I thought AT&T dropped their unlimited for new users.

The HTC Sensation 4G does not support AT&T's 850MHz/1900MHz Band in 3G, so you will run at edge speeds (I know this because I just unlocked my friends Sensation 4G to be used on AT&T) As far as unlimited data goes they say unlimited but if they see spikes in your usage wither your on a Plan or Go Phone they will now convert you to a Smartphone Data Package Automatically.
Your best bet depending on who has the best reception where you are at is to either get a Straight Talk Sim Card for T-Mobile, Which your 3G Will work or a Straight Talk Sim card for AT&T which your 2G Speeds will only work
Why don't you get the $60 T-Mobile unlimited plan?
I like Straight Talk, though I'm a little wary of the data limit.
You could also try Simple Mobile $60 plan for unlimited talk, text, and 4g data

For $60 I get unlimited data with T-Mobile and simple wireless?

Both $60 plans are the same. Except T-Mobile publishes the throttle point. Both companies throttle at 2GB's on those plans.

I purchased my MT4G from a T-Mobile store for full price without contract and did not pay the additional $25 fee for 4G. Does anyone know if my speed will be limited because I'm not paying that fee?
That $25 is for data alone. You have no data on your plan and will be billed $1.99/mb. You should call and change that.
I'm using the Even More Plus 750 + Unlimited Text & Web.
Yeah but that plan only covers regular internet not "4G" plus the 30 bucks android plan is required AFAIK.

If you are EM+ 750 TW, that's a Family plan with unlimited data and text/mms on 2 lines, then you share the 750 mins between all the lines. T-Mobile doesn't charge more for the faster internet...yet.
There is no extra charge for 4g, so if you already have the unlimited web, then you're golden. Although you might not get 4g speeds all the time, depending on where you're located.

Funny how many versions of "the truth" you will get from different reps who actually have no clue what they are talking about isn't it?
Agreed...

According to what they told me, the even more and plus includes the 4G plan. The other plans are for the laptop and the tab that they sell which requires you to have those plans.

There are some good prepaid deals. Do you even use that much data? The nice part about T-Mobile is they just knock you to edge.

Not really without paying a lot. Cricket would be the only one but that is CDMA.

You could switch to pre-paid tmobile... for $70 a month you will get Unlimited mins/text/data (5gb at 4g speeds)
That's a great price.I'm moving in 3 months and then I'm getting WiFi but thank you for that information.

Does anyone know what net-10 runs on?Is it cdma?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda app-developers app
Net 10 piggybacks off of T-mobile and AT&T, so it's GSM.
Boost Mobile piggybacks off of Sprint, so it's CDMA.
Boost Mobile has something called bill shrink, where your monthly bill decreases by $5 after a certain amount of months. The most you can get off is $15 off the bill. Basically Boost has sprint coverage and sprint network speeds.
Net 10 doesn't have 4G or very good web services, only talk and text.
So don't boost offer a $50 a month unlimited everything?If so how many Gigs of web do they give you?and boost is pre-paid service correct?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda app-developers app
They do offer $55 unlimited everything with a soft cap of 2.5 GB on the data. And yes it's prepaid.
Check here: http://www.boostmobile.com/shop/plans/monthly-unlimited/android/
Thanks for that information.I appreciate it. Takecare!!!

Do could I put my T-Mobile sim card in a net-10 phone and get 3,4G service?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda app-developers app
That phone needs to be unlocked and has to be a smartphone.
In your own opinion does net-10 data suck compared to mobile's?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G
I'm not too familiar with Net 10 data plan, but it does not seem to offer unlimited data plans. Instead, Net 10 charges you 1 minute of talk time for each minute that you are online. That's not a very good deal, if you want to use a fair amount of data.
look here: http://www.net10.com/data_svs/price_chart.jsp
Otherwise, go to Boost Mobile which has an "unlimited" data plan.
I was told that you get unlimited data on this plan.Does anyone know if this is correct.

Not for smartphones. Requires an over price data plan. I think its like $25 bux for one gig.

Straighttalksim.com has a $45 plan "unlimited" everything runs on at&t or tmobile network (you can chose) It works on any phone that has the right bands. I am running a i9100 on it now and have been for awhile

Ditto. They can cut you off if you go over a certain amount (most people say around 2-3GB a month), but so far I've used around that amount and been good. I know some people who have gone way over (5GB) and been fine too. If you use them, don't fill in the proxy fields in the APN, just the MMS proxy stuff. If you stream constantly, this service is not for you. However for anything else it's great. And you get real AT&T speeds (I've personally gotten up to 5 Mbps in some areas).

Yup ive used 2gb and been fine, and have also heard of people going over 5gb and been fine. But id say 2gb would be the safe zone, which is probably plenty for most. Just use wifi whenever you can
my sim will be coming soon and since im gonna be using a pre 2 i dont think data limits are anything to worry about. i just want stable reliable signal where I can text and get calls reliably from a certain area sprint doesnt cut it but ATT does. my question is i am a part time promotor for clubs so i send out a crap load of texts (on sprint i saw my amount and it was around 22000 lol)
if i decide to make this my main phone i will be consuming that much.....phone calls arent an issue i mainly talk only to my gf for long periods of time at night lol
will i be kicked off for this usage?
Hey if I only wanted 5-10 of data a month with no minutes or texts is that possible?and if it is how much would I be looking at for just 5 Gb of 4G data a month.I have a unlocked HTC sensation 4G a t-mobile smartphone.so do I order a sim card from straight talk?how much is a sim card?can I call and order a sim card and activate the sim for just monthly data?I would appreciate it if someone would please explain my qwestions.

Texts don't really use data so you would be fine. Data use would be like Pandora.

You could get your cellphone activated on Clearwireless if it's available in your area. It works on HTC EVO, and I think it would on sensation... Just google "activate htc evo on clearwireless" to get on the right path... Good luck!

The Evo is a cdma device and the Sensation is a gsm device. They are not compatible. Clearwireless is a cdma provider (mvno).

Yes, it does. GSM SIMs and (for example) the SIMs used by Verizon (I don't, know if, Sprint has switched to a SIM based system for their up and coming LTE network) would not be compatible. You CANNOT USE A device like the Sensation on a CDMA network, period.

Sprint uses "integrated SIMs" for their LTE phones, which basically means they still use the same MEID/ESN system. Identical to the old 3G/WiMax system. And yes, you're correct. You can't use a GSM phone on a CDMA network period. You can, however take a hybrid GSM/CDMA phone (like a Droid 2 Global) and get it to work on GSM networks by hacking the radio not to ignore domestic networks like AT&T and T-Mobile.

Great news for T-Mobile customers and people that are interested in switching to T-Mobile. Finally another US carrier other than Sprint that offers truly unlimited data. Thoughts?
Yea i think its good but if they lower the price like boost mobile it think more people would switch...

I'm wondering for those of us already on unlimited but 4G capped at 2GB, will this apply to us? :good:
I think so. It said on the up sell information that it suggests the T-Mobile employees sell it because it has way more advantages and is only ten more bucks.
