Just received a t-mobile tab from Amazon which I ordered without any plan for a full price. However it came with the SIM card preinstalled and activated on the t-mobile network.
Will t-mobile charge me for any data usage I may incur?
If you don't sign anything then T-Mo will have a hard time charging you...
I guess that you can, however, use the "My Account" (or so) app to buy T-Mo prepaid data.
I would bet there is small print somewhere saying they can and will charge you. I'd call T-Mobile to be safe

I've contacted T-Mobile and they don't have any record on my name!
if you try and use it you wont get very far though.
weird. was that sim card pre-installed? I just got mine from ebay that was sealed and already had sim punched out and installed in the device. I didn't even try that one before powering on just poped in my main sim card which failed to work and now just using with no sim in it.
I ordered AT&T version from Amazon and mines too came with the SIM card already inserted into the tab. But I took it out for fear of getting charged if turned on with it in. I put my phone SIM in and SMS works, but I couldn't pick up a 3G singal from it. Will be rooting EURO next week or so. Still looking to see if I actually want to keep this.
So I am going to get the N4 from the play store as soon as its available.
I have a galaxy S2 with TMobile now. I've put it up for sale and have a buyer all lined up. How do I activate the N4? Will there be a place for my to put my SIM card in? Will I have to take the phone to TMobile?

there's nothing to activate, just make sure your SIM card is a microsim. If it isn't then I suggest ordering a 3$ micro sim cutter from amazon, or go to T-mobile and see if they're willing to give you a micro sim.

Thats what I needed to know. I have a mini sim in my S2. I don't even know if tmobile has micro sim cards yet. I'll end up getting one from amazon.

[ If I helped, hit the thank button ]
Haha, I don't think I'll get a micro sim or a micro sim cutter. I'm cutting it with scissors LOL. But it probably would be a good idea to go to att and ask for a micro sim so I could keep the original to go back in my old phone if the N4 sucks, butI doubt it will...so I'm still cutting it with scissors

You don't have to take it to T-Mobile. I just called Customer Support (611) this evening and told them I'm getting an unlocked phone to upgrade my current line and need a micro SIM for it, and they are mailing me one free. (They'll do expedited shipping if you pay for it.) When you get your Nexus 4, just call 611 again or go to www.t-mobile.com/sim to activate it. No scissors, no cutter, and no trip to the store necessary.
Just talked to the tmobile rep. I can go to any tmobile store and get a micro sim card free of charge at any time.

Funny thing. I just called them asking that exact statement, they said unfortunetly they cannot ship just the micro sim card, only with a new phone. I asked to speak to a manager and got transfered to the accessories department. They went on to tell me they don't deal with that and I need to go in store WITH THE DEVICE.

That's because you were the guy who escalated to a manager. Trust me on this, I've worked call centers. Just be polite, say thanks anyways and call back. You'll get someone else and they may have a different tune. Having been on the other end of the phone, no matter how nice or polite you are, if you "ask to speak to a manager" you are labeled instantly as a ****.

Never said you did it right away, but the fact you did at all is the point. Not trying to step on toes, just giving some call center tips to help you get what you are looking for. I won't go into it as this isn't the place for it, but feel free to PM me if you are interested in some good tips.
Activating for myself will involve dropping in with my N4 to Telus retail and picking up a microSIM as my current phone uses a regular SIM. Store has it listed for 10$, but we'll see if I can talk it down. I don't want to deal with cutting the SIM.

Careful with that, friend did it with a printout template and it wouldn't work on the HTC One X because it was off by a very small amount. Even despite trying tape/etc it still wouldnt make proper contact.

Huh, strange. I wouldn't have expected that, given how straightforward and easy it was when I called. I said, "I'm buying an unlocked phone and need a micro SIM for it," and the agent just asked which line I was putting it on and how soon I needed it, then confirmed that the order had been placed; couldn't have been easier. Oh, well, YMMV, I guess. (And we'll see how well it works when I get the phone -- it's possible that it was easy because it was wrong! Worst case, I have to hop in the car for the 20-minute drive down to the T-Mobile store.)

