Be warned, you are probably about to get flamed by people who assume a bad ESN means you are shady and/or stole someone else's phone. There are several threads where people discuss flashing from Sprint to Cricket. The status of the ESN is not relevant, as they do not share an ESN database. Just search around the forums and you'll find all the info you need to get it done.

Yeah, I was going to add to what Tripdub1 said about not paying your bill with Sprint and them blacklisting the ESN because I jumped ship from them long ago over billing isses and never looked back. In fact it was so long ago, it was when I had a Toshiba 2032 and a Samsung sph-i300

Yeah, I wouldn't go there if I was the OP either, but it looks like this thread is gonna face the worst of all feedback as we don't encourage anything about discussions pertaining to anything with a bad ESN as a matter of fact as well as any kind of fraudulent activity around here, which is why this thread is also shut down. This is not the proper venue to be talking or asking about any illegal activity at all.
