Hello, I know someone that is willing to give me a great deal on a TP 2, the only problem is he flashed it to Metro PCS, is it possible to flash the phone back to Sprint and if so how would I do this? Please help. Thanks.

if its unlocked and was sprint branded. meaning it was originally a sprint phone yes its easy. But make sure esn is ok . if it is all you gotta do is unlock it. (which it should be if its on metro and was a sprint) then reflash sprints stock rom. activate the phone through sprint. then either leave it that way or flash a custom of your liking. btw below is a link to check esn to make sure its clear.
