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

Can I port in tracfone number?
Yes, but make certain your TF is not on the At&t network and if so, Cricket will not allow. Must be on T-Mo or Verizon. Also call them to confirm your account number and pin since getting it wrong will cancel your order and that takes 2-3 days for you to get that info. Also your TF account must be active.

For those who placed an order with an number from an ebay seller, you can check cricketwireless.com/portstatus to see if there's an issue with the number. My first order showed "Transfer Delayed". Turns out the number was not active on Boost. I contacted the ebay seller and he gave me a new number. Placed a new order and checked port status. Now it says "All Set". Hopefully it will ship.
Mine says all set but I have not received any email after the initial order confirmation email

I got this when I entered the number I got from the ebay seller.. "Oops! We're having trouble processing your request right now. Sorry for the inconvenience. Please try again later"...

Does it mean I got scammed? would anyone please let me know if there is a reputable seller? thanks!

I got up to 2 orders @ 2 devices per order in.

I'm feeling antsy at trying out 2 more - if it doesn't go through it's a waste of $15 worth of portable numbers per order.
I'm sure you could order a ton more with new delivery addresses

Can we request the phone to be unlocked on the last day of the 6th month or should we also pay for the 7th month of service?
Can we also prepay for the service? I have $25 cashback offer on 2 of my credit cards and would like to know if it's possible to redeem both by prepaying.

I put 0000 and it worked! That was my question too, but I tried a luck and it worked
I ordered boost mobile and it says my order is delayed due to delayed transfer. Did you get this problem?

Yes, you can. Make sure you call or chat with TracFone (https://support.tracfone.com/?showBot=true) to get the proper account no and PIN.
Thanks a ton. I can confirm that tracfone port out works and I also checked cricketwireless.com/portstatus, it says You are all set. Thanks again

Were you able to make two separate orders to the same address? I got shipping confirmation this morning for 1 device I ordered yesterday, but I would like to order 1 more for my parent to the same address. Would this be a problem?

I thought so too, but I've read many comments here stating they received shipping confirmation a few hours after placing their orders on Saturday. I ordered early Saturday afternoon if that helps anyone...
Just a while back I got the shipping confirmation email. Check your email.

True. Once a Sprint sim is activated in a phone, it can only work that phone.... this never changes for that sim. It is useless for any other phone.
true, but they CAN transfer it to another phone with a different IMEI, you just have to call them, and it is a pain
SPRINT account activation and service SIM is tightly linked with the phone IMEI / ESN / MEID
