Root Phone is rooted, still can't make calls

Did the root as per forum instructions, tested with Root Checker and it verifies the phone is rooted.

I'm trying to leave MetroPCS and go to T-Mobile. Have pre-paid the account and activated it. Still getting "Service Disabled" when using the T-Mobile sim.

Are there any additional steps that I need to take? Would be great if anyone can assist.

huh? ?? u can't use a T-Mobile sim card lg esteem doesn't use sim cards that little card is a 4g LTE card :confused:
 
Snap.. it's not the same card? Thought it was the same since it looked the same, and T-Mobile brand was T-Mobile 4G.

So I would need a new phone?
