Root [GUIDE] How To Restore Service If You've Lost Your MEID

got meid reset and esn back now i need to program and i dont have another phone to call them on lol wt*
Call them on it and pretend your on another phone and write down all the numbers they give you. you start with ##626* and enter 587846(i think) and it opens program menu, first number is supposed to be your phone number, second number is the one you need, just write it all down and pretend it all worked to the metro agent and hang up and go thru it yourself.

I love how they assume people are to stupid to do this and you have to lie to them to get your numbers, lol.

how can you fine out if data working i just did prl 3020 upgrade and phone works fine so yeah i mean ill figure it out i prefer c-r 2.2.1 over cwm recovery img what would you suggest to use and or do
Just turn off wifi and launch your browser, if the 1x icon pops up top then you have data, no icon, no data and the page wont load.

I would use GNM or CWM. Just don't use Rom Manager to install CWM.

Okay im stuck as hell here too. I did the downgrade from 2.2.2 too 2.2.1 using lgnpst. My phone responds to qxdm but says error response recieved from target for both esn and meid, rest is fine. I cant get nothing....
Did you confirm in about phone that meid is zeroed?

Also it sounds like you might not be entering the commands properly. the meid needs to look like 0xA000043345746A

Yes all the information is blank. It goes offline, verifys spc correct then I type RequestNVItemWrite esn 0x807efxxx (changed last 3) and it says target error...
you cant write esn, thats leftover in the instructions fro another device I believe.
