So I switched to pre paid and I'm loving it. I get the same speeds as on a plan,(my area sucks) but unlimited data, for less money. 2 thumbs up!
What carryer you on? What was the specific plan?
So that we may all have a lookieloo and benefit from your shared joy
AT&T $50 unlimeted go phone. Buy a crappy phone activate it and then put the sim in your thrill,but you gota activate it on the crappy phone. Don't tell them your using a smart phone.
Or straight talk for 45/mo
Just order an att compatible sim card from them and your good yo go... full 4g
And so I have spoken it.. and so it shall be.
What r u running I just got one on prepaid stock it doesn't work on data.

I'm running thrillseeker. If you activate the sim through the thrill then att knows your on a smart phone and want to charge you extra for data. activate the sim through an old crappy go phone and it will work.
Never knew that!
Just a quick question, If I got a Skyrocket. Activated on a crappy phone, then got the prepaid thing for AT&T would I get 4G LTE speeds if my area has it or no.. Thank you
IDK? Not sure how all that works? The pre paid card says 3g???

I'm thinking about buying a captivate for my wife but she is on the Tmobile network... I am aware you can unlock the captivate fairly easy to be used on Tmobile but I was wondering if you lose any functionality in doing so. I know that some 3g phones will only get edge if unlocked for the opposite network. (like the iphone for tmobile only gets edge). Thanks in advance
Also!! My gf is getting a new phone that can't have data. But! I was wondering, if I give her my extra captivate(after I fix the cracked screen) can I unlawful ock it and give it to her without it asking for a data plan? And sorry op, but I didn't want to start a new thread

If your phone is rooted you can unlock it permenently by installing galaxy_s unlock by helroz from the market as well as busy box. If you don't want the root option you may call at&t for that.
1.root your phone (search one click root for galaxy s and download to your pc)
2.download galaxy_s unlock & busy box
3.run busy box then galaxy_s unlock you must allow both apps with super user permission.

I have a captivate on tmobile and I am able to use the unsupported phones data plan for $10 per month. It's only 2g, but the point is that the network doesn't pick it up as an android phone and I'm fine with that. I doubt they'd make you get a data plan if you just used it without explaining anything because as far as I can tell the emei isn't registering with the network as an android phone.

Good news, I finally got the captivate to unlock and accept the tmobile sim. Everything seems to be working fine so far. No data on the plan but using wifi til I add data. One thing I'm really curious about is.... Now that the phone is unlocked and working, If I flash a custom rom (say cognition) will I lose the "unlock" ?
*edit* forgot to say how I did it... I just simply flashed back to stock 2.1, master cleared,rooted, installed busybox and galaxy unlock app, used the #2 method with the unlock app and it worked. PATIENCE IS KEY! ===> It takes a good 2-4 minutes for the tmobile signal to kick in so it may seem as if the unlock failed but it just takes alot longer than the at&t signal to kick in.

Does anyone have any idea of how to fix this? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated...
You need to call them to have your data plan properly provisioned for LTE and the 4g SIM. That will fix it.

Actually BB is retarded for not advising you of and providing you with the proper SIM and data plan.
You should be able to do it all on the phone but going into the store might be a good idea especially if you have unlimited data.

This is to fix Mms message on metropcs flashed sprint galaxy s 4 your phone most already be flashed to metropcs with working internet, Flash the zip in recovery and reboot, mms messages should work from first boot. This will last thru a factory reset.
Edit: I was ask to add some details as to wat the zips doing and wat I do. I edit the mms-config.xml in the stock Mms.apk/SecMms.apk to settings from verizon which work for metropcs, I also use an apns-conf.xml that I edited for metropcs. the zip will mount data and mount system, it will delete Mms.apk/SecMms.apk and Mms.odex/SecMms.odex, it will delete dalvik-cache for Mms.apk/SecMms.apk, it will delete the telephony.db file in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/ which countains apns. it will replace Mms.apk/SecMms.apk with the one I edited for metropcs it also replaces the apns-conf.xml in /system/etc/ which countains the default apns for the one I edited for metropcs (on first boot the phone will create a new telephony.db with the default apns countained in this apns-conf.xml, that is why this fix lasts thru a datawipe/factory reset). For more details take a look at the updater-script.
for the 4.3 script, flash the zip - reboot to system. Then open dialer and dial ##3282# hit edit enter spc then go to more then lte apn settings and click the circle on the right of the global roaming apn to activate it then hit home and all should be good
if you have issue where messaging app has default android icon use root explorer go to /system/app long press on SecMms.apk select move hit back hit back again go to /sdcard and paste SecMms.apk on sdcard, it should now show the up on sdcard with normal icon long press on SecMms.apk select move hit back go to /system/app and paste SecMms.apk back in /system/app and reboot phone should now show normal messaging icon
I am not responseable for anything that happens

