I recently found a Droid 2 outside my house. Like a good citizen I took it to verizon and they said it was reported missing but they let me keep it.
Currently I use the LG Optimus V on VM and was just curious to see if it is possible to get help making the Droid 2 work for VM. I have done about a weeks worth of research and a few failed attempts myself without much luck, and I hear a lot of different answers on what's possible...any help?
It is possible, but extremely hard, only a very experienced hacker could do it. So hard that most people consider it impossible.
Hit that thank button if I helped!
I take it that's why no one has posted any useful tutorials for this kind of thing...is there anyone out there willing to help me out, cuz my optimus is starting to act weird even after a couple factory resets
There is someone that may help, he put the Evo on Verizon.

Bump. Looking for the same thing, thinking about trying to get a Droid 2 on VM US.
Hey, you guys! I've been stalking these forums for a long time and now I have a problem where I will need your help. Now, before I get slammed for it, I've searched these and other forums for what I need, I've Googled for hours and hours on end, I've emailed people, and I still can't find a fix to my problem. OK, enough complaining, here is my problem: I bought a Nexus S 4G a few months ago for only $120. I planned on getting it flashed to MetroPCS through their MetroFlash program. I went to their corporate store, and they said they couldn't flash my phone for legal reasons, but they directed me to a man who could flash my phone. I go to him, and he wants $150 to flash it, I say hell no and decide to do it myself. I'm regretting my decision now because ( A.) CDMA Workshop is hard as hell to learn ( B.) There is almost no support out there for this phone.
Anyways, I want to know, has anyone been successful in flashing their NS4G to MetroPCS at home? If you have, please enlighten me! I've been brain-****ting myself to make this work. Right now I'm stuck at the part where I write the ESN. I can read ESN, but when I try to write it, it says "Failed.. ESN has not been changed." I can read/write everything else, except for ESN. I have unlocked it through the SPC and the Internal Security Password. Another issue I'm having is that when I try to read the memory, it gives me an error message saying, "Process is stopped. Phone does not answer" "Process is stopped at: 0000:1000"
This process is too hard, and I call on the great minds of XDA to help me out! Please, all and any information will help! I will love you forever! Thank you in advance!
Edit: I'm using CDMA Workshop 3.8 Trial Version by the way!
Edit: I forgot to mention, everything in this thread is hypothetical and for educational purposes only.
For legal reasons xda forbids on esn hacks. I don't know where you would get help on this but post it if you find something.
Did you search youtube?
Why do you need to change the ESN? That's illegal anyway.
You can follow the Cricket instructions over at howardforums.

Yes I did, and I messaged several youtubers, but sadly no one wants to help me without charging me, which sort of defeats the purpose of doing it myself.

I need it to transfer the ESN from my MetroPCS dumbphone to my Sprint Nexus S 4G. I'm trying to get the NS4G to work on Metro. Also, can you please link me to or help me find those instructions? The search function over there is weak and I can't find anyone who has information on flashing a NS4G. Thank you so much for guiding me in the right direction though!

I think the point is that the process is universal, no matter what phone you have

I agree, the basic process is universal but right now I can't find help for my issue, and even in forums for phones other than the NS4G, I can't find anyone experiencing the same problem. I could use any and all the information I can get right now, because the NS4G doesn't have any readily available simple tutorials for it to be flashed to MetroPCS. There are tutorials for Boost, Cricket, and PagePlus, and I have tried following those, but run into problems with those as well. I'm at a dead end and need help
You don't suppose to change your ESN. You call your carrier and Activate the ESN on your carrier, all you really need to do is load Metro PCS prl.

My friend has an EVO flashed to MetroPCS. I thought it was neat. There is also a thread where someone went to craigslist to find a person to flash an Epic 4g. You may find something there. Keep us updated, please. And if you figure it out for yourself, more power to ya
i'm looking to do the same thing but not to MetroPCS... i have another carrier i would like to flash to but it's a new carrier and there's NO INFO online for flashing to them... and they're online so i can't go to their store to flash this... what info would i need to get this ball rolling??
Just pay to have it done by someone who knows what they're doing. I got my NS4G flashed for $40 including 1st month of service.

Sorry for really late reply, but if you're still having this problem, have you sent the SPC unlock code through CDMA Workshop yet?

Lol I had a forum member help me out with this almost step by step to the point where he helped me get everything working except data,, but I had to eventually go to a guy from Craigslist to get data working. I wish I could give him credit but he wants to remain anonymous. You know who you are! Anyways, I feel terrible for not keeping you guys updated I'd like to make it up to you guys by helping you guys flash your phones or anything related to phone flashing:thumbup:

Hey guys, I'm gonna be getting the Sensation in about 2 weeks and I would really like to help out development for the Sidekick 4G in some way. Since I don't have much knowledge in programming, I am willing to help out with giving a Sidekick to the devs here. I just got a replacement for my warranty so the phone is pretty much like new and I won't be using it at all. I don't know how much this phone goes on ebay, and I'm not sure if this is already been taking care of, but I'd be willing to help out.
Please let me know.

I'm looking for a loaner. See this post.
But, if any other devs think they can get CM7 or CM9 on SK4G better then I can, I yield to them.
Or if you are more interested in getting money for the phone, it's probably better you get money.
EDIT: Also, I'm hanging out on freenode on #teamacid and #sk4g in case anyone wants to chat.
Directions for #teamacid are here.

I almost feel like asking for help to hack the government is this some top secret stuff I'm asking for. Lol I know its out there some please help me out.
It should be the simple matter of acquiring an NTelos Sim card then inputting the correct APN settings.

Ive been Googling it I keep getting dead ends i ain't trying to get no one in trouble or anything if u can help me send me a pm or ill even give u my number if i have to the phone I'm using now is a piece cracked screen and everything
OK so i don't think ntelos uses similar cards so would I have to get an unlock code from Verizon for the sim that's in it now there's nothing that I would have to flash to switch it just the sim and the apn
Ooookkkk.
