Did you use your SIM card from your Atrix? I'm thinking about doing it since I have an iPhone 2g laying around, but I'm not sure if it'll work with my SIM card that already has a data plan.
But I'm still waiting to see if I even use all of the data I can. There is no point in spending an extra $5/month on something I don't need.
I was grandfathered in from an iPhone plan. Yay me
the iphone 2g is the only phone that will force att to give you unlimited internet. but back in January att said they will allow all prior att iphone customers to get unlimited back on there contract (provided it is the same number/contract) had they removed the feature at any time.
so I'm pretty glad I had an iphone. even if I had to deal with all the bs like no mms, no tethering unless it was jail broken, no video, crappy camera that didn't work indoors or if it was cloudy without a tripod. wow that phone sucked for the first couple years. but I'm glad I had it.
This is interesting.
Now to try and get my hands on an iPhone.

Might I suggest that you instead send him your SIM? Much less chance of something bad happening to an expensive (and still somewhat useful) bit of technology that way
Grandfathered in as well to the old unlimited data gotta love it

Yep, I did this back in April just to see if it worked.
edit... yes it worked. Just be persistent when you call the rep and let them know exactly which plan it will be. (in the event that they try and tell you it doesn't exist.)
I'm good now... Hooked up, got unlimited days now

Same here... I found one for 40$ with a cracked screen on my local craigslist... Thing is local is 2 hours of driving to get the phone and the seller doesn't want to ship it...
Some people on the original post say they can do it for you... kind of skeptical but yet at the same time, interested in it...

I'll help you out...
I found one that is $50... and you can return it too after 3 days so if it turns out it can't work you can get a refund (and even it does work you can refund it too)....
If you want I can PM you the link?
I found this deal on techbargains.com. This is the same deal that I got my skyrocket and it's pretty awesome. Californians beware of the recycling fees for electronics which added $40 on my purchase. Here is the link:

let me know if you get them to, as i'll try as well, i probably won't be able to try until sunday/monday, but
Sorry for the stupid question but how much does this device cost with a 2 yr contract with T-Mobile. The website says 149$ now but is that the final price or will the final price be 50$ after mail in rebate? And is the price gonna drop anytime soon(hopefully on September) I want this phone more than anything right now but 149 is just too damn much for me.

Yea I've had the chance many times but Im hopeful that the Christmas season and the possibility of the HTC one x + coming to T-Mobile will drop the price significantly. My phone upgrade is on the 18th of October so all these will hopefully lower the price to like 50$

On T-Mobile's USA website this phone is $149, after $50 rebate. You can get this phone in Bestbuy for $79 and no rebate needed. I was on bestbuy's website and the phone was $79

Yes with 2 year contract! There is one weird thing that happed. I had an older data plan which had unlimited fot $20. It was before the time when T-Mobile introduced 2G/5 and 10GB plans. On all other phones that I had including: Galaxy S and S 4G, Galaxy Nexus, Nokia Win 7 phone and so on, I was able to use Wifi HotSpot with that old data plan. Now when I got HTC One S, it stopped working and every time I wanted to activate hotspot on my phone, a page would open up, stating that I need to pay for $15 extra... So I called customer care and told them the above story. She told me that my plan is old and about 6 months ago the company started to monitor and charge users for hotspot service. She said I would have to pay $35 total. So at the end I made her do it for $20 for 2 year. So now I have new plan with 5GB+hotspot. I think phones with Android 4+ t-mobile started to block users without hotspot plan. So you know.

Wow that sucks! I'm assuming that since you're on xda your phone is rooted which means you can get FREE wifi tethering apps in fact that's one of the main reason people root in the first place. You should look onto it if you don't already know by now. Its just what you need!

I have a newer data plan with hotspot for the same price as was my old one, so I am happy.

