I would like to says thanks to clubtech for link to purchase unbranded 3G tab 7.0 plus. Also thanks to xda for our own section here.
Just got my tracking number, I super excited, but I know to be cautious with AT&T data. Has anyone tried popping their AT&T SIM into one of these. I currently have grandfathered unlimited smartphone ( not iphone ) data. Currently I have a Dell Streak 7 4G, and I havent gotten any notices/ had any problems. So Im -hoping- I can just pop in my AT&T SIM with voice and smartphone unlimited and I'll be good to go as this model Im expecting is unlocked. I would be uber stoked!
Anyone have any suggestions to be stealthy and avoid getting bagged?
anyone tried a similar setup in USA with this device?
.... just want to be "safe" as possible. Thank You guys, Im sure I wil be very active in the forums when my device gets running.

sure, here: http://www.ipmart.com/main/product/Samsung,P6200,Galaxy,Tab,7,0,Plus,333168.php?prod=333168
enjoy.
Im hoping I'll go undetected by AT&T as there are still some 1st gen gtab users with voice and unlimited smartphone data , correct??
Thanks, coincidentally it's the same company I had found a couple of days ago. I even contacted them ( and they promptly replied to my questions ) asking a couple of questions.
Did u receive your tab yet ? What shipping method did U use ? Did you have any problem with custom , clearing it ? Did you have to pay any custom duty ? This was my bigger concern since the item is coming from Malaysia. In the past I've bought several things from China, Hong Kong and never had a custom problem. But never bought anything from Malaysia. This is copy of their correspondence :

As for AT&T, I do not live in the USA but I am there often. And I've always used a GoPhone SIM card. I even use it in the old Galaxy Tab 7 , that I bought from AT&T and promptly flashed with an European Rom, and unlocked , so I could use it as a phone. I buy Pay as you go data packages.

edit : I noticed that you just got your tracking number, so I guess you have not received the tab yet.

got mine.. used FedEx and it was here in 3 days.. No customs issues at all.
It will not work now t-mobile because the frequencies are not compatible. I am using mine on at&t and it works well as my area has 1900mhz coverage.
Fyi they are shipping the white model, not the black model as shown not their website.

3 days.. you lucky son of a gun.. j/k . I was thinking they might ship white, oh well I got a black carbon fiber skin that should take of that , so voice and data are working good on AT&T. I neeeeed this thing, groove ip and sipdroid on my dell streak 7 are flaky. what kind of download speeds you got clubtech? Im in hartford CT and in good areas, im getting 7-nearly 8 mpbs down on dell streak 7, normally around 4 or so.
mine just completed through customs whew had me nervous for a while.. im using DHL.
Hmmm, I'd love to get a white model. Thanks for the feedback, I'll order mine shortly. As you can see from the Ip mart reply they claim that they do not have the white model ........... I guess the guy answering the messages does not really know :

I can simply insert my ATT iphone sim into the sim card slot and use this tablet like my phone? If thats true then Im definitely going to order this. Anyone have any issues ordering from iPmart?

They are probably not aware of the color as it is being sent from a 3rd party. I definitely got the white version.. I wanted the black one but the white one will do as well.

Took a chance and placed my order. I hope mine gets here with no problems.
Ok so I bought this phone online without knowing much about frequencies and such.
Now I have it and I'm unable to use anything other than edge service! I freaking love this phone but the poor connection leaves a sour taste in my mouth.
The phone supports bands 1, 3, 5, 7, & 17. And LTE 1800mah & 2600mah frequencies.
Is it possible to get my phone to accept USA frequencies?
Thanks for all input in advance!
It would be of help if you could post the device details so we could point you in the right direction.
Thanks
Thanks a lot for your response.
I'm not sure what specific info you need and this site won't let me post a link of the specs.
I have an LG g pro 2, the D838 Hong Kong model.
Thanks for any assistance you can provide..

Please post the question in G Pro 2 General so that the right experts may be of help answering your question.
I'm trying to figure out if an S5 bought in India would work here in the US on sprint. Family over in India sent one over and didn't consider the potential band/frequency issues. It hasn't arrived yet but I am hesitant to use it considering Samsung's region lock etc. Anyone have any experience? Can it be rooted / flashed and work ok on sprint?
I searched around on the forum seeking an answer and I didn't find anything specifically explaining yea or nay. Closest I got was :

Thanx
I forgot to get the actual model number but I guess it's the international version? In any case, does anybody have an actual experience of bringing an unlocked S6 bought directly from Samsung to t-mobile? I'm trying to figure that out. Don't want to get back to the states and find out it doesn't fully work on some/all T-Mobile bands.
Ah never mind, I found it. It is sm-g920fd. Should have used searched first. Looks like it will work with T-Mobile, just incase anybody reading this is searching too.
Hi all,
First time posting so please be gentle.
I've just hit my contract end with my current mobile phone provider (O2) and I'm struggling to decide what phone I should get next and whether it's worth going the 5G route?
My current phone is a Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus (128GB model) and I'm currently looking at either the Oneplus 7T Pro or a Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ 5G but I'm absolutely torn as to which phone to go for?
I have major discount with most service providers due to my current job so money isn't too much of an issue.
Any advice anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated.
