I hope someone can help me out here.

Yes, but don't count on getting an LTE data connection. Voice and HSPA should work fine.

The GSM Dev Edition and GSM Unlocked (shps with T-Mobile or Net10 sim) are both the XT1053, and will work on ATT just fine.
Keep in mind the XT1053 is missing support for LTE Band 5, which ATT is now using in some areas. So if that is the only band ATT is using for LTE in your area you wont get LTE with the XT1053, but you will fall back to Hspa/Hspa+
The XT1053 is also missing support for LTE band 7 which supposedly isn't being used in the USA.
That being said, my sister-in-law is using a GSM Unlocked (XT1053) in south eastern PA on ATT just fine for everything, including LTE.

While your info is relevant, the phone linked in the OP is the VZW Dev editon. @blackviper71 's post was correct regarding that device. Moot-point though, because the device is already sold.

AT&T Vivid on T-Mobile $30 unlimited data plan

See this thread for some historical perspective. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1338028
T_Mobile is indeed refarming their spectrum and putting 4G on 1900Mhz. This has been completed in some larger markets.
Screen shot taken today in Las Vegas NV using SIM unlocked Vivid, WC custom rom, T-Mobile SIM on $30/month prepaid unlimited data plan.
Edit May 16. Just read somewhere else that LTE had previously been launched in Las Vegas. My original thought here was that I was hooked up to 1900mhz 4g and for whatever reason the LTE icon was displayed. Now I can't say for sure if it was 1900mhz HSPA+ or was actually T-Mobile's new AWS LTE.

I read the linked post, but have yet not found info on How I can do a sim/carrier unlock to duplicate your scenario with a Vivid?
Physically, you obtain an unlock code, put a non at&t sim in the sim holder and enter the code when the phone prompts.
AT&T won't supply an unlock code until your contract period has expired. Other conditions also apply. There are third party services that get the unlock codes directly from the cell phone manufacturing companies. There is a thread in the Vivid forum with a link to unlock for free. I found that service offline when I needed it so I went with www.freeunlocks.com - there are a lot of places out there. Virtually all charge a small fee. Find the one you are able to use and "trust".

I'm from the suburbs of Chicago, using Wal-Mart's Family Mobile plan, which is T-Mobile service. Just ran this speed test. We are indeed receiving HSPA+ speeds, not sure if its 850mhz or 1900mhz, but definitely getting GREAT speeds considering its only quad band

That's a good thing! Pay a few bucks to sim unlock it, and you can unlock the bootloader too on moto's site.
As long as the radio bands are compatible with your carrier.

I actually told cellunlocker that my phone was att and then I realized it was Rogers, I tried the code still and it worked. I get LTE on T-Mobile.

It may be both. I'll have to chat with AT&T and see what they say. It is maybe my phone? I read that the XT1053 is missing certain LTE bands that the XT1058 has. But then again like I said, my S3 had the same speeds.

Here's what I found from GSMarena... There's 850 for LTE missing it looks like... I think I'm reading that correctly? Lol

Haha I know how you feel.. I've got at&t too on my xt1053 but rarely around LTE so haven't noticed.. And welcome

I actually used to live in Cleveland, but moved back to the DC area about a year ago. I remember getting two to three times the speeds you're getting on LTE, but then again, I was using an iPhone 5 back then.
Bought a Moto X Developer Edition XT1053 and have been getting strong LTE coverage so far within the DC metro area.

[Q] is there any different between NET10 and t-MOBILE

1.both are XT1095?
2.the of Type SIM card is different????
3.if i buy the NET10 ,but i did not used its wireless ,could i used my own (T-MOBILE SIM) to actice it in the first time ?
There is no differences between the two. They are both XT1095. They are the Pure edition.
Your TMO sim will work fine as long as it is a micro.
I am sure Moto gets a kick back for having either a Net10 or TMO sim.

If I am not mistaking both options are the pure. Just one comes with the NET10 and one comes with the TMO sim.

I've check the model of this phone(some one have got it),and the version really is xt1095!!!!!!!!thx!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:
Maybe a 1093 phone with a 1095's firmware?Just check the bands of 1093 and 1095, the main differences are band 3 and 7. If moto flash a pure edition system on 1093, US net10 users wouldn't feel different ,because band 3 and 7 don't make any sense to them,but those whose carriers use the two bands should care about this.

Cannot unless u can post the phone's details of network. Even moto did what I posted, ur t mobile Sim would work, because 1093 also covers the TMO LTE bands.

TA1005 band 12?

Does TA1005 model have band 12? Some sites say yes, some no? Thanks

I might have an answer to this. I recently bought a TA-1005 SS HK 11A1NB21A05 variant. On the box label it lists these LTE Bands 1/2/3/4/5/8/12/13/17/20/28/38/40/41.
This is odd because for some reason Nokia Support when I last checked stated that there were no variants of the Nokia 8 Sirocco available that supported US LTE bands. On the box label it clearly shows otherwise. Other sites and LTE band checking sites are conflicting too.
Do you know if there is a way to check band locking or available bands from a diag menu? I know of the Info menu available from the dialer, but maybe there are other hidden menus to confirm this with.

To follow up on this I see wifi calling and VoLTE provisioning are good. I still don't know officially if band 12 exists but the phone works fine on T-mobile.
