Sprint doesnt use sim cards i think is what he meant.. sprint stoped years ago. And if iphone 5 uses sim card, just shows apples a cheap f thats to lazy to make a sprint version

Ya that's the Jist of it. Figures its iCrap related. Of course the iphone can have a sim on sprints network, While everyone else cant

Sims are way more secure also.. but also makes phone companys lose money.. dont have to activate when you take your sim out of a 10 year old phone and put it in a new phone

S3 4g wimax or lte?

I have been looking for a galaxy s3 to replace my e4gt flashed to page plus.... And i talked to a guy in class today wanting to sell his. Idk how muxh but i was looking. No sim card slot? So does that mean s3 4g is wimax like e4gt or is it lte and maybe sim is locked inside phone needing disassembly to get out?

The US Sprint GS3 SIM card is not removable its on the inside of the phone if I remember correctly. And is/will never be capable of receiving WiMax 4G just LTE.

Not worried about it.. Just curious if i could simply flash to page plus like the e4gt... Or if i have to lock it into 3g only mode and such

Straight talk LTE

Started talking about this in another thread.
As of this afternoon my gs3 on straight talk with AT&T sim has gotten LTE. No clue why. I was having trouble with mms and talked to straight talk CS yesterday and he mentioned my account had some discrepancies between the front end and back end of the network and they would work on it. Today, boom LTE.

T-mobile sim card

Hello everyone. I added a new line and picked up a note 3 and I noticed the sim card has ISIS on the back of it. Is does this mean NFC payments can be made with the sim card. If so think I should get a new one for my other phone?
Here is a pic:

That's if the store has them in stock. I moved from prepaid to postpaid last weekend and they had to give me a new SIM card, which was the normal one. I think T-Mobile is just preparing for ISIS to become official and ready to use by putting these new SIM cards in these new phones starting with the Note 3. I left mine alone since ISIS isn't even officially out yet nationwide.
I swapped to isis sim and isis app works...

Carrier unlock sprint version?

Is there anyway? or no?
Not like GSM phones with a SIM card, but you can flash it to prepaid carriers such as Boost, Virgin Mobile, Page Plus, Ting, and others. There are guides in the General section on how to do this.

Which carrier are you interested in going with? Straight Talk now has a program called 'Bring Your Own Phone' and they let you bring certain devices from other networks over to their network with no hassle. I was searching for ways to flash my old Sprint Epic 4G Touch to Straight Talk last night, and then discovered that all you have to do is call them, pay a network access fee ($15) and they'll activate it on their network.
Don't quote me on this, but I think the $15 is for an "activation" and it is $50 to flash over. That is how it was for cricket at least, but I flashed it by myself for the person I sold the phone to. Honestly not near as hard as I thought it would be,

3G not working

I have a T Mobile Galaxy Note 2 SGH-T889 and I live in Pakistan. I use a network service here called Ufone. It's frequency band is 2100MHZ.

My phone is compatible but even after inserting the correct APN settings, 3G doesn't work on my phone, only 2G does. A computer guy said he'll install something, it'll take about 15-20 minutes and it'll be all good then but he asked me to come next week. I can't wait a whole week :/ there's no hardware issue though.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,

You need to get the phone unlocked.
I got it unlocked a long time ago.
