I'm getting mixed information whether this phone will work on FreedomPop. Has anyone purchased recently and got it to work?

I bought this phone about 3 months ago and went to 4 different service providers and they ALL told me the same thing, this phone is a SPRINT phone and will only work with a Sprint service provider. I do not have 'FreedomPop' service where I live, but I can almost guarantee you that it will not work with them either. Even though it is 'illegal' now to have phones 'Locked', Sprint somehow has found a loop hole around this. I messaged this seller to try to get my money back or get a phone that was not locked to Sprint and they never got back to me so I am now STUCK using Sprint as my provider. Hope this helps.

I got mine to work on Freedompop. Just don't get the triband spark model that one won't work. I actually changed mine from Freedompop to chitchat mobile. Call quality is much better if u need voice calls.

The phone should work once you purchase it being unlocked by the manufacture.

I found this phone works really well with metro pcs, but my picture messages have never worked. My friend also had the same problem with his picture messages on his international phone. Other than that it's a great phone and it will work in other countries if I needed it too.

Hi, Christy K.Is this a phone you are trying to purchase from AMAZON? I bought one that was Sprint ready last year, after my phone was stolen. I made sure it was supported by Sprint before I purchased it. I had no problems activating it. I hope this helps you.Rob H.

Yes, I tmobile and the phone works great. I just had to do a system update after I loaded my info and it works great.

Yes, it works. But I wouldn't recommend anyone to buy unlocked version of this phone. I have a lot of problems with it. I can't get updates Also the phone reloads often without any reasons or when it's getting multitasks like you are getting a text message during the phone call. Unlocked version is really annoying I wish I didn't have it.Also you can't get service to fix something in this phone it in the USA you should ship it to Europe.

I currently live in Ecuador and I bought an unlocked phone. It works really smooth and nice although I´m having a little bit of troubles with the conectivity of the Whatsapp application and it hasn´t updated to windows 8.1 yet. Beside these issues everything is great, specially the camera!

This mobile is direct from HTC so I think it will work with every mobile operator, I bought it from, good guys electronics, and they confirmed that its direct from HTC ,as I read in reviews other sellers sell at&t; branded phones and then you must unlock...i have that phone already 3 weeks and works perfectly. Hope it will be helpful for you

Try to read the posts and reviews of people that purchased the phone before. I had a global sim put in. And it said roaming. The activation required message still shows on top. I will suggest you read the solution to your problem from the reviews after you tried just to make a regular call if it did not work. It is a very nice phone.

I got mine and tried to use it in Mexico, it did work. I request the return item and the vendor sent me an unlock code, but still having problems with 3G and 4G, calls are OK but with no internet service, only wifi. Iam still trying to return it.

Honestly when I bought the phone I thought great deal for a cute phone. The phone is in the garbage right now. I could not save anything even with a memory card. Before the memory card I could only save 1 picture if I kept any texts with a 32 g memory card I could save 2' service was fuzzy. I could never understand who I was talking too. Many calls never came through. I do not know if it is compatible but I just put in phones for t mobile and it came up. Hope this helps. Wendy

I am pretty certain that this is in fact true. Just check with the provider if they support the phone. Mine did, and it works fine.

I did that today. My phone is active right now WiFi only. I received two free texts from Verizon, so I know the phone is working. I also bought a 15 minute card, but didn't activate it. I set up an account at MyVerizon. They didn't ask for any money.

my phone was unlocked when purchased. I found that if you change the direction that you put in the sim card it should work.
