We've all read about the things Verizon took out of the note 7. If I bought a different version if the phone, like sprint or tmobile, will it work with Verizon sim? Will I still be able to get updates?

Can this be done? I currently have Verizon, and a Verizon Note 3. Unfortunately, we can't get aosp because of the locked bootloader, which so far hasn't been unlocked, that's if it will ever get unlocked. So I was considering trading my Verizon Note 3 for a T-Mobile note 3 if it will work on Verizon's network. Sorry if this had already been answered.
Thank you
No tmobile note 3 is GSM where Verizon uses CDMA cellular technology. Two different frequencies.
I understand that, I just thought since they use a SIM card it make work lol
In a word, no.
I bought a used Verizon Note 3 and the shop I bought it from set it up to run on Tmobile ... I would like to try a Tmobile ROM and want to know if that will cause any conflicts with my service from Tmobile. I don't care about wifi calling, if that makes any difference ...
All responses appreciated!
Not possible to install TMO Note 3 roms on a Verizon Note 3, as long as your Verizon Note 3 has LOCKED BOOTLOADER. I don't think there's a way to unlock it. Bad Verizon, Bad ATT, pure evilness.

I think you can get around it with Side Strap. That's what I have on my rooted Verizon Note 3.
Buddy just gave me a Note 3 for TMo being without a phone for a few weeks after breaking my N4. Well this phone work on VZW network if unlocked? Very comfortable with phones, and willing to put in effort if required beyond unlocking.
Does Verizon use cdma which I don't believe the note 3 will support?
I know they are two diffrent networks with CDMA & GSM. Some phones now cover both. I've read the note 4 was working like this. I'm curious of a couple things.
1. Is it really possible? To go from at&t to verizon with a note wdge.
2. If so, could you flash a verizon rom onto the at&t note edge to have all the verizon stuff?
Well I haven't been looking into this
But from first-hand experience, if you do
Only talk and text messages will work
Anything data-based will not work as the AT&T Note Edge does not have the correct radios to actually get data
You need the CDMA radios to actually use data
and secondly, the AT&T Note Edge (Same with the Note 4) has been bootloader locked since the release of the phone
Meaning the AT&T Note Edge cannot be modified system-wise
We are still trying to get stable temp-root
Not a good sight
And the Verizon Note 4 (Edge as well) have been bootloader unlocked since April of last year
Meaning customization level is higher than the AT&T variant
Now thing is, the Verizon variant is bootloader locked by default
and you need to have a good amount of knowledge of ADB to actually unlock it
and a lot of patience
but the community is there to help you out with any of your questions
As long as the phone has the Samsung eMMC
So why bother with the AT&T variant and just go get the Verizon variant
Bootloader unlocked, and correct radios
Seems like a plus to me
and the Verizon variant has GSM radios so it can work with AT&T and T-Mobile, and yes
It is unlocked by default so you don't need to contact Verizon to unlock the phone

All you need is to first of all
Find the APN settings for your specific carrier
After you do, place the SIM card in and then go to the settings, Mobile Networks, APN settings, and then set it up how it is intended to be
Way back in the nexus days, carriers would sell different branded nexus phones(Nexus 6) that they would claim only worked on their network but infact, once sim unlocked would work for all networks like the non carrier version. So you could buy Nexus 6 from Verizon and then put a T-Mobile sim in and get 4G LTE, etc and have no issues. My question is this, if I bought a pixel 6 pro from Verizon and got it sim unlocked, does it have the same bands/frequencies of the factory unlocked variant to use T-Mobile 5g, LTE?
Can't unlock the bootloader on Verizon so your best bet would be either from Google or other network
