Sprint Network Integration

Following T-Mobile's acquisition of Sprint, the Sprint network has been integrated into T-Mobile's infrastructure. Former Sprint towers are being converted to enhance T-Mobile's overall coverage and capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions

My phone was on Sprint—am I automatically on T-Mobile now?

Yes. All former Sprint customers have been migrated to T-Mobile's network. Your Sprint phone now connects to T-Mobile towers using T-Mobile's network configuration. If you haven't upgraded your device since the merger, you may benefit from a newer phone that supports T-Mobile's full range of frequency bands.

Did coverage improve or get worse after the Sprint/T-Mobile merger?

For most former Sprint customers, coverage improved because T-Mobile's network is larger. However, some Sprint-only towers were decommissioned, which created temporary gaps in specific areas. T-Mobile repurposed Sprint's 2.5 GHz spectrum for 5G, which dramatically improved speeds where deployed.

Can I still find towers that were originally Sprint towers?

Yes. Former Sprint tower sites are documented in FCC records and tower databases. Many still operate under their original FCC registration but now carry T-Mobile equipment. Some have been upgraded to T-Mobile 5G using Sprint's 2.5 GHz spectrum, while others were decommissioned if redundant.

My old Sprint phone stopped working—why?

T-Mobile shut down Sprint's legacy CDMA and LTE networks. Older Sprint phones that don't support T-Mobile's GSM/LTE bands can no longer connect. You need a phone compatible with T-Mobile's network—specifically one that supports VoLTE on T-Mobile's bands. Contact T-Mobile about upgrade options.

Are Sprint towers still being used or were they all shut down?

It's a mix. T-Mobile kept thousands of former Sprint tower sites and upgraded them with T-Mobile equipment, particularly adding 2.5 GHz 5G radios. Redundant sites where a T-Mobile tower was already nearby were decommissioned. About 35,000 Sprint sites were integrated or repurposed nationwide.
