Default [Q] Mesmerize vs Fascinate ROMs

I don't mean to start a riot here but does anyone know how to (or has the links to) put a Fascinate ROM on a Mesmerize device?

I know there are huge risks by trying this & if done incorrectly can lead to a headache. I'm a risk taker & want to have something new to play with & try. I googled around but all I can find is people referring to doing it but not what they did.

Also if you know how & don't want to post it publicly to avoid creating more trouble-makers a PM would be great too.

Thanks in advance for anyone that takes the chance of helping me.

How about the reverse? I've mesmerized my fascinate but have texting issues and only 1x data. I see it switch to 3g but never world when its in that mode. I gave uscc service. I can make and receive calls and receive texts. I've imported an apn.xml from my girls mesmerize that I flashed the froyo leak to. I've also used qpst to set my user and pass for data mimicking her during except using my number where applicable.Tia

Ok so I just started flashing vzw modems to see if I could make any progress and managed to get my txting issue resolved with DI01 modem. Still just 1x inet, no 3g.
Mesmerbelly, I'm working with a fascinate here not a mesmerize, but noticed you said uve flashed both provider modems to your mez. Can you think of any reason y it wouldnt be a 2way process. I appreciate all your help.

I am not sure but I'd say it works on the mesmerize because uscc roams from them anyway. I doubt that vzw uses uscc's stuff. Not educated just guessing lol. Also uscc has always used different text stuff. Same way back on tp2 for me

Default PRL

You I've done the prl update. Had to use QPST to originally flash an older uscc prl just to get it on the uscc network. I then did a prl update to get the newest one. I'm stumped, still happy though cause I got a new phone for free and the only thing that doesnt work is 3g access. This whole procedure has allowed me to alter my uscc account to have a mesmerize, so in a few weeks i can do an insurance claim and get a real one and just sell this fascinate.
