Did you try flashing anyone of this odin one clicks? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903252
Can't tell what you exactly did to flash on verizon so why not just start back fresh on sprint? Ofcourse backup your stuff first..
I had a Droid X from Verizon that I had flashed to boost. If I wanted to flash a rom I had to put the rom I wanted on the phone, then have it flashed to boost. My point is, flashing anything rom-wise would have made it a Verizon phone again. Like doing a factory reset. If you did a factory reset, it'd load sprint stuff again.
Odin safe recovery
Wipe data, cache, etc.
Flash a modem (maybe not necessary but I'd do it)
Flash a rom
Enjoy.

Hey. I have an Ntelos Showcase also. Unfortuately I accidenly flashed a US Cellular ROM onto it and screwed it all up. I have an NTELOS or supposedly NTELOS rom back on it now but cant get data to work. Can u do ##data# on your phone and look to see what your user name is? i think its phone#@ntelospcs.net but im not sure. Any settings you can gather for me would be appreciated! or even if u know how to make a rom image from your phone so I can flash back onto mine.

Ok, so let me start off by saying that I am a NOOB and I apologize for that. I have a Motorola Atrix 4G on the Bell network in Canada. A while back I got the bright idea to try rooting and installing custom rom but unfortunately bricked my phone. Since then, I've got working again by flashing a different SBF onto it. I do realize that there is no way for me to get OTA updates now and the Gingerbread release just happened in Canada. Is there any other way for me to get gingerbread on my phone? All help is appreciated, thanks.
Oh ya and I've tried searching what seems like the entire internet to find something that can help me out. Just in case someone thinks I haven't been doing my part. ;-)
i recently flashed my samsung epic 4g to metro pcs and everything works except for mms (even the internet). the phone is also rooted but i am afraid to put a rom on it because i heard that there is a chance it could lose its flash. i am running android 2.3.5 and gingerbread.ei22. is there a metro pcs friendly rom out there?? thanks
From what I have heard, flashing another rom causes the phone to lose its MetroPCS flash. I hope someone can prove me wrong as I am trying to flash my Epic over to MetroPCS as well.
Also, out of curiosty, did you use this guide --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192128 to flash it over to MetroPCS?
yes
that is the guide i used, but you will still need to add your esn to metropcs's inventory. how? idk. but i ended up paying to get it flashed. they should knock a few bucks off since you did most of it. oh and if you follow the guide correctly and get it flashed by a store you shouldnt pay for internet just get regular talk and text because when i got mine flashed thats what they did and i still got internet for free. mms doesnt work though. hope i helped
edit: i also heard you can make a backup, flash the rom and if you dont have service restore and never do it again but im to afraid to risk losing it. if you try it (i dont recommend it) and it works please send a link to the rom. Thanks
my friend just got a gs3 today from boostmobile and he told me to root it and since i saw that the version was sprints the rooting went well. When installing the cmw recovery it gave so many options that i didnt kno which one to install so i installed the one that said us phones. Then when flashing the rom the 1st time i put it as if it was sprints it went to home screen but the camera wasnt working... my friend was pissed then i tried the metro politan us one thats and it changed the version of sprint of that company but im still having problems with the camera i just want to kno how to install it right or a rom thats stable for the boosmobile gs3 not stock android either or at least how to make kies download the proper drivers so odin can recognize the phone and i can restore it any help would be appreciated
I would suggest checking out THIS THREAD. Also, did you make a Nand before Flashing ? There may be some helpful info there.

No i didnt im soo F**** if i cant get his camera working or i rom thts stable for boost mobile and on the tread was kind of help but kind of didnt still answer my question
You could try freeza's Stock Rooted Rom. It may resolve your Camera issue. But I'm not sure about the other settings for Boost Mobile. If that does not resolve the issue, you may want to ODIN back to Stock. But again it may affect your Boost Mobile settings.
