Then your FaceTime/iMessage on your Sprint iPhone 5 will update with your phone number. I think as long as you don't turn off your Sprint iPhone 5, you will have iMessage/FaceTime with your phone number. Maybe you have to leave the unlocked iPhone 4/3GS on too. I don't know. There will be a fix in the future though. 4S Sprint unlocked works with FaceTime/iMessage without problems. I don't know why 5 doesn't work yet.
Nice trick, but does not work for me (
