Click on "without a service plan" it will state they are carrier locked.

No they aren't. There are multiple threads to confirm this. I have a Sprint Nexus 6 and it works on T-Mobile with no problem.

Not true. I have a "Sprint" N6 and popped in my AT&T sim and it works fine.

Has anyone been able to confirm this if purchased from Amazon?

It depends on what batch you got. Only the initial Amazon batches were unlocked. The later Sprint Amazon batches are sim locked AFAIK.

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....

I just paid to get mine unlocked so I can sell my nexus. I really don't like it

Probably the paying part to need to unlock it.

As of today, if you are not under contract with the carrier that the phone is locked to, or owe them money due to an EIP, they have to unlock the phone.

it's still wrong information, mine is with a contract through sprint, it's still fully unlocked, I can put any sim in and I'm good to go, t-mobile was the same way, at&t was the only one that did a lock and we still have yet to find out about verizon

HELP
im looking to purchase an AT&T Nexus 6 from clist TODAY to use on Sprint. I got a sprint nano sim and was wondering if i can activate it. I heard you give sprint the IMEI number without the last digit or something. Has anyone done this? Anything i should know? im searching and googling and havent gotten a solid answer before i drive an hour to meet this guy. thanks in advance

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

Will Verizon try to interfere with Moto Pure?

Not seeing Verizon being amicable with this device the more I think about it and would not be surprised to see Verizon not part of the network. They are big, arrogant and like all the bloat to help drive data mining and other service revenue the bloat gives them. The precedent this sets if were successful is not in Verizon's best interests of bloat bait. Sure, you would think Verizon is still raking in the monthly service fees, but they love their bloat.
The Droid Maxx 2 (aka Moto X Play) has added to my perhaps overly cynical view of the situation.

Verizon isn't selling this phone, so they can't interfere with it. Motorola is selling it directly, and as far as I know it's already a fact that it will work with Verizon. If it's like the Nexus 6 at launch though, it will work fine by swapping SIMs, but it may not work immediately to activate new service on.

Received mine yesterday. Active SIM recognized VZW, but wouldn't activate. Tier 2 tech support had to manually enter, maybe take 8 hrs, so they say... :/

Original uncut nanoSIM from a Moto Nexus 6 (AMZN/VZW), which I didn't keep - horrible experience all-around.
While the Moto XP so far gives me some reminder, I like the Moto suite a lot. Have had some limited heat from
charging the battery, but that has always happened to me first time around. It goes away after a cycle or two
of discharge/charge. VZW is still clueless re: BYOD IMHO, and I think I knew more than the in-store rep w/ 11 yrs exp.

They might not be able to interfere (as much) but they certainly don't seem any more prepared for BYOD, IMHO. They didn't appear willing earlier today, but I held their feet to the fire,
esp. since I'm off contract in two months, which I reminded them of - as well as the fact that this device works with any major US carrier.

Saw an unboxing and the guy had no issues at all with VZW and then there's this to add credibility...

Got mine this morning. Took it to Verizon (don't have a nano sim). The rep couldn't register the IMEI in the Verizon db, but he activated a nano sim with another device, and after putting it in mine I was good to go.

Did he activate using your old device imei number or he simply used any imei number so that system registers it ?

I was able to use my Straight Talk Verizon sim with my Moto X. When I talked with ST support they claimed it wouldn't work. I wasn't able to register the Moto X on the website with my IMEI it was forcing me to GSM activation. I activated the sim using another phone's serial, popped the sim in my Moto X, it got stuck on the activating wireless screen, but when I rebooted it connected to Verizon LTE and voice.

I popped my SIM in from my droid Maxx. Initially it worked, but then didn't. Then went to a corporate store that swore there was nothing they can do. Will next try an authorized retailer. GRRRRRR!

This all sounds like its going to be a pain in the butt to get activated on VZW. I have a N6 that i was planning to sell and if i just swap the sim dont think ill be able to sell it. VZW is always a pain in the butt with this stuff, i only wish there service wasnt better then most by me

I went to Verizon and they tried activating but no luck. Came home and cut my micro sim from my HTC One M7 and popped it in. Working just fine now.

They WILL need to activate the sim using a diff phone's imei. Just tell the rep that's what needs to be done, if he doesn't attempt it himself. So far no issues.
Sent from my XT1575

After the corporate store debacle I went to an authorized seller store. They were much nicer. He suggested we take the SIM out of my Maxx, put it back in the pure and then turn the pure back on. Voila, so far it has worked. This morning when I put the SIM in I didn't power down and then turn the phone back on fwiw.

