    1. We know that, and we’re happy you know that as well. Does it make a difference? We used that screen for all the bypass activation screen posts, it’s just a screen shot, shouldn’t effect the procedure for you.

  1. it makes a HUGE difference…a motorola droid & a htc droid are completely different!!!

    all i did on my eris was go thru to make the activation call, then hang up after they talked about options 1 & 2, then it lets you skip thru the rest of the screens…i don’t know yet whether it will do it every time I have to reset the phone…

    i know i did something to my last eris that is fine no matter how much I restart

  2. i had to restart my phone while out of the country in Canada (i live in the states) and it wont let me dial the *228 to activate it ….any help?
