If you want I believe you can go to your sprint account online and blacklist the number.

Is that black listing free?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Its free you can do online in your account setting permissions or you can call sprint to block it

Or install Mr. Number Call Block on your phone. I use it to send incoming 800/888/866/865 numbers and their built-in "suspected spam" list straight to voicemail. You can, of course, add your own numbers to block or exclude, and you can choose whether to send blocked calls straight to voicemail or simply block.

You can also add the number as a contact and then force the calls to go straight to VM. Click on the contact>edit>Send calls directly to voicemail.

AT&T Voicemail - I'm stuck!

So I took my galaxy note in today to get a new 4g card. Ok..good. However, they put my note serial number in the system and couldnt add LTE. What do I now that they have my serial and know I'm using international.
All I want is AT&T visual voicemail. Any advice appreciated.

There should be a USSD code (using the dialer pad) to bring up your IMEI...

CDMA phones dont have USSD codes. The ESN will be in the back of the phone or under status under settings.
Just go to a Verizon store they will help ya out

That is what I will probably do. Thanks

I bought new LG k4 2017 used unlocked and new SIM card SIM card is active but won't read in phone. Provider says need new SIM card again

Sprint Galaxy s4 on Tmobile.

I never had a gsm phone so I dont know alot about world phones. On sprints community foruma there is much debate if the gs4 is a world phone. I see a sim slot my guess that it is. Anyway if I were to switch to tmobile, can this phone be used or is it completely impossible? Other countries use gsm networks only so being a world phone I would assume that it can be used with US gsm networks. Thanks.

It is a world phone but it is locked to Sprint only you can call sprint and have it unlocked for international and sprint simcards only no domestic Sims like from t-mobile and AT&T.

Okay did some research and youre correct. Invalid sim pops up when a local sim is inserted. Lets say I flash the google edition rom stock rooted. Now I know it will mess up all radio with cdma but will this bypass or does sprint have a hardware lock on the device?

Yes, it will work on tmobile for text and call when you unlocked it. For data, you need to change the apn setting to epc.tmobile.com. I am sure that you will get EDGE but not sure about 3g/4g or LTE.

That is not correct. It will work if you unlocked it. You will only get EDGE data for the time being in the US.

thanks for all but can someone put what will be the procedure in how its done and the call how it will work just fine or what? please i need to know to do it im a newbee .thanks to everyone

You can't do it, it is impossible. Sprint has US carriers blocked and there is no method to unlock to use a Sprint phone on Tmobile. So here is the steps to follow: List your Sprint phone on Ebay or Craigslist, Sell it, go buy a Tmobile S4, enjoy.

Im having difficulties rooting the S4. When I check it says its not rooted properly. Im still on MF9 and have no clue how to get it to MDC/MDL baseband. Any help? And how would you change the apn settings?

sigh...
There seems to be a very dismissive attitude in this thread.
I have a Sprint HTC One and I can easily throw a T-Mobile SIM in there and get full service (sans LTE) with T-Mobile. The HSPA+ is faster than the Sprint 3G.
So while I do not have personal experience with the S4 in this fashion, I do not see why it would not be possible to get it unlocked and used on T-Mobile. (Unless Samsung/Sprint are blocking it for whatever reason)

Started receiving "Configuration Notification" messages

Any idea what this is? Started yesterday all of a sudden, I receive a text and this Notification alert.

Unlocked, G975F with TMO and Israeli sim (the 2nd sim is off for the most part). But I had the phone for almost a month and I just started getting those.

It's a problem with T-mobile's network. Try removing the Israeli SIM. Let us know if this resolved the issue.
