    Not possible, Nextel uses iden technology, Sprint uses CDMA.

    Unlocking the phone is mainly used with GSM phones to be used with any service provider that uses that same technology, i.e. GSM.

    In this case the only other service you could use with your 8350i is Boost., but if you wanted to use a Boost phone on Nextel's network than you would need to unlock it.

    Again, the 8350i is not a GSM device, therefore no need to unlock it, even if you want to used it with Boost, same network.