Does this not look easier than any option to anybody? If it goes wrong, then you can go through the trouble of getting a sim and activating it, but I think cutting is definitely worth a try.
Oky guys I already have 2 pre-paid micro sim card activation kit, seating on my table they aren't activated yet. So my question is when I got my nexus I can put the sim and transfer my number to the micro sim ?

Hi,
I am not technically inclined. I need to get my Samsung Galaxy SGHI1337 unlocked.
I am ready to pay for the unlocking service. But all my friends and families are on AT&T network like I am.
Where can I get a non-AT&T SIM card cheap to get my phone unlocked via cellunlocker.net? I only have access to an old, never-activated AT&T SIM card.
I know cellunlocker gives you 3 options, but I heard inserting a non-AT&T SIM card is the most successful route.
Thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Friend, co-worker / friend, classmate.
go to a store and tell them you want to unlock it because your contract is up in a couple months and you want to make sure you can use their service, they prob have one in the store thats even activated for testing purposes.
just a few thoughts off top of my head.
Thanks!

All my friends and families are at this point are on AT&T network. It really sucks. Asked some friends' friends....they are scared of loaning me the SIM.
But thanks for the idea of going to a store instead!! I have not even thought of that one.

I called TMobile. They said they sell a SIM card for $10.00 at the store. After that, I will need to activate the service at the store.
The problem is I am fine with AT&T since I get special discount through relatives working for AT&T. I just want to get phone unlocked so I can take it with me to Europe.
But does the SIM have to be activated for the unlocking purpose? If not, I can just buy a TMobile SIM and unlock, right?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Go to a mall or T-mobile kiosk and get a $10 prepaid sim. They should activate it where you buy it.
Yeah like ^^he said^^, I was more thinking walk into a place, a kiosk is a good idea too, when they see you face to face and you deal with a "person" they do things a bit different than give the "company response" over the phone.
Not sure of where you live, but I heard they sell Straight Talk sims at Walmart now...don't know myself. but I think they are like $7.
Also maybe an easier time walking into a MVNO, like Boost or Metro PCS or one of those where you can Bring Your Own Phone and just tell them you want to unlock it and see if it will work with their service before your contract is up. But you have better luck going in and standing in front of the person IMO.
Good Luck.
I stopped at a T-Mobile store and said I was looking to change to them from AT&T and they gave me a sim to unlock the phones with. I guess it depends on who you talk to.

Nah you shouldn't need to activate it. Just pop it in and it should recognize that it's a SIM that isn't supported (tmo based) by the network your locked to (att) and it should ask for the unlock code and you can proceed with whatever unlocking procedure your using.
I've done this on a gs1, Infuse, and a gs3. For selling purposes. An unlocked device is alot easier to sell, that's why I did it. Haven't done it to my gs4... Yet. But it should work just the same.

Straight talk has like a kit and they send you the sim cards from the various carriers, my mom recently tried to switch from at&t on her iphone (crapple) to straight talk because it would be cheaper, then the week before she was going to cancel her at&t plan, her at&t work discount went from 19% to 50% off her bill so... but yeah came with a sim kit and all, just not the unlock code

Once your contact is up they might just give it to you if you ask. Those kits would never coming to unlock code. The first reason each code is different for each device. Second I'm sure they would have a lawsuit on their hands if they did. You can always just tell them you're going out of the country and need the unlock code to use the cell phone over there.
but in the end it's so much more fun in hacking to get to device unlocked on your own. But again that's my own opinion.
99 cents for several different ones at http://pickyoursim.com/
I had Verizon at one point and I wanted a new sim card so I just went to the closest Verizon retail store and asked for another one. They asked me why and I told them that I was having network problems so they gave me a free one.

