Will the htc one x international. Version. Work. On stright talk
Shouldn't be a problem. If you get an international you can get the appropriate sim card from straight talk and be good to go.
I'm activated on straight talk with no problems. Just be sure to order the ATT compatible microsim. The only hard part is making sure you type in the APN setting correctly.

how fast is the data speed on straight talk
I get between 1mbps and 2mbps depending on where I'm at and what time I run the tests. It's not amazing but it sure is faster than I was getting on Sprint's network. How fast you get is determined mainly by how good AT&T is in the area. Check the coverage on att.com/coverage and check if your area has been updated to '4G'.
I'm not sure if real AT&T subscribers get better speeds or not. The APN that you use isn't one of the '4G' APNs that you'd have provisioned on the account if you signed up with AT&T and got a 4G HSPA+ data package. I need somebody with an iPhone around here to let me grab their SIM so I can run a few tests, as the iPhone data plan provisions both the 4G HSPA+ APN and also the standard APN that feature phones use.
wow! i didn't even think about ST before. i thought there phones were like CDMA phones without a sim. they offer unlimited everything but international for 499/year, which is under 42 per month. that beats Red Pocket's 59.99.
but will i get full ATT 4G/H+ with their sim? it just says mobile web. we don't have LTE, and i don't want it anyway. i only have 2gb to use. i sent ST an e-mail, but i'd rather hear from someone on here actually using it.
EDIT: i guess above is a close enough answer. i just don't want to be staring at loading web pages or buffering Youtube videos.
I just did this. My international OneX will be picked up at Fedex after 2pm today.
I wont get my sim card from straightalk till friday or saturday.
I have been a Tmobile customer for years and did not want to go to AT&T. Nor did I want the One S. I was bummed Tmobile was not getting the One X.
So I chose Straight Talk and will be leaving tmobile.
I will report back once I have everything up and running and let you know how it all works out.
From what I have read in the straight talk forums you should get full speeds. I could be wrong though as I have never used AT&T or Straight Talk so take that with a grain of salt.
Also - I have read you should not Tether your phone or they will cancel your service. Its also advisable to stay around 2GB of data a month. Some people report no problems with more but since I only was using around 1GB a month on Tmobile this will not be an issue for me.
Straight talk does not get full "4G" speeds. It piggybacks on the AT&T network and the towers give priority to AT&T phones. You will get HSPA but not HSPA+

I just activated my one x on straight talk a couple days ago. Using the standard straight talk att.mvno APN, i am getting close to 6000kb down and 1300kb up. Granted, I am in a smaller market(Lexington, KY), but the speeds are absolutely incredible compared to sprint. Even on WiMAX I wasnt getting those speeds.
Im on straighttalk with a att white note and mines say 4G at the top. I think it does get hspa+

What are your upload and download speeds using speed test app?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I was getting 6mb down last night in chicago North Side
At work downtown its much slower. Maybe 2mb down.
Also - if you are using speedtest.net app. It somehow can get blocked. Way around this is to delete everything from the proxy line.
Worked like a charm.

i just ordered the $45 unlimited ATT micro sim. they charged some bs additional fees and it went over 60. i hope the months are really 45 each and not with hidden added fees tacked on. if it's not 45, then Red Pocket may actually be better. we'll see. :/
Isn't the microsim $15 and the mandatory one month plan $45?
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Yes, that is what I just paid...however, I still don't have service after activating the ATT micro SIM last night on-line. I called StraightTalk this morning and spoke to someone, who transferred me to the "Department that handles ATT Micro Sims for Non Straight Talk Phones" (That's what he said). He was not able to get anything working, gave me a ticket # and said to reboot and try again after another 24 hours?
Does anyone know if the HTC One X Asian Version (SingTel) falls under all the "International" forums?
Also, does the bootloader need to be unlocked for the Straight Talk ATT Sim to work? I didn't need to do anything to my TMO USA SIM, I just cut it and put it in...talk, text and web all work (Edge of course)
Thanks in advance for any input...
Is it 45 per month or more like 50? I hope it works on my 1x. If not I will take my 63.xx to red pocket.
My understanding is that porting a number over can take time, if that's what folks are doing. Even Google Voice warns about a possible 24 hour delay, if I remember correctly. For better info re Straight Talk try Howard Forums.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Thanks for the info...mine is a new number, no porting involved. I will check out the Howard Forums and hope to find some help there. Straight Talk is useless...

