Flash or Flashing–Technically, flashing refers to the overwriting or re-writing of the phone’s firmware. There are many phones which can be flashed to cricket with all features working. On most CDMA phones, programming the phone can be done “over the air” by dialing a special code, usually *228 or some variation. Colloquially speaking, flashing can also loosely mean making a phone from one carrier work on another carrier. The easy way to tell the difference is that if your phone does NOT take a SIM card, then it is probably CDMA.

To flash a phone to cricket you will be overwriting th phones firmware. The firmware is software in the phone that doesn’t change when you turn it off, and it cannot be deleted unless it is overwritten, hence flashed.

And also a monster file – -”Monster File”/”Monster Pack”, ROM, or “Kitchen”–System software that is needed to flash a phone.

Access to the service programming menu can be disabled in a phone’s firmware.
