GSM imei/esn question

[Jcuervo947]

Hello, I have a theoretical situation. Lets say I cancelled my verizon contract and didn't pay the balance. Then figured out how to make my sch- I535 work on GSM carriers. Will I be able use the phone on straight talk with a bad esn from Verizon? even though GSM carriers use imei? Im confused on how this works. Thanks for the help in advance

Pay your bill! Should be ashamed putting that out in public!

If you don't pay the final bill the ESN is flagged of the phone.

Edit: reread your post. I think the esn is still with Verizon so it wouldn't activate. I don't know 100 percent though.
