Okay i just wanted to know if i can use this phone on tmobile? now i just unlocked it but didnt get tmoble yet, becauses i just wanted to know if the 3G will work on this phone. now i know that tmobile is running on 2100mhz UMTS witch is there 3G network. and i do know that the tour supports CDMA 850 / CDMA 1900 GSM 850 / GSM 900 / GSM 1800 / GSM 1900 WCDMA 2100. has anyone unlocked the tour from sprint and see if the 3G works?
I popped in my buddy's sim card and got gprs to work, but tmobile doesn't have 3G I'm my area. That aside, the tour does support 3G. Look through the threads, many people have 3G working

my tour works for tmobile. a few days ago i took it in to test and they popped in a sim card and it worked.
Yes it works. I followed the threads posted here and it's working perfect. Including the Browser. I'm very satisfied with my new Tour. (and yes, it's with T-Mobile)
It will work but u won't get 3g speed on any US GSM network as I understand it.

I do not believe the 3g will work on any us carriers network other then verizon and sprint.. they do this intentionally
3G implies speed of connection, on a CDMA network, that's EVDo (instead of 2.5G 1xRTT) whereas on GSM its HSP/DA (instead of EDGE) where the Tour is a World phone, I'd expect you'd get 2.5G EDGE or perhaps GPRS speed connections on T-Mo but not HSPA given the lack of radios to support GSM 3/ in addition to those already in place to support CDMA 3G.

T-Mobile USA doesn't operate on 2100mhz UMTS, neither does AT&T, so you won't be able to use GSM's 3G on the Tour in the US. I'm not sure what country you're in, I can't tell from the WAP site. T-Mo USA uses 1700mhz UMTS, so you'll need the 9700...

I have US Cellular and my tour has 3g no problems.
