EDIT: forgot to add that I have an unused AT&T sim I can pop into the G5+ to switch over to first if necessary ($10 minimum top-up required for this route).
Doh. NM
If u are only this BYOD plan, u would not be able to make referrals. Or at least I'm pretty sure they won't honor it.

Google Voice Instructions
I believe others are having luck by following these instructions:
Go to https://www.google.com/voice/b/0/unlock and unlock your Google Voice number, which will cost $3 and is payable online by card
Set a voicemail pin here https://www.google.com/voice/b/0#...ilsettings - you will need this pin in order to finish the porting
Good luck, I haven't personally verified this but others in the thread seem to be having luck
If you've never set your pin or if you want to try to change it, this worked for me:
Change your PIN
On your computer, open Google Voice.
At the top left, open Menu Menu and then Legacy Google Voice. Google Voice will look different, but you're in the right place.
At the top right, click Settings Settings and then Settings.
Click the "Voicemail & Text" tab.
Next to "Voicemail PIN," enter and confirm your new PIN.
At the bottom, click Save changes.

PORTING ISSUES
Beware if the port process does not go perfectly, as you will have NO WAY to resolve it. An email saying things were Successful, DOES NOT MEAN it was successful. You will only know once you insert your SIM card and it is unable to connect to a network. if you get that message, essentially you are fukked. You will have wasted money on a SIM/shipping, possibly screwed up your old service by issuing a port request, wasted a hard credit pull, and likely will have to fight auto bill issues in the future.
If your phone number doesn't transfer correctly, you will will NOT be able to setup an account. Calling Sprint (and being transferred to (3-4) other departments) will not help. At this point I have been asked to go to a STORE. Whats the chances things will go correctly there?! None.
If the number has NOT ported in the time telesales mentioned, call 888-876-8381
Make sure the account name matches where your porting from, otherwise, porting will fail and you will need to tell Sprint the name that matches the account. - swammer
Direct number to Sprint's Porting Department: (877) 503-3269 --bngguy
Activation problems with Sprint card? It's either a porting delay or if not try putting your Sprint sim and dialing ##8732834# - wait a bit then reboot. Phone rep told me this re-activates the phone or something to that effect

I guess their online activation system sometimes fails to create account, therefore it actually did not initiate the porting process. The first time, my confirmation webpage said DEFAULT_ORDER_MESSAGE, and this time it showed the confirmation number, though both times it said my free plan account has been created and showed the same pin.
You can try to activate your phones again online using a clean browser. I used chrome with several extensions for the failed activation, and today, I switched to safari after I cleared its history.
Good luck.
