Welcome to the forum.
Your phone can be unlocked to work with any CDMA network.
I am not familiar with Boost Mobile so I do not know wether it is a CDMA or GSM network. If it is GSM, your VX6900 will not be compatible.
Thanks, thats a great start.
Ok, there is always another question when there is an answer with this isn't there. Thanks, I will investigate the GSM question.
thanks for the quick reply.
Boost mobile is a mostly iden network
if your area has boost mobile cdma available and you have bought and activated a cdma boost mobile phone then it is very possible. sadly i"ve heard boost is trying to phase out cdma and i can not find a plan for a boost mobile cdma phone in my area.
I am trying to figure out if I Unlock the Galaxy S 4G will I simply be able to go on Boost.com to input the ESN to the upgrade information on that page and will it allow me to use it for Boost? My Boost account is current, but I wanna use the Galaxy S 4G instead of the Prevail that I have. Any suggestions???
Isn't the GS4G a GSM Phone? The Prevail is a CDMA running on Sprints Network. Mainly all Boost smart phones are CDMA, or IDEN. So no, I'm sorry. If you use a regional carrier for T-Mo *as the GS4G is a T-Mo Band phone*. Walmart's Family Mobile is epic. It's also a HSUPA+ and 4G Network.
In light of the new "Unlocking Consumer Choice and Wireless Competition Act", why is it so hard to bring a Sprint Galaxy Note 3 to Boost Mobile? My Touch Pro2 came from Sprint, and I didn't have all of these problems. With the Galaxy Note 3 there is all of this talk of flashing, getting SMS/MMS to work, and 3G to work.
Question:
When you finish, will it have Boost Mobile LTE as on Sprint? When you do get it set up, and you reset the phone to factory because of a bad app install, now what?
Thoughts:
What I don't understand is why using a Note 3 with Boost Mobile should be any harder than using one of the S3s that Boost sells. Ting has BYOD and also uses the Sprint network. I've been with Sprint or Boost since the 90s. They phase out IDEN, then they go with Wi-Max? Now Sprint's new Spark network is using an LTE variant (TD-LTE), that doesn't work with any other U.S. carrier's phones, and works at 1/2 the speed? Sprint/Boost introduces new tri-band phones that cannot multitask, as an upgrade to earlier phones that can? The won't support phones even when they came off their own network?
It's on the supported BYOD list from Freedompop and is also the same hardware model as the one Boost Mobile sold. I was wondering if anyone here had luck activating the Sprint model on either of those carriers?
I purchased a new Boost Mobile Galaxy S7 in box but I'm on T-mobile.
I read that their network is not compatible but if I get it unlocked will it work okay?
Will the bands match for a full access to the network?
Thanks
