Gvoice Number Porting - LIVE for everyone!

According to the Gvoice blog, it's live, live live.

Same error for me.

I don't even get the link to check my phone. It shows a Sprint logo though.

Noticed the prompt this morning, still not sure if I'll make the change. Kind of like the dual number juggle myself.

im getting an error too....

if you have any type of discount you can't do it till sprint fixes there i386 lol
inorder to do it you have to contact sprint get them to remove your discount till the google sprint kicks in then get them to reapply your discount

Yeah, I'm on the phone with Sprint right now. Went to tech support, the first guy had no idea what google voice was.....then he sent me to someone else, and now I am talking to business relations because I have a employee discount.....talk about a headache!

Gahhh, screw it. I don't want to mess with sprint.
What I was planning on doing iis porting this number to another one of my gmail accounts, then I'd just use the gvoice app to keep using my current gvoice number, which I only use for texting ; I use my sprint number for calls.

It probably won't, since most of the people at Sprint probably don't even know what Google Voice is, let alone what color the Sprint logo is.

im still not clear on what the big deal is about this, it doesnt sound that great but thats just me i guess

I have an employee discount an ported my number to GVoice no problem last week.... Am I going to lose my discount or something?

Well, that was great, on the phone with 5 different people to find out that certain types of phones accounts will not work with this (pre-paid, nextel, corporate and government accounts). So, if you get a discount for being in the military, you can't do this.

Google should just buy Sprint and get into the market that way.

Anyone out there already use gv callback with sprint to home? That's what I currently use and wondering if there's any benefit (or drawback) to porting. ?

If you use your Google voice as your sprint to home number it will not work any more because your sprint number will be your GV number. Your GV number will go away after 3 months once you convert.

Full retail price AT&T Note 3 Sim Unlock

My Note 3 was paid in full. I called AT&T yesterday and talked with 3 representatives.
The 1st one told me to wait a year till the end of my contract and hung me up.
The 2nd one told me to wait at least 60 days and hung me up.
The 3rd one told me to contact with Samsung to unlock. I gave him an earful and he setup a "high priority case" for getting me the unlock code.
This morning, I got the code and successfully unlock my Note 3......

i am not having great luck getting mine unlocked. did you go through a certain phone number or anything like that?

so the purpose of the code is to unlock the phone and be able to use with other carriers. My belief was that if you buy a phone full price, it would be automatically unlocked? Isn't that so?

Buying a phone from At&t at full price DOES NOT mean its unlocked. I bought two Note 3's, one full priced (from At&t Next) and one on contract.
Called the next day for unlock codes, the woman told me to call in 15 days and only the one that was paid in full could be unlocked. They just didnt have the codes in the system. I've been with At&t a few years now and my account is in good standing. Usually after a month or so I call and they give me the unlock, contract or not. But I just went ahead and ran chanfire's unlock app and it worked. Both phones unlocked. Much easier than having to hassle with At&t. I'm on At&t so I really dont care/need the unlock. But its nice to have I guess.

thats kind of how things went for me. in the past ive called in for an unlock and got it though those other times were after id had the phone for awhile.
this time the first person said to go to the unlock site and request it and if it was denied to call back and try another route. theyd look over my account history and all that stuff in that case. anyways, on the unlock site as soon as i put in my imei number it said it couldnt be done. i called in and the person i talked to this time said something about the unlock codes not being in the system. he sounded sincere about it and it made sense, but to be honest i really didnt believe it. i just didnt see why they wouldnt have them. in the end i ran the unlock app and its been going fine since saturday.

I have a question, If I have an Note 3 from AT&T and unlock the Note 3 and has been reported lost, I can use it with Straight Talk?

The phone will be back listed with At&t. Pretty much it won't be able to be activated on At&t again. If it's unlocked it should work. However, I have seen some stores check the phone's IMEI status and they only take phone's with clean a IMEI/ESN.
But you've already given the impression that you are guilty of some suspicious activity with that post. Just be careful, and always stay legit!

