Can I change a sprint or telus carrier to Bell stock software fully. The reason I ask is I live in Manitoba and MTS really does not support the touch but they are willing to allow the use of the Bell version on MTS - BUT all the Bell Touch's on ebay sell for more $$$ than the same phone Sprint US version. SO If I could buy the sprint one and change it to the Bell rom and then have it programed by MTS that would be sweet and save me some $$$. And would the ESN information that is currenty on a phone matter or would it need to be a vaild Bell ESN do you think? [I'm not talking about a dirty ESN I just mean if the Sprint phone had a valid sprint ESN and I changed everything to Bell would the ESN work? or would they say it is no good for Bell as it was a Sprint one?] Any insight or help on this would be welcome. Thank you in advance for taking the time to respond. I'm sure you all will get to know me after sometime here, I am a freelance graphic artist and skin forum software and I plan to apply my skills to skinning the phone interfaces once I learn how.
with CDMA you have to be careful.... i would go and ask them if you were to get a sprint phone persay with the bell rom would you activate it?????? if they say yes gop for it and unlock the phones bootloader and flash that rom on over...... but make sure with them since som e providers (most) will not allow an outside phone to be activated unless your through cricket of course.... so double check with them and if they say yes your good to go.
