Hi, I have a m8 verizon, I do not rooted my phone yet, I mean this has the original rom, I'm on South America, and I can't update because I use a different phone operator, my question is If I buy a prepaid verizon sim card, can I put it into the phone and update via wireless?
I have Android 4.4.2
Thanks
Verizon sim
Any help?
Please
I don't know the answer to your qestion but if you're willing to root it you can update it no problem.

You should be able to update through HTC Sync manager

Hi everybody,
I have already flashed a new ROM (ICS 4.0.4) and I have superuser permissions (root) but,
Is it possible to use my smartphone with some other company SIM card? My mobile phone is an Lt15i (Xperia Arc) and i bought it in Spain (with vodafone) ... now i am in germany and i want to use my new FONIC SIM...
What can I do?
Thanks in advance.
Fernando.

If it's an unlocked GSM phone, it will work with any GSM carrier. I don't know if your phone is carrier locked or not, though. Also, custom roms don't control which carrier you can use.

You don't need root or ANYTHING to unlock your phone.
1) get SIM that is not the network the phone was originally on
2) buy unlock code from local dealer or trusted ebay seller. You have to give them your IMEI I believe
3) put that SIM in and when prompted, enter unlock code. Phone is now unlocked for any SIM card for eternity

Hi everyone.. I need help.. I have galaxy s3 verizon running android 4.4.2. I want to unlock it for any GSM network all I found is for android 4.1.2 or below Kitkat and unable to find any solution for Kitkat 4.4.2. Please help me to unlock my phone to use any sim.
Newer vzw phones don't actually have a sim lock. You just need to put the new sim in, and add APN info. Not sure if this is the case with the gs3.
I'm using a vzw phone in Spain right now.. Didn't do anything to it.. Inserted new sim, added APN.

For future reference, VZW gs3 works fine with a tmo sim, just add apn's for your carrier, as stated above.
I am currently using a Samsung Galaxy S5 (AT&T) with cricket. Since the phone works flawlessly with just the cricket SIM in the phone. I had no reason to get it unlocked or had to change any internal apn settings. My question is with it being an AT&T phone using a cricket SIM card for service will it be able to receive OTA firmware updates? Thanks in advance.

Please only post the same question 1 time. I have answer you more than one place and also in you PM.
I cannot guarantee you that it will work with your carrier.
I CAN guarantee you that you will not be able to downgrade without s-off if it does not work.

Sorry no. It can only be updated with an AT&T or H2O SIM card.

There's no other method or way other than getting a sim. At least that model is a TON better than the Sprint model you had before.