Works just fine on Straight Talk. I've been using it for a week or two...
What the previous poster said about it working on AT&T if the phone has been reported lost. If its an AT&T based MVNO such as Straight Talk, Net10, AIO, or Go Phone running on the AT&T network a lost and blacklisted phone WILL NOT work even if it's unlocked. You shouldn't have any problems using it on T-Mobile or using a T-Mobile based Straight Talk card since AT&T and T-Mobile aren't sharing blacklisted IMEI's.
And about those "lost" phones... Nothing sketchy there at all.

Will it work if you upgraded to SM-900A for Sim Unlock to any carrier??? Will they do it you think vs you paid full price??

Sim Unlock
There's SIM unlock instructions from other post in General section, just root the phone and use Chainfire's Region Lock Away. And its free.
Please keep in mind, once you root your phone ISIS mobile wallet will not work... Which is fine, I don't use it enough to care about it.
---------- Post added at 05:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:09 PM ----------
Here are the links to SIM unlock from this XDA developers, please thanks them for their hard work.
ROOT instructions:

Region Lock Away - will also unlock carrier - Confirmed on 2 Note 3s on AT&T.

Please thanks if I've helped in any ways.
If your phone is reported "lost or stolen" it will be blacklist from the original carrier and eventually to all US carriers.

Bought a Verizon PrePaid Moto G Today...

So let me tell you how this went down...
First, I go to a local Best Buy Mobile store to check out the Moto G for my girlfriend. They tell me they can't sell me one in the store until Jan. 9th, but if I purchase one online and choose to pickup in the store, I could get one. So I stand in the store, buy the phone on my GS4, and pick it up at the counter. Weird process, but whatever.
So I bought the phone. The lady at the register assured me that I would be able to use this on her line (which is a contract line). Go to activate it, and find out that it can't be done until the 9th. That's cool, no problem. Once I get home, I find out that the phone will only work on a prepaid line and BestBuy did not inform me of this. I go back up to the store to return it, but they won't take it back because it's opened. Oh, I forgot to mention, the lady at the damn counter was the one who opened it!
So, is there ANY way that I could get this to activate on a contract line without having it activated on a prepaid line for 6 months, or am I screwed? If not, is there a good way to bypass the activation and use it solely as a wifi "tablet" (for my girlfriend's kid)?
If I actually am screwed, anyone want this thing for $80 shipped in the continental US?

That's a lie about it being opened. I have returned prepaid phone there on several occasions. There is something either shady about your story or the person working but something isn't adding up here.

You can bypass the activation easily, simply hit next 1 time, pull down the notification center, click on the multitasking button and swipe away the activation screen quickly, and boom! You have a $100 iPod touch alternative (which is why I bought it) I recorded a short video to show you, wiped it real quick because I just got it yesterday anyways

Cool story, brah. Nonetheless, I guess you missed the fact that he bought this for his girlfriend who is under contract with Verizon which is a CDMA carrier. You can't buy a GSM phone and use it on a CDMA carrier. The only time one would need a SIM card slot is if you're using it on Sprint or Verizon's LTE network and since this phone doesn't have LTE....

Thanks for the responses guys! I'll try the unlock method later tonight when I have the phone in hand again (girlfriend still has it at the moment).
As for the return policy, I agree with y'all. I probably should be able to take it back, but the lady at the counter seemed like she might have been new or something. I actually tried to take it back about 4 hours later, so way within the 14 day window mentioned earlier.
On a side note, I won't be using the phone either way as I just went ahead and bought a like-new GS3 from a friend that she is going to use (wish I would have known he was selling it PRIOR to all this). If I can use it as a tablet, I'll just let her kid have it, but if not, I'll try and take it back again.
Will keep everyone posted!

keep us posted guy, I might take you up on that offer.
Good luck.

Correct. After being told they didn't have any at my local store I was happy to inform them that they had 8 of them in stock which was very easy to find out online, and a little arguing about whether or not they could sell it yet, as well as a call to their Verizon rep, I finally was able to procure a Moto G without activating it. Hoping to find out this will work immediately with PagePlus.

