I have a couple unlocked rooted phones that I have tried to put prepaid SIM cards in. A Net10 SIM and a tracphone SIM into and neither work for some reason. I have an HTC Magic (T-Mobile MyTouch 3G) and a LG P999 (T-Mobile G2X) both with CyanogenMod 7. Both SIM unlocked by requesting unlock codes from T-Mobile. Both phones boot with both SIM cards, but have no service. If you put the sim into the corresponding tracphone or net10 phone they came with though, they have service. Any advise would be greatly appreciated. I have a few friends with prepaid phones and have extra unlocked rooted phones I can give them if I can get them to work with the prepaid SIM's. Thanks. Dave
Tracfone is weird. I have never heard of anyone using a tracfone sim in another phone. I've tried.

Anyone have any experience with net10? I would really appreciate any intel that would help me get either the tracphone or net10 sim working my magic. Thanks Dave

No. It's like trying to install Windows 3.1 on a new Mac (not a VM). The two technologies are incompatible. However you could get a T-Mobile/AT&T SIM card and put it on their service. T-Mobile has some pretty good deals like the 5GB/100 min/unlimited SMS 4G service (4G as in unthrottled pure LTE bliss) for $30 at Wal-mart or t-mobile.com under the prepaid section (harder to find).
ok so i have a verizon sim card which is on the pageplus network. and i wanna know if its possible to use that same sim card with my verizon gs4 that i just bought!. .. here is a little more in detail... i purchased a verizon droid rzr last year (used).. it came with a sim card right... so it means i have a verizon sim but on pageplus network.. so when i put my sim card on the gs4 it does not take it!!.. any help on how to make it work?..
Maybe that droid rzr was unlocked for other networks.

Ok so I just recently moved from the states to Canada. I was on AT&T network. It would cost me a arm and a leg to use the phone up here so I went and got a pre-paid SIM from Fido (GSM Canadian provider) loaded for a prepaid plan. my phone is outside its contract date so I submitted my AT&T unlock request got it back inserted the new SIM, then tried unlocking it. says it was unsuccessful. called AT&T and Fido multiple times trying to figure it out.after reaching advanced tech support on AT&T side the only thing they could think was it was I have ROMED and rooted my phone. I have cm11 straight from there site on my phone. could this cause an issue? I can post screenshots if needed I really hope someone can help me really need a working device.

What do you mean verizon unlocked? Is it a verizon phone your trying to use on other carriers or a other carrier phone your trying to use on verizon?
Hi guys, I just bought used sprint 306sh and trying to use it with Ringplus, but the phone came without sim card. As I know Sprint has hundreds different sim cards for different phones, just try to buy the correct one and avoid losing money, can anybody tell me that which model of sim card is using on your 306sh?
Thanks a lot.
been on Sprint and Tello with this sim
Hey, i've had the Aquos on Sprint and now Tello with
the same sim card, a GLW406R, but it seems the price
any MVNO offers on its sims to work with their service
may be lower than you can buy it for ....?
I went thru activation, this sim worked on both, no problems.

Have official sprint sim
Uses a "nano" sized sim if thats what you mean. I still have the actual card so if you need a serial number or something let me know.
