Seeking some quick advice

[mark3eb]

Hey guys,

I am new, so hello! I've come across a lot interesting information on these forums, so I decided to see if anyone has some advice for my current situation. (I hope this is the correct place to post about this).

I have a Samsung Instinct, which I love but it is not activated because Sprint requires the everything data plan which will cost me 40 more dollars a month. My two options are to somehow make the instinct able to be activated without such a plan somehow, or to get a new phone.

Although I really like the Instinct, I wouldn't mind getting another used for Sprint, however, many of their nice phones require data plans, and they don't have many phones I like...is there a way to use phones from other carries ?

Any suggestions that can lead me to have a decent phone without the everything data plan would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Mark
