Yes sir. I reccomend you get the Nexus 4 from the play store, get the t-mobile sim card from online.
Go to the google search monthly 4g prepaid plain. XDA forums doesn't let me link the site -.-. Sorry.
Scroll down to the 30$ plan, 100 minute, unlimited text, 5GB DATA up to 4G after that it's capped down and it's unlimited. I use that.
They don't offer it in stores, make sure you buy the sim and activate it online.

I'm using that plan right now on my GNex, speeds are pretty OK, I usually get about 5-6 Mb/s if I have decent coverage.
I think you can get the sim card and plan in Walmart too.
Is it possible to roam on straight talk or tmobile prepaid plans? I live in an area with poor cell coverage
Solavei a T-Mobile MVNO.
They include roaming, 4GB of data, unlimited calls and text. Also conditional call forwarding for Google voice works.

Remember the nexus 4 will get double the download speeds in most areas on T-Mobile with Napa dual carrier. The galaxy nexus does not support dual carrier.
I have them now on my gnex. Getting 5-7 Mbps.

Great video! I've been doing research into the different MVNOs myself and this video did a great job of answering all the questions I wanted answered.

Does anybody know with certainty whether solavei gives full tmobile speeds? I had the $30 plan for awhile and got 21mbps at my house. Would solavei throttle that at all or should I expect to see the same speeds?

How to signup Nexus 4 with Solavei
I tried to signup my Nexus 4 with Solavei but their website says that my phone's IMEI is not compatible and does not let me go further.
I talking to one of their independent reps I was told the company hasn't updated their log of IMEI #s to reflect the new Nexus 4 phones; however, the nexus 4 WILL work on their tmobile network just like any other GSM phone, especially since the last generation nexus is compatible. The IMEI check on their website is only so that they can ship you the correct size sim card (It is a micro-sim in the case of the Nexus 4). Here are the steps I took:
1. To begin signup of your Nexus 4 use this link.
2. Enter your zip to confirm coverage
3. [Important] Use the following IMEI # to get past the first step: 353022055115650 . This IMEI ensures you get the micro-sim card instead of a full-size sim.
4. Solavei asks if you want to port a phone # or have them choose a phone # for you.
5. Solavei asks for the usual personal information
6. Solavei mentions that it will be shipping you a "sim" but does not go into detail whether it is a micro-sim or not. Don't worry. The IMEI # you used earlier ensures it is a micro-sim.
7. Finish the process and a micro-sim card will be shipped out to you within 2 business days
Hope that helps. From what I was told by several reps, Solavei customers get the same 3g/4G coverage as regular Tmobile customers, but speeds begin to be throttled after 4 gigabytes of usage. 4 gigs is personally plenty for me considering the cheaper price.

Where do you see 4GB at on their site? All I saw was that it was unlimited. They seem no different than Straight Talk which is even cheaper than Solavei at $45/month and from my understanding with ST the cap can go as high as 7GB or more..probably depending on local congestion.

A couple different reps have told me that they throttle after 4 gigabytes. 4 Gigs of 4g speed is plenty for me considering I also use wifi at home and work. And living in South Florida Tmobile 4g is very good. It all depends on your area.
My contract with AT&T ends in March and I plan on leaving them because I get no signal at school or at work. I will probably end up signing up with Solavei.
Thanks for the info.
I'm really interested in switching to this phone and the T-Mobile $30 plan. I've been using a Motorola Triumph with Virgin Mobile @ $25 a month for unlimited text/data and 300 minutes, so the T-Mobile plan seems almost the same but with better coverage and less minutes (I don't even use my minutes).
I also have no idea what this Solavei thing is either. From what I'm guessing, all I need to do is buy the Nexus 4 from Google (or anywhere else that has it unlocked), buy the T-Mobile SIM card from their site, then sign up by buying a $30 plan/card from Walmart or Target. Does anyone have detailed instructions like what ztmike posted about Solavei? Or should I be signing up through Solavei anyway?
Thanks a bunch, guys.
Ok, some quick testing reveals the following:
- Putting an activated T-Mobile SIM (from my N4) in the phone generates a "Login Required" message. Logging in with the account credentials for the N4 displays the account management page (without CSS for some bizarre reason) and does not provide any assistance.
- Activating the SIM provided with the N7 and placing it in the N4 generates the same "Login Required" dialog.
- Putting an activated AT&T SIM in the N7 allows full access to the network, including LTE.
I am really hoping I can switch the T-Mobile SIM between the N4 (which is my backup phone) and the N7. I don't want to pay another $30/month for data, or carry three LTE capable devices.

