First off, not sure if this is in the right section but if its not please mods feel free to move. Also if this in anyway violates forum rules please remove.
With that said, as the title implies I need help from someone that fits the description of the title. Why? Long story, but I'll try summarizing it.
I bought a use nexus, everything works and its in perfect condition. Except that its blocked from T-Mobile. I hadn't notice this as I just recently tried activating it with them. before that I was with AT&T and everything worked perfectly. So what do I need? I would like to find someone who is willing to swap phones (same model). That only needs it for AT&T (or straight talk, etc). Like stated, phone is in perfect condition except a small scratch near the sim slot, Unlock boot loader, running Carbon ( I could put it back to stock). So please if you're willing to help me out PM me and we could work something out. Thanks.

If its blocked from T-Mobile it was stolen and the IMEI was blacklisted. Irreversible, unless you want to illegally change the IMEI

Nice information. So is there anyway to check a used phone if it is in any blacklist?
What do mean "it's blocked by Tmobile?"
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
As in bad IMEI number, up till yesterday I had no idea T-Mobile blocked phones. My guess is that the guy who sold it to me was doing fraud, report it lost so he could get another one. Reason being is that a few days later he hit me up asking me if I wanted another one of course I had no need for it so I just disregard his message...
Anyhow, if anyone is willing to do an swap. Let me know and we could work something out.
It works perfectly for at&t or any other carrier except T-Mobile :/

My guess is no, unless you call T-Mobile and ask em about the IMEI number. So if you're planning on purchasing a use T-Mobile phone call first!

Stolen/fraud and ATT will likely block the phone soon since they started sharing their blacklist database last year.
I feel for you. I also appreciate the full disclosure. But, I think that you're most likely stuck with it. After all this is a forum full of nexus owners so you'd be hard pressed to get a someone to even swap their nexus that's on the network of their choosing for one with a questionable esn. Perhaps if you sweetened the pot(throw in some $) you'd have better luck.
With that out the way... why didn't you demand a refund from the seller? Or at least swapped for the phone he text to try to sell you? Did you even tell the seller about the fact you couldn't activate the phone?

Talk about debbie downer, it would be great if it would work, i am coming from the gnex, and use google wallet quite often. CM10.1 would be great too but that is for a different section
The Sprint version of the G2 has been uploaded so hopefully someone can obtain Google Wallet access for other G2 variants.

I used tap to pay on my Att s4 last week. There's an up to date zip you just load from recovery and it works fine.
It's not a build.prop change. It's taking binaries on the sprint version and porting it over.
Any updates to this?, would love some tap and pay action on this G2

Any luck with this @joemagistro? Sprint system dump has been out there for weeks. Released on Sprint last Fri...
I have been searching high and low for a rom that will allow wallet and Isis. Malladus allows Isis but not wallet tap and pay. AOKP and PA allow wallet tap and pay but Isis will not install. Since KK has the ability to choose your tap and pay solution there has to be a way to get them both functioning. Any ideas?

I am surprised that no one even nibbles at this with the free money and perks offered by Isis.

My Tmo G2 came with the ISIS app installed on it only thing I had to do was buy an Isis Sim card in order to use it. Have done so yet though.

Thanks, but by ROM I meant custom ROM. Thought that was obvious enough that it didn't need to be stated. Isis works for everyone on stock.

Dredging up an older post of my own, but both work on Malladus 2.0.
I would expect that they will both work on any official 4.4 ROM.

Great question. I'm curious of the same thing. I've used Google voice for voicemail previously while running AOSP Roms, but I find it unreliable. The messages never played through all the way. I was actually hoping that the sprint voicemail app would work or be able to be ported.
I use Google voice. It fully integrates with Sprint during set up and other than the initial bug mentioned before, it has worked perfectly for me.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk
I've been pleasantly surprised with this phone on Sprint. I was ready to switch carriers because my HTC One could rarely get a signal and forget about LTE. However, this phone has superb signal and has been great on the network.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk
We really need that visual voicemail app. We are paying for service. They need to make it available to everyone either thru Google play store or thru their website. Every time you go to Sprint's forums on their website and ask about VV they recommend using 3rd party app. Very disappointed at Sprint and their lack of effort and care to provide the app for nexus devices. Every other carrier like T-Mobile, at&t and Verizon have their VV app in the Google play store. I tried using the VV , it provisions successfully but voicemail messages do not show up.
Personally, I like the Sprint Zone app but I can't find an updated apk that works correctly. I tweeted @ sprint care about it and, lol, they said it should have been pre-installed. I replied "No. It's a nexus, NOTHING is pre-installed." They didn't tweet back after that.

And here I was thinking how awesome it is that this device came from Sprint with NO carrier branding or bloat (which includes Sprint Zone).
But Sprint Zone does have some useful things with in it...I just never used it personally so I'm grateful it didn't come preinstalled and, more importantly, can't be uninstalled.

You guys should try Youmail Visual Voicemail it's pretty neat.
in that it will also work in places where Apple and Google Pay do not?
No. Google pay is what you will have to use. Samsung pay is in another league... I doubt anyone else will be able to come close to it anytime soon.
