Is there a way for me to purchase UK apps on the Market if I'm in the U.S.?
Mainly interested in AppManager Pro.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=512595
I can see AppManager Pro just fine, I just cannot buy it since the price isn't in dollars.
You can't? I've bought foreign apps before. Prime was a foreign app and I bought it the day paid apps went live.
It just tells me invalid credit card (AMEX). Perhaps I need to deal with the CC on this?
Perhaps you have no credit?
j/k
Ok, so it's the CC. I switched to a VISA and it worked just fine.
You need to pay your cc bill.
So im on an Even More Plus plan (no contract) and Im in a flexpay payment plan. I want to change to a post payment plan so that I can utilize google voice as a voice mail client and a few other things. I keep getting the run around when calling tmobile, some tell me that you cant have a post payment plan off contract and other say you can. I keep getting disconnect (by them not me) when i get someone who says I can mix a post payment with a even more plus.
So perhaps someone here can help me, can you have a post payment plan off contract (Even more plus) ?

I am looking for the very same answer. I was on the phone with T-Mobile and they told me I have to wait 6 months before I could even attempt to change my account. My credit is not worthy I am told.
Any further answers on the T-Mobile No Contract Plans is appreciated.
Miss using my Google Voice services directly with my Nexus One on T-Mobile.
Yes... I am not on a contract on an Even More Plus plan, and I pay at the end of the month.
To switch over from flex pay to post paid with the no contract even more plus plan you need to have had your service activated for at least 6 months, your account must be in good standing with on time payments each month, and you have to be on the list they have for people that are eligible to switch (you should be on the list if you meet all the above criteria).
When I called up customer service to make the switch they said that I was not on the list yet because I was in my 6th month of service. They said the only way I could make the switch is if they run a credit check and give me a new phone number. I argued for quite a while that I would not switch my number but would be willing to have a credit check run. I got no where with that so I went to my local Tmobile store.
The people at the tmobile store were very helpful and came up with an elaborate work around that involved them being on the phone with customer service for over an hour. They ran my credit, created a new account for me (with a new number) and set it up on post pain even more plus. Then they canceled my old account, ported my old number to the new account and now I'm good to go.
In hind sight, if I had known it was going to be such a difficult process I would have waited another month to wait for my name to show up on the eligible list (they were pretty sure my name would show up at the beginning of my 7th month of service).
If you are already on the eligible list then the process should be relatively painful. I would recommend going into an actual tmobile store; they seem to have the ability to accomplish many more things, especially in unique situations like mine.
So, yes you can switch from no contract prepaid even more plus to no contract post paid even more plus one way or another so that you can use conditional call forwarding and Google Voicemail.
Good to know that flex pay doesn't allow google Voice because I use it religiously while I am at work with no service. It's nice to get missed call notifications via WiFi and able to listen to the messages without having service.
Nice feature.
That's actually why I left T-Mobile. I couldn't use GV, which is incredibly cool. That and it took forever to lock onto my location, even when outside. This was all on my N1. Went back to the evil that is AT&T.
I am able to Israel gv with even more plus with no problem. They only thing not allowed is to have forward calls

Yup, and I meet all the criteria, and perhaps just going to a tmobile store will be better then trying to call 611.
Ok, so on finally getting a rep that speaks clear English I was able to find out that I dont qualify for post pay because my 7 months of perfect payment history don't meet the 6 months requirement. Huh? So I guess i gotta wait a month cause their eligibility only updates once a month and they are always behind by a month?
Anyone else have experiences with this ummm....predicament?
I just want AT&T's DataPro 2GB plan. No voice, no SMS, just data. Here are a few questions:
-Will I be able to use the (imported) Galaxy Note's IMEI to activate the SIM card, or will I have to acquire some other IMEI for activation? Are there legal issues associated with borrowing an IMEI for this purpose?
-Will AT&T try to force me, at some point, to purchase voice services as well? I'm worried that things will change once they start carrying and selling the Galaxy Note themselves (with contracts.)
-If this is the case, will T-Mobile be any different? There's always the option of going with a data-only provider like Clear, but it's a bit more inconvenient because I'd have to carry around a dongle.
I found this post. It looks like Spartan2x is doing exactly what I'm looking for.

