Whooowhoooo, good news. Just bought an AT&T Note. Arrived this morning and I just got off the phone with an AT&T rep. I was about to spend the 25 bucks for an unlock code but I had an AT&T account years ago (started with Cingular) so I dug out the account number. I rang the AT&T service number and asked the rep if I could get an unlock code and gave him my old account number and the IMEI. He said ":I'll keep my fingers crossed for you". 20 seconds later he said "I have good news" and gave me the code. I put in my T-Mobile SIM fired up the phone. The screen came up asking for the network unlock code. 8 digits later, success. Sitting on T-Mobile with Edge but soon to flash the T-Mobile ROM and Radio.
Give me 3 lemons to suck to take the smile off my face....
Lucky ass! I'm about to have to pay for mine. I gotta get my Note T-mobile ASAP!
confirmed. was able to get one for my i717 through a chat session just now. loves it!
this will help me determine if i'm going to use my at&t sgn unlocked on tmobile, or trade someone straight up for a tmo one. (making the jump back to at&t in the near future...)
I just got mine! Thanks!
Great news! When I saw the news that they were unlocking iPhones a while back, I started hoping for other phones. The note is now a world phone.

Cool. Might be switching to T-Mobile soon if the rumors of truely unlimited data are true. Love to take my Note with me!
just tried it a few min ago
the lady asked me how long I had the phone.
I told her I bought it Feb of 2012.
She came back within 5 min and gave me the unlock code and instructions.
I'm in Mexico right now so I did the chat option to get my unlock code but when I put in a SIM card from a Mexican carrier the phone never asked me to put in an unlock code am I missing a step?
The rep said that the phone would ask me for a code when I put in a different carriers SIM card. Any ideas?

If you can make phone call for the Mexican carrier, why should you care, you phone might be already unlocked. Save the code to use later on (just in case)
If you're not on a stock rom you can't input the code.

That maybe why my AOKP ROMmed Note didn't respond to a 2008 UK SIM the other night.
Now off to STOCK my Note.
Do you have to have had the phone a while? I was considering switching from AT&T to T-Mobile once their unlimited service comes out (depending on reviews). I just started my contract with AT&T in May but the termination fee is still less than if I would've bought the Note off contract.

From what I recall the last time that I had AT&T unlock a phone for me (3 upgrades back in 2008), you have to have the phone for a least 60 days, and your account must be in good standing (paid in full, on time).
BTW, AT&T gave me my unlock code via online chat in the time between my two posts without any trouble.
I got my Note (as an upgrade) back in May also.

Right -- stock rom and modem, and another carrier's sim card in the phone when you boot.
Was able to get unlock code after 3 hrs with these incompetent reps and supervisors @ AT&T.

I just got my code from the online chat rep. Very easy and fast. Don't call, they're a pain in the ass. With the chat rep, all you need is your phone number, last 4 digit of social, imei number.

I wasn't told of one, and I don't expect there to be one.
I was told by the CSR that 5 incorrect entries will permanently lock the phone to AT&T.
I have a HTC One in my hand 1 day after finally getting an order thru (5 calls after the original web order). Shipping speed was astoundingly good.
Here's my situation: I am switching from Sprint to TMO and have 2 months left on Sprint contract. I have not yet activated my TMO SIM. The plan I chose was the non-contract, Simple Choice.
I have an offer from HTC to trade in my Sprint phone for $100 rebate, and an offer from TMO for a $50 rebate (the $100 is dated which is why I hurried and am dealing with potential overlap).
Will I be charged monthly by TMO for service if I haven't yet activated the SIM? Does the charge start the day I activate the SIM? What are the downsides to waiting a month or 2 on this?
I think that with people switching to TMO in droves with these new phones out, this question will come up.
My understanding, service does not start until SIM is active.
Thanks, that makes sense. The sim card itself says "must activate by 2015"
How much did you pay for the phone? If you paid 580 you will get charged b/c your on a post paid service. If you paid 650 you are most likely prepaid and will have to pay your service when you activate the sim.
The date on the sim means nothing to consumers it is internal use.
Hope that helps

I switched to tmo postpaid a few months ago and they billed me for the few days my SIM card was in the mail. You could call them from your Sprint line to be sure but I'd bet dollars to doughnuts that tmo is already charging you for service.

i'm on the payment plan. paid 99 + 20 for 24 mos. but i'm on the 50/mo plan.
oh well might as well activate. i can eat the ETF with Sprint.
If you're doing the financing part you are definately post paid and already getting charged for service regardless of sim status. I want to check something, but don't cancel sprint yet. O will post another reply later today.

