My Next Cricket Hijack

Going to go pick up an LG enV today. Found one brand spankin' new for $250 from a local retailer. Turns out a customer had it delivered to them from Verizon but brought it back to the store & hadn't even opened the box! (They wanted the Chocolate instead.)

Tonight I'll be the proud new daddy of an enV. And now that we've got Cricket's MMS service cracked, I can't wait to see if I can get this bad boy online!
 
Sweet sweet! I'm trying to convince my sister to buy that LG 8600. I think it looks like a great phone.. Similar to the KRZR, in size and function, but without motorola's below average reliability.
 
got my enV Saturday for like $8 (long story....maybe another time..... :D ). Got SMS and roaming voice to work THAT NIGHT. Couldn't find a data cable Sunday. Got into it using BLUETOOTH today. Uploaded music via BitPim. Loaded the PRL file using LG Upload and nothing worked--phone was stuck in roaming mode and would not *228xx. Chatted with the healthman and fixed the problem with my SID.

Bingo!

My enV was able to do OTASP and get the latest PRL, which for some reason is like version 07931. :befuddled *shrugs*

I'm almost certain, however, that uploading the PRL first is not necessary. I think with the correct settings the phone will OTASP just fine. Getting into the phone's deep menus is pretty much a chinch.

Anyway, going to get WAP working shortly...I'm having no luck so changing those settings via BlueTooth using LG Download/QPST, so I may have to bite it and get the data cable.
