You will need your own 4g sim card to activate the phone, but Verizon shouldn't charge you for one. They gave me mine for free.

Well okay thanks I think I am going to buy a new one from wire fly to be grandfathered in for unlimited 4g

(Q) 4G data plan

This may not be the right place to ask this, but has anyone heard what the terms of the 4G data plan for phones will be? Will it be the same as the current 3G plan?

That's cool. When I asked the local Verizon store employee last week, he wasn't sure if was going to be the same.
Thanks for the info.

It should work, as long as you do it before verizon has a chance to deactivate it, which they more than likely will.
Okay thanks

I don't think you'll solve your problems with a charge though, whatever they might be. There's been plenty with that phone that have complained about the same problems the Thunderbolt has.
If you want to solve your problems, go back to a 3g phone until the 2nd generation of 4g phones come out sometime next year.
Thank-you for your opinion

Problems?

I just got my GT today, I pulled my 4g lte card out of my charge and it does not fit in the slot. Do I need a different card? Im freaking out right now like I bought the wrong one. I just want my tab to work.

Ah. I need a microsim. I dont want to cut the existing card. How much will one cost from Verizon? I don't want to wait for a week.

Is Straight Talk a good at&t Alternative?Other Carriers?

Im on t-mobile and this constant data drops and crappy signal in my house and everywhere u go is intolerable. I really don't wanna sign a contract but heard.good things about straight Talk. So i need advice or current user input on this matter. Or recommend me to something worth checking out. Thank you.

StaightTalk seems pretty good for at&t users who want to change carriers with minimum fuss. Your at&t note won't need any rom or modem flashing. But, you will have to unlock it and manually input the APN settings.

It runs on AT&T's HSPA network. So it's the same as that. You won't get LTE though. That currently only for AT&T.

Just order a sim card online...I'm currently on ST n its got fast data speeds n good coverage
If you have an AT&T phone and plan on using ST AT&T then you don't need to unlock your phone! I'm using the GNote on straight talk AT&T without it unlocked.

I just wanna make sure the signal and data is far better than t-mobile or not. Just wanna make sure the difference is worth it

No 4G connectivity

I got my DNA for couple of days now and I never see it connect to 4G LTE even in the same spots that I used to get with my Galaxy Nexus, I'm kinda worried now, maybe something is wrong with my unit?

It could be your unit or maybe your SIM card. If you have time go to a Verizon store and get a new SIM, if that doesn't work then Maybe get a new DNA