I use a ATT iPad SIM and use the device as a Data Only phone. You can get a Tablet SIM for $25 a month that gives you 2GB's and $10 for each add'l GB.(I have a old unlimited though)
I used google voice and GrooVeIP to handle voice/text and its crystal clear for me.
I typically get 6mbps down and 1.5mbps, but I have gotten 8mbps down and 2.5mbps up at the start of my driveway.

So this is all that's really left of my questions:
a) how does one go about getting a tablet SIM with AT&T?
b) will AT&T allow this, or will they eventually force all Note users to pay a smartphone plan?

Google "Buy a session AT&T" and that should help ya!
FYI, T-Mobile 3/4G isn't compatible with the Note at this time (unless and until they come out with their own version).
Thank you, Jade Eyed Wolf! That is exactly what I was looking for.

When I entered my German Note's IMEI at the Buy a Session site, the only option monthly option I was presented was the outrageous rate for "computers/aircards/other" of $50 for 1GB/month. I found out the hard way that AT&T only offers the data-only domestic "tablet" plans with specifically approved devices, e.g. iPad, Galaxy Tab, etc.
It seems the only way to get a decent data-only plan with AT&T (unless you're legally deaf) is to sign up using an "AT&T approved" tablet IMEI. You could do this and then use that SIM card in your Note, but that route seems like it could be considered fraudulent; definitely if you don't own the tablet that you borrowed the IMEI from.
Furthermore, I read through AT&T's Terms of Service and they have a provision against using the data service ii) as a substitute or backup for private lines, landlines or full-time or dedicated data connections; So it would seem that using Google Voice over 3G on AT&T is in violation of the agreement.
This is very frustrating. I guess the only legitimate options (aside from submitting entirely to the will of the carriers) is to either become some sort of wifi gypsy who wanders from access point to access point, or to carry around one of those hotspot dongles. Hopefully in the near future someone like Google will step in and provide reasonable access to a 3G data service with a few less of these ridiculous provisions, restrictions, and fees.
Got my SIM card yesterday from T-Mobile.com
Got my Nexus 7 GSM today.
Cut up my full sized sim to fix into micro sim slot. Worked fine.
Inserted SIM into tablet. Got signal. So far so good.
Nexus 7 doesn't have Phone.apk or MMS.apk on launcher.
Fired up Wi-Fi, went to go Play Store.
Installed Go SMS Pro.
Set up my sim card online. Activated with $30 100 minutes, UL txt, 5GB plan.
Had to retry "nearest city" options and zip codes, but eventually got it to work.
Got my SMS notification on my tablet saying account is good.
Refilled for a month.
Got my SMS notification of the refill.
Setup a T-Mobile account with my prepaid number. All good.
0KB used.
Reboot tablet. I get "Sign into network" which is a html redirect page.
Every page redirects to sign in page. Can never sign in.
Research online.
Turns out it's detected as a tablet. IMEIs are apparently flagged by T-Mobile.
BAH!
I'll root and mess around my /efs/nv_data.bin and reboot back, but so far :-/
Edit: No /efs folder

That really sucks.
While I'm probably going to go with the $15 AT&T plan, the $30 TMO plan you referenced sounds like a perfect one for people who want a lot of data, SMS capabilities and some minutes for light talk usage. I was hoping it would work. Have you tried talking to T-Mobile about it?
Thanks for sharing. Hopefully there is a solution.

I have the $15 AT&T plan (actually $10 unlimited) that I'm using for my Galaxy Note 10.1. I would try swapping around but the sim sizes are different. I'm pretty sure that TMobile will say that the Nexus 7 is a data-only device and won't let me do it.
Google has stripped WiFi tethering, MMS and Phone from the device and I'm sure it's no coincidence.

