Help Can't Activate Elite on VM after Sleipnir, questionable mobile network state

[thrustinj]

Just did a root and rom and I can't activate it on on VM.

Service State is "In service", I've got PRL 61007, -87dBm 0 asu on CDMA - EvDo rev A. What worries me is that it says the Mobile Network State is Disconnected. My other VM Optimus V works fine.

I have a Mac, so I don't think I can run a PRL update without the right software.

UPDATE

Went into the testing menus *#*#4636#*#* and could not open the Phone Information; crashed out. The other menus work fine.

"The process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly".

UPDATE

The only thing I have in SETTINGS - WIRELESS & NETWORK SETTINGS - MOBILE NETWORKS is "Data enabled - Enable data access over Mobile Network."

UPDATE

At certain times I have blue wi-fi signal and blue cell signal, but when I try to run the VM Activate app, it shuts off wi-fi and the cell bars go grey (I'm guessing that's a lower cell network speed).

Sorry, just trying to give as many details as possible.

UPDATE

Managed to catch blue cell bars and ran the phone information secret menu again. Got the Phone Information menu to work. Trying to switch between CDMA/GSM auto and separate CDMA and GSM only settings.

UPDATE

Put stock VM rom back on it and it's still not connecting. When I run the My Account program, it fails the Voice test, passes Data and says SMS failed and to select update profile which may solve the problem. I have no idea what that means.

Odd...I'd recommend the soft brick restore flash that's stickied in the forum here and get back to stock, reroot and try again.

No access to a Windows machine.

Looks like it's having the flickering 2g/3g problem other people are complaining about.

Did you try booting your phone into "recovery" and wiping cache & dalvic cache, then re-booting??

I ended up calling VM. They gave me a ## service number to put in my phone number (over writing the previous owner) and a new MSID. Then it worked.

I'll reroot it tonight.

I'm sorry I can't remember the service number.
