Can an unlocked iPhone 4s from Virgin Mobile work on T-Mobile's network? Pretty sure the answer is no, but a family member has been bugging me. A detailed explanation would be nice.
That's wrong, while Virgin is a Sprint subsidiary and thus CDMA, and Tmobile is GSM, all iPhone 4s phones have both CDMA and GSM radios in them. This wasn't the case for the iPhone 4, but is with the 4s. Getting the carrier to unlock it to use it on another carrier can be hard though.
