Blank Screen I just purchased a Nextel ic902 phone about a week ago. Now, when I open the phone I just have a blank white screen. I can dial a number and call it but the display does not work. Also when the phone is closed that outter screen works just fine. When the phone is open the outter screen does change over to the Sprint logo. How do I get the screen to work again. I have already tried the easy fixes like, shutting the phone off and back on and taking the battery out and letting it sit for 5 minutes or so, I have also just left the phone open for an extended period of time in case it just needed time to load.

I'm sorry to tell you, but an ic902 can never work on the Boost system. Here's why. The ic902 is a hybrid phone. That is, it uses two different cellular systems to operate. Specifically, voice calls on the ic902 are placed over the Sprint CDMA network and Push-to-Talk (PTT) calls are transmitted over Nextel's iDEN network.

Boost Mobile calling (both, voice and PTT) uses the iDEN network from Nextel. Thus, the ic902's radio transmitter (which is CDMA) cannot make calls on the Boost ( iDEN ) system.

Moreover, if you plan to use Boost Mobile, I STRONGLY suggest that you NOT purchase a Nextel phone and have it unlocked to use for Boost.

Although Nextel and Boost phones seem the same - they are not. If you look at the model number of Nextel phones most of them end in a zero. (ie., i850, i870 etc.) where Boost Mobile Phones end with the number five. (ie., i855, i875, etc.) This is because the transmitters in the phones are set to different frequencies for different purposes (like for texting.)

If you go to eBay for example, those who sell unlocked Nextel phones to use for Boost (if they're honest) will inform potential buyers in their eBay listings that their unlocked Nextel phone will not (text, for example) on the Boost network. These unlocked Nextel phones will have limitations when used on Boost.

To prevent problems down the road, ALWAYS purchase a Boost phone to use on the Boost network.

the best thing to do is to reprogram the phone to your sim card. to do so when your phone is on and insert right sim appears on-screen dial ##000000# this will send you to a screen with 1.view 2.edit 3. done. go to edit and change the MSID to 0000000000 (10 zeroes) this will pair your phone with the new chip. but since the hybrid 902 has both technologies IDEN and CMDA you will only be able to use the IDEN part with a boost chip. I have an ic902 flashed to use with Pocket and Boost.

you need to take the phone and have it fully service....do not power on wet phone it could short the main-board out
