Re: need to use verizon on a sprint phone

Hi, welcome to PPCGeeks.

First off, you can not use a Sprint branded phone on Verizon, unless you get them to accept the ESN of the device. If you can get them to do that, then you will need to do some work on changing the PRL and ROMs.

Second, there is no making the phones work like an iPhone, but rather using a them which looks like an iPhone. Check out some different apps, there are many.

Enjoy.

Re: need to use verizon on a sprint phone

Unfortunately it's not that easy. You have to call tech support 1-800-922-0204 and get a tech who knows what their talking about. It is very hard to find someone who can either add a non-native ESN to the system, or even get someone who can. You will need to sound very confident and sound very intelligent. Also don't say the phone is a Sprint device as they will LIE to you saying Sprint devices can never function on the Verizon network. Tell them it's an Alltel phone. It can take several days for the ESn to be added, so be patient. If you are able to get them to add the ESN then come back and I will help you with the rest, which is a long process...

No problem. Good luck getting a non-native ESN onto Verizon, it is rather hard...
