I want to buy my wife a Motorola Razr as a surprise gift. Sprint is her carrier but does not appear to offer the Razr. Are unbranded/unlocked CDMA Razr's available? If not, are Sprint branded Razrs available from third party vendors?

Razrs are not available for Sprint, the CDMA version will be coming to Verizon by years end according to some info posted here and other forums.

And if you buy a Korean CDMA Razr 2 things will go wrong.

1.) Sprint won't activate it.

2.) Even if they did it won't work on there network.

Korean, Verizon or any version, as long as is not made for Sprint they will not activate it period.

Samsung has a RAZR like phone comming out for Sprint. It should be out early next year from what I have heard.

Tony E! · 10-09-2005, 2:18 PM

Yes forgot about that one, but still , it's not a Razr...

Hello, I was able to get a razr cdma, 800 mhz only, with the ESN of my sprint line, activated it perfectly. I even got a second phone for backup and havent used it. Phone cost me 500 dlls each.
If you have any questions pleas eemail me jbaboun@hotmail.com
Thanks

Sorry, but I highly doubt you got the phone active on Sprint.

1. Sprint will not activate any non Sprint phones, period.
2. Sprint is 1900 MHz only, so that 800 MHz only phone would not be able to register on Sprint's network.

I would love to be proven wrong, so please discribe how it was done in detail. Also some pics would help too.

SprintEnigma · 12-05-2005, 9:38 PM

theres the A900 its the sprint version of the razor available now... I know we have ours in.

geronomo12 · 12-10-2005, 1:02 AM

The Samsung A900 is very much like the Razr. They call theirs the Blade.

yeah......when Sprint receives the phone from the manufacturers.....the ESN is logged in their system and when an activation is attempted......the ESN is cross-referenced in the system....it would be virtually impossible to activate a phone whose ESN wasnt in the system unless by some odd happening you managed to hack into Sprint's systems and add the ESN to their database
