I'll ask the (extremely helpful!) guy who got my Alltel TP working if I can share his information with others, or if he can notate my account the procedure. After that I'm willing to share my ph# or other information so others may activate.

I wonder if I take my sprint diamond to alltel, which I have a family member who knows the owner of an private store, and another family member who actually has alltel, so I could probably get my sprint diamond onto alltel for a few hours, then call verizon and tell them I have an diamond on alltel that a family member gave me and I would like to put it on my verizon account and see what they say

going near that location tomorrow, it's just over an hour away, might just give it a try

That has virtually no chance of succeeding. Until VZW has a way of officially programming and supporting Alltel branded devices they are not merging the databases. Even if you do get your Sprint TP loaded and activated on Alltel it will still not be loaded into VZW's DMD. You would still have to ask them to get it loaded which is what you have to do now so it would be alot of work for very little chance of success. Check ur PMs.

Try it. I doubt it'll work though sounds like more of a hassle than selling it and buying an alltel touch pro. The problem is Alltel is sending Verizon all their MEID's from Alltel phones and they wouldn't be sending your MEID because it's not an alltel but if you signup with alltel and port your account over to verizon whenever they complete this merger but thats even more hassle. Good luck!!

considering I am going to be on a family members plan if I go with alltel or verizon, it doesn't matter to me, as long as one of them will activate it, so if I have to stick with alltel, that's fine, would rather have verizon cause I already have the plan setup and new phone number, but have only had it for 2 weeks, can always return the phne and just get a new number with alltel

Should my sprint touch pro be able to hit option 2 on *228. None of the options will work and im not sure if it should

No, this will no longer work, actually i believe it used to be option 3. Either way VZW plug'd the hole and the MEID/ESN will not be recognized.

If it is already activated you can use *228 option 2 to update your PRL
