Hello everyone I canceled my contact with t mobile shortly after I got my vibrant because I could not afford the plan due to reasons I rather not say . About a week later I found out about simple mobile which runs off t mobiles network but alot cheaper and ordered a sim and everything was working fine for two months until about a week ago my phone said no service and it said my sim wasn't allowed to connect to the network thinking it was a sim card issue I ordered another simple mobile sim and it still says no service only thing simple mobile could tell me is the imei might be blocked so my question is is this even possible I thought blacklisting the imei didn't happen in the states . Thanks to all that can help

Anyone with advice ?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
it is possible and probable
I have friends that still work at t-mobile. If you owe on a device and the device is not payed off on the account they can blacklist the IMEI and shut the phone down from operating anywhere else. they just started doing a few months ago. inly option is to pay off your bill with tmobile. then the blacklist will be removed. From my understanding its only if you didn't pay off the device.. so all these cool payment plans can screw you anyways,
if you cancel service with a provider within 30-90 days sometimes longer depending on if it was a direct or indirect dealer you are usually required to pay retail value or return the phone. Otherwise yah this happens.
Ok thanks guys for the advice is it possible to unlock it and use it on at&t prepaid

Finally. I'm sorry but deadbeats shouldn't be allowed to get over, you knew you couldn't afford to pay for the phone.
I could haved afforded it if my little girl didn't have osgood schlatters disease and her braces for her knees and medicine wansnt 2600 a month . So please don't contribute to the form if you have nothing positive to say

You didn't know this when you bought the phone? So you couldn't sell the phone and pay your final bill? Sureeeeeeeeeeee! It doesn't make sense to me, and you are a deadbeat. You don't pay your bills and from the sound of it, you had to have known you couldn't pay the bill.
I need the phone for my work . I plan on paying off the bill in full as I have set up a payment plan to pay off the bill and the situation with my child didn't occur until I had the phone for a week or so , it was unexpected . You have no right to judge me as anything honestly you don't know my situation I'm in .i have perfect credit and every bill I have is paid on time but that was something I could not control .

14 day return period in every state except for CA. Who is judging you? You didn't pay the bill (definition of deadbeat regardless of any reason you have) and you had plenty of time to return the phone like I suspected.
Yes I could have returned it but I was willing just to pay the termination fee and keep the phone so I could use the phone as I need it for work and can't be without a phone for that reason . So mods can we close this thread now because it has gone completely off topic

You're the one who seems to want help circumventing the carriers restriction on your IMEI preventing you from using your phone on any carrier that uses Tmobile.
It sounds to many of us like you got the phone really cheap & decided that you'd just pay the $250 ETA and keep the phone without realizing you'd need to pay the bill as well. End result sounds like you wanted a new phone for ~350 rather than paying retail like people like myself did.
Regardless, you were trying to do something shady & if you came on here & wanted to get around the unlock screen, you'd probably be getting flamed about as much.
Anyways, if you haven't upgraded to JI6, you should be able to unlock the phone for free [if it isn't already], otherwise, you'd need to buy an unlock code from someplace like ebay. Once you're unlocked, you can use use it on AT&T as long as Tmo doesn't share that info with them (which, who knows, they might).
Hi guys,
I upgraded my plan and got OSGSII from an AT&T store.
The person said that it requires at least 2 GB data plan for at least 6 months.
I simply said okay there, but at home, I could not find anything related to that matter.
So I am suspecting that he was making me pay extra 10 bucks for nothing since I do not use 4G that much.
I wanted to confirm with the xda community. Any thoughts on this?
With a smartphone you are required to purchase a data plan

You were misguided by the representative.
You need a data plan, but you can definitely get the 200MB plan.
It does not required the 2Gb plan. you can choose to go with the 200MB for $15/month. what that sales rep said is bs. You can make the changes from your account online if you like.

I think it is more on the 200mb plan to encourage users to pick the 2gb.
Sort of off topic but is there a way to get into an unlimited plan?

