Hi all. Just wondering if the Inspire can be unlocked and ran using a T-Mobile USA SIM card and if it'll work? Will it be limited?

It'll be EDGE only. No 3G or 4G. T-mo and AT&T use different frequencies.
Just get the Nexus S. Inspire is a great phone but so is the NS

Yep I put my friends t mobile sim card in my insprie which is unlocked. It works great. You just get 2g and voice.
Precisely the answer I thought I'd get. Thanks!
I don't know if I am putting this in the right place but I have a motorola backflip (temp phone, using a samsung infuse now) and I am wondering how can I unlock it so it can be used with another network? Like T-Mobile because I really want to give it to a friend of mine who is in need of a cell phone but she is on T-Mobile. My Backflip is rooted, and running cyanogen mod 7.1... so with all that done im wondering what can I flash to the device to allow it to work with a T-Mobile sim card?

I have just gotten a Droid Incredible, which I thought it was unlocked and able to be used on the T-Mobile network. I noticed there was no place to put a SIM card....is there a way for me to Flash this phone to the tmobile network so I can use it or am I stuck? Thank you so much for any help you can give me.....

Sorry,you are stuck. The original Droid incredible is cdma,and not useable on t mobiles GSM network.

So I bought a used T-Mobile Sensation 4G. I have 2 sim cards- a prepaid T-Mobile for cellular and an AT&T data sim (from the Tablet that I sold). The T-Mobile card has worked perfectly (for phone calls). I put the AT&T card in today for the first time and the phone was locked and asked for the pin.
I am running Revolution 6.6.1, Sense 3.6, ICS 4.0.3.
Can somebody tell me what the problem might be? I know the data plan from AT&T is meant only for tablets... is that the issue?
I ask because I am taking the phone with me to Europe in a couple weeks and want to make sure it's ready so that I can pop a sim card in and be ready to go when I arrive.
Your not unlocked bro do it again but art you won't get 3g fyi only edge but still works

Thanks, Craven. That was it.
Okay so I bought a AT&T htc one x. I rooted the phone. Unlocked the boot loader. Now on rebel rom. I put my tmobile SIM card in the phone and it gives me no reception. At all. And says no service. I went to the settings and mobile data, than did network operators. Did select automatically. And says "unable to connect to network at this time, please try again." So than I did search networks. All it pulls up is AT&T and US. So I got curious and tried us and it had no positive return. Now I need help as I seriously just got this phone yesterday and it sucks its just sitting here now. And no I have no phone. Any help would be appreciated.
did you SIM unlock it?
I SIM unlocked mine, and got no reception, but I didn't have a chance to change APNs and such.

Yeah I bought the sim unlock code prior to rooting with success on stock sense but still never had reception.
Update: I disassembled the phone to check the cables to see if any were loose or damaged and to find out that ALL antenna cables are in tact in good shape, connected perfectly and everything, so I know that this is a issue within the software of the phone. I did use an unlock code on the stock os and when I didn't get reception than is when I rooted the phone with still no change. Any help is appreciated thank you!
You still haven't mentioned if you changed your APN settings.
Same thing happened with me last night, but on an iPhone. Just won't get service no matter what SIM I put in.

I did have the apns how they're suppose to be. And I put my sim back in my iPhone and it works fine. Its just every time I put my sim in this phone it will not work. Still really confused because hardware is fine.

What this person said....you have to change apn settings, also did you trim your tmoblie SIM card down to make it fit? Technically if apn if changed and you have a working tmobile SIM it shouldn't be possible to pick up att. Also did you try using it it case icons are saying att but signal is tmobile. You should be able to check what band you are on to verify.....good luck on your quest

Lol, I put it in my other iPhone and it works fine too. Any phone really. Must be a hardware issue.

So apn is set for tmobile. Micro sim was got from tmobile. Still no luck.
Craigslist..? Got an att sim to check out? Maybe a quick call to at&t to verify the imei is not blacklisted if you haven't already

Yes. It was blacklisted sadly. This is why I hate craigslist. I got ripped off. Now I understand why it was so cheap compared to the other ones. I guess it was kinda my fault. Thanks guys for all your suggestions.

It really wasn't what I was hoping. But it sucks they do that but they do what they gotta do. I'm just sol on this phone. Taking a $200 loss. But I think I may just part the phone out considering the screen is brand new and the parts are pricey now days. Well. Not to sure what I'm gonna do with it yet actually. But hopefully something beneficial.
