I have a US Samsung S3 from AT&T. What do I need to do to use a Taiwan prepaid Sim card in my phone while traveling?
Get an unlock code from AT&T or buy one from eBay, punch it in with a non-AT&T sim card. That should be it...

Probably so. I don't see why it wouldn't take it. A SIM unlock allows you to insert any carrier's SIM card for use on a GSM network.
When did you get the tilt?
I have been using my unlocked tilt2 with a go phone sim card for the past 6 months. Does the SIM card work with other phones? If not, maybe bad SIM card. If so, not sure what is up..
Try a new SIM card see if that works. I know if you bought the gophone in a kit you know one of the boxed ones in the electronics department the sims in the those phones are locked for 6 months i believe get a new SIM card activate it and your good to go if its an At&t tilt2 you shouldnt even need the device unlocked just from my experience and reading other fourms.. Hope this helps you or someone else
I'm getting an S3 today and I'm just wondering if the Wind version it requires a micro-sim card. Can I use my normal sim card or do I have to cut it? Sorry if I'm being a noob. I just want to be sure.
Its a Micro Sim card, yes. I have the WIND version. Mine came with the device Yours should too!
All S3s require micro sim.
Sent from my sexy white Galaxy S3 on T-Mobile
The WIND store I was at was able to cut my standard-sized SIM into a micro SIM. The guy didn't charge me for it and gave me a SIM adapter in case I needed it to go back to a phone that used standard-sized SIM cards.
Alternatively, if you can somehow get a micro SIM that's blank, you go to a corporate WIND store and ask to transfer your account over to that micro SIM. It's free of charge as long as you go to a corporate store, otherwise it'll cost like $10.

Ok thanks. The bad news is that I need to wait a month until an upgrade . I guess I won't join the S3 community until th end of September. Thanks for the answers anyways.
Just wondering, is there any place I can buy an unlocked T-Mobile S3? Either a website or a store.
Im new at dual sim phones. Do I just need my existing sim to put in my phone in SIM 1? I called AT&T they will not provide another sim on same number. Do I need anything in SIM2? Please just like to know
You just need a micro sim for sim 1. You don't ever need sim 2 unless you want to have a second phone number on a sim. If you have a micro sim already with your number on it then install in Sim 1 and your good to go
Sim prepaid vs plan
I have a plan- not pre-paid. I read somewhere that you need to get a prepaid sim to work in this phone. Is that true or Will any sim from att work?

I took the SIM from my AT&T Galaxy Note II and put it in my Zenfone 2 and had no problems. I was not on a prepaid SIM.

just bought a G5 on ebay, just wondering if someone could tell me which sim card sprint is using with the G5
Did you figure it out?
I have an old SIM card from Sprint BYOD and I am not sure if it works.
I know this website is for androids but I have a question. If I was to put my S8 At&t sim card in an unlocked iphone SE would it work normally? I have read it is really easy to unlock iphones, is this true?
