No, not on the international model (G935F/FD) at least.
You can only have LTE connectivity on one slot while the other remains on 2G or 3G.

only getting EDGE

put in sim from ATT N1 where I was getting full 3G (CM has it as H), and now, with same sim, I only get EDGE in Atrix. New sim they included gives me nothing... just a strikethrough the data icon area.
What gives?

Maybe you dont have HSPA+ in your area? Only guessing, btw.
Att is having many issues with the atrix and inspire. They're working on these issues now.

You need a new sim cards as this is a 4g device. Might be the issue.

Wrong. Any 3g ATT sim card will work, there is no technical differences. The only time moving forward you will need a newer simcard is for when LTE (real "4g") launches.

you have to have 4G sim card and also your account must be provisioned in the system with a new 4G feature code.
I work for ATT.

So do I and I can also confirm that was what I read on an internal training presentation on the new 4G phones, including the Atrix.

so essentially we will have to use the sim that is sent with the phone?
You don't need a 4g sim, pop in the regular 3g sim...that's what I have in my inspire...getting hspa+

you must be getting a symbol with H+ and that is all.
for actual speed use new 4G SIM and get provisioned with new feature code by calling customer care or going in to the store.
Spent 85 minutes on the phone with tier 2 support. They have no idea what's going on. We tried old sum and new... no luck. We changed options in *#*#4636#*#* with no luck. We reset to factory default with no luck.
Its stuck on EDGE. My account is provisioned for this phone with the correct data plan and its simply not working. They want me to go to a corporate store tomorrow and swap for another.
Any other ideas short of a swap?

no one is getting HSPA+, it's being backhauled until March. I don't know why it says we have H+ in the status bar though
backhaul isn't just going to magically happen when march hits, it will happen as soon as the backhaul hits the site and is up and running, which is a never ending thing that has been going on for the past year or so.
EDIT: Oh and to the OP, more than likely something is wrong with the phone if other phones pick up 3g just fine.
But the best thing is, the ATRIX an the INSPIRE 4G will not be getting LTE HAHAHA AT&T FTW

SIM

I looked at my atrix's sim card and it says 3g on there, what do you guys have? Do you think this could be a reason for my un impressive dl speeds?

att is handing out new ones that are for 4g when it comes out but you can get them now at a nearby store

Wait what? i ordered my atrix last week and it also came with a 3g sim card but what your saying is theres a 4g sim card?? do you have a pic of one?
Your sim card should have no effect on data speeds. All they do is give the phone the carrier information they need to identify with a cell tower under your phone number, and store contacts. The difference between 3G and 4G cards are purely cosmetic.
i think not. cuz i had questioned about the 4G sim card a while back and she told me that they will eventually roll out for compatible phones.
Lol AT&T '4g' is just 3g only a little faster. It uses the same bands and APNs that 3g uses. Any 3g sim will work on a 4g network in a 4g phone at 4g speeds.

What is the difference between the P7500R(Rogers) and P7500M(Bell) hardware wise? I know one is Rogers is GSM and Bell is CDMA. But does the P7500R and P7500M have the same radio hardware but the tabs are just locked to their prospective networks? Can I get a the 7500M and unlock it and flash a AT&T radio and get 3G data speeds on on the at&t network or will I just get edge speeds?
They are the same. The bell version is hspa not cdma. They are identical in every way, except they are locked to their respective networks. Either one will work fine with att, once they are unlocked

StraightTalk and multi-band GSM: do they "mix"?

If I get an AT&T compatable StraightTalk SIM does it also pull from T-Mobile's towers for voice (but not 3g ofc)?
In other words, is the difference between the two SIMs (ATT/TMO) only for HSPA coverage, or HSPA and GSM?
Planning on getting my mom an Infuse 4G but I want to make sure that she'll be getting as best voice coverage as possible.
If you get her a Infuse,just get the at&t sim card from straight talk and everything will function just as if it were running on at&t

If you use a T-Mobile SIM you get T-Mobile coverage. If you use an AT&T SIM you get AT&T coverage. It's as simple as that.

Unless the phone supports both bands then you can use either sim card

Yes but you won't be able to use the AT&T towers if you use T-Mobile from the way I understand it.

This is the conclusion I've reached after much research.

Damnit.
Well ATT coverage is great in our home area so I'll just stick to that. Thanks guys.
I was hoping that if an ATT sim was used and no ATT voice coverage was available it would try to roam to a TMO straighttalk service.
Get two SIMs and use Google Voice.

Maybe you need a 4G sim? If i remember correctly when 3g came around for orange i had a 3g phone but my sim wasn't 3g so therefore i had to buy a 3g sim card in order for the 3g capabilities on my phone, Unless you ring up 3network and explain to them your having trouble getting 4g on your device,
They'll probably tell you you'll need a new sim or something
According to the site it's a software upgrade from three that's needed
Sent from my C5303 using Tapatalk
There's just not much reliable coverage yet, there's no need for a software update on an android phone, if it's capable it will get it. I often get an lte connection when I'm out and I did no such update

Did you set network mode to LTE(preferred) in mobile network settings?

According to site like I said
How can I get 4G?
To get 4G when it comes to your area you need to make sure you’ve downloaded all the latest software updates on your 4G device. Your 4G update is not labelled as 4G, so we recommend you download all software to ensure you have access to 4G when it comes to your area.