I got a Nexus 6 straight from Sprint, and I'm using my Verizon sim. The Verizon sim actually works better. I only have data with my sprint sim I can't send or receive texts or make or receive calls. I get a message cannot validate you account when trying to make a call. Everything works flawlessly with my Verizon sim.

Not to sound like an advertisement but I got my att model from bestbuy sim locked and used Cellunlocker to unlock it.
as of this moment, onlty att locks the sim. people are speculating if verizon will also do this, but its only att at the moment.
Another nod for Sprint being unlocked. I just put my N6 that I got 2 days after it hit the Sprint shelf on Tmobile and it rings for incoming calls again. Sprint has network issues and I got tired of missing calls and having cust service always start out with "factory reset your phone." My note 3 had the same issue on Sprint. 15 mins for Tmob to setup the account and put the sim in. 0$ and a better plan price to boot.

my experience with Verizon's version of the Galaxy Nexus left a bad taste in my mouth. I will be very very hard pressed to ever buy a verizon branded phone ever again. they do get my money though. That I don't mind paying for because I have signal everywhere I go and the legacy unlimited data plan.
The carrier locks aren't really a big deal in any case. $20 and you can get it unlocked at any number of cell unlocking sites.
Would rather it not be locked at all, but isn't that big of a deal....

AT&T are the only ones that are carrier locked, unless it was purchased outright or paid off, I would really double check with whoever you're buying it from and have them meet you at a sprint store to actually check everything out before you commit

Brand New Samsung Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910T White ( UNLOCKED) 32GB
Phone is brand new in its original box. The phone has never been used. All Accessories are still sealed in plastic - The phone model is SM-N910T. This is a great deal on a BRAND new - NEVER USED phone!
This phone is guaranteed to work with AT&T. There is no regional lock whatsoever

Can anybody tell me why a T-mobile unlocked phone won't work with T-mobile?
I used the phone on my carrier and it was flawless. Everything was fine till suddenly i lost phone signal. It always show "NO SERVICE" message now, but strangely I still have 4G Connection. I can use the phone to navigate, not to make phone calls.
So I swapped carriers, and the phone was working ok, phone calls, data connection.... then the thing happened again: no service, but i have 4g LTE connection.
Inserted a third sim card, from another carrier. Phone is fine, workin as it should! But this is not my main sim card and i would like it very much to work with ANY carrier. Do you guys have any idea what the problem is? Factory reset did not work at all. For the others sim cards, it recognize the network for a second and then "no service". How can i have data connection if there is "no service"?
Im really desperate because i payed a lot for this note 4... Maybe if i root the phone and flash another ROM?
help please!
Try reflashing it with stock firmware. I don't know if this is a sign of phone being reported as stolen or lost.
Maybe some more expert can answer that as I'm not from US.
Phone might be blacklisted only on T-Mobile could take longer until it goes on us canada blacklist
Same problem here. Bought the device over the internet in Norway. Seems to be it is blocked on one network but the other is working. Anyway to fix that?

If it is bought from swappa, it must have passed their imei test, which means it is not blacklisted and already been paid off. This is strange, but contact seller and swappa immediately...

I have just read the conversation at swappa, and the seller seems to be hiding something based on his answer to the other person who asked a question.... he said this::

First ask swappa what was the IMEI number that the seller submitted, check that with the IMEI on your hpone. If there is a discrepancy, then it means the seller submitted an IMEI which is already paid off, then he sent you the NEW one, which he MIGHT have declared lost or stolen, hence the BLOCK.
Good luck

I just dont understand how can i use the phone on others providers like VIVO and OI, TIM and CLARO dont accept the phone in their network, i wonder if they have a bussiness relationship with TMobile.
I will contact Tmo and ask what can i do about this.

Yes I did.. what did swappa say? Are they helping you? Also try to claim on paypal if you still have the window...
We have 2 major networks in Norway. It was blocked on the one for like 1 month and afterwards other operator also blocked the IMEI. The only solution is to change IMEI or the motherboard. Unfortunately there is no way out of this.