Hang on...I must clarify. As much as I love to profit off of Metro flashes, we need to get the facts straight.
Flashed phones to Metro will not work nationwide. Boost will. Metro has better talk & text in their coverage area, but their data can either be equal to or slightly slower then Boost (depends what time of the day you're on the network). We also JUST got 3g here in the Tampa Bay area, and we're a huge market, go figure.

ive had very good luck though if i may say so myself. i have traveled to florida new york san francisco and alabama and gotten very good coverage on my flashed s3 from verizon and im suing the 3033 prl in atlanta. its faster than i could have hoped for. i have heard though before that flashed phones do not work well outside of the state theyre flashed in but aside form that metro itself has bigger coverage than boost and sprint. and now they are merging with t-mobile although im still not sure how thats working out because theyre rolling out city by city certain thing such as hartford dallas baltimore and i think boston.

now a days its all lte anyways so no one uses 3g
Then you would have been the first. I've been flashing in this area for over 2 years at least, and none of my fellow flashers in the area got 3g besides 1 tower near University Mall.

I am in the same boat as you. I am in the LA area, and I had good signal in my neighborhood too. However, I can't connect with LTE either, even when I stand next to the tower.
The most weird thing is: I went to the store fore return. When I hit the store, my phone works with LTE outside of the store. I have to go home. Now my phone still has no LTE connection.
It looks like that it is Sprint or HTC software issue. I had no clue what to do though.

Call Sprint customer care and have them check your UICC ID under settings/about/phone identity. I had exchanged my phone and this number didn't update and caused me to not get 4g when others had it. Its the same number as your SIM ID and is required to match your phone. Seems to be a common issue with setting up the HTC One since is has a SIM Card. They may argue with you that its for International only....tell them I understand that but you have seen others with this problem and that their UICC ID numbers did not match on the account and that its required to make 4g work.
Ok, thanks

Yea you have to call them with confidence that you know what the issues are. And in markets they have not launched yet just explain that data is very bad on this phone and you get a lot of dropped calls. Then just ask them to please verify the numbers on your account with the phone....and especially the UICC ID.
I live in LA as well, and I only get LTE in a few different specific areas. Should I call them to make sure all of my numbers are correct? Is there anything else I can do?

Oh okay. Was there any tax? Sorry for all the questions just want to know all this before paying to unlock sorry. Did the apn settings automatically do itself or you had to set them? And is the signal strength good for you?

No tax for me, but I live in Oregon, and theres no sales tax. so i dont know about that.
Yeah the APN settings changed itself to tmobile's LTE settings. kinda weird but it did.
Signal strength is based on your network, not really your phone, but I get LTE 80-90% of the time from the places that I go to (mostly in cities and urban areas)
Please press thanks if I helped.
Oh okay I'm definitely going to be ordering the unlock code later then. Thank you very much

no, ATT and tmoble share the same blacklist.
sell it on ebay for like 500 and buy another note 3. (remember to include that its bad esn or else you'll be charged with fraud)
I never sold anything on eBay before. Is it easy to put a phone on eBay?

Also when the kitkat update comes to us will we get it even though we'll be on T-Mobile on a att Note? I'm asking because when I had a att S4 on t mobile before I didn't get a update that was going on thru that time it was a few months ago. I even tried Kies.

if course you wouldnt get over the air update... you need to update it manually...
and if you're too lazy to do it manually, you can always plug in a working ATT simcard for it to update then switch back to your tmoible sim card.
Oh okay. Doing it manually is safe right? And can you please show me proof of the unlocking if that's alright. Thank you

Before paying for unlock code always check with provider phone was from. If phone is over 90 days old t mobile gives you code for free. att will also but your account with them must be in good standing.
