Since Sprint and VZW are both CDMA networks, in theory, you should be able to use one's devices on the other's network. What it comes down to is finding a VZW CS rep that's willing to activate a Sprint device on VZW's network.

Yep. Ya need to flash to a Verizon ROM then call VZW to put the esn in their database.

Go there and dl GetSPC, run it on your phone, and it will give you your MSL.

FYI, when you plug the hex ESN into GetSPC, make sure to put alpha characters in caps.

Hey if for whatever reason Verizon refuses to get it to work, I have a Verizon 6700 that could trade for your Sprint 6700.

Have a HTC Mogul (6800) that's going in for service and a spare 6700 from Verizon that I'll be trying to get to work on Sprint's network.

Ya know what they say about using another phone on Sprint's network..."If it aint got Sprint on it, they'll NEVEr activate it"
