ROAM in Cabo, Mexico - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Hello all, pls allow me to ask this, even if its a repeat - I can't find the answer I am looking for, and I searched this forum.
I am on Sacs v6. I am going to Cabo on Friday. What will roam control do for me, how can I use my phone down there without incurring a $200 bill for 4 days?
i greatly appreciate anyone's input here
thanks!

Wrong place to put a question btw but have you tried international gsm unlock and use your phone with a prepaid company there?

I'm in Mexico City a lot and, quite frankly, I just turn off my data, and only make a call if it's very important. Texting out is .50, and texts to you are .15 if I remember correctly.
I just use wifi at the hotels.

Or you could unlock and buy s telmex sim card.

Once i accomplished that I was able to use T-Mobiles $30 plan that consist of unlimited Web (First 5gigs @ 4g speed), unlimited texting, and 100mnts of talk. it had to do with rooting my SGT7 and then downloading Root Explorer and deleting certain files, im hoping to get some answers cause i honestly dont want to pay more money and recive ALOT less options in my plan. So can anyone one PLEASE be kind enuff to assist me with this delema Im having. IM POSITIVE THERES PLENTY OF BRIGHT BULBS IN THIS HUGE FACTORY WE CALL OUR HOME (XDA).... THANKS IN ADVANCE.

With a locked bootloader there is no way to tr it out. We know that roms will need to have the LCD and Camera driver... Now sure how it will work at this point. If they can crack the bootloader we will know...

Buying an s4

Hey folks, I have a cousin that wants an s4. I've found one to buy here in the States from a good friend, but need some help. My cousin lives in Panama and the phone will be used over there. It will need to be unlocked, correct? If you guys have experience unlocking your at&t s4 please do share it. Also, I think the phone is on contract. Will I be able to use it out of the US or will it have a bad ESN? Thanks. Any advice on buying a phone is appreciated.

The best thing you can do is use the search function to look through the "general" and "Q&A" sections to find threads that have already been created about the subject. Make sure you take the time to read all of the threads have you find because they contain a lot of information and warnings. I f you do this, you will have all the information you need and then some. Good luck.

Custom roaming profiles

I've read a little about people downloading custom roaming profiles. Is this something still done today? I'm on an old plan with sprint and I roam nearly every other day. The phone used to data roam and now it doesn't, and Sprint is little to no help. Their technical customer service is a whole other thread.
