Thank you!!!
Wish I had found this tread a few months ago....

Thank you Altemose, for the guide!
I joined the forum so that I can thank you and share my experience.
I have a Verizon iphone 4s (out of contract for over a year) and I was able to port my number and activate my account with Page Plus a few months ago.
Not looking back!
Hotspot did work for awhile, and then started to use today and found out it stopped and get the infamous message:
=========
dunsp.vzw.com/newSelfProvisioning/SelfProvisioning
"Your phone is not currently set up to be used as a modem or mobile hotspot."
=========
Of course my Voice Mail stops working when I ported my number to Page Plus.
Here is what I did:
1) Installed Google Voice. But was not happy with the number of rings and performance. Callers would hang up before Voice Mail would answer.
2) Installed Youmail. Works Great!
3) Added Google Number which works in areas that my Verizon service did not such as in an apartment with firewalls and Wi-Fi. I used Google Voice and Talkatone, since changed to Hangouts when Google stop supporting third party IP apps.
So I have two numbers on my iphone 4S, each with Voice Mail
1) Ported Verizon number to Page Plus setup up with Youmail
2) Google number setup with Google Voice and Google Hangouts
Now if I could just figure out Hotspot again, I would be set
Thanks again, Altemose!