The actual sim card is irrelevant, he could change 6 different sim cards a day on the same phone number/account and it would not affect the date of when the service was activated. His account was activated when the financing was started on a post paid service. He is currently being charge for service regardless of whether it is in use, it is accessible to him.

This is what I was looking for. If you did this online or through telesales, you might qualify for a $50 rebate, it would help on that ETF. It looks like you have to port which is why i said don't cancel your sprint yet, port it to the new TMO service. I didn't read the fine print, just wanted to point you in the right direction. Hope it helps, and I cant wait to hear about what you think on the HTC One. Still waiting on shipping on mine

I did not receive a new number until I put the SIM in the phone last night.
Early Termination from Sprint is cheaper than I expected, so it's a no brainer for me at this point.

Why don't you try to get out of your contract with sprint. That's why I did. Let me find the thread about it.
I had a year left on my plan but since they made a change to their terms and services by changing the surcharges on my bill I got out etf free.

Your etf should be $50 if you have 2 months left. If you get good service with T-Mobile then you should port.

You have to have a line with Tmobile already. Sign into your account, go to "upgrade this line" and you can get the phone in your cart without a new plan.
Or you can just call Tmobile (you don't need an account with them to do this). They'll sell one to you over the phone and you won't need a plan.

when I try to upgrade there it says "Your profile email address is missing or invalid. In order to upgrade, you must have a valid email address in your My T-Mobile profile"

It's ridiculous that phone carriers now force a data plan on you if you want to get a smartphone so I feel your pain. I go between my house and school and have WiFi in both places so I have no need for a data plan.
One time I kept complaining to a T-Mobile rep until she finally let me order the phone without adding data but I don't know if it would work again. Maybe call again and explain your situation over and over and maybe you'll have some luck like I did.

Do you have a Walmart in your area? I'm in Virginia and the only place where I live that carries T-Mobile is Walmart. You can buy it there but it's $650 but you can walk out with it without a contract.

I just recently switched my family plan to their new plan from a very old family plan that we've had for years.
Their most basic plan has 500mb of internet included (which is probably more than I use when I'm not on wifi).
You can buy one without a plan but the cost is 650. Not the 580 that everyone pays "with a qualified plan"

I was in the same boat as you. I have the $30 plan and an activated pre paid SIM.
I went through the same struggles with the online ordering and customer service. Finally I decided to just buy it as a new line because since I was paying full price I could just cancel the service and keep the phone. I got the order in but there is some kind of fulfilling glitch and my order has been stuck in processing for a week.
Getting tired of dealing with incompetent people on the phone, I started to look around for a store that was carrying the One and I finally found a store in Arlington, VA. I drove out there and was able to buy one in person with little difficulty. The only issue was what somebody mentioned earlier, they wanted me to buy a service plan and I told them no I just wanted to use the plan I currently had. He eventually let me do that but the phone still ended up costing $609 + Tax. I asked why the price was higher and he couldn't tell me. I called T-mobile to get some clarification and they couldn't tell me so I asked around on Twitter and got a response from T-Mobile. They offered to credit me back the $30 difference so overall I am pretty happy.
BTW, the $30 plan works great with the phone. I even get some actual 4G LTE sporadically here in DC.
Good luck with getting the phone. It's definitely worth it.
Yea, I used to have the same problem...

I'm pretty sure you just have to put in a non-AT&T Sim. Go to a T-Mobile store and ask to borrow a sim. That's what I do.

I have an ATT LG G2 w/ Straight Talk (I worked for years in the cellular industry so I figured I could avoid their CS issues 95% of the time). Working great, and no issues, but always looking at options. Had the Verizon unlimited plan, and realized I use data so little lately (most is on WiFi and only transit times are really on true data) that it made no sense to pay a ridiculous sum for what I used my phone for.
Have a T-MO SIM at home, they were like 1 buck shipped so I picked up a Micro and Nano just in case for a fast swap, so I may try their 70/7GB plan out and play a little more data heavy (my work re-reimburses 70 so anything up to there is a wash for me).
Ahhhh the joys of number porting, and GSM phones. Play w/ everything until you find the sweet spot.

