[Q] getting 3g on t mobile network - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

anybody figure out how to get 3g or hspa on t mobile network with a Verizon gs3

Just go buy a tmobile phone. Then you will know it will work. Your messaging would also work and we wouldn't have 2 threads about this.

4G LTE Upgrade Affect data plan?

When the Verizon Xoom (eventully) gets the 4G LTE Upgrade, do we have to change our plan? Or do the current plans allow us to use 4G LTE? I can see Verizon being greedy and force us to pay more to use their LTE network.

poll: wifi or 3G?

Hello,
this is a poll: did you buy the wifi or the wifi+3G version?
Cheers
Wifi.
Thot about the 3G version, but, seeing as how I have Sprint and a hacked hotspot tether, I really didn't need another data plan

3G only because I'm in Afghanistan but once I return home I'll tether through my 4G phone like the other guy.
Still waiting for my 6200 to get here

Wifi for me
I'm not paying extra data charges when I can tether free with my phone

3g will be obsolete eventually...
why spend money on a 3g + wifi when 3g will just go bye bye? ive also got my phone tethered to use tablet wherever i go if only i could just rid the phone lol oh well.

Force Roaming

Hi,
Has anyone found a way to force our phones to roam without rooting? I have bad Verizon service at my apartment but good At&t. Thanks in advance.

Or even if rooted?

You do realize that you can't' "roam" from ATT to VZW and vice versa?
ATT uses GSM technology while VZW uses CDMA. ATT has its own SIM card that will not work with VZW and VZW has its own as well.
There is a thread around here about using the VZW SGS3 with international GSM roaming, this requires you to have another cell provider's SIM, so you get a different number. I don't think this would work with ATT as they use different GSM frequencies from the rest of the world.
I don't even think the VZW SGS3 has the correct radio to work with ATT....
I guess I should mention that Altel got bought out by AT&T here and I used to be able roam on their towers using the app Roam Control. But sadly it doesn't work with the S3.

I did find another thread after I responded to you initially: While I am correct about not being able to roam between the 2 networks, you can apparently "switch" to using one or the other... so you would have to swap SIM cards to do this.
Although at the moment, I don't think 3G data is working...

3G on T-Mobile?

Is there a way to get 3G to work on T - Mobile like the Note 1? That would be great to be able to swap out my T- Mobile sim card and make phone calls.

Unfortunately no. The note 10.1 lacks t-mobile's 1700 band for 3g. The fastest speed you will get is 2g (edge).
Thanks for getting back to me.

[Q] gsm to 4g?

I have a AT&T Samsung Galaxy s2 i777. But I have it with Walmart Family Mobile service which doesnt offer 3g/4g. Its Gsm unlocked and I don't pay for 4g. So if I want to use internet, either I use my regular network, or I have to use a local unlocked wifi. Is there any way to force unlock, or somehow use my 4g? My phone is rooted if that helps.
If you don't get 4G from your carrier. You can't hack service.
