Hi guys,
Just got my Moto G from Amazon. Upgrading from a SG2 skyrocket. Went to AT&T store to get a micro SIM. Before leaving the store I made a test call, worked perfectly. When I got home I wanted to test the HSPA+ speeds. It won't connect to mobile network. Called AT&T and they said the IMEI is not recognized in their system as a phone, and as such, will not be assigned a data plan. I called Motorola and they said since I bought it from Amazon, only Amazon can help me.
So I requested a new unit from Amazon, but then I got thinking...is there a way to fix this without having to return it? I don't want to go back to my SG2 for a week while I wait.
As a secondary note, I had my SG2 look for the Moto G via bluetooth and it was recognized as "XT-######". I thought that was strange that it wasn't called Moto G or something similar.
Any help or ideas?
Thanks,
D.
Have you checked the APN settings?

Nope. I know where the APN settings are, but I don't know what I'd be looking for.

You need to find out what AT&T's APN settings are (Or whatever carrier you're using) and double check if they match with the one you've chosen on your phone.

wait it's not recognized as a smartphone by AT&T? You may have just answered my question! I was looking everywhere to confirm this. I want to get the G for my mom to use on her line, she has a data block, I don't want to use data. So can you confirm this?

Just replied to your thread. It won't work. AT&T eventually recognized that it was s smartphone trying to connect to the network. They put me on a pay-as-you-go data plan at $2/mb.

AT&T also has its own prepaid (GoPhone) where you can get unlimited voice/text for $50 no data (wifi only) and aren't required to purchase data. However, it's cheaper to go through an mvno like he said.
I'm on GoPhone myself but I'm debating if it's worth the potential customer service hassles to move to a cheaper MVNO like H20 or Airvoice.

are you sure? Because in my situation, the line already has a Data Block. I read somewhere that as long as you do the data block on the line before switching sims, they can't know it's a smartphone. I may just try it and see if they find out. I'll disable Mobile Data from the phone and make sure it always has WiFi.

So we all have heard about the locked bootloader on the Verizon GS3. I was looking at the differences between the many GS3s, and I noticed that the US Cellular and Verizon phones had the same radios. Would it be possible to buy the US Cellular version for the unlocked bootloader and activate it on Verizon's network?
Verizon won't activate a phone that doesn't have their logo on it. The ESNs are completely under their control.
If you have a really good friend working at Verizon, they may be able to hook you up, but like the previous poster said, they won't generally activate any phone that isn't a Verizon phone.
What i been wondering is maybe they could take something from the us cellular phone to unlock the bootloader or something for verizon because they are pretty much the same radios
Sent from my DROID4 using xda app-developers app
Again, no. They don't give a damn about the radios, it's all by the ESN. If Verizon doesn't have that ESN in their database, they will NOT activate it, period.
Also, for EndlessDissent, your "good friend" would have to be one of their database engineers, because a retail employee can not and will not add an ESN to the database.

Good to know. I didn't know they had a database and everything. I thought it would be more like activating a Sprint phone on, say, Cricket or Boost, but they just weren't supposed to.

This. At the store we cannot do anything about it. If you know someone that has a 4g phone you can try putting the sim card in the us cellular phone and see if that works. Normally when we activate a new sim card in the system we don't need to input the esn number, just the sim card number. Worth the shot. Let me know if it works. Thanks.

You completely missread his question. He asked if the phone was close enough to the Verizon version for developers to unlock a Verizon gsiii bootloader/ use that companies unlocked bootloader on a Verizon gsiii. Has nothing to do with ESNs

Yeah... I think you misread the question. Activating a phone on a different network is completely dependent on the ESN (which I learned a few posts ago). Also, his question doesn't seem to involve helping to unlock the Verizon bootloader at all.

My Verizon 4G LTE SIM Works with the US Cellular GS3
I bought a Galaxy S iii for U.S. Cellular used from someone. I was planning on selling it since I got it cheap, but i decided to put my galaxy nexus sim card in there for the hell of it. IT WORKS! But I warn you, it's not fully working. Here's what works:
Phone, Text Messaging, and pretty slow Data (NO 4G)
Doesn't Work: MMS (picture/video messages) 4G Data
I am pretty excited and am trying to figure out a way to get MMS and 4G Data working. For the price I paid for the phone, I'd say I got a pretty sweet deal on a GS3 that works with Verizon.

This is very untrue, I have my phones flashed from any carrier, to my network through a retail employee. Not completely sure how the process works, but I do have issues with MMS, (I have to use GoSMS for MMS) and I can not get support for my phone from customer service, as well as insurance, etc..
Although, Flashing it is the easy part, and activating it is the issue. The only reason I am able to activate is because he is a retail (Store front owner) employee with the carrier.
Flashing to Boost or Cricket is exceptionally easy with flashing and activation.

