Thread: Activate Sprint Nexus S 4G on Verizon Wireless

Apparently, it is possible, what all do I need to do to go about this? Has anyone here successfully gotten a Sprint phone activated on Verizon Wireless? I'm well aware that the 4G won't work, but I'm very interested in activating a Nexus S on Verizon (Hell, maybe just for the lolz!) Verizon has a program called "Any Device, any app" or something, and basically, you can pay them $50 for them to send your phone to their (idk what its called) and they'll flash the phone to them if they find the phone is approved for their network.

I've been told I need to get the SPC, how do I go about this?

This one I've never heard of...I don't think it's possible.

Three options.

SDK method:

Connect phone to PC via USB.
enable USB debugging.

Open command window in /tools (or wherever you have the adb)

Type: "adb shell getprop" (without quotes)

Long list will pop up. Look through it and try to find "ril.msl" followed by 6 numbers, those 6 numbers are your SPC/MSL


On phone:

Download a Terminal emulator

Type in "su", hit enter, then hit allow. (requires root)

Type in "getprop", hit enter.

Again long list, look through there for "ril.msl". The 6 digit code is the SPC/MSL.
