I always thought that SIM cards and CDMA were mutually exclusive, but the M9 CDMA variant (0PJA2) has a SIM card.
Does this SIM card allow me to switch to to other carriers than sprint? Or is the fact that my phone is the 0PJA2 variant locking me to use only Sprint (and maybe Verizon) CDMA?
I didn't realize this question was so advanced, I'm sorry.

My girlfriend bought a T-mobile HTC radar off craigslist and It wouldn't read a T-mobile sim card. Which I though was weird. So I bought a unlocked code and unlocked it with my AT&T sim card. The phone will work with the AT&T sim card but not with a t-mobile sim card. I've try a contract and pre-paid T-mobile sim and nothing. I went to T-mobile and got a brand new sim card and still nothing. Like I said if I put my AT&T sim in the phone it work fine. Can some one please help me to get this phone to read a t-mobile sim. I though once you unlocked it you could use any carrier that use a sim card.
you'll have to call t-mobile to activate it with the sim card

I don't think so. I regularly bounce between T-Mobile and AT&T with all my unlocked phones. The only limiting factor is the radio and the data bands that it receives. And, of course the Radar was made for T-Mo. Mine has always been great there.
Now, there are two versions of the phone. The US version is simply called the Radar and can use either T-Mobile or AT&T's networks. The international version is model C110E and called either the Radar or the Omega. It will work on AT&T, but it does not have the T-Mobile bands. It is made for data networks in Europe and it additional bands for Asia. The antenna configuration is different in the two phones.
Does your Radar say "T-Mobile" in the top right corner? Is it possible that you have the C110E?
I got a unlocked code and it works on my at&t sim card but not a T-Mobile one. I've try contact and prepaid sim cards. Nothing! I got a new sim card and nothing! It a T-Mobile HTC radar. It should work on T-Mobile but it don't. A Friend of mine said T-Mobile has lock the phone from there end. I got the unlocked code and it works with at&t sim but not T-Mobile. I don't like the windows one. I've unlocked 3 mytouch, 4 SGII and a galaxy note. This has been a pain in the ass from day one. If u think of a idea let me know it won't hurt.

Maybe the IMEI has been blocked by Tmo? Call and find out.
Will the Verizon GS3 have a removable sim card?
The Sprint SG3 has the sim embedded in the phone (white on left)
If I cant change the sim card this may be a deal breaker for me.
Anyone?
Um does it matter?? VZW usually only use the sim card slot for the 4G LTE sim
If your asking will the GS3 be international on verzion than I don't know

Yes it will be international by the summer with an update. So I think that the one sim card will work all the radios (LTE, CDMA & GSM)
hi, Could some one explain me what does LTE unlocked sim free phone mean. Is it something like an unlocked phone? Can i use a Gsm sim in this?
Yes, you can use a GSM SIM in it. It's unlcocked.
Read it this way:
LTE, unlocked, sim free phone ...
LTE -- capable of using the fastest wireless data network, and it also supports the slower networks (like GSM)
unlocked -- it is not forces to use a particular carrier, like Rogers or AT&T
sim free -- the phone does not come with a sim card (that is for a particular carrier) and you have to purchase one to use the phone, the AT&T phones come with an AT&T sim
I heard the droid DNA comes gsm unlocked when you buy it from Verizon. I bought my droid DNA from Verizon. If I were to take out my sim card would it be sim unlocked and would be be able to put in a sprint sim card. Or can someone provide with a download that let's me CDMA unlock it.
It comes unlocked indeed. But I believe for gsm I tested and confirmed with at&t sim card and straight talk sim as well

So I can take out my sim card and put in a sprint or virgin mobile sim card and it would work? I already know its gsm unlocked
Yes it will work with ANY gsm carrier. Not sure about cdma carriers such as sprint and virgin.
I've read somewhere that the two LTE networks are compatible, but I cannot get the Verizon sim card to work on an AT&T phone.

This happens because Verizon is a cdma network, at&t is a gsm one, verizon uses lte only for data, and the at&t phone doesn't have cdma hardware
