[Q] Kindle fire HD 4G Unlocked or locked ?

Hi everybody ,
I'v decided to buy a new KFHD 4G LTE from Amazon and take it with myself to Europe(UK) and use it there.unfortunately I don't know if it locked to AT&T or not ,because my own sim cards using in UK are Orange and 3 .
I searched in amazon forum and found they said it is locked to AT&T but some guys mentioned it is unlocked.I'm completely confused .
can anybody help me for this subject ?
by the way if this tablet is locked ,is there any method for unlocking ?
Thanks

Nobody can help me ?

We need somebody who has inserted a non at&t sim!

Yes, it is unlocked and will work with any sim, requires some work though

Well, in the Amazon reviews there are quite a few folks talking about using it overseas. The SIM isn't the problem, it's not locked and it works fine as long as your carrier has compatible technology. (Note: The ones that AT&T is selling directly with a contract and a subsidy are probably locked.)
I bought mine at a local retailer (Microcenter), and simply inserted the SIM from my carrier (A T-Mobile reseller) and changed the APN settings and that was pretty much that.
As I said above though, there IS a problem using it overseas - if Amazon doesn't sell Apps and Content in your country, and they won't sell it to you on the HD. The work around is to purchase VPN services from a US provider. I haven't looked into whether VPN is included in the stock ROM or whether it can be added later.
According to the discussions on Amazon, you CAN reconfigure it to work there. So, spend a little time with Google and the Amazon web site and you should find useful information on what's needed.

Amazon has just announced it is bringing its app store to 200 new countries soon. Also, you could always install the Google play store....

Using a free data sim from t-mobile for calls

I had a t-mobile 200 mb free data plan activated on a kindle hdx7 about a year ago. 2 months later I got an IpadAir2 and gave the kindle to my daughter and took out the t-mobile free data sim and she put in an att sim to use the data share family plan for $10. She is using most of the 20 gb bucket we have per month between her phone and tablet.
I activated a free sim from t-mobile for my ipad air2 and put the original free sim from the kindle on ice for a while. Tonite I found it and for the heck of it put it in the fire phone to see if the data plan would work in the phone. And it did! I chose the t-mo lte apn and rebooted the phone. And data started flowing. I was able to sign into Ooma mobile and make a successful call over data. The same with Time Warner's Phone2Go app. Was also able to make a successful call over data with this one. The only thing not working is using text messaging. It just won't work with the phone number assigned to the data sim Google voice worked too. Texting works thru google but mms does not work. The clarity of voice was best with Phone2Go, followed by Google, then Ooma. I heard well on all three, but was fuzzy and staticy to the receiver.
So if any of you have those free data sims from t-mo laying around, they will work on the fire phone for app calling. And anything else you want to use the data on.

[Disregard this post -- in post #3 I answer my own question]
Thanks, sashusmom. I tried this but I can't get it working. I can get to the TMO page where it tells me how much data I have remaining but when I try to browse anywhere else it takes me to the "upsell" URL to activate my device, get more data etc. I tried both unrooted and rooted and neither works. Another thought: I have a pre-paid TMO account that is tied to my unlimited 200MB SIM; is your unlimited TMO on a post-paid account, maybe?

I did some further research to see how this works and here is what I found:
Yes, you do need a post-paid T-Mobile account in order to have a SIM card that you can move from one device to another. Prepaid accounts with the 200 MB data plan, those SIM cards are married to the tablet they are activated on. Furthermore, if you do go the post-paid route in order to get this working, please note that you'll need a voice line on your post-paid account in order to get the 200 MB truly free; they give you a $10 bill credit every month as long as you have at least one voice line on the account. If you only have a data device, you will be charged $10 per month and you will not be eligible for the bill credit.

Everything I wrote in the opening post is true for me. Please note that the apn needs to be T-Mobile US LTE/fast.t-mobile.com I just checked and data is still flowing. It is a prepaid data sim also.
Thanks for your research, but apparently it doesn't apply to me. I don't have a post paid account. That sim that was initially activated on my kindle fire hdx7 for the free data for tablets with 200mb and is working on my fire phone- I know it is the same sim cause I marked it with an F designating free. So it is not married to the tablet. It is working on my firephone. It is a data only sim so voice and texting does not work.
Also it probably does not work in a tmobile device. My kindle was not a tmobile device and initially was not even officially supported for the free data for life plan. But it worked. The firephone is also not a tmobile device.
Another thought for you Dustbinge- does your free data sim- 200 mb for life- have any of the 200mb left on it? If not it will send you to the upsell page. On prepaid you can add more data when you use up the 200 free mb.

ok--thanks for the update. I envy that yours is working because I want the flexibility to use Waze in either the Fire Phone or my Samsung Tablet. In any case, yes, I just started a new monthly cycle and I have about 163MB left. I tried one more time and verified that I'm using the correct APN but I still get the same result. My prepaid SIM was indeed activated in a T-Mobile tablet so there's that. And mine was only done about a month ago so maybe something has changed over the last year.

