First, I want to say thanks for the help from my previous (first) post. As my second post goes, feel free to contribute your .02.
I'm going to south korea in a month or so for a while and I wanted to take my t-mobile samsung vibrant. I heard about something called a "whitelist" or whatever but I would really like to use it there. I'm currently running a rooted, Axura flashed vibrant and fell in love with it. I really don't want to pay the high cost for a nice smartphone in Korea so keeping my phone would be ideal. I was hoping there is a way for this to be possible if I unlock or flash it somehow or tinker with it. Thanks in advance and MERRY CHRISTMAS!
I just saw some threads sayiing it wont work and will..... Hmmmmmm

Hey peops

No Problem.
HOW TO FLASH Fascinate to Straight Talk
OK I already see that I am gonna get blown up with PMs about flashing to Straight Talk and how I did it.
First you must have a Straight Talk phone of your own if not I can provide you one.
PM me for more details about that.
You are going to need the 16 digit password:
PM me for that as well.
Then you will have to the MEID and switch it to the Fascinate.
NOTE<<<<<YOU MUST THROW AWAY THE STRAIGHT TALK PHONE AS IT IS ILLEGAL TO HAVE 2 PHONES ACTIVE AT THE SAME TIME.>>>>>>
I am not responsible if you break the law. This is your warning. I flash phones for a living, MetroPCS, Boost Mobile, and Straight Talk, and this is how I keep my hands clean.
Then once you do that reboot the phone and dial *22890
Let the phone activate and reboot.
Once it reboots make a call to anyone. It should ask you to hit the number "1"
Do so and the call should go through
Then hang up and you should have working Data.
Nothing else test everything and don't forget to thank.
Enjoy!

It depends on what 2 Androids you have. But the answer is yes you probably can.
let me start off by saying sorry if i am posting this in the wrong section. I am just calling of for help from my xda friends.
By saying that, i am looking into buying another Evo 4g for my GF witch has a ****ty blackberry for verizon i was wondering if anyone has found out how to flash it over to verizon. now i have done some research and have seemed to get no where. many people said its illegal to copy the esn. that maybe yu can mirror another verizon phones prl. im just stumped on the whole situation. quite frankly idc what kind on htc or android phone it is i would just like to be able to flash to verizon to make her happy. i would really appreciate it if someone would help me out with this.
Why use a evo on verizon? ThunderBolt would be much better and should be able to get for the same price.
Yeah, my boyfriend wanted a phone "like mine" but refused to switch to Sprint. He travels a lot and needs decent speeds. He got the Thunderbolt & it's similar to the Evo. Comes stock with Sense 2.1, but it's still on FroYo. There are Gingerbread roms for it if that's what you're looking for.
It's a newer phone than the Evo but has about the same specs as the Evo. His phone stock matches mine rooted performance-wise, but his battery life is worse than mine.
I think getting a Thunderbolt would be a lot easier than trying to use an Evo on Verizon.

Verizon will NOT activate a non-Verizon device on their network. Period. If you choose to clone esn and such illegal measures, you do it at your own risk. Why go through all this trouble and risk being prosecuted for breaking the law when you can just buy a Verizon phone instead? Doesn't make much sense.
Honestly don't like the thunderbolt and the illegal stuff there are ways around our ii kno it. Was just looking to see if anyone knew them.

I apologize in advance if this topic has already been approached, I did a quick search but couldn't find anything.
My twin brother has been wearing me out to research if there is any mod to remove TMobiles data throttling on his Moto Defy... I currently have a Verizon HTC Droid Incredible and we currently have a flashable zip to remove any throttling...I realize the Incredible is CDMA whereas the Defy is GSM and I'm not sure if tmobile throttles the defy from their end or if its something they enable remotely on the Rom... personally only handled the phone long enough to root it for him ,(he lives about five hours from me), hoping the devs here may know more about the technicalities of the Defy... any help would be greatly appreciated...and if requested I'd be happy to post the Inc. throttleremover.zip after gaining permission from the dev who created it...if the process is similar for the defy, it may be a good starting point...

Not any more, sad to say. It's now throttled on T-Mobile's end. You are out of luck. There used to be a great hack but it no longer works.
First and foremost, Thank you to all of the devs that put in their time and efforts. Secondly, I have a very good friend that works at a verizon store. I would like to know if there is any information that he can provide me(within reason) that would assist with the Verizon Galaxy Note3 bootloader unlock. Please shoot any questions my way and I will forward them to him immediately. Again this is ONLY for the Verizon Galaxy Note 3 bootloader specific questions.[/FONT]

I wanted to go back to stock with my note 3 after root and safestrap. OTA would not work even flashing back to stock through Odin left behind custom symbol at the Samsung screen but updating through Verizon worked with no issues no faild updates. while doing this I noticed a series of numbers and letters going on during the Verizon update process. with no real knowledge of how anything works admittedly I feel like the correspondence during Verizon update via computer may help someone who knows what to do with the information

I think we should all write and ask us to help http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=3682533
he helped owners note 2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2045563
But the note 2 had a exynos processor...thus is a qualicom processor with supposed e fuse and knox...He is a mad genius though....but I would say safe strap is the best unless someone leaks a engineering bootloader like they did for the Verizon s3 with snapdragon/qualicom
