vx 6700 on sprint halp

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.

[Q] Webconnect on HTC Sensation

Hey everyone, I apologize if this has been asked before. I did search but no result.
I have a webconnect plan from T-mobile with hotspot device but would like to use it with my Sensation.
My goal is to use Google Voice with GrooveIp on the webconnect plan using my Sensation.
The SIM works just fine with hotspot device but when I put the SIM in Sensation it does not work.
Is there any setting that I have to change?
Your reply is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Hmmm, so no one has any answer..
Well I just want to update anyone interested in doing the same thing..
The thing is T-Mobile is blocking Sensation's IMEI number from using this service not just Sensation but all the phones that T-Mobile has or had in their inventory.
I tried this on Sensation, MyTouch 4G, and Motorola Charm same thing.
But when I tried using the SIM on a non T-Mobile branded Nokia phone it worked fine. I could browse the internet and what not, even the sms worked just fine.
So I decided to take the risk and bought myself a Xperia X10i which I hope will not be blocked by T-Mobile and eventually I will be able to use the webconnect SIM in it and use Google Voice as my primary calling source.
Again, if anyone has any experience on this matter please do share.
thanks.

Hi Tatail,
If I'm not mistaken, T-Mobile's webconnect and their Mobile Hotspot services are little bit different.
webconnect is a prepaid service (3G data), and Hotspot is not (4G data as of now).
My guess is that your webconnect does not work with Sensation because Sensation comes with an official hotspot app, and no webconnect app.
Webconnect is not configured to work with HTC Sensation 4G, and vice versa.
I may be wrong, but I think that's the problem you're experiencing. Hope this helps!

Hi Tatail,
Just a quick followup. I talked to my cousin, who is a T-Mobile sales rep, and she told me the following:
The T-mobile hotspot sim card is configured only for hotspot devices and older 3rd party devices.
The hotspot sim will not work with newer T-Mobile phones because it's a complementary service to a voice/data service package from T-Mobile.
In an effort by T-Mobile to avoid people doing what you are wanting to do, they sim-locked their current phone lineups (for the last year she thinks) so that hotspot sim cards are incompatible with the phones.
Only way to use your hotspot service on your phone is to use the wifi from your hotspot device and connect your phone.
Hope this clears it up.

Virgin Mobile and my Evo 4g

Not going in to detail, but if anyone has any knowledge on how to, please hit me up. If you are going to post "its illegal", save it. Because honestly, I dont give a rats ass. Thanks.
It's against the law. lol
Just out of curiosity, how is it illegal?

Here is the short version. To unlock cdma phones, you need a donor phone to get the esn, meid, ect, and then clone them in to the phone you are unlocking. I guess cloning the ESN is illegal. And thats a must to unlock cdma phones to run on other carriers. I dont really know if its illegal since I own both phones.
I know a PRL code is needed... okay, I think a PRL code is needed. As far as I know b_randon14's mod spoofs it. Whether this is a functioning PRL code or not, I do not know.
As to everything else, you know more than I do already.
I can tell you how but I forgot which thread, so I would have to be digging through a whole forum section...
Also intrested in this...

Try looking in HowardForums' Virgin Mobile USA site (under Sprint Prepaid) if you haven't already. Their information is very good, although it doesn't go beyond anything too "illegal." I would recommend it as a starting point though.
I know how to get it flashed over except i don't know how to get picture mail working. I have a few ideas but no funds to try them out. If anyone has an Optimus V or Samsung Intercept that they are willing to mess around with I'd me more than happy to try to help.

You realize that even if you get the Evo 4G activated on Virgin Mobile, it's not going to be "4G" anymore?
I would wait until the EVO 3D comes out for Virgin Mobile, and until we actually have WiMAX setup and working (if it's available in your area).

I've had my evo for almost 3 years and I've never been able to use my 4g. The towns I've lived in had 4g but it was only one strip through the town and I didn't live in the area that actually had it. Only time I was able to use it was once in Las Vegas and it just drained my battery so its not even a big deal that you lose 4G. Sprint is abandoning 4G anyway and going to LTE.
Here is a link that should help everyone get their phones on Virgin.

It's nowhere near illegal or that hard to do. I've been using my sprint Epic Touch 4G on Virgin for a few months with no issues (many people have done the same. As long as you are actually paying for the service you use and not cloning someone else's phone, you're legal) . Yes I have no 4g but all the high speed web activity I do is at home on wifi. There is a step by step guide to do it. Just search "epic 4g to virgin" on these forums. It's not simple for someone who doesn't hack their phones but anyone who's had to jailbreak an iPhone should be able to do it. It took a couple of tries for mine to take as I missed a step. Be sure to follow the guide exactly. Google "epic 4g to virgin" and select the guide from groovypost.com if you want a concise guide with screenshots.
Virgin just lanched some wimax devices so i hope we can tap into that pipleine as well. Now to get 4g working...
