Canadian Bell i9100m to work with Wind. - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After looking on the forums, I still can not find the solution to my problem, or if there is a solution at all.
I'm using a unlocked Bell i9100m on Wind, but i'm always designated to "Wind Away".
The threads I did find said it would work okay as a phone, but even that is not possible for me.
Any tips?

So what is the next option if you like samsung phones. Droid Charge or Galaxy S II (If it ever makes it to verizon).
If it makes u feel better its not a noob question imo jus cuz wen I bought my fascinate way back wen it came n the guy at verizon told me 4g would be backwards compatible n that I would have it wen it came out... Guess they were as informed about 4g at the time as they were bought the new froyo 2.2 w flash that was goin 2 be released at the end of that month lol.... Verizon reps suck

LOL @ this thread.
You should have had the updated pushed to your phone. I would call AT7T customer service! Don't let them off the phone till they get ICS on your phone. If they give you a bunch of crap, demand to talk with their supervisor! That or go to a local AT&T store!

You guys are killing him.
And i think that about does it for tourturing the poor fellow.

I'm on AOKP and carrier billing works fine.
Hmm, I'm assuming that there pretty much the same thing based on what you said. I wonder... I was able to get visual voice mail working but this no dice. What modem are you using?

AOKP is meshed with CM9 so they're like 99% similiar. I'm using the UCLD4 modem. Have you tried clearing the data for play store?
I'll try that now. Should I clear Google framework or is that not necessary?

Didn't seem to work. This is odd because I remember it working on my one x and that want even at&t branded. I wonder how it knows to bill to at&t or how it checks or whatever.

hmmm strange.... i would say do a full wipe/ reinstall but this isn't a software issue necessarily. i've had this happen before but i'm not sure how i had fixed it.

Back on my galaxy note I believe and that was also on cm9.

Purchased a Note 2 off Craigslist... need to Rom it but have questions

The phone has superuser on it already. I downloaded ROM manager to check the recovery and it has CWM and TWRP. Is it safe to install custom roms or is there other steps that I need to take? The baseband is vraljb.... Android version 4.1.1
Thank you in advance.

If you can boot into the custom recovery, you can flash a custom rom.

If you do an insurance job and get another phone. They don't ban your original for weeks. So he could activate it. But it's still on a list to be banned.

If its legit, then you got a killer deal. The cheapest GN2 that I've seen was $350 but it had a cracked screen. I see some for $200-250, but I am sure those are scams. The next time you buy a Verizon phone, call *611 and verify the ESN status before handing over money or trading phones. A legit seller will not mind at all.
