Hopefully someone knows the answer or can point me to the right forum....I left my Nokia 900 and ATT last year for Metro PCS and a Samsung galaxy S III, I miss Windows Phone. Does anyone know if any Windows 8 phones from any of the carriers can be flashed to run on Metro's network? It seems like they have a unique LTE frequency that no one else is using. I am jonesing to get a Windows 8 phone but I need one that can talk to the Metro PCS network. Anyone know a little about this? I trust XDA heads way more than I trust the Metro PCS retailers.
Thanks

I'm actually surprised also, with all the recent low end phones out there, it makes one wonder why there aren't any WP7.8 or WP8 devices available for carriers such as Boost Mobile, Cricket, Virgin, or Metro PCS:confused:

Because the Back end Network For Boost, Virgin, and Metro (sorry I know nothing of Cricket) is Sprint and we all know how much Sprint loves the WP.
