MMS settings, etc.
And, it says Revol over the air programming when I dial *228, so everything is working.
But, I would still need Revol to put my ESN into their list, which apparently after trying again they can't do.
I guess the Houdinisoft program they use also grabs the ESN and uploads it.
Which, they can't get to work with my phone.
So, after all of this, I'm hoping I could just switch the ESN off of my current phone with them and I'll just never use my old phone again.
I realize this is illegal, I'm aware of all the consequences.
But I was hoping someone could PM me or direct me to something to help me.
Oh, and I would rather not have to buy a box to flash it
And if you know of some way to go about doing this without changing to ESN, that would be appreciated too!
