    ok now scur. for your prob,sound to me like you have your phone number in the field for imsi which is wrong,like whitey said your min goes there.also you might make sure your using the nam your writing to and not the other one. but i would recomend you change your plan to the other 55 dollar plan try the ota (prolly still wont work cuz triband area)so go outside that triband market if you can and then the ota will work use *228 or *22804 if you cant get outside your market,send it/take it to someone who can flash it for you.thats an expensive phone and easily messed up.
    Yeah, I've been trying to tread softly with this thing. I'm used to my Ascend, which is basically unbrickable. I've actually tried to brick it. I'm already on the $55 plan from my Ascend, so no issue there. But as of now, I've stopped doing anything to it. I'm considering just using Verizon. The thing is, I'm not sure if I've messed it up to the point where Verizon won't work on it. I'm guessing I'd have to change some stuff to get it to work, but I'm not sure what direction I'm going to go yet. I didn't know the whole triband thing was an issue when I got this phone. I thought everything would be on the up and up, that I could flash it over, pay my Cricket bill, and just go about my business. But I don't think I really want to 'sneak' around the air waves. Since it's a clean ESN, and it's still new, undamaged, unscratched, with a nice new Defender Otterbox, wall charger, and car charger, I'm thinking about getting everything straight on it and selling it, and grabbing the Bionic with a contract, although I COULD keep this X2 and go through Verizon monthly with no contract. That sounds good too. But like I said, I haven't made up my mind yet. Thanks for the info, though.
