WOW the first time ive even thought about one for the Omnia. Not mine but yours. I would suggest a hard reset which in theory should revert it back to the state that you got it in after you had it flashed to cricket.
Thats the iffy, though i have sold a Q1 that was later flashed to cricket I never had any experience with the phone post cricket aside from a few "what's up!" phonecalls here and there out of courtesy.
Anybody had to do a hard reset after flashing to cricket?
Did the cricket-ness stay?

I did just find this

I have done some searching on the net and I might have to replace the screen but I read a couple of places that a hard reset might work. So of coarse I'm wanting to try the hard reset before I put the money into the phone to replace the screen. So my question is can I do a hard reset on this phone and it stay flashed for cricket or will I have to have it flashed again?
Thanks!

Once flashed always flashed until you reflash it. So go ahead and Hard reset. the rom will not be touched."

which is the response to this thread here,

its a different phone but i believe this would be the same as for the omnia

now to hard reset there are three ways,
this is a direct quote from my potna melp57 (who knows more than me)

"If you encounter some problems & after several attempts still no improvement, try Hard Reset to return to latest flash FW setting. Back up your stuff first before the Hard Reset if you choose to format your Storage.

Option 1

Software Hard Reset:

On your Omnia, go to Settings/System/Hard Reset

Hard Reset options will appear on the screen for

a.Main Memory - Reset
b.My Storage - Reset
c.Storage Card - Format

A pop up will ask for confirmation & user is to enter "XXXX" to proceed.
i900 to use 1234
i910 to use last 4 digits of your mobile number
The phone resets, lingers on the samsung logo for a bit then the familiar Windows mobile device start up screen, which takes you through the start up process if you tap the screen to set up...
You may have seen this when booting up your phone initially
Alignment
Set date/time
Password

Option 2

Hard Reset using the hard keys:

1.Press soft reset hole beside the power button.
2.Press Call and Cancel Button together when you see the Samsung Omnia on the screen.
3.Reset Screen appear with "Are you sure you want to format? Format or Cancel".
This hard reset does not erase the 8/16GB memory. To reset everything, use
the software hard reset > Settings/System/Hard Reset.
There is also option to format the storage card.

A trick to use for Option 2 - by asctony

1. place omnia on a flat surface
2. use 2 fingers to press and hold on the CALL and END CALL buttons
3. use stylus to soft reset phone

Option 3

Hard Reset by dialing code:

Use your Omnia dialing pad & key in

*2767*3855# - doing this will hard reset without warning, it will also erase your 8GB/16GB internal memory"

or you could prolly just undo what you did

Enable dialer skin

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Pho​ne\Skin]
"Enabled"=dword:1

[mike250rs]

the flash itself should stay.. however, all the data & MMS settings (hacks) will need to be redone. Best option is to do a sprite backup after a complete setup. Then if/when a master reset is needed all your funky cricket settings will be a click away.

are you serious!?!?

i know you didnt create 3 threads in other forums directing members here (with a link that doesnt work)

you should know better than that
your other threads have been deleted

[blackmeto]

lol sorry hockey i didnt know the links didnt work and i prolly didnt need all of those threads but it sounded like an emergency so i jumped into action because i missed 6 of his pms yesterday when i wasnt online


lesson learned

...........and i think he found a fix in another forum after i searched around

[ddark1]

thanks for the birthday gift my friend, love it. My phone is working talk, text, wap, and mms, and adryn cooked rom 3.0 vanilla. Now if I could just get EVDO working, I'll be set. No one knows the solution to getting EVDO settings to stick once flashed to Cricket. There's two people on HowardForums that know, but not sharing, til then I have to have patience to surf 1x.
