In the late 90s my whole 8th grade class took a trip to Big Bend and we all stayed right on the border in Lajitas where there was a goat that drank beer. At night we'd sprint down to the river and cross into Mexico simpl - @13thwhisper.bsky.social 10 Nov, 12:30 AM PKT

Is Sprint Down Right Now?
Sprint as a brand no longer exists. T-Mobile bought Sprint and shut down its network, so former Sprint customers now run on T-Mobile. If your old Sprint phone stopped working, that is the merger shutdown, not a temporary Sprint outage. Check the live Sprint status indicator at the top of this page, but know the brand itself is retired.
The shutdown caused real pain. T-Mobile turned off Sprint legacy 5G network only about a year after it launched, leaving roughly 75,000 Sprint 5G phones unable to get a 5G signal. Owners of phones like the Galaxy S10 5G and LG V50 found themselves capped at 4G speeds. Venue hotspots cap people differently, and an SPT portal that never appears leaves every guest offline at once.
Is Sprint Down for Me or Everyone?
If you never migrated, your service is gone for good. Sprint SIM cards and plans stopped working as the network was decommissioned. Anyone still on Sprint branding needs to move to T-Mobile or another carrier.
Why Did My Sprint Phone Stop Working?
Network shutdowns killed older devices in stages. Sprint 3G towers went dark, then the legacy 5G network followed. Phones that only spoke Sprint network frequencies lost signal permanently. Only certain models, like the Galaxy S20 5G, received updates to work on T-Mobile mid-band spectrum.
A class action lawsuit alleged T-Mobile never properly warned customers that their 5G phones would become useless well before the end of their expected life. Many owners had to buy new phones at their own expense.
What Happened to My Sprint Account?
Accounts migrated to T-Mobile systems. Bills, plans, and phone numbers moved over, but the transition was messy. Some customers reported broken online account access and confusing plan changes during the migration period.
If you are still being billed under Sprint branding years later, contact T-Mobile to confirm your account migrated correctly. Old Sprint account portals no longer work.
Why Are My Bills Higher After the Merger?
T-Mobile raised rates on old plans after the merger, including plans once marketed as guaranteed for life. Critics say the merger cut the US market from four carriers to three and ended real price competition. If your bill jumped, review your current plan against new offerings.
Common Sprint Problems and Fixes
Phone Has No Signal
Your device may only support dead Sprint frequencies. You need a T-Mobile compatible phone. Check compatibility before buying.
5G Stopped Working
Sprint legacy 5G was shut down. Only updated models get T-Mobile 5G. Older 5G phones are limited to 4G LTE.
Cannot Log Into Old Account
Sprint portals are retired. Log in through T-Mobile with your migrated credentials.
Bill Looks Wrong
Compare your plan details in the T-Mobile account portal. Contact support about unexpected increases.
Texts or Calls Fail
If you are on T-Mobile now and still have trouble, the issue is with your current carrier, not Sprint.
