actually, relatively few. recent iphones have all bands, however, older
iphones and most android phones do not.

nope, since there's nothing to lose. sprint *can't* roam on verizon lte.

spring can roam on verizon cdma, but that offers little benefit.

no they don't, nor have they ever, since that's not physically possible
for most phones.

all sprint/verizon towers now have lte.

cdma support only exists for those with very old phones that do not
support lte and/or volte.
