On this LG model, you can't read the SPC with the registered CDMA Workshop version the traditional way, LG Method. It seems like companies are making it more challenging to flash phones, even for a simple procedure as finding SPC. Thanks to everyone here and other forums who are committed to finding and sharing solutions, whether for a fee or not, nothing is impossible. You know who you are. Cricket would not be where it is now and where it will be in the future without flashing.
Back to the phone..
This phone has a fancy mirror on the cover. It's the same price as the VX5500, $25 out the door including tax at WalMart. I like it better than the VX5500. Nice color and fancy design inside and out.
