The
problem with these phones is they will not work on a gsm network. They
operate on a iDEN network so it might not work with other service
providers. Here are a few sites you can try.
I'm sorry to tell you, but an
ic902 can never be unlocked to work properly on any other system - to include the Boost system. Here's why. The ic902 is a
hybrid phone. That is, it uses two different cellular systems to
operate. Specifically, voice calls on the ic902 are placed over the
Sprint CDMA network and Push-to-Talk (PTT) calls are transmitted over
Nextel's iDEN network.
Boost Mobile calling (both, voice and
PTT) uses the iDEN network from Nextel. Thus, the ic902's radio
transmitter (which is CDMA) cannot make calls on the Boost ( iDEN )
system.
Moreover, if you plan to use Boost Mobile, I STRONGLY
suggest that you NOT purchase a Nextel phone and have it unlocked to use
for Boost.
Although Nextel and Boost phones seem the same -
they are not. If you look at the model number of Nextel phones most of
them end in a zero. (ie., i850, i870 etc.) where Boost Mobile Phones
end with the number five. (ie., i855, i875, etc.) This is because the
transmitters in the phones are set to different frequencies for
different purposes (like for texting.)
If you go to eBay for
example, those who sell unlocked Nextel phones to use for Boost (if
they're honest) will inform potential buyers in their eBay listings that
their unlocked Nextel phone will not (text, for example) on the Boost
network. These unlocked Nextel phones will have limitations when used
on Boost.
To prevent problems down the road, ALWAYS purchase a
Boost phone to use on the Boost network.

Hi
I don't think you can use the i580 on ATT. That phone is IDEN, and ATT is GSM, different types of networks. Telus, in Canada , uses it too. I got one for my brother in Canada and he's trying to get the unlock code so he can use it to replace his broken one.
I know you can unlock it online for $25, but we bought it unlocked and the seller is working on getting the unlock code for his phone.
Please confirm this by checking- because I would be really surprised if an IDEN phone can work on a GSM network , even if it uses a SIM card.
