Mytouch unlocked phone ATT sim

I have an unlocked MYTOUCH phone.. When i put my ATT sim card with an IPHONE data plan in there, i cannot surf.
Will only tmobile data plans work?

Tmobile uses different frequencies for 3G (1700/2100Mhz) but you should be able to use the edge/gprs network since they use the same bands, you might also need to the add the right APN settings for the ATT network

You don't need to use an iPhone data plan, you are going to use medianet on your mytouch, so you need to use medianet settings. Please note those settings different from the iPhone settings and you will get huge charges with an iPhone plan. I have the $10 medianet unlimited package with my phone. Also this should be in the general section not android development.

It is true that you can't get to the 3g networks because ATT runs off a different frequency than tmobile but you can get the Edge networks. To do this however you have to change some settings. You have to go to settings and then wireless controls. Then there should be a Mobile Network Settings option then go down to Access Point Names. Then you click the menu button and click New APN. Then fill in this information.. for the MCC and MNC don't put stars look up your country code.

now you should be able to connect to the edge networks and be able to surf the web.

Okay, I already have an IPHONE data plan on my SIM card which is why i was trying that, but nothing worked... so I want unlimited internet, so which ATT plan will work for the MYTOUCH?
and s2pdpyro, thanks for that detailed info!!! Works on EDGE... so no way to use ATT 3g

Sell it and buy a Rogers Magic phone from Canada, which works on ATT 3G.

wow so thats my option...

Easiest method is to set the APN settings yourself.
You can also load a custom rom which is auto configured.
You will not get 3G but you can get Edge, otherwise go with a Rogers Magic...mine is working fine on AT&T 3G.

yeah definitely go for the Rogers its worth it, edge is unacceptable in 2009.

SO true

That is so true. Thats why I have the Rogers Magic. Tmobile had no 3G in my area for a while.

ok, so let me ask you this... i will exchange it for a rogers phone.. so now i can use it on my ATT account 3g.. However, which plan do I get and how much is it monthly?

anyone know?

I have worked for both of the companies of said phone/plan. They are different networks. I suggest using the medianet plan on the myt3g, OR see if you can trade your mt3g for a Rogers Magic.
Or, the option I am going to wait for (seeing how I have T-Mobile currently) is to buy the new NexusOne when it's available.

no, but what i mean is are there any data plans less than $30/mo unlimited for 3g on att?

Pick a voice plan (cheapest is 39.99/m), add unlimited data 15$/m. Thats the cheapest option on ATT.
Dont tell them you have a mytouch/rogers phone, just ask for a sim card on its own.
If you can get a family member on board, you can get unlimited data knocked down to 10$/month.
Merry Xmas.

Ok but will that unlimited data for $15/mo be 3G or EDGE?
Merry Christmas to you too!

Your MyTouch runs on 1700mhz spectrum while ATT runs 3g on 850mhz. So you'll be running on EDGE not 3G.

Then why am I being told to get a ROGERS/MYTOUCH so I can utilize 3G???
I am so confused.... Now you are saying i can only use EDGE..
Please someone clear this up.. phones cost over $400... i dont want to buy it and be stuck on EDGE..

anyone????

/sigh.... If you get a Rogers Version of the Mytouch (which is called Magic) you will be able to use 3g services. On top of that Rogers Magic has a different amount of Ram vs. MyTouch. You will be flashing 32A roms instead of 32B roms. If you feel you are confident enough to flash the Radio and SPL then you will be able to use 32B roms instead of 32A roms. Searching Google does help as well fyi.

