... what the hell is a nano-SIM? Is this some advanced Apple technology?
How did I manage to read over ten reviews of the this phone on major tech sites and not one mentioned that it takes a special SIM card? So, here I sit with a new phone and no way to use it.
The phone sure looks pretty in the box.
I guess I'm still using the HTC One and Lumia 1020 for a while. (Please no one bid on my HTC One on eBay for a few days.)

I came from an HTC One and purchased a sim cutting tool and micro/normal sim plastic adapter. The cut sim works fine in any phone using adapters. Total cost was under $10.
My T-Mobile version came with a TMO nano sim :laugh:
You can go to your carriers store or even call them and they'll send out a Sim for your phone. With att its no charge.

I'm not sure which version you bought, but my Verizon dev edition came with the nano-SIM already installed. You may want to pop the SIM tray out and check.

I cut mine with scissor and filed it down with a nail filer. Works perfect
Just cut off the surrounding plastic around the chip Of course make sure you have that little notch though. That's what I did
Here's a handy template if you want to try cutting the sim down yourself: http://www.airportal.de/nanosim/
Both AT&T and T-Mobile retail stores will transfer you over to a nano sim without any charge. It takes about five minutes to do. With AT&T, they just gave me a card and I went home and called customer service. Ten minutes from start to finish once on the line. She verified everything with me and stayed on the line until test texts and phone calls were made.

Both of my Dev edition Moto Xs came with nano SIMs installed. Still, ended up cutting down the micro SIMs from my Dev edition S4s. The S4 Developer editions didn't come with cards. Had pulled those cards from couple of old GNexs and at that time just stuck them in the S4s and fired them up. Didn't want to risk messing up the unlimited accounts those numbers have. So, with nano-to-micro adapters the S4s and Moto Xs can be SIM swapped at will with affect on the unlimited status of the lines.

as others have said. just cut it down with scissors. the front side(notch), cut to the metal and cut notch . sides. cut to the metal. back side.... you are going to cut through 3/32" of the metal. you can cut everything i touch big and go from there.
unless you cut it too small... you cant really screw it up. i have cut several of them now and all of them work great.
I got the Dev edition which is why there was no SIM. I went to my AT&T store the next day and got a nano-SIM for free. It was just a bit of a bummer for the unboxing.

Essentially the title. I'm looking at potentially doing Straight Talk with the Moto X, and I'm wondering if it would be better to go with the ATT version, or with an unlocked edition such as TMo or the GSM Dev edition. My understanding is that the ATT one would need to be unlocked first, but are there any other differences I should be aware of?
Also, can someone outline the process of setting up the phone for Straight Talk?

Using AT&T MotoX currently with Straight Talk AT&T. I would have preferred T-Mo's version so I could unlock the bootloader. But they both work in AT&T Straight talk (friend has the unlocked T-Mo version and it works on his). I can't say for sure if AT&T MotoX works with Straight Talk T-Mo LTE, but it should at least get their HSPA signals.

That's good to know.
Is there any extra steps involved in using the ATT phone vs the T-Mo phone with (ATT) Straight Talk? I've heard it has to be unlocked first which either requires $30 or rooting the phone.

If you get the ATT Moto X, you have to use the ATT straight talk unless you unlock the phone to use Tmobiles towers. That's how I understand it.
I just activated my Moto X on ATT straight talk 2 weeks ago. No issues so far and I get 4g LTE service in my city.

They do. I have the tmo X running off of straight talks att Sim card. It picked up the 4.4 ota within 5 minutes of being on the network.
For op. I'd recommend the T-Mobile version just for the fact that it's factory unlocked. You don't have to worry whose towers you're using on straight talk since you're able to pick up LTE on with one as long as there's signal.
Second reason, you don't have all the carrier bloat and crap. I personally think it looks cleaner without the at&t apps.

Very few MVNOs like Straight Talk offer official nano SIMs for sale. You (or someone else) make them by cutting down a larger SIM, and that can be imperfect. Officially nano SIMs are also slightly thinner than other SIM sizes, so you have to carefully sand them down although many don't do that and find things work OK. I purchased a NET10 nano SIM from a reseller and have had similar problems although sometimes a reboot fixes it and sometimes a single reinsert of the SIM has fixed the problem (a couple times it's taken several tries). Until I run the phone using an official nano SIM I'm reluctant to say my phone has a problem. Given the new ATT family plan pricing & per line $100 incentive, we'll probably be moving there sooner than I was planning, and ATT can supply a real nano SIM.

Interesting... Was this a retail kit from Walmart? On their website, they only offer micro and full size. I even sent them an email asking if they could provide a nano SIM and got the answer back - no. They said that what you see on the website is all that is available. Of course they aren't known for the customer service expertise. If the activation kit came off ebay or from some 3rd party, they may have pre-cut it for you.

