- StudentStuff 8y agoVerizon picks up that the IMEI of the device on the line is different than the one that is on file for your line, attempts to update it, and in the process of doing so breaks service on your line. You can swap over to a working Verizon supported device and swap back, but it could be hours to weeks later when you get this issue occurring again.
