I am hoping to get a Note 4 soon. I have ATT and was wondering which variant of the phone I should get if I want the boot loader to be unlockable?

Will it operate fully on ATT?

My cousin is on att and he popped his sim in it. He had to add his apn settings and everything worked just fine.

Wow that's good to know. How would I unlock Note to use on ATT?

I did a search and found nothing on the GT Note using simple Mobile.
Has anyone tried this as yet, and can you tell us what the speeds are like so far.
And what package did you go with.
Looks like they use T-Mobile's network, which means nothing over EDGE speeds.
I'm running one of the AT&T MVNOs on a trial basis and so far I have not been disappointed. I am loathe to give up my T-Mobile plan but unless there's a breakthrough in getting 1700/2100 AWS working on this thing I might have to make the move permanently.
AT&T GoPhone offers unlimited everything for $50 a month pay-as-you-go fyi.

Go phone sim cards are locked to the phone now. Unless you can convince AT&T to give you a new unlocked one it doesn't work.

I know this is old.....but just wanted to update it. I am using AT&T version with Simple Mobile now. The internet speed sucks big time. On speed test, i am consistently getting 25kb/s. With that speed, I am changing to the International Note next week....

You can flash a T-Mobile compatible modem on the AT&T version, if you're not aware.

So what are people doing now, then??
I want to goto 50$ month unlimited everything next month when my contract is up?
Is there a solution to STILL using ATT GO Phone plans with our GN7000's?
thanks.
You need Straight Talk with the AT&T sim.

What about this? As long as you aren't using any device which has ever been AT&T branded in any way shape or form (like an unlocked Note), this should work just fine!
I can't find a clear answer on this, does the nexus 4 use both a standard sim card, a micro sim card, or does it support both?
Thanks in advance
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda app-developers app
Nexus 4 is micro SIM.
Thank you. Does every carrier have micro sim cards? Currently I only have a regular sim card and am not sure if Fido has micro sims.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda app-developers app
I think they all do, yeah. Just give them a call and they'll be able to let you know
I currently have an LG Optimus one with a normal size sim. When I get the Nexus 4 I plan on cutting the sim to micro sim dimensions then sticking it in my new device. Will it work instantly with my existing plan from my Optimus one?

Mine didn't when I moved to the ONE X
So, I jumped on amazon and bought myself a noosy micro SIM cutter.
Worked a treat

Thanks. I just checked fidos website. They do have micro sims. They even have a dual format (micro sim + regular) so I can use my existing captivate as a backup still.

That's a shame, its fun cutting your own.
You go from scared and worried, to really happy and impressed in a few seconds lol
Its a strange old feeling. Haha
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Lol yes. If I had to I would try cutting it, but that would mean I couldn't use my cappy as a backup afterwards. Definitely glad fido has the dual sim card option for that reason.

I'm on O2 UK with a full-size SIM. Do you think I could just ask them to give me a micro-SIM?
SIM
The phone has a micro-sim and if you cant get hold of a micro then the only decision is to cut it yourself. The sim still works equally well!

Or just ask your carrier for a new sim. Cutters are fun but why not get a new doggie

I had an iPhone 4 so I had to cut my Sim card but when I moved to HTC Inspire 4G then I still had the extra pieces so i fitted them in the device. Now when I will get Nexus 4, I can simply use the Micro Sim and keep those pieces to a safe place

I'm on T-Mobile UK and when I asked they said it would cost me £10. I tried to cut my own, but the chip is huge! What I did was ring them up and they were able to credit me the money to my next bill. Give that a try...I'm not saying it will work, but its worth a try.

T-mobile charged you £10? I'm with three, and I just walked into my local store a few months back and they exchanged it for me for free.

Don't quote me on it but if your carrier supports any phones that require a micro sim, then yes

Yeah, they call is an "admin fee"...not sure why. All the guy did was get a new SIM, scan it in and then enter in my phone number and details. If I hadn't got my money back I wouldn't have been too happy about it.
AT&T gave me one for free as well..

Yes, it will immediately work.
As the title suggests, I am talking to a guy who has a t-mobile nexus 4 that he is currently using on t-mobile.
I wanted to buy it but he said I would have to take it to a store to get it unlocked to work on AT&T. Is that true? Or can I just pop in my AT&T sim card and be good to go?
Thanks!

Yeah, it comes factory unlocked. Pop in an AT&T micro SIM, adjust APN settings accordingly and he should be good to go!
+1 on above post.
theres no such thing as a "t-mobile" nexus 4 , t-mobile just sells it, its the exact same nexus 4 you can buy from the google play store.
just pop your sim in and youll be fine. it comes factory unlocked already.
You can, but, I've read that the data speed is not as fast as it would be on T-Mobile. So just something to keep in mind.
Check the bands for speed reference and its only LTE that operates on a different band for AT&T so you won't be able finger that. Other than that you will be OK.
I bought a Note 3 to flash to my carrier but It didn't come with a SIM card. I need the SIM card in order to have 3g. Where can I buy one? Thanks for the help

It does I have a note 2 and I use my sim from my note 3 and everything works fine he is an idiot
??Note III??
Or you could just go to a Verizon store and get one for free. Or call them and they'll send you one free.
Tempted to buy the phone on eBay but it's locked to Vodaphone and I want to use a Three SIM card in there.
Is it easy to unlock?
Just buy one on 3
