I am planning on getting GoSmart Mobile but I want to know if I can manually provision my phone to access they're internet. I am currently using MetroPCS for example, but you can provison the phone to take advantage of Picture Mail and 3G which runs off of CDMA so can you do the same type of thing with GSM with companies like T-Mobile or GoSmart?
Lol no.

no need to be a jerk about it, but thanks anyway!
My bad dude. Didn't mean to come off that way. Gsm is totally different band and so no. Att tmobile etc gsm and Verizon sprint etc use cdma.

I have the sprint S 3 but there's no 4gLTE in my area, would I be able to get the international version and use that on the sprint network? Cause lte is the reason you can't use the quad core right?

Any info bout the lte?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
The international version doesn't have CDMA radios.
Lte will be rolling through the country later on. Get the quad if you don't want to wait til that happens

No no no, it won't work. Sprint uses CDMA radios, the international has GSM radios. You misunderstood.
Sprint is cdma but LTE is GSM technology. Just to complicate things.....

But the international has no LTE. So it will absolutely not work on Sprint.

I so agree with you!!! I want to go to ATT or TMobile because they're GSM Networks but Sprint is giving me a crazy deal that I could never drop.

In much of the US CDMA coverage is superior to GSM coverage. I almost never do not have at least CDMA for voice. When I was with ATT on a GSM phone that was definitely not the case.
Well maybe TMobile is better. I find with Sprint. I only get service in about 60% of the places I go

Sprint evo 3d to assurance (vigin mobile )
So if this is not appropriate please remove.
I know someone who has little money and is on assurance a plan from virgin Mobile. I would like to give them a sprint evo 3d to use with only voice and maybe text. They could use wifi if wanted and use the camera on the phone. Can anyone help or point me in the right direction to port the phone?
Thanks in advance
I don't think you can flash an e3D to virgin mobile

Virgin sells reflashed evo 3d 's as evo v's (mine says Sprint instead of virgin).
Whether you can flash it using just the virgin RUU I have no idea.

They only allow their phones on their network as determined by the ESN. So even though they sell 3ds with the Sprint logo, they are not interchangeable. Changing ESNs is illegal in the US and is not discussed on XDA.

I have the same goal as the OP but will work with any cheap prepaid carrier. Not interested in a data plan
. Any ideas?
2 questions...
1st, I live in a non 4G area. Is it possible to get on a different carrier's 4G? Or just switch to 3g when roaming?
2nd, a friend has a straight talk phone. Is that possible to switch to my sprint plan? I have a phone on standby and I'm trying to use it up.
Thanks XDA

I don't think you can roam on another carrier's network since they use different LTE spectrum bands like 800,1900,700 etc. Sprint uses 1900 MHz LTE

To answer the second question, no, Sprint will only activate phones in their database which are Sprint branded phones.

I don't think you can since they don't have any 4g roaming contracts with other carriers and since other carriers use different bands of lte

It's still going to run on Sprints network, but its a ton cheaper.

Even cheaper than ting & still running on Sprint network with Lte is Straight talk. I've had success with them.

You could flash it to Page Plus Cellular. It's a prepaid service provider that runs off of Verizon towers with good service and ridiculously reasonable plan prices that can be changed monthly depending on your needs. That's what my husband and I have ours on.
