I have Verizon Motorola Droid Pro which i am using outside USA, will changing the radio solve the USSD problem?

Its a pain to check credit balance.

Could be... but I'm not sure...
But for now you can't change radio...
Did you try putting an european backup with correct kernel?

Is there any progress on this topic?
Right now I'm in an area with low umts signal. Since the rom is not able to switch to gprs connections, I'm very often cut off :(

Unfortunately I don't have/had the time to work on it myself.

I've found that rsdlite can rewrite the radio, but sbf_flash no!
So with rsdlite you'll change the radio, but you'll brick your phone (you have a locked kernel).
With sbf_flash you'll unbrick your phone without rewrite the radio!

This steps are only for European PRO with argentinian radio and kernel (2.3.4)

1) flash this rom with rsdlite http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?7i4kypar0kyg4y8

2) flash argentinian 2.3.4 with sbf_flash
./sudo flash_sbf nameofthissbf.sbf

3) root argentinian http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1609458

4) enjoy!

    Ok.... I've seen a lot of users in many forums that want change the radio...


    See HERE!!!! For european with Argentinian radio!!!

    I've changed the radio on droid pro... (american)

    But I didn't remember how!!

    Edit...
    Yes I know....! With rsdlite... Ok rsdlite can rewrite the radio. Sbf_flash no...
    The American users know this thing, but for European it is a good news, because they can flash an american/argentinian sbf without changing radio.... Naturally with sbf_flash...
    Flashing american on european with rsdlite will brick your phone, without changing the radio...
    European on American with rsdlite will brick your phone, without changing your radio...
    But if you'll use sbf flash, your phone will be glad!
    You must see only if you have a locked kernel... (argentinian 2.3.6 I'm sure... for american 2.3.4, I don't know...)

    Attention!!!
    Argentinian gsm is 800/2100
    European gsm is 900/1200
    So we can understand the european's issues with argentinian rom....


    I'm always sure that we must search the radio in the sbf! Not files...

    I've done some steps here, only for trying...

    1) Put your phone in bootloader mode

    2) Start with Linux Knoppix live cd

    3) Open terminal emulator from your folder where you have your sbf (i've used 2.26.20 verizon SBF..))

    4) put also sbf_flash in the same folder ( you can find here:http://blog.opticaldelusion.org/search/label/sbf_flash )

    chmod +x sbf_flash

    then

    sudo ./sbf_flash -r --bpsw 2260.sbf

    Connect your phone...


    Reboot and now you'll have a new radio!
