I have an opportunity to get a free unlocked GNex (for Verizon) from a promo with my stock broker. Can I use it with WiFi-only, without connecting to a carrier, without a SIM?
Thanks.
yes. it'd just be a WiFi only device.
Great, thanks for the fast reply.
alternatively, you can sell your Verizon unlocked version and sell it for equivalent of a GSM model so you can use your existing carrier with it
just an idea

If you are an AT&T subscriber, have an AT&T MicroSIM card and are traveling to Canada for a short period of time, you don't have to SIM-unlock your phone. You can use your actual AT&T MicroSIM card to roam on Canadian's wireless networks; you keep your actual contract with your carrier and keep your actual phone number. Beware of the potentially high roaming fees your carrier will charge you, though.
But if you plan to stay in Canada (either you are moving to/living in Canada or are traveling to Canada for an extended period of time) and you would like a new Canadian phone number in order to avoid the roaming fees, then yes, you will need to buy a new MicroSIM card from Rogers and yes, you will have to SIM-unclock your phone in order for your phone to recognize another carrier's SIM card.

Cancel your purchase as there is no way to make the CDMA Verizon able to work on a GSM network. It does have a sim slot but only for the Verizon LTE sim card. Only the newer Verizon phones (Note 2, Iphone 5, etc) have a sim slot that is already unlocked and would be able to be used on GSM carriers. Good luck and hopefully you can cancel your purchase in time.

Any ATT phone will work as long as you can get it unlocked or its already sim unlocked. The One X uses a microsim and you can just pop in your international sim once it is unlocked and be good to go.
I want to get this phone but might want to switch carriers soon. I was planning on doing the Sprint EasyPay for it and paying off the rest of the phone if or when I decide to switch carriers. After I pay it off in full and unlock it, would I be able to use it on T-mobile, AT&T, Verizon, or any of their MVNO's? Basically what I am asking is does the Sprint S6 support the necessary bands that the other networks operate on, and if so, would calling or texting still work? I have heard of some phones that have a SIM card slot for the LTE SIM on Sprint, but voice and text don't work once unlocked and used on another carrier.
Thanks,
Kyle
I would really like to know the answer to this as well. I have been searching without a definitive result.
Specifically, can unlocked Sprint phone be used on Verizon?
Hello everyone I hope that I get a response I have an LG G4 from Verizon that is fully paid off that I want to send to my sister in Mexico her carrier is AT&T. Now AT&T is a GSM carrier in Mexico emperor what I have found it would be compatible with the network however my question is how can I unlock the LG G4 Sim card so that she can plug in her Sim card. I have found that Verizon says that all of their LTE phones are unlocked but I just want to make sure before I send her a phone that she would not be able to use if I don’t do anything and everything I need to do
Unfortunately, I don't think you will be able to use this phone with an AT&T Mexico SIM Card. If your phone was locked and used on Verizon, it means that is a CDMA device. Thus, it works only with Verizon and doesn't recognize the GSM Technology so it won't accept the AT&T Sim card.
More info on CDMA networks here: https://www.unlockunit.com/blog/cdma-networks/
I think you are better of selling this device in the US and buying an already unlocked GSM model.
