Will my GNEX sim card fit in a Resound? - HTC Rezound

I'm trading my Gnex for a Rezound and was wondering do I have to get a new sim card or just swap out the one in my Gnex?

In the least offensive way possible... ****'s free, it's not hard to get a new one... and no, SIM's dont work in other phones... and if all else fails for you, try an iPhone 4s, you might like it.

Yes, SIMs work in other phones, no need to be an asshole about it. In this instance though, the GNex uses a micro SIM and the Rezound a normal SIM. Buy an adaptor http://www.amazon.com/Micro-SIM-Cutter-Converter-adapters/dp/B003UEWF8I or get a new SIM.

I don't think he was complaining it was just a question if he could switch it or not. And that answer is no because razr and gnex use micro sim cards while the rezound uses a regular sim

Alright, so I got 1 wrong, but I knew they had different sized SIMs. Just figured all SIMs were specific to the device they were activated in, my bad. But why bother buying an adapter or anything for that matter when you can get as many SIMs as you want for free...

What are the advantages of using micro sims vs regular sims, From the videos on youtube people can just cut the regular one down and it works the same. So the regular one just has more excess plastic lol?

Pretty much. It's just size. Depends on the slot size the manufacturers decide to put in. No real difference and no real reason why....

It you go to a store they should swap your sim for a regular one. If you are going to be swapping back and forth though, getting the adapter is your best bet. Except for size, all 4g sims work the same.

Cause people don't want to go all the way down to the store every time you want to change phones.......

Buy a sim cutter and use an adapter . If all fails get a brand new sim ( though it should be fine).

Not need, I have a micro sim into my rezound and works fine
Micro sim chip its the same as normal one....soo I already use it on galaxy s2, Droid 3, evo 3d, Lumia 800 iPhone 4s and now rezound

Well if someone's changing phones that much, then going to a store for a SIM card so much is their own fault.

You need an adapter. I just tried the micro sim from my iPad and it says "no sim".

Even if you don't wanna go all the way to the store, you can get SIMs from the website and they'll be there in a day or 2, as many as you want. And usually when you buy a phone, it comes with some sort of SIM card... off contract or not, usually it's in the box. Unless you buy it off the street, it should come with something.

Swap SIM between Rezound and Galaxy Nexus?

Thinking of getting a spare GN and was thinking if the SIM is swappable and Aldo how hard it would be to switch between the two phones.
I believe the gnex uses a micro sim that's smaller than the rezound. As far as I know, the rezound sim can be cut to work, but its a one way deal

Go to a VZW store w/ the Nexus ask for a sim to put in. Buy that and profit.
When the gnex first came out I had several buddies that wanted to swap between the rezound a gnex. I was familiar with the sim adapter from my iPhone experience and told them to try the adapters and I know three or four of them ran them for months without any problems.
I would go the route with having Verizon burn a micro sim for you, but if that's not an option you can order a micro sim cutter and the adapter together.
If they still sell them, the sim cutter is a tool that makes a normal sim into a micro sim so you don't have to cut the pattern by hand.

I do it every day, get the micro from Verizon but keep your old rezound sim. Use the micro as a template and cut out the old sim with a razor blade, then you got your adapter for the rezzy.

I wouldn't jump ship to that. It doesn't even have LTE.
No LTE, no sd card slot, LG, not a very good upgrade in my opinion. Seems like manufacturers are moving backwards. I understand their reasoning for no lte, it more of a world phone that way, but definitely a backwards step in terms of missing features.

Depending on your area, T-Mobiles "4G" (HSPA+) is just as fast in the real world as LTE, especially from Sprint. Not a killer imo.
$300 superphone phone off contract? That is not moving backwards.
Personally Im not going anywhere due to this ol' contract of mine. But if they keep this up, switching to T-Mobile and $30 a month bill with a $300 superphone sounds really freaking great to me. Will have to see what it looks like next year though.
Im totally with you on the SD card though, that is a bummer.
Just my opinion, but I don't see it as a superphone. To others it might be.

The Nexus 4 runs a quad core S4 (with Adreno 320, not our stopgap 225), 2 gigs ram, 720p RGP Stripe screen , bluetooth 4.0, USB host, and all the sensors you could want, plus built in inductive charging.
How is that not a superphone? It outspecs/ties anything on the market, certainly anything based on the S4 Plus like our EVOs, and I still consider my phone to be a superphone. If storage is such a concern, bring a thumbdrive with you for your offline media, it doesnt change the fact that the guts of the phone are the best you can find on the market shy of the Nexus 10.

I can see your point, I'll concede that as far as specs specs go it is a superphone. My own requirements for what should be in a phone is where I based my opinion. I can't really disagree with you though.

