Swapping services

So I had the Inspire 4G on AT&T and my girlfriend became an ex and now I don't have service. I was wondering if I can swap the ROM to a Verizon ROM and run it on their network. Please help.

Short answer, no. The long answer has to do with radio frequencies and technology used. For voice and 2G data you could use T-mobile. You may have a regional service provider option also. I do not know what is available in your area.

No you can't. ATT is gsm and Verizon is cdma. You could use it on tmobile if its unlocked but will only get edge speeds.

Your best option is to sell the phone now, while its hot and get some good money off of it and buy another phone.

I personally am still pretty new to rooting and all but doesn't verizon have sim cards for their world phones?

Thanks for the information, I didn't think I would be able to. It is rooted but I need to do a complete wipe on the phone and return it to stock with root. Thanks for the help and hopefully I will be able to sell this with some scuffs on it. Maybe just try for $100 rooted.

or unlock it and use simple mobile... unlimited everything for like 60 bucks a month, ( and 3g ) no contract. but check coverage.. etc....

Why not do the most simple thing get a pay as you go phone. Swap the sim into the inspire. $50 unlimited everything. Don't try telling me it wont work either. I have used two different iphones and a blackberry on pay as you go. And dont try the different sim thing either. When I went contract they had me use the same sim. Just go get a cheap pay as you go phone register it swap the sim and try it out.

Buddy 3g won't work. The frequency bands are not compatible with tmkbile(simple mobile). Unless you got Att or a side branch that runs off at towers and signal, you will ONLY get Edge speeds end of story. Don't proven using tmobile and simple mobile.

Att doesn't offer a $50 prepaid unlimited everything. It's text and talk only. Don't provide false info

In order to use to $50 unlimited with a smartphone, a separate data package must be added.

Ok I tried to keep this nice but sense you you want to get rude about it. Let me let you in on a little secret, for the past few months att has been locking the prepaid sim cards to the phone by IMEI they are activated on for 6 months. The only way to have it unlocked is by calling them to get it unlocked in which case they want the imei of the new phone. They have also implamented the IMEI scan they do for the contract lines. So even if you have an older sim card that is not locked, After a while then will notice and data will stop working. Now How do I know this you ask? I just spent the last year as the Store manager for a local ATT retail store. So the next time you decide to be rude, you might want to take a min and think that maybe, just maybe you dont have all the facts.
And I do stand corrected on the pay-per use data. That was what it did before they started blocking it.

Unlocking my G2x.

I am thinking very seriously about unlocking my G2x an going to AT&T because my service sucks big time where I live at. I don't get service in my house an when I go outside it takes about 5 minutes to get a signal.....what's everyone thoughts.....I've already talked to AT&T an Tmobile and have my unlock code already

I assume you've already verified that it's possible to get a decent signal on AT&T there?

AT&T gets great signal there an a lot more places also.....an its atleast 3g there about to be 4g an with tmobile I've only got 2g there

Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

G2x supposedly does NOT contain AT$T 3G bands as previously advertised. As for home coverage, T-Mo is supposed to be launching an in-home signal booster for free (with 2-yr contract, probably doesn't effect upgrade timeline but haven't verified that) pretty soon. I think within the next week.

My understanding is the booster needs to be connected to your broadband internet router to work. So you will be using your internet bandwidth to use mobile voice and data. What a scam...
And any one visiting you (or you neighbor) with a t-mobile connection will use that signal (your internet) and pay t-mobile for that.

Hopefully your "source" isn't an otherwise reputable source of information because you (they) couldn't be more wrong. I have been a part of the beta for these boosters for the past 6 months. All it does is take a weak 3G signal (which means you must get 3G somewhere in your house for this to work) and amplifies it throughout your house. In my case in an upstairs window I got a weak 3G signal so I put the receiver in the window and the transmitter in my living room. Now I get between 1 and 6mbps down throughout my entire house. There is not even a way to connect this thing to a home internet router. I don't even have home internet.
I'd be curious to know where you heard this.
Oh and the G2x does not work on AT&T 3G bands. I have been in several states with no T-Mobile coverage and have used AT&T instead, but only on Edge.

I did not say I heard this from someone. I said its my understanding, and that was based on the similar booster I saw from Sprint. If t-mobile is implementing it in a different way, than i am sorry for my ignorance.

I didn't intend to sound overtly defensive, I just don't like when people start using the "scam" word when this couldn't be further from a scam. This device kicks ass and tmo wants to give it out for free in exchange for people's business. This device is normally $500 so this program is great. Hopefully they will also offer the equipment at full retail price for those uncomfortable signing or extending a contract.

Yeah, yeah... I know about spectrum availability and yada yada but this just shows our lack of foresight and another example of our national handicap of wanting to be different from everyone else.

Lots of countries are messed up. We just finally got all the carriers providing 3G here in Thailand. Two of them are providing 3G on 850Mhz (DTAC and TrueMove), one is on 900Mhz and the other is on 2100Mhz. A big grab bag. An AT&T phone will get 3G on two of them. Some TMO phones get 3G on the other one. But all phones get it on the 2100 carrier. I am using my G2X on 2100Mhz here (TOT3G) and my Nexus One on 900Mhz (AIS). So the USA isn't the only country with non-unified 3G bands.

