First off bro, step off my toes. I work two jobs to make ends meet, add a house, elderly mom, and a gf in the mix, and I don't really have time to sit at the computer everyday, and wonder why people don't post instant replies. Tho, I must say, if I had the time, I probably would.

Thanks for all the input guys.

While I'd love to have both phones working at the same time, I'm not gonna add another line for it, and I'm sure as hell not gonna break any laws in the process. I'm not the brightest star in the sky at times, but my cheese is definitely, firmly planted on my cracker.

From my understanding the original topic isn't illegal, so I won't delete the post. But any mod is more than welcome to close the thread, since the topic has been addressed.

Everyone's been thanked, including the toe-stepper.

not to be specific, but i clone my old sanyo 8200 to my current esn because my battery just doesn't last long enough. i hate carrying batteries with me, and the sanyo has much better reception in low reception areas, such as the basement in my house. i usually keep the sanyo in the car if i go anywhere, just in case i need it. is it legal? nope. has sprint caught on? not in the past year. i use both phones daily. and please, nobody msg me about cloning. i won't answer any questions.

Then why would you post that? Sounds like a d'bag move to me...

i taught myself how... it took me around 6 hours to gather everything necessary. i'm not a genius or anything, so if you can't figure it out, thats not my problem lol

and its illegal, and i'd rather not be tracked to florida by the fbi haha

I signed up with Grand Central (since bought out by Google Voice) and have a local Washington DC number from there. it rings on both my cell phones, my Touch Pro and my Moto Razr. Not cloning, not illegal, but handy as hell. I can give out that number but if I in the field or whatever and I dont want to risk fubaring my Touch Pro I can simply use the razr and still get my calls and messages.

Yea, that's fine & dandy if you already have an account but they aren't accepting any new accounts so that's no help to anybody here..........

I'll admit, having a second (or third, or fourth) phone one an exsiting line would be nice. I would mostly like it for security purposes, I could keep a couple old cell phones on chargers in drawers in various rooms, that way if I couldnt get to my main phones (home or cell) I could always grab one of those charged phones and do what I need.

For all practical purposes I'm really thinking a home fire or home invasion, if my wife or myself coluldnt get to our cell phones and the home phone was disabled or inaccesable then we could just grab one of those "other" phones and dial emergency services.
Yes, I am paranoid.

So does anybody know of a pay as you go phone that can sit for a year or more and still work? Because that would solve my concerns. Unfortunatley I dont know of any that work like that.

sorry john, maybe I should have jumped on the "thats illegal" bandwagon. supposedly google voice is supposed to be opening up soon, so it might become an option.

and snoman, you know that even on an unactivated cell phone you can dial 911 right?

Nah, we have enough people on that kick.......(I'm not one of them by the way, I have owned my share of cloned phones over the years)

You know, I had actually been made to understand that an old cell phone could NOT dial 911. Back in the day (Startack days that is) everybody I knew believed that any old cell phone could dial 911. A couple years ago I heard that it was in fact not true that an old phone could do that.
Of course, 5 minutes of internet reasearch showed that I was incorrect and old phones could dial 911. In fact, many old phones are donated to agencies that help battered women, they had the phones out so the women can dial 911 if the need arises.

Guess I need to take those old phones away from my 3yr old now.

Now it makes me wonder how long a fully charged turned off cell phone will last? 6mo before the battery dies, 12, 18?

Thanks
