How do you flash a sprint phone over to boost mobile?

I like boost mobile's plans, just not their phones. How do I flash over a sprint phone to work on the boost mobile network ?


Simple, you can't. Boost uses a different standard than Sprint does. Boost uses IDEN (aka Nextel), and Sprint uses CDMA.

Actually boosts unlimied plans use CDMA NOT IDEN

United States

As Boost Mobile is wholly owned by Sprint Nextel they run on both Sprint's CDMA network and Nextel's iDEN network. Unlimited by Boost is designated for the CDMA handsets, while PayGo is for the iDEN side. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/accuse_write?qid=20090116162258AAe40mt&kid=FsMpCDe9BTFfsGioORosJ71M6dYT94QweaIQigryxylkYmKKjKt1&s=comm&date=2009-02-04+20%3A10%3A23&.crumb=

at this point sprint #s can't be ported over to boost mobile, and 'flashing' a cdma sprint phone to boost mobile isn't offered
