AT&T buys out T-Mobile - Windows Phone 7 General

I wonder how they'll reconcile their 3G/4G frequencies ?
...and who'll get what line of phones?
AT&T should have had the DVP and HD7.
News story here...

There is a thread about this in the HD7 subforum as well...

I didn't see this one coming. Did you see the proposed LTE build out maps?! Talk about awesome! AT&T will smoke everything out there if they're true to their word. Hopefully even more phones to choose from and much better coverage.
Downside is that there won't be a cheap cell phone company anymore. T-Mobile's plans were much cheaper plus unlimited data. I doubt AT&T would keep those. If this gets FCC approval, I'm wondering if I shouldn't jump ship to T-Mobile later this year and lock in some cheaper plans. Hopefully, they'll grandfather people in.
Oh, and someone posted on Engadget that the new company should be AT&T&T.
How do you like this rendition of a new logo? Something I whipped up:

I did some further research and found that Clear has a coverage map showing Santa Barbara as having coverage.
This is promising as I've been looking more and more closly at Verizon... but I'll be faithful and wait!
Sweet.
I live in Poughkeepsie, NY and as far as I knew there was not 4g/Wimax here. I turned my radio on the other day and It popped up with a single bar of 4G.
It got consistent 5meg down, 3 meg up, which is more than enough for just about anything I'd be doing on the phone.
I'm really looking forward to hearing from Sprint next month as to what their plans are for coverage/4G LTE rollout. The most recent info I read said the Epic 4g Touch is equipped for 800mhz LTE, I Just hope they push coverage as fast as Verizon has been.

THIS is what I want to upgrade to! Galaxy S4 with Snapdragon 800

(Sorry for the weird URL title, but thats what they made it)
Please come to Sprint, please come to Sprint, please come to Sprint
Pretty sure they said CDMA devices will be released a month after ATT & T-Mo (GSM)

I wonder if Sprint and the other carriers would release this considering the GS5 will be out not too later, assuming the updated S4 becomes available for purchase near the end of the year.

Did they ever wind up selling the S2 Plus?

Carrier unlock sprint version?

Is there anyway? or no?
Not like GSM phones with a SIM card, but you can flash it to prepaid carriers such as Boost, Virgin Mobile, Page Plus, Ting, and others. There are guides in the General section on how to do this.

Which carrier are you interested in going with? Straight Talk now has a program called 'Bring Your Own Phone' and they let you bring certain devices from other networks over to their network with no hassle. I was searching for ways to flash my old Sprint Epic 4G Touch to Straight Talk last night, and then discovered that all you have to do is call them, pay a network access fee ($15) and they'll activate it on their network.
Don't quote me on this, but I think the $15 is for an "activation" and it is $50 to flash over. That is how it was for cricket at least, but I flashed it by myself for the person I sold the phone to. Honestly not near as hard as I thought it would be,

I'm looking to switch over to AT&T but...

Hello. I'm looking to switch over to AT&T from Ting for various reasons. One reason is because Ting's data doesn't work in certain areas around where I live and I'm looking to start a new with a new carrier with better overall service and a much wider service area. I’m bringing my unlocked LG G3 over to AT&T. I just selected the SIM Card I will need and I am now on the page that shows all of the plans. I selected the 2 GB Plan for $30.00 a month. Under that it has the AT&T SIM Card - LG G Series. And next to that it says $25.00/mo. access charge. Is this a one-time fee or a monthly fee? This is the part that I don't really understand. The total price per month is $55 but is this a one-time thing?...

Will the Chinese version work in USA networks

Good morning guys. I am no professional when it comes to phone bands, network, etc. So I would like to ask for some help. I recently purchased a Chinese version of the one plus 3 and will use it in the USA under T-Mobile. Seller said in his item description that it will work in t-mobile, AT&T just fine however I did my research and found mix answers some say it does some say they don't.

Yea but I also asked seller and and he said this "In the America,4G LTE(FDD) Network Only Support T-Mobile and AT&T,Not Support Verizon and Sprint" btw I received the phone today but am afraid to open it and find out it doesn't work. Hard to talk to these eBay sellers sometimes. I just want the assurance
T-Mobile
AT&T
Aw so it means it not. That sucks seller telling me it does work. I'll have to return it and look for a USA version of the phone
