I can't speak for the Rezound personally (although I'm considering picking one up once a GSM radio becomes available), but I can tell you that AT&Ts LTE phones like the Nitro and Skyrocket make use of regular SIM cards. The only phones I know that specifically use microSIMs are Apple devices and the Nokia N9

Okay I had a doubt if the at&t version of htc one x would work with global networks. If I manage to get this phone in India, will it work with the networks over here?
Thanks in advance.
It has the right frequency compatibility to work on voice/EDGE (900 and 1800) and 3G (2100) in India. So as long as you get it SIM unlocked, it should work in theory.
Also note that the One X only takes MicroSIM cards. So if your carrier does not offer MicroSIMs, you will have to cut a regular SIM to size. You can either buy a cutter on eBay, Amazon, or other places. Or you can cut by hand using online instructions. If your carrier has the iPhone 4S or iPad 3, it should also have MicroSIM cards.
Anyone know if I can just use the Sim from my Galaxy Nexus in my new RAZR HD and go? Or am I gonna fry something?
yessir, your phone uses a mini sim and the RAZR HD is a "microsim" phone. Several guides online about how to "trim" it. quite easily actually. that being said, newer sims often times offer better features and reception. if you have lte in your area your sim card may not be lte compatible, in which case you'd only get HSDPA + speeds.
Well my GNex has LTE and I'm staying on Verizon. Do I need to contact Verizon that I'm switching phones though?
The sim from my Verizon gNex fit perfectly in the sim slot on the HD without any trimming. I didn't have to contact Verizon to switch and as soon as I booted it up with my gNex's sim card it was active, no other steps required.

SO can I use the Sim card slot for an GSM Carrier? with maybe a Mod? Not sure if I can since its I think one of the first LTE phones that Verizon got. YES I know Verizon is CDMA but phones like the S3, and S4 I pop my AT&T sim in and it works 100%,
It won't work on the Charge. There have been no successful carrier changes for the Charge.

Hello, It is my understanding that Verizon phones are unlocked. have an HTC One phone that I would like to switch from Verizon to ATT. When I put a new sim card in the phone, it seems the ATT network is being blocked. Any thoughts?

Vezion is a CDMA provider which does not use sim cards (only mini sims i think for specific devices) while att is GSM which uses both mini sims and regular sims.

Thank you for your response. The HTC One has a mini sim card. I have an AT&T mini sim card to put in the phone, but when I do so it doesn't recognize the AT&T network and the CDMA/GSM setting is blocked. There is a way to switch networks. Could someone please help me out in identifying how? Thank you for your help in advance!

Verizon LTE phones are all sold unlocked and use sims. Also every model that I can think of sold in the last couple of years has GSM bands to be sold as "world phones". I appreciate the attempt to be helpful, but spreading misinformation is the opposite of that. After some more trial and error, it was an ATT provisioning issue
Is there any dual sim adaptor that would allow the use of a CDMA sim and a GSM sim in a Verizon branded S8 Plus?
I have service from Total wireless and T mobile and would like to have them in one single phone. T mobile side would be phone and message only.
I got one of the Simore adaptors and it keeps changing from CDMA/LTE to Global network and does nothng on either sim. They have gone dark on there responses now.
thanks
I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure that the electronics is just missing for a second sim so there's no adapter that will make it work. If it did have the ability to have a second sim it probably would have just shipped with a dual sim tray like other models with advertised dual sim support.
I have not seem dual sim phones for US markets only the global GSM models, I wanted to try and use CDMA and GSM networks in US.
