Sprint TP on VZW ROM Upgrade

I currently have a Sprint TP working on VZW with no problems. I would like to upgrade to a WinMo 6.5 ROM. I had done this in the past without activation issues. The only issue I had was that text messages were being sent multiple times.

Since my phone is already activated and in VZW's system can I do a complete 100% wipe of the phone, add the 6.5 ROM of my choice, and not have any reactivation issues?

Yep. Flashing doesn't change the MEID or ESN or any of that super important stuff. Doesn't change the radio unless it is a factory file. You won't need to do anything to make the phone work afterwards either.
You may have to install your carrier cab to get MMS to work right.
Anyway, Have fun!

I had flashed it previously and remember seeing something that if you hard reset and erase everything that you will need to get it activated again which is becoming difficult now. I just want to make sure that when I do a COMPLETE 100% wipe of the device, install 6.5 ROM that I will not have any activation or text message troubles.
