Sprint Service: Hybrid Phones
 

Alright, since Sprint doesnt have a large variety of world phones available (CDMA/GSM Hybrid) does anyone here know if phones from another carrier, that are unlocked, can be used on the sprint network with a Sprint Sim card?

seeing from your location that you are overseas at the moment...if you had your sprint roaming sim activated before you left the country...that would be a yes. but why would you want to use sprint's international roaming? it's expensive since they discontinued the sprint international roaming add-on plan early last year.

no its unlimited data int'l for 39.99 a month buddy... i dont use the actual "call" feature due to it being 5.99/min.... gtalk, email and texting is all unlimited though

Re: Sprint Service: Hybrid Phones
 

No buddy that add on has been discontinued....it is only available if you had it before sprint stopped allowing this service!!

Re: Sprint Service: Hybrid Phones
 

okay sir :) i know what i have on my plan and just had it added on in December, so whatever you say \\:D/ BTW why the anger? LOL

OP, you should be able to use your sprint roaming sim card on a sim unlocked phone. have you tried it yet? any reason why you won't use your tp2?

and you're right...i was thinking of the int'l data roaming add-on...sorry for the wrong info. how were you able to get it added on to your plan when it was discontinued in april of last year? because i was trying to get that added on before i left for asia summer of last year and they wouldn't add it because the CS said they don't have that anymore.

That's right CHIEF!!! That's what you get for leaving.

Mojary, i am not sure why? i had a BB with Simply everything + 39.99 add on....i then swapped to the TP2 and changed to unlimited data with 400 minutes talk time for 69.99 + the 39.99 add on after Christmas....

i have been a sprint customer for like 10 years, maybe that's why, i really don't know.

i had no idea they discontinued any plans as i really don't ever have an issue when i call sprint to get anything switched up/resolved. they are always pretty helpful, which is odd because i dont normally expect good customer service like that from such a large company.

edit: i dont like winmo is the main reason i want to switch phones... i really wish the evo slide was a world (gsm + cdma) but its not, so i need to look at other avenues. i like the touch screen/full qwerty, my preference, but there arent too many out there that meet that demand....

LOL! i didn't leave. im in lurking mode to check how much of a bad boy you're being...lol..j/k. nah, i check in at least once a day, but has not really posted much. work's been riding me good for the past couple of months, so i have not been able to spend as much time here while in the office. no time at home since im on homework when i get home from work.

ok now i get understand. you've had it on your plan before it was discontinued. and when you switched plan, all your add-ons was transferred to the new plan. if you already had it on your plan, you get to keep it. but if you cancel that add-on, you won't be able to get it anymore. so make sure if you change your plan in the future, to always tell sprint that you want this add-on (or all if you have more add-ons) to be transferred to the new plan. they usually transfer the add-ons to the new plan, but some sprint reps aren't that much smarter than a piece of lint.

but yeah...just pop in your sprint sim in any unlocked phone and you should be all good to go!
