hey i wanna unlock my g1 and before i spend my money can anyone tell me if it will work with boost mobile and can i get through the g1 startup screen with the boost internet? if so whats the apn
Boost AFAIK is part of Sprint, and Sprint uses CDMA, which is different from the GSM bands that the G1 uses, so no.
my friend just gave me his t-mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 4. i have the unlock code for the device. can i use my sprint sim card on this device? i have code. i tried to unlocked the device and then when i tried to use my cellular date i get this massage "Not registered on network" is it possible to use my sprint sim card on this device.
no. you cannot. needs to be a GSM provider (att or tmobile)

Even if the phone is rooted, unlocked, and the cell network changed to CDMA? I've used some Rom's that allow u to make that change just not sure if it'll actually work. .... thanks for any help
Good evening everyone!
I have a XT1097 on WIND, on 5.0.1 and I'm trying to get Rogers/Fido LTE working. It supports all of the bands but when I select LTE Preferred it defaults to HSPA+, and forcing LTE gives me no service. My brother has an unlocked XT1097 from Telus, on 5.0.1 and the Fido SIM works fine for LTE!
Checking the system settings, there are some software differences: Screencast Link.
How would I go about getting this working on my WIND XT1097? Replace just the baseband? Replace everything? Do I throw the Telus software on it or go for Motorola's OEM software?
TL;DR: I have an XT1097 purchased from WIND CANADA that won't connect to 2100/2600MHz LTE on other networks (proper SIM and all), even though the device supports it. Did WIND purposefully gimp the phone with a different baseband, and how can I fix it?
You can't. Wind doesn't pay Bell of Rogers for access to the LTE bandwidth. No changing of settings will fix that, only having a Bell or Rogers sim.

I think you've misinterpreted my question. I have a phone purchased from WIND (unlocked), and a Fido SIM with a plan. The Fido SIM inside the phone connects me to HSPA+ but not LTE. My guess is that the baseband has been modified by WIND/whoever they get their devices from to lock out the LTE radio, preventing me from connecting to Rogers/Fido LTE with a Fido SIM inside my WIND phone.
My Q: What would be the easiest way to go about getting that fixed? My guess would be to replace the baseband with one that won't lock out the LTE at the software level.
If you unlock the bootloader you can try the Telus firmware but I am sure there are others using the Wind mobile phone on Telus/Bell/Rogers/Fido/Koodo etc and they all get LTE just fine.
Have you tried resetting the phone to default?

After backing everything up, a factory restore did it. I think I spent far too long overthinking this. Thanks for the info everyone!
Hi
I have a sprint m7 with the latest cyangenmod and i would like to be able to activate it on t-mobile or att i have the msl code but cant get it to prompt for it or pick up signal!
Please help me activating my phone!
As far as I know Sprint M7's cannot be unlocked to work on domestic carriers.
Even if i have the msl and the radio bands are correct?
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