Everyone have unlimited data. You just have to pay for it if you go over your tired plan.
Unlimited is no longer offered however you can apparently use a Iphone 2g, activate it and get the unlimited edge plan, then use a newer phone and upgrade the plan to unlimited.
Personal accounts with smartphones will require a minimum plan of
$15 for 200MB of data at which it's an additional $15 for another 200MB if you go over.
You can also do $25 for 2GB, $10 for an additional 1GB if you go over.
$45 for 4GB+tethering, $10 for an additional 1GB if you go over.
In some cases, some business accounts will only allow for a $25 data plan for the smartphones on it.
And yes, there's a way to get unlimited

Lmao, didn't read other replies but he was probably lying to you. If it was a third party retailer, he may have been telling the truth (Often they screw you by requiring certain plans, give you a cheaper phone, but giving it to you doggie style while forcing you into a plan that you don't need and charging you hundreds of dollars if you change it). If it was a core store, we get chargebacks if something is changed in a negative way within the first 6 months, so that's a possibility. They'll often add additional features, extra late / ETF's, etc.
So yeah, phones may b e cheaper at a third party, but often times you're forced into something far more expensive. If he was a corporate AT&T rep though, I suggest you not only speak to his manager, but go above and beyond that and find out who the area / director is.

Randomly though, if you have any form of discount that's above 10%, the 2gb plan is the way to go. Most people use 400+ MB so it makes sense.. I sorta feel like if people are using less than 200mb, they either spend their entire time at home or work with a wifi connection, or they shouldn't have a smartphone.

Go on eBay and search unlimited data at. I use someone with reef in his name, it takes about a day and was kind of a hassel but surely enough I have unlimited data now for $30 a month. There is an xda thread under the Motorola atrix about it also.

Yeah i don't think it matters going to a COR location or authorized retailer, as long as it's not Walmart or Radio Shack, it's dependent on your rep, and some reps truly don't give a ****. COR reps are in a union tho so they really have to mess up to get fired.
Basically, unless you're under specific restrictions which i can't imagine a single scenario OR on a business account specifically requiring the larger data plan, you can have which ever you want!

Are you still a kid, a pupil, a student?
'Cuz if you are a working man, here's the time
7am: wake up, doing personal stuff, drinking coffee, watching TV and use wifi to access internet.
9am: start driving to work. You know that you should NEVER surf webs or play game while driving, right?
At work: you either
a. spend 8 hours working
b. using company wifi.
7pm: driving home. R u watching Netflix while driving?
At home: hello, wifi
Midnite: sleeping time.
Weekend? even more wifi.
Me, personally, don't know why people spend a lot of mobile data unless they live in the area that don't have wifi.
I personally find it impossible to use less than 500mb a month even if i'm being frugal. The 2GB plan is the best choice unless you physically disable data and only enable it when needed.

I'm not on pre-paid services. Im on a 2 yr. Contract.My credit is on the line.

No,idk about...i tried asking about that...my spending limit is 150.... My regular bill is usually around $90 but I had got the photon beginning of april, so they added $36 for activation fee.
Which brings me close to my spending limit but not over. I paid $100 the other day. Not the full amount.yes I know that but why try to shut off my services over $30.
But I'm glad so many people love sprint and their services. I for one am not happy with it but I still pay them.

I have not missed a payment. just didnt pay the full amount, which was $30 from may 2nd. New bill cycle is on the 8th. But isn't due till june 2nd. So that makes jun2nd bill like $120. Spending limit not reached.

Spending limit? What is that? I have had $1,000+ monthly bills (always paid on time) and never had my service threatened.
If you didn't pay the full amount I can see why they would shut off your service. Not everything is free buddy. Grow up and be responsible for your actions. Stop *****ing like a little kid.

Alright so I know this question is asked often, but I've only been able to find old answers or answers related to other odd services and other phones.
Is anyone using google voice to avoid using ANY minutes?
I swear I had it working but it could have been my imagination...
I just checked my phone minutes and I'm already over 9 days into the period (on a 200 minute plan) There are a lot of 1 minute calls, which make some sense if it's GV placing the call and then switching to data since I know the numbers listed acording to verizon are GV routing numbers and not real numbers I'm dialing... everytime I answer a call I get a prompt from GV asking to press one to accept a call (could be different now as far as I know since i've stopped listening to the message a long time ago)
So anyone on the rezound have success with this? I'm considering doing a 4g data only plan until my contract is out and then moving to a 45 unlimited prepaid GSM service... I'm tired of paying 100+ a month for a smartphone, and with unlimited data being axed... F U VERIZON YOU FAT COW!!!
yeah.. i do this all the time on my data-only tablets.
you need sipdroid, google-voice, and a magic jack.
I believe they require voice service on phones.
I use all data. Use groove ip It's a really worthwhile buy. Pm me if you need instructions on pure Google voice calling .

Verizon won't let you do a data-only plan on a phone. You HAVE to have a voice plan. I know it sucks. I can literally go a month and use 0 minutes on my phone but I still had to pay $40 for the 450 minute plan.

