No, you cannot "flash" anything to Boost. People who do this are cloaning clean ESN's, which is entirely illegal. Only certain approved Sprint models can be used legitimately on Boost Mobile, otherwise you'll have to buy a Boost Mobile branded device.

Oh come on, don't discourage the newbie. Illegal or not, way too many people do it. It's like telling him not to pirate, calm down.

It actually carries a more severe penalty than pirating and is definitely not the same. Plus I doubt that we're allowed to talk about the illegal activity of cloning esn's here on these forums. You don't see any threads here that teaches people how to do it, do you?

Interestingly enough... you can find them at some respectable sites, for example:

Notice the MOD NOTE at the top.

well yes you can without cloning an esn just take it in to a Boost mobile store and Boost will talk with Sprint to see if it can be used on Boost....the pre-requisits being not stolen and that's about it...
