Verizon OTA Programming

Hey Everyone -

We are going to start selling Verizon in a few months and I was wondering if the OTA Programming is the same as Alltel. I heard there is an extra number after the *228 that brings you right into activation. Thanks!

If you choose option 1 it will program the phone. Option 2 updates your roaming capabilities and option 3 would let you do an esn change OTA.

Be careful with this, though, it doesn't activate all phones properly in all parts of the country.

^ Never do it with smartphones. It can mess up their authentication.

We only really use that option for the basic phones.

I am not really sure how they do it I just know that most of the standard phones would get a signal from the towers and they would power off then power back on and they are programmed this is true because I was a sales rep for alltel
