is it possible to use a Sprint Galaxy Note 3 USB port on a T-Mobile Galaxy Note 3?

It will fit, but the antenna are different. The phone will not work properly: the wireless reception will be worse.

Charles Hart -

I did exactly that and I haven't noticed any difference at all. My phone works and charges perfectly now, and all it took was 12 bucks and a little patience. Good luck!
