Its a CDMA device you are free to use any compatible CDMA sim cards in it. You can't use gsm or 3g sim cards as this device does not have this technology. Is it CDMA network locked? Do you mean that it is carrier branded and can only run that service provider's sim from which you bought... if that is your case Google is your friend....

I have Galaxy Tab Sprint cdma.
I want to flash it to another operator.
how to do this? help please!
If its gsm, root it then download galaxy s unlock from the market and run it. You are now carrier/sim unlocked.

Do you know if that would work with my sprint CDMA galaxy tab?
Sprint is CDMA operator.I want to flash another CDMA operator.
there is a thread about flashing the Sprint tab to Boost mobile, it's not a simple process. As far as a CDMA carrier overseas you'd have to check to make sure they are using the same CDMA frequencies.
We have operators that use the same frequencies that Sprint and Verizon.
I can not find anywhere instructions for flashing galaxy tab to another operator.
where I can see how the stitch Sprint tab to Boost mobile ?

Hey OP http://tinyurl.com/3mqe495
Usually you don't have to do something manualy with your TAB. Visit CDMA operator service and ask them - they can do this in 15 minutes.
I've did the same at Intertelecom.
My incredible s is currently locked to Bell, I'm hoping to run it on Rogers and I was wondering if i can unlock it by rooting/debranding the phone.

Here is a thread that has all the information you may need. Once you gain S-Off you can certainly unbrand the phone and you may be able to SuperCID it to Sim unlock it too (no really sure about that as my Bell IncS was already unlocked when I bought it off EBay).

hmm check the bands rogers uses. I'm using one on telus, and before this I was using a rogers x10 on telus so I would say it should be fine
oh ok so rooting it will allow me to use it on other carriers? Revolutionary supports 2.28.666.3 right?
no you still have to sim unlock it..
rooting alone won't do that

You can check the bands and frequencies for SPRINT here:
http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_one_(m8)_cdma-6233.php
For the sim unlock it is up to "firewater" compatibility, since you need to S-OFF your device first.
Regarding compatibility with firewater, your question should be: How can I make sure that my device will be supported by firewater?
The answer: You cant! Its just a matter of luck for the moment.
There are alot of people who successfully S-OFF their devices with firewater, and there are also unlucky persons like me, who cant (i got 2 devices that i cannot S-OFF).
There is also a bounty thread for people which cannot S-OFF:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2733870
If SIM unlocking is your concern, I suggest you to buy it unlocked (yeah i know the price is higher).
For the time being there is no provider offering SIM Unlock for Sprint. Believe me, since I have a SPRINT standard M8 device which i cant SIM unlock for the moment.

Thank you for the information..I'm an htc lover...i can buy it factory unlocked in about the same price...but i want that version...i really liked the color combination and what h/k addition offers...i know that i can port the h/k software to another m8 but i like the whole package...it's unique....i live in Greece....bought my friend some months ago an already sim unlocked sprint htc one m7 and it's working fine..So to sum up..if i got it...it's not 100% that i would be able to sim unlock it..... Also i saw on the gsmarena on the lte frequencies sprint version support LTE 800 / 1900 / 2600 my carrier lte frequencies are 1800 MHz, 2600 MHz...... so i should be able to have lte at 2600MHz?

How about reboot phone don't touch anything in mobile network options and go directly to phone info with the 4 digit code *#*#4636#*#* go phone information and change the preferred network type just don't touch anything in the mobile network settings and see if that works.
I had done this on Verizon GPE ROM and got data working by only switching in phone information once I toggled in actual mobile settings I was screwed maybe that will work for you

You should select what ever network type you need in order for your data to work. But if you touch any of the settings in mobile network it just stops working completely. Well at least that's what happened to me but you could also try manipulating the band's that are supported in your location

im rooted and i try many times the SIM UNLOCK HELPER but when i press START it doesnt do anything.
i try the procedure posted by REUTERS BUT I DONT KNOW IF ITS WAS OK.
code from att is not working
Hi,
If AT&T gave you a Sim unlock code and it's not working, you're best option is contacting them for support.
But I will have your thread moved to your device section for other opinions. You will need to register on XDA to respond to any replies.
Good luck!
