So i have a T-Mobile SGS3.
anyone know if it's possible to flash it to metro pcs
A metro pcs representative told me that no it's not supportive under their flash lists. But I just know that their lists and the community's list isn't the same.
So if anyone knows please help. :)

Are you still on ST with a tmobile sim card or did you switch to tmobile

Trying out T mobile at the moment. I wanted to see if ST cut back on the data speeds from T mobile's towers or if they didn't touch the speeds at all. I don't talk on the phone at all except for really quick conversations so the $30 T mobile plan was very appealing. So I'm trying it out. If it don't work then I'll move onto the next one. lol. I love it. Trying out all these plans to see what works best in my area. But I do hope I find one that I'm satisfied with all around so I can settle down. T mobile's $30 plan is the up front leader right now. If I cant make those 100 minutes work then I'll prolly go back to the ST plan as I have nothing bad to say about Straight Talk. :D

I would just activate it on T mobile. Better plans and much faster data speeds.

Well that depends on ones area. lol Here at the house all I get is EDGE and it reminds me of Metros 1x lol. But towards town I get 3/H/H+ and even on one rare ocassion for a brief second I seen a 4g icon. lol
 
Thanks for all the responses, I guess it's not possible I'll just take airtioteclint's advice and try to trade it on craigslist for a sgs3 from sprint verizon or metro

I didn't think it was possible. But at least two people have said it is so far. You might want to do a little more digging. Especially with sprint. Apparently their sim card is enbedded.

Well Mrpnut was the only person who said it works and he said that a friend of his had it working, and if it really is possible it's probably easier to trade or sell than it is to find out how because ive been searching extensively and all say the same thing. That it's not possible.
 
T mobile's sgs3 is flashable to metropcs! I've heard that sprint devices have an embedded SIM card.
So the sprint idea is not the best. The T-mobile device will flash. It will work as soon as you put in that uicc card, and reprogram it correctly. Period.

Up to you to believe this, or follow the FUD.
