A900 on Cricket

Alright well I've been reading up on the whole PRL Flash and the more I read the more I become confused because there aren't any definitive answers. I purchased an A900 Blade by Sprint and wanted to flash this to Cricket, I see a bunch of sales on eBay with the description of flashed phones and you can send your phone in and they will flash it for you. Now from what I understand you need to load the PRL file onto the phone, I have the 1039.prl file already and thats where I get stuck... Where do I start and what would be the process of loading the PRL file and changing the phones settings to Cricket? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

well you need a phone programing suit like Qpst and a data cable(for that phone) and then you can flash it sorry for not being much help but that should get you started
 
For the MSL for the Sprint A900 I just use UniCDMA, no installation is required and I can change the code from what it was to 000000. Putting that aside... can anybody perhaps give me a step by step instruction on how to install the UNIPST software? I keep getting that hardlock not found message and it wants me to throw my computer out the window...
 
use cdma workshop connect then choose security tab then password box choose sky s130 from drop down box and send password,
spc will appear then send it,write 000000 and write prl and ur done.

Cheers, don't forget to say thanks. :clapping:
 
well i have too...... kinda...... without any help i got MMS to work and WAP..... but i cannot get both to work at the same time

i also got MMS to work on the Upstage but i still havent figured out WAP because it is a lil more tricky than the A900s
 
Just get UniPST with the a900.dll, the drivers from samsung's site, and the datacable that should have came with the phone. If you need the SPC, use cdma workshop or mslreader_3331.exe Both will read it.
 
:doh: I find myself hitting a brick wall. So far from what I have learned in order to dot he PRL Flash I need to put the A900 in emergency mode (while the power is off press 9 + end keys) and that I need to upload the PRL File. Where I'm hitting the brick wall is that I'm trying to download QPST or the Universal Unlocker. The Samsung unlocker doesn't have the A-900 in it, BitPim doesn't support it and with the regular universal version I have the .dll file but it requires some type of additional setting otherwise it will result in the program not running. Is there a way a person can give me a short guide on the topic with possibly a valid download of the software that I need? I've been searching and trying to get this done since my last post and as you can see I've been outdone by the lack of information on performing a flash on this model. :help:

Hello,

I am in a similar boat, I have an a900 that was from Sprint. I have it activated on Verizon with SMS working but am trying to get WAP and picture text messaging working with no luck. Firmware wants to use the "Power Vision"...

I changed my NAI username under the menu ##3282#

No such luck though.

How did you get the WAP working and have you had any luck getting the picture text messaging to work?

Thanks
 
if you have the full version and it will work with an imac please email me at [email protected]
