How did you get your phone?? new in box or replaced through advanced exchange??

If anyone got a refurb TP without a SIM I do have an extra from a NIB TP2 (dup ESN - wouldn't activate) I'd be willing to send to someone in need.

My wife and I got our TP2s without SIM cards as well. We got them from a repair store in exchange for our TPs, they're not refurbished but came in OEM non-retail packaging. Fortunately I have access to plenty of deactivated T-Mobile SIM cards at work so I was able to pop on in to get rid of the notification. It's not useful for anything, but at least the notification is gone.

Why do you need a SIM card anyway? Sprint's international rates are a ripoff anyway.

If you just want a SIM card, go to any mom and pop cell phone store and ask them for any used SIM cards. Some SIM cards cannot be reactivated and they may have a bunch of old ones laying around. Ask for one and you will get it for free most likely.

I believe if you go to your network settings and change it to "CDMA Only" you wont get that error. Normally it's set to Global so it's looking for the card.

That is correct, thanks for posting that fix.

I get the notification even when set to CDMA only. But for now I've got a disabled SIM in and it's working fine to prevent the notification.

Mine is already set to cdma only. Are there any other suggestions you can think of?

Just go get yourself a prepaid T-Mobile or something...the sprint sim is useless unless you plan to trravel outside the US...