Sorry to hear it I must be flying under their radar with 2 non t-mo devices. Maybe other peeps could try it and post. It would make it clear then that my case is different. It will be really nice since my main sim is att in an iphone.
If you're adventurous, ebay is selling simple mobile preloaded sims for about $5 each. It has 1 or 2 gigs of data and unl. talk and text. I got 6 of them when they were
$1/each and I have 1 left. They were all activated without a hitch following the directions enclosed with the sims. I would buy more but am too cheap to pay the going rate for them. Maybe $5/month would be worth it to you. You can always buy 1 just to see if it will be good for you. Simple runs on t-mobile.

Sashusmom, thanks for the tip on simple mobile--will def look into that. Another thought on the prepaid TMO SIM working on your Fire phone and not mine: could it be related to our ROM setups? I am stock rooted. What ROM if any are you running and are you using any special build prop strings?

I'm running CM-11 for safestrap by ggow. Rooted, no build prop changes. I never used safestrap before but it was very easy. I tend to re-read stuff 3-4 times before I attempt new things and read every post before making any rom changes. Maybe overly cautious, but I never bricked.

I installed safestrap and flashed CM11 for safestrap to try to match your environment. I also never used safestrap before and the good news is that it was surprisingly easy. The bad news is that it had no impact on my TMO prepaid card working. Thanks again for your suggestions.

Your very welcome and I'm sorry it was a bust for you Let me know how you like CM11.

I am about to do similar task. I have an old Verizon RazrHD with sim slot. Ordered a TMO phone sim (not tablet). It will arrive this Thrusday. I hope it will work. I don't think build prop will help because TMO has a thread about adding new devices to TMO DB, they use IMEI.

International Unlocked Note 7 with AT&T

First and foremost, I'm a noob.
Anyways, I'm giving this whole Android thing a go for the third time. I had an S7 and an S7 Edge, both were great phones but they were also carrier versions. I've owned pretty much everything Apple and coming to the realization that Apple is dropping the ball. It's time to switch it up.
I ordered an International Unlocked 930F Note 7 and I'm currently with AT&T. After researching, I'm aware that I'll be losing a few things like Samsung Pay and VoLTE. Few questions I have: When the Note comes in the mail, shall I remove the SIM out of my iPhone SE and insert it into the new phone? Or go to an AT&T store and ask for another SIM?
Your feedback/suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Someone will correct me if I am wrong but I don't believe you will lose Samsung Pay. It should work. And yes, just plug your SIM (if its a nano) and go. I plan on getting the same phone and I had the S7 Edge international version and it worked fine on AT&T. I never tried Samsung pay though.

Thanks for the quick reply.
Not too worried about Samsung Pay, as I don't even use Apple Pay. But the VoLTE is what I'm mainly concerned about.
Also what about visual voicemail? I understand it can be downloaded from Google Play, but will it still work and keep my same greeting, etc..?
Brings me to next question: Samsungs website offers the micro SD card as a free gift when purchasing the phone, do you know if they honor purchases from eBay and/or international devices?

Yeah I don't use Samsung pay either. Not sure about VoLTE.
Visual voice mail works fine. Just download the app from the Play Store like you said but not sure about the greeting. Don't know if that stored in the app or on AT&T's server.
From what I've been reading, when you register your phone, regardless of where you got it, you will be able to take advantage of the current promotion. LETS HOPE!

Samsung pay should still work, and so will the VVM app from the play store.
Eventually if a root/flashing method should come out for the international model which could let you flash over AT&T stuff such as HD voice. Not 100% sure on that but maybe someone else can verify that.
When you get the phone, go to the store and ask for a sim.
As for the free gift, it only applies if you buy it from a carrier store, or certain stores. I'm assuming the guy you bought it from already got the promo gift from Samsung. If you really want it maybe cancel the eBay order and get it from Samsung.

As far as I know you can't buy the international version straight from Samsung. If that would have been an option, I'd been all over that.
Would the SIM in my iPhone not work?

Seems you may be right, the only options I see on their site are carrier models. If you go to the promotion site though, they have an option for "other" retailers so you can try with your eBay invoice as proof of purchase.

