Changing Verizon to SaskTel on a 700wx

Guys, I'm not a magician on this stuff, but I have a 700wx I used on Verizon and I was transferred out of the country for the province of Saskatchewan, Canada.  The local supplier here is a company by the name of SaskTel and I was in their store and they sell this phone.  The guy there told me I have to give up this phone and buy a new one if I want to use it on their network...  What the hell is going on here?  This is supposed to be a smart phone and it's software all the ducts.  Why can't I just have this thing about the new provider?  Looks like it should be a no-brainer...

Any help would be appreciated

Unfortunately, we are talking about CDMA network smartphones and not network GSM smartphones.

A you have purchased a GSM smartphone or mobile phone, it would have been very easy to unlocked do (remove placed and fixed by the initial carrier subsidy lock) so that you can use any SIM card on the phone on any GSM network.  For CDMA carriers and networks such as Verizon, Sprint, Bell, Telus, etc., it is not that simple.

Although it is technically capable of being used on another network CDMA, CDMA carriers refuse to activate and simply allow the use of another company because they force you to sign these contracts in the long term with them.  With almost all North American carriers CDMA refusing to activate the competing phones, they can continue to maintain this practice and force you to stay with them.

Your best option is to sell the 700wx for Verizon and get a SaskTel phone or see if you can get a GSM smartphone.  Your mobile PHONE choice for a Windows Mobile device would be a Treo 750 or 850.

  • Make any changes required by Verizon & now T-Bird will not work

    Verizon has close their old servers forcing me to change my Thunderbird e-mail server information. Everything is as they require - incoming is pop.verizon.net active SSL port 995 and outgoing is smtp.verizon.net active ssl port 465. Thunderbird is now unable to connect. No change of password, so it's not a problem. Incoming and outgoing timeout.

    My wife just changed something on our router, and that solved the problem. Not sure why it worked before and then has not, but the problem solved.

  • I want to change from Verzion to MSN as my ISP actions. Having an account with MSN resume automatically once I have cancel Verizon

    You want to change service provider broadband to my AOL account.  Currently, I have Verizon and want to change to MSN. I have an email account set up MSN and would like to know if it will automatically come my provider once I cancel Verizon

    As far as I KNOW, MSN offers only remote access (and then only in some remote parts of the country). See http://get.msn.com/

    -Online Note: "MSN Dial-up Accelerator" is NOT identical to broadband!

    That being said...

    If you decide to give up Verizon, your account of name @msn.com will still be available via www.hotmail.com.

    If you have an account of name @verizon.net , you can transfer it to your MSN/Hotmail account. See https://secure5.trueswitch.com/hotmail/

  • Verizon in-home agent asked to change my settings in order to to use. Told me to restart my computer and when I did, everything was small: the email. How.do I recover my old settings?

    The Home Agent is a Verizon service that is supposed to help with issues related to their FIOS, Internet and phone service. When you click first on the icon it asks to change the settings of your computer and shows that you can still change their return, but does not tell you how to do this.  My Windows mail already has the largest size of text, but it is still very small.

  • Verizon to AOL webmail e-mail changes affect Windows Live Mail

    When AOL acquired Verizon webmail webmail, I have had to change my user name and password.  Now the program Windows Live Mail, which I used for years will not connect, even if the e-mail address is still the same.  I think I may need to change the server on my Windows Mail account information, but I'm not sure what to enter.  After having spent two hours on the phone last night (for most pending) with the support of AOL, speaking with 3 different people and then be disconnected, I hate calling them once again.  I hope someone can help. Thank you!

    Try smtpout.verizon.net port 587 (or 465 with tls/ssl recommended). This requires that you send mail from an account @verizon.net. Since the switch, you can send mail to other accounts or personal addresses or to work. If you need you will need to sign up for a third-party smtp relay (which I had). I found a free provided you send emails 200 or less per day. I would like to know if you want the link.

  • BB of change for the smartphone blackBerry bold Verizon 9930 to another network

    Can someone tell me please a link that contains information about how to change my BB Bold 9930 brand OS to another other than Verizon's CDMA network. I'm new to the BB but have COMPUTER experience and a familiar with Android. I know there are a lot of sites with information on the release and OS unbranding inds and changing. A legitimate site exists where one might find the tools and instructions that can help the owner of a BB change its device without having to rely on a team of Technical Support of network providers who charge for a service that can be done by the owner? Sarcastic or useful comments will be greatly appreciated.

    1. it won't work on Sprint (Sprint allows on its only purchased network devices or brand for the Sprint.

    2. you can make it work on ATT and TMobile in the USA, but only at speeds of slower EDGE data. And, it is not an easy solution to operate on ATT or TMo, due to several factors, mainly including the 9930 requires books have different service from Tmobile and ATT, so it's a process of extracting the required service books and getting them on the 9930. And then it will be slow when not connected to WiFi.

    Bottom line... don't even try. The 9930 is a planned feature of CDMA network. It is very good for overseas travel occasionally and using foreign networks on GSM bands, but not for permanent use in the United States on GMS network ATT or Tmobile.
