I haven't heard of anyone being able to do this, though, I suppose it would be possible. They are both CDMA networks, but you'd need someone on the inside of verizon to do the dirty work, which, I would assume they wouldn't do (they would want you to buy a phone from them).

I'm looking at the link though, never heard of someone getting it done.

The link doesn't show how it gets done, I just provided that for him to read up on what others were saying ;-)

yeah, link pretty much says it can't happen. Which, after reading that thread, I realized it was one I've already read

well... this sux. i guess i have to go the boost route. for someone thats never rooted a phone... will this be a difficult task? i hear you have to buy a boost phone to use the msn number. is this true?

Not sure, mkelso has the definitive guide to [ Boost | MetroPCS ] and activating the evo on that.. Though, I can't recall which one --- it might actually be metro :\

I have an Evo 4G on Verizon $50 unlimited prepaid....don't listen to people who say it can't be done and get scared if the words MEID or ESN are used in the same sentence as how to get a Sprint phone on Verizon

We are for the most part sprint users so most of us do not know ways to switch to a different carrier with our EVO's.

People in here give a lot to contribute!