I actually just took my eg4t and flashed it to straight talk wireless instead. $45 unlimited everything(although they are supposedly cutting people off that use more than 3-5g per month) It runs off Verizons towers so my speeds quadrupled over sprints crappy 3g speeds."

I PM'ed him,no reply yet as to if there is a way to do this without paying to have this done.
Id save over a 100 a month if I could switch my lines to straight talk. Im kind of interested in this also, but its something ill want to do myself and not through ebay.
For Android phones, Straight Talk uses Sprint. They signed a contract back some months ago. They are not ties to a specific provider and will use what makes sense for them, so it could change over time.
Well these phones when flashed use the verizon network. There are lots of youtube videos where they call some number and it tells you the provider.
So i'm seeing that this is a paid for service only (to have phone flashed to ST)
Interesting. 2 people I know with ST, and both phones have SIM cards. Granted, both are clamshells, but good to know.

I bought two ST phones last year, the Samsung qwerty slider, and the one that looks like a blackberry. They were both cdma and ran off the Verizon network. They had bars where my sprint phone did not. I guess different regions use different carriers to piggy back on. There is no T-Mobile coverage in a 10 mile radius where I live.
Here you go:

I'm sure Straight Talk is willing to use whatever makes the most sense for them so I wouldn't be surprised if they switch stuff around over time.
Maybe this process goes around that? But I have confirmed that these phones do work on the vrz network.

I have my ET4G running on prepaid Platinumtel. You can take any Sprint (Android is easiest) phone and "hack" it to run on any Sprint MNVO network easy (with some diligent research on the web) such as Platinumtel, Virgin etc. I can't say how here, only that it can be done

You have to start the port process 24 hours before the idiot starts the flash process. It's not really a flash though.
It uses the verizon towers, no question. You can change around your prl's to determine which towers you wish to use.

Hello
Located in NYC
I was at the T-Mobile Retail store to test the Galaxy S2's speedtest.net.

Thank you for your reply. I will try to call 611 asking for a free SIM. That stupid rep did not allowed me to get a free SIM.
Some stores have 3G cell sites built into them, which will give the phones in the store faster speeds than just outside the store.
I tested the phone with old sim card in NYC back in Dec. In chinatown it avg. 18-21mbps in Brooklyn was much slower, 5-8mbps. I got it used so no updated sim card that came with it. Now back in Puerto Rico where im now, its 8-10mbps. Im guess some part in NYC takes advantages of new HSDPA+ and some parts not.
Time of day, network traffic, signal strength, apps running on your phone, the cell site itself...these are all variables that can cause variance in data speeds.
personally, i think the Speedtest.net app itself is buggy. I can be in the same spot, run 3 tests, and get 3 different results. I've also run tests with the same type of phones sitting next to each other, and get completely different results.
Not all sites are pushing out the same speeds. Some may be pushing 42mb/s, while others may still be doing 21mb/s, and there are probably even some 7.2mb/s sites in "4G" cities. You can probably drive down the street and get a drastically different result.
Although the SIM that came in the box is new, you shouldn't see drastic changes in your old SIM vs the new one unless your old SIM was more than 2 years old. T-Mobile updated their SIM cards a few years back to better connect with the 3G/4G network. The SIM that came in the box (GBA SIM) is required for the Wi-Fi Calling, but that's it.
I live in Brooklyn, and my new white SG2 should be coming via UPS tomorrow (hopefully early in the day!). Will post results after I get the phone. Question - if the phone comes with its own new SIM, how do I get my info/acct transferred to the new SIM? Can I do this over the phone or do I need to go into a TMO store? In the meantime I can just pop in my old SIM and use it right away, correct?
Also, FWIW, on my MT4G I always get consistently faster speeds in Manhattan vs. Brooklyn. In my apartment I usually float around 3-5 mbps. I'm hoping I'll pick up a little extra with the SG2 but who knows...not a big issue though since when at home I usually hook up to the wifi.
You definitely need the new Sim. And that broad on the customer line lied. The Sim DOES matter.

