phone well my dad broke up with his girlfriend and she cant pay the bill for my cell phone by herself so they have to turn it off. I asked my mom if i could go back on her plan for sprint but the problem is i have a samsung blackjack from AT&T, so she thinks that they can just let me keep my phone but convert the service to sprint, I myself dont think its going to work, but that is my question, can they? and if not can i get put on her plan and get a new phone?

There was a kid from New Jersey I believe, who hacked an IPhone (AT&T) and got it under T-Mobile Service, so technically it can be done, but it's damn hard.
Try it, and if they can't do it, then ask your dad to pay for the phone. If he can't, then you have to get it shut off & there's not much more you can really do. ]
Phones designed to work on AT&T only work on their network. You can't take the phone they gave you and use it on Sprint. The smart card is programmed for AT&T service. You also can't take a Sprint phone and try to use it on an AT&T network. It doesn't work that way. To prove that have your mother call them. That's the best thing.
You should get your mother to put you on an AT&T plan that suits you and is easy to pay per month. Why waste a perfectly good phone and never be able to use it again? That's stupid to be honest. Also, your dad's girlfriend might not be able to remove you from the plan at all.
If you and her are both under contract to AT&T she's likely roped in to those terms and can't make changes. Maybe you can get your mother to talk to her. I'm sure all of this will be ironed out in the end. Patience grasshopper ;) ]
