Wechat and Csipsimple. Further more, if I use VPN on top of data, those Apps works fine again. Only the native data cause troubles. Seems no one has complained about this, maybe my account issue?
If they work fine with VPN, I think it's the Sprint proxy Big Grin

Let me sleep on it and decide later if I am willing to post detailed instructions on how to do it. I am a bit reluctant at this point because once it gets a lot of attention, it will get killed. A few advanced users have managed to do it by reading between the lines.
If you don't mind PMing me the info, I'd greatly appreciate it.Smilie

Ignorance is no excuse. But they need explanation for plan change on nov 19 if upgrade was done on dec 4th
Were they adding line or something else on nov 19. The plan change to a non free plan would have allowed a december 4th upgrade with no warnings.
Agree. But Sprint's ignorance in their marketing systems shouldn't be ignored either. I have gotten emails from Sprint encouraging me to upgrade on a free plan that's been in effect for only 45 days or so. I haven't done it, but I think an argument can be made that Sprint is also culpable if they don't disclose in that email or during the upgrade process online that you'll lost your free plan. Otherwise, it's bait and switch marketing tactics.

You can use an old sim card, yes, but only if it is the correct sim card for the model of phone you are activating. There are about 30 Sprint sim cards and you have to have the right one.

See https://help.ting.com/hc/en-us/ar...r-SIM-Card for a list.

If you use you own sim card, you can not sign up online and must instead call the 8777 number.

Yes it will.
If you need a different sim card, you can get ones for iPhones free from most Apple stores (just drop by as the phone team will tell you otherwise).

For non-iPhones, you can order sim cards for $2.99 from Twigby https://www.twigby.com/shop/twigb...s/simcards

Purchase iphone 6 unlocked in canada Part No MG3H2CL/A and later in the year i moved to USA. When my iphone developed problems Apple store replaced with new/refurbished phone with part number NG4W2LL/A. Last week when i tried to Port my number to Sprint Mobile, Sprint representative stated that model NG4W2LL/A doesnt support CDMA. I did try the IMEI number of MG3H2CL/A (from Original Box) and Sprint says it does support CDMA.

1) Are both parts identical and support CDMA ??
2) Did i get replaced with Only GSM model.


Apple support/Apple Store really dont care now ,because my iphone is no longer in warranty
