Yes. Just like gsm phones, the phone number is stored on the sim cards in verzion lte phones. When u activate a verzon lte phone it is just like att when it first turns on. The phone does not dial *228 to activate. It automatically pulls info to the sim card. They even say don't provision your lte phone like you would a cdma phone because it would burn the sim card. In theory Sprint LTE sims should work the same way. I tried it with one of our demo phones where I work and it did work!
