" ... The one I am returning is bloated with Sprint garbage when I was trying to buy an unlocked phone for t-mobile. ... "
" ... My phone came with a caller i.d app that I cannot disable. ... "
" ... The phone they sent me was not unlocked. ... It was a locked Sprint phone that does not connect to the Verizon network. ... "
" ... However it was not truly unlocked. ... I found it couldn't send MMS messages while on WiFi and it also had a SPRINT notification at the top that would not go away regarding activation. ... After hours of troubleshooting and reading that using a Sprint unlocked phone on an AT&T Network I may never be able to send or receive picture messages normally I decided to send it back being such a big investment. ... "
" ... I thought to myself "thats not good" but since this is my first phone I've purchased that is "unlocked" I thought maybe this was normal. ... I use the verizon network and this phone would not work no matter what settings I messed with. ... "
