I am actually wondering the same thing. My phone is a ZTE Warp Sequent which I bought a couple months ago at a local Walmart. I didn't get service on it right away because my old phone still had time on it. I did use my Warp as a tablet from the get go. I downloaded some games via the Wi-Fi, and eventually, I did get it flashed onto the Cleartalk Network. Ever since I bought this phone, it has tried- and failed to Activate, I guess to the Boost Network. It did come in a Boost Logo box. Even though I flashed it over to Cleartalk, which I love because that network is truly unlimited everything including data, my phone still tries to activate. If I'm playing a game, I get the activate screen about every 30 seconds despite hitting cancel after the first interruption. Very aggravating when all I want to do is play a game! If I'm online via my phone, its quiet in that respect, ironically enough. Now, after that long winded intro, my question is this: do I have to use Boost, or is there a way to make it stop trying to activate all the time? I really want to keep the service I have, Boost isn't as unlimited as they claim, in data, anyway. Granted, I can use my Wi-Fi for downloading, but I can do that with the service I have, too. Sorry about writing a virtual book here, but I do need any help that can be offered concerning this issue. Thanks for taking the time to read this post.
