So I know T-Mobile can accept some Verizon and AT&T devices. But can I bring a VZW One Max to T-Mobile? I am currently on Sprint but switching to T-Mobile and I'm going to get the M8 but I'd like to stick with the Max for sure. Any one know anything about this?

I'm using simple mobile and they use tmobile towers /signal's and even tried Lte and it worked great
I have viewed the video explaining the process to get the VZW Max onto T-Mobile. Can the Sprint Max be sim unlocked and taken over to T-Mobile also? If so, what ROM is the one to use?

Wondering if this will work on T-mobile and if so how easy it is to unlock. Thanks!

Yes, if you unlock the sim then you can use it but it will only be 2G/EDGE speeds, NOT 3G.
Depending on how you acquired the phone there a couple ways to unlock it, either by calling AT&T (if you have someone who has been a longstanding customer do it) or you can buy an unlock code online.

Well that sucks...
ATT and t-mobile use different frequencies for their 3G/4G networks, so it will only use the frequencies they share in the 2G/EDGE range. I think that is a physical restriction and not something that can be fixed with a radio flash.

The Droid DNA is for Verizon Right? I dont belive this combination will work, as Verizon is CDMA and I belive Strait TALK IS gsm
It will work. The DNA is a global phone.

You wont get 4g though. You might get hspa+, maybe. However you will be getting screwed over because straight talks's gsm coverage is inferior to their cdma coverage.
I was just gonna start a thread on this topic. I'm using straight talk on my DNA right now. I get hspa+ or "at&t" 4g speeds. I was just talking with a Wal-Mart rep who told me, that 3 straight talk users here In Montana were terminated from straight talk because the SIM runs on AT&T network. In the fine print supposedly it's only supposed to use sprint, and Verizon networks. I guess AT&T caught these users using their towers.
I'm a little scared of getting terminated myself. But I don't want to pay Verizon high ass prices! I guess that new law will affect us after all.

Define "screwed".
AT&T's 3G is faster than Verizon's. You can't use Straight Talk Verizon with your own phone either.

iv been using straight talk sim on a verizon droid dna for awhile now and everthing seems to work fine even the h+ speeds. seeing that it is a global phone you just have to create a new apn via straight talk change the network mode and your done

I think they meant on the CDMA side of straight talk vs the gsm side.

Since I've bin back using my HTC DNA I've bin with ultra.me which is in new york, so far no problem. Honestly if you yourself has an account with them I wouldn't worry. But for myself I keep hearing about METRO PCS about unlocked phones & up too $100 REBATE , I think I might check that out. The subject of the story is that if you have a phone you like make sure it's unlocked & go to whoever you feel comfortable with bottom line!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Walk through please?
To any of the posters that have the dna running on straight talk, I'd love a walk through on what needs to be done to get this to work. I'm giving my boyfriend my old dna, and he has straight talk service currently. He's really excited to get a phone that's a lot better than the one he's been using for the last three years, and I really want to pull this off for him but Im not sure what exactly I need to do. All help is appreciated... Thanks!
I think you just set the phone to global mode for gsm networks of on stock. If using a custom Rom, just download the gsm version.

Service is good as it runs on at&t. HSPA speeds can vary from 2-8 MB so for $45 a month you can't go wrong. If he uses a sense based ROM he will probably have to manually edit his APN which the Straight Talk website covers in detail. If its a stock android ROM for me it automatically configured my APN. I just put my ST Sim in the phone.
im using att
do any one knows how to connect it on cdma instead of gsm att or tmobile?
Flash HTC DNA to CDMA Straighttalk

Answer to this question is yes, The HTC DNA Verizon is CDMA Capable as well as Global GSM. I had My HTC DNA Flashed to Verizon side of Straighttalk about 8 months ago, around thanksgivin. It is on the verizon side of striaghttlak, I get FAST 3G speeds, no 4g but I can live with that for $45 A month. Im not sure how or the policy of sharing links on this website/forum but here is the place who flashed my HTC DNA, And they also flashed 2 other model phones for me as well, they had pretty fair prices also...
The phone # to text to get this done is 231 327 2601 they have a website also but I cannot remember the link or name.
I know the specs show that it has AT&T LTE bands, but had anybody actually used it on AT&T LTE yet? If so, please report your impressions.
Thanks.

I'm confused why so many people are worried about unlocking and band compatibility. Get the one from your own carrier !

Works exactly the same for me using an AT&T SIM in the T-Mobile HTC one. The other way around, I get less HSPA+ service using an AT&T SIM in a T-Mobile HTC One.

No. The AT&T one doesn't fully support T-Mobile while the T-Mobile one fully supports BOTH T-Mobile and AT&T.
For people who don't want CDMA-based service, the T-Mobile version is the best one to buy for compatibility.

Are you sure about that, Maybe the AT&T version needs to be unlocked for it to work on T-Mobile's HSPA+ Network. I hope like hell it does because I would like to have the 64gb version working on my Network of choice, T-Mobile of course.

This has been discussed to death on the boards.
All the phones have the same internal radio hardware but what's been flashed to each device is different.
i got a att version unlock, big mistake for tmobile. i flashed tmobile rom and radio. alot of places in new york i get 2G which it was constant 4G with my note 2. Place where i get 4G i only get 7mbps. while with my note 2 i was able to get up to 18mbps. Order the tmobile version will return this one. The only reason i bought this is because they had it locally in ATT store while tmobile htc one is on backorder and not avail in any store.
Unfortunately Samsung doesn't just make the same model for both I would imagine it would save them money also but att phones work slow on T-Mobile but other way around your golden

I am looking to sign up with Wind Mobile and get the HTC One, they recently just got it.
I could not find a Wind Mobile specified forum for the HTC One, is the T-Mobile HTC One technically the same as Wind's?
Need clarification before signing up, currently using a ATT S3
Most gsm phones are the same AT&T and T-Mobile asd long as it's not cdma like sprint or Verizon you will be okay I have T-Mobile version but use HTC One forums is kinda dead here to be honest

They said most TMobile phones, you can use on WIND. I'm pretty sure you can use it on WIND cause they use the same spectrum.

T-mobile HTC one works with Wind, you just need to unlock it. T-mobile has 60 days policy before you can unlock your phone. I'm on Wind using T-mobile HTC one.
Wind also just released their own AWS band HTC one

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.

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.
