People should really get out of the habit of using marketing catch-phrases with "G's" in them. There is no 3G or 4G. There is HSPA+ and there is LTE. GoPhone does NOT offer LTE service (yet), but you WILL get HSPA+ service.
Who is the video on hspa+ is like tmobile or faster

Video on 4g/HSPA+ is smooth and skip free depending on your area.

I work for AT&T, the largest Gophone data plan right now is 1GB. If you stuck a Gophone SIM in the N2, there's a chance the data wouldn't even work. I've heard this from many customers with various smartphones. Talk and text works but data doesn't. Not sure why. But as stated, no LTE for Gophones right now.

So all this time I thought that Straight Talk was ATT strictly.. til my bro in law just told me I can purchase a T mobile Sim Card and use it.
http://www.shopstraighttalk.com/bpd...cards&zip=32707&market=GSM5&locale=en&lang=EN
45$, unlimited text mins and web, no contract. Does anyone have this Straight Talk plan with a t mobile sim card?
If so, what kind of Web Speeds do they offer? Is it T mobiles Hspa 42.2 mbps 4g or what?
Also is it truly unlimited web? or do they throttle after certain GB of use?

Just to confirm straight Talk does have limits on their "unlimited web"
They just don't specifically tell you when.. But when they do feel like you've used too much data they just throttle you. That's an email from them.

How much does it cost you a month?..I'm on straight talk and do far i like it but haven't really used it on the road yet..
I had Sprint last week and decided to get rid of them cause their data speeds was soooo bad.. so far though I'm happy with straight talk. The girl i bought my phone off she mentioned simple mobile which runs of T-Mobile towers. And idea about them?..
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
well, I am using simple Mobile $60. unlimited everything, but they throttle you when they feel you are using too much data. max speed I got around 16 Mb, by the way I live in Houston.

You're probably on the unlimited data with 5gb of 4g then after 5gb they throttle you.
But now t mobile has a data plan that is supposed to be truly unlimited.. No throttle

I've been using Straight Talk with the T-Mobile compatible sim for about 4 months now and I've never been throttled. I regularly use around 6-8gb of data a month and have never had any trouble. Speeds are exactly on par with what you get on T-Mobile.
However, there are rumblings of Straight Talk throttling on the AT&T compatible sim card.

Hey I'm thinking about switching to straight talk(atnt) from my current 5gb/100mins $30 t mobile monthly 4g plan.
The reason is because T-Mobile is very slow in my area of Brooklyn and I want to know if anyone can tell me their data speeds in Brooklyn. I have a T-Mobile galaxy s3 which is unlocked.
Thanks

Data cap on NET10 using an AT&T sim is 1.5GB
There is no 3G/4G or LTE service for NET10 on a Tmobile sim.
You would be stuck with 2G/Edge GSM network.
Have fun!
I thought it supported 4g on tmobile

I think he gave you wrong information.
But from what I have heard, you're able to get 3g and sometimes HSDPA on AT&T, but no LTE
and as for T-Mobile, You should be able to get 4g and is supposedly unlimited but people have said you might get throttled at 2gb? not entirely sure.
Hi,
i got my unlock tmo note 2 here and running tweaked rom and wanted to see if it can work with 3g or 4g prepaid carries over at china , i think unicom is the one i wanna go wth but will wait till you guys give me advice
Unlock it, a nd use other carrier.

One of the guys on the MT4GS board travels to China routinely. He uses China Unicom and gets 3g/4g speeds with his mt4gs. Should work well with the tmo us GN2.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
I use Unicom with TMo Note 2 in China, and it works well.

You can purchase prepaid cards there, like airports or malls.
Do you know any that offer unlimited data I mean I am going to be taking a lot of pictures and would love to have them sync automatically to my dropbox like I do over here

Just got back from China with note 2....bought a China mobile sim and it worked fine. They offer reasonably priced data plans and service is pretty stable. Don't forget to take advantage of free Wi-Fi there, you can enter the new phone number from China mobile sim to activate it at most places (ie Starbucks)

that's the point of unlocked phones
if China is 5G then your N2 can't see that kind of signal...but it still sees 4G-LTE and below
it just like N7000...international version but work just fine here....yet never sees 4G-LTE on its bar
Had Verizon for years, roaming in the US was free. Obviously forcing the phone to roam would result in bad things.
Does t mobile allow this in the US too? As in can I turn on the roaming feature and not get dinged?
Have the unlimited everything plan.

I live in an area with pretty horrible tmobile service, and previously depended heavily on tmobile's domestic data roaming.
Back in 2012 they did away with unlimited roaming, and their unlimited plan now gives you 50mb, after which you have no data roaming for the rest of the month.
Here's a recent article: http://www.fiercewireless.com/story...-roaming-services-simple-choice-pl/2013-10-25

I'm currently out of the country and I'm able to get unlimited roaming, although it's at a slow speed.
They'll give you unlimited data roaming if you go outside the US, but not in the US.

Depending on your specific data plan , you have certain amount of roaming data.
