Which carrier was the phone in question previously activated on? The brand of phone is not the issue, it's the network signal CDMA vs. GSM.

A CDMA phone will not work on a GSM network and visa Versa, next is phone compatibility with it's new home network.

For a clear answer contact a Verizon rep with all your information

Very few carrier's will activate a branded phone from another network on their system. There are or used to be a few exceptions, but I haven't seen any done in quite some time.