What do u mean by this.....the atrix...I looked at that phone also and the infuse too

Anybody getting that $30 unlimited text/4g and 100 minutes deal?

The minute I save up enough to buy my Sidekick 4G, I'm heading for this deal.
Right here.
A quick little excerpt
The new flexible and affordable plan will provide Walmart customers with access to America’s Largest 4G Network™. In a survey of Walmart customers, approximately 60 percent cited that having a high-speed data network was a key factor in the purchase of a wireless service plan. With this new offering, available for $30 per month and no annual contract, customers can enjoy unlimited Web, with the first 5 GB at up to 4G speeds; unlimited text; and 100 minutes of talk, with 10 cents per minute after the first 100 minutes.

Thought I might add that this will work with any 4G enabled T-Mo phone... just that you would have to pay the no contract price for the phone.

Nice find dude! That is actually worth cancelling my contract for, I barely use any minutes and pay about $60 a month now. if I cancel it's like $200 but I will be saving $30 a month so:
30x18= 540- 200= $340 of savings and no contract!!

Tnx dude for telling us. I am definately going to switch to that plan!!!!

so let me get thiz straight if u want that deal you have to go to walmart only to get it?

See, that's I'm not entirely sure about. It does say Exclusively at Walmart and it;s online store, as well as T-Mo's website, but how will you get the SIM card? Will it be shipped out to you?

I guess well just have to wait and see on the 16th. I'm going to go to a walmart store and check online nd see if I get it.

That is exactly me! I never owned a 4G/3G phone before (I have the LX before they canned data, now it' sucks ) but I know I'm a HEAVY texter and I love to use data.
I asked my friend, who is on Sprint with the Evo if he uses 5GB/m, and he said he averages 3~4GB, so I know 5GB will probably be more than enough for me (Esp since there's wifi for data hogging things like video streaming)
And when I'm at home, I can just use the home phone, thus saving me on the 100 minutes when people like your girlfriend wanna "Hear your voice" -__-

wow great find! That's not a bad deal for people who don't talk as much as they text!

So how do I go about getting this now?

I haven't heard anything about that, I don't think they have caught on to it yet (they are just catching up to tethering and that's been around since 2008 on the G1) I know google voice works good, the one thing they said is you might not get as good of reception on prepaid because they borrow towers but I live in the city and get good 4g where I live/work, I think he might've been BSing me to get me to not cancel my contract though

Worth the ETF
If you're currently paying $100 per month under contract, you'd make up for the cost of a $325 ETF in six months. Your contract probably isn't brand new, so the actual ETF would be less than that.
If you don't want to autopay, you can also buy 90 days worth of service from Walmart.com, which brings the price a bit below $45 per month, not including tax.
Here's a giant thread that lists the prepaid options out there: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1455014
Keep in mind that that thread lists several options that use T-Mobile's network, which isn't an option on the Infuse unless you want to always be on Edge speeds. People on that thread seem to agree that Straight Talk is the best option currently available using AT&T's network.
A lot of people who go prepaid port their numbers to Google Voice and make and receive all calls through that service. That way, they can hop from one prepaid provider to another without having to go to the bother of porting their number. I considered trying that myself, but I found there was too much voice lag in making Google Voice calls. It was like talking to someone via satellite or something: everything came through a half second late. I'd be curious if anyone has had better results than I have with that.
A couple of things to be aware of: Straight Talk claims to provide unlimited data, but they'll shut you down if you use too much. Most people say to play it safe and not to go over 100 MB per day or 2GB per month. They generally give you a couple of warnings before they take action, but in the worst-case scenario, they could cancel your account and you'd lose your number.
Also, these companies are almost always limited to AT&T's network, with no roaming access at all. They tend to have terrible customer service because they cut costs wherever they can.
I'm sticking with AT&T while my phone is under warranty (I've been having some minor issues with it that I need to get addressed), but as soon as that's over, I'm switching to Straight Talk.

The number porting took about 20 min after doing the online set up.. As far as data I don't think I'm close to the 2gb cut off that people claim. I guess if you tether they will cut you off eventually. This is plenty fast for every day use email, pandora. I have not had any issues.. The only thing that I notice is that when I ever I send a MMS I have to add message with it or it dosen't get delivered. But it could just be this phone, my iphone on Straight talk would work fine with MMS. I love the $ 41 + tax I pay..

LTE is really overkill on a phone IMO when 3g allows streaming video and there's free WiFi on every corner. Unless you're tethering who cares. I just want 3g.
If it can be done on other mvnos im sure it can be done.

i would like more info on this as well. thisi is what i heard
my friend got a call from net10 dealer. saying that net10 wants us to flash phones to net10 now. I know net10, tracfone,st ect our owned by the same person even page plus now!! page plus dealer portal will probably disappear soon or later.
well net10 cdma is now open for business to flasher offing unlimited everything for $50
the only reason i really want to make the switch because whether unlimited or not net10 advertises as unlimited data so that makes all the difference with customers. plus is $5 cheaper. anybody else heard of this? not trying to mess up vipers thread but just trying to see as we might have to had net10 to the topic. if so i want to make this transition asap plus you can top up on net10 anywhere!!! even at your local dollar store! another plus
