Skip Verizon Activation

[A2Aegis]

EDIT: Sorry, my impatience just got the better of me. It eventually went through.

I left Verizon for AT&T, and have just ODIN'd back to a stock ROM due to some issues I was having at the time. Now when I boot up the phone, it goes to Verizon Setup Wizard, and immediately tries to activate Verizon service (with or w/o SIM card). It hangs at this point, so I was wondering if there was a method to skip the setup wizard.

I've seen mention of dialing a number in the emergency dialer (##778 or **226), and that hasn't worked. Any insight into this issue would be greatly appreciated.

From what I've read....you should be able to skip it by using the 4 corners method described in this thread:

Edit... This was posted by lacoursier18 in above referenced thread--

Skip setup using four corners....to bypass the setup where you select language. click top left corner, right top, bottom right, bottom left and it should bypass setup

Hit the thanks button for lacoursiere18 if it helps.
