Can I activate my inactivated sprint iPhone 4 with Virgin Mobile or Boost?

I have an iPhone 4.It was purchesed under sprint but isn't activated. Can i activate it under Virgin Mobile?

No. Virgin does not permit non-Virgin phones.

From this article it seems you can. But you might have to have your phone unlocked first or you may not.

It would work, but Virgin Mobile doesn't allow for that to happen. It's capable of working on Virgin, but nearly impossible because Virgin doesn't allow outside branded phones.

  • Virgin Mobile or Boost Mobile? I'm moving to Houston this summer and I'm looking for a cheaper cell phone plan. I talk, text, email, fb etc. I had virgin mobile back in 2004 and I love it and had no problem. I have a android galaxy s3 right now which I love but the battery isn't so great. I'm thinking about possibly buying an iPhone. What I'm really looking for is reviews on virgin and boost mobile. If you have any other cheap cell phone plan carrier suggestions I'm up for that too.
