Not sure if you can but if you had a sprint GS3 you probably can.

No [email protected]#t that's why I said that if you had a sprint GS3 you can. So far there hasn't been anyone who has successfully pull it off mainly because of the fact that boost is own by sprint therefore uses sprint's network.

Look what you asking for is very difficult to pull off and you are not the only one who asked this question. The most that have been accomplished was 3G data and the basic talk and maybe even text if you google it you will only find stuff from June to December 2012. You might have to check the sprint sg3 section to see if their methods apply to all GS3 variants since they are still active in that department.

your using a Verizon s3? i dont think you can unlock the sim... im not 100% sure but i think you have the international version.. if you look under the battery there is a model number. if it say SCH-I535 then you have the verizon. and i think sprint is l710 . and what color is the sim card from straight talk

Sorry
The i535 doesn't have the radios in it to work with T-Mobile 3G or 4G.
I dont think the international version even supports 4G LTE

I'm tellin you this works man. I was leary about it at first because all I have ever heard is that its impossible to get anything but edge on straight talk with a Verison S3. Its not true. This guy knows exactly what he is doing it took about 30 min from start to finish but what he did worked perfect. No 4g but 3g works like a charm. I highly recommend this for anyone needing it. heres the link to the post.

Hey guys I want to take my Verizon branded m8 over to straight talk with ATT SIM. So far I've rooted , s off'd and did supercid. Is it as easy as installing ATT RUU and installing straight talk SIM card?
I've seen in the threads that other people have done this but will 4g or LTE still work?
Thanks for any help
HSPA+ is what I get
Did you flash a AT&T Rom or just threw in the AT&T SIM card? And thanks for responding
I just threw in a At&t Sim card. My bootloader is locked so I can't flash Roms.

I plan on doing this today as well.... Did you port from Verizon to ST? If so how did that go? Also... What's supercid?
I did port my number. It took a few minutes and everything was switched over. I had to manually program my apn for data to work. I am not getting 4g or lte though only hspa and its much slower in my area at least. Supercid is basically writing over your cid to allow other phones firmware and Rom. AT&T phones work perfect with straight talk and have working lte so I was going to trick my phone into thinking it was an AT&T model

Thanks for reply. I am about to Super CID then hopefully activate. Would you mind sharing your APN settings?
Apn settings for straight talk are on their website. You probably need an actiabted SIM also

I am using the GSM sim card from the pack, and these screenshots are my settings.
Again thanks so much for your help!
Just so you guys know, MMS doesn't work for me on stock ROM with the stock SMS app or hangouts. But it works for when I use Textra or chompsms. Shouldn't be a problem if you have a custom ROM.
We won't get LTE unless you're with T-Mobile because this phone doesn't have the correct bands for att LTE

I apologize if this was already made aware or confirmed but I can confirm that Google does allow the Pixel 3xl esim to be used by other carriers other than project fi. I successfully got it working with tmobile.
For those with tmobile here is the instructions on how to get esim working with them.
https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/co...es_how_to_activate/?utm_source=reddit-android
And here is the screen shot of me utilizing tmobile as my esim.
Thanks for all of the xda community helping out to make things possible for our phones that many of the carriers would not allow us to do.
If you insert a physical SIM from another carrier, can you receive calls on both phone numbers? Or do you have to choose which single carrier you're on an any one time?
I wish this phone could do both at once, but unfortunately I have to switch back an fourth. I read somewhere that they had a rom or hack that could on one of the older pixels, but that is not confirmed and I don't know if it really existed or if I was reading what I wanted to read.

Did anyone try to activate eSim on Verizon?
Curious if visual voicemail in the phone dialer app is working for you? I'm having an issue getting it to work on one of my pixels. I've swapped some in my phone and determined it's the pixel/line having issues... might give this a try but wanted to make sure visual voicemail works for you.

For me, I had to log into my VZW account and disable all my VM related stuff. Made a test call and my VVM works flawlessly on my dialer app. I don't have eSim because I'm using VZW. Maybe OP can answer this if you are referring to eSim.
Would you guys know if Sprint support the eSIM on Pixel 3 XL?
Thank you.

On the box. Or Sim status Eid.
using esim only works on other carriers for the unlocked phones. eid is hidden from verizon versions. you can try to remove the physical sim on those. and also most the big carriers support it. it was originally for iphones but they have problems with theirs. mine works great on tmobile. tmobile, sprint, verizon and at&t support it. i had to call in three times till the last rep just did it. if you have to explain it, the rep doesnt know what they are doing. call back and get a rep that knows what is up.
I have just flased Android Q DP1. Tapping on "add carrier", no QR code scanner is shown. It jumps to an error page directly. May I confirm if everyone has the same issue?

Am I wrong for believing there is a Samsung version of visual voicemail that can be used on the unlocked phones?
I would like to give it a spin but cannot find it.
use T-Moible voicemail if you're using on T-Mobile Network, or use YouMail app or Google Voice if you have one.

That was one of the problems I ran into using an unlocked phone on Verizon network a couple of years ago. Also, I was not able to get notifications for text, etc. After that, I swore off unlocked phones. But things may have changed since then, or you may find a work around. Good luck.

I just uninstalled TVV and will look to give YouMail a try.
However my question still remains, am I wrong to assume that there is a Samsung Visual Voicemail app that can be used. I swear I read something about how people hated the Tmobile version because they make you pay to transcribe the voicemail to text but the Samsung version did not.
Yes it has the Samsung one installed. It comes up as voicemail in the finder...it's not baked in to the dialer though which is super annoying.
If you want the at&t visual voicemail or other branded version the apk is out there and I can confirm does work on our phone the same issue is still present though regarding the missing icon from the dialer...
Xda hates my phone at the moment so I can't upload a picture but the image for the Samsung one looks just like the voicemail notification symbol.

It's available from the galaxy app store according to the app info. I definitely didn't download it and it wasn't on my last device.
was there ever a solution to this? on s20 G9880 and G9810 no visual voicemail apk, using on t-mo and att respectively