regarding data plan from t-mobile USA

hi there, if i set up data plan using a phone that required data plan for 10 bucks from t-mobile USA, (says, a nokia nuron) Can I switch to another smartphone that I brought somewhere else (says, HTC HD2) and still be able to use that 10 bucks data plan on the HD2 and not using the expensive 30 bucks plan? I already tried putting on sim card into the HD2, and on my T-mobile page, my phone status is still show that i am using the nuron. do I have a chance to keep the 10 bucks plan if I change phone to HD2?
PS:
OK, I just called up t-moible USA to add data plan to my bill. she said the 10 bucks data plan isn't available anymore and all i can add is the $15 for 200MB or $30 for unlimited. of course I said NO and asked her to transfer me to a consumer loyalty dept. From there, I told the rep that i am using a Nokia Nuron that I got from signing a contract w/ them and let me add the $10 data plan to my bill.
So now, i have to wait for couple of hours before i can access the data plan. I think i will change phone back to the Nuron and see if the data works then change back to my hd2 and see if it's working also. I HOPE TODAY IS MY LUCKY DAY!!!!
edit: OK, I just got access to the web with the web2go data on my HD2 (android)
now, i have 3 different icon on the data, H, 3G, and E...iH>3G>E in speed wise right? and if i have both wifi and data turn on, does that mean, wifi will always be used first if there is wifi connection?

I don't think so..... Sadly im sure you will have to get the 30 dollars web I tried doing that on a nokia and it didnt work.

Hi there. I had signed up w the tmobile web2go $10 access initially when using and unlocked nokia 5800 and then got a hold of an unlocked Samsung captivate and have been accessing the internet fine for a few months now. All of a sudden the internet is no longer working and just goes to the web2go "need subscription" page. I called t-mobile and supposedly the "system" is able to see what kind of phone I have and they have "corrected" the ability for you to use a smart phone w the $10 plan. They now are saying I'm required to upgrade my data to the 200mb a mo for $15 a mo or unlimited for $30 in order for the internet to work at all. Why is it that all the reps I've talked to in the past has always had to ask which phone I'm using when the system can see it? Is this truly a "correction" or is this rep just trying to shaft me and not help me?-

Try changing the APN settings ... epc.tmobile.com is now the default connection for devices while all the other APNS like wap.voicestream.com from tmoblie still work but arent being used by tmobile
Try changing it and see what happens....
tmobile proxies don't use the epc.tmobile since its monitored and in use
And if they can really tell what phone you have.. Ima say no.. They have always asked what phone im using... Unless they just ask to see if you lie or not lol

Thanks for the reply!
Yeah.... I SERIOUSLY doubt that she could have seen what kind of phone I use based on the convo. I Told her what kind I used and had to tell Every Other Rep too... (they all thought I used a SonyEricson Equinox) but she was not a very nice lady who you can tell was one of those "had to be right" gals. So when I asked her why every other rep thought I was using the Equinox and why they all had to ask what phone I use, she made some stupid reply of them being on different "systems" (there's that magical word used for third party excuses again).
I have tried 3 different APN settings.
APN: epc.tmobile.com
MMSC: mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
APN: internet2.voicestream.com
MMSC: 216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
APN: wap.voicestream.com
MMSC: 216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
All were with:
APN: t-mobile
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN Type: internet + mms
(the rest were not set)
I would set it to that... then turn it off and restart it.
I got a call back from my cell phone store gal and she also says she doubts that they can tell what kind of phone I had and also guessed that the gal was trying to get credit for upselling me to a better data plan.
She also said that if anything... NOT to use that epc apn because that is the one that they May be able to track what kind of phone you use and therefore try and upsell you with.

On all my phones that i switch to use with T-Mobile I just change the apn to wap.voicestream.com and thats it.. I don't put no MMSC or any kind of IP
As long as you have an active Data Plan on the Account it shouldn't matter what APN you use they all work.. Some are slower then others

I just tried using just the wap.voicestream.com and it didn't work for me... grrrrrrrrr.
It also seems to be affecting my ability to send out MMS.

i bet if there was a way to change the IMEI of what the hd2 shows internally, you'd prolly get it to work... don't know if there's such a way though

In my case they actually knew and said is this the kind of phone you are using and I just barely started to use it now recently I went from defy to cliq 2 and checked the tmobile account page and it still says im using a defy kinda weird lol

the my t-mobile will not change unless you manually change it. and yes, the CS can see what phone you're using and also have a list of phones you used in the past. the T-zone and web2go ($5, $5.99 or $10 plan) will not work any t-mobile branded androids except for behold2.

