Newb question ...
The LG VX5600 is a Verizon Prepaid phone and sells cheap (Walmart, $15 shipped). It's on Page Plus Cellular's banned list. Is there any chance to get this activated on their network? I only need voice service. Thanks for any help or advice.

As of February 6, 2010, Verizon prepaid phones can't be used by "anyone" other than Verizon. Short answer is "no", you can't use it on Page Plus.

That is an honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer remember that fact.

Sometimes if used six months on Verizon prepaid then it will be allowed I have been able to activate some that way.

Is there an embedded model number (or something like that) in the firmware that allows a MVNO to filter these phones out? Just curious what's going on. Thanks.

AFAIK, it is the MEID / ESN that is listed with Verizon that places the phone in a "no-fly zone" as far as MVNOs are concerned. Same thing for Blackberries.
