searched the thread and did not find the answer.

question: If more lines need to be added to the existing plan with this promotion, does phone number transfer is required, or fresh new lines can be added?

Thanks!

They can tell by the imei.
It may work if whitelisted but only has band 25 lte.
What does sprint checker say? If ineligible try the ting byod checker. It maybe able to push imei to sprint whitelist. When trying ting checker make sure "find my iphone" is off.

Edit I don't think the att iPhone 5c has cdma radios so it won't work on sprint. Maybe someone else could confirm?

Has anyone had any success/trouble with the Motorola G5 Plus and Google Voice Sprint Integration on an existing GV account/tel. number?
Or do you get the message:
"Unfortunately, Google Voice cannot be enabled on this Sprint phone. Please contact Sprint for more details as to why this cannot be enabled."
Sprint tech seems to think that there is an issue with the G5+.

Also does GV forward calls to your G5+ and if it does, does it ring immediately or does it ring only once on the last ring before going to voicemail and you can not answer the call?
Or it does not ring at all sometimes?

Also, do you get very low data speeds, +/-1Mbps Down, +/-<500Kbps Up?
It's always on band 41 at 1-2 bars in the LTE Discovery app.

Yes, but not for initial purchase. Buy G6 on a different plan ( non BYOD), with a new number.
Port out that new number. G6 will then be swappable into your existing BYOD line. Works great. I just did it. Love this phone

Quote from canex :
I suggest you seriously reconsider your decision. IMHO, VZW Iphone 5 is the worst phone you could use in Sprint network. It has only Band #25, lacks #26 (LTE and 3G voice) and #41 (LTE-advanced band). Considering Sprint shity network, sooner or later, you will have coverage and download speed problem.

Moto G5 plus supports all three bands. If you want to stick with Iphone, you need Iphone 6 and higher models with band #41 support.
My friend does not have problem with 5s. Even has lte