There is a legacy 200 minute plan... it's not advertised but if you're consistently using no minutes ask them for it
just curious why so many do this. You have to have a voice plan on your phone, you get free mobile to mobile, and on my plan I also can add 10 land lines to it that don't count against me.
Why jump through the hoops when you don't have to?
My main reason to not use google voice/talk for voice and texting is that I have 2 kids on the acct and I want it as simple as possible for them.
I didn't know there was a 200 minute plan, I think the most I've used that counted towards my minutes is about 100... The only thing that counts is calling a landline during the day. Most months I use only 50 minutes or less even though I probably use the phone close to an hour a day on average or more.
I like using google voice for voice nail but everything sounds so bad usually. It is the same way when making calls?
well this isn't going to be good for some of us....

I don't really feel sorry for those who use 100+ GB/month. Those are the users that prompted the removal of the unlimited plans to start with. You can scream "unlimited is unlimited" if you want but its Verizon's sandbox and they make the rules.

Agreed...there comes a point (about 100 GB a month) where it becomes an "unjust enrichment" for the end user....and this is why we cannot have nice things lol
I'm surprised Verizon didn't go the route of...well the unlimited data plan started in the days of 2G/3G only...so that's the only unlimited data you get...when you are on 2G/3G.
Maybe I shouldn't give them any ideas... :/
agreed. I live out in the boonies, I am on 1x and sometimes 3g. my internet is only dsl at 2.5Mbps (3g speeds) ... so whenever I hit 4g on my phone, I do everything with it. so i sometimes rack up 70gb+ a month. especially when im at work ..teamviewer, netflix, streaming cameras setup at various locations, music is always going, showbox, kodi (tends to use a lot more data than other streaming apps)... the data rack up quick.
Has anyone actually reported receiving a letter yet ?
I use it as primary internet. Been paying for it for so long. Screw paying $60+ a month for cable that is the same speed but doesn't offer the same capabilities that cellular data does. I rack up over 100gb a month but it's a business account so i doubt they will cut me off.
The fcc does nothing about the internet monopoly in my area because it's not considered a monopoly because wireless internet is considered an option. When verizon charges what they do for internet it clearly isn't an option. We all know verizon can afford to give you more GB's at a lower price.
Most of the infrastructure is already in place and they are paying purely for maintenance at this point. And when they are talking about faster speeds with xlte and lte-a they are expecting you to use more data but have no plans on reducing the cost per gb. Faster speeds means a larger resource pool to tap into. The excuse that heavy udp users are decreasing the speeds for others is basically a thing of the past at this point.
Honestly it's all bs marketing and political manipulation. Tell me why countries in the EU can offer unlimited lte data for 35 euoros a month, which people use as their primary internet source, if this isn't the case?

Wait a second, I am currently experience a minor heart attack! They are CANCELING your UDP?!
I have not received a letter regarding this, is anyone else receiving this letter?

I average 12GB/month (which is NOT heavy use at all) and received my letter informing my UDP is being terminated as of Feb 16. I have complained to both of my local stores and the customer service call center to no avail. I was told that once the letter was sent my fate was sealed.

I read online last night T-Mobile has been gaining twice as many new customers as Verizon since Verizon's been pulling their $*it.

They will regret it, T-Mobiles service, at least here is so spotty its not even worth paying for. When my wife had it she had to use my wifi tethering just to use her phone half the time we went anywhere.
200gb a month is plenty, but the problem is the price of the new plans they want you on. Id never pay those rediculous prices.
But unlimited should be unlimited, i understand that too, but 500gb people... Come on now, that is a little excessive. I don't even come close to that downloading movies all day on my home cable network. So i can see where verizon is coming from. Fair usage.
I am sticking with my Verizon UDP for now, but i have also bought my wife a new phone on at&t's DirecTV unlimited plan that's up to 4 devices just incase verizon pulls out more bs. Figured id jump on that and get grandfathered on that also, since in my area at&t is second best if not identical to Verizon's coverage.
Sprint and T-Mobile are out if the question for me, been there done that.

I agree with you on that one, 200GB/month is a bit excessive and almost abusive to the network load. But for those of us that use 12GB and end up getting our plans yanked from us is insulting. I know I purposefully sought out wifi wherever I could to keep unnecessary use of network resources to a minimum. This is the thanks I was given for my consideration.
To say I feel insulted is putting it lightly.

Oh I feel insulted for you as well. 12GB is not that bad at all. I average 45gb and have not received a letter yet. This whole ordeal is ridiculous. I would rather they implement a cap on the unlimited, like say 100GB or even 40GB and then slow us way down instead of just straight up removing us.
