lost phones are marked stolen in the VZ database.

The owner probably blacklisted the phone rendering it useless to others.

You could at least use the memory card though (for your phone or an R4).

If you really wanted to get anywhere with this, why the hell did you give so much information? You could have simply asked how to unlock a Verizon phone.

Anyway, turn that shit in - its just a fucking cell phone. A few hundred dollars isn't worth the trouble.

verizon phones can not be used on their network once they have been listed as lost or stolen, just plain impossible
it is possible to get it to work on other networks with the right knowledge, but a serious pain in the ass, and doesnt always work

havent you ever lost your phone?
if some guy had your phone sitting in front of him and decided he would rather break it then drop it off at the verizon store what would you say to him?

dont be a dick, it doesnt make you cool

maybe the csr at verizon will even be a cute girl who says "wow what a nice guy you are for turning in this phone" and then you can sex her up
