Re: Any way to use T-mobile AND Sprint on the same TP2 at the same time?
 

My carrier has a service in which they "import" an existing account (or you can just sign up for a new one) as a second line (with a new number but sharing all of your actual plan's benefits) AND receiving all its related stuff in the same phone (calls, SMS, etc.) at the same time. So you end up having two lines but paying/sharing one plan (BTW, the extra line is a service paid in a monthly basis).

If I was in your situation (and I will as soon as I get a good deal on a TP2) I would move my T-Mobile line to Sprint but request to make that new line into this service I'm describing. That way I wouldn't need to pay for a line for which I only use the SMS and instead just pay a little fee for having it as a second line.

BTW, I'm in Mexico. If we have such service then Sprint surely could get something similar (mine is a CDMA carrier too).

Regards.

BTW, IMAO it sucks that you can not use the radio for having both lines running. This is an expensive phone, it should do everything I think it capable of. lol

did and everything looks works.
well, I have to manually switch back and forth, bit lets see if something else comes out that fixes that.
thanked post

Re: Any way to use T-mobile AND Sprint on the same TP2 at the same time?
 

Yes you are correct. If the Tmobile is not active, then the texts will not come through until you switch it back to the tmobile side, and vice-versa for sprint.

One question, does the phone need a soft reset to switch back and forth, or can it switch "on-the-fly"?

Re: Any way to use T-mobile AND Sprint on the same TP2 at the same time?
 

no soft reset required, just switch between gsm and cdma and you're good!

Thanks Doc!

no problem bro :).

Re: Any way to use T-mobile AND Sprint on the same TP2 at the same time?
 

For anyone that's curious... the reason it cannot run both GSM and CDMA simultaneously is because there is technically only one radio. It's capable of multiple frequencies, just not at the same time. Think of it just like your car stereo - it can't tune to different two stations at once, so the radio in the phone is similar. It does have the auto mode, but that only switches to GSM if no CDMA signal is present.

I think the reason no one has come out w/ an app that can switch from one to the other every few minutes is, at least last I checked, no one can seem to figure out how to switch the radio mode outside of the phone's own settings screen (it's not just a registry edit or something simple like that from what I understand)

Thanks. I had that theory but didn't know for sure :salute:

I'm actually digging into this right now... I've been able to track some reg info down, but since I dont have a GSM SIM card, and im not SIM unlocked, i cant test it properly... I might check into a prepay SIM of some sort...
