With sprint if you find your lost phone you can activate it again by calling sprint, with tmobile since there is no way to disable the phone anyone who finds it can use it but can never have insurance on it again. tmobile will say only if its bought from google but they have no way of knowing where the phone came from unless that imei is tied to someone elses account or if its marked lost or stolen.

well the rep said that apparently they can tell if you put insurance on it more than 2 weeks after it was bought from google and then they won't cover it. Was he just blowing smoke up my ass?
