I never said it did, I said check to see if it's possible before trying it.

But the real problem is that I spaced that T-Mobile is shutting down the CDMA network.

If you're trying to go from CDMA to GSM, pretty sure you can't.

First problem is that the CDMA G3 uses a UICC for LTE access - the GSM model has a what that service needs - an actual sim card.

Second problem is radio hardware.

So, I don't think that this is a flashing issue.
