Got the baseband downloaded, but nervous about the SS# bit. Is anyone else having this pop up? Im not concerned about the #, (VZW already has it), but Im worried about them tracking what I have done to my phone. What do you guys think?

eff em they can shove it. Are they going to bust us for being geeks. Last I checked that wouldn't hold up in a 5th grade principals office.

I did not get asked for a SS#, but it did tell me something on the lines of
"If you are switching to a new phone, please power down this device and power up the new device and dial *228 on the new device to activate. Otherwise, please wait."

Waited for about 3 seconds then it started doing it's thing and then said "Please wait while we gather some information"

Listened to the 'on-hold' music for about 15 seconds then was told "Your phone has been programmed successfully."

And that was that

Honestly haven't seen any immediate improvements but only time will tell.

Just afraid of worst case scenario, ie: note ion my bill informing me I violated my warranty, etc.

Can this be done through ROM manager like I did the new kernels yesterday?

Thanks for the help

Yup. Thats exactly how I did it and worked just like a ROM.

I just installed the new baseband. No idea if it did anything...yet.

Oh, and it asked me for the 10-digit number of my phone and the billing account password, nothing about my SS#.

Yeah I got the same thing about switching phones and not asking for SS#. I seem to get better service in my office at work so that's a good sign.

 

[tcrews]

I just did it.

Press 1....wait....wait......."your phone has been successfully activated, goodbye"

 

[verian]

yea I'm getting the ss# question and being asked to call a different number from a land line. Its getting personal. this is going to be fun. I'll call the number and the get back to you guys

I wonder if corporate users have to enter the last 4 of the SSN or PW. I only had to listen to the reminder to power down old phones. It took about 30 seconds.

 

[hailtothetheif83]

loaded fine for me... did NOT get asked for my last 4 of social just pressed 1 and waited for her to tell me it was programmed.


just want to make sure I have the correct version ends in .00R