I like where your heads at.
I suppose what I can do with the SIM is try swapping it into the Note and if it doesn't work, go to the store.

I'll pop in with a lil info for you. I use a international Note 4 on AT&T now with zero issues. A few reasons why I went with this version instead of a carrier branded phone. First one was the unlocked bootloader, since the AT&T version was locked up and still locked to this day. My 4 still works perfectly fine with a custom S7/Note 7 Rom on it. So you decide if you want it..
Now in regards to the crapple sim going into the N7, if I'm not mistaken you're going to have to get that changed from the crapple set-up. Think they need to put it back to regular data or whatever all the other phones use. You know it's always something special with crapple! I would say try the sim if no data you'll know why.
Good luck

As mentioned above, I believe Apple uses different settings for data with their sim cards. When my brother switched from a 4S to Android he had to get a new card. I also just got his LTE working for him by contacting support and registering his Sim card with the one I from a store display phone. I just took a picture of the IMEI of an S7 in store and used the "ATT Phone" APN settings. The NXTGENPHONE APN will not work for some reason when I tried it.

While I'm at the store, I'll snap a pic of the back of an S7 as well just to be safe. Can you clarify "ATT Phone" in the APN settings? Where is this located?

Go into the phone settings and get the IMEI and IMEISV
I needed both when talking to tech support.
As for the APN I used the same ones as the OP from this thread.

No Tethering with Verizon Classic True Unlimited Data Package - Need Options

Received my Pixel 2 XL today, bought the non carrier Google version and not the Verizon Google Store version.
I am on the long gone old classic Verizon Wireless true unlimited plan.
Upgrading from Nexus 6P which worked great on Verizon and tethered right out of the box, just switched it on and it worked
Got the Pixel 2 XL, Popped my Verizon Sim in at boot up as it requests, did full setup, data works, phone calling service works.
Went to turn on tethering and got saw the window say "Checking subscription status". Then says "To use Mobile Hotspot please call customer service to subscribe"
So no tethering for me unless I call Verizon and likely either pay a bunch more a month or get moved to their new unlimited plan, that only allows 10gb of tethering a month.
Suggestions/options/recommendations? I'll get in touch with Google but the phone may be going back.

Wait for root and then edit build.prop

That's what I am hoping for, been rooted and rom'ed since OG Droid due to this until Nexus 6P, which was a real pleasure to be honest to just be on the public channel.

Tethering is $1/day, sometimes less if you have corporate discount. You can use as you wish & not have to worry about anything

I have the play store version and am on Verizon with gf udf. I don't see any warnings like you. I didn't insert a sim until long after I'd setup my phone---used WiFi during initial setup. Maybe you got some carrier bull**** if your sim was in during setup?

I'm wondering the exact same thing. Really want to do this ASAP, can't really use the phone till then... Unless there is an app? FoxFi Maybe?

Wow that's weird. I did have sim on during setup... Interesting. I don't have WiFi at home , anyone else able to setup on wifi to confirm?

Did you try out pdanet?

Will be using WiFi tomorrow when i setup mine. Will report back. Ironically.. will be using my wifi tether on my moto x pure to setup my pixel.. worse case will just have my pure in the car for traveling when needing tether for others.

I just wiped my phone and redid it with no sim inserted in the XL 2, once I put the sim in and turned on the hotspot still got the same provisioning message.
I just put my sim in my son's unlocked Moto G 5+ and hotspot worked just fine.
If we get a lot of reports of hotspot working for people with the old grandfathered unlimited plan maybe it did something to the phone the first time I booted it up with the sim in it.

Just tried my tether again. Turned on. iPad connected to tether. Ran speedtest on ipad. Never got a message about needing a plan or whatever. I also had the Note 8 (unlocked). Did the same setup procedure and had no issues with tether.
Pixel 2 XL
Play store
Unlocked bootloader
Verizon, grandfathered unlimited
Not sure if it matters, I transferred/copied from the Note 8 to the Pixel during setup.

I setup my phone by copying from my existing pixel which was rooted to allow tethering on my vzw gf udp. I fully expected it not to work but to my surprise it worked perfectly. Not sure how or why, but it did and I'm not complaining

Perhaps by copying the data there was a transfer of the user database that holds this setting.
Code:
settings put global tether_dun_required 0
I believe this setting gets changed when you edit the build.prop with the following
Code:
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
Just a thought. No data to back the above.