Doesn't show up when I go to either their site or walmart.com. Attached is a screen capture of what I get. Maybe it's zip code dependent, but that would be weird. Given they sell iphones it makes sense they should have them. Could you reference the URL where you've found them?

Funny thing is when I called straight talk they said was a T-Mobile Sim. So basically they don't even know what the have. It was clearly blue and in the attached slot of the kit.
That's no lie, they are completely clueless on what they sell. I told them of the packaging mistake and all they would do is sell me another card.

Hello all. Though we know the N6 works on VZW and units are beginning to ship out, I am reading reports (android police)VZW may not activate new nano Sim cards for active subscribers because it wasn't bought from VZW.
Specifically, a phone purchased directly from Motorola is presenting issues.
As more Motorola units ship, has anyone had a problem? My current phone uses a micro Sim. Sure, I could cut it but am afraid I might screw it up.
Please share your experiences.

The new one needs to be a 4ff nano SIM and it does not work because it needs to be activated and provisioned on your account. You call the number and give them your old phone imei and they activate the SIM. Then place it in the n6.

I told them on the phone that I bought my wife a 2013 Moto X and that she needed a nano sim card for it and they sent it out right away.
When I received it, I used it as a template to cut down my wife's micro sim to a nano sim. It was easier that way.
My super duper cutter arrives today. When my phone arrives and if i screw up I can always get a new micro Sim and recut it instead of going through the VZW crap of trying to get a nano. The store is right down the street from me so not an issue.

Hi Jerry, I recently purchased a new device that requires a NANO 4G LTE SIM Card 4FF. My current device uses a micro-sim. Can you send me a new NANO sim to my billing address?
Not sure if it matters, but the line for the device is **********. It was purchased off contract.
Jerry: I can definitely send you a nano-SIM. We also have them for free at our corporate run stores, but if mail is easier, my pleasure.

It's the same sim card as the droid Turbo
Jerry: perfect, thanks

So I went to Verizon today to try and activate it and they told me that I needed to have a phone that used a nano sim to activate it, which means droid ultra, droid maxx, droid turbo, and the newest droid razr. No iPhone nano sims will work in it from what this rep told me. I have a friend with a droid ultra, so I'm gonna take him up to verizon and have them activate my sim in his phone and reboot it to fix the mm issues with my sim in it, and then move the sim over to the N6.
Big red is definitely not making this easy for us.

There is another thread on here as well as Droid Life saying it will work. I have an adapter so I can put it into my current Micro SD HTC one phone with adapter, activate it and then use the nano SIM in Nexus 6 according to the thread.
Edit::: I found out the iPhone 6 does not have NFC so Verizon is sending me a nano for the HTC m8 which will work. So, you are correct that technically an iPhone 6 won't work totally because of the NFC. Thanks for pointing that out!

All Sims are the same. Don't worry about it
I went into a Verizon retail location today (Village At Orange - 1500 E Village Way, Ste 2205 Orange, CA 92865) and they were worthless.
I explained to the representative what I needed and they told me they couldn't do it unless I activated it in store. I explained that would be a pain, but that I did have an adapter and was willing if need be. They said fine.
The representative then went over to a table with me and said that my device (Note 3) was not a nano sim device. I explained again that I had an adapter and he said there was nothing he could do. I asked if he could call someone and he told me he wouldn't. I then asked for the manager's card.
On my way home I called Verizon and they're sending a card out. It'll get here Monday. If my phone beats the sim I'll just trim my current one down. I'm disgusted at the service I received at the store. The representative acted like he couldn't care less. Really, really frustrating.
I have a Nexus 6 I bought from a 3rd party. Its a TMo variant so its Sim unlocked and whatnot. When I put my VZW Sim in I get LTE and such. I can't call nor send texts messages from said device. From what I get from threads on here I should request a new Sim card and stuff from VZW but if that doesn't work how would I go about fixing this issue. I mean I've already tried the whole calling the Verizon and having them elevate the case but that doesn't do anything. Eh. I mean I still have my M8 so I've been using that but it seems like this phone just doesn't want to work on VZW.
Are there any special things I should do to my phone to make it work. Or any special APNs I should use
Thanks

Please could you describe your question in the thread title? Maybe something a bit more descriptive like "using Verizon sim in TMO N6 - no calls or sms"? That way you will target the people who may know the answer whilst saving people who don't the time spent on reading the thread?
Thanks for your consideration
The phone is going to be blocked via the IMEI.
I don't see it happening on Verizon. Maybe after they roll out the Nexus on their network we would know more.

The N6 is carrier unlocked except the AT&T version and that's easily remedied, it's got to be APN related. Try a ROM that includes all of the Verizon APN's like Chroma and see if that helps.
If you have a SIM that was already activated then there probably won't be a problem -- it should work fine in any N6 (except I hear the AT&T is network locked).
