So on TMobile, I can buy an unlocked GSM phone and it can work on T-Mobile right? Or is it too much to ask. Thanks 😕

Yes. If it has the GSM 1900MHz band on it, it will work.

Yep! Just make sure that its unlocked before you buy it because T-Mobile will only unlock their phones

well if you have a tmobile sim card you wouldnt need to have a unlock code. buuuuuuuuuut you have to be careful buying from ebay or wherever make sure it comes unlocked. if you live in vegas i know a place you can go to get it unlocked for a few dollars and een get a cdma phone changed to gsm.

only by changing the mother board...and some external parts well....but there would have to be a GSM version of that phone that you have the parts of...or one that your willing to rape for parts....that all seems a bit redundant though....just buy the GSM one...
