Can't be done since Verizon is a CDMA carrier and the X+ is for GSM carriers. However, just today, the HTC Droid DNA/Droid DLX just passed through the FCC today. The DNA, btw, is the Verizon version of the HTC J Butterfly that was recentely released in Japan. That is the closest your going to get to the X+, unfortunately.

It's only available on ATT in the states. You should be able to buy a unlocked international version and put a Verizon sim card in it but you'll never be able to use LTE due to the different network bands.

I would take the Droid DNA anyday, over the HOX+

So would I but no device is worth switching carriers for me with the deal i have locked in with ATT from years back. Any word if this Droid DNA will be out for ATT this year? If so would get this hands down over the HOX+ anyday!!! 2gb ram, s4 pro quad, sd slot, real no brainer, lol! If it won't be available for ATT and Verizon/T-mobile only then i'll have to go with the HOX+ by default.
No, it won't be coming to ATT, the droids always go to Verizon as their exclusive phones

Damn that's sad but overall i believe Verizon is superior to ATT. Just in my entire area ATT is the leader and would have to pay an easy $60 more a month to have the same exact plan as i do now on ATT and that's with my friend working for Verizon helping! Just not worth it for me personally.
The HOX+ sure isn't a bad device and still looking forward to it but damn when will it be out for us???

Next year there will be a new phone that HTC will release that should be better than the HOX+ on ATT. HTC still need to make a S4 pro gsm phone for the masses like the HOX

My contract with AT&T is up and ive been using a ****ty nokia since I broke my Tilt2 over the summer. I'm thinking about the Atrix but not sure especially if it cant be rooted. Wish the Samsung 4g was coming sooner... What do you think I should do? Want to hear people's thoughts and arguments, especially since I can change carriers if i want. I'm in NYC and I already know AT&T sucks, Verizon gives handjobs and puppy dogs, so lets hear it...

The decision is up to you, but if you are hell bent on Verizon and have Atrix on the brain id hold out for the Droid Bionic.
Nah im not hell bent on Verizon, it was just a preemptive response to all the flamers who were going trash ATT
It would be awesome to get that dual screen phone Sprint was touting...

Both the G2 and the MT4G are 4G.
Galaxy S II, I want that! The international version even has AT&T bands. Hope it comes here so I don't have to pay 600 for a phone.
Ok, it's said that we are getting the Pyrimid, We are def getting the G2x and now it seems the LG 3d phone passed the fcc with tmo 3g bands and is the first dual core dual channel phone.. I really would like to get a phone that dual core when they are available but with this att deal it doesnt make sense to buy a new phone. From what I read ATT plans on using the TMO 3g frequencies for it's LTE network which means current tmo 3g phones will no longer work as 3g. Granted this is going to take a while to happen but does it really make sense to get a new device now or even in a few months when there is a possibility it wont fully work in a year? hmmm

I'd look at the HSPA+ bands. I think they are doing to be coming out with ATT and T-Mobile bands included. IF that is the case then jump on board.
Apparently the G2X will have ATT hspa+ bands as well

Lol so when this is all going down (if it does) I might migrate to the G2X..looks like solid hardware to me. I love my mt4g tho. I'm sad to see the big launch phone for their 4G advertising have its life span altered. Granted according to most the fact stands that we have a year before the deal even possibly gets approved and even then we're talking 2013-15 before tmo 1700 mhz is completely shut down.

I was planning to upgrading from MT4G to Pyramid as MT4G for me was never official upgrade as it was quick replacement due to my HD2 being stolen. Now don't confuse upgrade and replacement with plan and insurance BS as I do pay my phone direct and paid $750 for Leo1024 got it 4months before it came out in TMoUS officially and paid $450 for MT4G.
I for one will not support TMobile and pay for HTC Pyramid even when if its has quadband radio and will support on AT&T. If the POS panzy dutch mofo's are selling it I for one will do pure boycott and I do hope they lose so much money that AT&T don't buy TMo as it looks very unattractive. I know I am very angry ATM as I am screwed both ways click here for my #1 reason can you call that double penetration?
I dont care, the pyramid will be my upgrade when it comes up in three months the 4.3 size is just the right size for me

With or without contract? Make sure this is what you want as you will soon deal with DeathStar if you don't switch to someone else. I do miss the 4.3" and most device that does have it on GSM are SamSUX based or HTC based on CDMA so I was looking forward to this until the BS merge of at&Tmobile.

