Root [MetroPCS/GSM] T-Mobile GS3 on Metro PCS

[viceless]

So i followed the directions to SIM unlock, get a "SUCCESSFUL" message once completing the steps, but I am getting a "Not Registered on Network" error when trying to make calls. Payed the $15 to have the phone added to metro, but still not working. What's going on?

In case anyone cares, I called Metro the next day. Turns out, the guy at the shop typed in the IMEI wrong...

Stupid typo kept me from using my phone for a day, =|

Anyways, all good now. T-Mobile GS3 on MetroPCS. Getting 14 MBPS down on Speedtest.net!!!

What area are you in? I get about 30+ MBPS and 25+ up in Michigan

I flashed Carbon Rom KK on a T-Mobile S3 and it works fine. 4g symbol only shows H+ now, however. I looked in network settings and found where I can switch to metro (APN)...

Any benefits if I change it to Metro instead of T-Mobile?
