Can Sprint TP be used on Virgin Mobile?

VirginMobile is actually Sprint, right? I want to give my TP to a friend going to get a new VirginMobile. Is it as easy as register the phone and that's it?

Do I need to flash the TP back to stock ROM before switching over?

Thanks!

They are, but I'm not sure what their policies are. Most pre-paid providers will accept any phone tho, they're just happy to have the business.

So technically the phone should work. I have no experience with Virgin, so I'm not sure whether or not they'll activate it.

Well I didn't know the answer so I looked around...
And it seems that what I found is that noone else here knows that either.

So...
I would reccomend checking with Virgin and posting up your experience here. It might be helpful to others.

Yeah I search around. The only thing I found was TP2 to be used on Boost.

I called virgin mobile and one person said "yes let me connect you to this person", but that person said no. Maybe its like boost you just have to keep trying. I asked about the intercept by samsung a sprint phone.
