friend of mine was wondering if the boost mobile can work on the ATT network? i know the phone is sim locked to sprint but has there been a way to root and bypass the sim lock for GSM networks? i know it won't support LTE but just want basic calls/texts and H+ data
I might be wrong but I don't believe he can until there's a domestic unlock. It's currently being worked on

I'm interested in the possibility of using an unlocked international S6 variant on Verizon's network in hopes of obtaining root. Does anyone know if this is possible? I spoke to a verizon rep on the line about this and I was told that "Theoretically, it should work fine. Verizon cannot offer support for non-verizon variants."
Can anyone with some more knowledge on this shed some light on this matter? Can the international model be activated on Verizon and rooted? If so, which S6 international model can be used?

I'm pretty sure the international version doesn't support CDMA, which is used by Verizon for 2G and 3G network. So you won't be able to call or text (data should still work though). The Verizon S6 (G920V) actually comes with a Qualcomm modem to support CDMA, as opposed to Samsung's own Shannon.

Any ideas about the Sprint Variant then? It's been rooted and is CDMA.

The Sprint variant (G920P) should be compatible with Verizon as it comes with the Qualcomm modem.
Can anyone confirm that the Sprint s6 works on Verizon????
Anyone able to determine this?? Sprint s6 working on Verizon.

I am currently using my sprint S6 on the Verizon Network.
Current issues:
PRL needs to be updated because it is preferring to use the sprint network over Verizon. This makes it so that my fastest speeds are 1Mb/s. not to mention sprint network here blows with reception.
If anyone could help me with what PRL would be the correct one to use. Also I haven't flashed the PRL before and I am reluctant to start pressing buttons in the CDMA Dev Tool.
Help would be appreciated.
It's on the supported BYOD list from Freedompop and is also the same hardware model as the one Boost Mobile sold. I was wondering if anyone here had luck activating the Sprint model on either of those carriers?
Has anyone SIM unlocked an ATT A51 and is using it on TMobile? I want to switch from ATT to TMobile but when I go to check compatibility of the IMEI for BYOD It says that this phone does not support key features. Your phone doesn't support Extended Range LTE or Voice over LTE technology.
Will an unlocked TMobile version of this phone work on an existing Verizon line without having to ask verizon to white list the imei or add cdma less etc?
I have

I have Unlocked T-mobile A71 5G, It works on Verizon network like 4G LTE (just swap the SIM card even I have 5G Sim card from Verizon) but NO 5G because they are using different 5G Band.
I have the same question, but on cricket wireless, I can't get the phone to login to their network
It works just fine on any GSM/LTE network. I have not checked this personally for this device, but depending on the variant you have, you may be missing some LTE or 5G bands specific Verizon. You may not get full performance. That must be verified though.
