I have a new alltel phone and I want to port my number back to verizon but activate this one on it.. they're telling me I need to send the phone in that's the only way I can get it activated... I'm confused how people are getting sprint/alltel phones to work on verizon if the ESN isn't in verizon's database?

I'm clearly missing something here... I did all the steps in that thread and if I do *228 it says welcome to verizon bla bla bla but it basically gives the finger when I try to activate.. well duh.. verizon has to have the ESN in their db.... what am I missing?!

call them back....tell them you bought the phone from a third party and that party already has it provisioned for VZW and you need them to activate the ESN so you can do over the air programming
