Default Will I be able to keep phone if I switch from att to verizon??
Hi guys, my contract with AT&Tjust ended and I want to switch to Verizon, but I really really want to keep my
Moto T-720. Is there a way to get the phone programmed or decoded (I have no idea what it's called) so that it can be activated with the Verizon service? Does this process even exist??? Thanks!

Verizon uses a CDMA Network, whereas AT&T uses TDMA and GSM, so no phone from AT&T will ever work on Verizon. Sorry!

Sell that phone on Ebay, you can probably get enough money to get a good color flip phone like the LG Vx6000/4400 or the CDM8600.

Unfortunately, no. They work on completely different networks.

There is a version of the T720 for Verizon but by all accounts in the Motorola forum here, it's not nearly as nice as the T720 for AT&T.

The CDMA version of the Motorola T720 isn't so good from what I have heard. You might want to think about getting the updated version of it through Verizon Wireless. It's the Motorola T730 and users so far seem to be reporting that the T730 is a better phone.
