Help Mobo swap between Boost and Sprint???

So I just irreparably damaged the screen and LCD on my GS3 for Boost Mobile. From what I can (kinda, almost, sorta) tell, it seems like everything is still "there" (screen is not 100% blank) which leads me to believe it's just cracked glass and a broken digitizer. Long story short, I'm looking for as quick of a repair as possible for this situation.

So, 2 questions:

  1. Can I pull my motherboard from the Boost phone and place it into a fully-functioning Sprint phone without issues? (found one in near mint condition on Craigslist)

  2. If not, can I use the Sprint digitizer/screen for the repair on the Boost phone?
 
UPDATE: Success! I was able to do a MoBo swap and everything is working just fine (thanks ifixit.com and PhoneDoctors). WiFi, calls, camera, speaker...everything! And now, I have a spare battery, charging cable, stock headset, and a clean Sprint mobo to sell. Win/win/win!
