Verizon is a CDMA mobile operator. there are no mobile CDMA networks in Sri Lanka. If you want to use a mobile here, it HAS to be GSM.

So the short and simple answer for your question is no.

Do you have that phone in SL?

sill I don't have it. What about a GSM phone like Samsung Google Nexus S with Bad ESN? Can I use it here after unlocking?
thanks!

GSM phones have the IMEI instead of the ESN. I dont think there's anything called a BAD IMEI in Sri Lanka. :S

If that phone is verizon, you cant use it here. Verizon is a CDMA operator. So they have the same GSM phone models in CDMA. Check the operator and radio type before you import anything like that.
