Hello xda,
It may be a stupid question but I am on a contract with verizon with a iPhone 5s. What would happen if I took out my sim and put it in the htc DNA I have? Would it work since i am on contract with the 5s? And would it do anything to the contract if I would put it in the DNA?
Thanks,
Matt

Hello my fellow TP2 fan's. I have had my TP2 since it came out for verizon and I absolutely love it. I recomended the phone to my friend who might switch from At&t. I bought mine with a new every two discount but are there any incentives/deals for the Touch Pro 2 for verizon?
Ok so I am on an ATT Family plan, its just me and my mother, I had the Samsung Captivate and it broke so I need a new phone, I already upgraded so I cant really buy a new phone from them, but my mother hasn't upgraded and she doesn't plan on buying anything cause shes fine with her old Sony Ericsson feature Phone, So is it possible for her to get a Focus and give it to me, then Cancel her Data Plan Since she doesn't use Data?
Also anyone know how long that buy 1 get 1 free WP7 Deal Lasts at ATT?
Yes... you can upgrade and activate the phone on her line, then swap SIM cards and then cancel her data plan. I have 5 lines and have upgraded them and swapped phones around in any combination you can think of, AT&T doesn't care, they have what they want, your 2-year contract.

Great! Thanks for the reply!
Ok, so hopefully someone can answer my question about this...
Right now, I have an AT&T Galaxy SII. Tommorow is my last day to restock and get a new phone. I want to import a Galaxy Note from Europe, the cheapest and in stock I've found was $800. So... tommorow I was planning on restocking my Galaxy SII for an Iphone 4s <----- for a higher retail price when I sell it.
My questions are...
If I do buy a Galaxy Note, will I keep my Grandfathered Data Plan with AT&T even if I don't swap out the SIM and take it to the store for a SIM?
The Iphone 4s is gonna be a pain in the ass because of it's damn micro SIM, so if I take the Note to my AT&T store, will they try to force a new plan on me or will I just be able to request a new SIM.
What if I don't restock my GSII for the Iphone 4s and lose about $50 retail... when buying the Skyrocket. Will I just be able to swap the SIMs and add the modem?
Any help will be much appreciated. I really want that note!
Bump... Really need this answered
When you get the note you will just have to put your sim in and add the apn. No plan change will be involved.
Edit* I meant GSM not GMS.
OK here is my full question. I currently have a HTC EVO 4G LTE, and I am on a two (2) year contract. If I were to sell this phone and purchase an Unlocked Samsung Galaxy S III, would I be able to have that phone activated on my contract until it's over with? Is this even possible or would I just have to terminate the contract and do something else? I really want to get an unlocked phone instead of being locked into a two year contract on a terrible network. Which now I regret extending the contract I'm on now. I have never owned an unlocked phone so I really am not sure how they operate other than you can use any SIM card in it. Can you even purchase SIM cards for major network carriers here in the states?

Yes the unlocked galaxy would work,but activating it would defeat the purpose of it being unlocked. Your contract should continue as signed just by swapping your sim in your HTC into the unlocked Samsung. Think of it like if you were to break your HTC and they give you a PAYG phone to keep the sim working, only it's not a crap $100 phone it's a galaxy s3.

The reason I want to do this is cause I would rather just sell this phone and buy an Unlocked phone and not pay an ETF right away and or when my contract is up I can switch and keep the same phone.

Or just stick to prepay after your contract. It's way cheaper. I'd say transfer your contract to whoever buys the HTC and get a prepaid sim and the Samsung. There's no fees for transferring you contract.It'll take like 15 minutes at a store if you go together.

So I'm probably gonna buy this phone tomorrow because my htc one x fell and has a broken screen now. I have no warranty so I need a phone badly. My question is can a AT&T branded phone have a bad esn or imei I think its called stopping me from activating it on my account?
