I currently have the Touch Pro, originally out of the package as Sprint mobile, then was flashed "professionally" to Cricket. Now I need to go the Verizon, I have downloaded and flashed the rom from Verizon (XV6850 MR1 Upgrade_v2.0), When it starts up I get the nice Verizon Logo, complete the setup BUT when dialing *228 it still attemps to connect on the Cricket Network. What am I doing wrong??? Help.

Need to actually flash it over to VZW. You'll need a PRL to do so.

Also, it may not work - I know Sprint will ONLY activate Sprint ESN's. Cricket doesn't care, they're just happy to have your business. I'd call VZW to ensure they will activate it before you do anything else.

I was afraid of that, when trying to activate the handset via the my vzw webpage, it does not care for the MEID of the Sprint handset. Anyone???

...call them and ask if they will activate the phone in your hands?
