They said this is because they are trying to get everyone off of Alltel devices. Is there any way I can flash this phone or hack it so that Verizon will activate it on my account? I have already unlocked it and put a 6.5 rom on it. I was thinking I could just dial *228 and use option 3 since I am in a coverage area but the automated system doesn't give me an option 3 and when I push it anyway it says "that is an invalid entry" Is there anyway I can get this little guy on verizon?
Thanks so much!

Well, it will certainly work on verizon's network but the trick is talking to the right person that will add your device to their network. I believe Alltel is being absorbed by Verizon so maybe if you told them this was a relative's device that was on Alltel and they don't want to get another phone to use it with Verizon. I really think it depends on who you talk to at Verizon. Be really nice.
