Thanks!

Yes you can. I used to have simple mobile and used a t mobile locked phone.
Cost of a new s3 on the street ? Hmm 16 gb probably around 450-500$ ?

I'm considering a locked t-mo for $535
Do you know what it would take to carrier unlock so I could root?

I think you can find it for cheaper than that if you put more search effort in.
You don't need to gave it GSM unlocked to root.. u can root it either way.

I'll get to work on it

Has anybody been able to get their T-Mobile S3 working on SIMPLE MOBILE's network (3g/4g)? I've rooted my phone, and I can't access it (I can't even delete the T-Mobile APN Setting).
Let me know, I would greatly appreciate the help, and I'm sure other users would benefit from this information also. Thanks.

You need to setup a new apn. Go to simple mobiles web site they have instructions to get you up and running.

questions about S3
hi guys
I am a newbie here and I am loving S3 so far and I would like to get simple mobile service with it.
I have a few questions hope you guys can please help me out:
1. on simple mobile web, they sell S3 but says it's not approval and not support 3G, but I saw someone replied it would work 3g/4g with simple mobile service, can you please let me know so i should get $50/month plan instead of $40/month plan or either way is fine?
2, do I have to get a unlocked S3 in order to work with simple mobile service? or I can just buy it from costco or ebay and just insert a simcard i bought from ebay with simple mobile as well? or it has to be unlocked S3 & special sim card?
hope you guys can help me with these, thank you so much

It will work with 3g or 4g. If u get the 40 dollar plan you will get thr 3g speed. If u get the 40 dollar plan u will get the 4g speed. Everything is listed in black and white on simple site. Any tmobile phone will work with simple mobile without unlocking. Simple Mobile is mvno of Tmobile.

[Q] Questions about unlocking and more.

I have an iPhone 5 and I'm on AT&T and have it up for trade.
Someone has a tmobile note 2 and wants to trade
He said he can get them both unlocked. And the tmobile will work fine
On AT&T.
My questions are will it work and if I want to flash custom Roms will this mess up the unlocking?
I have searched all over and can't tell some people say everything but LTE works and some say not.
It's confusing. I need the phone to work on AT&T and not have to worry about messing up the unlock.

It should still be unlocked but you should get the code just in case.

Once it's unlocked, it's unlocked.

Just make sure that note is fully paid for or you may end up with blacklisted phone

I would just say, not sure specifics but who in the right frame of mind would trade away a GNII for an I phone 5... just sounds 2 good to be true, especially with all the horror stories out there...

Unlocked tmo note 2 with att sim card is not worth it. You will not get att lte service or gps. My cousin had a tmo GNote2 with att sim and it drove him crazy note having lte and gps. No fix around it, find urself an att GNote2. Best of luck

[Q] tmobile note 2 on at&t's lte

Im looking to trade my iphone for a note 2 and i want to know if the tmobile note 2 will be able to use at&ts lte since im still in contract with at&t

You would have to unlock it first and I'm pretty sure it would only work on HSPA+

At&t S3

I have a question I'll be buying a At&t S3 from someone on Friday it's not unlocked but I'll be unlocking it for tmobile cause that's what I use currently. So the question is once I unlock it and root it do I use tmobile S3 roms or do I use the AT&T custom roms ?

AT&T roms only. Your hardware is still AT&T so your software should be AT&T.
If you use a rom for another phone company's phone, you risk the chance of bricking.

Q's go in Q&A.
And you can use either AT&T or TMO. Both will work fine.

Can the unlocked T-mobile Note 4 be used on Verizon network and be able to get LTE ?

If I have an unlocked T-mobile Note 4, will I be able to use it on Verizon network and also get LTE speed?

The T-Mobile model doesn't support CDMA as far as I'm aware, so no.

That is too bad. I thought that if the iPhone 6 that is bought from the Apple store can be used on all carriers, then the latest Note 4 would have all the frequencies to be used on all networks.

I'd say it would as the snapdragon processor is the modem and this is the same across all the us version phones. As far as settings go it may be a bit involved or super simple.

Do a local trade for the vzw version.

One sec. I'll get a link.
Edit: Well it seems to be gone now... Some guy in another thread mentioned getting his price matched with Best Buy for $600 as well for it. Weird.
