I currently own a samsung galaxy s2 from tmobile and im using simple mobile. Now i want to buy a samsung galaxy s4 but i can't seem to find out if the tmobile samsung galaxy s4 will work with simple mobile. I'm planing to buy it from best buy so i was wondering if the tmobile s4 will work with simple mobile or the unlocked s4? If anyone know any kind of s4 that will work on simple mobile can you try and find a best buy link for it??. Thank you in advance
Yes, but only the tmobile version of the S4 since it has the 1700 band for both 4G and 3G that simple mobile requires
Not sure if you will get data

I unlocked my T-mobile Galaxy S 4 and now I am trying to use it on Red Pocket mobile. For the life of me I can not get data connection to work.
So I will be curious if you are able to get data connection to work. It seems there is some type of block on this phone and I have posted this in another thread and no one has yet responded with a solution.
I thought there would be many people purchasing the T-mobile phone then using it on AT&T towers to avoid the locked bootloader on the AT&T S4 however I can't not find much information if others are having success on using it on an AT&T mnvo service.

I have a S2 I bought from T-Mobile and use Simple Mobile and want to buy a S4 from T-Mobile also. T-Mobile won't sell the S4 to me outright because I don't have a plan with them. I am going to buy the Google S4 because the first thing I would do is debrand the T-Mobile S4. I really dislike the T-Mobile on/off noises and bloatware.

So I was wondering if this worked? I use a Simple Mobile SIM in my S2 without unlocking it, and when I cut and put the SIM Card in the S4 it detects that there's a SIM card, but there's no data and I can only do "Emergency Calls Only".
So my question is, do I have to get the phone unlocked to use it on Simple Mobile?
You need to get it unlocked.
To the previous poster you can buy a T-Mobile one they just don't give you a unlock code since you are not in their service.
If you downgrade the software you can unlock easily thru a workaround bug using the dialer or can buy a unlock code online.

Hi All,
I bought the GS3 on a UK contract with t-mobile, however I immediately gave the sim to my other half, and instead chose to use my virgin sim card.
Do I still use the rooting guide stated for the GS3 t-mobile version?
(upon inserting the virgin sim the phone asked me what provider to use t-mobile or virgin...)
Help would be appreciated.
Coops
if you have a UK Galaxy S3 wouldn't that mean you have the non-US "international" version ?
In which case your phone is totally different from the one TMo is giving to us American folk... I'd ask in the 9300 forum to be honest.

Hello there, I live in France and I currently own a galaxy s3 but I really want to buy a galaxy note 2, the cheapest way for me is to buy one on pay as you go with another carrier but would I be able to unlock it on my current carrier ??
PS: I can't buy one with my current carrier because I've just upgraded for my GS3.
thanks

Try this link http://www.sammobile.com/unlock/index.php?phone=N7100, as Sammobile is a reputable site this should work. The N7100 is allready listed and it costs 15 euro`s for an unlock. I have not used it myself as i do not buy locked devices.
Please report back if you are going to use it to tell if it works, for other users
Hullo all!
So, I recently sold my Sprint Galaxy SIII to upgrade to a Note II, and decided upon the T-Mobile variant (my carrier supports T-Mobile wireless calling since they use the T-Mobile GSM network). I browsed eBay for awhile and came up with a very nice looking deal. There is a Note II for 118 dollars, but it won't boot past the Samsung logo. Curious, is there a possibility that this is a hardware issue and not software? If just software, is it fixable without too much work on my end? And, is it worth the risk?
Thanks,

You have to contact virgin mobile. Not all phones can be switched to virgin from Sprint.
Thank you
I'm working on that now, thank you for your help.
Thank you

Sorry for the long reply in advance, this is the reply I got from them.
Thank you for contacting us regarding your inquiry, we are happy to
assist.
Unfortunately, the Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III cannot be activated on
our Network. As mentioned in our previous e-mail, we started activating
devices that were previously activated with certain wireless service
providers or unlocked phones.
However, not all devices are eligible to be activated on our system. As
of the moment, only selected iPhones from AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile can
be activated on our system, but we are still working on other devices.
Below is the information for your reference:
- Verizon: iPhones 5c, 5s, 6, 6 Plus, 6s, 6s Plus and SE. iPhone 7 and 7
Plus Compatibles Models are A1660 and A1661
- AT&T: iPhones 6, 6 Plus, 6s and 6s Plus. iPhone 7 and 7 Plus
Compatibles Models are A1660 and A1661
- T-Mobile: iPhones 6, 6 Plus, 6s and 6s Plus. iPhone 7 and 7 Plus
Compatibles Models are A1660 and A1661
- Moto G5 Plus (XT1687) phone: Not wireless Carrier specific
- Samsung Galaxy S7 Special Edition (SPH-G930U) and S7 Edge Special
Edition (SM-G935U): Unlocked Device Not wireless Carrier specific.
NOTE: To activate the phones listed above with Virgin Mobile USA you
have to buy a UICC SIM card kit retail for $10 + tax. To buy a SIM card
kit visit a Sprint store or RadioShack and they will install and
activate your phone.

Wow. Sprint owns virgin mobile, lol. It's the exact same phone, model number, everything. Well, I guess they won't do it. Sorry to hear.
