No.the reason for the numbers is because its originally a Verizon ported room meaning that when you roam it directs you to Verizons towers. Thus giving you a Verizon roam code.

private number?

i know this is prob a silly question but can anyone tell me how to make my number permanently restricted/private? don't know if it matters but i'm fully rooted and running deck's 1.1 (soon to be upgraded) with cm7 kernel

I think sprint can do that if you call customer sercice. Never checked if there is a setting in the os its self. Or you can just press *67 before dialing a number each time.

If you want it permanently blocked you can do it from your account on sprint.com. you just go to "changes to my services." Or something similar on the right side of the screen.

No you can't get rid of it, just have to wait until the next billing cycle.

We used to have a fix for this but T-Mobile closed it quick.
T-Mobile also pays attention to XDA threads, by the way.
I thought I saw a thread on resetting your apn (ie do a search for network)or something along those lines

Yeah, that will actually work for a while. So will changing your apn to voicestream. You'll have to reset every time you reboot or use wifi but it does in fact work

Why does my hotspot change from 4g to 3g?

Hi my hotspot always changes from 4g to 3g why is this and how do I get it to stay on im using the classic rom from tt with underworld kernel
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
If your talking about the hacked Sprint hotspot it never worked with 4g. You have to use a 3rd party app to tether 4g. I use WiFi tether for root users. If you google it you should find it

Roaming

if i purchase roam control will i get fast 3g while roaming on verizons network or will it be slow. currently now when my phone goes into roaming i get very slow 3g data even if i have full bars
I always wondered how this works too
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
You have to use a prl that supports 3g roaming also. If your just using the prl that came with the phone then your prob only roaming on 1x even though the phone says 3g. Theres lots of threads on this matter however u might find some helpful info in this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1906471 btw.....LTE roaming is impossible.
Besides roam control is there any other way to force roaming??

By loading a VZW PRL. There's a thread in the dev section with a bunch of them.

Or manually force your phone to only use the 850mhz band, which is basically what Roam Control does on the S3.
and how do i do that? can you please provide a link

After Jb OTA am getting 4G in status bar when Orange needs 3 years to provide it!

How could this happen!! My phone is a T-Mobile T999 unlocked and working on Jordanian Orange. According to orange they will begin providing 4g in 2015 yet in status bar I see that am connected to 4g. Could the T-Mobile build be exaggerating figures ??

Mine always shows 4g...Although truly I am not always connected to 4g.
Just run a speed test and you will see.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Most phones would show H or H+. The T999 was coded to show 4G instead, in keeping with their ad campaign.
If you go into settings, about device, status, under network type itll say UMTS at idle and probably HSPAP when under load.