[Q] LTE not working on grandfathered ALLTEL plan

I currently have an unlimited data plan called Connect Pack 1 from my Alltel plan that transitioned over onto the Aria that I was given as a replacement for the Moto Q that I was using.
Anyway, when I got the Skyrocket, they tried to make me transition to an ATT data plan, but I wouldn't go for it. I bought the phone outright, expecting to at least get the 3g working, but they said they couldn't.
I used the apn settings from the aria, and I do get 4G but for whatever reason, the
LTE icon isn't showing up in the notification area. I live in Houston, and we are supposedly one of the area's with it.
The settings I used are the wap.cingular settings that I see are listed elsewhere on here. Is there something additional I need to do to get the LTE to work.
Will the phone look like an Aria to ATT or am I going to be getting a notice to upgrade my account shortly?
Thanks

You need an LTE sim and the LTE plan to be able to access the new network. Maybe see if they can change your sim and plan?

Thanks for the prompt reply
I don't want to change the plan. Right now my data plan is cheap, and I want to keep it that way.
If I get a new sim, is there a chance that the LTE will work using the settings listed on wap.cingular? If it does work, how long before you think I would start getting some notices about it from ATT?

I live in Houston too.. and I have unlimited data.. I do get the lte icon beneath the 4G.. but it looses signal when left alone for a while.(sleep). And I have a regular hspa sim card.. I will go to att today and see what I can find out...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App

hope you hear something positive. The Cingular settings give me stable 4G which is actually better than I expected after my discussion with the att store about getting the phone. All they seemed to be interested in was getting me to sign an att 2year contract (haven't been under contract for years) and transition to a limited data plan. Not what I wanted so I just bought the phone off craigslist and entered the apn settings myself.
All I am truly worried about is if they update the data plan themselves if they notice the 4G phone on a 3G plan. I'm hoping since my original phone and the skyrocket are both android it won't raise any flags. I would love LTE but I am pretty happy with hspa+ for now.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App

I also am a former alltel customer and was moved to an aria. It recently broke and I got a skyrocket whick is great, but I live in Carlsbad NM and don't get lte anyway. So today I'm going to return the skyrocket and switch back to my alltel plan(at&t already said they could dueto buyers remorse). The guys at the local at&t here gave me the same crap about the skyrocket being unusable, which as we all know is bull. I have a galaxy s II gt-I9100 internationalversion on the way. I will also try my apn settings from my aria. Thanks to everyone who actually assists people unlike corporate customer care.

Officially throttled. [Screenshot]

Wow! I'm laughing!!! First time ever being throttled. Also first time seeing a report of the prompt as such.
Funny too cause I'm still on HSPA networks, not seeing throttle. Yet..
Anyone know if changing APNs still works if indeed I do get throttled?

When I've been throttled it still said I was on HSPA/ 3g networks, but I still got speeds of like 50kbps down... although it isn't really noticeable in th browser for general searches/ forums although watching videos is near impossible...

