Switching Sprint iPhone 4s to prepaid?
I have been in contract with Sprint on my iPhone for about 13-14 months. If I end the contract and pay the early termination fee, can I then switch to a prepaid service?
No, that iPhone is locked to sprint (No unlock for any other USA network) and will only work with Sprint or a provider in a different country.
Some people use to flash a sprint phone and spoof the IMEI numbers to trick boost and virgin (both sprint prepaid providers) into adding them but in October this was deemed illegal and could get you in to some trouble if they ever caught it.
There's no legal way to use it another carrier, if it was the AT&T version you would have many more options.
Yes you would pay $349 etf and the full price of the iphone, and you won't be able to use as a sprint prepaid.
Pay your early termination fee and the only place you can use it is Sprint prepaid. These phones are cdma technology so they can't be unlocked. Maybe you could flash it to another carrier, but that's dicey.
- What's a prepaid phone? Can IPhones be prepaid? I'm going to buy an IPhone 4 from my friend and i'm wondering if it can be prepaid? If so do I need anything like a sim chip? & It's not on contract… Or could I just go on a plan without being on a contract?
- Switching your iphone from sprint to verizon? I have an iphone with sprint but i stopped using their service. Can you use your iphone from sprint and switch over to verizon? I've heard you can from some and can't from others. Is there a way to legally do this?
- Switching to Sprint and buying iPhones? My dad and I are going to switch to Sprint this weekend but we just had a few questions. His credit isn't too hot, so will he have to pay a deposit? Also, we were going to get the iPhones that are 0.00 when starting a new plan. This might sound dumb, but will they still be that price even though his credit isn't great? And finally. I've read things such as "spending limits." What does that mean?
