[Q] Transfering Plans - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so I'm upgrading from a Galaxy Nexus to a Nexus 5 & I have to now get a Micro Sim (Or Cut my current Sim). I was wondering, since I'm on a prepaid plan can I just call up T-Mobile to get my Plan & Number Transferred over from my old Sim to the Micro Sim?

Go to My T-Mobile and you can check & change p/p account, there's no need to call 611 depending on what plan you are now on ... I have gold status on PAYG by the minutes on a spare line, and switch back-n-forth to the $3 day plan w. 200MB 4G LTE data with ease.
The new micro-Sim from T-Mo are available free, ups ground ship 3 to 5 days free, just order one & keep the included activation code.
Once you get the kit, call CS @ T-Mo and ask them to update your Sim card #, there's no need to tell them all the details or why. Got mine done in under 10 minutes in switching sims with the device off & old sim card out - be prepared to answer your account's security questions & PIN #, etc. Hang up call & wait 5 or 10 minutes, pop sim in slot, boot up - get "Welcome to T-Mo" SMS msg. and LTE/4G should lite up, make a test call first & then fire up the browser, profit & enjoy.
As some noted, check your APN settings (defaults should be fine) - just change from ipv6 to ipv4 to better deal with mobile data throttling as experienced by some, speed & latency are good for me & doing the happy dance.
If you can walk/drive to a T-Mo corporate store, you can try & ask for a free micro-sim and if lucky, they might give it to you free of charge.

Ok, thank you. I'm on the $30 5GB Plan right now. I have a Micro Sim coming in the mail some time next week. If I end up having any other questions about this I'll PM you if it's ok.

You can go to a tmo store also. I did that when I messed up my sim card by trying to cut it down myself. She gave me a new sim and called tmo to switch it over, all for free. Tmo is pretty flexible, if you had a cut rate company like Red Pocket, you'd have to buy a new sim and port your number over.

Paying extra for Sim card?

The other day I was at Frys to look at the SR. They had the black one for $139.99. I looked at the tag and it said that they charge an extra $7 for the sim card.
I've been with att for almost forever and I don't think I've ever been charged for the sim card. Is this something new or is this something that Frys is doing?
Lets say I bought the phone and didn't buy the sim card from them, can I still use my old "3g" card and get the LTE speed if I am in a LTE area?
U have to call at&t if u u do that because you will have no data. They have to know you bought an lte phone or your data will not work at all. Alsoi went to at&t the gave me an lte sim card for free. But i dont think your 3g sim will work at all. Needs to be a 4g sim

Not fully true, you have to get a new sim, they are called "4g" sims. or just you can just say plan sim card. also if you go to an att corp store you can get one for free!
Never go to a authorized retailer tho!!1 they will eff you stuff up!! ha
But you do need to get a new one to get faster internet speeds!
also you don't have to tell AT&t just use the phone for a day then they will send you a text saying, we see you're using a smart phone. to better server you we'll add the internet 2gb plan."
but if you want to start using the internet right away just call
Correct me if important wrong, but i think it matters what sim you have. I was on my old sim card and couldn't get LTE speed. Went to rogers bought an LTE sim...now on LTE speed.

So I can put my 3g sim card on it but won't get LTE and just go to the att store and pick up the 4g card for free?

Oi, people these days...
Call AT&T and have them provision your line correctly, they have to add the LTE data plan for the radio to get LTE access.
It really doesn't matter what SIM you use, as long as they provision it correctly, but it is good to get a new SIM when you get a new phone... so yeah.
Only time you need a new SIM is on Verizon, for their LTE. ^^
You do need a new sim. If you were to plug in an older SIM, you would be able to text and make calls but you would have no data. If you go to an ATT store, they will replace your SIM with the LTE one for no charge, regardless of where you bought the phone. If you buy the phone from ATT they will do it when you get the phone. I have sold 3 skyrockets and none of them had worked with the older sims including my own. I do not know about other carriers and can only speak about ATT phones. I do not know about whether frys has to pay att per activation or for the sim cards, so that may be why they have to charge 7 dollars. If you do not want to pay the 7 dollar frys fee, then get the phone, head to the ATT store, then replace the SIM for free.
Even if ATT provisions the line correctly, the phone will not pick up the non lte sim card. I worked with the ATT sales tech on the day the skyrocket came out. He provisioned the line, plugged in my old sim, and it wouldnt pick up LTE. Then he realized they need to use the brand new stack of SIM cards, set up the new sim, plugged it in and I had blazing fast LTE.

