As discussed in this thread:

http://androidforums.com/sprint-htc-hero/17053-cant-port-move-my-phone-number-my-android-phone-sprint-service-issue.html

I have two Sprint phones and want to port my standard phone account over to my Android account.

Using the *28 Conditional forwarding, I have the following options when it comes to forwarding calls from one phone to the other:

1) *28415XXXXXXX

- Turn phone off once call forwarding is activated.
- ALL calls are forwarded to Android
- It states no $0.20 for using *28, but I'm still being careful and monitoring my account online

2) Answer / Talk on HTC Hero

3) Outbound Calls - Use Google Voice until change over (see this thread)

- Use the Google Voice App on the phone, or 406-Number, to make outgoing calls for now.

(if you're not familiar with Google Voice 406, see here:

4) SMS - Text Messages (Sending)

- Use Google Voice App or 406

5) Inbound Calls

- will be forwarded by either GV or other phone via *28


"Houston, we have a problem"

6) If my other phone is off, calls will be forwarded. However, I won't receive my SMS - Text messages sent to that number.

I may have to wait until I migrate my primary phone number over to my Android phone as discussed in this thread.