Google is getting dumb with hardware omissions, the SD Card being the first.
Matias Duarte really takes the blame here.
He had the nerve to call it (SD Cards) good but confusing, hence the lack of it on Nexus devices. WTF?!

Lack of an SD card isn't a deal breaker for me. I rarely store music or movies on my phone anyway.
After moving through multiple Samsung Phones and now an Evo, I'm just tired of waiting months for an OS update. I will probably switch to buying Nexus devices exclusively when my contract is up.
The fact that the unlocked Nexus is not much more than I usually pay for a subsidized phone may be the reason I switch off of Sprint.

Micro sim.... Gah!

When I pre-ordered my note2 I didn't realize that it took micro sim, and that I woild just use the sim from my Gnex. Oops.. so on my way home from work I stopped at a Verizon store to pick up a micro sim, and they wouldn't give me one without first bringing in my phone to be activated at the store!
Has anyone else experienced this? It seems to fly in the face of everything I've heard elsewhere.
So tomorrow I guess I have to bring the thing in to have it activated.

I think you can cut your existing SIM down, if you're very careful or use a tool, if you want to avoid getting your phone activated at the store.

It just looks like Verizon is trying to continue to keep control of devices as much as possible and for as long as possible. It feels like Verizon really has control issues which is now harder for it to do with sim cards.

Both the Note 2 and the GNex use a micro sim. I popped mine out of my GNex today and had my note 2 running in 30 seconds.
The SIM card from my GNex worked just fine as soon as I switched/activated my new phone from the VZW site.
Well by golly it is a micro sim! I guess I should have waited until I got home and had a look under the hood of my Gnex! Up and running now, now to crawl under a rock. Thanks for the replys guys!

No sd card on "one a deal breaker?

OK so i have been trying to do some research to find out if the "SPRINT" Version of the "HTC ONE" is going to be like all the rest of the carriers,,and i can't seem to really find anything,,For instance when the the "HTC EVO 4 G LTE" correct me if im wrong but i believe ,, the "one x" and the "one s" didn't come with external SD slots,,while the sprint version the EVO came with a SD slot,,and kickstand and camera shutter button,,,,,PLEASE!!! Tell me the sprint version is still gonna stand out from other carriers making "SPRINTS" version of the "ONE" superior.....PLEASE....lol........I'M a BIG fan of HTC since the "HERO" "EVO 4G" "3D" "EVO LTE" and have been lucky to have sprint have my Phone better then other carriers,, I'M afraid to say that if sprint jumps on the "SAMSUNG" band wagon with having just " 1" phone for all carriers the same,,I might jump to the SAMSUNG "JUST" for the fact of not having a external SD..
The external SD plays a huge roll with me,,for instance.....Some "
ROMS that i'v notice will not read external memory will synced to my pc ,where i have all my "ROMS" APK,,AND BACKUPS making me pull my sd and putting it in a sd card reader in order to do what i need to do ,,,ect......And also i dont think i would like the fact that my pictures are being saved "INTERNAL" what happens if my phone drops in the WATER or just get dropped and cracks or i get mad and throw it while on a drunken tour,,,my "PHOTOS are history,,,,,THAT WOULD SUCK!!!!!!!
IS THE "HTC ONE" with no SD card a DEAL BREAKER FOR YOU????
It might be. Depends on the alternative (gs4). If gs4 lives up to the hype then yes it's a deal breaker, if not the one is in the game. My upgrade is next month, if my wife let's me have hers

I really don't see this new HTC One as much of an upgrade. I haven't really looked at the specs, but I'm guessing that it's running the same specs as the EVO LTE, which means it'll probably have the same bugs. All you're really gaining is some nice front facing speakers and a slim package. Now there's no expandable SD slot, you're limited to 32GB and risk losing precious memories if the phone dies?!?! Ummmm... no thanks.

For me it is a deal breaker. I have about 28gb of music on my evo now. All my music was ripped at 320kb or FLAC and I am not changing that. I will run out of space without an sd slot. I don't want to go with a seperate mp3 player and phone just to store all my music. I will wait and see what the 64gb version cost if it ever comes to sprint.
I think it was a bad move to give exclusivity to ATT for the 64gb version, I think some people on other carriers will not switch because they are waiting for the 64gb version.

