Okay. Here is it. This is my second thread in off-topic.
Post the details.
1. Your phone model
2. Cost and from which country you bought it
3. Your carrier along with the plans you are using.
4. If you want, you can post some other details too
Reason I created the thread :
1. People will come to know various models of phone with their costs and other features.
2. Same as above for the carrier too
Rules :
1. Keep the thread clean by avoiding posts not related to the topic.
2. No bragging and irritating people intentionally

TMobile Tablet Plan
The reason why I use Tmo tablet plan, even though it sucks, is because I already have a Sprint feature phone through which I make calls and text. I use Google Voice and the internet on the Nexus 4 to receive calls. Yeah, it's a hideous rig, but when I came to the US, my aunt got the feature phone and threw me on a two year contract. So I have made this weird setup

A few of the T Mobile stores in my area want $549 for it or $199.99 under contract.
No thank you t mobile

T-Mobile at it again Google must love them to give them phones when they still have so many orders to fill. Anyway your better getting one off eBay new for cheaper. Just joined T-Mobile and data is good and plan is cheaper. But there customer service is the worst I have ever seen and in some places calls drop or break up.
But coming from sprint were 3g data is horrible its an upgrade. I hope Google buys T-Mobile

My contact is up in December so I am considering switching to pre-paid. Net 10's BYOS program is $45 a month on auto payment for unlimited everything with non-LTE 4G data speeds. But now that I've had a taste of LTE I don't want to give it up! So the only option I can find is AT&T's Go Phone unlimited with 2gb's of LTE for $60. That is still a savings of $40 a month for me with 1gb less data than I have now.
Does anybody know of a better deal out there? Or have any reasons why I shouldn't switch to pre-paid?

I use AIO wireless. AT&T owns the company. It's a flat $55 for unlimited everything. The catch is that it is only 2gb worth of LTE and then they throttle you down to 3G after that, which is still better than Straight Talk or Net 10 which throttles you to edge speeds, which to me is unusable. They also have a $70 a month plan with 7gb of LTE. I don't pay the extra $15 because I don't spend enough time in LTE areas to justify it.

I was looking over Aio's site and in their FAQ's there is multiple statements claiming "speeds up to 8mbs". I attached a screen shot. Is this true to date? I am currently getting 20-50mbs in my area on AT&T'S LTE. Which I am assuming will be the same with "Go Phone".

Where I spend 90% of my time is in 3G(my home) and 4G(work) so I can't vouch for the LTE speeds but I do know that I usually get around 1.5mbs on 3G and 3-4mbs on 4G, both of which are enough for me to be able to stream music and video. That holds true to the speeds they report on their website so I imagine it would be accurate for the LTE as well. I've never messed with the Go phone route so I don't know about their speeds but if I had to guess, I think your assumption would be correct. But I routinely exceed the the allotted 2gb, which is why I left Straight Talk in the first place.

So I was reading that if you have an Unlimited data plan and get throttled when you reach 5GB you can change your data plan to one of the other unlimited data plan options and you'll stop being throttled for another 5GB. I see that there's three other unlimited data plan options for me on the website. Does anyone know what the actual difference is between these? Has anyone tried what I said? Does it work? Thanks!

The first one is unlimited data AND text messages for $50.
The second one is unlimited data BUT only 200 text messages for $35.
The third arrow is unlimited data only add on for non lte phones. Text message plan separate.
The final arrow is unlimited data add on for lte phones. Text message plan separate.
So it all depends on how many text you send a month. You could hurt yourself.

The 3rd arrow says LTE as well.
I don't even see unlimited data available anymore. Where are you located to see this on the website

I bet the third is for phones, and the fourth is for tablets.

Looking to get rid of satellite internet since T-Mobile has very strong LTE access at my house.
Does anyone use a Nexus 6 as their home internet gateway? I have 2 desktops and a laptop that I would be connecting to it. As well as a Google Chromebox.
If you do use it for your home internet, I know you can edit the sqlite code to not use the tethered data.... and take advantage of the unlimited plan.
The question I have is if you use this method, are you happy with it?
I have a truly unlimited plan from Verizon and usually do my gaming from my phone so my other devices don't take bandwidth and I don't lag. I also have a verizon MiFi to watch Netflix and for the tablets and laptops around the house .
I don't have issue with it I just don't think T Mobile really has "unlimited" they will throttle you.
But to me using my phone is no different than using the MiFi. I would much rather have high speed internet at my house but that's not going to happen anytime in the near future unfortunately.

well crap.
how much internet do you use would you say on your laptops and everything? I do have a satellite with a 25gb cap possibly getting installed tomorrow.
Honestly no idea because it's a business account that my work pays for and it's unlimited I don't have access to what it's using it doesn't show it on the device.
But I have burned over 40 gigs on my verizon account this month via the phone.

I have SERIOUS dreadful speeds with T-Mobile . I usually get 2mbps download and 1 upload. (Yea thats horrible) all around Denver the highest speed I've ever had while on LTE would be 10mbps. I'm seriously thinking about leaving tmobile for VERIZONs badass service. A friend has Verizon and he's speeds are consistent. Check out the screen shot from here at work. It went from bad to absolutely worse. Can't loud crap. And it isn't the ROM fault. Calling T-Mobile won't fix nothing because there techs are seriously retarded. I've tried what I could to no avail. Maybe there's some kind of tool or something I could use. Speeds have been horrible Ever since I got the note 4 and I even pay the extra $20 for what they call "unlimited" I could take my $80 and go with Verizon and pay an extra $40 for TRULY UNLIMITED, EVERYWHERE. I have a phantom netgear router thats 60 Mbps no matter how many people are connected or what they are doing so going from steady 60 to less than 1 its ridiculous I got a fast phone with horrible service. I could have the fastest phone in the world. But under T-Mobile it becomes the slowest!!!