There's no such thing as an "LTE SIM Card". Plain and simple.
Normal size SIM cards are SKU 70357. Micro SIM cards are SKU 70290.
That's it folks.
The data plan is what has to be changed. For example, I took the SIM out of my Inspire and put it in my Skyrocket demo and got no data until I manually changed the IMEI to the Skyrocket.
Same SIM card, but a new data plan.
Oh, SIM cards are actually $25 and $35 for micro SIMs. Agents and ARs can charge if they want. COR stores shouldn't charge you, however.

Since we're on the topic of SIM cards and the data plans they use, I've got a couple questions I'm hoping you guys can answer:
I have an iPhone 4s which has my grandfathered unlimited plan. When I throw my 4s SIM into my skyrocket, I get 3g speeds (have to play with APN settings). Now, I don't have LTE in my area yet but with all this news of LTE springing up, I'm thinking it's coming soon. Here's what I want to do. I want to be able to switch from 4s to skyrocket freely without having to contact ATT everytime.
My questions:
1) Should I move my skyrocket to my main line to get a new sim to get LTE then cut it so it fits my 4s too?
2) Will the SIM work correctly in my 4s after changing to the LTE data plan?
3) Can I call att and have them switch my plan to LTE using the current microsim?
4) Will the 4s SIM and all the functionality work after making the change?
I'm hoping someone went through this already so I can get good advice. I may just have to be the guinea pig if not.
I don't know about you guys, but I am pretty sure my iphone 4s's micro sim isn't an lte sim card, and it works perfectly fine as long as it's positioned correctly.
For data, all you have to do is configure the media net apn
Edit: missed the guy's post above me, whoops!
I just got a Skyrocket today and I swapped my Infuse simple into it and it has been working perfectly. I am not in an LTE enabled area but the next time in am down in Manhattan I will test the speed.

[Q] Can I use a SIM card from a tablet on a data plan in a smartphone?

The title expresses my basic question. If I had a tablet that was on a Verizon data plan, could I take the SIM card from it and put it in a smartphone (that had the same size SIM) and use that smartphone on the data plan of the tablet? I understand that I probably won't get the basic phone calls and texting capabilities.
My other question is do you think the following scenario will work, or is there a better way to get a data only plan for a smartphone on Verizon?
Go to Verizon store and purchase a tablet on a data plan. Purchase a Verizon smartphone off of eBay that matches the SIM size of the tablet. Swap the SIM card. Sell tablet on eBay. Set up smartphone with Google voice.
I have found multiple cases of people taking their smartphone SIM card and putting it in a Tablet to use the data on the smartphone plan. But I've never heard of someone doing it the other way. If I put the tablet SIM in the smartphone will I be able to pay by the minute for calls or will I be forced to a VOIP service?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Well I don't know how useful that scenario will be now that Verizon stopped subsidizing their tablets with contract purchases. I was hoping to purchase it on a contract then sell it for more to help with purchasing the phone off contract.
Does anyone have any ideas on the best way to go about this? I want to try and stick with Verizon because they have great coverage in my area.
First, ask them whether you can get the smartphone with data package. I got my dell streak that way.
With data plan you will be able only voip and sms.

I tried to talk them into that last fall and they wouldn't go for it. What I really want to do is get on their shared everything plan with me and my wife and have 2 smartphones on their tablet plan for $60. Which is way better than the $150+ we would pay for the regular smartphone plan.
Is it possible to buy a SIM card from them or ebay and have it activated as a tablet and then stick it in a smartphone? Could I just go in there and say, "I forgot my tablet at home and I need a new SIM card activated on a new plan." Then take it home and put it in myself?
When they activate new sim old sim is automatically deactivated. You can't have two sim on one data plan.

Yeah, I understand that. I'm banking on the fact that they will believe me that I have a tablet at home (even though I really don't) and that I need a new SIM card (for whatever reason, like i lost it or my device didnt come with one cuz I bought it on ebay). Basically, activating a new device. Do they NEED the device there at the store to activate the SIM?
No
So you're saying that I could walk into the Verizon store, tell them that I need 2 new SIM cards for my new tablets and ask them to activate them for me on their Shared Everything plan then go home and put those SIM cards into 2 smartphones and they will work on the data only plan?
Can anyone else verify this as well?

I've found from people on HowardForums that this isn't possible. The verizon people need the IMEI of a device to activate the SIM card for it. Also, from them I learned that it is possible to put a SIM from a tablet into a smartphone and use it on data only. I just need to make sure the SIMs are the same size between the two. If I were to sell the tablet afterwards it would have a "bad ESN" and not be able to be activated on the Verizon network because it would be tied to my account. The tablet would still be usable as wifi only.

