what i tried to say is that my sprint tp that is on vz only cost me
$80 monthly and if i get the VZ TP2 my monthly charges will be $100+

for example i got the premium with only 450 min
vcast has unlimited web and data for 79.99

and for me to have the vz TP2 will 793.99
and it dosent have 5000 text thats xtra 20
and ins is 7
mmmmmmm to much money lol


sorry if i didnt make sence.
but yah vz is expensive compared to other carriers
serivce is good but the repair center is too dam picky
wen it comes to replacing the phones any scratch it has
the will rejected saying its abuse

i pay 80 and my sprint TP right now is on with the Vcast and if i
get the vz TP2 from sprint they will change my plan and have to had 30 for
the data plan. vz has one of the worst plans ever

Ok if I read that right, you don't want to "upgrade" your phone as far as verizon "knows" so that you don't have to change your $15 dollar data plan to the $30 data plan. Now I understand, unfortunately I don't know how to do this. At best you are taking a gamble on if verizon will activate your phone, at worst you may be breaking laws by cloning the esn (according to some interpretations I've read.).

If you are cloning the esn to avoid paying for a plan required to activate a TP2 then you are breaking the law. See my earlier post for the citation to look it up yourself.

VZW wants you to pay $29.99 for the PDA data plan. You're circumventing that by faking the ESN of a different phone on the account. This is theft of services, hence why it's a crime.

regardless of right or wrong, not only is it a huge PITA, it's also technically impossible without the release of HardSPL. And good luck getting EVDO working properly. My friendly advice is to either suck up the cost or switch to Sprint.
