Sprint Phones on Verizon Network?

If you have a dual band, tri-mode phone, and you have the master subsidy lock code, then you can use it on Verizon, your profile says you have an lg 5250, that phone is dual band, but it is only a dual mode phone, will not work on 800 CDMA, so that phone you cant use on Verizon, unless you were in Florida, Minnesota, or parts of Texas where Verizons service is in the PCS bands.

 

we all wish those codes were easy to get. however you would have to fond someone with the comp prog to unlock it. Many usually will do it for a small fee.

 

Well, you have to call Sprint up and tell them that you want to change the phone on your account, they will walk you through the programming, but there is one thing, if you have a phone that has never been activated before, the first code they will give you is a one time only code, tell them it does not work, they will give you a second code, which is the MSL. There are a few other things to do to the phone to get it to work on Verizon, but getting the code is the big thing.

 

thats good to know..gues it will save some people some money

 

This is great. I was told Sprint phone do not work on Verizon network at all.

 

You can do it, it's just not easy. And most data won't work. but it's possible.

 

Who dug up this thread that's 3 years old! LOL

 

I didn't even see that. lol

 

Actually, Dual-Band is 800 and 1900 mhz digital only, it just means there is no analog.....

Oh crap, i just realized this was really old....
