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

[rcintorino]

Sorry if this is a bit confusing, I'll try to explain the best I can what I'm trying to do.


I have a t-mobile phone, with active service, and I have my Sprint TP2, with active service.

Is there any way I can put the T-mobile sim into my touch pro, and recieve calls and text messages from both numbers?

yes, you can just pop the t-mobile sim in a sprint tp2 and use it. but you must be sim unlocked first, and in case you're wondering, you can't use tmo and sprint at the same time. you have to switch between gsm and cdma mode. if you get stuck, post back .

bleh, see I have important messages that come in on both lines so I need to be able to answer both phones at any given time .

Is there possibly an application that will switch back and forth from GSM to CDMA every couple of minutes (the texts are more important than the phone calls)? I know this would bring battery life down to like, 2 minutes, but I can always plug it in!

Any ideas?

[Dr.8820]

i don't think there's a program out there for that...let me investigate..

[rcintorino]

Thank you! I'm usually pretty good at searching for this kind of stuff, but no one seems to be trying to do what I'm doing

I'll keep looking as well and see if I find something before you!

[Dr.8820]

i just checked around, no program for auto switching can be found. i'll keep my eye out. but remember, you must sim unlock your phone, then flash a special radio for this to work with manual switching.

yeah I did that research already, $25 bucks! not bad to solve a silly problem hehe.

[Dr.8820]

good luck, if you need further help, feel free to ask.

One method of re-routing phone calls is through T-mobile's Call-Forwarding. When I had T-Mo, it was free to call forward some 500 minutes/month.

Is there not a way to just use one number (like say google voice)? I thought it could forward multiple lines to just its service.
