Yea they can't be re-tuned. I took apart one of my Nokia 5190's here, and it has specialized filters just for the frequency they operate at: https://i.imgur.com/xUP9ZDG.jpg
On another note, I'm leaving MetroPCS, and switching to Mint Mobile. Entering my Nokia 5190's IMEI number into Mint's phone checker says it IS compatible and identified it properly as a 2G phone. So I guess we'll see if the Nokia gets to keep ticking. I'll find out maybe Tuesday, if the number ports fast enough. (I don't see why not, because they are using T-Mobile's network so technically I'd be hitting the same towers). Last edited by lnx64; 11-09-2019 at 04:25 PM. |

There's an old proverb about making sure the new bucket holds water before getting rid of the old one...Good words to live by in situations like this.

But at this point saving money was more important, so if I need to put the SIM in my smart phone, it's not entirely a deal breaker. It will suck, but Mint has the best deal in my area for services with coverage. |
