Straight Talk AT&T

I ordered a AT&T Straight Talk SIM card off of eBay. It was adversitied as brand new and the pictures showed the package as if it was in any store. It was shipped through the mail taped to a letter with instructions of activating it on an iPhone. It had the SIM card # and a Straight Talk "dummy" serial # to use. I figured I'd use it since it was there instead of my Nexus' serial #.
I went through the activation online and everything went smoothly. I did a factory reset on my phone, inserted the SIM card and went through the setup.
It's been about 4 hours now and I'm still getting no signal. I have tried different APN settings found on Google and forum search results on here and other tech forums. Still nothing? I even tried to set the settings in *#*#INFO#*#* to GSM only and LTE/GSM Auto but it will always reset to WCDMA preferred after resetting trying different APNs.
I called customer support twice. The first guy just did the "I need to gather your information" process for first callers then told me they're busy and to call back in 2-4 hours. The second time, a woman asked me to remove the battery while its still on. It took me about 15 minutes to explain to her that I have a Nexus 4 and not the "dummy" phone I activated with. She then told me there's nothing she can do because nothing problems show up on my account.
What do I do? You guys told me AT&T SIM cards still work, they're just not sold in stores. ;_;

I just activated another ST att Sim this morning..
Did you use the APN settings from the straight talk n4 thread ?
Also why would you use a dummy phone/ I have never did that.

What are your APN settings? From reading, a lot say att.mvno or whatever no longer works.

Did you get the unlimited plan?

Yes the $45 card.

I saved them. I input your settings. When I restart, it still says "NO SERVICE" then goes to "EMERGENCY CALLS ONLY"
I know it's not that I don't have service because I'm not even connected to the network and I still have no phone number in my phone details. But my account on the website shows my phone number and everything.
I guess I can buy another card and activate it again?

Sounds like a sim issue.

My iPhone is through Ntelos which is CDMA. I got the Nexus to get out of contract carriers. T-Mobile only has Edge/2G in my region so I ordered an ATT SIM off eBay.

Were you able to get it to work?
Most likely the credit card is being denied.
Try looking at http://wallet.google.com for the issue

SIM Problems

I searched around but couldn't find anything to solve my problem.
I just bought a LG G2 D800 from Ebay, clean ESN and I double checked it and it was clean.
I unlocked it in CyanogenMod which only required 1 unlock code, but then reverted to stock 4.2.2 restore where there's 5 different locks? When I try to tap each it displays, "Your phone is not personalized".
I slotted my MetroPCS SIM in and the phone displays "Phone not allowed MM #6" on reboot.
Those are all the steps I have done so far to try and use my MetroPCS SIM. This is my first time ever using a GSM Phone, I have no idea what to do now. I've tried to look around Google and XDA and can't find my problem. There was no errors on the AT&T SIM.

looks like a carrier simlocked phone. Is it carrier branded?

Factory reset has done nothing.
Basically, I unlocked the phone, but it isn't unlocked.
Is there any way to reset the lock? Or something of that nature.

Random reboot...

That's misleading, it's the same SIM, designed differently. I had self-cut SIM for a long time - it's not a problem. Your phone must have some hardware failure, like with PCs. It might be the CPU or the memory. I'd take it to customer service to try get it repaired / get a replacement.

This is not a good advice. Before anything he have to replace the Sim to the real MicroSIM. If you did that and is working do not matter at all. Is not the right thing to do just to avoid 5 bucks. If the problem will persist with the new microSIM then yes, it will be a problem, but first have to be replaced the Sim.

Get a new Micro SIM.

Does your phone get hot? Sometimes a rogue app can keep your CPU at max speed and it will make your device hot, thus phone will reboot by itself.
Just my 2 cents

it could be some app tat causes all the memory(RAM) to be used up.
anyway i also do cut the SIM card to microSIM myself. but of cos if u cut it rite, shouldnt hav any problem.

The problem is not the sim that I've cutted, tonight I've taked off my sim, and the phone hai restarted... The problem, i think is th battery or the motherboard....

After the Update to .136, reboot your phone once and then make a factory reset to clean up the installation then all should be fine.
