    So I'm trying to find out solid information about this phone, and its compatibility with Boost mobile. From some people i hear that texting and the internet does not work, and from others i hear that it works the moment you put the SIM card in, and register it with boost over the phone. Lastly I hear that there is some sort of patch you have to download to get the phone to work properly with boost but there are third party application conflicts with the phone.

    help?

    by the way, first post

    Any iden phone should work with Boost's iden service, texting shouldn't be a problem, where you may find a problem is when trying to use the browser.

    Keep in mind that if you are using the CDMA side of Boost then the 7100i will not work.

    Do a ebay search for Boostberry and you find that there is a way to use 100% of Blackberry's features on the Boost Network.

    1700i works with all the network feature i do this everyday for people at this moment i have 5 1700i's setting in front of me that wrok perfect with boost text, talk, PTT and web it just tkes a little pprograms i do it everyday if you want i 17001 setup for boost i sell them for $55 and i well set yours up for $25 if you have one. People think you should just be able to plug in a sim and it work they do not want to have to do a little work. its a great blackberry and cheap at the price. and with $50 unlimited everything from boost i think everyone should have one.

    Why not do this with a 8350i instead?

    I wasn't aware that this forum had vendors. Where can I find a list of your vendors?
