Can you use cricket phones with straight talk services?

Answer 1

No, manufactorers of phones program the phone for each company. You cannot take a phone from one provider to another.

I'm not sure where you got your information but that is wrong you can flash some phones to work on other networks.

Yes you can flash just about any phone to any major provider but it has to be and I'm going to dumb it down a little SIM card(gsm) to SIM card(gsm) or cdma to cdma meaning no sim card. So sprint and Verizon, boost mobile, virgin mobile, cricket mobile. All these are cdma. Now at&t, T-Mobile, Trac phone, net ten and some others I.can't think of right now are gsm needing a SIM card.

Now after saying ask that I have been hearing rumors that it is possible and has been done but I'm calling b.s right now cause if there is no SIM port (cdma) then you need the SIM in the phone somehow from let's say at&t now I have never taken a phone a part but but it does look like there is a SIM on the board now if your this crazy the only way I see that working I'd to take a Sprint phone apart if it looks and measures up and looks right pop it off the board and stick it in a at&t phone and now that your Sprint phone is now destroyed your still going to have to root the at&t phone and figure out how to program Linux to find cdma. And all the other stuff your going to have to do.

Answer 2

I'm not sure if a sprint phone would work, but I have recently used a Verizon wireless phone with cricket and it worked just fine.

No, only straight talk phones purchased at Walmart will work
