So I did the unlock and put the new sprint rom on it. I then loaded the prl, changed the msl to all 0's. I called verizon to change it from my juke. They told me the esn is not in there database, she had to submit a form to try to get it changed, it will be some days if they do it at all. Is there anything I can do to get this to work on Verizon without them trying to add the esn and it possibly getting denied. I would like to get it up and running today. Does anybody have a way to fix this, that is in noob terms. Thank you in advance!
Yes, you can supercid it and then clone your existing esn onto it.

ok I attempted to clone it to my existing juke phone that I have active on verizon. When i change the esn I get no signal. Even when prl is loaded. When I change the esn back to the stock esn, I get a signal, but verizon won't activate that esn, they called me back and said its a sprint esn and they couldn't activate it. Man I am pulling my hair out trying to figure this out. Can anybody offer some help, or post the steps they used to get this working?
any help would be great

vzw hasnt fully made their system open yet. they wont accept an esn that they didnt sell. so no sprint esn will be activated. the only thing you can do is change the esn, but since that makes you not able to get a signal, seems like you might not be doing that right...
i don't understand what im doing wrong
You're not doing anything wrong. Verizon WILL not activate any phone on their network that doesn't have a Verizon ESN. The mogul will run perfectly fine on the network, but because it has a Sprint ESN, they will not activate it. Now...if you're trying to clone the ESN of an existing Verizon phone, that's a whole different story and is quite illegal.
I don't believe that cloning the esn from a juke will work -- because VZW knows the phone type by the esn. It seems that you would need to use an esn from a junk mogul
give it a try?
the phne should at least get a signal from that esn though. It gets nothing! Its like I'm in a no coverage zone
i just activated my sprint motoQ on verizon. they did not question the sprint ESN at all.
flashed a vz image and vz prl, and all is good.

is it possible to use verizon phone for sprint? Then use your rom?

I would love to know this. It would cut my bill by about 75%.
Asking the experts...
I have been reading and following the titan for some time and are ready to purchase. Looking at Verizon vs. Sprint for new device, Verizon is way more expensive. Looking at eBay there are many for Sprint and next to zero for Verizon.
I would like to bid on a "clean ESN" phone for Sprint, then activate on Verizon. Possibly even activate on Sprint for some time then switch. (I have under 2 months left on my contract).
I have found a few that are NIB for a seller and asked for the ESN. He states he gives them only to the winner. I say red flag, but does he have a security issue (I could clone it??)?
And from above, could I do the double activate or if Verizon says it is clean only do it there?
Thanks.
I am also trying to do this. I have the cracking 6800 package, followed the instructions and was able to get the cid to all o's, although i am stuck in CDMA workshop and cant change the ESN because i am not sure what port to connect on( i have tried all them no luck) Anyone with any ideas would help me out alot. Also if the phone is currently unlocked with 2.4 loader but has the sprint 3.35 radio is it safe to flash to a stock verizon rom? Do i need to even do this? I have flashed with a custom rom then selected verizon as my carrier but in EPST config it still shows SPCS.

Can someone please help me I have a Touch Pro for sprint, but I recently changed to US cellular. Is there anyway I can use my phone on the US Cellular Network?
Probably not.. they only allow US Cellular branded phones on their network.

im a noob when it comes to flashing to another carrier. i have flashed over to the us cellular rom, but still get sprint when i dial out.
Load the latest PRL
http://corolada.com/prl/
I'm not sure if US cellular uses DMU key authentication, you might need to change that too. (i doubt it, but search google or something)
Also search google for threads on converting a sprint TP to verizon and you might find steps on how this is done although its a diff carrier.
does anybody have the DMU setting for US cellular or know if they use it?

no a key used.
for the settings check out http://sites.google.com/site/victorbush/htc-6800-1/epst-data-settings
The problem you will run into is that until they add your ESN into their system, no matter what you do the phone won't work on USCC.
Customer support won't activate a phone with an unknown ESN, they will require that you go to a store, and unless you can find a store with a tech who doesn't mind breaking the rules, you will never get it activated.
All roms for the most part are mostly universal, so putting on USCC's rom won't help, because the phone doesn't physically say USCC on it, when their actual phones do, will basically make it impossible to get accomplished.

I am receiving a US Cellular Touch Pro on Monday. People at the main US Cellular told me to buy one on Ebay lol. Well I did & will have the settings. Cant you just call in & give them the new ESN?

they do have a (white)list of their 'GOOD' ESN numbers, since HTC customizes the phone for them and will provide them a list of the ESN numbers sold...
YMMV to get a tech to activate an unknown ESN number... the system may not even allow it if it doesn't match the whitelist
im actually really interested in this... for my old Titan however, my sisters phone broke, and shes broke as well (har har), my old Titan still works fine, I want to give it to her and activate it on USCC but am running into the tech problem...
I second the interest, I have a Verizon Touch Pro that I am going to try and activate on US Cellular, the settings would be fantastic.

would this work the other way around (us cellular to sprint)?
You may have luck with USCC if you get a nice tech.. but you can NOT activate a non-sprint phone on sprint.. period... they are very particular about that.... & if you want a chance of activating your phone on USCC, have it all programmed for them before you even take it in.... that way they will see no major work needs to be done, and presto!
I have unlocked the phone using the multicolor bootloder.
installed a vz rom, the esn has been repaired to a current vz phone, the meid has been wiped to all 0's, the spc code is 000000 like needed.
also set epst settings like found on a post on ppcgeeks
public dmu key?
the .prl is now 51099 - *228 .... option 2...... "Im sorry but we are unable to program your phone at this time"
HELP!
edit: currently bettin its because im lacking a data plan.
ok i have to first state the this is illegal which is stupid but if you were to get it to work you would have to clone the imei from a currently working verizon phone to your sprint touch pro... you'd then have to call customer service from the verizonized touch pro and tell them that you need a new a-key... once the phone is verizonized don't ever use any of the *228 options... pm me if you have any questions

uhmmm... imei only applies to GSM phones. CDMA phones have either ESN or MEID (pESN). As far as the legality of the issue, it is done this way to prevent fraud.
You are correct about the A-Key though. However, if the OP is going to go through the hassle of calling VZW, he might as well just ask for the NAM parameters directly (MIN, MSID, and HomeSID)

Did I do something wrong? I went into the metro PCS store and asked about putting my ESN in the database and they looked at my like I was speaking latin.

