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 bought 2 already. total cost $196 for 2 phones. trade in value of SE at apple is $210

Finally got a port # from sd4less. I sent my area code, like someone suggested to him. Bought the 128 gig. Bought afternoon and have received shipping confirmation.
How long ago did you purchase the phone? Also did sd4less give you a T-Mobile or a boost number?

I ordered the phone about 3 hours ago and still no shipping confirmation. Sd4less gave me a boost sim account but I had requested a T-Mobile in the note section when purchasing the sim.

Im a current Cricket customer and intend to swap SIM card from current Iphone 7 to the new SE when it arrives.

1. Will Iphone SE work right out of the box when I put my sim card in?
2. Would the 6 month timer to unlock the new Iphone SE start as soon as I put my current sim card in?
I might have to uproot to EU in the summer and would like to unlock this phone and bring it with me
1. yes
2. yes

do we really need to activate and port in a number once we receive the cricket device since this is prepaid and paid full amount.
That's a great question, I'd like to know as well.

The wiki page says,

"Before purchasing your free phone, "

How can new cricket customers get this phone for free?
Isn't it $50?

Takes 45 mins to pull out an account number and pin number from 1 trial number, over the next few days maybe i can get some purchasers to leave review for me to confirm what i'm saying.

I would strongly ask you NOT to put your existing SIM in and forget about it, here is my story [I have a lot of respect for energyx esp in cellphone deals which seems to be his / her specialty ] but I'd like to offer my experience , this was 19 months ago
I had done a SIM swap, unlock policy said 12 months, I called at 13 months, they said there is no record of the iPhone being activated. I said I have been using it - and it is active right now - they had nothing to say, just apology, asked me to call apple ... whaaat ? yeah.
but this was almost 2 years ago, here is me hoping cricket is better.

For those wanting to do more than one order (and thus use a different address), I was successful in using Privacy (virtual card), so I did not have to keep changing the address attached to my card (or using a family member or friend's CC). Privacy lets you use their cards with any address (the account is attached to your checking account). If anyone needs any help with it, feel free to message me.
Thank you for the Privacy recommendation. Looks like a cool idea that I will be able to use in other ways. But for today it got me a second order.
