R-SIM is a SIM card add-on that looks like a really thin SIM card that mounts on top of your nano sim (or below depending on the model) that allows you to bypass the sim lock by hard coding a new ICCID that is unlocked.

You can buy the R-SIMs off ebay/amazon and they are usually $10 give or take.

It works reasonably well and the wiki talks about how to operate it, the only challenge is sometimes iOS updates break it and sometimes you need a new ICCID but for the most part it's great and allows you to use a SIM locked phone with any provider. and in this case you dont have to wait 180 days with Cricket to get an unlock code.

Keep in mind it is unlike the factory unlocking process which is permanent. Here you are dependent always on the R-SIM.

back in the day it also went by the name Gevey SIM.

As long as you have an old Sprint SIM card laying around (they're reusable)... and an IMEI from a phone that's compatible with Sprint's network, you can sign up for the $5 service (data only) or if you want to play it safe... $6 service (500mb data, 100 min). Pay for service, enter in IMEI and SIM card info, activate. You'll have instant access to a new phone number, pin to access port out info.

I would've jumped on any one of those deals if the screen wasn't a tad too small for today's phones.
You think it's small, I am still using 1st generation iPhone SE.

It depends on the days of the 6 months you are talking about. It must be for 180 days.

Yes have to be active for 6 months. I have done twice.
Thanks for the replies. So, if you port in a number you want to keep, it sounds like you would need to pay for 7 months so that they would unlock your phone after 6 months / 180 days and then still be able to port out your number. You couldn't port out during the 6th month because then you wouldn't have active service for the full 6 months / 180 days even though you prepaid for it. Is this correct?

I always hate to read people asking for their hand to be held on a deal but I'm just not quite getting it if I can leverage this one for my situation.

Want to get mother-in-law a new iPhone SE for Christmas. She is on cricket and wants to stay on cricket. I don't want her or I to have to visit a cricket store or contact them to update her account. Just want to swap her SIM into the new phone(and transfer the data/etc, obv). I don't imagine it's as simple as buying a non ATT # from ebay and then signing up as a new cricket customer? Would I be on the hook for 6 months of service? I assume the answer is yes.

iPhones are used to be small (4"). Then, people are getting used to the big (6.5") screen. After that, they are not comfortable with the small (4.7") screen anymore. i

Wish Mint Mobile offered deals like this.
Agreed, but Mint is offering rock-bottom prices, whereas Cricket is subsidizing these sorts of deals with service plans that cost twice as much.

It's actually around 175 days it allows it. I've done that on a 7 and 8 in the last year.

Google tells you 6 months is 182.5 days, so you may be able to get it unlocked before the 7th month payment. but if you have Feb as part of your 6-month, you may have to pay the 7th month

It's actually 175 days, which is less than 6 months, even if Feb is involved. I've unlocked two phones recently around the 175 day time frame.

What special instructions did you give. Listing says ask for carrier before purchasing. Did you state you wanted to port to cricket? Thanks.