Data Throttleing Workaround
To all my friends with T-Mobile~ if you have a smartphone & a data plan, I've discovered a workaround for the data caps on the newer 4g plans. The newer phones come with a certain APN, or access point name, pre-programmed into them, kind of like a proxy that your phone goes through to connect to the internet. This specific APN allows the company to track your data usage. What I did was change it to a different APN that they don't keep an eye on. I've been testing this trick for about 6 weeks now & it definitely works. I've been purposely gobbling data like crazy all month just to see if they catch me(I'm at my 5gb limit already), but the T-Mo website only shows that I've used about 100 megs(which was only caught because I flashed a new ROM a couple weeks ago & forgot to change the APN till the next day). EDIT: As of this posting, my monthly allotment has rolled over, and despite using data all day long for several days, the meter on T-Mobile.com is still at 0mb :}
Step 1- if you have the T-Mobile "My Account" app on your phone- DELETE IT. Freeze it if you don't wanna delete it altogether, but either way get rid of it. I've been getting reports that this trick is not working for people with this app installed, and I think it's because it's measuring your data usage on the phone & then reporting your usage back to T-Mobile regardless of what APN you use. So kill it!!!
Step 2- on your phone, go to your settings. FYI- these settings might not be EXACTLY the same on every phone, but you should have the same basic information fields as the ones here. Open up wireless & networks, then mobile networks, then access point names. You should see T-Mobile US or something like it, and the APN should be epc.tmobile.com. This is the monitored APN. Create a new APN with the following settings(Settings>wireless & networks>mobile networks>access point names>menu key>new APN):
Name: whatever you want, I named mine T-Mobile 2
APN: internet2.voicestream.com
Proxy: leave blank
Port: leave blank
Username: leave blank
Password: leave blank
Server: leave blank
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-Mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS Proxy: leave blank
MMS Port: leave blank
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication type: leave blank
APN type: default,supl,mms (or internet + mms, if that's the setting your phone has)
APN protocol: IPv4 (if your phone doesn't have this, don't worry)
Once you input these settings, hit menu & then tap save. Go back to the APN screen, select the new APN, and enjoy your TRULY unlimited data. This APN will bypass the data tracking while still allowing you to enjoy full 4G speeds :3
FYI I've only tested this on an Android phone, but AFAIK it should work on any 4G T-Mobile phone that allows you to change the APN settings.
And FFS, keep your big fat mouth shut about this. Don't mention it to anyone at T-Mo, we don't want this getting out so they get wise to the loophole. Some might call this stealing, but we as customers PAY for unlimited data every month and its our right to get the services we pay for. Yes, the plans clearly state that you're paying for a limited amount of 4G, but I don't think that gives them the right to knock us down to sub-2G speeds once we use up our 4G allotment. If they just bumped us back down to 3G it wouldn't be a big deal, but it's total bull**** to cripple us with near-GPRS speeds.
Oh, and P.S.- if you've already hit your limit & have ALREADY been throttled... I've never been throttled so I haven't been able to test this on a throttled phone, so I have no idea if this will work to get you back up to speed(nyuk nyuk, I got jokes) but if you do it you won't have to worry about being capped next month.

does this enhance the 4g signal and does it matter on the state and area cause im getting deadspots at my job

I don't think it's going to do much to enhance your signal. Now the 3g - 4g data speed enhancement tool at the beginning of my mirror thread might help you out tho.

WiFi calling or UMA is all I have available as T-Mobile signal at my house is non existant, but if I drive 35 miles I get strong 4G. Go figure T-Mobile having not even 2G in my area thankful there's WiFi calling :thumbup:

Ya know...that's the really weird thing about Tmo. And ALL of the cell companies for that matter. Just like you I can drive about 25 miles south towards Chattanooga and get a scalding 4 & 5 bars 4G! Yet I can turn north towards Knoxville and take a mile left turn over a danged hill and can't even receive a stinking PHONE CALL for the next 25 miles! It's INSANE! EVERYONE should be able to at least make a phone call almost anywhere unless they live in a cave before they start UPGRADING their damned signals for people that already have freakin' 4G! It just blows my damn MIND!

Does this work?

