As long as you buy an unlocked phone (eBay is your best bet), then you can use whatever carrier you want. Just switch over your sim card
2 :
these phone cannot be unlocked so you cant realy used for defferent carrier these phone are exclusive to T-mobile only
3 :
It will not work. You used to be able to use a phone with whatever carrier you want. You can't do that anymore. Thats why they have different phones for every company. You should consider ending your contract with your current carrier and switching to t-mobile. Good Luck!

Heyyyy i have that very same phone :) And you can have it unlocked to any service as long as that service uses a SIM card! Call T-Mobile and ask them, the number is 1.800.937.8997 or call your carrier and ask them (better yet, call BOTH, just to clarify!) PS- Unless you have the data package with this phone, it's CRAP and won't save your address contacts and will have horrid service. I gave in to the data package after a month of pure torture... And I don't think that unlocking it from T-Mobile allows it to have full features, because Sidekicks run from a server called Danger, which is exclusive to T-Mobile, and T-Mobile requires a $19.95/month "Sidekick Plan" to use it.... (it's not available from any other carrier) So all you would be getting is Calls and Texts, no data... making the phone horrible.....
