Sprint has agreed to settle a lawsuit which will require the company to Unlock their phones at a customers request, however if you do own a sprint phone you can only use it with Sprint or Verizon so no real big victory. Also the settlement won’t require Verizon activate these phones, and 9 out of 10 times Verizon won’t. So worthless settlement if you ask me.

Sprint said they settled the lawsuit in order to avoid legal fees etc, and plus so what if you unlock a Sprint phone, if you only have one other choice and that choice may or may not activate the phone on their network.

You will only get the unlock code if you do not have any default balance with Sprint. The settlement as of yet has not been approved by a court but once it is we will let you know.