I just posted this in another thread. See if it helps you......
Data Throttleing Workaround
To all my friends with T-Mobile~ if you have a smartphone & a data plan, I've discovered a workaround for the data caps on the newer 4g plans. The newer phones come with a certain APN, or access point name, pre-programmed into them, kind of like a proxy that your phone goes through to connect to the internet. This specific APN allows the company to track your data usage. What I did was change it to a different APN that they don't keep an eye on. I've been testing this trick for about 6 weeks now & it definitely works. I've been purposely gobbling data like crazy all month just to see if they catch me(I'm at my 5gb limit already), but the T-Mo website only shows that I've used about 100 megs(which was only caught because I flashed a new ROM a couple weeks ago & forgot to change the APN till the next day). EDIT: As of this posting, my monthly allotment has rolled over, and despite using data all day long for several days, the meter on T-Mobile.com is still at 0mb :}
Step 1- if you have the T-Mobile "My Account" app on your phone- DELETE IT. Freeze it if you don't wanna delete it altogether, but either way get rid of it. I've been getting reports that this trick is not working for people with this app installed, and I think it's because it's measuring your data usage on the phone & then reporting your usage back to T-Mobile regardless of what APN you use. So kill it!!!
Step 2- on your phone, go to your settings. FYI- these settings might not be EXACTLY the same on every phone, but you should have the same basic information fields as the ones here. Open up wireless & networks, then mobile networks, then access point names. You should see T-Mobile US or something like it, and the APN should be epc.tmobile.com. This is the monitored APN. Create a new APN with the following settings(Settings>wireless & networks>mobile networks>access point names>menu key>new APN):
Name: whatever you want, I named mine T-Mobile 2
APN: internet2.voicestream.com
Proxy: leave blank
Port: leave blank
Username: leave blank
Password: leave blank
Server: leave blank
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-Mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS Proxy: leave blank
MMS Port: leave blank
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication type: leave blank
APN type: default,supl,mms (or internet + mms, if that's the setting your phone has)
APN protocol: IPv4 (if your phone doesn't have this, don't worry)
Once you input these settings, hit menu & then tap save. Go back to the APN screen, select the new APN, and enjoy your TRULY unlimited data. This APN will bypass the data tracking while still allowing you to enjoy full 4G speeds :3
FYI I've only tested this on an Android phone, but AFAIK it should work on any 4G T-Mobile phone that allows you to change the APN settings.
And FFS, keep your big fat mouth shut about this. Don't mention it to anyone at T-Mo, we don't want this getting out so they get wise to the loophole. Some might call this stealing, but we as customers PAY for unlimited data every month and its our right to get the services we pay for. Yes, the plans clearly state that you're paying for a limited amount of 4G, but I don't think that gives them the right to knock us down to sub-2G speeds once we use up our 4G allotment. If they just bumped us back down to 3G it wouldn't be a big deal, but it's total bull**** to cripple us with near-GPRS speeds.
Oh, and P.S.- if you've already hit your limit & have ALREADY been throttled... I've never been throttled so I haven't been able to test this on a throttled phone, so I have no idea if this will work to get you back up to speed(nyuk nyuk, I got jokes) but if you do it you won't have to worry about being capped next month.

I haven't needed to use it in a couple of months now but the last time I tethered my tablet it got right on by That "would you like to spend $15 more dollars a month for something you already pay for" message they replaced my browser homescreen with. Of course I had to reinstall a fresh copy of my browser & everything else that it was using to get it to initially go away but I never saw it again after I did. I sure HOPE that it still works for everyone!

Avoid StraightTalk SIM.