When I had my Nexus 7 2012 GSM (tilapia) I was never able to get it to connect via the T-Mo $30 / 5gb plan and always was given the reason that the $30 plan is for voice enabled devices only. TMo appears to restrict based on IMEI. I had to switch to their mobile data package account instead. It is $25 for 1.5GB. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I hope someone proves me wrong as I'd love to get my new N7 2013 that arrived today onto the 5GB package as well!

I doubt its going to work as Google has provided the IMEI's to T-Mobile as they will supposedly be selling the device in October. The best bet now is the 4.5 gb allotment for $40 minus the $10 rebate so it comes out to be the same $30 as before minus 500mb.
If an MVNO is offering a plan with T-Mobile LTE, you may find that the SIM is swappable just fine.

I do remember for a fact that with both Solavei and Straight Talk T-Mobile, reports were successful on the 2012 Nexus 7 3G. You can get a phone/data plan on these MVNOs and swap the SIM into a tablet without any trouble. However I believe that neither MVNO supports LTE on T-Mobile at this time. Straight Talk AT&T just started offering LTE but they have a data limit around 1.5 GB/month, whereas ST T-Mobile customers seem to report no caps at all.
Well, as the band use to say to Harry, that sucks.
I am not a big fan of capped data plans. My AT&T primary line is grandfathered unlimited data, and my T-Mobile secondary line is unlimited data (but throttled after 5Gb). It has come in handy when I've had to reset my phone while on the road, downloading all my apps and data over the wireless broadband network.
If I could find an app that would allow me to text from the N7, I would switch my AT&T SIM to the N7 and use the T-Mobile SIM in my primary phone. Calls not answered on my AT&T line get routed to Google Voice, which will ring the T-Mobile line before going to voicemail. I tried SMSDroid, I can send but received messages only show up as alerts.I may try GoSMS later today.
Or, I'll just tether on the phone... although that negates the advantage of having the LTE Nexus 7.
Thanks everyone!

I have the unlimited plan $70 for "unlimited" everything it also comes with 500mb of tethering. T-mobile just bumped up the bundled tethering up to 2.5gb for unlimited users. But the $10 rebate is for postpaid users so prepaid won't work.. But it basically chops off $10 off a mobile internet plan that's added on to your main account. So the 4.5gb mobile internet plan which is $40 I believe drops to $30 with this rebate. But I look @ it like this you lose 500mb but that would have been covered under the tethering allotment that was just raised to 2.5gb so it turns out being more if that makes sense. If not let me know and I can try to explain it again..

Well there is no guarantee. The Straight Talk TOS has a vague fair use policy. In practice users have found that AT&T gets throttled above a certain cap, and then an absolute cap. They have almost never found ST T-Mobile to be capped. Anything could change. If there is no LTE the tablet will drop to T-Mobile HSPA+ which is still quite fast.
EDIT: Oh! Another obvious one. You could try a BYOD SIM from MetroPCS (running of course on T-Mobile). That does support LTE and maybe it will allow you to use it in both phone and tablet. SECOND EDIT: OK probably not. Tablets are against the MetroPCS TOS, and every device you use your SIM with has to be added to your account or the SIM won't work in it.
Just curious if anybody uses the $50 dollar Net10 plan. I'm on the T-Mobile $30 plan currently but the coverage isn't what I want it to be and 100 minutes keeps my calls short. I know LTE won't work unofficially supported because Net10 doesn't use band 4.
Basically just asking if anybody has any thoughts/experiences with this setup. I know at&t coverage is far superior where i live than T-Mo.

