Either the hex or dec one will work as long as there the same amount of numbers..

Im in the process of trying to figure out how to make Verizon phones work on the Straight talk network, Its alot trickier then i thought but i know its do-able.
They asked for the HEX MEID, and an error message comes up on their side that says cannot activate due to marketing restrictions (Essentially saying they're gonna plow their foot up my ass and make me buy a Verizon phone). But I've read numerous people successfully reprogramming their Alltel phones for the VzW network.

For that reason I'm thinking about going to T-Mobile and getting a unlocked and jailbroken iphone. But people are asking for $300+ on craigslist. I can get a refurbished one on att's website but I have to get a plan...Which I'm iffy about. Before tax and all the other charges you get I'm looking at $100+/month.

I just need to find a few thousand people to rent out towers from a carrier and start my own wireless company. lol