Some of you know I have been using a pre-paid Sim Chip in my cell phone for my phone/internet service.
These past three days, my crippled data speeds have become unbearable. Time-outs caused notes to both Google Drive and Evernote to disappear into the digital ether, never to be seen or heard from again. After searching terms such as "HTC One X speeds straight talk" and "straight talk sim speeds" I began to see a pattern. People complaining of arbitrary throttling, and conflicting press releases by Tracfone Wireless and América Móvil, the parent copany of tracfone, straight talk, net10, Assure wireless, and others.
After trying the suggestions found on reputable android websites like XDA Developers and Droid FOrums I had no reliefe, and so sent an email to the corproate resolutions team at Straight talk (not the first time I've had to do this, as they tried to **** me out of at least $32 earlier this year with false advertising.)
Poor Connection Speeds
I am experiencing very poor connection speeds with my BYOP sim card. My phone is an HTC One X (ATT Version). phone number [redacted] straighttalk email registered via this account UN: [redacted]
I have set all of the APN settings to the defaults on the card and on the website.
Create a new APN with the following values:
APN Name: Straight Talk
APN: att.mvno
Proxy: http://proxy.mvno.tracfone.com
Port: 80 MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.33 MMS
Port: 80
I have also tried variations on this APN with no luck. Other solutions tried include powercycling the phone, changing the type of default data connection, cycling the "airplane mode" on and off, cycling from 2/3G to 2G and back, updating the radio stack and baseband in my phone, and connecting to and disconnecting from a wifi network. None of these solutions has made a dent in the data speeds, which makes me fairly well certain that the problem is not with my hardware's ability to recieve signal.
At best my connection speed in Ottumwa IA is 223 kbps, and often only half that. And yet people sitting right next to me with Straight Talk phones or sim cards can easily get 1000+ kbps. The phone is not an issue, it's capable of a huge variety of frequencies and standards, and many of them are offered in my area via both ATT and Tmo towers in Ottumwa, IA. This issue has also been consistent across all of my ownership time of the SIM card. If this is a "cap" as has been widey discussed in the tech press, then it should restart with my new billing period. That has not been the case, as these slow data speeds have remained fairly consistent since I purchased the card in January, including a service lapse and reactivation.
It concerns me that I have read examinations on multiple forums and in the press from knowledgable users that there is a difference between the sim card program and the straight talk branded phones, and that users of the sim program are not only throttled, but also purposely targeted for slower speed standards in general. It is seriously affecting my usage of my phone, as in the last few days, critical apps such as Evernote and Google Drive have experienced timeouts resulting in lost data.
Straight Talk has already upset me once as a company and it took my contacting consumer advocacy groups to recieve a satisfactory resolution to that issue. The fact that I still utilize the service is a show of my good faith with it, but if these performance issues cannot be addressed, I am afraid that I will have to join many others singling the company out for criticism.

You'll notice the specific proxy and port called out by the APN when android 2.1 or newer can easily auto-propegate these fields. It has been determined by people more knowledgable than myself that that combination of proxy and port specifically funnels SIM users to a pre-throttled branch of the network when compared with people using branded straight-talk phones.
Dear Lawrence,
We do apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you. I just checked your account on our system and found out that your data has been reduced. Furthermore, your data speed will be restored at a reduced speed 24 hours after an airtime card is added to your service end date. Should you have further questions, feel free to send us an email.
Sincerely,
Tyler
Straight Talk Wireless
Thank you for your patience, while we respond to your inquiry.

TLR if you ever even once go over the undisclosed cap of 1.5 gb... your connection will be throttled to >222 kbps. PERMANENTLY.
Since all of the Tracfone services under all the different names utilize the same back end, this will likely also be true of any other smart phone on a tracfone wireless service.
Then I guess I will be telling everyone I come in contact with to steer clear of any Tracfone subsidiary, as well as once again contacting the BBB and lodging another complaint. Thank you for confirming my worst suspicions about your company. This is the second time I have been baited and switched by you folks and I will not be giving this company a third chance, regardless of any offers you make to me.
Sincerely

when I first signed up for the service in january, I purchased a $30 limited airtime card. when I tried to activate it, I learnd that it was "illegal" to use on the smart phone program. even though I had prior written confrimation from Straight Talk customer service that I could do just that. They then tried to keep my money for THAT card as; well as make me either eat the $14.99 I had paid for the sim card, or pay another $45 plus tax and fees for the "unlimited" card.
In fact, it's only been in the last month, after numerous complaints like mine, that they began marking on their websites and packaging that smartphones MUST use the $45 unlimited plan or higher.
So, as per my promise to this company I am passing along my experience as a warning and cautionary tale. do NOT do business with TracFone, NET10 Wireless, Straight Talk, SafeLink Wireless, Telcel América and Simple Mobile. You will be bond for nothing but tears and trouble when you need their service most and they decide you're no longer profitable enough.

