Check radio bands, no CDMA, no LTE band 13 on AT&T version. It won't work.
Plus why would you want the one version that has more crap on it than Verizon phone? AT&T added an ad for DirecTV, ads on phones just sucks IMO.

I am currently on AT&T with a Galaxy S7 edge (GM935A) can I unlock it and use it on Verizon?
Yes you can unlock. First thing is to root it, and flash the all carrier ROM.

I never had a gsm phone so I dont know alot about world phones. On sprints community foruma there is much debate if the gs4 is a world phone. I see a sim slot my guess that it is. Anyway if I were to switch to tmobile, can this phone be used or is it completely impossible? Other countries use gsm networks only so being a world phone I would assume that it can be used with US gsm networks. Thanks.

It is a world phone but it is locked to Sprint only you can call sprint and have it unlocked for international and sprint simcards only no domestic Sims like from t-mobile and AT&T.

Okay did some research and youre correct. Invalid sim pops up when a local sim is inserted. Lets say I flash the google edition rom stock rooted. Now I know it will mess up all radio with cdma but will this bypass or does sprint have a hardware lock on the device?

Yes, it will work on tmobile for text and call when you unlocked it. For data, you need to change the apn setting to epc.tmobile.com. I am sure that you will get EDGE but not sure about 3g/4g or LTE.

That is not correct. It will work if you unlocked it. You will only get EDGE data for the time being in the US.

You can't do it, it is impossible. Sprint has US carriers blocked and there is no method to unlock to use a Sprint phone on Tmobile. So here is the steps to follow: List your Sprint phone on Ebay or Craigslist, Sell it, go buy a Tmobile S4, enjoy.

Im having difficulties rooting the S4. When I check it says its not rooted properly. Im still on MF9 and have no clue how to get it to MDC/MDL baseband. Any help? And how would you change the apn settings?

There seems to be a very dismissive attitude in this thread.
I have a Sprint HTC One and I can easily throw a T-Mobile SIM in there and get full service (sans LTE) with T-Mobile. The HSPA+ is faster than the Sprint 3G.
So while I do not have personal experience with the S4 in this fashion, I do not see why it would not be possible to get it unlocked and used on T-Mobile. (Unless Samsung/Sprint are blocking it for whatever reason)
Hello and happy new year to the great dev's and everybody who made this forum a success.
I wanted to know if we're going to see any sim unlock for the sprint galaxy s7 edge for international use?
I know this is no big deal to the great developers here but as we know this phone has its boot loader locked. Or is it possible to sim unlock without unlocking the boot?
There was a guy in here who was offering the unlock domestic and international. He was asking for 11 dollars. I did it it works great. Tried an At&t sim on my Sprint S7E worked like a charm. Search you should find him. He has you contact him via Skype and walks you through it.

I tried the solution from idoneapps.com. Seems to have worked...I can put an AT&T GoPhone sim and it is recognized. I haven't activated the sim, though, so it doesn't connect to anything yet.

According to the info on their website, idoneapps can global unlock SIM without root...it just needs root to do other features. After performing the unlock, I can insert an AT&T sim and it is recognized, so I assume that it worked...

Yes, it appears that they all use the same hardware but different software. Check the sprint forums to find a tutorial.

No it won't AT&T SUCKS like that if you want latest updates fast switch carrier there is a beta you can flash vzw version but no 4g and bad data plus lots of bugs if you use vzw version on ATT. Read the the recent posts and you would know.

So did the WiFi Calling work on your T-Mobile network? My AT&T branded phone has WiFi calling greyed out and am considering this. I wonder if flashing stock would still work on Oreo, i.e. Nothing new has been implemented by Samsung or added in by AT&T.
