You might also need a non-gba micro sim for EDGE to work on tmobile. Wasted a lot of time looking for it as they are discontinued. You might get lucky and find one still sitting at a tmobile store. The card holding the micro sim would be blank instead of a photo that tmobile usually prints on the card. And also look for the 50.01 printed on the edge of the micro sim itself. Had a relative with this problem so we just cut his old sim since he hadnt switched to a gba SIM yet.
My newer micro sim did not allow me to save the Tmobile apn . Switched it to my wife's older sim that I cut down to a micro for her iphone. Entered the T-Mobile APN hit the save button and of course it worked. I was then surprised when I switched my sim back in and it still worked. Had a few 50.01 SIMS ready but did not have to cut any down and call T-Mobile to switch them.

The Sprint version is being advertised as an international phone, and comes with a Sprint SIM card pre-installed, and what appears to be a security strap, making it difficult to remove.
Before traveling internationally, you can call Sprint ahead of time to have them active their SIM card, and for the low low price of $1.99/minute, you can use overseas GSM networks to make phone calls, and in many cases, data access.
Of course I'd like to buy a pay-as-you-go SIM card and install that for much more reasonable rates while overseas, but I'm not sure if it's as simple as plugging in a different SIM card.
I had read that the Rogers version of the phone required...something to active the SIM slot, and even then seemed not to work for data via 3G.
Anybody else have the Sprint version? Played with GSM yet?
I'm a little apprehensive to start tearing into it to remove their SIM card just yet...
The GSM is 2G only, no 3G.
Well my buddy has a AT&T sim card that i put in my TP2 but it did not work. I switch the phone to GSM only but it did not pick up a network. I also put that sprint sim on his phone but it had no network either. According to the manual its lock from going to a gsm network on the USA.

Hopefully a custom ROM can unlock the ability to use GSM networks in the United States!

good to know.
I read in the manual that it was not usable on US GSM networks too, but I assumed that was because they never intended for you to remove the Sprint SIM card, so of course the Sprint SIM card wouldn't work domestically.
So it seems the Sprint phone can be unlocked for GSM just like the Telus phones, but I haven't read of any success getting GSM 3G to work w/ an unlock code.

d'oh, missed this....
What about EDGE?
Check the specs, if it said gsm 850,1900 it should be able to use with in the US. Just have to sim unlock it first in order to use.

EDGE is 2G
I am going out of the country to Mexico. I have never used an international sim card with my phone. Can I use one in Mexico. My phone is Unlocked and rooted. It is Verizon CDMA.
I highly doubt it for the simple fact its cdma. Most countries use GSM. I may be mistaken but I'd check with Verizon just to be 100% sure

That is what I thought just wanted to confirm. My phone is not international but I thought it would be with a different international sim card

The reason you're phone is not "international" is because the radio chip only communicates via certain frequencies. It is a function of the hardware that is physically soldered to the logic board. Changing a sim doesn't make any phone international. Whether or not the phone has a chip that supports the frequencies that the SIM is trying to use is what determines if you'll get service.
Also, Verizon only uses SIM cards for LTE service, not the phone. If you ever get your hands on an iPhone 4 or 4S that is on Verizon, take the SIM card out. The phone will still work fine. It doesn't even use the SIM card (because 4s and 4S's don't have LTE).
You posted this in the wrong section dude
Went ahead and reported it, asking it to be moved.
No worries though. It happens!
I was looking around different forums and I keep hearing that the unlocked S8 had an "LTE+" designation in the top right hand corner next to the signal strength meter. My SIM card is about 5 years old. Do I need a new SIM card and/or different APN settings to allow for LTE+ on my Galaxy S9 (which I assume is LTE Advanced (channel bonding))?
Now I know that some things such as WiFi calling and VoLTE won't work on my unlocked version though hopefully it supports all the bands that AT&T uses.
Thanks everyone.
It's been a while since I worked for AT&T but I can say this: why not? They give you the sim for free at any corporate store, so it's not like it's going to cost anything more than gas and time.
Hi of the blackview 9500 Pro it's not a complete idiot and I'm not afraid to get into the kernal. But like many I've gotten spoiled to the one click wave of rooting and hoping to find the same for this one. The main reason why I need to do this as the frequency bands on this phone will match 4G LTE for AT&T and already know it works for volte4g Cricket which is AT&T. But with this phone it will not under AT&T SIM card you like anything but 3-g band but the Cricket SIM card will utilize the 4G volte band I'm hoping to find some tools to modify this so I can have 4G LTE or volte on AT&T SIM card. Thank you looking forward to reply
Are you sure the native ATT Sim doesn't work? I have a Blackview 9500 (not pro) and my ATT sim shows 4G VoLTE. My second sim is Google FI and it shows 4G.
Sim
I cant be 100% as I have had the phone for less than a week. I went through every APN attached set up I could find. And to note it is a brand new sim card from the att store. I was going to try and switch sim2 (working cricket 4g Volte sim) with sim card 1 and see if sim2 is still 4g... I was hoping to avoid that due to in the past I had to call separate support lines to activate the IMIE... then depending on result possibly have to rinse and repeat back to back calling 2 different support lines... Ugh!
Could you many post what ur APN settings are many I missed something... Note*I was looking for root because I read that you can open up controls/ mods you wouldn't have otherwise with APN
Thx
I just grabbed a super cheap op5t n my vzw sim does work but only for calls n txts no data. I do have an h20 sim w 5gb of lte per month on it coming to me in a few days. My question is if i put the vzw sim in slot 2 n set it to the secondary sim card n h20 as primary will i be able to get calls n txts from my vzw sim n use data from the h2o card? I no this should work w 2 gsm carriers but cant find anything on using the dual sim to supplement the poor cdma experience in the us
I guess if no one else knows ill post with my results
