Yes... I am on sero and have a galaxy nexus. You can't do it in store and you can't do a normal activation online. You have to call employee services much like you did to upgrade to sero premium.

When did you start your contract and if you keep pushing it you can but is a lot calls for it to get you out free in the other hand the price of the GN should be enough to get out of ETF( that's what I did)

i just renewed last month. dam so sell the phone for 300 and that should pay the eft fee.
As has been posted here and all over the web several thousand times, Sprint's 3G data speeds are terrible pretty much nationwide. They have a few markets that are ok, but many aren't

Well you could get closed to 400$ but I would try to see if sprints lets you go without fee

I would do that as well. But I have three phones on one account and that means buying all new phones and 2gnexs and an epic 4g won't pay for new phones and contracts. Unfortunately I'll have to deal with it. Until LTE hits me. At least I hope it does.

when you sell your sprint phones when they cancel your service it will more than cover your new phones. You would actually come out ahead a little.

AT&T GoPhone is one of the worst choices for prepaid smartphones.
Unlocked gsm nexus might wait until thanksgiving for the new 5 nexus devices
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
this is precisely why i'm leaving Sprint and going to T-Mobile. the 4G Wimax is fast (5000kbps) but none of the newer Sprint phones are using Wimax anymore and Sprint's 3G is crawling at <500kbps. Can't wait to activate my nexus on T-Mobile when my SIM comes in!

The only problem I had with it was on the unlimited everything plan for $50, they booted me when they found out I wasn't using a dumb phone but that was after trying to download a ROM haha. Switching to another European phone put data right back on.

I plan on buying the Gs3 on my mother's account unactivated. I would like to know if can activate it my account, I'm not due an upgrade and not face any penalities.

Yes but they will show it as a new phone and charge you $36 activation fee.

Not if it is Att you are talking about...if you buy the phone outright it will be a simple change equipment and you will only be charged the price of the phone ..it should go that way for most phone companies but if its att you won't get charged...

I thought that, but when I got my Epic the reps told me if I ever activate a phone too early that wasn't due for an upgrade my account could be cancelled or something.

I waited in line and got on June 22nd... before most everyone else. The price you pay to be one of the first to own it.
Wal-Mart and Target you have to sign the contract (or upgrade) with them to get it right? You can't use your saved upgrade?

Asking them to price match will almost always get you the price your looking for and also going in towards the end of the month!
Phone stolen today.
I've suspended the service and tried to use plan b with no success.
I have insurance with tmo.
Is there any way I can locate it+how much will it be to replace via insurance claim?
:crying:
If you have insurance it shouldn't cost more than $40 to get a replacement.

Cops won't waste the resources for a phone that is not worth it.
Report it to T-Mobile and they will put the IMEI on a black list that it can never be used again...
I got a replacement via asurion
I'm not sure whether my stolen phone was imei blacklisted but they said it's now deactivated.
Actually pretty happy because my phone had tons of lines and a few scrapes+ scratched

That's precisely what I did and now..I'm getting a WHITE SII :victory::victory::victory:
They sent me a Blaze because apparently they didn't have any black s2 left...pretty dumb of them.
I think no apps can match 'find my iPhone' if in this situation ad i also have all version of iPhone.. once i try to locate n yes i found it back....
Samsung should have one of those..
Anyway, they shouldn't replaced to you the blaze i think... :banghead:

Sorry for the noob question. There's a sIII for sale on craigslist for 130 with a bad ESN. What is that? is that bad?

That means the past owner didn't pay a bill or owes a balance so you can't activate it on Sprint until it is payed off

That's stupid! Lol u should be able to sell it. And y would someone want to buy it if u can't activate it?

Because when they purchased the phone they got it at a huge discount that Sprint subsidized counting on this person being a customer for 2 years. Now they terminated early and did not pay the ETF so the only recourse besides filing with a collection agency is to deny them the revenue (they think) of selling the phone.

Gotcha gotcha. I wish there was some way around that. 130 for the phone is a steal. And its clean

My wife actually had a phone with a bad MSN. So I took it over and developed it. Always nice to work on device with no worries. I tested it as much as I could. It still works with wifi so, able to still almost everything but actually make a call. There are apps out there to actually make a call via wifi but then that actually would defeat the purpose of a "phone". Unless, your connected to wifi all day everyday.
