Does Root Affect Sprint Compatibility? - HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G

I am very interested in purchasing this tablet rooted. I need to work on Sprint's network. Will rooting affect its Sprint network programming (meaning would I be able to put the device on Sprint's network)? Thank you.

No just rooting your view won't effect any of that. You should be fine.

Htc rezound on boost mobile

Wondering if anyone has confirmed this phone on Boost mobile, would love to use it at a cheaper plan then Verizon.

Doubt it would work.
I'm pretty sure you can't flash a phone with a sim card to another provider. Atleast not with pageplus here.

The SIM is just for LTE though. Not too sure how that would limit the CDMA part from working. The OG Inc was able to go onto boost. There's a thread about it in the Inc general forum.
Not saying it would work, just wondering what would inhibit it from working.

You can flash it and it would work just fine on any CDMA network.
You need to take it to someone that knows how to reprogram it by writing the NVs.
Once you do that you won't need the LTE sim card.
Its real simple. Trust me.

I stand corrected. Apologies.

You'd lose LTE obviously but 3g would still work.

Where is this thread your referring too?
Has anyone successfully ported a Rezound over to boost mobile.
I have one and would be very interested..
Currently using an EVO 4g on boost. But the Rezound would be much better..

If you wanted to go to like T-Mobile or sprint, then there might be interest.

Inc 2 to Thunderbolt: VZW Q:

Family member gave me their Thunderbolt, I now have the Incredible 2., which is 3G. I have an unlimited data plan for some time. If I drop my sim into the thunderbolt and activate is it going to wreck my plan and put me on the new tiered system?
No and the sim from the dinc2 is worthless in a thunderbolt. That's a gsm sim. I came to the thunderbolt from the dinc2 and I still have unlimited data

Maybe call vzw and ask just to be sure but I believe it only applies if you use an upgrade and buy the tbolt from them. Because anyone can buy a phone from anywhere ie(craigslist,ebay,etc) and put it on there lime as long as the ran is clean. But like I said check with them to be safe.

It shouldn't mess with your plan, but you will need a different sim that will allow you to get the 4G lte network.
Like he said above, the sim you currently have is useless.

Thanks guys! Where would I find that SIM?
Just walk into Verizon and they should just give you one. They shouldn't really ask any questions, but if they do, just tell them you picked it up used and just need a sim card for it.

It may cost you $25 to pick one up
And btw you should ROOT The tbolt

Sims are free for VZW customers. You have to get it from a corporate store or order it though because the licensed retailers will charge for it.

Can I Unlock Without an AT&T Account???

I'm thinking of buying a used one of these off craigslist ... but I'm on tmobile and I'm worried that I won't be able to unlock it without having an AT&T account first .... Can I unlock one of these without having an AT&T account? Most steps I've read talk about downloading an unlocker program from the market ... but without an AT&T sim card in the phone I don't think I'll be able to access the market ...
What do you all think?
You don't have to have cell network to connect to a wifi and log into market. You will need to root it also before those apps will work. Just fyi though. You will NOT get 3g/4g on T-Mobile

3g/4g only involve data speeds, right? I have wifi at home and at work and do not use a data plan ... So I can root and then unlock on my home wifi without any AT&T account?
I see no reason you can't. I have done lots of phones that way.

Absolutely nothing considering unlocking the 2 phones is a completely different process. On the i777 we can do it with root only. We don't have to call at&t

There was another thread where someone said he couldn't get lte no matter what he did. He tried different ROM/radio combos. I've been using an unlocked optimus g for the past month now on T-Mobile but we don't have lte in Florida yet , hopefully next month.
I hope it works for you because according to the specs of our phone it should.

When i get HSPA, I can pull 13mb/s download, 3 mb/s upload. But the 1900 mhz, is not in all places where I live. So I get those speeds, or Edge. Sucks. I don't recommend trying to pull up Google Map to look for something on Edge, it's slow.

Finally T-Mobile Htc One on MetroPCS

I finally got my T-Mobile htc one on MetroPCS on $60.00 a month account with Taxes and fees included on the same payment, I'm now saving $15.00 and I'm on T-Mobile network but on MetroPCS payment plans everything working Voice over Gsm, 4g over UMTS HSPS+, 4G LTE. With great data speeds.
But there's one flaw!!! WIFI CALLING IS NOT WORKING...

It won't work either for one of two reasons
First it works strictly thru tmobile SIM card , even tho you get tmo lte
Second the WiFi calling error means that you have to add update 911 address under your My T-Mobile account and then it works
I don't believe using a metro SIM In any tmo Device will get WiFi calling ever ,mainly cause it's alot to do with the tmo sim service the Main reachable service is still metro towers that's why .

I am wanting to set this up too. Metro PCS has good service in my area but they said they're having trouble with the GSM phones connecting to their 4G LTE network. T-Mobile's voice and text work great where I'm at and my brother is on Metro with one of their CDMA phones and his service works well. I literally just got my HTC One today and so far at my house I'm only getting 'G' which I assume is 1x or Edge service correct? When I reboot the phone and it initially connects to 4G and then drops it. I'm wondering if I take it to Metro and have them put it on their network if the 4G will work better? I wouldn't think it would impact it that much though. I have 30 days to try it out before I lose out on being able to return it and I'm all about saving money so switching to Metro is a big deal to me but I need my 4G too!

I'm no longer in Metropcs CDMA or Their Ericsson LTE network. I'm now on T-Mobile Gsm and LTE network under Nokia but with Metropcs Account. 2 different networks, so that means when you where on MetroPCS cdma and LTE you where on their original lte footprint with Ericsson lte sites, tmobile is planning to unite Metropcs lte with tmobile Nokia lte. But it will take some time.

Thats kool it is something you could have done setup from phone at home in 3 minutes tho...just sayin...
Glad it worked tho.
So to sum it up your saying you get actual tmobile WiFi calling with a actual metro 4g SIM card in a tMobile device ?
Not the same WiFi calling as my metro but I mean the tmobile exclusive WiFi calling .
That's very weird that that works using a metro SIM ..cause it's suppose to be a tmo sim cars thing also that has a lot to do with how it works .
