Since MetroPCS uses the T-Mobile network, you should be able to use the new phone by just putting the SOM into it (assuming that it fits - there are currently 2 common sizes). I've been switching around between 4 phones on T-Mobile, and had no problems.

Welcome to Android Central! If you didn't get the new phone from Metro PCS, then you have to make sure that (a) the phone is unlocked, and (b) it supports Metro PCS's network bands.

Stick sim in. Turn on phone. If the above is all good, your phone is activated
