If you are wanting two numbers to go to your phone Google Voice is the best option out there.
Thank you, but I just want to use my phone overseas when I am there, and at the same time be able to use my current USA T-Mobile sim (through Wifi.) Right now it's a hassle having to power off, take out battery, and swap sim each time.

i don't know how two SIM cards would even fit under battery of this phone it's pretty dang tight.
I found this
http://www.simore.us/us/compatibilites_200_T-Mobile_myTouch-4G_5871.php
I don't have one but the prices are expensive for these? I too would like to have a dual sim card adapter.
Then it also says this
The T-Mobile myTouch-4G has not yet suffered full compatibility tests

I'm guess it's really bad engrish for " we have not tested the MyTouch4G with this product yet "

With most dual sim adapter you would have to cut the sims. There are some that dont require cutting but the adapter would be dangling from the phone, which can be concealed with the case (the special scratch protector case.)

Yeah, I also found this (before I posted the question here.) It means the myTouch 4G is not fully tested for compatibility. If you look at some of the other phone models, it would say something like "....fully tested and compatible..."
I was just hoping to see if anyone ACTUALLY used one of these for the myTouch 4G.
Also I read really bad reviews on Simore. About the product not working and can't get a refund. So I dont think I will try them.
Title says it all. Can this thing be used as a phone? And I don't' mean through Groove Ip or something like that.
The Tab S can be used to make and receive calls, but how do you expect it to do so without the appropriate software to facilitate the functionality?
My international lte makes and received calls out of the box.

Si it has the whole phone interface? Key pad and the like just like a regular Samsung phone? Is it only the international version that has this?
Yep can be used just like a regular phone. Some of the carrier versions are locked down though.

Well I'm on ATT so I imagine theirs is. So I need in international version? How do I go about obtaining such a device? Will I need to install some software to turn it into a phone or will it have all that stuff right out of the box? Alternately could I just get the ATT version and root it to add the necessary software? I found an international version on Amazon but it says it won't work with US LTE.
I have been using my T705 as my main phone for the last 6 months. I prefer to carry only one device, and this is the perfect compromise in my opinion. No additional software needed for the international version. Just buy a good Bluetooth headset. ☺
Yes. But it would appear that the international version doesn't work in the US. Or at least doesn't work with AT&T; which I happen to use. If I get the AT&T version would I be able to add the requisite software?
Maybe you should read this.

If you go ATT you will have very little control over your device and will be locked down.

I see. Thanks for the link. While much of it is way over my pay grade I get the jist that so far nobody has gotten the international version to work with north american LTE.
Do I have any viable options? Am I just going to have to write this one off?
I would pop a message to deadman96385, he seems to be pretty accomplished at this sort of thing and may be able to shed more light on the subject.
Unfortunately I can't help as I live in the UK.

Done! Thanks.
Meanwhile, anyone who has any ideas please feel free to chime in!
Am I really the only person interested in a great big phone? I wouldn't even mind 7" but this 5.5" business just doesn't cut it for most of what I'm wanting to do.
specifically Metro PCS LG K20 otg?
I guess not
http://www.lg.com/us/cell-phones/lg-MP260-MetroPCS-k20-plus
its not even listed on that website even for the higher end phones. It works at T-Mobiles version I tried it but I cant get confirmation about metro pcs

Well I have the metropcs version and I don't think it does. I read somewhere that it did but I also read somewhere that it had nfc and turns out it didn't.

Oh yeah and on lineage 14..not sure if that would make a differenve
It has OTG support. No NFC.
Just got an H8314 model and verizon is unable to activate the phone. Are there multiple versions of the H8314 that I should know about. Shouldn't all of them be compatible with verizon?

Did Verizon offer to activate a new SIM in the device? Did you check the IMEI?
I took it to Verizon to get activated and it didn't work, nor did anything I tried. They punched in the IMEI several times and it never came up as working with their network.

Same thing happened to me today.
Last night the tier 2 tech guy told me I needed a new sim card.
Anyone else have any success activating it?
What's the trick?
The Verizon website says that its certified for use on it's network.

There are 2 versions of the H8314, one that works with Verizon and one that doesn't (international). Unfortunately, the international ones are easier to find online, if it says it doesn't work on Verizon/CDMA despite it being this version, then believe it. The American variant seems to be a bit more expensive than the international version.

Aren't the internal components the same?
Couldn't you just flash the US version of the firmware?

I don't know. My firmware flashing days are behind me to know this for sure.
My unlocked US variant cannot be connected on firstnet. The att rep is telling me that even though my phone has band 14, that it's not "programed" to work like it would on att firmware. I've read online that some people, in the past (it's been years) have flashed their unlocked samsung with att firmware and that they have gotten everything to work, including volte and features like that. Can anyone elaborate if this is posible to make it work?
This is false. I use and purchased a Fold 3 on FirstNet.
I work IT for county government. It works just fine.

The associates in store are generally very unhelpful with FirstNet. Are you the point of contact for your account?
