can i convert telus phone to work on bell

[poiuytrewq]

I was hoping i could get confirmation that i could buy a used telus touch, update the rom and flash it over to bell, i see many used telus touch phones and very few bell.Or for that matter even a sprint touch- convert to bell.
Thanks

I think you can, Bell just has to activate it I think

thanks, i hope its possible as there is about a 10 to 1 ratio of telus to bell touch phones- the telus phones are cheaper for this reason

Thanks for the info- what if i were able to copy my esn to the telus phone, does any one know if this would work - using an original telus phone on the bell network. I found a program that can change the esn, but i dont know if there are other differences that will made the swap incompatable with bell.
thanks

Should work technically, since cdma carriers lock their esn's in and that's why you can't cross network. But I do know to get everything working it wouldn't be as simple as changing your esn.
