Does a galaxy s7 from verzion work on tmobile?

http://www.androidcentral.com/yes-verizon-galaxy-s7-and-s7-edge-are-sim-unlocked


This does not give a definitive answer...
What's not definitive there? here is the conclusion which pretty much says it all:

"That means you'll still be able to use the phones on T-Mobile and AT&T, but you may not get the full power of the network depending on where you're using them."

Ah, has anyone here tried this? Are those frequently used channels?

2 and 4 used to be the only ones for t-mobile, 12 is primarily for building penetration, so you will most probably not have such a good signal indoors. But the truth is that no one can tell you how it'll work out for you because it very much depends on the exact location you are at that moment.

So basically not ideal, got it. Thanks for the info!

I'm getting a moisture detected message and can't charge my phone. (It was no where near water). Does using a blow dryer really work? Any other ideas?

rice?
Trying that now. The message says the wetness is only in the charging port, was wondering if there's any quicker methods...

Can anyone recommend a good protective  case for a galaxy s7 edge? Needs to be able to withstand multiple drops daily...

I've got the same message a few times. Anyone have any idea what it comes from or what it is if my never never went anywhere near any water?

No idea why I got it either, I ended up putting it in rice for a couple hours and haven't had any issues since...

The few times it happened to me I didn't put in rice, all I did was try again about 20 min later and it worked fine.

Battery in my S7 is a disaster, I have to fully charge it at least twice a day.

I read somewhere that some of them have a battery problem and if you spend the time on the phone with samsung they will send you a replacement phone.
I personally don't have problem with my s7 battery, easily last throughout the day.
Try battery saver mode, I get 2 days with it on.