[Q][New Verizon Activation]

Has anyone activated the MXP as a new Verizon contract? I have read thorough the post and have seen mostly people that have already had Verizon contracts and just put that Sim in the MXP.

I'm wondering the same having only used GSM phones. So far I'm using my AT&T SIM but believe Verizon has better coverage in my area (western CT).
On their site I started here (scroll down) with the 'I'm not with Verizon' button, then chose 'I have my own device' on the popup and got to a page I can't directly link that asks for my device ID/IMEI, and then tells me "The phone associated with the Device ID you entered is not compatible with the Verizon Wireless network."
I would like the 3 GB $45/mo plan and am assuming that's with no contract and should be available for the Moto XPE, right? I can go to a store but I'd like to know the facts first to avoid getting derailed by unknowledgeable/uncooperative staff, though I'd prefer doing it online if I can get past the phone ID barrier. Maybe they'll update their approved phones soon but I'd like to shift over before the 20th when my current month ends with AT&T. Should I try calling them and has anyone done that successfully?

Yeah. I am thinking we have to take it to the store and have it activated. Tell me how it goes and what you decide.

I called the number on the website and got a sales associate who also took my IMEI and said it's not currently 'registered' (the word he used) on Verizon, so I can't get a new account using it. He couldn't/wouldn't give any clear idea on if/when it will be but did say the new plans are no-contract now. My guess is a store will tell us the same thing, so won't bother unless we hear of success stories from others and how they did it.

Or simply buy a regular sim card for htc m9 on ebay or wherever and then chat with them or call and ask them to activate without device,tell them you are using non-vzw device which works just fine on Verizon,or some people had success at corporate stores with managers activating,or if you have a good premium retailer try that as well.

Need an imei of a device that takes a nano sim that is allowed on VZW network. I wasn't making a new account but I needed the nano sim. Wife's device (galaxy s6)is on the account and had the VZW rep use her device imei to issue me a simcard. Works perfect.

This is why I think using a prepaid Sim might work, because since is under Verizon's BYOD, Bring Your Own Device, that they will allow it to be activated. I am then wondering if I then ask for a normal contract if it would be simpler.

There's only 3 places to buy from: Motorola, Amazon and Best Buy. If you're buying from Best Buy, they can activate it for you. I believe with Amazon, you would have to go to your carrier just like if you bought from Motorola.

Pretty irritating
I bought the prepaid sim pack yesterday & spent an hour and a half on the phone with them and can't get it activated. Does anyone know what to do? Apparently the device isn't in the system according to the techs I spoke with even though you can enter it in the device compatibility and it says it is

Question regarding 6P on Sprint

Hi there!
I'm a current Sprint customer with the HTC One M7 that I bought from Sprint back in 2013 when it came out. I'm a bit hesitant to buy the Nexus 6P from Google simply because I'm not sure what exactly the "process" of its activation will be. I've never had an unlocked phone before, so the way of getting it activated is quite the mystery for me, especially considering Sprint is a CDMA carrier. I know the device works on all major carriers, including Sprint, but if it isn't coming directly from Sprint, then how do I go about getting it activated to replace my M7?
Thanks - I know it's most likely a quick procedure, but I want it to be as foolproof as possible!
I'm not quite sure if this has been answered before, but I did some searching and I came up empty. Again, I could be wrong, and if this question has been answered before, my apologies!

Contact sprint, ask them to send you a sim card for the 6P. You can then activate it through sprint.com. That's all I did, pretty easy.

When activating your unlocked Nexus 6p on Sprint, can you use WiFi Tethering / Hotspot...or do you have to pay Sprint separately for the service.

Call Sprint and tell them you bought a nexus 6p they will send you a sim card in one day it will be at your door. I ordered mine (free) and it was here the next day. Get sim and phone throw sim card in phone and go online and log in to your account hit swap phone and follow directions. Takes maybe 4 minutes tops and you don't have to speak with anyone super easy!! That's what I did.

There are many of us here. I just got the 6P Monday and it works great on Verizon. I was already a customer so all I needed to do was swap sim cards but I'm sure it won't be a problem getting a new card when you sign up.

