How long have you had your phone? I just got mine 3 days ago and a quick read through the manual said Verizon will unlock the SIM after 60 days of use. They at least want something out of having a customer purchase a world phone from them.

Pre-paid SIM Worked Without Unlock Code?

I got an unlock code from AT&T, but I was never prompted to enter it after putting an H2O Wireless SIM card in my GS3. I'm able to place/receive calls and get data after entering APN settings.
My phone is rooted, but I didn't think it was already unlocked. Maybe I missed something. Any ideas? Thanks..

Did you buy the phone from someone else or an official retailer brand new in the box? If the former, someone may have already unlocked it. Otherwise did you perform the JB unlock method via the services menu?

I purchased the phone new from AT&T and rooted it a few days later. I never did the JB unlock.

Prepaid or postpaid... They all work as long as they are same phone service provider. Try a different network n see if that works.
Its a network lock, not a service/plan lock.

I guess that explains it, since H2O uses AT&T's network.

About Sim Card's

Sorry for being a noob, but this is my first GSM phone.
Do i have to activate the service first before my phone picks up that i have a sim card in? (Simple Mobile)
Because as of now, my phone keeps saying "no sim card" in the notification bar.
I used this guide to unlock my phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34661189&postcount=1
Thanks.

The service has to be activated before you put the sim in. Else it will my never be able to latch on to a network

s4 wont read simple mobile sim card

Im trying to get my simple mobile sim card to work on the T-mobile galaxy s4, i bought the phone straight out of wal-mart. The phone says no sim insert sim card. help would be much appreciated

Make sure you push it all the way in and also make sure your sim card is activated, is not defective, and it might be that the phone isn't for tmobiles network? It sounds dumb but some phones when they're not part of their carrier it says that.. And that's all I kno...

Simple Mobile is supposed to be on T-Mobile's network.

Network Availability

Hi
i have just purchased one of these bad boys in the 4g flavour but my carrier is 3 mobile so data is blocked as my sim is a phone sim and not a data sim
so anyone in UK can you please tell me what network you are on where you get full data calls and text
Much appreciated
Thanks
Lee

Hi Lee. Isn't it just a regular sim? Is it on contract or payg?

You can put in the phone Sim card with no problems. If you need to manually enter the apn, it's three.co.uk.

APN is already set to three.co.uk
I also have a letter H+ with data arrows flashing up and down
Not a huge response to my query, all I am asking is anyone using a note 8.0 as a phone.
I can go with watever network allows phone sim to work in a tablet but it will cost me a top up to find out who will work
Thanks for your help

If it's unlocked, then all sim cards should work. I've used it with a 3 sim and also a virgin mobile sim.
