Hi all,
ATT has number sync in USA where you can share the same number when on mobile or watch.
In Canada, Bell and Rogers don't have that service, so you have 2 SIM cards with two numbers which is dumb.
Any way you can make this work (Pixel 2 with LG sport watch) so they can basically share a SIM and number?
Thank you
I guess no one has figured out a way?

Ok I have a moderate grasp that it is definately possible to use the Note on Straight Talk. I recently read the only other thread on it here in these forums. But I thought to start one here so that the information is available for others who need in its own post. This is also, of course for my benifit.
I am about to purchase an International Note from Amazon or Newegg this week. I plan to use it on StraightTalk wireless. I know specific APN settings are necessary for it to be usable to its full potential. So i have a couple of questions:
1) What is the correct APN settings for Straighttalk using the Note?
2)When ordering the Sim, so I chose unlocked phone or ATT compatible phone?
3)I currently have Straighttalk service on a dumbphone. Is that Sim usable in the Note? If it is, will just be able to change my plan to the Unlimited all for $45 and get the same service as I would if i ordered the unlocked or att sim?
4)I also saw some loose mention of a Data cap in the other thread but to my knowledge Straighttalk clearly says unlimited. Which is it?
Thank you in advance.
imho, the best thing to do is call your provider? anyway, for comparison, i purchased my note from company A with their own sim. Note is unlocked. im using company B's sim on my note without any problem.
SO...
Anyone using it know the exact settings and if i need to purchase new unlocked sim from them or if i can use my old sim from my original straighttalk dumbphone?
you can find the info you need here

those are the settings most of us are using.
I didnt want straight talk to set me up on tmobile so I ordered the at&t sim..i would suggest the same if you have good at&t coverage cause you'll only get edge speeds on tmobile.
Is Sim Card in the Moto W418G same as the "AT&T Compatible Phone Sim Card" from ST??
Hello my fellow XDA-Developers,
Just have a quick question for anyone who can answer, I am coming from a Black Samsung Galaxy S2 [which I love] (on BS Sprint <--- who i HATE... no wait... who I DESPISE...) to my (sexy white) Unlocked Samsung Galaxy Note, that of which, arrives today! IM SO HAPPY ABOUT THIS!!! ;-)
My question is... is the Sim Card that comes with the Motorola W418G (www shopstraighttalk dot com/bpdirect/straighttalk/PhoneDetails.do?action=view&productVariantExtensionId=13092337) [which I had to purchase, because I really needed a phone at the moment) the same Sim Card as the "AT&T Compatible Phone Sim Card" that can be purchased separately online from StraightTalk for $14.99?? (www straighttalk dot com/ShopSims)
I would like to know this because I am planning on taking the sim that I activated with the $45 Unlimited plan yesterday, out of the Motorola W418G and putting it into the Galaxy Note that will arrive today... I am assuming/hoping that everything will function correctly (Voice, Text+MMS, & Data) once I update the APNs appropriately... This should be ok... right?? Or are they different Sim Cards??
Worst Case Senario... if they are different Sim Cards and I am forced to purchase one from StraightTalk separately... how would I go about putting my account onto that Sim Card and not the one that came with the Motorola W418G??
Thanks in advance for your help!
Best Regards,

I believe the answer to this is "no", but:
I have access to an AT&T SM-G900A that is not being used. My daughter is about to move to Germany for an extended period.
First, can the phone be used in Europe at all?
I certainly wouldn't want to pay AT&T's probably-exorbitant rates, so then: can we buy a SIM card there to use in it as is? (pretty sure the answer is "no")
If I unlocked the phone (by buying an unlock code), could it then be used with a Europe-purchased SIM card?
I suspect this is all more trouble than it's worth and I'm better of just finding a used unlocked GSM phone of some sort.
Much thanks.
if you can use it abroad unless you unlock it first.
I have a galaxy s5 att and I am using it with another carrier here in south america.
only bad thing is that the wifi hotspot will not work for being a simcard from another operator, only work by usb tether.
It's working well. I bought an AT&T Galaxy S5 from USA and now I use it in Romania.
The WiFi hotspot is not working, but all the other features work very well.
Probably, after the bootloader will be cracked and we will have the opportunity to install a custom rom or an unbranded rom, the hotspot will function as well.
Enjoy your gadget !
All answers are correct. I was formerly in the U.S.Army and took an old T-Mobile HTC Dream over to Kuwait with me. I called T-MO and got a sim unlock code for free. Upon getting overseas I established service with a GSM carrier over there and popped in my sim card and whallaa! My phone completely worked in Europe and the middle east.

Will this be possible?
I would like to use an upgrade on my wife's phone on Verizon then take my N6 to Sprint.
I have reasons for this i will not go into but.... It essentially lets me get a subsidized phone though.
All North America Nexus 6 are the same model. The question will be if Sprint setup their database to accept foreign IMEI's into their database on activation.
Hello anyone from the UK buy a nexus6 from one of the carriers (ie Vodafone etc) rather than Google play?
If so was it network locked to that specific carrier? I mean it's a nexus?
I'm having issues with EE sim and a Vodafone bought n6 need guidance.

In Canada, if you buy one from a carrier, it is network locked, you could get it unlocked though. I am certain the ones from Google are not.
Just ruled network locking out, by trying my wife's EE SIM card in the N6 which got full signal 4g.
Must be a new sim activation issue, so back on the phone to customer bleeding services again.

Hey all. Just wanted to see if any one could answer this. Since all the major carriers sold the same model then each phone should be able to work on every carrier. More specifically I have a Verizon gs8 wanted to know if it would work on sprint or even t mobile. I did pop a sprint sim in here and it wasn't working but I didn't mess with any settings. I'm also running unlocked firmware. Does anyone have this phone running on sprint or t mobile? I did call sprint but they said my imei wasn't present in their database so they couldn't garuntee it would work. Thanks

I have a Verizon Samsung S8, that worked fine with T-mobile with few issues.
- WiFi calling can't be enabled on non Verizon Sims
- Voicemail would by default direct you to Verizon voice mail service
- Kept getting an error every time I restart the phone that the sim is not from Verizon
