Can i use a boost sim card in a nextel phones?

you may try some default codes........

you dont have to do anything at all. Just put your sim card in and go. I580 or any other motorola IDEN phone will only work on IDEN networks like (boost,nextel,mike,telus) It will never work for any other carriers no matter what you do.

You will need contact Telus to get the subsidy unlock code to use your phone on the boost mobile network.

Remove the battery from the phone. Let it remain out of the phone for 10 minutes with the phone off. Replace the battery and turn the phone on.

This is a problem with the phone trying to read the SIM card after being in another phone. Be patient. It may take several minutes for the phone to read the SIM.

you either have to do a factory reset on the phone or the previous owner of the phone (assuming there was one) has to release the phone or request a bill by calling nextel

I called Boost support about the same issue and I was told that that particular phone and any other Ic series phone by motorola will not work with Boost Mobile. There was also a few other phones that will not work. Try calling thier support line and requesting the list of phones that won't work. Good luck.

boost only uses boost sim cards
you cant put in a nextel sim in a boost phone
call customer service
