Did I F' Up my phone by flashing it before activating it?
I traded in my mogul for the TP. When it arrived I flashed to copper rom then tried to switch numbers over. Oh my god sprint reps have no clue whats going on and tech support wants me to send the phone back because blah blah they making up ****. Basically I installed the sprint carrier cab it finds the sprint signal the MEID is correct but the EPST wont pop up... so we can manually activate it or whatever. When i do the epst.exe it wants me to enter an unlock code.... and holy crap i just tried to make a call and it said welcome to verizon wireless what is this?!

the unlock code is your msl. also try running this cab, it should update your profile for you. This update profile and prl cab is already installed on the stock tp. it will update and program your phone for you as long as the esn has already been swapped over.

Its giving me an error code now saying it's unable to connect. I tried to swap my ESN online and that was a no go as well... This is not a refurb just to clarify it brand new. Should I call back sprint and...?

*EDIT* im going to reflash to stock and see what happens.

just flash back to stock, activate, and reflash copper. Might take a little longer, but will work.

honestly it doesn't matter whats on your phone. weather its been flashed or not. if they can't swap the esn in the system then that is where the problem is. the software on the phone doesn't prevent an esn swap in sprints system.
