Okay, yeah then it should be fine, the devices are simular. Do you get the American roaming network? And it doesn't hurt to make sure your ESNs match...

Yeah *228 won't work because the PRI is different. If you flash a stock Verizon ROM, and let OEM junk run, the PRI will be Verizon. I can help you configure MMS, send me a message.

I tried to flash a qwest phone with a stock vzw ROM and let customizations run and it didn't change the PRI. The PRI on my Qwest 6700 is 1.10_012 and the PRI on my Verizon XV6700 is 1.09_002. Is there a way to manually extract the PRI file from my Verizon phone and load it onto the Qwest phone?

How many times did you let OEM stuff run? I forgot to mention that it almost always has to be done twice. I mentioned that also in a guide I wrote for chaing the Vogue PRI.

I flashed it twice and hard reset three times for a total of about 5 times that I let customizations run and it did not change the PRI. Is there a way to change it using QPST or one of the other handy tools that I have? I tried searching for a solution but there's not alot of information on the PRI file at this time. Please let me know if you have a solution...

It isn't the PRI its the dmu & MIP setup. A sprint or any other PRI will work fine on vzw. You need the tutorial I posted a long time ago on using another carrier's 6700 on vzw. I had it taken down here due to people abusing VZW techs when they had trouble using their sprint touch pro on vzw. It may still be up at ppchaven.com under premium content (must register) under my thread.

Oh. I thought the PRI was what set *228 to work, as when the PRI was changed on the 6800 to a Sprint version, *228 was gonzo. I know any PRI will work fine, I have used several different versions from other carriers on Cricket and those work... but thought the PRI is what *228 uses.

Thanks for clearing that up.

The PRI and PRL are very different items not to be confused. The PRL does matter in the *228 as it will dial the ota programming for the specific carrier for that issued that PRL. The PRI is what restricts the gps on certain verizon phones as well as has many other radio level instructions.
