Will AT&T s7 edge work for T-mobile? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Is it possible to get an AT&T S7 edge to work on t-mobile? And what steps would I take to make it work? I am kind of a noob when it comes to unlocking and flashing.

Best bet is to pay an Unlocked Company for a code or stay on AT&T service for a couple months and try to get them to give you an unlocked code.

It is my understanding that unlocking your handheld without permission from your carrier has become illegal. You could only unlock your device with your carrier's permission. In any case, I think it is still kind of early to come up with a way of unlocking the device without the device being available to the masses.
T-Mobile and Sprint to do not lock their bootloaders. AT&T only started doing it lately and it's pretty random. They did lock the S4 bootloader, so I'm expecting the N3's to be locked as well. Verizon always locks their bootloaders. There's underground pre-planning going on right now, but the devices will need to be in hand to start tinkering effectively.
I believe he means sim unlock for use on other carriers!

If I'm not mistaken, the FCC pushed for the reversal of this.
http://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/05/technology/fcc-urges-a-right-to-unlock-cellphones.html
Regardless, if I own the device, I have no problem breaking a law I feel is unjust and unlocking it. Not to mention the fact that I do not reside in the US, so the law would not apply to me. I plan on unlocking mine on day one. Either via some "special menu" which is often found or a paid service.
I may be incorrect but I did read somewhere that they were making different versions for each country and that the one version cannot be used in the other countries.

Verizon Use

T-MOBILE S7 Edge works on Verizon, ATT with unlocked Sim card! I also have LTE on All 3 Networks.
First question is how did you get your phone unlocked? I thought tmobile made you wait 45 days before they would unlock the phone

A lot of times if the phone is paid off, it'll unlock as long as it meets 1 requirement.
Sweet Verizon is super fast and coverage is virtually anywhere.

Verizon uses a lte sim card for data only. There will not be(shouldnt be anyway) any call support because the 935t does not have cdma, unless verizon is using different bands on newer devices like tmobile(band 12 - 700a)

how did you get sm-g935t to work in verizon please help me i have my s7 edge unlocked from t-mobile and i am trying to used it on verizon

will tmobile s7 work on verizon?

Just moved and tmobile service is horrible here. I have to switch to verizon. I got my tmobile s7 unlocked and have heard different feedback as to whether or not it will work with verizon. Some say yes, some no, and others have said it will but not with 3g signals.
Anyone know the truth?
I am almost positive the T-Mobile (and AT&T) versions do not have the CDMA radios enabled, and Verizon (and Sprint) need CDMA.

Well you're almost positive because you've never tried it lol which is a negative. Just flash the unlocked US firmware.
How to enable the cdma? Can I root it and flash a Verizon firmware?

you have to flash the SM-G935U over the SM-G935T. And that should take care of the problem. Just make sure that you unlock your phone via the t mobile unlock app. otherwise you wont be able to use other carriers signal.
here is a link where you can get it the SM-G935U
https://samsung-firmware.org/model/SM-G935U/
So by flashing the verizon firmware on an unlocked tmobile s7 edge, you should be able to use it on verizon?
Thanks!

Absolutely not, it will NOT work but if it was the other way around
and you wanted a verizon s7 edge phone and use an at&T or
t-mobile sim then it would work. The verizon s7 edge has a sim
slot which is not used if it's on the verizon network.
All S7 Edge Verzion phones are sim unlocked.
Good luck, have a great day!
Thank you for the help!

is there a step by step process to unlock and setup/flash/install phone completely to be able to use with Verizon?

Converting an ATT S7 Edge to Tmobile firmware

Hey everyone,
I have an ATT S7 Edge and was looking to switch to Tmobile. My S7E is unlocked with a Prepaid Tmobile sim in it now and all is working well (even VoLTE which I was shocked about). I'd like to have Tmobile software for wifi calling if it is at all possible. It seems as if VoLTE compatible so I figured the hardware was the same, just different software/basebands. I know Samsung is a nightmare with their carrier versions/locked bootloaders so I assume the chances of this being possible is unlikely, but I figured I should at least ask.
You won't be able to flash TMo firmware on your AT&T phone. Sorry.

Well.. he could at least try to flash the T-Mobile US firmware... worse it could do is fail to install, right?

I think worst case scenario is he bricks his phone.
Trade it on CL for a tmobile one.

DO NOT do that.If you do so then you can flash your framework back to ATT. I flashed my g935p with g935t framework afterward I can't go back to Sprint framework.

You can call sprint. If your phone is payed off and in good standing they will give you the iccid unlock code so you can use another sim card.

There are other methods but they cost a fee and honestly I don't know how legal they are although they do work. There was an article on xda about a week ago about an unlocking website. I forgot the link though but it costs about 10-15 dollars.
EDIT: Here is a link to the xda article https://www.xda-developers.com/benefits-carrier-unlocking/ also no prices on the site that they mentioned but I have found unlocks for the above price. I just don't trust them. I feel that is easier and safer to go through your carrier.

before purchasing ask for IMEI and contact verizon to see if they will allow a foreign ESN on their network. Verizon G6 is factory unlocked

Hello,
I'm outside of USA.
I have unlocked Sprint LG G6 using service from ebay.
For now I can use GSM sim card and make a calls. I configured APN and data turns ON and web browsing is working fine.
BUT messangers works very strange... telegram sends only text, not photos, viber not works at all....
Why? It's sprint specific setting like tunneling/proxy? How I can remove it? Any workarrounds?
I can pay if anybody can resolve this issue
