Ipad 2 CDMA and Blink on the Go

[paparazzi]

Does anyone know how or point me to someone who knows how to set up the Ipad 2 CDMA on Blink on the Go (which is Rev A) so its compatible with the Ipad 2 CDMA.

Their foreign tech support is useless, guys keeps telling my to "connect the Blink on the Go to the USB port on Ipad 2"....

CDMA does not work in Trinidad....we use GSM...
You may have to use wifi....
wait..

GSM is the mainstream but TSTT also has CDMA.

Blink on the Go uses CDMA Rev A. Ipad 2 ought to be compatible.

dat is why meh put de 'WAIT'

Called them about this already and remember unlike the GSM ipad 2 the CDMA one is only flashed to work with Verizon, the verizon ipad2 is compatible here while roaming so technically it should be possible for it to work but you need all the codes to flash it and a compatible plan from the carrier (Blink) to make it work, I'm not sure if anyone has flashed an cdma iPad 2 with another carrier yet I haven't read about it anywhere.

perhaps you can try to find a compatible portable USB CDMA Evdo rev a. -> wifi router (like the MiFi or Cradlepoint devices)

of course finding out if it works with that particular adapter/firmware is the fun part, the $180usd is the not so fun part, there are other though

so basically,could still use a CDMA phone and clone someone else's # , then run up their bill

not exactly, each cdma phone has an esn number attached to it and the user account, the CDMA network here is data only for residents although if you are a Verizon customer roaming with a CDMA device you will be able to use the data and voice capabilities of the network.

So it is not possible to clone someone's ESN as it would register on the system as bad and even if you did it wouldn't have anyone's to clone that has a phone number attached to the ESN

this looks like a pretty practical work around since Blink doesn't offer personal hotspot devices, do you know if any of their usb modems are compatible with this?

i understand ..oo well i wonder if the iPad2 can work with Bmobile EDGE?

Thanks, nice find there! This could be a fall back option.

You are partially right. TSTT has a Voice CDMA Network (Roamers only) and a EVDO Rev A Network.

You may need to take into TSTT to get them to try to provision it. However, I doubt this will work.....CDMA/EVDO devices are usually locked to a Network. TSTT or Apple will have to try to unlock it.

[M_2NR]

They "unlocked" the veriPhone (unlock not released to public i think) to work on another network. However the iPad 2 CDMA one, never read of it yet.

I just wish we could get iDevices here, legit with an apple store etc

[benko]

the new "My Spot" service that is being launched may address this very soon, asfik the CDMA ipad2 is not network locked however CDMA services tend to be network provisioned to a device so workarounds in that would typically involve alot of hacking and spoofing plus actually knowing the configuration to bind it eg via some sort of firmware emulation, in short it is highly unlikely to work without some assistance from the network provider

Well plug de dongle into the ipad usb port!!

Seriously though, are you trying to get the ipad on the cdma network and use the dongle's account, essentially tossing the dongle out of the picture?

If so, then no dice. I had a cisco router with adsl capability and wanted to take the blink modem out of the picuture. I setup everything correct and kept getting an auth failure.
When I called blink and ask them whats up, they said that my router won't work because they only allow blink modems to "dial in". They do it by macs. This was weird because I know their 1st gen dsl allowed anything to connect with the right creds. I ask him if he could put my router mac on there and let me use it, he said no. I asked why and got a " I dunno nah, the answer is no" I said fk it and kept the modem with it's crappy firewall.

So if that's what you wanna do i'm guessing the same goes for blink on the go.

[Smokey]

Well the only other option is to use the new Blink on the go WIMAX to WIFI Hotspot.

It's sort of a hack unelagent solution as:
1. It's a separate device you need to remember to bring
2. You need to remember to charge it
3. Coverage is still pretty limited

time for blink on the go to go and at least give us something worth the money and with the speed

regarding the CDMA embedded iPad device, i don't believe it should be a problem... You just need someone in TSTT who know what they doing to provision the device.

About 2 years ago i acquired a Lenovo laptop which had an embedded EVDO chipset... TSTT's personnel were contacted, and were successful in provisioning the laptop on their evdo system.

you're lucky but I somehow think that they would not provision and officially spoof their codes onto an iPad 2. I'm sure there is some contract somewhere that would hamper them from doing so because Verizon is the only authorized carrier of the CDMA iPad 2 yet.

blink on the go TURBO? it supposed to give up to 2mb/s and its unlimited data- uses both wimax (4g) and cdma (3g)

that's a disgrace to the idea of 4G, it's unlimited data while used accordingly to the Fair Usage policy, which basically says your speeds are ridiculously throttled down after you use more than 4 GB in a day and you are throttled down for 3 days afterwards too, it's all on the blink site but where they have it it's not really out in front for everyone to see

I posted this on 3 threads that were relevant to the topic and I FORGOT I had posted it here before. SORRY.

Dat thread is yuh website awa??

from what i understand that 4gb limit only applies to peak hrs- like say 6-11pm-so u are limited to dl 4gb during that time, outside of peak hrs its unlimited- but its no different from wired blink which has the same policy

When I called they said that they throttled it down regardless of the time because they didn't want you hogging the bandwidth, seems like a fair policy to me but they should make it more known and I know they probably save money by doing so, but do they really have to outsource their tech support now? come on they barely understand our accents smh

Can you use CDMA boost mobile phones on a sprint contract? Boost mobile now sells a CDMA series of phones. I was wondering if these would work on my sprint contract.
