After switching my PPC6600 to Verizon, it mostly works, but a couple issues remain.

First of all, here is what I have done:

1. Loaded Verizon's firmware, which changed the radio and Ext ROM.
2. Switched SID/NID to a Verizon number.
3. Loaded a Verizon PRL.
4. Entered proper MDN and MSID.

Here is where the ghost remains:
Under Roaming, there are Home Only, Sprint(!), and AB.
Why doesn't that say Verizon now? Also, if I tap the Antenna symbol on the header, it says Sprint PCS!

If I set roaming to Home Only, I can make and receive calls & txt messages.
If I set roaming to Sprint, I can place calls, but incoming go direct to voicemail.

Also, my data connection does not work (CDMA wireless) and I have a hunch it's related. It dials, but then says "The answering modem has disconnected".

Any ideas? Thanks!

Got data working!!!!!!!!

Under 3G Data1 I switched from "MIP Pref" to "No IP" and now my CDMA data connection works! I am getting only 1X speeds (100-120 kbps), so now I need to find why EVDO isn't working (I'm pretty sure we have it here).

Still can't figure how the Sprint labels show up after I flashed all the ROM's though!

I love this idea; please consider making a HOWTO for this.

I am weary of Sprint and envious of EVDO for the BlueAngel.

Could you document what you've done so far?

Same problem, trying to make work verizon on mexican Iusacell. 1x works, but when trying setting MIP Only or MIP Preferd, i get "No modem at abothe number" I tryed all the roms I found on the net, nothing works. There MAY! be some aditional ROM storing phone settings like number, passwords, SID, MIN and all the settings refered to the data & Phone.
With Samsung i730 i Tryed QPST, but it doesn't recognize 6600, any 1 Know about som software capable to conect to the phone???
