Okay I know they have different sim cards. Well which one is the one for HSPA+ PHONES like this phone? Cause I called and complained about data speeds and they sent me a new one. Its different that what I have currently. [/IMG]
That's the new one they sent me. My current one which I got orginaly from the LG thrill is the one I got now its blue at the top and white at the bottom.

I can't really answer your question. The one I have is over a year old. I just went from the Captivate to the SGSII over the weekend and they actually didn't give me a new Sim card. However, my download speeds a are twice what they were on my Captivate, obviously because of the 4G.

The old blue and white one is compatible with regular 3g and hspa+. The new orange and blue one you got is for LTE, but it will work in non LTE phones. I switched from the old one to the new one recently and have not experienced any increase in data speeds
The one I'm using says Cingular on it.
the 8 or 9th, or 9th & 10th,can't recall without looking tho, are 2 5.. so if right around there you see a 25 then you have a 4g sim card.

I had an old "At&t 3G" Sim Card and couldn't connect to the HSPA+ "phone" apn, would only connect to "wap.cingular". After a good hour on the phone with At&t and the rep "provisioning" my plan for "4G" nothing worked. Went to the at&t store and got a new Sim Card and that allowed me to connect to the "phone" apn.
My old sim looked like the one Red5 attached
And my new one looks like the one the OP had in his xperia

poor speed here..
2-6 Mbps Miami, FL
About 2-5 in Socal , have never seen it go past my Captivate (HSDPA) yet.
This would probably be a lot more exciting to people on the TSGS2 forum. I can't imagine anyone on AT&T buying a T-Mobile phone just to gain access to AWS which doesn't even exist in Europe or Asia. Besides, the Skyrocket is the same phone but LTE and will pull 15-18MB down so if AT&T'rs wanted a bigger screen they'd get that. It's good that it works on AT&T for you T-Mobile'rs so it's not a door stop after the merger.
I don't have screen shot sorry. But LA, California I have a bug that does not let me test. -__- i will edit later when it works
No the thing is on the original gs2 I get 1- 1.2 mbps and on T-Mobile gs2 I get 6-10 mbps on At&t. That's why I wanted to know what kind of speeds At&t gs2 owners are getting that's all. I'm not suggesting anyone to go get the T mobile version.

It's not. The TSGS2 can get a theoretical 42MB down on T-Mobile using AWS so it's definately going to be faster there. Part of the reason isn't just the phone, T-Mobile's using dual-cell HSPA (link below). On AT&T's bands, it's 21MB down just like the ISGS2 and ASGS2 and AT&T's network's not dual-cell. If he's getting different results it's either because of APN settings being off, incorrect account provisioning, or AT&T's network just being randomly flaky. If OP was getting 1MB down with an ISGS2 something was horribly wrong. I get 3-4MB down in 3G cities and have gotten 10MB down on occasion when traveling in TX but routinely get 6-8MB down in fake-4G cities.

sprint's data was worthless....
I racked up a ton of roaming charges to get out of my Sprint contract ETF free because the data was beyond useless, like 25-50 kbps, T-Mo gives me anywhere from 7000 to 14000 kbps. I can watch Youtube videos again! I will take 5gb plus throttling over never being able to hit 1GB if I tried.
I use a Sprint PCS data card for work.
This is why I got a tethering plan with my phone.

I wish that was the case for me. My services were good with Sprint but they started charging me for stuff that didn't make any sense and the stores started to tell me to call *2 for everything. After I switched to T-mo I found out that they are kinda skipping 3G and going from 2 to 4. Which is better anyways.
I tried out sprint for 3 days and the data was so slow. At home I'd get 1-2mbps while on Tmo I'd get 5-8mbps. And i checked i was in "perfect" coverage too. Call quality was worse. Text messages came out or order. Their plans are good on cheap but the network sucked for me.

I just switched over and got the Amaze. Had the GS2 with Sprint and before that the 3D and the Photon. I agree T Mobile is way better but Sprint isnt that bad to me. I live on the Southside of Jax and I always had good speeds. Just had to switch cuz my other line roams too much. As you can see Im still using my GS2 right now actually.

