I got a new phone and I want to set my note 3 up for my nephew. He currently has an lg nitro. Can I just out his SIM card in the phone and boot it up? Or do I have to take it to an AT&T store and have them change his number to the new phone?

I'm not familiar with the Nitro but if it a 4G lte phone and takes the same size sim you can just pop it in and go.
It is a 4g let and I believe it has a microsim

So I got a HTC one but didn't come with the 4g lte sim card, so the annoying notifications about no SIM can't be removed
My question is could someone get me a 4g lte sim card? Only reason I'm asking is cuz I'm not on sprint
Please and thanks

You should be able to use any sim card for it.
Nope I get the SIM lock

Can't you just buy a deactivated Sprint card?

I went into a corporate store and so they say they don't have them,he asked if I was a sprint customer and I told him I wasn't a sprint customer
So maybe they do just not for non sprint customers

I believe they're only for Sprint customers, since it's for sprint Lte...you probably need to use a SIM from whatever carrier you're on.

Not sure if anyone is gonna give you their simcard theres bound to be info tied to their account on it, so maybe see about buying a prepaid one for tmo or att or boost (if they have lte for it) and see if that works to stop message onlu cost you a month at lowest cost prepaid

I'm confused... I think we need to clarify some things here.
1) It sounds like you bought an HTC One without a SIM card, are you sure this is a Sprint HTC One? Why did it have no SIM?
2) Was your intent to get a Sprint SIM card and flash the phone to Cricket?
3) What are you looking to do with another person's SIM card?

1) yes I got it without SIM card and yes it's a sprint phone
2) I am already fully flashed to cricket, I just need a sim so this will go away
3) doesn't have to be someone active SIM, it could be an old one

Complete shot in the dark, and unlikely to work, but if you hold your finger on the notif, do you get an App Info option? If you do, you could deselect "Show Notifications".

Everybody does
I have a gnex with unlimited data, and just bought a Dev edition and I want to keep my unlimited data. So if I use verizons website and go to activate or switch device, will I be able to keep my unlimited data?
I just don't want to f*ck up when I use the website
Has anyone used the website to do this, and did it work?
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 4
If you're just switching devices you should be able to do it without losing your data plan. I did it many times when I was using VZW. However, you shouldn't need the web site if your phones are LTE. Just move the SIM to the new phone.

GNex uses Micro Sim while Moto X uses nano, so OP needs to cut the micro Sim or go get a nano Sim.
Sent from my XT1060 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
When i ordered the phone it said sim card included
I don't want to cut the card in case the Moto x ever breaks or whatever, so I can have a backup phone
So I guess I'll give the website a try

Website works fine, or just go into Verizon and tell them you want to change your phone. Did it at a store when I purchased my old Gnex off someone.
I switched mine on the Verizon website in about 2 minutes. You will need to use the SIM tool so you can pop your new nano-SIM out of your phone and read the number off it.
Unlimited data stays.
I've searched everywhere.. All throughout the q&a but nothing so my apologies if I missed it or if this was posted/asked again... But anyway is the sprint nexus 6 compatible with other carriers like straight tall or att, T-Mobile, Verizon? And if so will it get 4g LTE on those networks?

I also have a similar question. Can a sim card from an overseas carrier be used on a Sprint Nexus 6?
Im not too sure about your question but based on the following website, it seems positive.

yes. itll work on att, and sprint/verizon(if the imei gets put into their system since they are cdma carriers, or you put in a currently used nano sim). the tmobile nexus 6 is exactly the same as the one you buy from the play store.
I'm successfully using Straight Talk with the AT&T SIM on my Nexus 6 from Sprint. It's an unlocked phone despite what the guys at the Sprint store try to tell you.

you can't change it manually. it gets changed according to your service/sim card.
That's what I figured

I'm having issues getting my phone activated with Verizon, even with what I'm told is an already active nano sim. My phone tells me that it has no sim card on the lockscreen, and the sim info app shows nothing for the sim serial. I'm starting to wonder if my sim slot is just bad. I have done a factory reset to no avail
TLR Can someone that has a spare inactive nano sim pop it into their Nexus 6 and tell me it still shows that no sim is installed on the lockscreen?
Have to ask this question......is you sim in right??? Gold side up.

I bought a tmobile nexus 6 for my GF who is on verizon. She put her sim from her moto X into the nexus and it worked. Do not remember if it said no sim detected but i do remember her using it with the signal bar being greyed out most of the time.

Use the new one. Just call them and activate it, i did that. Might as well you paid for it besides you will have to call to activate the note 7 and let them know your using your old sim. Call will end right after they switch the sim and activate it on the new device so either way same thing.

I just put in the old card and turned the phone on and it's done
I heard new cards contain more stuff, so it's best to use the latest and greatest, just pop it in and dial 611, it switched in less than 5 minutes.

Yeah you don't have to activate the phone just the SIMS card. I'm using the same SIMs card on my Note 4 Note 5 and Note 7... just have to add the little adapter to put it back in the Note 4 to make it bigger
Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk
Sim card from my Note 4 didn't fit in the Note 7. Too big and couldn't be made any smaller. Had it since the Note 2 I believe.
