Time for carrier breakdowns now for unlocked, T-Mobile, at&t and Verizon now since the phone is out or will be out in a couple days. Thought it would be a good idea to get down to the carrier for more precise info etc etc
I second this

So I am looking at purchasing a T-mobile s4 from a friend of mine and I was curious if after I sim unlock the phone is the phone itself compatible with Att I understand T-mobile started using Att bands just wanted to make sure before I bought the phone.

Yes, it will work.
You're actually better off getting the T-Mobile S4 as the new batch of AT&T S4s have their bootloader locked and can only achieve root, no custom recovery or ROMs.

How did you get it unlocked so fast, through T-Mobile? Just wondering, I also paid full price for mine.
Does the T-mobile Note 3 have the 850 MHz LTE band (like the ATT one does)?

I used this site http://www.unlockunit.com/
T-Mobile wouldn't give me a lock code. They said I had to wait 30 days.

I guess it does cuz I'm getting att LTE on the Tmobile note. I used cellunlocker.net and got my unlock code in about 15 minutes for 25.00.

They didn't when it was first released.
The ATT and Verison variants were updated about 2 months ago and that update locked the bootloader.
T Mobile never released that update. So the T Mobile version remains unlocked.
That's a big plus in my opinion, even if people are upset that the T Mobile version never got the updated with the apps2sd function. That was the update that locked the bootloader.
There is a new update coming to T Mobile sometime in the near future (probably) and it's unknown at this time if that update will lock the bootloader on teh T Mobile version as well.
So I know all Verizon lte phones a're unlocked now. So how can I get 4g and mms on mines. When I was using my Verizon iPhone 5 and my Verizon note 2 on metropcs they were working great. But now with my one it doesn't wanna work all I get is edge no mms. Everything else works great like sms calls voice mail etc. Would flashing something help? Please help.

I do not believe the Verizon One hardware supports metropcs (t-mobile) AWS 4g (band IV?)
Do you have edge data?

you be better of using it on tmobile if anything
which apns did you put in
Well, the Verizon one may be unlocked, so you can put almost any SIM in it and have it work, but the hardware does not support all bands of LTE and/or frequencies.

yeah found out unlocked htc one dont really support tmobile/metropcs basebands well
Could always trade someone a Verizon HTC one for a t mo HTC one. Just because it's the same phone doesn't mean it has the same internals.

Just picked up my g4. Its the sprint variant. I also have a nexus 6 which i know can be run on gsm networks as well as cdma. Is the g4 the same way. Can it be unlocked to run off my att work sim card?

Are you referring to the phone working on other bands not advertised on the phones box?