1-2 mbps is around the most you'll get on sprint 3G because the technology is limited to 3.1 mbps down.
I used to be impressed with data speeds but in real life situations how is 5-6 mb better than 1-2. i stream you tube and Pandora just fine on 1mb. even when i tether my tablet it browses just fine so please let me know how speeds up to 10mb really make a difference. I just picked up the amaze for the second time today and my house only has a 2g signal and its too slow to even use the market. at least i can download apps on my sprint evo without having to turn on wifi
If people got 1Mbps on Sprint regularly there wouldn't be such a huge problem.
100-300Kbps is too common on Sprint. Not only that but in areas where EV-DO is so crowded you get 1x switching.
I love sprint i just wish 4G speeds were on speeds with LTE come on wimax

Don't take it back. Wait until after your first month and then go to the AT&T store and tell them you want to buy your contract out ($324). Now unlock your Note and use it on any carrier! This is what I am doing. Got my Note for half price ($149) and next month am buying out my contract and using the note on Straight Talk!
$324 + $149 = $473
Have fun with Verizon's 1.5Mbps "3G" network versus AT&T's 7-14Mbps FauxG network.
My company-use Vivid regularly sees 5-7Mbps in my town. My buddy's work Droid RAZR MAXX? 1.3-1.7Mbps.

Sorry to hear. It is a great phone but it would suck if the network is not cutting it where you live. A poor network would take away a lot of the GNote's potential in my view. Hope you get it on another network in the future.

Hey the Note is awesome. Wireless networks fast or slow are amazing, considering what you can do on them. Remember the Zach Morris bricks we use to carry? Besides at&t has 40 or so million smartphone users and over 100 million total data users. It's amazing that the network is as reliable as it is.

AT&T is great when you're in an area that doesn't offer LTE. Their HSPA+ puts Verizons 3G to shame. Only reason I don't have T-Mobile is because I didn't get great reception at home. Swapping phones at will is nice as well.
I am using my note on tmobile and I'm getting great speeds on it. Throughout he day I usually get 6-10mbs download speeds. Sometimes I peak at 12mbs. The upload isn't great. I usually got 1-3mbs on my t989 but only around 100-500kb on the note. No biggie. Still fast for me. Only problem is it hangs occasionally and I have to toggle it on and off to get it working. I'm looking for a workaround for that.

I'm going to wait it out myself. I ended up ordering a straightalk att sim and contacted T-Mobile for a seasonal hold on my account. If the T-Mobile note is true or if someone finds a fix, ill just have to wait till that or gs3.

no one loves at&t, who are you kidding. anyone with any type of rational would go to verizon. the cheap folks, us, go for the lower tiered tmobile and sprint.

I enjoy ATT and the Note as well. Love is a strong word. These threads are humorous.

I wonder if they're using a new modem for 1700 band or if its just a new radio and if that will help the early note adapters.

What's straight talk best deal? I'm not on contract so I could leave whenever I just don't wanna change my number again and I'd have to wait like 3 weeks till my credit runs out

Too many people b!##h about AT&T. Yet theyre the second biggest carrier in the US. I for one love AT&T Ever since I switched from T-mo. No complains here.
-Once you go NOTE, you'd say 4 inches a Joke

just pointing out the fact that tmobile compared their 4g network to sprints and then used a iphone 4s as an example on sprint 4g.
http://explore.t-mobile.com/verizon-att-sprint/vs-sprint/
you know... most people here are 1D10T errors. lmao! 4S IS FOURTH GEN! iphone. has nothing to do with their crappy 3G connection. oh it is 3G and won't ever be 4G lol. When is sprint going to upgrade their 3G to compete with at&T? The average AT&T 3G connection IS FAR FASTER THAN SPRINTS SO CALLED 4G NETWORK. With verizon, I get 50+M down and 12M up! THEY have a real 4G network.
I do find the comparison amusing. It's two-sided. 1. It's T-Mobile trying to prove that it doesn't need the iPhone because it has superior phones. and 2. Because only AT&T is the only comparison that actually uses HSPA+ like them. Funny thing is they can get away with that marketing because they never once said they were comparing 4G services, they even state "two different phones, two different networks". Truth be told if they compared the Galaxy SII for Sprint or even AT&T's LTE version the results wouldn't look as favorable even if their psuedo 4G is better than Sprints 4G Wimax. The marketing works in their favor as most people just see what's put in front of them, everyone else actually takes the time to do a little research before they make a purchase like that.

Until you hit your limit, then slow speeds await you.

One of their limits is at 5GB which is a decent amount actually for the typical user. In my area, their throttled service after the limit is still faster than Sprint.

Yes that is true but t-mobiles slow speed is the "high" speed "3g" I get with Sprint.

Actually, the iPhone 4S is the 5th Generation iPhone. The iPhone 4 was the 4th generation.
Also, sprint or Verizon can't make their 3G as fast as AT&T. That is one of the downfalls of cdma. Gsm 3G is faster in general. Cdma 3G tops out around 3Mbps while gsm can get up to 5Mbps and possibly a little more.

Well, sounds like you guys should switch carriers. I get 2Mb 3g and 10Mb 4gon Sprint. Tmobiles throttled speed is around 50 to 100 kbps which is way slower than what I get.

But really, how could they market their stuff like that? Hmm, starting to think most businesses are like that...
