I ordered the data cable and it should be coming this week (or next). I have been trying to gain as much knowledge before attempting the flash. I have to admit that I am confused. Is it really as "simple" as post #19? If so, what is the point of doing anything with an SCR file or a DLL file? (Forgive me, but I'm a newbie. I have searched google and other threads but can't find what I need.) What is the LG Downloader program (and do I need it)? What is the DLL file used for? What is the SCR file used for?

According to what I've found on the web, this is what I plan to do:

-change the SPC to all zeros
-install the Page Plus PRL (Preferred Roaming List) file. (I have one I found, but does anyone have one they know to work well?)
-modify the MDN, MIN, and SID

Do I have to use CDMA WS to do this? Can I use BitPim or LG Downloader instead?

I'd be very grateful for any help I can get. Thank you.

You can use CDMA WS to do that in a couple minutes and you will only have talk and text working no internet or mms....

one step though, you will need to install the lg drivers or else CDMA WS wont recognize the phone as being connected.

Now if you want to track down some of the big dawgs around here, they might have the PPC Flash for the Rumor to give/sell to you and then you will need CDMA WS and LG Downloader, to first unlock, then then install all the new files, like the .dll .bin. scr. and eri files to get the internet to work on the phone as well and give you a custom PPC flash for the Rumor. Check out the cricket forum here or over at howard forums and read thru Amoamare's (its late i know i probably spelled that wrong) cricket lg 260 tutorial, will give you the idea on what all is needed to do, when you get the PPC files if you want the full flash.

Thank you for your reply, markymark. Apparently the demo version of CDMA WS doesn't allow uploading of PRL files. Googling gives me "full versions" that are just trojans. Does anyone know how I can put the PRL file on the phone without having to flash the phone? I changed the settings MIN, MDN, and SID, so the PRL file is the only thing left. I tried LGNPST and installed the generic DLLs but could not get any DLL files to show up in the list. I don't know if it's because I'm on Vista. I tried BitPim, but it said the filesystem is locked.

There is a 2.7 cracked version of CDMA WS here in the forums, although it will throw up a trojan with most AV's it is harmless I used it since it was cracked.
Also have you tried QPST to load the PRL.

Whitey, thanks for the info about CDMA WS. I am still hesitant about using software that's reported as a trojan. I have not tried QPST. Do I need a special DLL for that? Does anyone know if the LG260 can be recognized by LGNPST? If so, how?

Does anyone know where to find said firmware for the 260 besides MOFI? Its not letting anyone download it without special permissions. Ive searched all over for it and cant seem to locate it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
