| how does this affect CDMA ? i am wondering how this will affect phone flashing on CDMA carriers.
is it safe to assume that an SPC of '000000' is already considered unlocked?
changing the SPC would be illegal?
that would make flashing verizon postpaid phones to cricket or metropcs legal, but flashing sprint or verizon prepaid illegal.
or would writing a PRL of a different carrier be illegal?
or perhaps since setting data sometimes requires a bit of hacking on certain phone model talk and text is legal but data illegal?
i wonder if metro and cricket will just stop accepting flashed phone all together, although i imagine that would put most of the same mom & pop shops out of business since flashing is the one area they have an edge to compete against the corporate owned stores. |
