Do you keep your phone number if you unlock a sprint phone at metro pcs?
Q. I wanted to get a samsung instinct for metro pcs, and i was wondering if you can keep your phone number? Also does it take a long time for them to do all of this?
Asked by KOBE24 - Wed Jan 7 23:36:04 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. You can kep your phone number. Go into the store and tell them you want to switch from Sprint to Metro and ask them to flash your phone to the Metro PCS network. The flashing takes anywhere from 10 mins to 45 mins depending on the amount of people in the store. Make sure you go in the morning though because the flashing techs leave somewhere around 430p. Switching from Sprint to Metro also takes 10 mins.

A. Metro PCS can only use CDMA phones (phones that don't require a SIM card or chip to work like GSM phones). GSM phones include T-mobile, Cingular/ AT&T, and some nextels. However this leaves Verizon, Sprint, Boost mobile Cricket, Virgin mobile, and other phones wide open for selection. The best way to know is if you bring it into a store. Also be aware that although it is a great value, the phone you will be bringing in is USED, so there is no warranty if something goes wrong. Also there are limitations. No picture messaging, Internet, or downloadable content from Metro's service.
