Evo to Verizon?

So is it possible? I want to trade with a friend on Verizon for the Droid pro because I like that phone. So possible to just swap prls and pris?

Highly doubt each carrier will let users swap.

I can guarantee you it won't work. Carriers have changed the way they do things. Instead of having a "blacklist" of ESNs that are not allowed on the network, they now use Whitelists of phones that ARE allowed on the network. If you're phone isn't Verizon branded, you're not on their whitelist. Same with Sprint. The only method to do this is something even Voldemort won't talk about.

When did that start? This information would come in handy at work.

I thought CDMA phones were interchangable....like the way att and tmo can swap (minus the 3g).

I girlfriend wants the Iphone when verizon gets it. So thats a no go as well I suppose
