No. Odin will fail to flash that. It doesn't work like that. Since you have T-Mobile, you can root that phone and flash a custom recovery and a different rom.. You'll be able to use it then, but not if you try flashing anything other than Sprint firmware through Odin.
Why a T Mobile Rom. I have a Sprint Note 5 and have been using it on T Mobile for past couple months

That has been my goal for a while now. .How did you accomplish that if i may ask??
Just put a t mobile sim inside. You have to then add T Mobile APN. Those deets can be found by googling

Nope. Just try it

That's awesome that you were able to do it with no major changes. Props!
Ive read a few things here and there to try and do exactly what u accomplished (use a sprint on T-Mobile) every option i come accros ends up being a dead end unfortunately. I must be doing something wrong, but not quite sure where exactly. Rooting DIDNT work out very well for me and you know how With a T-Mobile SIM in sprint phone doesn't show you the netwrok settings?
Could you posibly guide me to accomplish this, my nicest prettiest please? ?

When someone can get ahold of a sprint galaxy s3 odin (or the verizion developer edition odin though i'm pretty sure sprints will leak earlier)since the two phones are the same, can't some flash (Sprint) odin on the verizon unit, root it, unlock bootloader, then add verizon libs, rils, etc files (And eventually make it into a flash able zip) to make it actually work on the carrier. Is this just a crazy idea.
I hope this makes sense xD
Wouldn't the us cellular sg3 be better for this as it is the same phone? Don't us cellular run off Verizon towers

If you could do that why wouldn't you wait for the unlocked Verizon version from samsung and save your self all the work of getting rid of sprint stuff and adding in the Verizon stuff.
But don't think it will be that easy

Cuz i don't know if or when its gonna leak :/
This is already being discussed. IIRC flashing the sprint software bricked the phone. Only time will tell but I'm guessing the VZW dev software will have the same effect.

They may have changed the partition tables, thus flashing the sprint Odin could irreparably damage the phone. Esesially if the efs partitions were different.

When do you think that the vzw developer edition odin would leak.
Also I heard a rumor that sammy's gonna send out an ota that would make it unlockable

So guys. I got my VZW GS3 flashed to simple mobile today and it works I got G internet signal and mms and such. But as of now for some reason. On white backgrounds on any app the screen flickers. So it's running bonestock a ,vzw Rom ,do I download Roms for T-Mobile gs3 ? Since simple mobile uses tmobile radios. Or do I still download VZW gs3 Roms and set the apns and such? Will I lose the flash?? Not sure if it was flashed to work or that they unlocked the baseband..
Any advice would be great!!
Im thinking if you paid money for your i535 to be flashed to Simple Mobile... you should ask for a refund.

believe me, i wouldnt do this. My father insisted in switching in order to save a ton of bucks at the end of the month
Were you running BoneStock before the flash? It has been my experience that each S3 is differently when it comes to custom ROMs. A ROM that works for you may not work for me, even though we have identical phones.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
You must stick with SCH-i535 ROMs. Especially SCH-i535 kernels and modems. Most ROMs made for other models won't even flash due to self checking Updater-Script. But kernels and modems do not have this check and you will brick if you flash them.

Gotcha, Ill stick to Verizon S3 roms, hopefully i dont lose the flash, not quite sure if they unlocked the baseband though, Global settings should work if i flash a CM10 rom correct?
and by that i mean setting my mobile network to Global and inputting the simple mobile APN?

You should be able to use the simcard when you change the settings to GSM only. I've tried a T-Mobile sim in my i535 both in Bonestock ROM and CM. Didn't test the data, but text msgs and calls worked fine. I used the phone info app to change settings.

I can use the lki method to flash a recovery, this is so frustrating. BTW, I rooted my device on 11A then ota to 12B.
If you're on 12B then you need a recovery for 12B.

Oh my bad then, I haven't heard anything official yet, either way I will just recommend to disable, everything you don't use, even some system apps, and you can replace them with PlayStore apps, like calendar, calculator, clocks, browsers, I hope you get im what im saying :fingers-crossed:

APNs are used to identify what network a phone is on or used on. It's carrier unlocked out of the box/from the factory.

TMobile. You'll need the apn settings from the carrier your on
