(you should really do your homework before you make a statement like that.)
B. you still need ther carrier cab so it will work on your network. so you need the carrier cab, AS WELL as the rom to change to there network, OR you have to sent the phone to Tx to have VZN flash it for you.
C.no one said any different. as i stated, contact tech support and have the device added to there DMD. i thought i was quite clear on that.
D. you still need ther carrier cab so it will work on your network.
dont believe me? kinda strang i probably had one of the first non VZN smartphones running on VZN. i have been there, done that. i have an altell 6800 setup for VZN with a good ESN in there system. it was not a mistake, and i was very clear when i called that it was an Altell phone. 0 problems once i got to the correct tech.

Dude,
*228 option 3 NEVER said "to activate a non-VZW phone", it was simply another option for activating phones (upgrades, replacements, etc). And if this was because of a court ruling then why doesn't it still work hmmm? You do not "need" a carrier cab to get a phone working on their network...more nonsense. I have an Alltel Touch Pro (before the merger was completed) and once i got it added to the dmd I connected it to my VZW acct with the stock ROM after making all the necessary changes myself...no cab. It was only after getting it working did i flash another ROM. Also, no one has ever sent their PDA to TX and got it back with it flashed. Why? Because that option is only for a specific list of phones of which there is not a single PDA. And FYI, I don't need to do my homework...I have the information straight from the souce.
