I saw a great deal on ebay of Galaxy S III phone with bad esn. Just wanted to know is it possible to buy a verizon locked bad esn phone and then unlock using code from internet and then use in it GSM networks of India?
Just curious to know can bad esn locked phones be unlocked in 1st case?
sup guys,
I was thinking about getting a DNA and I found one with a bad esn. I've been reading around that the DNA comes factory unlocked for GSM carriers, so I was thinking if a DNA with a bad esn would work right out if i pop in an at&t sim card or an international sim card?

yes its comes GSM Unlocked so if your getting a phone with a bad ESN , i think it wont work in US , but will definitely work with International carriers !

A bad esn is a cdma thing, gms carriers don't ban, very rarely should i say. so yes pop in a sim and your good to go.
Good day folks,
I have purchased a 900p from a friend in USA for a good deal, the problem is that the phone has a bad ESN and was for sprint, I was wondering if i take this phone to Vietnam will it with with any regular sim card? I'm not expecting any thing fancy like 4g or LTE in VN but I just want to know if this phone will work in VN, I've read from multiple sources that the 900p is internationally unlocked but is locked for domestic US sims, can any one verify if that is true? also aware I might not be able to do a SPRINT SIM unlock because of the BAD ESN. Any one have any suggestions?

It won't work in VN unless you ask sprint to unlock the international sim lock.But they won't help you because yours is a bad ESN one.
Just waiting for heros to work out how to unlock without sprint's help.
OK so after one 2 many beers I purchased a sm-n900p off EBay on sprint. I am based in UK and we use GSM. Only just realised the handset is CDMA. Am I now stuck with a useless phone or is there anyway I can flash it or do anything for my O2 sim card to work on it?
smilar problem

There is currently no way to unlock the phone for international SIM without being a Sprint customer and having the phone activated on an account.

can you explain more regarding having sprint customer?
from a lot of forum threads i'm getting Bias information:
so, It is possible to use GSM international but nobody can do that unless Sprint authorize person do something to the phone or account?
so Unlocked version doesn't exit? or what Unlocked mean on SM-N900P?

the phone can only be unlocked for International SIM cards by Sprint, and for this to be able to be done, the phone has to be activated on a Sprint account. this is the ONLY unlock method currently available for this particular Note 3 model (Sprint variant, SM-N900P)
Can't get 4GLTE with att on my RS988, only get H. And way around this. APN looks good.....
Contact att to change your imei to your old phones imei.
I had to buy a prepaid ATT GoPhone that had the same SIM card size and supported LTE, activate my ATT service on that, then once it showed LTE, I swapped the SIM card into my G5 and it worked. I called ATT previous to this trick and they told me I was SOL if the automated IMEI LTE enabler check doesn't work. This workaround worked for me!

IMEI is like a serial number. You can't change the IMEI of a phone without some major hacking, its set in the hardware.
Its certainly not something a carrier is going to do.
I literally bought my phone, popped int he SIM and BAM LTE, no changes necessary, I also bought my LG G5 RS988 Straight from Amazon.
What's your network and does it work with voice + data simultaneously?
sprint lg g5 unlocked
Facing a similar situation I have a sprint lg g5 and I'm using t mobile service but I only get H. Previous owner was getting lte but he doesnt know how. He was also on t-mobile.e