Sorry to hear about all the trouble your having. I've got a BYOP StraightTalk sim too but I'm on T-Mobile's network. I've abused the heck out of my data so far but haven't noticed reduced speeds and I'm pretty sure I've gone way beyond 1.5 GB. Could this just be the case for folks on an AT&T sim?

For some reason you have just had bad service with straight talk. I've been running straight talk for the past 6 months and have never had ANY problems. One month I used about 7 gigs of data ( a rogue app) and they did throttle me for the rest of that service month to 25kbps but the minute I refilled my account the throttle was lifted and I was regularly seeing 7mbps HPSA+ again. Since then I have used 2 and 2.5 gigs and have not got any texts or calls telling me I was using too much data and I have not been throttled.
Furthermore they have advertissed that the $30 card cant be used with smartphone before last month. I knew it six month ago when I first got my sim.
And you dont even have to enter the proxy into the apn for the service to work. Been using my phone since the beginning of this year with no proxy just fine. Oh and by the way I'm extremely satisfied with the service I get. I got about a 2 dollar discount for using auto refill so for unlimited text, unlimited talk, the best coverage in the nation, and a soft limited of somewhere around 3-4 gigs of data, I would say $42.50 a month is a deal that cant be beat by ANY OTHER service provider today.

Ha, pretty funny we keep winding up in the same places. I've been with straight talk for about the same amount of time also without trouble, although slow data speeds today. Other than that I have absolutely no complaints.

sorry to hear about your troubles but I can say this least
For the past 2 to 2 and a half months I have currently been using a net10 SIM before I got my HTC One. I first jumped on the band wagon of Net10 SIM when I got Samsung Galaxy Note ( Orignal) for $200 dollars. I found the net10 sim package at my local game stop for around $15 dollars. In that package there is three SIM options : One for AT&T branded or unlocked phones; One for a T-Mobile Branded or unlocked phones; and one micro SIM for AT&T branded or unlocked phones. I paid a small fee and had my Note unlocked and used the full sized AT&T sim. Got great speeds on HSPA+ ( between 4 and 8 mbps). However when I activated the SIM on their website they notified me, albeit in the small print , that if I used an AT&T sim that at 1.5 gb of use they WOULD throttle the speed down the snail ass slow. But on the left side of the screen they announced that if the AT&T SIM users want to switch to T-Moblie service instead that they would send them a free SIM card to do so. T-Mobile blows in my town as they have no 3g ony their EDGE service which isnt worth a damn with a 4g phone. So I'm limited on the service as far as GSM is concerned . With AT&T I get the back haul 4g its not LTE but still pretty snappy. The first month my 5 year old blew threw the 1.5 gb and instead of throttling me they just cut data out completely. Then they proceed to say that if you do that and add a service card before your service end date then then it does nothing for you data speed. it has to be on or after the service end date. I waited till the day my service ended and add an "unlimited" service card. However that did nothing. It was three DAYS before I had ANY data the two more days till my speeds were on par with what they were at the begaining. So all I can say is really RESEARCH the service you want and as always learn first hand. I am currently using the micro SIM in my OneX
and so far so good. I just use wifi when and wherever I can and keep and eye on my data usage. Other than the BS at first its pretty good for what you pay.

I've personally noticed network speed decreasing with the ownership of any prepaid GMS sim card.that I've tried (h20, straight talk, simple mobile)

Straight Talk completely turned off my data. Data does not work at all, Mms doesn't work. Which is why I'm switching service providers at the end of the month. I've had no problems for about the first 2 months. Then I pay for this month's and my data is cut off. I'm not going to keep paying for something that doesn't work. My little sister has an iPhone 4 on straight talk and her data is constantly off one day then on the next.

