actvate T-Mobile variant on Sprint - Desire 626 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'd have a quick question I have currently been using the phone on T-Mobile networks is it possible to install a custom Sprint variant rom and then be able to activate the phone on Sprint networks ?
I recently read where Sprint is still not activating any non Sprint phones on their network at this time , I know this is not a global phone and it has a good I EMI number and SIM card but I do not know about having a valid ES n in number or if that is even possible on this Variant . Any help on this matter greatly appreciated

Is the phone sim unlocked? I don't know how it works with Sprint but that would be the case with GSM providers
If it's Sprint, it's CDMA.AT&T and T-Mobile are the only GSM providers in the US. However, it should work there if you get the SIM unlocked. The SIM unlock code is formulated based on the IMEI, so there are three ways to get it:
From Sprint. Probably the simplest, but tricky if you're not the phone's original owner.
Pay a site or unlocking service with the algorithm that decodes it from the IMEI. Usually runs around $10-$20.
Try the steps in this thread:

You can also try this app, but it only works on rooted phones running the original ROM:

Good luck.

Bro, A CDMA PHONE CANNOT BE UNLOCKED. IT WON'T EVEN WORK ON ANOTHER CDMA CARRIER LIKE VERIZON. ONLY SPRINT SIMs WILL WORK.
Make sure u buy a GSM phone if u plan 2 use it on another carrier.
But the phone uses GSM! It picks up the network here but I just cant get the unlock box

Then it simply isn't a Sprint handset. CDMA phones can only work on that particular network. The phone is custom-made just for that network

[Q] Sprint Ativ S Neo International unlock (GSM or CDMA)

Hello Guys !
I got a sprint ativ s neo which I now intend to gift to a cousin who lives in India as I'm not using it anymore. Before buying I checked and confirmed that it has both gsm and cdma radios as well as settings which would allow to choose network mode when not using sprint.
However there is an issue. While u have a sprint sim inside the phone u have the option to choose network mode enabled, however if u try to put in any other international sim (gsm or cdma) it will disable that option and has CDMA selected by default. Now I cant change the mode and it doesnt allow me to use the international sim ( although it detects the sim as I see network signal as well as sim applications pop up).
Can any of you guys help me figure out what else I can do to make it work on international gsm provider or even cdma providers ?
Thanks in advance

Can you sim unlock phone ?
need unlock for sprint i800
can anyone guide me how to unlock i800 sprint varient of ativ s neo
US carriers are required to offer you the option for unlocking your phone. Most likely you will have to own it outright.
Please check here for sprint's policy: http://www.sprint.com/legal/unlocking_policy.html
