Did you finish the process with QPST after using CDMA? If your getting a fast busy signal like sound, it's more then likely Cricket not having your correct ESN. Do you have an account setup already and have provided them your converted MEID #?

My friend had given me the wrong MIN number.. for some reason data still worked. Changed the MIN and walla.. Find out another thing later that day though.. Google voice acts crazy with cricket on a flashed Droid X. Made it pretty much impossible for someone to call me. Would actually say the number is no longer in service. Tried to deactivate call forwarding from the info in account settings for google voice. it says to dial *740 on your phone and hit call.. Doesn't work. *720 WILL fix the issue though. Something to do with Cricket not doing conditional call forwarding. .

Glad to hear it's working. Actually, funny thing with Cricket and data...as soon as your done with CDMA, you will have data. Let's say you have a data plan already on your phone and you buy another phone you are going to upgrade to. You can still flash your new phone to Cricket and while your old phone might not have voice calls/texts, you can surf the web on both phones still getting perfectly clear 3G where it's available

YEA! I have a friend that i flashed a mogul and a Touch pro to cricket back in the day. He had the mogul activated and was still able to surf the web with the Touch pro. Nice little bonus i guess. lol

There used to be an online tutorial on how to flash a DX to Cricket but the whole forum has been down for a while. Its a lengthy process to flash and as you already know, it takes a long time if you don't know what you are doing 100%. Techs charge up to $90 for this flash for a reason...they know the ins and outs and have a guide that's taken time and patience to make. Like myself. I can flash any Motorola Droid to Cricket in less then 10 minutes. Its taken me hours to get that fast and lots of trail and error.
What part are you having trouble with?

not sure why the other person hasnt answered but I would like some help with the same issue. I can talk and text fine via the PRL change. I can use anything CDMAWS and QPST to edit my phone but after i try using a nvram backup from whiterabbit or whether i try to edit the settings using QPST the phone restarts as normal and u see the data bar going from 1x to 3g and the phone soft resets over and over. ideas? I would like to at least get the net working. from there im sure i could resolve the next issue.

CDMA or QPST should not be causing your phone to reset unless you accidently changed a setting in QPST. Which PRL are you using? Most stable is 49027 for the DX at the moment. Did you have these issues before the flash? Did you buy the phone used and then started the flash process? I hope you didn't get a busted DX

Which is an older PRL. Might even be geo-specific. How are your 3G speeds with the 3200? 49027 is the newest one that I know of.

Ahh, that must be why it works! I am on the $55 plan and my 3G speeds are consistent 1.2Ghz when stupid iJunk users aren’t bogging down AT&T's network. When speed is at it's best, it always beats out my girlfriend’s Droid X 3G speed on Verizon, not by much but enough to say so.

Im using 49027. I've narrowed it down to possible glitch. Upon entering the info for the proxy manually it goes into 1x then 3g then reader loop. Ivebeen using a stock backup to revert to prior tweaking so I can keep trying to figure this out if u have a exact method u use im all ears. Or just ideas. Im running out lol
Also one more thing, ive just entered in the proxy information manually via the cell phone and the phone hasnt given me a boot loop like it used to, still the internet isnt working yet so im going to go into QPST and see if just changing the mobile IP setting throws me into the loop again...EDIT: it sends me into a soft restart loop since its on mob+simp f/back again... catlog didnt show anything that i can see sadly. the soft restart forces the log to stop and doesnt show why it did.switched it back to mobile ip only and stopped the reboot cycle but no data at all ugh...

Just flash it in ROM Manager

I've talked to a couple of folks on the V10 token. Some say it has no relevance and one said it might actually harm your phone since it's not even made for the Droid X specifically. I tried it and it didn’t do anything. It came to be that my MNC in my APN was incorrect.
Without doing a full SBF on your phone, there array of issues you might have are to wide to diagnose. You need to start over and not use your backup. If the problem still persists then let us know but I doubt it will if you did the Cricket flash properly.
Have you changed your APN settings as well? I use anycut from the market to edit and save it.