I looked into ST but they removed at&t sims so you can only use T-Mo towers now. Both net10 and ST are owned by tracphone so they should be similar.

Using Straight Talk AT&T. Works fine for me. Never tried Net 10
Been using ST for 6 yrs now. getting great service with ST ATT on my 6P.
I also have used Straight talk for many years. I have used ATT one, VZW one and T-Mobile one.. I'd say the ATT 5gig one is the best bang for the buck.. All though if you go to their site and go to tablet Sims you can get 1gig for 15$ and 2gig for 25$, no taxes or fees and they let you port your number and us it in a phone no problem.
I'm using a AT&T net10 sim. Great service on this phone compared to my OneplusOne which had horrible service with net10. Edit: Also I pay $95 a month for my wife and I both on unlimited 5gb data plans.

Yes, I have used the VZW SIM on straight talk with the 6p.. It has several limitations. Number one is there is no VOLTE, so that means no data while you're on the phone with the 6p. Wi-Fi calling does not work, unless you use something like the hangouts dialer for outbound only... the phone will also not roam to partner networks such as US Cellular. And last but not least, the speed is capped to 5 mb x 5 mb up & down with a high latency usually more than 150 MS.. I would def recommend the AT&T SIM with straight talk.. Only limitation there is you also don't have native Wi-Fi calling. But all the other limitations don't exist with the AT&T SIM.
Great info, thanks!

Not on one of the big 4 here in the USA with your Angler? Since the Nexus 6p is mostly not carrier subsidized, I'm thinking this is a good place to find out what MVNO's people are using to save money.... If so for you, please tell us who your with, what plan your on with them, and why your with them!! And anything else you care to share both good and bad...
In the last year I have been on the following MVNO's...
Ting - Sprint
Ting - T-Mobile
Straight talk - T-Mobile
Straight talk - Verizon
Straight talk - AT&T
Google Project Fi
Cricket - AT&T
Page Plus - Verizon
Verizon Prepaid
AT&T Gophone
And have signed up for Harbor Mobile AT&T and Red Pocket Mobile Verizon. Haven't received the Sim's yet for the last 2.. Let me know if you have questions on any of these. Will be happy to report my results
In addition to that, I was in contract with the real big red dollar sucking Verizon and also was on the real big Orange AT&T on a company business plan.

Been using Straight Talk AT&T for about 3 years now.
Reasonable price ($45), 5GB of 4G data, and a strong AT&T network keeps me with them.
I switched from Sprint post-paid on December 2013 back when I bought my Nexus 5 and decided to go with Simplemobile to pay half of what I was paying with Sprint. It all went well up until 5 months in when all of a sudden I lost data connection for the better part of a month, as usual with MVNO's the customer service is flaky so I couldn't find out what was wrong.
I then switched to t-mo $30 plan but the whole 100 minutes per month had me cutting people's conversations short or forcing them to use wifi calling apps. It became too much of a hassle so I decided to go with Straighttalk using t-mobile's service. I used them for a whole year without any issues, however I kept looking for cheaper service and that's when I discovered Cricket. For $35 a month (taxes and fees included) I get everything I need and since I don't use much data, 2.5GB a month is more than enough for me.
Once this month is up I'm going to try project Fi, since I use less than 1GB of mobile data I would probably end up paying less than with Cricket.

Yup, Customer service is the number 1 complaint with MVNO's.. If you live where Sprint and T-mobile have good coverage and you aren't a heavy data user then Fi is an excellent choice!! I currently have it on one of my phones and really like it except that where I live both Sprint and T-mobile have less than ideal coverage. Also, FI has excellent customer service!

Im on MetroPCS I can confirm Wifi Calling works great although you have to delete all the apns then change the APN on GPRS to MetroPCS from fast.tmobile... To fast.metropcs...

Cool! Post some screen shots of your APN settings please!! One way to test to VoLTE is check and see if you have mobile data while on a phone call. What about roaming to AT&T where T-Mobile has no coverage? Any luck there? T-Mobile had finally turned up LTE in my area and I'm considering using them in my back up phone. I have FI now, but to expensive if you use lots of data and FI has no mobile data while on the phone.
