Help CAN YOU ACTIVATE A VERIZON NOTE 3 WITH CRICKET GSM

[Gloria Alvarado]

I PURCHASED A GALAXY NOTE 3 ON EBAY BUT THE SELLER SAID THE PHONE IS "NOT" UNLOCKED. CAN I STILL ACTIVATE THIS VERIZON PHONE WITH CRICKET/GSM BY JUST RESETTING/ADJUSTING THE APN SETTINGS? OR DOES THE PHONE HAVE TO BE "UNLOCKED" BY VERIZON FIRST?

Verizon does not lock it's 4g LTE devices

According to

2&3g will not be a problem. Compatible with only 1 4g LTE band.
