Cricket flashed Droid 2 texting issues

[Android Question]

I recently had Cricket flash my Droid 2 to their net... Now it seems I can only send text messages, and that is only if I restart my phone. I can't recieve texts at all. Can I fix this myself, or do I need to take it back to Cricket, and have them look at it ?

If your phone has the option for Access Points, you may want to check that they are configured correctly for Cricket's network. Below are the CORRECT APN settings for Cricket's network:

Anywhere you see XXXXX you enter your Cricket phone number.

Name: Cricket
APN: cricket
Proxy:<Not Set>
Port:<Not Set>
Username: XXXXXXXXXX@mycricket.com
Password: cricket
Server:<Not Set>
MMSC: http://mms(dot)mycricket(dot)com/servlets/mms?X-Cricket-MDN=XXXXXXXXXX
MMS Proxy:<Not Set>
MMS Port: 8080
MCC: 310
MNC: 004
Auth Type:<Not Set>
APN type: default,supl,mms
APN Protocol: IPv4
APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4

To get to Acess Points, go to Settings, then tap the More.. underneath Data Usage. Next select Mobile Networks, and then Access Points. If you do not see an access point called Cricket, create one with the above settings and save it as default.

Hope this helps
