I did a search a found information about the field test mode. It says to hit the menu button and then the left soft button. Is the menu button the middle button in between the two soft buttons? I enabled the seem that would allow me to turn the field test mode on but I don't see it working. If someone could shed light on the ESN information and the field test question that would be great!

It's "ENS"... and the best way to tell is to flash with stock, see how your reception acts, then flex with Cingular and see if there's a difference. Most on Cingular will notice a big difference, while a small few notice that it actually causes problems with reception and go back to stock.

As for "ESN", don't worry about that, lol
