Cricket update messed up my phone

They said I would need to buy a new sim,which is fine but id like to know that a new sim would solve the problem
 
Should I try to wipe it and reinstall firmware?

No don't wipe anything, Like I mentioned, go to a Cricket store, and have them check the phone, one of the agents there can check your phone with their SIM, to see if your card is defective. They can even check your SAIM and see if it is defective. That's the easiest and quickest way.

Also to make sure, your SIM has worked on this phone prior to the update, Correct ??
 
sometimes, these agents are npt so qualified to check all these

Listen, I am with Cricket also, you don't need them to be smart, you simply want them to check the SIM card, and make sure the issue is SIM related and not phone related, this is the easiest and quickest way to get a resolution for your issue.

1) They can check your current SIM
2) they can test their SIM in your phone

These 2 test cost nothing and no need to spend on a new SIM card, until you are sure of the issue. They don't need to be Rocket Scientist.

What did you end up doing, I may move your thread to the Cricket section, in-case you still didn't resolve, let me know
 
My experience (an educated guess)? It is not an Android Software update. It is, in my case an LG software update using Android name. I have most of the LG apps disabled or uninstalled and they're trying to reinstall and get back to business.
