verizon fire krzr on cricket

[jguttz]

can it be done? i have a friend wanting to buy one and is asking me if i can flash it for him to work on cricket. thanks in advance for any help.

It's possible. You'll need the PRL, ERI, 1xRTT data, and MMS stuff off of a cricket V3c or l7c and copy them to the krzr. You still won't get the cricket clicks menu though

ok cool what if his brother has the cricket krzr could i get the stuff i need off of that one? and is there a tutorial that would tell me what to do and what to use? ive never modded any cdma phones before, what should i know before i do that? thanks.

Yeah you can get the info you need from his cricket krzr.
Follow these instructions on the cricket krzr:
Use Qualcomm QPST to backup service programming..... Unplug your phone from the PC, power it off, then back on, and re-connect it to the PC. Use the QPST Configuration program, make sure your phone is displayed/available... Select the port with your phone, then use the Start Client pull down, select Service Programming. At the phone selection screen, your phone should be listed and highlighted, click OK. Click the READ FROM PHONE button. On the "Enter Service Programming Code" screen, enter 000000 (or your phones SPC), and click OK. When the read is complete, and you see values filled in, click the SAVE TO FILE button. The file name box will automatically be filled in as your phone's ESN number followed by _SP... (example: 1A3333Ad_SP) click the Save button. Click on the Connection pull down in QPST Service Programming, and click EXIT. Exit the QPST Configuration program.

Use Motorola PST to backup additional files.... Unplug your phone from the PC, power it off, then back on, and re-connect it to the PC. Start PST Phone Programmer. Use the File pull down, and click on NEW. Select BREW File, and click OK. Use the Phone pull down menu and click on READ. When the PST Phone Programmer Progress window indicates the Read Procedure has completed successfully, (it says "It's now safe to disconnect the phone"), close that progress window. In the PST Phone Programmer window, use the File pull down menu, and click SAVE AS... name the file, and click save...

Repeat the process using PST to backup each of the following... CDMA Enhanced Roaming Indicator (ERI) File, CDMA NAM File, CDMA Preferred Roaming File, Feature File, Mobile IP File (NOTE: you might get an error stating this may or may not be supported, click YES to continue, it will report Partially completed), MMS Data File, RTT Data File and RTT Browser File (NOTE: have Ver 6.x tab selected before you click READ FROM PHONE).

NOTE: Not all of the PST backups will be used for this process, but they are good to have "just in case..."

NOTE: You do not need to exit PST, or unplug/poweroff/poweron/replug between READ operations.

Ok now on the cricket krzr, use p2k commander to copy /a/mobile/system/mma_ucp to your computer ALSO MAKE A BACKUP OF THE ONE ON THE FIRE KRZR!!

Now connect the fire krzr and put all this stuff back on. After copying the mma_ucp, restart the phone. If it's not messed up, then cool, if it is, load the original mma_ucp back on. This file controls the menus and if it works, will get the cricket clicks on there for you.

hey jguttz i am trying 2 do the same thing with my krzr and was wondering whenever u get the data that u need 2 switch to a cricket if u can tell me wat it iz....like neverdeath said the PRL, ERI, 1xRTT data,MMS stuff, and anything else?

Ok so I have an unactivated cricket l7c slvr. I imagine I can get the files off of that. Will it work since the cricket phone is unactivated? I have a k1m that i want to get data on... so Im hoping to put the files from the unactivated cricket phone on there and get data going. ..possible?

(This would be my first mod on a cdma phone. Althogh Ive been reading threads like mad, I havent seen any that directly address this issue.)

That is the correct process, both for the mod you wanna do and for preparing to do it, reading before posting is much appreciated :D
