"Eh...?"

Guest
If anybody knows about the CECT p168s phones then they know that they have a slot for two sims carRAB... well my question is if I have it half flashed to cricket, and I put a Cincinnati bell sim card in there will I be able to use both services...
 
Dude they're GSM they will work for like AT&T and T Mobile...sure...but they won't work for anything like Verizon, Cricket, Sprint or MetroPCS its CDMA. Your questions can be better answered in the GSM section of HoFo.
 
The phone can not and NEVER will work on Cricket, Verizon, Altell or any other CDMA network due to the fact its a GSM phone and will only function on a GSM network. The TWO technologies are COMPLETELY different and not compatible in any way. If you wish to use those phones, you will have to use them on AT&T, T-Mobile or some other GSM network. There is no complete, partial or any other kind of "Flash" that will work or do anything to help you put this on Cricket. Check the GSM forums here or elsewhere to see if they can help you put them on a compatible network :)

**EDIT**

PS, if you wish to use ONE phone for TWO networks and you wish to use Cricket, buy a CDMA phone from which ever network you chose to use other than Cricket, activate the phone with them, then setup Dual NAM's on the phone and program NAM2 for Cricket. Phone neeRAB to support Dual NAM's but many CDMA phones do. Just another possible option for you, but again you wont be able to use the phones you were asking about
 
that is an iphone clone he is talking about.... it is already unlocked and can work with any GSM carrier. There are other models of these Chinese phones that do support both cdma and GSM, however this is not one of them.

but hofo may b shocked to see a cdma iphone clone very soon :)
 
Wait so am I to understand that I can't use this phone for cricket at all? because this is telling me one thing Lie or Truth and you all are tellingme another which is getting very confusing considering I have already order the phone i'm getting a little frustrated
 
Dude seriously....it's a GSM cellphone...which I just looked it up...so NO it cannot be used on Cricket. It's not that hard to figure out.

GSM850/1800/1900MHz That right there tells you that's a GSM only phone...no where does it say...CDMA...you just bought a worthless phone if you're a cricket user.
 
Have you purchased it yet? Seriously, save your money. They are JUNK, absolute JUNK. If you want an iPhone, save up, and get an iPhone. It will work on CBW, and is 1000000000X better than that POS.