Same thing here.. I did get throttled once... 13 gb in 3 weeks, cable modem died and I tethered to my laptop, Netflix, Pandora, 1channel... Gotta love mhl adapter. They dropped me to like 25k a second, pure horror. After next payment boom full speed again.. sounds like the op just had a bad run

I was wondering if you fixed this problem. I have the HTC one x and have the exact same issue I have tried everything and phone still acts up. If so could you email me the solution please my email is [email protected] Thanks

Confirmed with Net10 also
Just to report same thing with me.. I had an HTC Vivid branded Att and also a Galaxy S3. I was duped into using the Net10 service and everything was fine until I flashed a different ROM on my girlfriends S3 and all the sudden I couldnt get any mobile data. I searched and re flashed roms and thought I wiped her radio. I felt like a noob for the weekend then finaly I tried puting the sim card from my Vivid into her phone and everything worked fine. I put her sim card in my phone and I couldnt get any data. Then I got heated because I just spent 2 days and nights messing with this phone, my girlfriend now thinks Im incompetent. and I never received any type of warning and new that I didnt use that much data.
Well that monday about noon I realized that I didnt have any data on my phone either. I called the worthless customer service to ask what the deal was and talked to a gentleman in India who after 30 mins told me that I reached my limit on data. I have an unlimited data plan that costs me 50.00 x2 a month. it was the 18th so a little over a half of a month I supposedly reached a limit that doesnt exist. I asked to buy more data with no luck.
Here is a company that offers unlimited but then says I reached my limit after about 2.5 weeks without any email or warning. They have no problem emailing me for dumb ****. Then I have no option to purchase more. I know that most people would say I just had a bad go. But I can assure you that this company doesnt want your business so dont give it to them.
Net10 Straight Talk Tracfone ALL THE SAME COMPANY
Use them if you want to but you will be throttled and possibly shut down. I had a smartphone that I couldnt use for a month. Im now with Tmobile and its not much better. I have no service in alot of areas that I frequent. Im not sure if any of them are worth a damn.

I'm going to have to change my opinion here I just paid my bill on the 1st. And on the third I was having issues sending a mms. Well knowing how much I screw with the phone I assumed it was something I did.. then I noticed when I left home and my WiFi disconnected I had no data at all... Now I'm pis**d off, call customer service after looking at my data usage.. 26mb used. I get the typical india rep that says they have no idea why. Then I ask for a supervisor and the guy says ok. I'm placed on hold only for the line to be answered by a machine telling me about high data usage.. I was like Bulls**t and called back. I get pumped to same message 4 times.. now keep in mind it's was a holiday here in the US so I had quite a few beers flowing through me. I finally called back from my wife's line and refused to give my cell number or name till I had a supervisor on the line. After tearing him a new one he reset my account and I verified I had data and at normal speeds. Then I had him give me the number to the corporate office, I called and received the message about calling back between normal business hours. I'm calling them Monday and gonna have some fun, polite but pissed attitude. I'll post the results of the call and may even record it and post that. See how it goes this time.
Only thing better than customer service is finally getting the phone number directly to the main corporate office in Florida.

i used to be an Sprint user, i was paying like $165 for 2 lines , the Internet was very slow sometimes, so i looked Information of cheaper carriers and good service and i Found Straight Talk,. that uses T-Mobile and At&t network, ( depends of your Sim Card ) so i bought 2 at&t sim cards from Ebay, like $70 dollars each, and i bought this awesome device too , and i unlocked the iphone 4s ( sprint iphone ) of my daughter with GPP and now i been using Straight Talk service $45 UNLIMITED, ( $90 dollars for both phones ) and the internet is very fast , i don't know what it is, but i guess is because i have the AT&T Straight Talk sim card . i'm very happy with this new service. :laugh:
btw, i tried this APN settings, but,...
