I am looking at switching to T-Mobile. My sprint service sucks in Alabama. Before I switch I wanted to test T-Mobile's prl for coverage.
So does anyone have the .prl file for T-Mobile?

Don't believe CDMA devices can operate on GSM networks unless you're possibly on a world phone. Sorry.

technically, the speed doesn't depend on network type, it should be the same on both GSM and CDMA. It depends on your cell provider limits.
Ok. Well people with GSM network providers .. what are your 3G speeds?

It would be more helpful if you gave a general location of interest... Service is not the same everywhere

im on tmobile USA. in MA, i hit around 4.8mb and in NY, its 7.6mb down.
"3G" gsm AT&T or T-Mobile is WCDMA (HSPA+ capable of up to 21mbps theroetical) Verizon and Sprint "3G" is EVDO (Theroretical up to 3mbps) you have to look at the phones radio capabilities and the network. Technically the 3G tech that GSM uses is faster than the 3G tech CDMA uses.
The phones... UGH... It depends on the service you have, your location, and how far you are from the tower... The phone dosent... Just.. Stupid ass question... Really just.. You're stupid end of story.

I just moved to Huntsville AL and my phone will not work in my house or at work. I am looking at switching to T-Mobile but I want to keep this phone.
How do I get T-Mobile to use this phone?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
you can't have your cdma 3d on tmobile.. if u want tmobile get the comparable sensation.. or if u want to keep sprint and just need service in your home call them and get a free airrave its like a mini cell tower inside your home.
If you have the Sprint Evo 3D, then it won't work with T-Mobile as T-Mobile is a GSM network, unlike Sprint, which is a CDMA network.
You would need a GSM Evo 3D, like this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-HTC-EVO...0713039770?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item35b7919b9a
My Evo 3D (model number PG86300) would work with T-Mobile, as well as with T-Mobile 3G and T-Mobile 4G, but does not work with Sprint.
Can't use the airwave since I do not have internet. I use my phone for internet. I might have to sell it. I have the 3D and a EVO shift to sell. I have to wait for sprint to cancel me for roaming 100% of the time.

Hey guys I'm going to be getting the gs3 and it had the same radio technology at the evo lte (svdo )
I wanted to know what prl your phone is using??
I haven't seen the new evo to check it out.
I live in an area where sprint only has 1x so I use the 11115 prl and roam control to get 3g. I'm hoping that there is no change in prl's for this phone.
Thanks.

Does anyone know if I purchase a Sprint HTC EVO 3D without a plan, will it work on Virgin Mobile's network? I am thinking about picking this one up:

I'm sure there is a way to do it, you would have to talk to somebody at virgin mobile first. Their evo is the exact same one on sprint so it won't be that hard. Only difference is firmware

There is a way but it involves a dummy phone and esn switching but that's illegal so stick to trying to talk to virgin mobile to get u on there system

i heard this too but their website still has metroflash even if i can go to them is it possible
easiest way to pay someone to add the MEID/ESN to their network for you, then tool around in QPST to program the settings and PRL you'll need to be on their network.
You won't get LTE/4G without a SIM, I'm not sure if that's even possible for non-Metro phones. Should be though...
I had someone flash mine to metro and I don't know how they did it, but I'm assuming he changed the MEID/ESN... Anyways, here are my 3G speeds in Sacramento
