Quote from paperwastage

it's sold by virgin mobile, a CDMA carrier

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sams...Mobile_USA

the phone is CDMA version, SPH-D710

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_g...h-3956.php

NOT A GSM device... there are multiple versions of Samsung S2 (i dislike such model numbers as well [gsmarena.com])

.....

Same phone as Sprint Epic 4G Touch (WiMax 4G). Check for WiMax protection sites [s4gru.com] with Sensorly (Android/iPhone App)

Great phone, great price. The amount of money you can save with a carrier like VM is staggering. I'm still on the $25 a month plan, sooo looks like I'm staying with my LG Optimus Elite. Good thing I like it!

really doesn't have GSM/UMTS 3G support ? I know Virgin Mobile uses Sprint network and uses CDMA. BUT I read the specs. on PCmag
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2...?tab=Specs and Future Shop in Canadai
http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/pr...75605.aspx

and GSMarena
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_g...m-4059.php

It seems it has GSM in the phone...

That's why I wonder if it can be unlock and use oversea when I travel ?

Right when I submitted my order I got:

Crap. I wonder if the order was submitted **scared**

How does VM compare with Tmobile prepaid? I'm quickly realizing I need tons of minutes, but 2g data is acceptable per month. $50 for the Tmobile per month compared to $55 with VM. The $300 Nexus phone is tempting but also kind of expensive for my limited data needs. Ugh.

An s2 front page? Do I need to clear my cache from 2011?

Is this phone worth getting off the $25 plan?

Quote from iwheela

Switching from Virgin Mobile to T-Mobile was one of my better decisions. If data speeds mean little to nothing to you, then it could be worth the switch but Virgin Mobile's data speeds were always painfully slow, even in good signal areas.

I know it's not quite the same thing, but I just got a used Samsung Epic 4G Touch (Sprint's version of the GS2) in excellent condition on eBay for $170 and activated it on Ting without too much trouble. If you're willing/able to keep your usage down, Ting can be even cheaper than Virgin Mobile for the same network, especially with multiple lines.

for those that have this phone (VIRIGN MOBILE version)

can you tell me if you have any trouble with GPS locking on to a signal?

the sprint version have a know issue with gps taking too long to lock, not accurate or not locking at all.

I want to use GPS navigation apps (igo, tomtom) with this but want to make s ure theres no GPS issue with this model.