I don't think anyone can truly answer this for you though, which is why the atrix vs inspire threads keep popping up. In the end you'll have to weigh the pros and cons of the features and networks and decide what's best for "you"

When I got my Inspire I knew that there would be more dual core options later in the year. But I've got another upgrade due in August I figured I would sell the Inspire at that time if there was a good alternative then. I bet there will be an At&t variant that will be out by the end of the 3rd quarter. I don't think the Sensation will be the steaming pile of fail that the Atrix is and it will have a 1520 mAh battery.
When I look at the spec's it's basically an Inspire with the DC SD, a better screen and they found the room for the bigger battery. Add Gingerbread and Sense 3.0 out of the box and it looks like a Dev's dream. By then they'll be cooking IC Sandwich roms.
I'm sure it all will be ported to inspire.

haha I just read the last replies and i think, it's so funny how most guys here from the states always worry about the network . I mean who cares what phone you can get with At&t and which one with verizon. You can get pretty much every single phone to work with every single carrier. Just buy a phone without simlock and buy the plan from whatever network you want.
Anyway, dont know why i just brought that up again, i guess cause im german and i never ever bought a phone directly from a carrier before

It doesn't work like that.
AT&T and T-Mobile phones are not compatible with Verizon or Sprint. The opposite is true.
Verizon phones are not compatible with Sprint. The opposite is also true.
Even within GSM (AT&T and T-Mobile), they use different frequencies. AT&T is 1900MHz, while T-Mobile is 1700MHz. It's exceptionally rare to find a 3G GSM phone that works on both carriers.
So, yes, it is important to consider the network in the US, because you probably won't be able to take that phone to any other carrier and still get 3G.

Get the money, the phone, sell the iphone 4 for 425-450. You end up with ~500. Inspire is 325 on craigslist.
Check online for iphone 4 prices, just to be sure. Last I had looked, it was 425.
No Brainer. Inspires sell for 250 on here so even if you want to stick with one you are a couple hundred ahead for your trouble.
Personally though I would make the deal, sell the iphone, and grab a bell htc sensation for an additional 100!

Yeah Bell Mobility uses the same WCDMA bands as AT&T, you just need to carrier unlock it if the one you buy isn't already unlocked. Other than that you'll need to put in some APN settings but it's all a pretty easy process.
Just make sure you get the 850/1900 model (Bell, some others) and not the 700/2100 model (T-Mobile)

If you buy the T-Mobile version, correct, no WCDMA data will work. That's why it's silly to buy the wrong model. Canadian carriers use the WCDMA bands that AT&T uses. Even better, the Bell HTC Sensation doesn't even have a carrier logo slapped on it like the T-Mobile version does.

Thats why I suggested adding 100 to the iPhone/inspire deal and you would wind up with a great phone for a small upgrade cost.
Is there a s4 version released/releasing that is equivalent to what at&t is getting? basically i can afford to buy one outright and don't want to wait until at&t let us have it. has anyone heard?
p.s. and i mean one that still uses lte, ect. no downsides.

ATT release date
I stopped by the ATT store Yesterday and they told me they didn't know when they were getting the phone. They did say it would not be out before the 8th of April.
ok, so now there is news that rogers is bringing the phone in coming weeks. two questions though:
will it connect to all of at&ts radio bands?
if i buyout the phone, will it be unlocked?
also, probably a mistake, but the informing page says rogers is 32gb. i know the u.s. has 16, what is the chances that stat is not a mistake?
