Pre Shown Running on Verizon

Pre Phone VerizonAn enterprising Pre user has uploaded a video to YouTube which demonstrates a Sprint Palm Pre operating on Verizon. While the underlying basis of this hack is somewhat common on CDMA handsets, it shows that there is at least some potential for using the Pre, even in a limited fashion, on the VZW network.

The user is currently able to get the Pre on Verizon and make phone calls, however the data side of things is not operational. The problem lies within a data provisioning check which is preventing unauthorized EVDO connections. The video demo is embedded after the break.

Thanks to PreCentral for the tip.
