Help Virgin Mobile Motorola Triumph won't activate

So I've had this Motorola Triumph for Virgin Mobile. It was working fine for over a year when I decided to root it. About a month after I rooted the phone, it got stuck in this boot cycle in which it would only stay booted for a minute then crash. I preceded to do a system restore only to discover that the phone would not work on Virgin Mobile's network. Right now I am forced to use my old and very slow samsung intercept. Every time I go to swap phones on Virgin Mobile's website, the phone will not change the MSN and phone number under settings. Also, after I did the system restore, the phone has been running especially slow whenever I use any app. Please Help
Thanks
 
Okay go to mtdev unroot rom make sure that you factory reset it and install the unroot rom the only downside is that you can't use clockwork mod unless you reinstall it or you can use u9000 rom which works great for me or just get any other froyo rom

The Crashing sounds like either a rouge app or a custom rom install that didnt take correctly but since u didnt mention installing a rom ill assume u were on stock

While u were rooted recently before it stopped working did u try and change anything else on the triumph, PRL, ETC. ETC.?

Also while rooted did you load any custom roms onto the device?

currently im coming up with IDK lol but adding more info may have other ppl who know much more jumping in to help out


If u think about flashing a custom rom like the above person mentioned remember that some roms remove certain functions cause there not working yet

Stock/Froyo based roms have most if not all things working
