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

I bough these as Christmas gifts. Can they be activated then or do they need to be opened now and activated? I really don't want to give an open phone as a gift. I will if I have to though.
You need to activate within ~30 days or the $60 service credit will be gone. I know this from waiting too long last spring, but was able to get CS to fund my account when I did finally activate.

Very good deal. For two phones only cost $198 + $5 Tello #s -$10 CB = less than $200. I see lots of people are asking where to get reliable port numbers. If you have compatible Sprint phone and SIM lying around, get a Tello referral code from e/bay, and sign up for the $5 plan from them, they will give you a phone number. Also, you will get $10 credit, which can be used to buy two more phone numbers. Account # and PIN can be easily retrieved from your account.
I just have one Sprint SIM card with me. Do I need multiple SIM cards to get multiple lines from Tello? Thanks.

For cashback/rebates, raku 10 is giving $5 per phone. You can buy 1 phone at $50+$60 or buy 2 phones at $100 + $60+ $30 for second line with multi line discount ,but both phones need to be in single order. For me, 2 phones were at $180 + $9 in tax - $10 cashback.

For referral link, you first need to get that link and give your email id to cricket and they will send you code in your email. Then once you activate the line, immediately enter the referral code which you would have got in email. I do not know how it works if you place order before getting referral email but you do need to have referral code before activating the line.

You can get referral link through ebay or reddit.

If you buy the 2 phones on one order, then you'd can't do the plan downgrade to cover the second month can you?

64GB White MX9P2LL/A is the factory unlocked model number, so that's nice - after the 6 month requirement it should work on any carrier!
Are you saying that it'll get automatically unlocked after 6 months even if it's not active under cricket network?

Any ideas why verizon port to cricket isnt working? Tried twice, both went to need more information. Physically typed my account and the current password both times.

Is cricket looking fir something else? Both orders my verizon lines got a text notifying of the port and both times canceled by cricket. When i click order status there is nothing to update. Just says they are working with my carrier which is bs.

model number means nothing, i have tested an iPhone XS Max from Spectrum Mobile before, the model number indicated it is a sim unlock model, but it is still locked to Spectrum.

There's no "activation" needed per se. You simply take the nano SIM from your existing line and slip it into the new phone and it should start working.
Last question - just cancel the plan as soon as I get the phones?

Yeah, I'd do that except for the fact that I live in Chicago and my packages would be stolen 😂

How do I trade in 4 of these devices to apple so I can buy an iphone 12? I would like all the credit to go to one account. Never done this before & dont know how this works.
Not sure Apple do it any more, but you can actually trad-in for store credit (while not sure what to buy Wink yet - then use these credits later for one buy... That's what I did with 6S.

I'm guessing the eSIM is also locked?

Can you confirm it's the A2275 version (which presumably could be activated on any carrier)?
