Use Phoenix or Diego with crack to load PRL. They can be found in the forum.

PALM OS TREO (650, 700p, 755)

Programming your Treo:

1. Getting your SPC/MSL code: If you have a Verizon or Alltel Treo, then your SPC/MSL is set to all zeros (000000). If you have a sprint Treo, then you will need to find that code.

a. Place your device in Passthrough mode by dialing ##DIAG# on a sprint Treo. Rhe code changes depending on what type of Treo you have. Just remember that each code has an initial command, then the code, and then a terminal command. The initial commands are ## or #*#. The terminal commands are # or the “Send” button. For example, on a Verizon Treo, the code could be #*#DIAG# or #*#DIAG-Send. The code “DIAG” is actually 3424 on your dial pad. That spells DIAG. All codes will be listed that way except the ##SPC# code, that actually means to enter the SPC code in place of the letters.

b. Once in Passthrough mode, connect your device to your programming cable (you must install the prolific drivers first), and use Bitpim to read filesystem and navigate to nvm\nvm\nvm_security on open the file. One of the six digit numbers in that file is your SPC. Write those numbers down and close Bitpim.

2. Loading a PRL and changing the SPC: Open QPST and connect to your Treo. Click “Read from Phone” and enter your SPC when prompted. On the settings tab you can change your SPC to “000000” or whatever you would like it to be. Go to the roam tab and click “Browse” and then navigate to the PRL file that you would like to load. Now click “Write to Phone.”

3. Programming the NAM: On your Treo dial ##SPC# (remember that the code are different for different carriers). This will allow you to enter your MDN, MIN, SID and NID.

4. Setting up Mobile Web: “Go to Prefs\Network” and hit “Menu” key or tap the top left of the screen. Select “Options\View Log” and this will open the log. Type “?” (no quotes) and hit “Enter” key, hit “Enter” key again, and then type “pdpset 1” (no quotes) and hit “Enter” key again. Phone should respond something like “pdpset 1 set successfully.” Now go back to “Prefs\Network” and press “Menu” or tap top left of screen and select “Service\New.” There are two methods to setup your connection here and they are listed below. The first is the most common.

a. Method 1:
i. Service: Cricket Web
ii. Connection: High Speed Wireless
iii. User Name: your10digitphonenum@mycricket.com
iv. Password: cricket
v. Click on Details, uncheck Mobile IP, then OK
vi. Click on Connect to establish a connection

b. Method 2:
i. Service: Cricket Web
ii. Connection: Virtual Modem
iii. User Name: your10digitphonenum@mycricket.com
iv. Password: cricket
v. Phone: #777
vi. Click on Details\Advanced\Script
vii. Enter the following script:
1. Send: at$qcmdr=3
2. Send CR:
3. Send: at$qcqnc=0
4. Send CR:
5. End:
viii. Click OK, then OK
ix. Click on Connect to establish a connection

5. Enabling Proxy in Blazer: Open Blazer and stop it from connecting. Press “Menu” key or tap top left of screen. Go to “Options\Preferences\Advanced” and click “Set Proxy.” Check “Use custom proxy” and enter “Proxy Server: wap.mycricket.com” and “Port: 8080” and click “OK.”


Cableless Flash for Treo 650&700p

Place the CDMAFirmwareUpdater.prc file in “Storage Card\Palm\Launcher” and insert card. Don’t worry if the icon for the app is just a blank square (that’s normal). Click the app to open it, but DO NOT HIT THE “UPDATE NOW” button yet. Press the “Menu” key or tap the top left of the screen and select “Debug,” then uncheck everything except “Update PRL” and click “OK.” Now you can click the “Update Now” button. Just follow the rest of the steps above to program NAM and Web and your Treo is officially Cricket.

*Note* This method will only work on a Sprint Treo if you have your SPC

This concludes programming a Palm OS Treo on Cricket’s network with working web.

Actually I got it unlocked but when i try to do the web settings and do (“Go to Prefs\Network” and hit “Menu” key or tap the top left of the screen. Select “Options\View Log” and this will open the log.")It only gives me "about preferences" as the option)
any help anyone. I was wondering if we can use qpst to write the settings to the phone.

I just updated a Centro so it work on cricket, but I'm having problems getting the data connection to work (voice works fine). When attempting to create either a highspeed wireless or a virtual modem connection I get a username/pwd error. I've tried with the PRL 1040, 1050, and the current 1013 that *228 installs. I've done the same thing in the past with a treo 650 and 700p and they didn't have a problem.

I've installed the Iota.prc hack that disables Sprint provisioning (it is a sprint centro, v1.05).The error says "Please check your username and password and try again. Your service provider may not support dialup connections", says that regardless of it being a highspeed wireless or a virtualmodem connection. Anyone else run into this problem before?
