So too pull this off you simply took these files from a 6700 on the same network? What about the A-Key and the other various things? I mean if all you do is copy those files now you have all of that account info in yer phone - or is that what you were trying to do?
Telus doesn't use A-Key on alot of devices, atleast not on their PDA phones and alot of handsets I have , ofcourse I dont have them all, but I am assuming they dont use it at all on anything by the looks of it so far.

I was able to move an account from a V3C to a 6700 along with data and
it worked as well, roughly the same files - easy to figure out.

And it doesn't matter WHAT kind of device it is, all Qualcomm handsets use the same file system structure - so yes, moving the files to another device of different type - same network - does work. Moving between networks can be done as well - but requires some changes to PRL, etc.

I have moved a V3C from Telus to Bell and the other way around, as well as a few PDA phones Smart & WM.

The only problems you may run into are some handsets have their file systems locked, even if you have the SPC/MSL. You can get around this with most devices that have a bootloader mode. For ones that do not, its quite a bit different and requires some foolin' around.
