[Q] Help with switching carriers... - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I did some searching, but couldn't find a definate answer. Also, I only have an hour to figure this out, or else I will have to wait at least 3 days, which I do NOT want to do. Any help is very much appreciated...
I have been without a phone for waaaaay too long. I have decided to go with Straight Talk wireless (no contract). I have a few questions:
Is it possible to use my Fascinate on the Straight Talk network?
If so, how difficult would this be? Some time ago, I was knowledgable enough to put a custom ROM on it.
If I were to order a free phone online, it would be possible to switch it over to my verizon fascinate, and give the free phone to a family member, correct??
If someone could provide me with the steps needed to get my phone straight-talk ready, that would be a huge help. Or provide me with any links that explain the process.
Thanks so much, and once again, sorry if this is common knowledge to most folks, but I reallly need to make a decision asap.
Thanks in advance...

No help??
It is the i1500 version, if that helps...
Thanks for any help!!!

Quick question about flashing TP back to Sprint

Hey whats up fellow TP users. I got a quick question.
I have an Sprint TP, that i flashed to use with MetroPCS. I want to sell it, and i have a buyer, who has Sprint. My question is, To get it back to sprints service, all i have to do is install a sprint stock Rom correct? and that will do the job? or are there other steps and things i need to do. I just need to get the phone working back with sprint again.
Thanks for your time.
Also on a side note, i was thinking of getting a Palm pre, i heard you can flash those to MetroPCS, but i didnt see it anywhere on here, and even on PalmPre forums, i didnt see a step by step or any tutorials.
Any help would be aprreciated. I am selling this in the next 30-40 mins, so please, don't bash. I need quick answers.
Once again thanks.
No one can help me? 11 views, and not a single comment? I just need help understanding this all. Damn its like that.
really? No one wants or can help me? I find that hard to believe with this many talented people on this forum. Thanks for nothing.

[HELP] How to unroot Samsung Galaxy S3? Help needed. Help will be rewarded.

Hi, I'm new to these forums.
I recently purchased my S3 and thought it would be a good idea to root it and install a custom ROM. After using it for a few days I decided I didn't want it and wanted to return back. I realised that this will be tough for me with my little knowledge. Basically all I want is help on how to unroot my device back to the way it came first out of the box. I'm not worried about losing anything on the phone. If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated and I may give a reward. Please ask a many questions as you want.
Many thanks.

Hi. I have been a long time iphone person, since the first one. I decided to switch and got an S6 edge. I love it. However i need some fundamentals please. Is there a thread or link someone can share please or just help me here. I need to know everything. I was able to root my device and figure out some basics but id like to know more. Such as why put a custom rom on my phone, what exactly is a custom rom, how to get into certain modes on my phone and why/what they are mean, whats a bootloader and what does it do. What can be formatted what cannot. I could go on but i hope everyone understands what i mean. Also im not asking for someone to do the work for me i just need to know what to read and whats what of what. Thank you.
Many of your questions are answered in these few threads.
The last one explains how to unroot in case you want to.
I also am sharing a few apks I found helpful when I first used Android.

[Request(if possible?] Samsung Galaxy Luna SM-120VL

I have recently purchased my daughter this phone to use for Pokemon Go...since she is only 9 she cannot go walking around too far to play this game..SOOO i am in need of 2 things if at all possible.
1. A rooted stock ROM for this Phone(SuperSU rooted works the best and easiest)
2. A Stock ROM for the phone(Just an exact replica of the ROM that is pre-installed when you first buy the phone, or can remove all the garbage excess stuff if would like? )
I do not have loads of cash but if someone can help me i wouldn't mind donating to them to get this done? Just let me know if someone has these files already(i already have Odin to do the flashing and i know how to do it already, just need these 2 files ) OR if someone would do this for me(for my daughter actually haha) like i said, i would gladly donate to them if they prefer. just whatever it takes
Thanks for the time and for reading my post!
Anyone at all willing to help? or tell me how to make a copy of the phone myself?
Still no answer? is it ok to bump threads like once a week so people can see the thread often? i am desperately needing to find someone to help me. My daughter keeps asking about this and i have to keep telling her i am working on it. I've tried researching how to do it myself...but uhhh it gets kinda confusing and last thing i wanna do is mess the phone up lol. So, if anyone can please help me i'd GREATLY appreciate it! If cannot send the files themselves...if someone could guide me exactly as to how to manage doing it by myself maybe? Thanks guys!
I am afraid to say this is not possible so far I know. A Friend as ask me to unlock his phone, but no success. I think I gonna suggest to sell it in eBay and get another phone which is possible to unlock (and not from Verizon).

How to know if someone used my phone

Hello,
I'm new here, I'm in a very bad up situation where I have to see if someone picked up my phone without my permission.
I'm depressed for 3 days now and I really need help with this.
I saw people using this code: *#*#4636#*#*
But I've learned that Samsung for some reason turned off this function and it's not working.
I want something similar, some method to see some sort of report of my apps usage in the past 4 days.
I can follow any instructions, even if I have to root my phone. By the way I have Kitkat 4.4.4.
Please guys help me out with this! Any experts?
I really really need it! Anything to just know if someone used my phone at a particular time, just 3 days ago.
At that time I didn't use my phone, so it will be easy for me to know.
I'll be so grateful!! Thank you.
