So your T-Mobile phone was locked to T-Mobile and worked without having to be carrier unlocked?
Why would it need to be unlock when MetroPCS GSM network is riding on TMO?

Lmfaooo... Not even gonna say anything
I am with Metro PCS, had a HTC ONE M7 Verizon and HTC ONE M7 T-Mobile(which I'm currently using). Both times I unlocked the phones to make it work. Just sharing experience.
Best Regards!

Hello, I've read the threads about getting 4G HSPA+ T-Mobile on the note, but will I be able to make phone calls without 4G at least? And have 2G connectivity?
Yes, once you carrier unlock it it will work for calls/2G out of the box on tmo.

My local AT&T store said they don't unlock devices. Where should I go online for a carrier unlock/can I do it for free somehow?

I finally got my T-Mobile htc one on MetroPCS on $60.00 a month account with Taxes and fees included on the same payment, I'm now saving $15.00 and I'm on T-Mobile network but on MetroPCS payment plans everything working Voice over Gsm, 4g over UMTS HSPS+, 4G LTE. With great data speeds.
But there's one flaw!!! WIFI CALLING IS NOT WORKING...

It won't work either for one of two reasons
First it works strictly thru tmobile SIM card , even tho you get tmo lte
Second the WiFi calling error means that you have to add update 911 address under your My T-Mobile account and then it works
I don't believe using a metro SIM In any tmo Device will get WiFi calling ever ,mainly cause it's alot to do with the tmo sim service the Main reachable service is still metro towers that's why .

Well I got it working today, I had to take it to Metropcs and they added my address to the 911 data base for wifi calling. It works now.

I am wanting to set this up too. Metro PCS has good service in my area but they said they're having trouble with the GSM phones connecting to their 4G LTE network. T-Mobile's voice and text work great where I'm at and my brother is on Metro with one of their CDMA phones and his service works well. I literally just got my HTC One today and so far at my house I'm only getting 'G' which I assume is 1x or Edge service correct? When I reboot the phone and it initially connects to 4G and then drops it. I'm wondering if I take it to Metro and have them put it on their network if the 4G will work better? I wouldn't think it would impact it that much though. I have 30 days to try it out before I lose out on being able to return it and I'm all about saving money so switching to Metro is a big deal to me but I need my 4G too!

I'm no longer in Metropcs CDMA or Their Ericsson LTE network. I'm now on T-Mobile Gsm and LTE network under Nokia but with Metropcs Account. 2 different networks, so that means when you where on MetroPCS cdma and LTE you where on their original lte footprint with Ericsson lte sites, tmobile is planning to unite Metropcs lte with tmobile Nokia lte. But it will take some time.

Thats kool it is something you could have done setup from phone at home in 3 minutes tho...just sayin...
Glad it worked tho.
So to sum it up your saying you get actual tmobile WiFi calling with a actual metro 4g SIM card in a tMobile device ?
Not the same WiFi calling as my metro but I mean the tmobile exclusive WiFi calling .
That's very weird that that works using a metro SIM ..cause it's suppose to be a tmo sim cars thing also that has a lot to do with how it works .

my LG Motion is on the fritz so in the market for a new phone. I'm on a budget, but i found a used LG OPTIMUS G E970 for a reasonable price & also a Pantech Discover P9090 for $40 cheaper. If i'm correct both would work with Metro, but which would be the better choice? Naturally it would be rooted
Doesn't metro use cdma? If it is a gsm network that metro uses them go for it bro

yea, they were bought out by t-mobile? so we're on their network now. i'm liking the Optimus, but if i grab it i'll have to spring for a new sim card. The discover has same sim slot as my motion though.
I just upgraded to the droid turbo and my gf is on sprint. I wanted to give her my phone, but I wasn't sure if it was possible. I was thinking I could just SIM unlock the phone and then get a micro SIM card from Sprint and simply activate it in a sprint store. Is this possible or not?

Nope. Sprint is CDMA only. No Sims.

Um.. I'm confused, sprint does use LTE correct? I've seen sprint SIM cards before. And Verizon also uses CDMA so it has the correct radios.

Yes. Sprint uses LTE, Verizon phones are SIM (GSM) unlocked, but are CDMA locked to Verizon. Even if CDMA was unlocked, it doesn't support the correct CDMA bands. And no. There is no way to hack it in.
If you can get your hands on a Sprint SIM and put it in the VZW S4 and you used NVRAM edits (extremely complicated) to enable the correct LTE bands, it would only get 4G LTE service, not 3G or Voice or SMS service.

They're both CDMA carriers and need to be provisioned so probably not.

T-Mobile and att are gsm carriers phone may work on both depending on frequencies.
Sent from my HTC0P3P7 using XDA Free mobile app
But sprint is a no go? (thank for the help guys) I know t-mobile and att are similar and Verizon and sprint are similar, but I don't understand the provisioning thing very much... I thought that was an old thing they did before it was all done thru sim cards, as I understand it now, Verizon, t mobile, and at&t assuming the phone is unlocked and has the correct frequencies available, should all be interchangeable? But sprint can't work unless the phone is a sprint exclusive due to provisioning?

Both still run on CDMA lte is for data and some voice only. CDMA I believe is still used for activation. They need to provision or "okay" phones to be used on their network.
