Metro PCS S7 on T-Mobile Network - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers

Hello, I have a few questions about using a Metro PCS S7 on the T-Mobile network. Can I get the following?
Advanced Messaging
VoLTE
Band 12 LTE
T-Mobile Wi-Fi Calling
What other features would I miss out? Metro PCS pushes out the updates, so I would be expecting Android N much later than everyone else? Anything else I should know? Thanks.

Unlock 4G lte bands verizon M8?

Hi,
I'm using a verizon M8 on a non-verizon network. The Verizon version should support 4G LTE on band 3 and 14 (the hardware should even support 3,4,7,13). My provider supports 4G LTE on band 3 and 7, yet i don't receive 4G.
I'm guessing Verizon locks 4G to their network. Is there any way to unlock my phone so i can use 4G LTE with my provider? (T-mobile NL)
I am willing to do anything. Already reflashed my phone with verizon ROM but that doesn't help obviously because it's not a stock rom..
Thanks!
There is a working solution for the Android:

I think, there IS a way to adopt it to the Windows Phone.

AT&T SIM on VZW S6
Hello,
I have the same question how AT&T SIM would behave on VZW S6.
1. Which APN Are you using? Are you using phone or pta APN?
2. When receiving incoming calls, does the format look like example: +8085551212 missing 1?
your response is appreciated!!!

I got 4g lte .. I used both settings and when I make calls out it drops to 1x and then when receive calls I have 3G. Seems like the pta settings works better didn't see and h or h+ which. Did on the phone apn settings. I have a Vzw iPhone since I work there thought the s6 would be easy since know the turbo works. There's something missing and can't find it. Everything works I do get the +then the number tho. But haven't had issues sending or receiving texts. Just it should drop to 4g when on the phone and should work whether I get or receive calls. Minor issues happening I did switch it to gsm instead of world that may have been why h or h+ didn't occur with pta. I'll update what I figure out if you all do so as well
i remember seeing it somewhere, but can't find it when i need it, how do i permanently disable the non-verizon sim warning when using any other sim in the vzw gs6?
(i have succeeded on a one time basis by force stopping activation agent, but there's a permanent fix if i'm not mistaken)
Verizon variant doesn't support AT&T's original LTE layer which is Band 17. So you won't see LTE on your Verizon variant unless AT&T has either Band 2 or Band 4 deployed in your market.
At&t LTE worked just fine on Verizon S5. So why not S6?

It is a hardware limitation

I think Band 17 is the issue. Most of AT&T LTE is on Band 17.
I am currently connected to LTE (Band 4) on my Verizon G6, using a AT&T sim.
I used the LTE Discovery app to get this info.

[Completed] [Q] Please help At&t lte on Verizon LG G4 Unlocked

I have an unlocked Verizon LG G4 VS986, I have an AT&T sim card in it and can make and receive calls and texts just fine. I also have internet but it's showing the H symbol and an up and down arrow below it. I have speed tested it in many places including my house and it is slower than My At&t s6 edge was while using the data. I checked a bunch of places and the APN settings seem to be correct. Why am I not getting 4g or lte speeds when I was in the same places with my At&t branded S6 Edge? Can anybody help me atleast get hspca or lte?
Thanks
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. Unfortunately Verizon uses a different LTE band than other carriers. Their hardware often only supports that band. You can see if other users here can help, http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help There probably are as this is a common question regarding Verizon hardware on the AT&T network.

Need help with finding Galaxy S5 version

Hello,
my provider is NET10. They support GSM,CDMA, and LTE. I am trying to find a Samsung Gala5y S5 to use at my provider, but I can only find versions for Sprint, T-Mobile, ATT, or Verizon. Sprint, T-Mobile, ATT show that they use only GSM and Verizon CDMA.
Does anyone know what I have to look for on the Galaxy S5 to use all networks (GSM,CDMA, and LTE) ?
Thank you
First step would be to verify with net 10 they are a GSM carrier if I am correct. This being said you could not use Verizon GS5. This would leave sprint to mobile AT&T I would verify with someone who is using one of those devices on NET 10. Sorry I am not more help as I have a Verizon GS5 but hopefully it is a start!

Does The Sprint Galaxy S6 work on T-Mobile

Need some help. I am planning on switching from Sprint to T-Mobile as Sprint has become outrageously expensive if you own your phone with all these additional fees they are charging. So I wanted to know if the Galaxy S6 from Sprint would work with the T-Mobile network including LTE and all of it's features or what would I need to do for it to be able to work on T-Mobile. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
T-Mobile uses LTE bands 2, 4, and 12. Band 4 seems to be the primarly LTE band T-Mobile uses. The Sprint S6 (920P) does not have LTE bands 4 and 12 according to this thread/page. I would get a T-Mobile model phone to get full access to their network.
