Oh goodness.. good luck with that. I was approached by VZW, offered a new Galaxy S9 to switch Carriers & told them they couldn't offer me anything I wanted. They asked me what I needed/wanted and I told them "Custom ROMs.." so I can make calls when everyone else was down. They looked confused so I tried explaining. They were totally lost so I laughed and left.. no sale today. When the hurricanes hit and took cell towers down I was the only one making calls and texts when no one else could. My family got mad and asked "WTF" and I told them about my phone & the custom ROMs.. now half my family have phones I can build customs for and update at will. The one member who switched to VZW instead, is mad at himself everyday while I was making calls/texts all day long. Also, Sprint/Boost is still holding onto the lower spectrum bands that used to be for IDEN network.. you remember Nextel having service everywhere that other carriers didn't? It's because the lower spectrum goes thru walls & materials better and Sprint is supposedly gonna repurpose that band for 5G if they don't get bought out by T-Mo..
The key to that is to do it by phone. The people in the stores are no better than a used car salesman. And that's just the truth in my opinion .
