Ok so here are the directions I am following to flash my v3m to cricket but i get stuck at step 6 because the file doesn't exist anymore. My question is: is there a better set of directions to follow or a work around for my problem? thanks
Ok I just want to make sure I get the steps right. This was copied and modified from GHInvestors excellent set of instructions.
Step 1: Download the Generic/Stock v3m MONSTER firmware from http://rapiRABhare.com/files/9667252...TER_01.rar.html
Step 2: Use PST_7.2.5_GENERAL
Step 3: Goto Windows Explorer or My Computer and goto C:\Program Files\Motorola\PST. Open up the program MultiFlashFlex.exe. Click Browse Under Flash Setup and direct it to the Generic/Stock v3m MONSTER firmware you downloaded in Step 1. If and ONLY if it says "Motorola v3m" and "Connected...", then click Start. If it does not say "Connected...", then USE THE SEARCH button on this forum and find out why. Search for Motorola Drivers or something like that.
WARNING: This will FLASH your phone! Make sure your battery is fully charged. This could damage your phone if you have a power outage, the cell phone battery dies, you try opening Phone Programmer or many other things. You have been warned!
Let that finish. It will take about 10 minutes and you will know it is done when it says "Motorola v3m" and "Connected...". Don't worry if you see "Invalid ESN". That is normal.
Step 4:Turn on your phone. Once it is completely turned on, press #073887* Then put in your code, most likely 000000.
Step 5: Goto User Activation. Goto NAM 1. Under MIN, put your 10 digit phone nuraber. Under MDN, put your 10 digit phone nuraber. Press Done. Press Back. Press Exit. Let the phone do it's "automatic reset".
Step 6: Goto this url and download Razr.rar. Extract the 6 files into one folder.
Step 7: Power your phone off and on. Once your phone is back on, open up Phone Programmer, located at "C:\Program Files\Motorola\PST\UT_NVM.exe".
Step 8: Goto File>Open>MobileIP. Then direct it to the folder you extracted Razr.rar to. Open up the .mip file. When you open it, change the %M to your 10 digit phone nuraber. So instead of "%[email protected]", it will be "[email protected]" (or whatever your phone nuraber is). Make sure it "Single IP only" is chosen up top. Up top choose, Phone>Write. Click Yes at the next two boxes that pop up.
Step 9: Click File>Open>CDMA PRL. Direct it to the .rla file that you extracted earlier. Click Phone>Write.
Step 10: Follow Step 9, this time with the .brw (BREW) file, the .mms (MSS) file, the .rtb (RTT - 1xBrowser) file, and the .rtd (RTT - 1xData) file.
Step 11: Restart your phone. SKIP THIS PART? (Dial *228. Let your phone Activate.)
Step 12: Manually add in the voicemail nuraber. Just hold the 1 key, and it will prompt you to store a voicemail nuraber, which is your phone nuraber.
Are there any steps I'm missing? Is there anything I should backup from my current Alltel on Cricket install? Are the codes for Step 4 the same?
If anyone has tried this on a V3m how are the video and mp3 players as compared to Alltel's?
