SM-T817A and a carrier move



Sorry if this is a real noob question, but...

I have the AT&T version of the SM-T817 and just recently moved all devices over to T-Mobile. The tablet is unlocked and the new SIM card is in place and working fine.

My question: is it possible to flash the T-Mobile version of Android over this? Don't know (but can guess) whether the bootloader is locked (the tablet is not rooted). The main reason would be to get the MM update, which I am pretty sure AT&T will never actually release. My guess is that it would not be possible and if there was an LTE-supported version of a custom ROM out there, that might be the only way to go.

So...possible? And if not, is there a ROM someone could recommend which is based on MM and supports T-Mobile LTE?
