Does a T-Mobile prepaid phone need to be cancelled or deactivated before anyone else can use it? An unlocked Nexus 4 to be specific.

The phone itself does not need to be deactivated...you just need to put in a different SIM card and you're good to go.

Sorry about that, my phone had a bit a freakout. I actually had another question, which was if the phone could work on Virgin Mobile or not.

Virgin Mobile is GSM isn't it? The NS4G will only run on a CDMA network.

It's CDMA, just like Sprint.

Thinking about buying one, not on Verizon network. Is this phone unlockable?

Basically I'm thinking of buying this phone and using it with a prepaid plan. Is there a way to unlock it to use on a different carrier?

I doubt there will be decent responses until the VZW version is released...
You can use the sprint version with page plus.

Switching phones with someone else.

My dad is due for an upgrade and is thinking of getting the s4. He doesnt really know how to use anything from a technology standpoint so he is willing to let me have it and he'll take my s3. My question is do I need to be completely stock to switch phone numbers etc...? Thanks for any help.

Nah, just put your sim card in the S4 and his in the S3.

Hey thanks man. Do I need to activate his first or will mine act like a new one in the s4?

If you put yours in the S4 then the S4 will be active with your phone number. Your dad will have to get his SIM card activated to use on your S3

[Q] Nexus 5 Verizon radio flash

I purchased a Nexus 5 and I know that it doesn't support the VZW lte band. My question is, doesn't the Nexus 5 have the same SoC as the LG G2? If so, does anyone think they can get the LG G2 radio flash for the VZW version to work on the Nexus 5 to make it work with VZW?
It may be possible but may brick your phone. But this is a message I got when I put in my Sim card. Not sure if it helps at all.

I found this and have been making posts on this thread. Someone else has the same idea, but no one has seemed to have tried it yet.

You'll lose wifi calling with T mobiles sketchy service I'd avoid any unlocked phone. If I had ATT odd go that root
