    Default Re: I think I'm screwed...Verizon iPhone flash to Cricket in NY

    I have the same problem, nearly. I took my Verizon iPhone 4. I bought it in january without a contract and have been using it with verizon. I recently cancelled and am trying to change over to Cricket. I flashed the phone, it shows cricket under "network" and also says the carrier is "cricket 11.3" PRL "35713" ERI "6". It connects to the network but my meid is not authorized to use the network. There are no dealers or corporate stores except for a few states over.I live in California and the nearest is in Texas. I tried to activate it by calling cricket but they say that the meid is "ineligible" for service in my area. I believe it has something to do with it being an iPhone and cricket's recent acquisition of iPhone's of their own. I have been looking all over the web for a way to change or at least spoof my MEID so i can activate this phone. I bought a cricket pay as you go phone and I want to copy it's MEID onto the iPhone.

    careful brother,read the rules please.this subject is forbidden to discuss in open forum.it is allowed in the premium and private sections only. sounds like you only have "partner coverage" there,which would be sprint,and if that is true they would probly term you after a short while.but i would suggest to go to mycricket.com and check coverage before you spend a bunch of effort on something that might be short term.

    Rich what is a full DFU restore i put the phone in DFU mode and restored the phone back with a ispw and still retains the cricket settings. How can I restore it back to Verizon like as if i just took it out of the box? I jacked up the flash....
