Help Using T-Mobile Galaxy s3 on Verizon network

[keller024]

I recently got a iPhone from Verizon and I didn't realize I only had 14 days to exchange/swap from it out for a different phone if I didn't like it. Long story short it has been past 14 days and I found someone that will trade me there galaxy s3 for my iPhone but the problem is that the phone is the T-mobile version. Do you think it's possible to run a T-mobile galaxy s3 on Verizon's network?

Can any one explain why there not compatible? I'm just curious.

T-Mobile uses GSM technology. Verizon uses CDMA technology. They are not compatible. Verizon also does not let any phone that isn't sold by Verizon on their network. So, you couldn't get another CDMA phone and transfer it to Verizon.

What about if i got the phone unlocked? I know the Iphone 4S is CDMA and GSM compatible and I'm guessing that the Galaxy 3S is too because it's carried by Verizon and T-mobile.
