Hi I'm looking to unlock my sprint galaxy s4 SPH-L720 to use on straight talk. Would I need the GSM or CDMA activation kit from straight talk?

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
As a Sprint device, your S4 is obviously CDMA-capable but you'd have to check with Straight Talk whether their SIMs use CDMA or GSM (3G?). Fortunately there is an XDA area dedicated to the Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4 at http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-sprint which would be a good starting place. I suggest you post your question with all relevant details in the friendly Q&A forum there at http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-sprint/help where the experts familiar with your device will be best able to guide you.
Good luck!
EDIT: Member has now posted in the suggested area. Thread closed.

sch I535 with straight talk?

Hello, Im a rookie here, I cant seem to find a clear answer without having PRO DEV skills. All I want to know is, can I use my verizon galaxy s3 with straight talk gsm service in the united states? I realize it is a CDMA phone, but if im not mistaken it has a GSM radio in it. I read somewhere all I needed to do was download an app called "phone status" and change the settings to wcdma and insert a att sim card in. That seems too easy and I dont want to go blow $100 on a sim chip and phone card for nothing. Thanks in advance for any insight!
Verizon hasn't unlocked it yet for use on other networks. Jellybean leaks include the option in settings though. I'm not sure if it works

Yes and no. It depends on the market you are signing up in. GSM coverage is **** where iI live so all of the straightTalk phones here are CDMA.
It all really depends on what carrier they partnered with in your area.

SCH-I535 flash to Straight talk?
I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 can it be flashed to Straight Talk? I keep getting a sim card error. I try switching sims only find it doing the same thing. So I really dont want to use the sim card method. Can I just use a straight talk donor phone that I already have and use the info on the straight talk donor in the s3?

Verizon S3 w/ T Mobile service

I have a rooted Verizon S3 with T Mobile service and I only get Edge connection. A little new at all this but sure could use some help, thanks.

You do know now it's illegal to use a Verizon phone on a different carrier.Just saying not trying To cause you trouble but save you headaches
Unless you legally flashed it somehow..but tmobile and Verizon run differently

SWITCH USCC gs3 to Verizon gs3

So US Cellular is done in Chicago and I refuse to purchase another phone if I can change over with my current one.
I am already rooted and wondering what I would need to do attempt to get the cmda to recognize Verizon. PLEASE HELP!

Surely changing the cmda can't be too difficult.

not sure if its still in effeect but didnt verizon "open" their network?
shouldnt you be able to call them and they might help you?
not sure if this situation applies but id try that
Well I'm not sure if I can activate my phone because it's currently in service with US Cellular and I don't have a second phone to swap temporarily while I test.
Currently I can goto Verizon's Activation website entered my IMEID and it says not compatible. Could be not possible but eternally everything should be the same minus the LTE capabilities. There may be
another way but I can't find my box with my ESN on it.