I am with Misterxtc on this one, I did not contact Verizon or anything all I did was pull the sim from my old phone, pop it in my Nexus 6P and I have been having just as good service as I did with my GS6.

I pulled my old VZW SIM and no issues. Even swapped back and forth between it and Project Fi

I had a big issue getting the Nexus 6P on Verizon and I was already a customer. Basically neither Verizon Corporate store or the tech support hotline could fix the issue. My old phone had a micro SIM so I needed a new SIM but the new SIM could not activate in the Nexus 6P. Basically after some research I realized that I had to activate the new nano SIM in another phone. One option was to buy an adapter that allows the nano SIM to fit in my old phone. I was impatient so I carefully lined up the nano SIM in the micro SIM slot so it made proper contact. I called Verizon and told the rep. I have been dealing with this for days and that I needed her to just trust me. So I had her link the nano SIM with the old phone and after that, I was able to activate the SIM on the old phone. Once it was done, I just inserted the nano SIM in the Nexus 6P and it worked.
I would imagine that new customers will have same issue. You may want to see if a friend or relative has an old Verizon phone. If the old phone is micro SIM and uses a SIM tray, you will need the adapter. My old phone(LG G3) had a removal back and I was able to line up the connectors.

Here is the official Verizon Wireless webpage which will allow you to check the IMEI(option 2) and for me it said my Nexus 6P was not compatible. This was end of December.

As a few other said, if you already have the properly sized activated SIM card and/or an approved (read: sold by) Verizon device, you should be OK. If you have any friends who have an old VZW device that they aren't using and it uses the correct size SIM, go to Verizon and activate new service with that phone. Once the SIM is registered to your account, just put it in the 6p and you should be fine.
If you can only get your hands on one phone, it might be kind of janky but you could activate the first line with SIM A in the borrowed device, swap SIM A to a 6p A then put SIM B in the borrowed device, activate and place in 6p B. I guess it would come down to who you are dealing with at a Verizon store or on the phone if they'll let you do all that jockeying around. If the rep wants the sale badly enough, they should be willing to work with you. If they don't want to, I would gladly take my business to another VZW store and let someone else get the commission.
The last thought I had was that Best Buy sells the 6p. I don't know if they can sell it on VZW, but they have a slew of phones there, so you could use a display handset or another phone there to activate the SIM and then purchase the 6p?

The device is whitelisted, there's no hoops to jump through. Verizon will activate the device.

No problems activating.
Since I was already on Verizon, I just dropped my SIM in the phone. BAM! Up and running.

Not totally true in regards to the 'no hoops' comment. Yes they will activate the device but not if you are on unlimited data. They refused to activate mine without changing to a new plan so I was forced to cut my micro sim to a nano. I went back and forth for weeks with different reps, even a supervisor. No dice. This was the first week of January.

I pulled my nanoSIM out of an iPhone 6 and dropped it into a 6p with no problems.
Not sure they will activate if you don't already have an existing account -- my in-laws tried that with a phone they purchased separately without already having a Verizon account and Verizon gave them a ton of ****.

I came from an LG G2, which has a micro SIM, and I have Unlimited Data. I bought my 64GB 6P from the Google Store on January 2nd, received it and activated it on January 7th.
Verizon didn't have any problems whatsoever activating it in store with a brand new Nano SIM. I am out of contract.
Tethering works natively right out of the box. It's been a breeze so far!

thanks for all the responses. we will be going to Verizon store tomorrow. hopefully we dont get hit for too much of a deposit.

I just popped the sim in. A friend I have at Verizon claims that they should be changing their policy on that particular issue soon. Hope he is right. I've been on verizon my whole life and for the last year and a half I've been on a NON-VZW Nexus 6 and now a Non-VZW Nexus P with no issues, except jealousy from the verizon guys when I walk in. From what I understand the will not give you a sim still. So you'll just need to pop it in. I'm sure we'd all be happy to elaborate on methods of getting a sim if yours is too big

I just upgraded from an S4 today. Had some trouble cause the nano sim would not work on the s4 (with an adapter). Apparently the s4 cannot use it at all. Went to the VZ store and was told sorry, nothing we can do. I called VZ and got a great rep who took my info, told me to insert the nano sim into my new 6p and whala, it worked. I have to admit I was a little afraid I just bought a $500 door stop.

No problem here either. Walked my Google purchased 6P into the local Verizon store and they had the SIM chip installed and activated inside of 5 minutes. Quick and free.
