It's blacklisted, you won't have service on it. Sprint will not activate it. It sucks that it is CDMA. GSM you can jb, unlock and use on a different carrier. Sorry.

Yea, it is no good on Sprint for a while. You can however flash it to some regional carriers (Metro PCS in Florida) and sell it via CL