[Q] Nexus 5 with AT&T GoPhone

i currently have a nexus 4. i walked into a retail att store and asked for a microsim card and they handed one over free of charge. first off, i'd like to clarify if this sim will work in a nexus 5. is there an LTE specific sim that i'll need? or can i just swap from the n4 to the n5?
second, i'm currently using the $60/month gophone plan. i had to spoof an s4 imei with customer service in order to get proper hspa+ speeds. can i just leave everything as is (assuming my sim is good to go for a simple swap) and i'll get LTE speeds? well, not leave quite everything... i assume i'll need to switch from the phone to the pta apn, but other than that, will i be good to go?
i wanna be sure my transition to the n5 goes as smoothly as possible.
You should be good to go.
If they provisioned your current micro SIM for an S4 then you would already have the LTE SOC associated with that SIM.
All you need to do is pop in your SIM once you get the Nexus 5 and enter the right APN and you should be set.
What I'd watch out for though is when they do an IMEI sweep, if AT&T can read it as a Nexus 5 (or a generic smartphone) they will provision your account as such and you'll be put on a 3G data plan (which is the default for a smartphone they don't carry). This will cause you to have to get a new SIM and have customer service provision your account as an S4 again.
Full disclosure, I'm a former AT&T store manager (left a little over a year ago) and I've seen this sorta thing happen before. If you're on go phone, unfortunately you don't have as much leeway as a post paid customer when it comes to both customer service in store or over the phone. Personally, I'd tell them you had an LG G2 (D800) as the model number will be pretty similar, so that can help you get swapped back easier should they screw up your account.

Anyone out there using tzones/web2go $5/$10 grandfathered data plans?

It just won't work on this phone for me. I get redirected to a tmobile login page everytime I enter a website. Called tmobile/visit the store and they tried to fix it for hours but there's no solution besides changing the data plan. The plan works fine on my GNex. Maybe the problem and solution is similar to this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47203432&postcount=70
My knowledge of Android is too limited to find a fix so maybe someone that knows what they're might have an idea.
t-mobile web2go data plan not working on nexus 5
Same exact scenario for me. I've been trying to test different APNs that worked on my Nexus 4 but to no avail. I'm really hoping with is able to find a solution for this. I've used the web2go plan for my HTC hero, GNexus, and Nexus 4. t-mobile agents are telling me to upgrade to the premium internet. I'm having doubts that this will work for this phone because of the LTE network. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!!

tmobile is in the process of switching EVERYONES (yes everyones, you dont have a choice in the matter) grandfathered plans to their new simple choice plans. So basically, they wont let you transfer it to a new phone, ANY new phone. and even with your current phone, you will be forced to switch, eventually.
I would suggest just bite the bullet now and switch, because its happening sooner or later
Are you using the same old Sim card, trimmed down to micro-size or did you manage to switch to a new micr-Sim and spoke to CS to update it - otherwise, LTE and even HSPA won't be provisioned properly for it, that is - if grandfathered plans are allowed to run on 3G/4G LTE signals.
Good grief - we had a T-Mo p/p line using a Moto candy bar phone a few years ago with free web2go, super slow as in GPRS speed, not even Edge or 2G, since discontinued & transitioned to PAYG with Gold status - I use it as backup for emergencies since my primary carrier is CDMA with Big Red (well, not for long - less than 2 weeks before the big switch)
My PAYG line was/is still on the 25 cents per minute calling plan with data - but, I managed to update the activated Sim card in use to a brand new micro-sim card, and I'm using the N5 with Google Voice & Talkatone to make "test" calls over WiFi at home & in the field offices - I switched over to the $3 daily unlimited call/text & 200MB data plan just to test out LTE, and it worked - great speed & flawless. Speed is far superior to VZW's 3G data under speedtest condition.
I tried to stay current with "tweaks" over at Howardforum as well - IMO - there's no way to access HSPA/LTE if you stay on those old plans with grandfathered t-zones & sneak in.

I got the micro SIM made last year when I got the nexus 4. Wasn't aware that there were different provisions regarding SIM cards. It's looking more like switching data plans is the only solution.
I'll take another crack with T-Mo CS.
Thanks all.

T-Mobile could very well limited those plan to non-phone devices such as tablet.
Those plans are for tablets only, not phones. They don't provide airtime and if you tried to activate it on a phone, it most likely wouldn't even work.
Thank you for your reply! How about activate those plans via non-phone device such as tablet then insert activated SIM into Nexus 5, will it work?

