SOURCE: Using a Mobile broadband service for online use.

Im very possitive you cant do that the ones you can do it with normal wireless broadband boxes (wi fi) you can use this wireless by going to your network settings and put wireless (also wired you choice) and then it will tell you to fill some things out with the internet cable with a wireless broadband you can wire it but the connection is better but that depends on how or were u use it wireless is still very very good for more questions ([email protected]) also myspace.

SOURCE: Verizon?

Hello,

The carriers who use non sim phones for their network are most likely to use a CDMA 450Mhz Network. Most phones with a sim slot will work on GSM 900-1800-1900 Mhz bands, with their subdivisions (like 850-950 domain, 1800-1850). A phone with a sim card uses a RF module tuned on a specific range of frequencies. The major ones are GSM, CDMA and UMTS (HSDPA included). There are phones with support for GSM + UMTS - most 3g phones available on marked. In your case, a GSM HTC touch Dual will work on gsm networks. For verizon or other cdma networks, HTC produces a CDMA version of the Touch Dual. If you have the gsm version (the one that needs a sim) you should use it on gsm carriers.

Hope this helps.

Hello.
Try to use the MEID info in the #help*help screen to try to activate the phone.
If you still cannot, you need to fix MEID and ESN file on your phone.

I have this phone through verizon. Can I switch to straight talk? Can I keep my number and contacts ?

if you have a plan with verizon and it is locked into that service provider then you will probably have to pay out the contract before you will be allowed to change over to a new service provider
AS to keeping the same number that will up to the service providers , so best you direct all discussion to them to get the results you want
you have a phone , call their customer people direct

Changing towers

The only way to change to a different tower is to change phone AT&T carrier to Verizon carrier. The unlock code is your password. There is no unlock code to change towers. You have to cancel service at AT&T and start service at Verizon.

How to sim unlock my samsung galaxy s4 sch 1545

if the phone is locked on to a nominated service provider, the only people to can unlock it to go to a different service provider is the company you are with
Normally that will incur a fee so be prepared after talking to your service provider to pay a heft sum to have it unlocked

I keep getting dropped calls on my Samsung Galaxy S4. What can I do? Never happened before last week.

If you have ample signal then its probably your phone. I had an old phone that would start squealing when I talked on it for more than 2 minutes. Verizon should be able to give you a different phone if you have insurance.

YoYo the spammer of all Samsung questions is back!!!

The Samsung Smooth is a CDMA phone since it is offered through Verizon. It is possible to unlock this phone, but very difficult and requires advanced unlock software.
