Iphone prl to cricket, but not prgramming?

[rich hathaway]

ooppss,ya know i loaded that qiuckly and moved on,i shoulda looked it over. it was all green.dont know what happened between the upload and the post. sorry. but i ment you know what you gotta do,that part i got right lol. if yer ota isnt working right or connecting to cricket then move to a full signal area. even in the green there will be "dead zones"

your sid is still verizon .prolly 2004 ,so the phones are stubborn sometimes to connect to cricket because of this.so watch the signal bar when ota"ing and after you hang up notice it will drop signal down to a single bar,thats where you have your "window" to connect to cricket,so redial the ota quickly after that.

i have had to dial it over a dozen times to get a successfull ota on stubborn handsets. so dont try once or twice and give up.

if your sure you got the correct prl in the phone then use the *22804 or the *228 which ever one says "welcome to cricket",and make sure your esn is correct on your acct. first.
let us know how you get along.

So that i understand you correctly rich. And what i read about the AWS market does this mean that if u live in chicago there is no way to flash a verizon iphone to work with cricket period?

[rich hathaway]

no,it will work there,but it will roam.i am not sure about the ota,and if it will work for you or not.you may hve to travel outside yer aws area to get the ota to work.
