My friend is selling her samsung behold,which I'm super interested in buying, but she has verizon, and I have tmobile. I need to know if I can possibly flash it? Also, if you know any places that I can flash it, that would be great. I really appreciate any answers! Thanks!!
 
No sorry its not possible. like the other people said t-mobile is a GSM network which basically means they use SIM cards (u have a SIM card), but Verizon is a CDMA network and they dont, so they arent compatable. I know it sucks, especially when there is an awesome phone only from Verizon and u cant get it. I live in Australia so if i want to buy a phone from eBay it HAS to be GSM, so that really limits what u can get. :(
 
Most direct stores will have this ability depending on the carrier... I know verizon does it & cricket does it but Im not sure about tmobile in theory though if you call any of their stores they should be able to confirm & you should be able to locate the stores in your area by going to their website.
good luck :)
 
You can't. Verizon works on CDMA network, T-Mobile is GSM. CDMA does not use SIM cards to connect to the network, all of that is done within the devices built-in hardware. T-Mobile uses SIM cards on their network, so no Verizon phone is compatible with T-Mobile, unless there is a GSM version available. In this case, you cannot use your friends phone.
 
You can't. Verizon is on CDMA tech and T-mobile runs on GSM. The techs are not compatible. I used to work in cell phones and I got this question all the time. In the USA we can't do it.