Doubt it will. If they don't want you using it on a phone, then you won't be able to.
Using PC or phone to try to activate a new SIM for data only plan simply would not work. I got stuck with ConnectMe from T-Mobile web page and could not go any further.
As a result, I went to Walmart to buy a T-Mobile 4G Mobile HotSpot - Orange. I had visited a total of four Walmart stores. Only the fourth store still have the device in stock. The price is $49.88 plus 9% sales tax. Total came out as $54.37. The device package came with a SIM that includes 5 GB of data available for three months from first use. This means that my monthly mobile phone cost has further gone down to $18.13 from $30 as I have been using $30 per month pre-paid plan with 100 minutes talk, unlimited text and data with first 5 GB up to LTE speeds. However, my actual usage has been less than 10 minutes talk (due to wrong number or telemarketing as I do not give out this mobile phone number at all), few test texts with about a dozen free T-Mobile text messages (information from T-Mobile) and only about 600 MB data consumed each month. This is because I usually have Wi-Fi access except driving. When I drive, I can hardly use phone except making and receiving calls and check traffic condition. Therefore, I felt the $30 mobile phone service was over bought.
T-Mobile 4G Mobile HotSpot - Orange only support up to HSPA+ speeds. Once my phone was connected to the device via Mi-Fi, I opened the web browser to go to http://www.t-mobile.com/ConnectMe, it stated they had been waiting for me! I simply gave name, e-mail address, password and ZIPcode, then I was connected. Speed tests showed much slower than LTE speeds, like about 5 mbps down and 1 mbps up with over 100 ms ping. VoIP worked stationary, have not tested when driving.
Since the SIM for T-Mobile 4G Mobile HotSpot - Orange uses regular size (big) SIM, I had to cut it down to the size of micro SIM (medium) to fit into Google Lexus 5 by LG. Once the cut down size SIM inserted into Google Lexus 5 by LG and turned on the phone, it showed it is connected to LTE signals. Speed tests show about 25 mbps down and 20 mbps up with 40 ms ping. VoIP as well as all other data required apps work fine. T-Mobile did assign a 10 digits telephone number like device number based on ZIPcode entered by me. However, calling the device number got recording saying "At subscriber's request, this phone does not accept incoming call, message CA***58"; where *** means 3 digits number that changed every time when called. Sending text to the device number will get auto-reply stating "Free Msg: Receiver 1NPANXXYYYY unable to receive message - Message Blocking is active. Date: 09/29/2014 6:02 am"; where NPANXXYYYY is the 10 digits device number. Therefore, I am indeed getting mobile version of cutting landline telephone -- only getting Internet access from phone (like dry loop DSL) or cable company.
Log into My T-Mobile Online | Access Messages, Minutes & Bills | T-Mobile, it shows I have "Nexus 5 (D820)". In other words, T-Mobile is aware of I am using phone instead of T-Mobile 4G Mobile HotSpot - Orange (which had showed as "MF61 Liberty") or tablet, but still allow it.
I tried to port out the DID with $30 pre-paid phone to Ring.to. T-Mobile rejected it due to invalid account number despite per Find your account number | T-Mobile Support, my pre-paid account number should be the phone number. I had to print My T-Mobile Online web pages for $30 pre-paid plan into PDF files then e-mail to Ring.to support to finally have T-Mobile releases the DID to Ring.to today.
I am aware of T-Mobile plans to restore Pay in Advance Mobile Internet Monthly Passes for 1 GB from currently $10 back to $20 by the end of this year. If they indeed are doing that which I highly doubt it since it will have higher price than Sprint, my back up plan is to buy FreedomPop Freedom Spot MiFi 500 LTE (it appears this is the only Mi-Fi device they have that supports LTE) for about $162 including sales tax, shipping & handling and always place this Mi-Fi device in my car as I do not go places without my car. My phone will always connect to this Mi-Fi device whenever I do not have Wi-Fi. I consider this back up plan as paying one and half year of mobile data only service in advance for about $10 per month. What do you guys think?
I hope above information provided is useful by others similar situated.
Updated information as of 2014-10-06:
On Tuesday, September 30, 2014 after 7 p.m. I had people telling me in person that I was not answering call. I checked and found out all softphone apps went offline. I used web browser to check web sites, only could reach T-Mobile sites. Eventually, I had to place the SIM back into T-Mobile 4G Mobile HotSpot - Orange and had phone connect to the HotSpot, then Internet connection was restored but with HSPA+ instead of LTE.
Consequently, since Wednesday, October 1, 2014, I have gone back to T-Mobile $30 per month pre-paid plan with 100 minutes talk, unlimited text and data with first 5 GB up to LTE mobile network technology via a new SIM.
Upon additional search, I found out T-Mobile phone and data SIMs are not interchangeable between phone and tablet.
As a result, Red Pocket data-only plan is the only option now. One can get first ½ GB for just 1¢ that is what I am going to try next.
