I'm on Verizon and thinking about going from my 7T to 9 Pro.
I can get a good deal on a refurbished T-Mobile (LE2127) version.
Would I be able to convert from LE2127 firmware to LE2125 without any issues or lost connectivity?
Concerned because dinner threads say you're stuck with the T-Mo modem no matter what.

Dear Friends,
Hope everyone is well. As a side effect of having wealth of knowledge, reading through the forums here I believe the answer to my question is still, "yes" however, I would still like to confirm and make sure:
If I buy a Verizon Note 8 today, whether it's from Ebay, Swappa, Craigslist and etc and whether the user did or did NOT update to the latest Bootloader version and firmware version (Oreo)... Is it still possible to use some combination of firmware, Bootloader, CSC and etc to convert the Verizon Note to an AT&T Note or the unbranded US Note 8 and still have unrestricted, full functionality on AT&T?
If, yes, indeed, can you please point me to the right guide and files so that I can go through my purchase?
Appreciate your help in advance!
Any input, friends? Trying to buy a Note 8 based on your expert opinions ?... Thanks!
I converted my VZW note 8 to AT&T and used it flawlessly for a few months. This was before Oreo was released. I've since switched it back to VZW.
While on AT&T, volte & wifi calling worked as well.

It is always best to get the carrier brand you intend to be on....
But if you can't pass on a deal, yes you can follow switching carrier guide to turn a Verizon Note into an ATT Note....
On the one hand if you need to move between carriers or around the world, it be better to get the Verizon phone even for the AT&T network because it gives you CDMA + Quad-Band GSM. If you are going to stick with one carrier, if you get a newer phone, it will probably support 100% of their current and soon-to-be bands while the Verizon might only support 90%. That might make a difference in aggregation. Depending on the company, they might not allow you to use aggregation or VOLTE or Wi-Fi calling without their branded phone, although ajent above has had luck with at least 2 out of 3 of those by using a Verizon phone on an AT&T network.
I have a Note 10+ 5G from T-Mobile and was wondering if it would be at all possible to enable NR Band n5 for use on AT&T's low band 5G network. Because both of the devices hardware is identical would it be theoretically possible to enable that band?
maybe flashing the ATT software with ODIN, but with ATT if the IMEI# isn`t in there database as a ATT branded phone, they wont let you use the wifi calling and 5G, I just sold a oneplus 8 pro thats suppose to work with ATT 5G and I have the elite plan with 5g and it would not work, so I think if it`s not a ATT branded 5G phone you won`t get the 5G, I have the 10 plus 5g right now but its ATT one, Tmobile is more flexible with unlocked phones, I regret going back to ATT, and it will be the last time I go back to them end of the year I plan on going back to Tmobile.
I am considering purchasing the OnePlus 9 or 9 Pro. As a longtime T-Mobile customer I want to know if the International version of the phone is 100% compatible with T-Mobile. I have read on some web sites that there are frequency bands missing on the International version that are supported on the T-Mobile version. I would prefer to buy the International version because updates would come sooner. Does anyone have any information on this? Thanks!
Yes, my last 2 Global OnePlus's works great with tmobile usa including 5g...
I used 3T, 5, 6T, 7Pro and 8Pro international version with TMO sim and no issues. All works great (in my area) including 5G. (not sure about the SA band on OnePlus though, only recently updated my sim card and 5G SA works on my international S21 Ultra).
You'll have to make sure you get a model with the right bands when it comes out.
I always buy from the manufacture. The mobile cell providers always have to add their crummy annoying software tweaks.
I do not case which one as long as custom recovery and custom rom are available
I'm also a long time T-Mobile customer, and I will always buy from the manufacturer going forward. T-Mobile puts too much crapware on the phones. I also like to root and mod my device, and it's a real pain to do that on a T-Mobile device.
Been on TMo for ages. Still will alway sbuy the unlocked international version.
I just got a message on my phone saying my One Plus 9 Pro Was not compatible and due to the new changes the phone wouldnt work at all after feb 2022? Any idea as to what i can do to continue using my One PLus 9 And 9 Pro On Cricket? I went to check the imei on website and it even said not compatible yet it is making calls and volte is working?
You have to check with your carrier, we can't handle carrier problems here.
just get a new provider (or phone) before 2/22 (?)
Tranfer the number to metro att is doing updates to the signal so it wont work at all

All T-Mobile plans include 5G.

This is exactly what I did and 5G everywhere so far except tonight the tower is down
I am looking at upgrading my current phone and thinking about buying a OnePlus 9 Pro from ebay or elsewhere. And I've read the 2125 is the US/Global and the 2127 was the T-Mobile.
Assuming the phone is unlocked, is either model preferred for activation with Spectrum/Verizon or other US carriers?
Thanks,
PT