Hey guys,
Since I already posted this in another thread, I thought I would post a new topic just in case anyone misses it.
I've got a friend working in Three who is able to get yourself the S4 at £35 a month but can also give you a £30 credit and some extra minutes too :good:
If anyone is interested then feel free to give me a message
Just out of curiosity, has anyone bought the phone from Three yet? How was your experience?
BTW this isn't just exclusive to the S4, there's other phones too.
was due for an upgrade from three, got the £35/month 500 min unlimited data also got a home signal box for free as i get bad indoor coverage.

After a few PM's with several other members I thought I'd post how this works...
I simply forward your phone number and name to someone who works in Three's direct sales department based in Glasgow. They'll contact you at a specified time and discuss the phone, the plan and the offer with you. It is up to you whether you want to place your order right there and then or place the order at another time. The order must be placed over the phone however in order to qualify for the deal as this is the only way they can add the credit and minutes to the account.
Contact me for more information if you are interested :good:
As for why I'm posting this here, let's just say I owe this person a favor
Basically DarkStones mate will be getting a commison from each of you. Which I personally think is a nice thing to do, just a shame im mates with my local store manager so already have mine ordered.
Well played to you though mate!!

Not personally no, but I've heard from others that it works pretty well
Just a heads up guys, from 26th April onwards, there will be a £49 upfront cost for the phone if you buy it online or phone into inbound sales.
Of course I can get this waived for you even after this date :good: Also, this is a new contract and not an upgrade to your existing contract for those that are interested.

isn't this the same deal on the Three website which you could also get around £75 cashback via TCB???

You wouldn't get the extra minutes and TCB may take a while to track. The credit can be applied immediately to the account by ordering directly from Three via myself. An additional £30 credit can also be added to a friend or family Three account if you have their phone number too.
I'm always suspicious of posts like this - how do we know that the 'friend' who works for Three isn't the OP.

Hey guys, just a quick bump to let you know that the offer ends at the end of this month. Also, a big thank you to everyone who has taken this deal up :good:
My S4 is due to come on Friday, can't wait ^_^
So, this is my second S4, it may be a short run depending on how the phone ships!
Here is the info to be supplied by this post!
1. Price I paid to Walmart.
2. Time it takes to arrive, (remember I purchased online 8/8/2013)
3. What firmware did it ship with? (will report soon as I get it)
4. If not updated, (possible rooting before the update happens)
5. End result, (those of you wondering if you can get the Samsung 3rd party before the last OTA update) we will solve here!
6. Updates will appear in post #3
Stay Tuned!!!
Walmart Price
$159.95 cheaper then ATT at posting!
this is based on 2 yr renew contract!
FREE FEDEX SHIPPING!
My Device has shipped with an arrival date of the 13th...
Updates will appear here!
:laugh:THINGS WE NOW KNOW:laugh:
1. Good deals exist through out the various carriers, do research before you buy!
2. Good sources, (right here in this thread) suggest the firmware is on the box...(look before purchasing)
3. Athough a good deal can be had online, your taking a chance of getting the updated/locked-down firmware from hell...
4. 3rd parties as well as the carriers still are shipping the old firmware, but as old stock depletes latest will be shipping!
5. If you are fortunate to get the older firmware... do not insert Sim until rooted & booted to prevent OTA..
6. My personal S4 from walmart shipped and has a delivery date of 8/13/2013
7. Please take the pole...
THANKS for STOPPING BY!
Sorry but this thread is pointless, even if you get an mdl (pre mf3) from walmart doesnt mean all wallmarts or third parties will be the same...some att stores are still selling mdl and others mf3...it just depends what that individual store has in stock

1. That is true, but some folks want to take some guesswork out of the math equation...
2. Its a better chance for Walmart to have stockpiled S4's directly from Samsung having the old Firmware..
3. If this post is useless to you... Move along!
Thanks, for posting!
Just curious, does anyone know if there is an identifier on the box that could give away the build date of the device? Would only help checking out local inventory, if possible. I threw mine away about 2 weeks ago.