Unfortunately no, I see it does replace a framework, but that isn't even part of thr problem I am having. When I asked about metroflash at the authorized dealer they didn't really have a clue was I was talking about. But I'm going to the corporate store today to get the metroflash done. Should still work right?

Just got back from 7 metro PCS stores including a corperate one, appears they refuse to add my ESN into the system, or even add a line for this phone. They will NOT metroflash it.
And apparently "All these kids are learning to unlock their phones and they want to add them to our network"
I have the $50/m plan that is required for smart phones. I searched metro pcs esn on craigslist nothing came back. I now have NO idea how to get this phone to work...
EDIT: I just tried doing *611 on my 3vo after "flashing" it to metropcs and it takes me to sprint's customer service. does that mean I did it wrong?
Just go to a dealer store. Most corporate stores stores dont wanna do smartphones(some will). But if you go to a dealer store they will houdini your phone. Which is where they write an esn from a phone in their inventory to your phone to get it into the network.When they flash it it will do the prl part for you. And if you already have the data provisioned everything will work from the time they flash it.
Reflasing on Sprint Data not working
Sorry not to hijack the thread but I think someone here might have the expertise to help me with the issue. I have a evo 3d that was flashed to Metro. I wanted to flash it back to Sprint, I cleaned the esn. Voice and txt works but data does not. I keep getting error code 67. upon more research i found out that i needed to copy NAI and AAA and HA secrets. Which I made sure were correct. However, I still keep getting error 67. Can anyone help me on how to get 3g data working? thanks in advance.
So are you trying to set up for metro or sprint?

trying to set up on sprint...
after fixing the clean esn and meid, my voice and sms worked fine...
data not working not even 1x. copied over the profile 0 and profile 1, including AAA and HA secrets but still does not work. When i tried hands free activation, i keep getting error 67 and profiles are wiped out.
Yea that error is because your not connecting to data. I know sprint you can zero out the ha and AAA. Where you used to have your metro msl code that needs to be replaced with your meid hex. Your gonna also need to make sure your sid/nid are those for Sprint. I do now know those off hand. One thing you can try to get those settings back is flashing a new radio it will contain the nv items you need for those spots.

That's what I thought I did, The in Evo 3d, using QXDM, i set addresses 465, 466, 1192, 1194. one of the user id was my [email protected] and another one was [email protected]
AAA was 'secret' and HA secret, i copied over from the old working phone.
Just to try I also did, ##SPC# (SPC= my spc code) and reset my data, after it rebooted the phone it tried doing hands free activation but it would error out again...
i feel like i am so close yet little further from working outcome..
Yea I'm not familiar enough with sprint settings try asking some of the people in the boost flashing threads they will know all the sprint settings. You have a sprint prl right? Not one of the hybrid ones to roam with vzw

It is not the latest PRL, but should it even matter which version i have? i thought PRL was only for roaming settings?
That will make all the difference when it cones to calling customer service if you have a metro prl it will call metro Ect. Ect. But sounds like you got that. There's threads on flashing back to sprint do an advanced search here and if its not here its on android forums it might be for EVO 4g but settings are the same on 3d

Only 1 metro store within 20 miles will flash my phone.
And they charge $63! I could just buy houdini master key for 50!
They also said that they have never successfully flashed a EVO 4G...
Can some1 sorta explainthe process of flashing to metro i had my Evo flashed by a guy that im sure knows what he is doing and everything went smooth. Now my sis and bro both got themselves Evos but this dude keeps on givin the run around and switching up the prices one phone was already being used w. Metro when bought but he insists that it needs to be "reflashed" (since its been on metro b4 wouldnt he just have to activate it to the existing acct?) the other has never been flashed. what im mostly wondering is, besides adding the esn into metro network is there anything else that MUST be done by a metro dealer? Is this thread for actual flashing or for provisioning like bloody's guide?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
You won't find any guides that truly show how to flash. Technically all the guides here do show you how to flash them. But metro is using a differnt method to flash now. So its not as simple as giving them your esn to have it added. They write an esn from a metro branded phone to yours. As far as the one that was flashed already all you need to do is call metro from it. Then provision the data from bloody or jds guide in order to get web and mms.

i nevered seen this little guide right here... haha....
what happens is this,
msid 9412333323 or 9412340237 or 7272271341
u can use this number i think, any metro msid number near u. i had these saved, from my new evo, and old touchpro,
u have to use a metro number for it to connect or something...
I did both of the following steps..
I did bloodys provision and at the same time i looked for the msid num.
in qpst u need to go through all the pages, i think i found the old number in 2 or 3 spots... if its a number change..
in DFS...
MIN A = USE ur 10 digit phone number,
MIN D = USE the msid number,
add any metropcs prl and u should connect to metro before any flash, change ur number or whatever...
i manually flash my 2 evos, but the 1st metroflash to add the esn, the internet and mms worked out the door,
The second in ebay 45 to add the esn, then I dialed *228 and it worked..worked on the first shot,,, after it was added.. it was activated with my acct.. yeah..
