What does Sprint run on? I know it's all digital, is it 1900mhz? A friend of mine asked me if it was possible to use a Korean phone with Sprint (he doesn't intend on switching to VZW). Initially I told him it was unlikely with the Korean phones running on 800AMPS/800mhz but can someone clarify this?
Sprint is all 1900 in their licensed areas. You can roam on 800 I believe, but Sprint and T-Mobile only own 1900 licenses.
Sprint runs on 1900 mhz. The Sprint phones (if your phone is tri-mode it can also roam on other carriers 800 mhz network, but to use Vision and certain other features you have to be on Sprint's network...1900 mhz). The other Sprint users can confirm this.
Matt is correct.....but it helps if your phone is tri-mode just in case you go to a area that Sprint doesn't cover.
Thanks everybody for clearing that up. Seriously? Didn't know that Sprint was tight a$$ed about that.
AT&T Wireless was the same way. But since they've learned a few lessons after what happened to them, they are beginning to use their head in the last few months.
What I understand about US Cellular when they went CDMA is only letting US Cellular CDMA phones to be serviced. You can't service a phone that is Verizon or Sprint or Alltel ect. phones. I think that is a dumb idea. If It can do CDMA on cellular and PCS they should service it. And telling them that if it is not one of our phone other features may not work. That is what Verizon does.
