    Angry BB Storm 9550/MetroPCS Flashing Help

    OK, I have been scouring forums and Google for 2 days to get some good info on flashing the 9550 with little luck. The tut written on cdmagurus is for the 9530. I have CDMA Workshop 2.7 but it doesnt want to work with my phone. I have QPST and QXDM, QPST recognizes the device and following the tut on [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], I tried doing step 2, wrote that information to the phone using QPST, but Step 1 is confusing as it says "Your phone should be partially flashed at this point (talk and text)" WTF does that mean... I know how to load the MetroPCS service books but reverts back to Verizon as I am not flashing the phone correctly. I have pretty much every CDMA tool available, just not sure how to use them all with the 9550.
    I also did:
    - Open QXDM 2.08.05 (ensure VIEW is set to COMMAND OUTPUT)
    * Go to Options
    * Communications...
    * Select and try One of the Rim Virtual Serial Port V2 (COM #) Step 3
    *** Note: If it's connected to the right COM Port, you'll see a bunch of letters, numbers on the QXDM Screen.
    - If you you have your Blackberry SPC already, do the following steps:
    Don't forget to use " "

    a) mode offline-d
    Turns radio off and sets to service mode. Check phone radio is off.

    spc "******"
    Replace asterisk with the 6 digit code. Output should read successful.

    c) pr_list_wr 0 "C:\The name of your prl.prl"
    If needed change file path to location of PRL. Output should read successful.

    d) nv_write sec_code {"000000"}
    Optional: use this command to change code to zeros or another 6 digits.

    e) nv_write nam_lock 0 0
    Removes the NAM lock

    f) mode reset
    Reboots phone to reset mode.
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    Don't know how to edit these, I can get to the NAM settings but what do I put here?
    Step 5.
    Press ##Your SPC + Send and edit your NAM settings.

    Maybe someone can point me in the right direction

    Got the PRL file to load, just an FYI, using QPST to load the PRL is freakin a piece of cake vs using QXDM. *611 goes to metro now, just need someone to add my ESN to metro inventory and I think I'm good. Anyone know of someone that will do it fast with a fair price?
