Enable T-Mobile's LTE Service on Your Unlocked iPhone

T-Mobile recently announced that it's going to start selling the iPhone 5, not to mention roll out their LTE service to a number of cities. If you've got an older iPhone and want to switch to T-Mobile (perhaps for their new contract-free plans), weblog LEI Mobile has a how-to for enabling LTE.

The T-Mobile iPhone will be a slightly modified handset, meaning you can't just bring your current unlocked phone to T-Mobile and get service. However, if you have an unlocked and jailbroken iPhone from AT&T (or the direct-from-Apple, non-Verizon model), you can actually enable the correct LTE band for T-Mobile with a few tweaks.

The only downside is that you won't be able to connect to HSPA+ like you could on T-Mobile's modded handset. That means if you leave one of T-Mobile's LTE-enabled cities, you won't have their HSPA+ service to fall back on. Still, if you want to switch to T-Mobile without buying another iPhone 5 (maybe you want to wait until the new model comes out), this'll at least get you those super fast speeds. Hit the link for the full how-to.
