I'm wanting to join my fiance's plan on sprint. I have a verison galaxy s3 currently. Am I able to just flash a sprint rom and have them activate it on the sprint network, or will I need to get a new phone when the time comes? I really don't want to have to get a new one with that expense if I don't have to.

This thread will likely be moved over to the Q&A section.
As far as I'm aware, it will not work like that. You most likely will have to get a new phone.

Have to get a new phone. Verizon uses sim cards for their LTE phones while sprint doesn't.

Incorrect. Sprint uses a SIM for their LTE as well (all the carriers do). It's just embedded and not visible. Doesn't really matter to O.P, as he/she would need to get a Sprint phone anyway.

Come on that's splitting hairs..a SIM card is recognized as removable to allow portability of a device from one account to another (or even carrier to another) just by swapping the SIM card. Let's not confuse the guy. Sprint SGS3 does not have a SIM card, it has an imbedded chip. Otherwise it would be no issue but having the right sized screwdriver to remove and swap a Sprint 'SIM card' with a Verizon one. The hardware is different, thus you cannot do this.

Technically it's not the same, they have the same function but an embedded sim looks more like a chip soldered to the board and not an SD cardish shaped card. They serve the same function but do it slightly different. Kind of like a car and a truck, they both have 4 wheels and serve the same purpose (transportation) but they technically aren't the same thing. The main difference is removable sims are easily reprogrammed, while an embedded sim isn't(has to be detached from the board and put in a special reader that unlocks the programming function). I guess embedded sims would be considered more secure than a removable from several standpoints. User standpoint its not easily swapped out with another in the event of theft, and the data stored on it isn't as easily accessible to a thief. From the carrier standpoint its not as easy to reprogram and impossible to swap so the device can be unlocked to work on another carrier.

Sorry, you're wrong.
Whether hairs are being split or not, this statement "Verizon uses sim cards for their LTE phones while sprint doesn't." is factually wrong. Sprint does use a SIM for their LTE.
Like someone else pointed out, would you say that one phone with a non-removable battery DOES NOT TECHNICALLY use a battery versus a phone with a removable battery, just because etc etc...?
...and what would swapping a Sprint SIM with Verizon achieve? Sprint's LTE is on 1900mhz and Verizon is on 700mhz? You do realize that...

Is there any reason to put the new SIM card that came with my phone in? I put in the same one that I've been using for years (Dash->G1->G2->SGS2) and it works fine. 4G shows at the top of the screen. I haven't tried a speed test yet, but I'd bet I get 4G speeds the same way I did on my G2.
So, what good reason is there?
Right now, there is no reason. When the wifi calling becomes available it will require the new Sim.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
do you have some sort of sentimental connection to that sim? why not just use the new one to make sure yoour up to date?
Where did you guys find the new sim card? Is it in the plastic wrapper with the manual/user guide? I don't see it in the box and I haven't opened up the plastic wrapping the manual/user guide is wrapped in. Fyi I did buy my phone from a T-Mobile.

I replaced my five yr old sim card with it because my old one seemingly caused some bad 3g data issues. I found this out by swapping sim cards with a friend who just signed with T-Mobile and an SGS2. I replaced my old one with the one that came with the SGS2 and now I'm not only seeing improved 3g speeds but also better call reception.

Quick question, my sim is about 3 months old. Will it work with wifi calling when it is released or is the SIM in the box even more "updated" than a 3 month old sim?

They aren't. They are tied to IMEI's. Two things you really need it for; 1. If you want to use WiFi calling after the maintenance update in a couple weeks, you will absolutely have to have this SIM card. No questions. It will not work. 2. After time, the older SIM cards will fail. This could lead to data access, call drop, sms sending/receiving and signal issues. If you have one now to activate, saves you a call and a trip to the local store for a replacement.

Actually the new Sim is a completely new revision designed for the high speed 4g network. It also has the gold contacts in a different design which is part of it look at old and new Sims if you don't believe me. I forgot the name of the new Sim but its what was taught and explained for tmobile techs (tier 2 and up support). Also most stores do not have this Sim revision in yet so use the one supplied in your box. 90% of most tmobile employees have no idea about the new Sim and only guess when asked.

I found this. it may enable more than just roaming on GSM. I haven't read the entire thread or tried it myself well cause I has T-Mobile.
But it appears there may be some way to get it to work.

Sim card holder. I found an ad on eBay which a seller has put in a new Sim card holder for a Sprint Note2. I ask if he test the phone if it can made call using ATT or T Mobile; he said he does not know
Boy o boy sounds like a pretty good gimmick selling something that he doesn't know that works and somebody willing to buy it even better... if you do some reading and some googling you can find info about this....
Rockin it from my macknote2
The hardware IS in our phones. You do have to buy that adapter and replace some of the innards of the device but from what I've seen once you do it the phone is ready to accept the sim. You just have to replace certain hardware. Sprint decided to go with an integrated sim.
Edit: Maybe not so easy? See this thread

It's called unlocking and basically unlocks your phone so it can use any carrier. Now it's illegal in the US but call up your provider ask and for the unlock code anyway. Say you have to go there in a couple of day and you need to use the phone. Normally they'll give it to you via email and the instructions are included in the email. All you would have to do after you unlock the phone is replace the sim card and you'll all good to go. Now don't go online and buy the unlock codes from websites because most of them are scams and even though some might work, its not worth giving them your credit card number and then be in deep yogurt.

If kddi won't add the esn, you could get a cheap phone thru them and flash your note with cdma ws or find another mvno that will add it. Now that sprint and softbank are looking at a partnership I think softbanks carrier's will accept sprint phones for Americans that come over without too much hassle. Japan has a large cdma network (largest outside of US) and use the same frequencys and sprint as vzw so 3g should be no problem and neither should finding someone to add your esn over there. They're pretty good about letting Americans use their own devices when they come over.

I am currently on Verizon, with a Galaxy Nexus. I bought a Droid DNA off of eBay (really good deal), and want to know if I can just pop in my sim card, and go. I know the sizes are different, so I can use a sim cutter, and go to town on it. When I was checking the ESN with the Verizon rep, they said I would need to call to activate the phone. I've read on the interweb you can swap sims on 4G phones with no issue. So, much like everything on the interweb, there is conflicting information. What's the good word?
Actually both the DNA and gnex require micro sims, so it should fit right away. and yes, you can just pop in the sim and wait for it to recognize, but do it on the sense ROM before gaining s-off and flashing roms because I remember reading that cm doesn't have a certain file or something that prevents you from activating it when you run a custom ROM. Anyways, to answer your question yes
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Verizon would need to activate because they use cdma and only use approved devices on their network.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Well Verizon exclusive devices like the droid DNA are pre-approved, and as long as it was sold by Verizon period, and is a 4g device, then you can swap sims all you want.

Yes; the Verizon Wireless 4G SIM card contains all of your subscriber information, so the SIM card is portable and can be used in any Verizon Wireless-certified 4G device. All usage will be billed to the account associated with the 4G SIM card.

Got my phone today. Popped in the Verizon 4G sim from my Nexus, and my DNA read the service with no issues. I did not have to call Verizon to swap the phone.