"Stripped" might be too strong a word.
The non-3G versions never had any of those functions. I think it's more likely that they simply chose not (or forgot) to include them in the 3G version.
SMS actually does work, but inbound only (according to rumors) by default. But you can apparently use an SMS app to do outbound fine. There is another thread discussing the phone mod. Apparently a framework change can enable it, but no one has been able to test whether it works or not yet to place calls.
I imagine it would be trivial for a developer to add tethering support, though I don't see the need personally. Most people only care about tethering a non-3G tablet to a phone, not the other way around.
What $10 AT&T plan? Is that the "share your data" plan or an independent pre-paid one?
I don't need a lot of data, but I want to be able to have some if necessary. I also don't want to pay too much for it. $15 seems reasonable, but $10 is better - assuming I don't already need to have a phone with them.
Did you register your sim to N7 IMEI or normal phone IMEI? Wonder if that makes a difference.
Did you ensure the APN was what phones use for data rather than tablets/modems? Tweakker on the market will set it for you if you are unsure.

I did all 1s a couple of times but I when I successfully activated I used the N7 IMEI and changed the "nearest city" option. I strongly doubt that was the issue since other people who have this problem with the TMobile branded Springboard say the SIM works on other devices. I can't test this since I have no other device (tablet or smartphone) that takes microSIM.

I checked them all manually. They were a little different than standard APNs (had a masked password and server field), but I modified them. I was still redirected. I'm pretty sure it's IMEI detection. I'll try it anyway. Edit: Tweaker is not supported on Play Store. I'll have to search for the APK

On any AT&T family plan with shared unlimited messaging, you can add unlimited data for $10 on dumbphones. If you don't have shared unlimited texting then it's $15/mo per dumbphone
Also, TMobile will let you use your voice plan package if you accept to pay an additional $15/mo to use "Mobile Broadband" which is using it on data-only devices (laptops/tablets)

Can you download it from the app store and upload the apk?
I'm confused. You put your SIM card into the device after cutting it down and once you booted it up, you had signal? You saw the H and everything? But you could not access tmo's data network immediately? But then you logged into the play store with wifi?

That's correct. I've already been shuttling a cut-down T-Mobile SIM between devices. When I have the SIM in the Nexus 7, I get a 3G or an H, but then when I try to make any web requests, I get redirected to My T-Mobile. (In addition, Android prompts me with a "Sign into network" item in the notification area.) I can log back into My T-Mobile with any browser, but that doesn't accomplish anything.
I then connect to the Play Store over WiFi but it won't let me download Tweakker.

Thanks guys for letting us know that Tmobile has blocked this. I kind of expect this since they have been cracking down...on the switching SIMS between different devices types.
Specially with them in touch with google on Nexus 4 and also were preparing to partner with Google to sell the Nexus 7 3G with a Tmobile SIM (like Google is doing with ATT) according to some leaked Tmo news pictures..., We should have expected this already.
It was a few months back they blocked the opposite: using data broadband plans SIM in unlocked phones like Nexus. We used to be able to do that.
Still it's unfortunate. Thanks for saving me to try the same and be stucked with a SIM i can not use effectively. To the OP; you can still use the micro SIM in a regular device without an adapter. You just need to position it right and may be try a couple times. I did not this until I saw somebody do it. Since then if I have cut a sim, I can still use it without an adapter. Just make sure you position it right....by try and error...or by inserting a regular SIM and picking up where the metal needs to touch the phone.
For all if you really want Tmobile...you can use the Special Walmart plan...which gives 60 days if you buy the $35 or $50 plans. To a point it may be equal or better deal than the 5gig $30.....depends if you do not use too much data...you can use: $35 for 3.5 gig for 60 days....or $50 5 gig for 60 days.
That's the way I may go or I may go the way of Ultra Mobile MVNO which is coming up with pay as you go @ 4.9 cents per mb in January. This is expensive but it's 4g hspa+ pay as you go to use only while needing fast data in areas where no wifi is there or my freedom hotspot has reach is fast 500 mb limit or no Clear coverage is being picked up.
We should also try to see if Tmobile is doing the same blocking while using MVNO....plans. If that's the case then the above Ultra plan won't help. In order to get better data deals we would need Voice/data plans from mvno..But that in itself is not useful unless we're able to enable both voice...and data on 3g nexus. Ultra has plans with data or voice only while data costing 2 cents per mb. Or Straightalk/Net10 $45 plans if only the voice can also be enabled.
MVNO do not usually have good deals on data only plans.
On the other side ATT broadband plans are interesting for 3gb for $30. Not quite 5 gig but better coverage.

