Mobile Network Access Problem

Got my Droid Incredible yesterday and activated via Verizon a couple of hours ago. I am now trying to get it set up. First major problem I've encountered is the Mobile Network is stuck in the "turning on" mode - it just won't turn on... On edit: I've tried the *228 option 2 route to no avail.

I went through the activate phone process again and I'm now connected to the mobile network. Just FYI if someone else has this problem.

I have the same problem. I tried activating again (registered my ESN on verizon's website), then *228 option one, still the same problem. Anyone have any ideas??

In settings, mobile network function "turning on" perpetually. Shaded and doesn't do anything. I've removed battery, activated, reactivated and been on the phone with Verizon several times. Extremely frustrating first-time smart phone experience. It was fine for 3 weeks until yesterday and restoring to factory settings. ARGH!

Don - The solution that worked for me was a call to Verizon. Interesting that you have this problem after it has been working for 3 weeks, but nonetheless, call Verizon and tell them the problem. They need to provision you again. They will remove you from the data plan and put you back on. Don't factory reset, that probably won't help.

Thanks, but I keep calling them, nobody has an answer and then each CSR says they'll call me back with a programmer and they never DO. I want to pull my hair out!

The only reason they will have you do factory reset is in case the phone will not provision correctly when the system is provisioned correctly. A way to reprovision the phone without going through the hassles of a hard reset is,

dial ##program (use the digits that correspond to program)
go to nam settings i thin it is, go to mdn and change it to 0000000000
then go to the mind settings and change it to 0000000000. hit menu, commit modifications (i think thats what it says). then the phone will reset, and then it comes back up, do *22800, wait for the chick and then press 1.

Call them again and tell them to remove you from the data plan and put you back in. It's a known problem. If it still doesn't work, request a new phone.

Or do that.

Not following the ##program instruction. What do you mean? How do I get to the screen that allows me to change NAM and mind settings?
