Default Is it possible to take my verizon cell number and switch it to a non-verizon phone?
I have the razr V3m from Verizon (NYSE: VZ) and my screen broke. When i turn it on its just white. i can make calls and get txt and everything! I just cant see the screen on the outside and inside. My friend has the rumor from Sprint (NYSE: S) and its just chillen in her room, cus she got a new phone. so, i was wondering if it is possible for me to take her phone and transfer my number and plan to it. If ne one knows the answer or is in the same predicament, leave your answer! please

If the Sprint (NYSE: S) phone is unlocked to where another carrier can use it then yes. Other than that, No. You may be able to go to a sprint store and they may unlock it. Good luck with that though.

her phone is not compatible with verizon... maybe you could hack it or something like that kid did with the iphone... but i don't think you can even do that with verizon. sorry.

I believe that there's a federal law allowing you to keep phone numbers if switching carriers.
