Question
I have a Sprint Samsung Instinct phone not connected. Could it be possible to connect it on Boost Mobile now that they have the CDMA network?
As per my knowledge and some web research this change is effective since January 2010.
Thank you very much,
Alice
If Sprint will allow you to activate the Instinct with Boost service, then you can do it. It's still up to Sprint as to what they will activate and not activate. If your Boost service is running on both the iDEN and CDMA network, and Sprint will agree to activate the Instinct for your service, it will work. You can't activate without Sprint, so just ask them if they will do this for you. Let me know if you run into a problem. I hope this helps. Thanks. DebiN