Good news everyone, I was able to bypass the activation screen and unlock the phone for "tablet" use (using the methods mentioned in this thread). After playing with the phone for a little while, I gotta say, I actually like the thing! While we won't be using this as a phone, I will probably keep it to use as a MP3 player for the house.
I played around with the features a little and the only real disappointment that I saw was the camera. Maybe I'm use to the 13MP on the GS4, but the picture quality just didn't seem very good. Better than my girlfriend's old iPhone 4, but lacking nonetheless.

Let me know how that works out. I tried and the pageplus rep said that the phone was unable to work, and it needed to be 'unlocked.' I wonder if I just got someone who didn't know what to do.

I returned my Verizon prepaid moto g today to BB. I did not have any issues. They did check to see if it had been activated. They turned the phone on and seeing the activate wizard appear turned it off. They only thing I didn't get back was the $0.70 for a 911 fee.

[Q][New Verizon Activation]

Has anyone activated the MXP as a new Verizon contract? I have read thorough the post and have seen mostly people that have already had Verizon contracts and just put that Sim in the MXP.

I'm wondering the same having only used GSM phones. So far I'm using my AT&T SIM but believe Verizon has better coverage in my area (western CT).
On their site I started here (scroll down) with the 'I'm not with Verizon' button, then chose 'I have my own device' on the popup and got to a page I can't directly link that asks for my device ID/IMEI, and then tells me "The phone associated with the Device ID you entered is not compatible with the Verizon Wireless network."
I would like the 3 GB $45/mo plan and am assuming that's with no contract and should be available for the Moto XPE, right? I can go to a store but I'd like to know the facts first to avoid getting derailed by unknowledgeable/uncooperative staff, though I'd prefer doing it online if I can get past the phone ID barrier. Maybe they'll update their approved phones soon but I'd like to shift over before the 20th when my current month ends with AT&T. Should I try calling them and has anyone done that successfully?

I called the number on the website and got a sales associate who also took my IMEI and said it's not currently 'registered' (the word he used) on Verizon, so I can't get a new account using it. He couldn't/wouldn't give any clear idea on if/when it will be but did say the new plans are no-contract now. My guess is a store will tell us the same thing, so won't bother unless we hear of success stories from others and how they did it.

Or simply buy a regular sim card for htc m9 on ebay or wherever and then chat with them or call and ask them to activate without device,tell them you are using non-vzw device which works just fine on Verizon,or some people had success at corporate stores with managers activating,or if you have a good premium retailer try that as well.

Need an imei of a device that takes a nano sim that is allowed on VZW network. I wasn't making a new account but I needed the nano sim. Wife's device (galaxy s6)is on the account and had the VZW rep use her device imei to issue me a simcard. Works perfect.

This is why I think using a prepaid Sim might work, because since is under Verizon's BYOD, Bring Your Own Device, that they will allow it to be activated. I am then wondering if I then ask for a normal contract if it would be simpler.

There's only 3 places to buy from: Motorola, Amazon and Best Buy. If you're buying from Best Buy, they can activate it for you. I believe with Amazon, you would have to go to your carrier just like if you bought from Motorola.

Pretty irritating
I bought the prepaid sim pack yesterday & spent an hour and a half on the phone with them and can't get it activated. Does anyone know what to do? Apparently the device isn't in the system according to the techs I spoke with even though you can enter it in the device compatibility and it says it is

Is it possible to get the MLS code without root?

Phone is awesome but there are problems in the use of other operators abroad USA. Is it possible to get the MLS code without root?

call Sprint customer service and ask for it, if they didn't give it to you call again and you will get it

I'm not in the US

*MSL ?
Anyway Sprint chat can also give it to you.

To get my MSL I had to email an executive since I didn't have an account to prove the phone was fully paid off, can't think of why this would matter.
This was at release though so it could be different

To get your MSL, feel free to contact me via PM. I can not either confirm nor deny that i may or may not be an employee of sprint (simply cell phone sales).

I know this is an old thread, but since I am still getting the requests, I'd like to say,
If you want your MSL, thats all fine and jazz. But if I get a message about it, I need your esn and the device needs to be currently on a sprint network. No ESN does nothing for me, and the system I use to get the MSL's cannot find the MSL for a device that is not currently on the network. So when you message me, throw your ESN in there. Wanna be awesome? Add your phone number and make my life 10 times easier.
Thanks!