[Q] Flash to Cricket???

so a friend of mine wants me to flash his continuum to cricket. can n e one tell me how to connect it to QPST??? thx. ive already used google, ppcgeeks, here of course, &hc.

You need to put the phone in modem mode.. It is in settings.

Tell him to sell it. Only talk and text work. Ppp configs revert back to verizon so three g won't work.
And it's not called modem mode. It's Dial up networking.

There are a lot of guides for flashing cricket to Android phones
The only thing that differs from say, flashing it to a droid 2 global, is getting the phone connected to qpst initially..

I've looked for guides and so far have not found any for the continuum flashed to cricket on 2.1 update 1. I know how to use qpst and I've programed it onto my NV items and it states 7 written but isn't it suppose to say 12? But otherwise I have talk and text but haven't figured out internet or mms. So if someone can point me where I have to go and I will be glad to do it. Thank-you. Z

That's because there are none xP as I was saying, you can use pretty much any of the guides for any android phone...
And I am not sure, but doesn't the internet settings hide under the m.ip tab in qpst? I don't know...
I remember though, there is a file you are supposed to set up so that it automatically sets up a proxy out something xP
What you need is to talk to someone who got it to work xP but I highly doubt you'll find that person xP

On stock roms GPS doesn't work without activation; however, on roms such as CyanogenMod you can use GPS without having activated the phone.

Did they really tell you that? When the phone comes new from the factory it isn't activated. I guess they use elven magic to activate it *eyeroll* Verizon reps are serious bullsh!t artists.

Noticing that the wifi tether problem keeps coming back for my Droid X, I was wondering if anyone has a solution. Today is Nov 17, 2011 and I find solutions as far back as August, but nothing more recent.
I got my Droid RAZR fixed in about 5 minutes using SQLite editing line 150 changeing the "1" to a "0" and now I use the Verizon Hotspot button and tethering works great, although none of the wifi tether apps will work.
Has anyone found a similar fix for the Droid X?
Thanks in advance!

HTC Vogue wont activate after flash

Hi, so I used cokes flasher and I'm on verizon :/. I wanted android NAND on my phone so I flashed my phone or I think I did and I wiped my micro sd card and put the android file on It but it didn't work so I then realized I was roaming so i called verizon to activate my phone and after a successful activation my phone still doesn't make calls or texts I have no idea what to do and I feel sick to my stomach thinking about this :/ I wish I never played around with this. My phone is fine besides the fact it cannot make a call or text. I'm on windows mobile 6.1. I am so scared I ruined my favorite phone, I hope someone can please help me.

Also, the rom keeps checking the "use 2g service only" box and i constantly have to UN check it? My stock backup has disappeared and Matt's utility does not work for me? Any suggestions?

This used to happen to my old Droid 2 Global which was unlocked for GSM. I used it on AT&T and sometimes the signal would drop completely and a reboot would be the only way to bring it back, and my Razr M often drops data connectivity (though signal still remains strong) for a couple minutes at relatively frequent intervals. I think it's just the problem with using phones meant for CDMA on GSM networks.
With that said, what does Matt's Utility say? Have you installed the Motorola drivers found here ?
If none of that helps, try going to a T-Mobile store and asking for a replacement SIM. It sounds kinda dumb, but I had a Nokia Lumia 710 that would randomly reboot throughout the day. Somewhere on the internet I read that someone else had the same problem, and replacing the SIM fixed it. I thought it was stupid at the time, but I got a new SIM and it worked! Crazy stuff.

thanks for the reply. unfortunately it does not matter now. i used rsd lite to flash to stock which all went good but there was an ota update that took and the phone rebooted but will now not turn on at all no matter what. It is totally done... I only get a green light while charging or plugged into the computer but nothing works to bring it back to life. Thanks anyways!!!
