    rich,

    i didn't use DFS, i have my own. if you read my pm, you know what i am talking about

    anyway, let me try to ask the question a different way:

    1. when you flash a verizon iphone 4 to cricket, at what point the phone says "phone is activated"? is it after the *228 OTA? when i flash sprint to page plus, i see the Carrier name/logo, and the pop up "phone is activated" after OTA. does it means OTA is needed in order to "activate" the phone?

    2. are there such areas that there is cricket coverage (maybe roaming), but cannot OTA? if so, how can i tell? my zip is 13760. i can ##nam to enter the MDN MIN, and talk and text afterward. but can never *228, or *22804

    3. is it possible to get the "phone is activated" message without OTA? for example, jail break, commcenter patch, PRL, carrier bundle, ##NAM. after all these, should the phone say "phone is activated"? or still need to *228 to complete the "activation" process?

    sorry i know that is many qusetino at once. please give me some ideas.

    thanks!

    you dont need ota to get authentic activtion,and by that i do not mean "hactivation"

    the tool activates the phone automatic.

    cricket will not ota in many areas for a bunch of diff reasons. however the ota is being blocked by cricket\apple for the ip's per contract w/apple so ota really is out unless you change your meid.
    but i dont know about how you flashed but you should be able to get data (full 3g) after flashed with cricket if you are capable of writing user and pass's with the good prl and sid. and like i said the carrier logos are tricky for the ip.there is several reasons why it would not show up.
    really i could write a novel about carrier logos and do's and dont's

    the carrier logo doesn't bug me, what i really want to do is the "authentic activation".

    you mentioned "the tool activates the phone automatic." can you be more specific? what tool are you talking about? the one you are releasing? is there any method available for just the authentic activation?
    thanks

    yes the "iphonecdmatool" will activate,the only other other tool that i know of that will without the hactivation,which leads to the dreaded battery consumption issue, is itunes or for the stores that sell the iphones we have a tool from apple that will activate iphones so that we may evaluate and get into the phones and activate for the customer when we sell them.
