I found a web page at Verizon that lets me check on a specific phone.

Sometimes all it needs is the model, sometimes it needs who it was bought from, and worst case it needs the MEID.



Not...

WHITELIST! THAT'S the word I've been needing! THANK YOU for that!

Is this a 'thing' that Joe Sixpack can get a copy of or does it only exist in Verizon's 'head'? I tried searching their website...

I'm running the LineageOS 15.1 ROM on the HTC, which is Android 8.1. And I don't use Play Store.

And now we've come back to one of the questions I posed in the OP.



If I don't have to be...

It's an Android phone, currently running LineageOS. The phone model listed under Settings> About Phone> Device model is m8wl. The model printed on the case is HTC6525L. The sku is HTC6525LVW. I...

This probably is the wrong forum but I was even more confused about the warren of possibilities if I went any deeper.

I'm on a Verizon MVNO and my provider (PPC) has not given me a comprehensible...

At the moment I've got an HTC One M8 on PPC, and PPC's support weenie has just told me they will no longer support my phone after the end of the year because it isn't VoLTE-capable. To think that...

A buddy is getting bombarded with porn spam messages on a Motorola Z2 Play (Nougat). It's a Verizon phone and AFAIK there's no root available for the Vzw version and the only call blockers I have...

I get by on used phones and the battery of the M8 I have now is showing signs of impending death so I'm looking at replacing it either with another M8 or an M9. Since neither one has a...

The problem appears to be resolved now. It took three days but I finally got a kick-back from my email service host containing an error message that helped resolve the problem. The crux of the...

I don't have that capability.

I tried sending from two different online fake email sites and neither of them arrived. Which exonerates my local email client and my email provider. Then I chatted with PPC support (pardon the...

I'm not receiving texts to my phone when I'm emailing to [email protected] or [email protected], both with and without "quotes" surrounding the telephone number. I last used the vtext address...

I changed phones again and the reception problems seem to have resolved. I haven't used it extensively away from home yet but text messages all seem to be arriving right on cue, even when I'm at my...

Several months ago I changed phones (from an LG to a Samsung) and the problem persists. Yesterday I was in "cell phone parking" at the local airport, waiting for a friend to text me that he had his...

I have reception "problems" with my cell phone, most notably at home. Even though my phone usually shows five bars (out...

I'm a smartphone bottom feeder. I've been using my first smartphone, an LG Optimus Fuel (LG34C, KitKat 4.4) for about two years, and I've been happy enough with it that I wasn't willing to spend...

I'm gonna miss BYOW's CSRs. I couldn't get the phone I'd had on BYOW moved to another network because I didn't take the steps to transfer my account before 01 September. And when I did try, my MEID...

PPC's CSRs had to take four runs at it before the port-in finally went through, but the BYOW agent's trick did the job.


And kudos to Desiree Templeton.

BYOW went away and I needed a new home for my LG34C. Messages from BYOW said my account would be moved to Selectel, and that I should create an account with Selectel if I wanted them to continue my...

Thank you for that info, Prepay Refill. It was my intention to try what you suggested this morning, but when I checked my email I had a reply from one of the BYOW CS agents who I had dealt with...

PPC will not port in the number because the MEID is locked.


Not altogether. Budget does not service my area, so I got Selectel instead. And Selectel says it's nothing to do with them because...

When BYOW sold out, I didn't transfer my account to Selectel, I just held on until my BYOW account was nearly expired and then started trying to transfer it to PPC, where I already have another...

I found an old post stating that this particular carrier (Silver Star) is a roaming partner to Sprint. Does this mean that any phone Sprint supports, Silver Star also likely will support?

So frequencies is the only potential trip-up?

And thanks much for the link, the super. Just my luck, the carrier I'm looking at is so rinky-dink, they're not on the list.

I asked basically this same question in the "Other Carriers" forum, worded somewhat differently, but maybe I'll get a better result here.

Let's say I want to put a smartphone of my choosing on a...
