My wife won a new Verizon LG G4 by dropping her name in a box at a radio station promo. Unfortunately, we are on a Sprint family plan. I've unlocked, rooted and ran custom roms on my last several phones, so I'm somewhat familiar with the process, but I've never tried to move a phone to a different network. I've compared the bands/frequencies used by the 2 networks, and it seems to be compatible as far as the radio goes.
From reading this forum, it looks like we are waiting for LG to make it possible to unlock the bootloader? Then what? Just rooting, adding a recovery and loading a Sprint based ROM using a Sprint SIM card? Or will the Verizon LG G4 not ever work correctly on the Sprint network? Sorry if that's too basic of a question. Just trying to decide if I should sell/trade the Verizon phone and purchase a different phone for Sprint. I don't mind waiting a couple of months for developers to sort things out, but really just need confirmation that I'll eventually be able to use it on the Sprint network, assuming I don't brick it in the process. :cyclops:
Thanks.
