for DX?
rom, sbf, carrier?

Rom - cyanogen mod 9
Carrier - appalachian wireless
Sbf - ntelos

I bootlooped the phone a while back, and ntelos was the only working sbf i could find....

did you try dialing *228?
maybe start here Help locating SBF

 

[newbroot83]

Yeh. I even took it to the store. They couldnt do it either. The system shows ntelos as the carrier instead of appalachian wireless. Ill try that sbf guide out

After doing some further research, I've come to the conclusion that there is NO SBF file out there on any of the forums for Appalachian Wireless. One guy told me that he had talked with a tech at AW who told him that Motorola doesnt give them ANY software. All their phones come pre-loaded and any problems they get from customers has to go back to motorola for warranty work. That pretty much sucks, but I guess thats one of the fringe benefits of living in a hick town. I did notice that all the spec for Cellular South's Milestone X seem to match up except for the PRL. I was wondering if one could flash the Cellular South SBF and then attempt to change the prl via CDMA workshop? I have located the PRL file for AW.



This is a direct quote from that link....looks like im screwed

also which model do you have
look on label under battery, not in software
should be something like MB810

have you looked @ apn settings (my list)

try a app like APN Backup & Restore
backup current apn settings and edit the back up, and restore
try these settings Appalachian Wireless apn

also may need to flash the generic milestone X sbf first, as posted in the thread I linked, that one worked for calls atleast

 

[newbroot83]

Awesome. The milestone x was just a aolid phone and i hate to lose its usefulness. I like to keep a backup. Ill let you know what happens. Thanks once again

[themib]

yes please, let me know
and if it works, one us should post over @ Milestone X Forum

 

[newbroot83]

Agreed. Those of us stuck with appalachian wireless could use the help. I would love to make an sbf file of my maxx just in case, but im not a dev and not sure where to start

[themib]

is your RAZR MAXX on Appalachian Wireless? or have another android device?
if so, use APN Backup & Restore or other apn app to find correct settings

 

[newbroot83]

Yes my maxx is aw. The apn settings will be the same for both devices?