Try using GoSMS Pro, as I said (In my previous post) it is required for me to use MMS after I flash a phone to my network.

Can someone tell me how to flash US Cellular's Samsung Galaxy Note2 to Verizon?
I am also using a usc s3 on my Verizon. But that's right no 4g or mms everything else works fine just went in a retail store he activated me a new SIM and boom. I'm going to try the go sms for the mms. But is there ANY way to get 4g working can someone help me with that plz and Thx
Can't get go sms to work for mms still. Can I just flash a stock Verizon Rom to this phone if so can someone give me a link for 1 to use been working to try and get everything working for like 2 days on and off Thx
Bump
I once called Verizon to see if i could activate a flashed iphone 4s. They said no because they would need the ESN number in their database which it wasn't. However, he said if it was a flashed 4g phone with the SIM card , it would be possible.
Verizon Samsung SIII
ROM: Jelly Beans 8
THEME: Magnum Cream
I have a US cellular GS3 and put my Verizon sim card in it. the phone works fine, data, calls and txt etc. the only issue i have is the phone wont go to 4g. 3g perfectly fine and i know the bands are the same for LTE. and i have LTE coverage from Verizon in my area.. any thoughts?
Hopefully I'm in the right spot here, first time posting.
I just bought an unlocked (T Mobile version) One S, popped in my AT&T SIM and I'm not getting any data whatsoever. From what I had read, it should be able to use AT&T's 3G, but I'm not picking it up. Is there anything that I need to do in order to activate it or whatnot?
Many thanks in advance.

I'm having the same problem, I bought a second-hand device, T-Mobile Splash-Screen but using Orange (Romania). Calls/SMS work fine but no 3G. If the VPN settings are the issue, are they all the same, where could you find them and so on?
Just Google for the correct APN for your carrier.

Yes, you can use it outside the US without restrictions. GSM\3G should work.

I got it with VZW card inside, but could not pass initial screen. Will I pass then when insert MTS sim-card ? xD
I bought it and use it in Malaysia (No Verizon here). When I first got the phone it will not pass the initial setup without a sim card. Got to trim my sim down to nano sim, pop it in and everything is alright. However I can't use LTE (due to different band) but tethering works by default without entitlement hack or root.

Just to confirm, bought droid maxx from verizon, using on Telcel on Mexico, Getting H+, not getting LTE.
Moving to Italy next week, will update everyone when I get there an pop in local sim
Just to let everyone know, in Italy now, works like a champ!! H+ out of the box, no extra setup needed.
Sometimes defaults to EDGE, but under settings>mobile networks, just switch it to UMTS, and it'll switch to H+
Good download speeds, definitely comparable to some high pop LTE zones.
Sucks 3gb is the max data
Works with RUIM in CDMA mode in Ukraine. (EVDO).

Where do you guys bought your Droids where they ship it outside the U.S.? Verizon said that they don't ship it outside U.S., only place I found was ebay.
Also is it correct that tether is unlimited outside U.S. carriers, wifi/BT/usb, all working?

Hi, I bought the droid maxx from Ebay. I'm using it in Malaysia, everything works, even tethering works without root or entitlement hack, so yes there is no limitation in using tethering. The phone is automatically unlocked when it is not used in the US, you do not need any unlock code. The only thing not working for me is LTE, due to different frequency.

I read the other thread above me, and the guy said AT&T didn't detect is as a smartphone in their system. I want to make sure 100pct before I buy it off of Amazon. And I will be getting the Global GSM version. also I read there is a GPe version? but on Google's site, it says compatible with AT&T, so I would assume it is probably flagged at AT&T.

no, I DON'T want the Data plan to be active lol, that was my question. I am trying to use it with a line that has a data block. Currently there is an international unlocked LG P500 on the line. AT&T sees it as unknown..
It won't work. This is what happened to me. At first they blocked data, then they turned me on to a pay-as-you-go data plan, which was $2/mb. It added up very quickly to $60. So I would not recommend using this device without a data plan attached.

have you tried just turning off data. Even if they put you on pay as you go, you could disable data.
I am wondering the same thing.
So I've had the Moto G for a week now.. I disabled data before inserting the SIM. So far, no issues (crossing fingers) with being detected. the AT&T My Devices page shows it as a Motorola device, but no image. I also haven't received any data plan texts from AT&T. I disabled background data as well, just to be safe. Let's hope for the best!
