    I'd be willing to part with my Q9m (with lime green housing) as soon as my Nap can be activated, hopefully very soon. You'll probably find one on eBay before then, but just throwing that out there

    Dialing *228 to update roaming capabilities...

    Dialing *228 and updating your roaming capabilities will not alter any of the programing correct? I do not want to reflash everything again. I do want most current tower locations, but don't want verizon to program my phone obviously.
    Thanks

    I don't think that would affect it at all. Supposedly it's only updating your roaming capabilities. I've updated and had no problems.

    Just had the txt messages app freeze up on me and had to pull the battery. This is the second time it's happened. The first time was while receiving a message and this time was while sending. Anyone else had this happen?

    Ok, posted this somewhere else with no luck or help.

    I flashed to the generic/uscc setup, and when I run any gps software my phone sits there for a few seconds then restarts. I've tried reflashing everything again, still does it. Yes the data is working, since that was the only question I was asked the last time I asked for help.

    This is probably a dumb question as I haven't looked into this flash very much, but will it enable GPS use on US Cellular?

    Nope. See the GPS thread. It's not just for Verizon anymore.

    This is just the first steps. There is more to be done. When it's finally all figured out, it should work with USCC, too.

    Has anyone done this with a Vista 32bit pc? Any specific issues?

    Also, does anyone know if anything weird will happen with MMS since my phone and service are originally alltel which has been recently changed to verizon in my area?
