Would the phone work with the american provider Sprint? Also if I were to get this the internet wouldn't work in america?

No it will not, Sprint is CDMA which is an American only network, and the phone was made to work on GSM. No the internet, tv, etc.features only work in Japan.

it won't work with any american provider and you have to buy a special charger also because there only has a phone in it

No, as an unlocked phone it will only work with GSM Carriers providing their services using a SIM Card, it will not work with CDMA Carriers such as Sprint, Verizon or any other CDMA Carrier._________________________________________________________________

Hello!The phone is currently locked with Sprint, but it definitely CAN be unlocked to work in Brazil or any other country. The 4G system would work.

Thank you VERY MUCH...So let me see if I completely understand this:1) I buy an unlocked phone2) I take the card out of my sprint phone, and put it into the unlocked phone.3) the new unlocked phone WORKS.Is that correct?Are there services that will NOT work when I do things this way? For instance, this phone can browse the internet, and act as a modem. Do I lose those services (or others) if I buy the phone unlocked and use it on Sprint?Thank you again, I really appreciate your time.Dmitri

No you can't , sprint doesn't work with SIM cards only AT&T; . I wouldn't suggest this phone to anybody. When I received this phone it wouldn't connect to sprint,

As its a sprint phone and sprint is in the USA, I'd say not easily.If it is possible you'll need ask sprint, or better yet Apple!

This is an unlocked *GSM* phone. It will work with any GSM carrier (T-Mobile and AT&T; in the U.S., but pretty much any carrier elsewhere in the world), but Sprint and Verizon are CDMA carriers. This phone will not work on sprint. To find a phone for sprint, search for an unlocked CDMA phone.

No, I Paid for unlocked phone, but received an unlocked Sprint phone. I did not realize it until I had traveled abroad, and discovered that the phone was locked. So the phone is useless to me as I can not use it abroad.

It's supposed to work with all the US carriers, but I'm not sure about sprint. I have only tested it with Verizon, however.

Yes, it's an unlocked phone. It will work with GSM networks like AT&T; and T-Mobile but NOT Sprint or Verizon!If you use Cricket or Wal☆Wart phone service, you need to ask your servive provider regarding download speeds and choking.

Unlocked means it will accept standard SIM cards allowing it to be used in various countries when the proper SIM is inserted. If Sprint is available via SIM in your location, then yes it should work. But check with Sprint first! Good luck.

Sprint uses CDMA network and AT&T; is GSM network and you can only use this phone for Sprint. The answer is no. Sorry...

This phone is an unlocked GSM phone, meaning that you will need to insert a SIM card into it to work. Sprint is CDMA (no SIM card) so it will not work with this phone.

I believe your ability to use the phone in another country, depends on your cellular provider and your contract restrictions. The phone itself is a "world phone" and the hardware will work anywhere, but if your contract doesn't cover international calls, you will be hit with huge cellular and data upcharges.

I do not have 'Ting' service where I live but I can almost guarantee you that it won't work with them. I bought this phone a few months ago and went to about 5 different service providers and they all told me the same thing, this phone can ONLY be used with Sprint service... I know the seller said that it will work, hope they know what they are talking about because that was not what every service provider I went to said. I was told that if any provider can get the phone to work, it would be Boost Mobile, even THEY couldn't do it!
