I bought a nokia 6265i off the internet, but MetroPCS won't flash it because its esn was never in their system before(bull) due to it being with another carrier previously and never having been a metro phone. I'm willing to do without their firmware, so here's my question. If I switch the ESN from my current metro phone to the nokia, will the coverage go with it, or will I have to take it to metro for a houdini-flash then unlock the features using custom firmware? And yes, I know ESN switching is a legal gray area, but I desperately need a new phone, I'm broke and it's been more than 30 days since I bought the nokia