IM not to sure if the Chinese device dose,,,,,One thing that im wondering to is, SPRINT has not officially said that the "EVO" line is no more,,,,seems like they would of announced something to that nature,,,,,
there is no SD card on any of the models for the HTC one. anything and everything you see that may so happen to look like a slot is for the micro-sim card slot. which they are essentially making like the iphone style with a small slide out holder and you put the sim inside the tray and slide it in.
in regards to the sprint say that the evo line is still alive. i highly doubt that to be true since all the evo line phones were HTC phones. and HTC is moving to a unified platform starting with the ONE. so unless they switch the EVO line to a different brand of phone its pretty much dead.
they tried to save the EVO brand by rebranding the HTC one X as the EVO 4g LTE and look what happened there. so for all intensive purposes i consider the EVO line dead. but that doesnt mean a bad thing, i think its actually a good thing since they will now look to a unified platform for CDMA / GSM variants of phones. which means short of the baseband and GSM requirement software, all the roms should be cross carrier! just my 2 cents not sure if its accurate just hypothetical

What happened there? This phone has gotten pretty good support, better in some cases than One X itself. What exactly do you mean by "look what happened there"?
More of the decision to fragment the phone across carriers. we ended up having 3 different phones when one would have been better ( as they are doing now with the one ). I mean with one phone its easier to update and easier to maintain, fix and develop.
It would have been a better outcome I thinkip if they left the one x name and dropped their evo line naming all together

Please tell me you're trolling... You have to be trolling right now. Have you even read the specs for the device, or did you just pick it up and play with it for a few seconds and think it performed the same?
The EVO 4G LTE was a powerhouse, and the HTC One has a HUGE spec increase over it. Just because there isn't a MicroSD card slot, doesn't mean you can't use the phone. I swear, the phone's been out for like 3 days now and EVERYBODY has become an expert in mobile technology overnight to downplay the phone because it doesn't have an SD card slot. Deal with it. Store your music in the cloud. The phone was announced nearly 2 months ago, so if you're just now finding this out, you really should be paying more attention.

Here is a bunch of good info if your coming from a iPhone to the HTC One, as I did.
1. HTC Sync Software for Mac is super good. It will even put all your iPhone stuff on the One, text messages, photos, it asks you to backup your iPhone then it loads it on the One, it's great.
2. There are several apps for Android that allow you to sync to iCloud on the One if you still want this as I do. Here is the guys apps, they all work 100% with iCloud.

3. There is also an app for Apple Notes, called iNotes, again works 100% with iCloud syncing and Apple Notes.
4. HTC One email app will not push your apple mail, but it does work out of the box, just use @me to set it up.
5. You can setup Dropbox to upload your pics, then set up Dropbox on your Mac to send those pic's to iPhoto, so it's just like Photostream.
Bottom line the HTC One and all the software is the closest thing to an iPhone that's out there right now.
I just went from an Iphone 5 to an HTC One. So far it seems like a huge upgrade.

You need a nano to micro adapter. It's what I use, and it works great. I can switch between the two phones at will.

Are you using AT&T? If so, are you getting full 4g and lte speeds? I ask, because in the past when I've used an iphone plan in an android or windows phone, I was only able to get 3g speeds.

It's because the old iphones before 5 were 3g phones, need different plans. Everytime i switch to an old ip4 as a a back up it messes up my data plan. But the Iphone 5 is LTE so you can switch to another LTE phone at will.
May I just suggest an awesome app called Power Toggles. It's great for showing your battery percentage and getting a galaxy s type notification bar when you pull it down.
I use Nova launcher. It does remove blink feed which I miss however if you go into the settings and make the transition normal. You tell your iPhone responsiveness back. Amazing app.
Only some suggestions if you'd like to check them out. I found them awesome. Good luck with your One.

That's great to know, thanks. I might look at this phone more closely, it's the first android that I might consider putting down my iphone for.
I've always felt that htc made much better handsets then Samsung, so maybe this phone will help them out.

Yep, I'm on AT&T and I get full speeds on both devices.

That feeling you get holding an iPhone 4 or 4S after owning the iPhone 5, "this is tiny". Same anytime I hold an iPhone 5 after owning the HTC one.

I just switched from an Iphone 5 to the HTC one. It is the first android phone I have used that I still like better than the Iphone after using it a few weeks. I first tried to switch from an Iphone 4 to a Galaxy S2. There were too many inconveniences and I went back to Iphone with the Iphone 5.
I have no loyalty at all. If samsung makes a Galaxy S5 with an all metal body, front facing stereo speakers and optic image stabilization and somehow has something better than the HTC One, I'll jump ship quickly. If Iphone some day makes a better phone than HTC, I'll go back to Iphone. As it is, in my opinion, the HTC One is the best phone you can get.
congrats
Cleanrom has those toggles built into the rom which is really good. Work's flawlessly

This makes it easy for non rooted phones. Works great!