@Sunsean, if you are coming from a mt4g, you probably don't have any info on your sim card.

Then call customer care (or go into a store) to have your new Sim that came with the phone activated.

You should look at the prepaid thread in my sig. It details all of the plans and there are lots of testimonials of people using them.
Common wisdom is that the Straight Talk plan caps at 2gb per month (theres no way they could do 5gb data at the $45 price point).
If you want more data you're either going to have to go with the $60 Simple Mobile plan, which gives 5gb+, or the T-Mobile Prepaid plans, 2 of which offer 5gb (then throttle).

so you are sure the simple mobile plan gives 5gb before throttling? Cannot find any definite number on their website just like straight talk. On tmobile/att/cincinnati bell websites it tells you the amount of data used where you will be throttled. At least they are up front about it.

It's not published, but just crowd-sourced that they offer 5GB of data. Many MVNOs choose not to publish whether or not they throttle/cap or at what point.
So after 5gb are you throttled or are there overage fees? Im assuming throttled since it's called unlimited. And simple mobile uses tmobiles network, correct?

You choose when you start the service whether you're going to get an AT&T SIM or a T-Mobile SIM (they can pick for you based on your zip code, but you can choose manually). You can't bounce back and forth, because the SIM is only provisioned for AT&T towers or T-Mobile towers. There's no roaming between the two.
When you order, its easy to tell. In the cart it will say "AT&T compatible SIM card" or "T-Mobile compatible SIM card".

I am now using my Galaxy Nexus with Straight Talk on the TMO ST SIM card. Overall its great. One thing I've noticed though are the ping times. On ST I can never get a ping better than 300ms using the speedtest.net app. Also several times when I've woken my phone from idle, I notice it says its not in sync with Google services...the bars are grey and not blue. It usually goes blue again within 30 seconds saying it synced. I think it may be related to the ping issue, as I think ST data goes through a proxy before going out over the TMO network to destination. The data speeds themselves seem the same as they were when I was on Tmobile, but I seem to recall being able to get around 100ms pings or less in the same locations when I was on Tmobile.

Thanks for the input. I am game for Strait Talk...just ordered before I read your reply. Good to see fellow console moders out there with the good devices in hand.
I plan to buy the Note 2 from AT&T at full price and use the phone with Straight Talk since Straight Talk offer better deal.
My question is will I get LTE signal with Straight Talk? I have heard that Straight Talk uses AT&T cell tower. Is this true?
Straight Talk is limited to HSPA+, no LTE.
Kevin Tofel of GigaOM has written about straight talk's pros and cons. He's been using straight talk for a while now and it works for him. check it out what he said:
http://gigaom.com/mobile/straight-talk-it-could-let-you-dump-att-or-t-mobile/
Along with no LTE this is the other key deciding factor for me:
"For $45, Straight Talk advertises unlimited voice minutes, messages and HSPA+ data (There’s no LTE support, even if your phone is capable of using AT&T’s LTE service). Based on user-reported experiences, Straight Talk won’t cut you off provided you keep your monthly usage to 2 GB or about 100 MB per day. Hit either of these and you might get a message about excessive use, along with the threat of service termination. History shows that I use about 1 to 1.5 GB of mobile broadband a month on my phones (I use Wi-Fi a ton), so this works well for me. If you want truly unlimited data or use more than 2 GB per month on your phone, this isn’t the plan for you. Don’t even try it, would be my recommendation."
If there is no LTE with Straight Talk, would it be better for me to get Straight talk with the T-mobile Note 2 since T-mobile's HSPA+ speed is faster than AT&T (42 Mbps vs. 21 Mbps )
It depends on the area you're in.

It would work but if you are going to buy the phone unlocked, I would try to look into the international version. You will get faster updates that way.
I let a friend that uses straight talk in my area put his SIM into my GN2 last night... I can confirm that this works... Also... He is using an iphone 4 and has intermittent MMS issues... No issues sending or rcv'ing pictures using his sim and my phone.
Thats what happens when you buy crapple
