my guess is that you will need to be on sense, but i could be wrong. sorry man i wish i had the answer.
you hafta be on sense to update the prl... we know that to be fact. beyond that, not exactly sure. The biggest thing that ive encountered when reading about this is that boost uses sprints same physical devices, therefore the esn's should be transferable. I did read once about a guy who ported his number to boost via a crappy phone to get the service activated, then did an esn swap to the Evo. But beyond that, Im not even remotely sure man. Id search the forum quite a bit and gather some intelligence C.I.A. style and go from there. Best of luck to you, and happy holidays
if i'm reading you right, there isn't a rom that will "put you on boost service"... as far as getting your phone working on boost, that takes some "internal" doing, more than just flashing a rom...
Im half way through the guide to switch this EVO to Boost, when Im done will I be able to flash a Rom of my choice ?
yup. once youre on boost, the o.s. you use is up to you. Ive seen posts from users that have stated that. And as long as theyre not lying, then you should be good to flash whatever rom you want after youre on boost
your phone will have to be on stock sense rom.you will also have to have it added to boost network and programed by a boost employee or someone who flshes phones to boost..once you have it programed with talk text and data,your free to flash.
@OP: I'd believe what MikeKelso says on this matter especially (not that you shouldn't believe him otherwise ), because he's got a boatload of info on flashing to metro, and it would make sense that it'd be the same general process.
