Help Eris No Services No GPS

Hi,
I tried to get my Eris to work on Sprint. Could not get it to work. I tried to get it back to Verizon. Now the phone gets no service and GPS doesn't come on. I think i screw up the PRL and NAM using CDMA workshop. I tried to different roaming (flight mode is off) and Location On then turned on GPS in Androzic. I tried write back the old verizon PRL and NAM settings but I think there is an issue with the files. Is there a problem with the radio? Is there a radio rom for Eris that I can flash? Are there generic PRL and NAM data verizon files that I can load with CDMA workshop or flash? Not sure what to do next. I could use any help.
Thanks
TheWheeler

TheWheeler, probably the best thing to do is to flash the Flashback_21 ROM with the radio. I believe that flashing the radio will install it with all default options and APNs, etc., to work on Verizon. You'll be back to stock with the stock Recovery, but from there you can re-root and flash whichever ROM that you like.

It's my understanding that Sprint will not allow you to run any phone that they did not sell on their network, even if it is capable.

Flashback's explanation and instructions are here: [ROM][03/06/2011]FlashBack21 v2 -Return to Factory Stock - March 2011 OTA - xda-developers

Obviously, you want the one with the radio, and you'll want to read the instructions at the xda-developers.com thread that I linked above. (There is a part under a heading in red.)
