Nope, you can't

Yes you can they both are cdma. Some people have less knowledge then they say they do but anyway.... Boost virgin and Sprint are all running cdma. But I have actually activated a sprint phone to virgin mobile for a friend of mine. Everything worked right after activating which actually suprised me but I still had to flash virgin mobile firmware on it which makes it a virgin mobile phone. I think they need to ask questions before they let people tell you something that's just a down right wrong answer. With flashing and odin and mobile odin and a just a lunix emulator you can do a lot.

In short, the answer is "No."

Why? It's complicated. The main reason is that even though Sprint is CDMA and Virgin Mobile is also CDMA, the difference is that Virgin Mobile offers cheap service (but) requires that you buy an expensive phone to utilize their service and their phones are not unlockable, meaning they cannot be transferred to another company. Virgin Mobile is so greedy you can't transfer any other carriers phones to virgin mobile nor can you use their phones and transfer service from Virgin Mobile (such as, to Sprint). It's just how it is.

I have been wondering the same thing but no one ever knows the answer because there is absolutely no way of contacting Virgin mobile, they have really good plans but sucky customer service.

Can you flash a sprint iPhone to virgin mobile?

No one can not flash a Sprint iPhone to Virgin Mobile. The main reason for this is because Sprint has always used some feature that lets the user only work that certain phone with Sprint. To better understand the reasoning the best way to do that would be to contact Sprint.

Can you use an AirCard 250U on Virgin mobile?

No, the Sierra Wireless 250U is a Sprint device, and will only work on Sprint. While Virgin is cheaper, it is also slower on 3G than Sprint. Plus Virgin does not even offer 4G, which is one of the main reasons to get the 250U.

Can you unlock boost mobile phones to use with virgin mobile?

The answer to that question is Possibly, and No. Half of the Boost Mobile phones use IDEN radios (Integrated Digital Enhanced Network). The phones are easy to identify- they have Direct Connect (the "chirp"). These CAN NOT be used on any service but Boost Mobile, or if unlocked, Nextel (Or Telus in Canada). The other half of the Boost Mobile Phones use CDMA radios (Code Division Multiple Access), and could feasibly be unlocked to be used with Virgin Mobile. Whether Virgin Mobile would choose to allow them on the network is a whole additional answer (doubtful), but the technology technically would work.

Can all T-Mobile phones be used on their prepaid plans?

No. Sprint uses CDMA and PCS technology, while T-Mobile uses GSM, so the Sprint phone would be incompatible with the T-Mobile network. Plus, Sprint phones are generally locked to Sprint anyway, so you couldn't use it even if T-Mobile offered CDMA.
