Using nexus 4 in mexico? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What's the carrier to go with when I go on my vacation there? And how do I go about getting a Sim?

If you will use your own SIM, don't worry as soon as you get on Mexican soil your phone will tell which carrier its giving you roaming services.
If you are planning to get a SIM there you first have to be sure that your phone is SIM UNLOCKED, then check with your provider which bands are using and do a little search on Mexican provider to match those bands.
Good luck and enjoy your vacation.

I'm on my nexus 4 and just wondering what is the best company to go with when im in morelos.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

Telcel and movistar are the only ones with LTE and even then its limited to certain cities (monterrey, DF, Guadalajara, Mérida so far... )
I've a data plan with telcel
You can get a sim almost anywhere, if they're selling cellphones and got telcel advertisers just ask for it, same with other carriers

Thanks what about getting a Sim before I go so once I cross the border I don't have to worry. I will be driving the whole time.

If you can go for it, if not be prepared for paying the roaming

No there is no way to change it.

It will work on T-Mobile 2G and/or 3G if you live in an area where T-Mobile has the 1900Mhz band, on AT&T though it will get 4G.

Price difference

I have an iPhone 4 at the moment. I just ordered a galaxy nexus, and would like to hook it up to my current line, but I am not sure if I could get 4g on it , without paying more. If I don't, could I still get 3g? Thanks

You shouldnt have to pay more. Who's your carrier?

Which carrier?
Verizon

No they will not charge you more. Unless you used a upgrade and had unlimited data they will now switch you to a shared data plan which might cost you more depending on your data habits. But if you bought it on your own and are just doing a phone swap they will not charge you more.

They do the exact oppisite where we live, they charge the crap out of you seeing we are one of the most expensive countries in the world when it comes to cellular everything for that matter

Just talk to customer care and ask them to put this on your line.

No, I highly doubt you will have to pay more. I know that with AT&T they call it an LTE plan even if you don't have access to LTE.

At&t Moto X sim unlocked on T-mobile LTE

Hi, I have been in 4 At&t stores today trying to purchase the Moto X with my prepay account. And all the store employee s and managers were telling me that I have to purchase with a 2 year contract. So I tried the last store and one of the employees OKed it and I got it. So I have T-Mobile service and I wanted to use on that and request an unlock from unlockcode247. com and after 3 hours they send me the code for just $13 so now I have the phone unlocked on T-Mobile LTE.

Thanks man. That's great news. I can at least import the AT&T model to the UK now.
Two quick questions. Does the annoying AT&T address book sync keep popping up when you open the phone or people app? Also can you disable the two bits of AT&T bloatware?
The 2 apk I disabled but the at&t address book is not possible to disable. The people app still address book pops up

UMTS:
850, 900, 1700/2100, 1900, 2100 MHz

I want to know if I got an unlocked one, will it work here in my country.
Does it need to be activated or anything before you can unlock it?

Perhaps simply asking for one.
I know that for me, in my little Country of Canada, I can simply walk into a Cell Phone
Service Provider and buy one and activate it online.
