Can I sell my contract cellphone without cancelling the contract?

I heard that the Nexus S 4g is coming to Sprint and I'm interested in trading my Samsunv Epic for it. Can I sell my Samsung Epic and use the money to buy the Nexus S 4G without cancelling the contract. Thanks for your help.

Not unless you have a phone to use before you sell the Epic.

There are multiple lines on my account. Does that count?

No. There needs to be a phone on every line.
Texted while driving

Yes I have that

You're not understanding, you can't take a phone (in this case the Epic) off your line unless you have a phone to replace it at that very moment.
Texted while driving

what he's saying is:
If you sell your Epic, the phone will have to be deactivated from your account first. The only way to do that if you are on a contract is to replace the Epic with another phone so that line doesn't incur early termination fees.
Your options are
1: buy the Nexus first, activate it to your Epic line and then sell your Epic
2: if you have an old sprint phone lying around that is no longer in use then activate that on your Epic line, sell your Epic and then buy the nexus and replace your old throw away phone.

Wait I can have two phones on one line?

What I did when I sold traded my touch pro for the seller's touch pro 2 on craigslist was completed the phone transaction then and there on the spot. I told the sprint agent that me and my friend wanted to exchange phones and they help us complete the transaction with any early termination fees.

Wow now I realise how fortunate I am that I use gsm. Sim cards for the win.

Yes its possible i did it when I traded my evo for the epic. Both partys went to a sprint store and the rep there did the swap.

Only problem is used Epic's aren't selling for crap these days, you will have a large margin to cover when you buy the Nexus at full (no contract) price.
But heck, if you find someone willing to pay well for an Epic see if he wants two of them I'd like to move to the nexus as well.
Edit: it looks like the nexus S will only be $400 off contract...so we might be able to get close to that. Hmmm...decisions decisions.

Question about the update

I was reading the update post by sprint and was woundering what airrade is? The only mention I have seen of it was in the post with the person complaining about data speed.

Its this mini cell phone tower that you pay monthly for so it can leech off your wifi to give you better cell service.

Not necessarily pay monthly for. I am only paying like $2 a month difference in taxes because ut has to add a line on your account.

It was your downpayment back in the form of a rebate on Value plans.
You still pay the installments.

carriers actually compete for lower prices in the uk, not see who can come up with the ****tiest plans

Just left sprint for at&t. You would have to give me a free gs3 to sign another 2 years with them and even then I probably wouldn't do it. Worst. Data network. Ever.

But best data plans. Ever. lol My wife kept going over on her ****ty AT&T plan, so it was actually cheaper for her to cancel and join my Sprint plan. And data speeds are A-ok over here at the wonderful world of Wimax ;D tho can't wait for LTE

Ya unfortunately I didn't get wimax in my city. 3G I was getting .2-.6 mbs. For me unlimited data is worthless at those speeds. I'm on Wi-Fi 90% of the time, but when I'm not somewhere with Wi-Fi I get 10mbs.

I want a gs III

The only problem is my upgrades not till june, but my evos pretty much done and I dont wanna pay 100$ for new evo or 600$ for a gs III ANY ideas?
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

There will be something new and great by June, I'm sure. Have you checked around places like Craigslist to see what kind of deals are out there? What's wrong with your EVO?
I'm due for an upgrade next month. I can't decide between the EVO LTE or SGS3. There is a rumor floating around about a Galaxy Nexus 2 that would have a 1.5Ghz processor, 8MP camera and 32GB of internal storage. I know the LG Nexus device is coming, but I've never been a huge fan of LG, and I really like the Galaxy Nexus. Hardware wise, the supposed Nexus 2 would be on par with the SGS3, at least at a glance.
Edit: Just read a recent article on the Galaxy Nexus 2. Doesn't look all that promising, really. Looks like the SGS3 with a microSD slot.

My evo is cracking which is messing up touch input, and power button and distorting sound through aux, and no I havent checked craigs list yet, but on amazon its 530 and I really just want the gsIII Because it has a bunch of bad ass features

Probably the upgrade price. You can buy out your contract. Just shoot Sprint an email or give them a call to find out what the buy-out is.
