Yes sir just get domestic unlocked and input apn your good to go.

Apn as T-Moble, fast.t-mobile.com, 310/260, LTE as barrier?
Is there a way to force roam on tmobile without having a tmobile sim. Everytime i try to enter the apn in i am pretty sure it has to do with the 260 it autodeletes as it doesnt appear.

n900W8 on AT&T LTE

Hi, I just bought an n900W8 from gsmnation. The device works great. I'm able to put a T-Mobile SIM in and connect to the LTE network and things work correctly. When I put my AT&T SIM in the device it works but will not connect to LTE, only to HSPA+. Can anyone help me get the phone on the AT&T LTE network? Thanks!

T-Mobile and AT&T LTE bands can be VERY different in certain regions, if that is the case I doubt that is easy/possible - look around in the T-Mobile and AT&T Note 3 forums (there are like 5 Note 3 forums in total on xda) and you will see pretty large bounties for converting certain versions from one to another. If the bands are the same you also need to check if the APNs are automatically set correctly when you change the SIM.

Are you sure the N900W8 supports att LTE bands? I know only Tmobile version does besides the att version, obviously.

S6 region locked

Can anyone tell me if the phones is region locked? Thanks
i am not sure what you are looking for but i do know that there is a thread on here where someone tried a Verizon SIM in a Tmob and ATT S6 and neither one worked on Verizon.
Generally Verizon phones are SIM unlocked so u can use them on Tom or att but don't expect to get lte coverage since the phones have different bands enabled.

That's because those don't have CDMA radios, and at least the AT&T one is locked. Verizon phones come SIM-unlocked and work with other carriers. If you use a T-Mobile SIM you'll see an "unknown SIM" message, but it will work assuming the bands match. You should be able to get LTE with T-Mobile as most of their network uses band 4.
He means region locked, like usa

Anyway to get rid of this message? My g2 I had to root it to get rid of it. I hope I don't have to root the s6 just for that because it gets really anoying just having the icon showing unknown sim the whole time.

[Q] Galaxy S6 Verizon on AT&T

Bought a Verizon S6 to use on AT&T.
I setup AT&T's APN settings on the S6 and I have accessed H+ but not 4G LTE.
Can anyone offer any insight?
Most Verizon phones do not get att lte. However I do know the Verizon Droid Turbo, 2nd Gen. Moto CA and Vzw iphone 5s and up gets Att LTE.. .
AT&T SIM on VZW S6
Hello,
I have the same question how AT&T SIM would behave on VZW S6.
1. Which APN Are you using? Are you using phone or pta APN?
2. When receiving incoming calls, does the format look like example: +8085551212 missing 1?
your response is appreciated!!!

I got 4g lte .. I used both settings and when I make calls out it drops to 1x and then when receive calls I have 3G. Seems like the pta settings works better didn't see and h or h+ which. Did on the phone apn settings. I have a Vzw iPhone since I work there thought the s6 would be easy since know the turbo works. There's something missing and can't find it. Everything works I do get the +then the number tho. But haven't had issues sending or receiving texts. Just it should drop to 4g when on the phone and should work whether I get or receive calls. Minor issues happening I did switch it to gsm instead of world that may have been why h or h+ didn't occur with pta. I'll update what I figure out if you all do so as well
i remember seeing it somewhere, but can't find it when i need it, how do i permanently disable the non-verizon sim warning when using any other sim in the vzw gs6?
(i have succeeded on a one time basis by force stopping activation agent, but there's a permanent fix if i'm not mistaken)
Verizon variant doesn't support AT&T's original LTE layer which is Band 17. So you won't see LTE on your Verizon variant unless AT&T has either Band 2 or Band 4 deployed in your market.
At&t LTE worked just fine on Verizon S5. So why not S6?

I think Band 17 is the issue. Most of AT&T LTE is on Band 17.
I am currently connected to LTE (Band 4) on my Verizon G6, using a AT&T sim.
I used the LTE Discovery app to get this info.

Sprint Note 5 on T-Mobile Carrier aggregation

How can I get T-Mobile carrier aggregation on the sprint note 5....I know that the sprint note 5 only has it on 41+41.

I am trying to do the exact same thing. I have had the Sprint Note 5 with a Straight Talk T-Mobile SIM in it for a while. And it does work but something is definitely not right. I have messed with the APN settings and I have my MSL and have checked data setting and put the band priority for 2, 4, and 12.
Not sure what's wrong but just can't seem to get it right.
You will not have CA on T-mobile or ATT on Sprint phone. Sprint phone only supports CA on band 41

I have Unlocked T-mobile A71 5G, It works on Verizon network like 4G LTE (just swap the SIM card even I have 5G Sim card from Verizon) but NO 5G because they are using different 5G Band.
I have the same question, but on cricket wireless, I can't get the phone to login to their network
It works just fine on any GSM/LTE network. I have not checked this personally for this device, but depending on the variant you have, you may be missing some LTE or 5G bands specific Verizon. You may not get full performance. That must be verified though.
