All you have to do is unroot and go back to stock and make up some crap.
I have had many phones that I have gotten replaced through Tmobile from craigslist.
As long as it is a Tmobile device and you have not tampered with it and there is no physical damage your warranty will still be good.

Any help

You will need your own 4g sim card to activate the phone, but Verizon shouldn't charge you for one. They gave me mine for free.
Well okay thanks I think I am going to buy a new one from wire fly to be grandfathered in for unlimited 4g

I'm thinking of going to Straight Talk from AT&T. So you are using the AT&T sim you got from Straight Talk, right? Not AT&T? Does the phone have to be unlocked? It's my understanding it does not. Is everything exactly the same as on AT&T service? (That might be a dumb question.)
Damn I want straight talk now.

U buy a straight talk sim from the online store. The phone has to be be an att phone or a world phone like a galaxy nexus or international note. Everything is the exact same as att IMHO. Just no lte.

Me too T-Mobile speeds suck. But is expected. But I have 5GB UNLIMITED and am no where near the brink. I need my 4g speeds I only use my phablet for data and skype to make calls.

Which would be the cheapest route? I just want data.
Here's a few from straight talk on att... Running great!

[Q]Bad ESN work on Virgin?

My brother is thinking of getting an EVO 3D off ebay and it has a bad ESN but he wants to use it with Virgin mobile would that work or once it's a bad ESN it doesn't work with any provider?
Need to switch it with a new one... Which is illegal. Though I do have a broken virgin Android phone with a good esn
Sent from my SGH-T769 using XDA
Hmm illegal eh? Seems like he shouldn't get it then ha. Thanks for the quick answer.
A Bad ESN shouldn't activate ither way :-/

He seems convinced he can do it -_-

Some providers will allow and network compatible phone on like boost. Virgin only allows web from phones they sold, so whether it's a good or bad sen does not matter. It has to be one in their system. As mentioned, you'd have to change the esn which is illegal. Possible yes, illegal yes.

you can check easy online when you login to your account, you never lose your phone
my contract with telus shows 9 months left and 0$ device balance, so in reality i could upgrade to a new phone at any point without being charged because device balance is 0
Oh so if I pay mine off they won't acclaim an take back the phone?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
If you pay off the phone, that means the phone is yours. They can't take it back.
Even if you haven't paid off your phone and want to end the contract, they won't take your phone back. They will make you pay the remaining balance on the phone.
Oh alright I understand now. Thanks guys