Can you share some more info on this plan?
I just signed up for the AT&T $15 30day/250MB plan. But this sounds a lot better!
I'm generally around Wi-Fi, so don't need a ton of data. But I'd rather pay (effectively) $15/month for 2-2.5GB then 250MB.

well......doing some reading I got this from Walmart....Not good news. Now I understand why when I switched my SIM from a USB stick device bought at Walmart to a USB stick sent by Tmobile it kept blocking me and redirecting me as with the OP.... It took multiple support calls to Tmobile tech reps...to no avail. Until the recreated my account with free data posted to it and with the regular 30 days limit. They told me I could switch back to the Walmart special at the end of the month...but never was able to get it done....I ended up selling the USB stick....so it seems there's IMEI checking on SIM activated with the 60 days specials....so this won't help on Nexus 3G
Access 4G Internet on the go with the T-Mobile $35 Prepaid Mobile Broadband Pass. It offers 3.5GB of data usage and is good for 60 days only at Walmart. Pass is only eligible on broadband devices purchased at a Walmart after 6/1/2012. The pass includes no activation fee, no annual contract, no credit check and no overages. And it works with any new T-Mobile Laptop Stick or mobile hotspot purchased at Walmart. If you regularly surf the web, check email and update your social network, this card is a good choice.

Ironically, as soon as I posted this, I got the shipping notification at 3 AM CST. But Im still sad about the tmo thing not working
I had hoped that I could use my 3g Nexus 7 on the $30 tmobile plan. I was thinking of registering on the plan when I traveled. I guess the only hope is that someone figures out a work around or tmobile offers a decent data plan. At least, I was primarily planning to use 3g overseas.
It looks like I will be teathering my N7 for for data when away from wifi. This is a pain. In addition, I could have waited and ordered my 3g N7 from B&H Photo and avoided shipping and tax.
I'm sitting here working and I pick up my phone and apparently there is another OTA available. It is 220.6mb. I'm on rooted KitKat. I'm on T-Mobile and have a D959. Is anyone else getting this OTA?
Here is a link to an awesome apk call "OTA SNATCHER". Just download from play store. Install. And when you have that notification about an update, open the " OTA SNATCHER" apk and click snatch OTA. It will pull the OTA and zip it if not already. It will load it to batakangs (a very talented dev) database for all to use build off of

But I figure its a patch for those of us on 4.2.2 with custom recoveries and/or those that are rooted on 4.4.2 not long after we got the boot loader unlocked on the RAZR Maxx HD Verizon sent out an update that burned the qfuse used to get our boot loader unlocked. So be cautious

I'm wondering if maybe it's a patch that enables VoLTE in my area (Long Island, NY) The service has been spotty in my basement for the past week and a half but within the last three days it has been back to what it was before. I also see an LGLTECall.apk file in the zip which may confirm just that. I have been talking through HD Voice calls for the past month and a half and I have been able to make phone calls and use data while on regular 4G as well.
Thanks buddy.

I did the update on my rooted G Flex running 4.4.2 and so far there is nothing wrong. I still have root access and can still use TB, G2 Exposed, and other root-needed apps.
I'm on TMO outside of Chicago, and no update here either, running rooted 4.4

Confirmed. I went back to stock KK, took the OTA, rooted with towelroot and all is well. It is indeed a VOLTE update as I now have that option to turn on/off voice over LTE in call settings,
So is VOLTE better then HD voice or the same. Sorry I'm confused. lol
I'm thinking I need to unroot in order to take the update when I a rooted stock Rom (D-Fuse)

Just go into a T-Mobile store and they will get you sim you need for free. If they try to charge ya just say customer service said it would be free. If you use Isis you can get a buck back if you spend a buck or more. I think it's just when you use the phone to pay and not the card though.
Does this update turn on Wideband LTE if your in the market?

This update enabled VoLTE. Wideband LTE is enabled already on virtually every LTE handset.

I guess the T-Mobile tech I just talked to doesn't know what she's talking about then. She said after I did the update and after 5pm today I would see faster speeds. I'm in Columbus, Ohio getting around 20mbps which is great though.
