i want to flash my phone
 

hi i think i might be posting in the wrong place but not sure anyways. i am wanting to flash my sprint htc touch from cricket to verizon.(moving and cant take the service but can not part with the phone) if any one can help me out here i thank you in advance.

Re: i want to flash my phone
 

Not sure if you can do that. Sprint is cdma and Verizon is gsm. I may be wrong but I don't think you can use cdma on gsm.

Re: i want to flash my phone
 

Verizon isnt GSM they are CDMA also so this can happen definatly. Just be sure to use a ROM thats either set up for Vzw or have a carrier cab for Vzw. I personally use JTs roms and he uses Vzw so they are automatically set up for the carrier but others like NSFans ROMs and others most always have the carrier cabs on the thread to download with the RRUs.

Not so much. In fact, you don't even have to change the ROM to swap carriers. He needs to change the PRL, then he can flash a carrier cab and such if he doesn't want to do it manually. BUt the most important part is getting them to accept the ESN, don't waste your time if you can't get that...

Thanks PDA, i read a bit wrong there and was thinking they were wanting to mod the phone too... my bad.

Re: i want to flash my phone
 

Exactly what I was thinking... I'm pretty sure it's still near impossible to get any company to accept the ESN if it's not in their database already.

There should be a way to do it though. I think it's required by law now that phone companies must let phones migrate to and from compatible networks. Just to confirm... Verizon and Sprint do both use CDMA technology so the phone is definitely compatible with both networks.

thanks guys i had learned how to flash my phone from here before thats how is on cricket now.=D>:headbang:

Re: i want to flash my phone
 

ok heres the thing i have already flashed it to cricket the only thing that does not work on it is the mms and so my question is that i have the gps working on it now and i have read that alot of people have a hard time to get the gps work with verizon what rom is the best for it and that has everything working right on it now. a big plus would be if the mms worked to.

thanks

I suggest NFSFANs 6.5 rom. I recommend you go over to xda and read and reread codybear's faq on flashing the Vogue. I'm pretty sure that the instructions given are for flashing to NFSFANs rom but still apply if you want another rom. Also, I highly recommend Whosdaman's roms. If you look in the Vogue Upgrades Forum you will find several roms. Happy Flashing!!!
