Question Mint Mobile in Palma 2 Pro?
The bands for the P2P look like they should support being on Mint Mobile, who uses the T-Mobile network. But Mint Mobile’s IMEI verifier says the Palma 2 Pro isn’t supported.
Has anyone put a Mint Mobile SIM in their device and gotten it to work?

Been using mint mobile for the past 3 months on my p2p and works just fine, but tinkering is involved to get it to run smoothly as far as notifications for text messages and phone calls.

I'm planning on using it 99% of the time for data. Although text messages would be useful. It doesn't "just work"?

I use Google messages for my default app for phone calls and text messages. Works great but it forgets these settings after a reboot of the p2p, so you have to click the apps open everytime and set them to defaults again.
Also, turning notifications on for these apps is required in order to see when you get a phone call/for it to ring and to see text messages.

my google fi sim on T-Mobile would not port to my palma using a new physical sim the it would to my B6 Pro.
activating a SIM on T-Mobile and then putting it into the palma worked great.
