Droid 3 to work with Red Pocket?

[Carson0]

Hi.

I have an unlocked Droid 3 that used to be on the verizon network. Can I get this phone to work with Red Pocket?

Nope - Red Pocket is a GSM carrier and the Droid 3 is CDMA. Apples and Oranges if you'll forgive the pun.

To bad Red Pocket doesn't know that....or will tell you that if they do know. In any case, do you know of another pre-paid provider that will work?

I got the Droid when I had my contract with Verizon. I just recently purchased the unlock code from some company.

The only CDMA networks are Sprint and Verizon, and Sprint won't activate a Verizon phone.

I am looking at Page Plus, and it looks like they are on the CDMA network. Anybody know if they might be a good bet to work with my phone?

How much was the code?

Just under $9. I got it from the Unlock Shack. I really have no idea if I paid to much. I am in no way experienced with these things.

Try Cricket - there are companies that will flash your phone to work with Cricket but there are some trade off's data does not always work great, MMS can be hit or miss.

Sad fact is with CDMA there are not a lot of options.

Page Plus is an MVNO, using Verizon's network. Can you bring your own phone to them? Not legally, and only for a very limited number of phones.

Wrong, u can bring any Verizon phone (I heard iPhones have problems getting data), and they are very helpful in getting ur phone programmed. I just bought a Dinc2 on eBay and its working great on Pageplus. Got my number ported and it was working within an hour. Also, u can get Sprint phones working on their network too. U just have to send them the phone so they can program it. I haven't heard if anyone has been able to get their Sprint phone programmed from home. Very happy with their service so far though.
