Does anyone know what I would need to do to get a verizon branded 6700 running on sprint. I have found instructions for running another networks 6700 on verizon but that is not the best help ever.
I have access to one and I am thinking if I can get it to work on Sprint's network, install 6.1, and maybe even upgrade the memory (am I getting greedy here) that I would give up my mogul to run it.
I am not getting any replies at ppcgeeks.

i have a treo 700wx :software version treo700wx-1.11-rowen : hardware version A : It's a alltel phone now on verizons network, i need to change the software version to a verizon version, i'm getting issues, like i can make calls sometimes, (phone now stuck in "roam" but i'm having trouble with mms, and internet (1x sucks) i would like to upgrade to win moble 6.1. ( i have been using NightRaven's verizon bootloader with 6.1 on it) but i would like to have a "stock verizon ware". I have been doing some research and that a cdma verizon flash might give me the correct software version. I also experiance issues with "programing #228" so i figured the best way to fix it is to do a flash to verizon. is there any programs to do this.
I just upgraded someone else's Sprint PPC 6700 to WM6. I followed the instructions and it upgraded with no trouble. I made a *2 test call and got Sprint customer service. However, when this guy tried to activate his phone (it was bought off eBay) Sprint said that it couldn't be activated. They said it had been flashed to another network, but I don't see how that's possible. Should I have run a carrier CAB file or something on it? Please help, I'm fairly new to this. I upgraded my sister's HTC Dash with no trouble, but I'm afraid I ruined this guy's phone.
So...
1. Why would Sprint think it was flashed to another network?
2. What can I do to make it work for Sprint?
3. Is there anyway I can reverse the process, maybe flash it to the original ROM (and where can I find that)?
Thank you so much for your help.
I have a Sprint HTC EVO flashed to the cricket network. When I turn it on the sprint hands free activation pops up and wants to hook to the sprint network,
this also happens here and there after the phone is up and running...But not much....I was hoping to get this off my phone or disable it. Can Someone help me.
Ive gone thru all the threads already and have not found a solution. Thanks robozips

is HTC EVO good?
Im having the same problem.
I'm hoping this will be figured out since it's a major feature that will never get to be used.
I for one am using the ATT Titan unlocked and on a different carrier (Telus) and yet when switching it on it still asks me to contact ATT or dial 611 to use tethering.
I highly doubt calling ATT from Canada will allow me to use this feature. I also doubt Telus (who doesn't support non Telus phones) will be able to help me either. I also doubt HTC can do anything.
There has to be a workaround for this.
I have got the same problem using an AT&T Samsung Focus S on Rogers. there seem to be no way to remove this unless you get it dev unlocked and play with the settings.
but even that is impossible now since Chevron Unlock has been down for a while now.
its actually a feature i used almost everyday. im gonna give it a few days, if there is still no solution, im going back to my galaxy s2. as much as i hate android, at least when you pay 500$ for a phone, you can what u want with it.
I would think that for HTC devices, that you could use the HTC Connection Setup app to configure your device for your carrier and that should point it in the right direction.
Most other manufacturer's provide a similar tool for their phones and I would assume using those tools would also configure your device to work specifically on other carriers.
Otherwise, it would be something that you'd have to contact HTC/Samsung/LG to see if they can provide a tool or fix to configure your device properly.
I doubt they would help since they sell devices to carriers, they will tell you to contact carriers. I downloaded the Samsung Wireless manager but even though i use Rogers APN, it seems stuck on AT&T APN for the Internet connection sharing.
aside from this issue i really liked the phone, too bad !
I have the same thing on my HTC titan from at&t - amazing phone but the tethering is a bummer --> starting to think I should have got the HTC ultimate from Brazil - it has the same bands as the at&t one but doesn't have any of the carrier branding on it.
I'm going to give it some time - once interop unlock is available im sure someone will find a way around the at&t lockout - or at the very least we should be able to flash the Brazil rom onto our phones
My Surround didn't even get 7740...
Any ROM Chefs willing to bake in the Verizon Operator Package instead of the sprint one? I'd be willing to donate.
I've got three Arrives, and I have one of them on Pageplus. I like this phone better than the HTC Trophy, but to get MMS and true VZW EvDo, I'll need the package "baked-in".
I have the operator packages for Verizon if anyone wants me to upload them. They're in CAB format.
Anyone able to help? If so, PM me.
Thanks!

The fact of the matter is, can't you just use a rebaked Alltel rom? These "cabs" you have are probably for Windows 6.5. Sure, you can probably swap the operatorpkg out of a SparkW rom, but that might destroy any Zune updatability you have. I think the more reasonable choice is to use the Alltel operatorpkg.
As for getting EvDo working, that should just be a matter of getting the phone to program on Verizon (step one), and then using older methods of getting 10.key uploaded to the phone so you can generate a Verizon 3G password. I've converted a HTC Vouge from Sprint for use on Verizon before, and I'm also interested in doing this for an HTC Arrive (or Pro 7 CDMA). I've already obtained a HTC Pro 7 (on Alltel), but am unable to activate it at this time.
Perhaps we can work together to solve this issue. I want to make Gold_C roms eventually, but I need a device with service for testing first.
Hi, Xev!
I've PM'd you. =-)
I don't think Alltel used the DMU Authentication Method... but it never dawned on my to try it. IIRC, Android Alltel phones required the 10.key to be put in the DMU folder of the radio.
Let me know what you think.
I've reread your post, and I'm less concerned with Zune as I am with EvDo. =-) I'm not much on watching movies on a 3.6" screen, and the audio codecs in this phone aren't as good as its Android competitors. But... I digress. =-D
