What now? No 1x ...

[k0r]

Okay well I flashed & rooted my motorola droid to MetroPCS. I also have my ESN# added to the inventory. When I call 288 or 611 I get the metropcs thing and I got the "lastest prl" ... But what do I do now? I still don't have this 1x that i'm suppose to have.. I can't make calls, texts, anything. I have no clue how to program this phone my self so hopefully someone here can help me, all I know is that I can dial ##PROGRAM to get to the menu that's all. Please help me, thank you. and i forgot to add that im using the smoked glass ROM

Omg...You flashed and rooted your droid and can't do any calls what-so-ever? Ok...Troubleshooting steps.
1a) Make sure your account is paid up.
1b) Dial *228 and type what happens (Does the programming complete or does it say something like "Could not program your phone")
2) Find the MEID from the phone's software menus, not the back of the phone. Sometimes the MEID will be different...it shouldn't be but it could be.
3) Once you know your MEID, call up MetroPCS and verify with them that the MEID on your phone is the same that's on your account.
4) If in 1b the phone does complete programming, check the PRL section of the Phone info and verify that the prl is actually there. Sometimes some phones don't like the PRL pushed to it.

There's some help respond back with the answer to 1b if you would after you've checked the other things

well when i type *288 the metropcs thing comes up and asks me what I want to do: Activate or Reactivate a phone, Add a new line, Update roaming list (the prls)

I already did the last one, and when I try to "activate or reactivate" a phone it says I can't because it's already activated or something..

but when I do the prl/roaming list thing i see that it says "phone being programmed" on the screen, once its finished it says phone activated and I checked the settings and the prl was there (2004)

but even after that I still can't do anything. and if I reboot the phone it will show the activation waiting screen again

i've literally tried EVERYTHING. I even did that that thing with the pppd-ril.options cuz someone said that would give me the 1x but still dont have it. I'm not even sure if I did that right, I erased the line "user [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] pass" and just put [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
