How can I make my HTC Magic roam on ATT's 3G network instead of Tmobile? We don't have 3G coverage on Tmobile in my home town, but I would like to see if I could get the phone to work on ATT's network. I have rooted my phone and it's not unlocked. If I unlocked the phone could I use the Tmobile SIM card on Att? I've also tried selecting ATT's network, but it won't switch. Thanks for the help.

There is not a way to make your phone show ATT if it is in coverage range of T-Mobile plus the 3G network on att uses a differenty frequency than Tmobile does so even putting a ATT sim in an unlocked mytouch or g1 would not show 3G.
I feel your pain i am waiting for cincy to get 3G as well.
Stupid question. I noticed my Verizon note 3 has Global, LTE, and GSM radio modes. Does this mean if I unlock the sim, I can use this on say T-Mobiles network? Or how I would go about finding out which carriers it would work on? If it can work on say T-mobile, how would you get things like WIFI calling working?
Got this error message when using a TMo SIM in a Verizon G2. I've only seen one thread about this for the G2.
Verizon G2s are SIM unlocked, right? So it shouldn't be a problem? I can put the TMo SIM in a TMo branded S2 and get full bars. I even tried the same SIM in a Verizon Galaxy S3 and got full bars.
I'm on VS98012B
As a follow up, I went into available networks and this time, TMobile at AT&T show up. I tried setting it to WCDMA and GSM but it wont register on the TMobile network.
This is a location that I can normally get LTE.
The VERIZON model is GSM unlocked. Says your on 12B so you should be good. You should be able to just pop and go. I don't have much experience with it but you would have to select GSM in the Network Settings.
I got my SM-G900P phone Internationally and Domestically unlocked, and while I can get voice to work on a T-mobile sim, I am unable to get data to work.
I'm currently on the stock Sprint 5.0 rom, I have also rooted the device.
I have also added the T-mobile APN, and have the network set to T-mobile, but still no luck
I'm not sure what I should do to get the mobile data to work.
Wondering if I flash a T-mobile rom, would that brick the phone? And would that unlock the bands?
Any and all help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Thank you
bump for some help
I know Sprint operates on CDMA while T-Mobile uses GSM technology.
I don't know if the G900P has the hardware capabilities to operate on GSM LTE bands. But it is interesting that you got the voice to work!
Try this page. He had a Verizon (CDMA) phone and got it to work on the AT&T (GSM) network. So apparently it is possible, and your situation is similar in trying to use a cdma phone on a gsm network.

Thanks for the link!
I already had tried what he did previously, adding the APN, sadly that didn't work for me . And once I had unlocked the phone I enabled GSF and got the voice to work. But sadly that's the farthest I've gotten

International version rooted and unlock on 10.5
So I'm having problems with lte on my att sim card the slot #2 is running tmobile lte with no problems but the at&t will only connect to the 3g signal
Is there something Im missing I'm suppose to say when I call at&t? Already talked to someone who helped me get to this point (at first it wouldn't even connect to the internet)
