Re: In the us only tmobile or att works with the sim based iphon said by Joe12345678:In the us only tmobile or att works with the sim based iphone But no 3G with TM on the iPhone. TMUSA HSDPA runs on a proprietary band in the USA. We will see a CDMA iPhone or LTE iPhone which will have a much larger customer base before we see a 1700 HSDPA iPhone. The LTE iPhone will have 700/1700 bands, both ATT and VZ plan to run LTE on their 700 and 1700 bands. |

 | Nope. T-Mobile uses the 1700/2100 AWS band for 3G. There is no iPhone with this band configuration. While you can get an unlocked iPhone that will run on any GSM carrier, you will not get 3G service on T-Mobile with it. |
