*2 will only work on your phone if you have sprint zone installed. I don't believe it comes on CM7.

Don't work

try Roaming on verizon, then try again.

*2 is a short code that's programmed into the base, which CM does not have since the Sprint apps are not present in the base.

Well thats the main number for sprint. If that isnt working, there is a problem with your phone. Try flashing back to a stock rom.

WORK
Just be a little creative. Download a rom that comes with it as a removed/optional apk (MYN Warm 2.2 does for sure). Unzip the rom, find the apk & push it to your phone with adb:
adb devices (just to make sure it's connected)
adb mount
adb push srintzone.apk system/app/
adb reboot
Done
or just mount your sd card and place the apk file in a random folder and find it in your file explorer (download es explorer from market if you don't have one). just click on it in file explorer and it will ask you to install.
Honestly if you've flashed enough roms on your phone more than likely there is already a folder marked optional/removed that has it. I usually wipe most unused things but I keep a couple of these folders just in case.
Does sound like something may be wrong with your phone though if it isn't dialing a regular phone number.
Good Luck
EDIT: Excuse me for this. Doesn't work on AOSP roms, only sense. Sorry buddy good luck though.

I had same problem ...dial 611 and that will work ...

Official Nfl app for verizon working on epic! NOT working anymore!

NOT WORKING ANYMORE.
I dont believe we will have a working version. the season is almost over and the newest version hasnt been cracked. if it does get cracked i will reupdate the post, but as of now the number changer isnt working.
Here it is, works as-is on my epic, got it from a diff thread on xda
nfl apk
(update 10/27) VIDEO WORKS ON WIFI ONLY!
Will also work on any other android phone!
All credit for this is given to xeudoxus. All I have done is reposted his work.
NUMBER CHANGER DOES NOT WORK RIGHT NOW... will update op when new number changer is up, i am removing the links to old numner changer as to avoid confusion.
Number changer not necessary right now.
apparently the app requires a verizon number which currently the hacked version has a number from a tester phone from a vz store. There is a phone # changer software that u can use a vz number from ur local vz store and it probably will not require updates as often. i will link those here. Not neccessary unless app has stopped working!
nfl app phone changer
[links removed pending working changer]
Instructions! [Credit to rugedraw!]
1) Place the unlocker on desktop, and the nfl.apk on desktop, too. (both files are in the same directory, so no need to go placing them in folders)
2)Then, run the .exe.
3)Enter the phone number, type "y" for yes and hit enter. Once the file is done (the command prompt screen turned green on my PC), I just clicked and dragged the nfl.apk file onto my SD card and installed it with Astro. Al so, I uninstalled the previous version before installing the new one.....not sure how much of a difference that makes, but I'll put it out there.
Thanks to Rugedraw who kindly wrote out instructions for us.
I recommend going to a verizon store and getting a number from their demo smartphones.
YESSSSS!!!!!!

How long does it take to install...
Maybe a dumb question, but did you guys flash the zip file or how did you get it on your phone? I tried flashing it via Clockwork, but it just hangs on "installing update".
I opened up the zip file and didn't see the .apk in there. Did I miss something?
Help.

U dont flash this, just dl it from ur phone and it will open as an apk, or dl it, drag to ur sd the whole file and when u open on ur phone it should open as an apk. If it shows as zip on ur phone for some reason then rename in astro file explorer with a .apk

so when sprint fell out of grace with the nfl they lost the official nfl app and the rights to stream the nfl network, ouch. I am trying it out now but it is taking forever to load, I wonder if this is better than the sprint football app. I am thinking the NFL app is not gonna work with 4g.

How do I get Nascar APP on SyndicateROM Frozen

I seem to either be one of the very few that wants the NASCAR app on my phone or just not be able to find out how to get it.
I recently got SyndicateROM Frozen working on my phone and the only stock app that I would like back is the NASCAR one. I've tried downloading the .apk file and installing it but I keep getting an error saying NASCAR is only available for Sprint and Nextel users. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
if you want that app try looking into one of the stock roms zip files and pulling that app out of it and placing it onto the sdcard on your phone and then install using my file or astro
Exactly just search for the apk and install it with astro or root explorer. A good.place to look is in a stock rom file under system/app
Sent From My Evo Killer!
Hmm... I did something simular to that last night and got it installed, but it is still telling me that it is only for Sprint or Nextel users and won't let me run it on the rooted phone.
Had similar issue on moment
A lot of the custom roms change the carrier name to the name of there rom instead of sprint. So the program thinks you are on another carrier other then sprint, in order to fix that you need to change the carrier name back to sprint. I think it was in the frameworkres file if i can remember correctly.

That coule be a good possibility as well. I guess I would have to do a trial and error with that seeing as I cannot post anything in the op for the rom yet.
Though there isn't that many files in the in the frameworks folder but none of them named Syndicate or somehting simular to know what to change.

You need to decompile the apk with apkmanager or apktool. extracting the apk ain't decompiling it

Search the market for Root Talk Installer, it contains the fix to get it working.
root 1.3 talk installer did not work for me. First it failed to backup, I went on anyway since i could just odin again and then after it downloaded it failed to copy to system. I tested root with sdx stock app remover and it worked fine.
I flashed this in clockwork from an attachment in this thread and it seems to be working, i still haven't made a video call yet though

Thats the problem none of my friends have video enabled so i can't just tell right away if it is working.
the interface that i have looks like that though and that is different than the basic one the stock rom came with.
If I tap my name i have the option to 'allow video and voice chats'

Thats strange All I did was this
Rename stock to talk.bak
try root talk 1.3 installer and fail
boot into clockwork and flash zip
reboot and talk was there and working.
one strange thing that happened in the middle after i had gotten rid of the old talk.apk i was still receiving messages and they showed up in my notification bar however clicking on them did nothing since i had no talk app to open.
edit: side note, it is dumb that talk doesn't synchronize across phone and gmail at same time like google voice does. ex: I just sent a message from my phone and it didn't show up in the conversation on gmail desktop.
I uninstalled talk (keeping the titanium backup) and then flashed it in clockwork. Nothing appeared after booting. I then restored the back up, browsed on the other thread for a while and decided to try another apk. Uninstalled talk again, flashed the second version, and still nothing. O well. I don't really need it and am fine with waiting.
Also tried flashing the latest zip from the Gtalk video thread. No joy. App works until you try to initiate a video call. Force closes.
EG22, rooted, installed busybox.

Has anyone got this to work on a stock rooted epic, all programs I've either don't install or force close when you try to do the video call.

Sprint visual voicemail T5.3.4.32 WORKS ON 4.4!

I just wanna share an apk with everyone. I restored to stock to grab a prl update (25017 is out) and decided to update visual voicemail, backup the apk, and try it on cm11.
It works just fine for me. Still get 9016 texts though.

most system apks wont install from you external sd card, move it to the internal card and it will install. but if you have it in system/app folder already, just reboot your phone and it should show up.
I thought that would be the case after reading up on it some more, but it still didn't work.... Found where someone had posted a zip file, and installed that, which did the trick.

google voice works just as good as sprint visual voicemail. and it can be used just for visual voicemail only.
I have 5,3,4,32 and it seems to be working correctly. I sent my self some VM, and it looked like it was working.
I know on an earlier version hangouts was causing an issue. The vm i left myself worked fine, but We'll see if that has been fixed.
