    Phone thinks I'm roaming since root

    I rooted my Droid 2 by the Windows instructions on http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dro...r2d2-a957.html

    Seemed to work just fine, am able to get root access on terminal emulator, etc.

    However, since then my phone shows the ROAMING icon, If i try to make a call i get a message from Verizon that I'm being transfered to a representative who can assist me, and I have no data connection.

    For work I practically NEED to turn this phone into a wi-fi hot spot.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    THanks!

    Call *228. You need to reactivate. If you're lazy, *22899 will automate it.

    Breakfast beats worrying.

    thanks, now what

    Thanks! I don't know why I didn't think of that.

    I can now make phone calls. woot!

    I downloaded and tried to use BARNACLE WI-FI Tether and I still get a pop-up about tethering that I am guessing is coming from the Verizon stuff. Is there a better app for wi-fi tethering? Also if there is one that does not appear to be ad-hoc that would be good too, as I"m not sure if the hardware I'm testing works with ad-hoc.

    [ROOT] Framaroot, a one-click .apk to root
    I have verified it works with these Motorola devices running android 2.3.4
