I switched from virgin mobile and activated the sim card this afternoon, and keep my old number. Now after three or four hours, my phone still can't receive any call and message. I have searched here for the problem, such as turning-on-off the public motive mobile network, turning-on-off the phone, the phone still doesn't work.
Solved! Go to Solution.

did you get the text from Virgin confirming you are porting over your line yet?
It looks like Porting is not completed. As the previous post suggested, call the porting hotline.
It happened to me. I didn't receive the confirmation text on the old provider.
Called the Port hotline and they re-trigger the porting process. Then I got the text within 5 mins and all done within 30 mins after
