Hello,

If you are talking about T-Mobile phone sim you just need a apn and TTL set.

APN=fast.t-mobile.com
TTL= 64

The bands the MC7455 can get are 2, 4 and 12 on T-Mobile.

Yes the tmobile sim but not for phone but for a hotspot plan. This is the calyx tmobile hotspot/sim replacement for the sprint hotspot/sim.

Would the above still apply to my situation?

I just received my new sim from Calyx and it does not work with my MC7455, I was told Tmobile needs to swittch IMEI on there end and they will NOT do that for calyx/ mobile citizens customers. Im at a loss been trying to configure the MC7455 for over a week with no success.
