Is it possible to put the meid and all from my OM to an admire? And settings and all. I recently got an admire from a friend who didnt need it. Soo i was planning to give this to her while I start my plan with the Nexus lol.

lol unless this phone is stolen and hot(not condoned)... just go online, signup for the metro account online, then go to Change/Upgrade Phone.
im 100% sure its not stolen lol ^.^ due to the fact it was her previous # lol . I just wanna test to see if it would. If it does then thatd be awesome. If it doesnt then oh well. I move onto the nexus lol
Just dial *226 on the admire and say "switch phones" or open dialer and press ##626* and manually swap your min and phone number in.
Esn doesn't need to change.

the topic is digressing, sammyz has said too much as it is
(why I have my gmail allowed to be seen by anyone)
tbo, I wouldn't use any Google services to chat about that... It IS illegal to clone a phone, and They do keep your info indefinitely, even if deleted... same as FB.
If Google were to look through all the illegal websites people visited while signed into Gmail ......Google would be destroying itself
Allow me to Digress some more
It's not illegal... it's part of the terms of service that you agree to when you sign up with them, they openly use all of your info for "marketing" and "product service".
The difference of FB vs Google is this. Facebook is about selling your info and ever changing privacy policies so they can do this as best as they can. Google outright tells you they do this(like scanning your incoming e-mail for marketing reasons). And the problem is not them themselves(lul)... it's the people who ask for the information, usually in the form of a subpoena.
Don't Forget these two services, and the many like them are PROFILES.... on you ... and don't forget Googles motto, "Don't be evil"
Only you can prevent forest fires
Also I think that it really only should be illegal if you are cloning someone else's phone to intercept calls and messages.
If your cloning your own phone and you are keeping both,I would consider that not illegal IF it were my rules....purpose behind that would be for people that always kill their battery
Although I do agree with you on that matter, it will never be this way due to the cellphones design is to be a singular connection to the grid, thus allowing tracking...
Way back when Pentium III's first came out they had Unique ID's on the CPU, which could be called up from any website to track the incoming users. There was such an uproar about it that people didn't like being uniquely tracked that they offered bios updates to turn off the ID in the bios.
Now we all walk around with UID's.
I'm into lurking. When I first joined the only way to root my phone was with the LG updater tools. Pretty much right after 2.2.1 was let into the wild. Which at first we couldn't root cuz there was differences with 2.2 and 2.2.1, like with the 2.2.2 now. So I've been lurking since then. Only recently have I been more active due to having more free time, and a new computer that I can actually use instead of having to keep alive.
I'm still setting up my DevEnv due to my laptop having some driver issues, but I'm close to resolving them. I do have one setup in a VM, but i hate sharing resources... If I'm gonna compile i want ALL the power.
This is pretty much the only forum I subscribe to, since it has the best OM "support" by far. I've been soaking up the info here, but also anywhere I can find it. Even before Android, I've been a GNU/Linux advocate... who needs windows to watch Netflix...damn DRM...
and also, to the 911 comment... We openly give up freedoms for safety. It's been the same through-out history.... only when enough people get pissed do things change.
Basically im just going to try to put the meid on the admire if i can. If it doesnt then oh well. If it does then ill be a happy camper. wipe the om. and thats it lol. Im not going to use 2 have 2 phones so both have service lol. And if it doesnt work then its time to move on. Im just checking to see if its possible. Was going to do it if I got answers if it was but since this turned into a somewhat disagreement, Ive actually havent tried it at all lol.