This part confused me. You don't use much data but are going for a 7gb plan?
At any rate, how is Straight-Talk? I believe they recently started offering ATT network. I have used the tmo prepaid plan and that worked nicely.
Thanks
I don't use it normally, but that's just by habit. I may try being a little bit less data conscious w/ it if I try since my out of pocket isn't different between the two plans. I used to be a lot more data heavy, but with WiFi going everywhere I make it a point to drop onto trusted networks because it's easier on my battery (in addition to the obvious data savings). I was using under 2GB max monthly with my VZN Unlimited plan so it made no sense to pay over 2x what I am now with ST for it and I changed.
It's solid. I went to it only because they switched on ATT LTE and have no problems. Their CS I've heard nightmares about, but I haven't had an issue. Their site freaked out and error'd during my PORT REQUEST and it billed my card 2x, and didn't port. I hit up their online person and they gave me a case and # to call. Called and within 30mins they had my port in process, 1 charge applied to it, and the other crediting back. So that particular instance was fine.
My only gripe is if you're an LTE speed purist as they appear to use a proxy that varies. I did a WHAT IS MY IP a minute ago and it was a service in FL (I'm in AZ) and another time I think it showed somewhere in CA. So they're using a proxy service which is going to cut your speeds depending on the hops back / forth / destination. Overall, though, for 45 bucks a month I have no complaints.
"It's solid. I went to it only because they switched on ATT LTE and have no problems."
This is what interested me, precisely. I am not worried about speed. Honestly, if I get more than 4 or 5 mbit, I am prefectly happy, since I don't do much on the phone that really requires high speeds...like torrenting
with TMO 4g, I was getting up to 12mbit. With att lte and my particular home location, I am lucky to see 12mbit (although in areas near me I have seen 52mbit). But, TMO has a few dead spots in my area that att doesn't. At some point I will probably eat the ETF and go to a prepaid.
Thanks for the info.

NP. I simply activated, threw on CleanROM, tossed in the new APN settings and I was good to go. LTE and MMS worked right away. You do need the new SIM card I'm hearing so it flags LTE ability in the system, but I was a new customer anyhow so that's what they sent (and had free shipping when I ordered it).
That's really all that matters... your personal experience. I dig Prepaid because I bought all my phones anyways (I really hate contracts because I'm technology finicky) so it seemed like a better option to change to a GSM carrier since I was being sent a phone for our game anyways and I just had to choose the phone / carrier. Now I can service bounce if I want, and not pay ridiculous VZN prices. Switching my wife to her own VZN plan (we've had it so long they had a single line 60 dollar plan for unlimited/unlimited/2GB) and giving her my iPhone 5 and then changing to ST we save like 50 a month. Even if I bump my plan we still save (not counting my work paying for 70 anyways). It was a no brainer.
Haven't had an Android phone for an extended period since the OG Droid on Verizon and I'm loving the LG G2 and where Android is now.

Yeah, I kept my previously used tmo sim just for unlocking. It expired and I would have to get a new one. As to buying on contract, doing the math, I can wait a couple months, cancel the contract, pay the etf and should be cheaper than buying it outright for almost $700. I have to be as cheap as possible these days

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone has dealt with att when canceling a contract because of relocation. I moved about 20mi away from my old house to this one, and I have absolutely no service, I am bound to a partner tower, I know this after a lengthy convo with att about my data not working.
I should be eligible for the exit clause, but I know how big companies like att can be. Do you think they will give me much trouble getting out of it? Btw I started my contract in the last six months and this is my first time doing business with att.
Any input appreciated

My sister had a similar situation a few years back and AT&T basically dropped them without penalty. they were lucky they were able to change over to T-mobile and keep their phones by just switching out the sim cards. Problem is if your phone is subsidized by AT&T they may not unlock it for use on another carrier. And they may charge you upword's of $500 to get out of your commitment.
