1050 is NOT a Cricket approved PRL. If you are having issues, please try a released cricket PRL like 1040, 5044, 1012, 32688 or something that is cricket sponsored.
Wow...I have been trying to get my diamond to OTA for month's now with 1050. I manually changed it to 1040 and it worked. I looked at the settings and now I got 1013 in arkansas.
I have tried the 1050 prl in the past with no success either. I thought it was the EVDO prl. I just use the 1040 prl then do a *228 and in these parts it usually updates to the 1013
Nothing is set in stone, here or any carrier. Your results may vary. What we have posted is a general guide and what we know from past experience. Change is always happening.
I just took my Sprint Diamond (out of the box) to Cricket yesterday, with a flashed 1050 prl, to have it activated. OTA wouldn't work. I retrieved the prl here.. http://corolada.com/prl/. Cricket didn't mention anything about the prl. I'm also in the PHOENIX area. The .prl I used on my Motorola ROKR prior to my Diamond phone upgrade was 1007.
To be honest, this is my first flash...I thought, read, follow directions, read some more and it would all be pretty easy..ACK!
I had no problem flashing updated ROMS to it. I am now searching the forums for the CORRECT, up to date way to include MMS/SMS and proper internet settings for Cricket on a Sprint Diamond with Mighty ROM's 4.2. I have text messaging and a super slow Opera working at the moment. (If you can point me, I'd appreciate it).