I have not yet touched the bootloader, so maybe that has something to do with it. Will go look for that process and wipe the phone out (again) and try.
THANKS ALL for the help, much appreciated. That's interesting about getting it to work on Note 8, I thought it was extremely rare to get it to work out of the box on anything but a nexus phone

Tethering doesn't work with Verizon gudp, it didn't work with the first pixels and it doesn't work with the pixel 2 either. People saying it works out of the box either don't have a gudp plan or they have the tethering package on their plan.
Soon enough there will be root or mods available to bypass the subscription check.

Any updates?
And here's a dumb question, I am in the same boat as you I have the old school VZW unlimited data plan and need to tether also and am quite interested in the Pixel 2 XL (despite all the recent crying about the screen), so do I indeed need to get the unlocked version from the Play Store then? And then just pop my sim card in? I guess I am confused on the sim part, can you just pop any VZW sim card into it and it'll fire up recognizing it's your account/number/etc? Are all VZW sim cards identical? I've just never upgraded my phone like this before, getting an unlocked device. I am currently with a Galaxy S6 if that matters at all.

Think I know my plans and phones. Have had the LTE UDP since the HTC thunderbolt. Not sure how soon everyone is getting the tether warning but I'm able to tether. Maybe cuz I copied from unlocked and tetherable note8 during pixel setup. Maybe can my pixel BL was unlocked... Should seem strange.

Anyone heard of Visible (Verizon) Wireless?

Are there are any other Visible users on here? Visible is owned and operated by Verizon (it's not a MVNO). They are offering unlimited unthrottled data/talk/text/hotspot for $40/month without contract. I switched about 10 days ago. Speedtests are as high as 103Mbps! Got the deal to get the S9 for $408-$200 MasterCard they'll send in 6 weeks to equal $208. Service is exceptional and the S9 is factory unlocked. WiFi calling and Visual Voicemail work too. If anyone is interested, you can input code wQ8bD at checkout to get your first bill for only $20.

Visible and VPN

I'm trying the service, but I find that Visible seems to prevent the use of a VPN. (I use Private Internet Access.) T-Mobile doesn't have a problem with VPN so I'm not sure why Verizon's Visible does.

I'm using NordVPN with my S9 without issue. What VPN are you using?

I am looking to go with Visible, but need the VPN. I too have PIA. Are you using the PIA app or the OpenVPN app on your phone?

I have the PIA apk from the Google Play store. The Visible apk is the beta version, also from the Play store. I rebooted the phone after several package updates were delivered by Google this afternoon. And now PIA (updated 22 May) and Visible (updated 12 July) seem to be working together. So yeah, that's good news. Give Visible a try.
If you need a code mine is: wNmt8 (Full disclosure: Both you and I get a discount if you use that code. I don't have any relationship with Verizon, aside from just the cell service.)

So I learned Visible is selling the ZTE R2 phone temporarily for ONLY $19 ($20.52 shipped) and I asked Customer Support if I could buy one for a backup phone since they don't offer insurance. The rep said if I create a new account and buy the phone but don't activate the SIM I won't ever be charged for service and I'll have a spare phone for $20 so that's what I did. It will be interesting to play with. If you would like to get your first bill for $20 my referral code is wQ8bD

I am using it on an S9 and if you understand it ONLY works on Verizon and there is no roaming you will do fine.
As an aside, I am trying to change the SIM Pin and require it at boot as an additional way to secure the phone. Visible will not, or cannot provide the default SIM Pin. Anyone know what it is?

I am going to give them a shot. I will be moving my GF from Meto. Metro is getting on my nerves. We cant swap the sim without them throwing a fit. Also, the store employes state we need to pay them 10 to swap the IMEI BS if you ask me. But Visible will let me turn in my OLD iPhone 5C to get credit for that free ZTE phone they are passing out. Looks like they will give you the phone no matter what. Will report back on how good the services are in Charlotte NC. I have Verizon should be a good comparison.

Visible works well in Central and Northern WI with the exception of Marathon County which has no native Verizon towers.

it seems that its one of the myriad of the MVNOs out there.

Visible pin might be 1212
I'm new here and on a phone, I could t find how to reply...
For the person who asked about the pin for the sim, try 1212, that's the account pin (found on reddit)
And I wanted to ask the person who was able to root this device, how he did it? I got the g960u1 from visible last Wednesday, and I've been trying to root it or at least get twrp, with no success... I would love any help in this matter, thanks in advance

Thanks, can anyone try 1212 on there phone? I only have one more try before the phone locks and I need a new SIM from Visible. That means at least 24 hours without a phone.
A user on Reddit tried 1212 and it did not work.
Can anyone try 1111?
It is 1111, confirmed
