EDIT: I may have put this in the wrong section by accident, my bad.
I've been looking for a solution to my problem for almost two months now and noting I do works. I'm going to simplify this for you to save both of us some time.
I've purchased a "clean" Evo 3D from some guy on eBay, he stated it was on Virgin Mobile, and when it boots up it plays the virgin mobile jingle, which is nice and all, but I can't seem to get it activated on VM. I had my friend call to try and activate it, and they said they couldn't for some reason or another. I'm starting to think it was flashed to another carrier, considering when I try to call someone it takes me to a Verizon Wireless helpline. How would I go about using this phone with Verizon, then? How do I know if it has been messed around with in CDMA workshop and has been activated with a rant and incognito, and what will happen if I call up Verizon and tell them that it's flashed? If any more info is needed, I'll do the best I can to provide it. I don't mind about having my phone on Verizon, as long as I can use it with pay cards. Here is all the info that I have so far:
I've found a guide to flash it to boost mobile, my current carrier, but my phone doesn't pick up in CDMA workshop.
