    Virgin Mobile S2 4G has clockwork, but all roms give Status 7

    Cool bmillar43068 good going dude. I guess those commands are typed in the program "toolchain" on windows OS? The ehow link you posted, state you need Ubuntu OS. I'll try it when I get some free time. Rxvexe your original prl is probably correct, I think you may have the newest prl for vm being...

    Virgin Mobile S2 4G has clockwork, but all roms give Status 7

    I suppose you should go to a better signal location and check again. I just found some apps that can tell you if you're on EVDO Rev0 2g or EVDO RevA 3g. Since this phone doesn't tell you straight off. Try them if you like "2G,3G,4G Network Monitor L" or "Network info Widget" (this one you have...

    Virgin Mobile S2 4G has clockwork, but all roms give Status 7

    Are you sure you don't have 3g? You have a good signal on your phone like -75db (under settings/aboutphone/status/signal. I guess you have 2 options. 1. Brick the phone so you can't boot it, and play dumb, getting it replaced. 2. Wait, for a VM rom, but will it bring back all your settings? I...

    Virgin Mobile S2 4G has clockwork, but all roms give Status 7

    That's the same firmware I'm using:) You do realize you can't send/receive mms now with the sprint rom. Since you no longer are using a virgin rom which has a proprietary framework piece of code. Just a thought but I think you should find out what your average data speed is, because you might...

    E4GT won't boot!!!! I have tried almost everything.....

    This may be a stupid piece of advise but make sure you have the phone show up in device manager under ports (com & lpt) use dialing codes to put phone in modem mode, on my phone it's 2 different codes I have to enter. ##8778# pick = all and *#7284# pick = modem for both. If that doesn't work I'd...

    Virgin Mobile S2 4G has clockwork, but all roms give Status 7

    Does the device work with Wifi? I'm new to this too. But it sounds to me like you may have lost your ha or aaa keys. That's in NV memory, flashing rom shouldn't erase or change those settings but if it's not that, it has to be some configuration that got changed. You should connect the phone to...
