I have a friend of mine that was told that he could get 4g on his evo. Apparently they can do this, does anyone knows if this is possible? And if it is, how? THANKS.

clearwire maybe, boost doesn't offer 4g to my knowledge, what was his starter phone
Yes you can
Just turn on the 4g on your evo and you will get the 4g of sprint. The problem with this is that you will have to pay for it ($50 a month for only 1.5GB)

How are you going to activate the EVO 4G on Verizon? As for flashing roms, they *should* have no effect on the PRL.

Won't happen. The DOJ, and FCC would have a very tough time approving it. Much less getting it past Congress. Too close to an election year. Plus if that were to happen then only thing you'll notice is possibly better reception, and a different looking invoice. Why do you think Chrysler still exists?

To answer your question, no. Flashing a different ROM won't effect your PRL.
However, it will effect your APN settings for sure. There may be other settings that would be effected as well. Google around for threads about people using Evos on PagePlus. Since it is a Verizon MVNO any of the things that would affect an Evo on PagePlus would effect an Evo on Verizon. *228 may fix some of those issues automatically with Verizon where it wouldn't with PagePlus.
Wondering how you're getting Verizon to accept your Evo in their system, how you're flashing the data settings, and why you're not getting a Thunderbolt instead since it is basically a spiced-up Evo.

Hello guys, I was watching a video on YouTube about flashing the EVO 2 BOOST MOBILE , but they didn't say how, so is there a way or a program to do that and is it legal or illegal?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I'm just guessing but I doubt it. Boost mobile phones use a SIM card. And when you register your phone with their network it asks for the SIM card number.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
In short no. Unfortunately the only way to get an evo on boost is by doing a esn clone which is a felony and even talkmg about it here will get you banned. Your best bet is metropcs or cricket. I have my evo on metropcs and i couldnt be happier. But keep in mind with either metro or cricket there will be no 4g or 3g only 1xrtt which is abot 80-120kb/s.
I know its not the answer your looking for but i hope it was helpful.
Also sprint and boost are borh cdma, and sprint owns boost, so no boost does not use a sim card.

Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Boost uses both, sim card network (old Nextel band) and cdma (regular sprint band)...all depends on which phone you have. And yes, you can program an Evo to work on boost. But, it is not officially allowed and an esn clone is necessary. Not to mention the programming is complicated and is not something the average phone user should attempt. Hope this answers your question.

Sorry I misspoke, I should have specified that it is capable of 3g, if your in a 3g market, (which sadly im not)....Unless Daytona Beach is 3g and I just did something wrong...? any hope on that one...
But, I do know that 4g is not possible due to the fact that the EVO uses WiMax and MetroPCS is LTE.
Can you get 4g on stock with the incredible?

Don't believe so. Our phone does not have the chip nor can it handle the 4G capability. Not that the phones that offer 4G cam handle it too well either.

Sorry to burst your bubble. But the captivate isn't 4G. The only 4G LTE phones VZW has now are the HTC Thunderbolt, Samsung Droid Charge, and the LG Revolution.
I'm just waiting for a dual core LTE phone. But I'm in no hurry, upgrade isn't till middle of next year.

lol, i agree
but, no, the incredible is a 3G Smartphone, as it says on the box, no way to make it 4g connectable
as said before, Verizon does have another 4g phone on the way (the bionic) but, as of right now, they only have 3 on sale.
troll much? "yeah, I have H on my captivate". Who cares

yeah but some people don't even know the first thing about the iPhone's operating system let alone android.
i just love how iPhone users come to me with my rooted droid inc, and all like "i have the 3 gees and i have the wifi, and stuff" and continue to blab about crap they have no idea how to work. i mean, if you have it, fine, just don't try to talk to me about the phone and "how it works, and i am a developer" when you don't even know how to make phonecalls on the damn thing.
If I buy a 4g phone online without a contract on verizon, do I have to upgrade to a 4g plan or can I stay on my current 3g plan?
should just be able to keep you're 3G plan.. the 4G is just an added benefit. you just wont get 4G service if you dont have the 4G plan

I don't believe there are any 3g or 4g plans, just data plans in general ? I'm pretty sure if you bought a 4g off contract and you activated it should work np.
Yeah, when I got my Inc 2 the plans and prices were identical to the 4g thunder I just got this cause my area has no 4g and won't for a long time...

What does this have to do with the dinc2
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda premium
The only thing that is different is you have to purchase a 4g sim card. You have the 3g rtr removed and replaced by 4g. You can still switch back and forth but each time will take a visit to a store. If you just swap via myverizon it can make your 4g card unusable. The rep has to mark the card as reusable each time. If you are going 4g it would be best to just stay 4g due to the headaches.

Verizon ended telling me if I were to have a 4g phone is have to pay a seperate 4g data fee on $10 on top of my normal data plan.. maybe they just don't like me.. I dunno

The 4g phones cannot run on 3g alone. They have to be activated with a sim card.

As far as I am aware, Verizon will not activate an Epic 4G on their network. They'll use some excuse that it isn't in their system, and since it isn't as simple as swapping a SIM card, I'm afraid you're at their mercy.
YMMV, of course, but I wouldn't bank on it.

I know of a different story. I know that v was tooling up for a byod campaign a while back. I heard u can take a device to v from sprint. My personal expierence is sprint will not let non sprint devices on the network. I tried really hard once

Sorry for the misinformation. The guy who told me they were headed towards a byod system said afahk you can't port sprint devices to v. Technically 1000% possible. Policies prohibit it seems
