Has anyone had success in activating an unlocked S7 on Verizon? Model number SM-G930U?
I purchased one directly from Samsung. Put in the SIM from my iPhone 5. I was able to make precisely one phone call immediately after installing the SIM. Then I texted the same person, and the text failed to send. From that point forward, the S7 refuses to connect to the Verizon network.
The Verizon support rep whom I spoke with says the phone might not work on the Verizon network. So I may end up returning it and buying an iPhone instead. He was not able to do anything on his end to enable the phone to connect.
For now, I've returned my SIM to my iPhone, and that phone connects just fine.
It's a long shot, but I thought I would post here in the event that I'm missing some key step in getting the S7 to connect.
