Will Rooting a Nexus 6 unlock it from TMobile?
I bought a Nexus 6 on eBay to replace my cracked Nexus 6. It was listed as being used on AT&T but it was my understanding that these phones could work on both CDMA & GSM. When I bought my last N6 I had to go get a sim card from a Sprint store, and it worked fine.
The Sprint site does not recognize the IMEI and when I chatted w/ a rep on line she told me to go to a store to get a new SIM card (even tho I have a SIM card working in my current N6).
One in-store rep told me it should work if I go to a store w/ Sim cards and another told me I should just have the screens swapped at the repair store that "they recommend" for a discounted price. I feel like non of the reps really have any idea - especially on a phone a couple years old.
I really like my Nexus 6 & money is kinda tight. I don't want to spend a fortune on a phone when this one is perfect for me. Should I keep going to different Sprint stores and asking new reps? If I have a Sprint SIM card working in a same-model (XT1103) shouldn't it work in this one?
