Just picked up my g4. Its the sprint variant. I also have a nexus 6 which i know can be run on gsm networks as well as cdma. Is the g4 the same way. Can it be unlocked to run off my att work sim card?

Are you referring to the phone working on other bands not advertised on the phones box?

U guys can beat me up for this, for asking such a returd question.
Will the International gsm unlocked version work on Verizons network? Since verizon provides micro SIM cards?

One X also uses micro sim only so it should work without any problems as its unlocked.
I hope it will.

No. It will not work. Verizon uses sim cards as their LTE network is based on GSM BUT, they are a CDMA carrier.
To clarify: those sim cards are for their LTE network...but Verizon is primarily a CDMA carrier. The hardware on the One X is incompatible.

Are you.sure and has anyone tried it

Babydoll is right, at best you might be able to get data if their LTE network is based on GSM but no cell/txt/mms and that is at best. It is quite probable that none of it will work.
CDMA != GSM

So I am looking at purchasing a T-mobile s4 from a friend of mine and I was curious if after I sim unlock the phone is the phone itself compatible with Att I understand T-mobile started using Att bands just wanted to make sure before I bought the phone.

Yes, it will work.
You're actually better off getting the T-Mobile S4 as the new batch of AT&T S4s have their bootloader locked and can only achieve root, no custom recovery or ROMs.

I'm sure this has been covered, but I'm not finding it. Is the One SIM unlocked out of the box? I'm traveling to Spain tomorrow and VZW is telling me it will work, just slap in a local SIM card. I really don't want to wait until I'm over there to find out. Does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks in advance!

The local sim you use will have to be on a like network to vzw, don't think it will work on gsm network.

That's what I thought too, but I made it clear to the rep that it would be a gsm service. I guess if all else fails I can buy an unlock code and have it emailed to me.

I wanna say it has to be unlocked now... May need to change VPN settings but I think all of the new set phones can be used on gsm carriers. Not sprint though.

Forgive me, do you mean it should already be unlocked? I don't really care about data, but I'm going to need it to make local calls. I just don't want to get there and then not be able to do anything with it.

AFAIK the ftc forced Verizon to have unlocked phones if they want to use lte.

This is correct, its part of the contract that Verizon made: All LTE phones using the 700MHz band have to be SIM unlocked.
SIM is definitely carrier unlocked. In London now using a 3 SIM with no issues.
It is SIM unlocked. I'm currently using it on T-Mobile in the US.

How did you get it unlocked so fast, through T-Mobile? Just wondering, I also paid full price for mine.
Does the T-mobile Note 3 have the 850 MHz LTE band (like the ATT one does)?

I used this site http://www.unlockunit.com/
T-Mobile wouldn't give me a lock code. They said I had to wait 30 days.

I guess it does cuz I'm getting att LTE on the Tmobile note. I used cellunlocker.net and got my unlock code in about 15 minutes for 25.00.

So I know all Verizon lte phones a're unlocked now. So how can I get 4g and mms on mines. When I was using my Verizon iPhone 5 and my Verizon note 2 on metropcs they were working great. But now with my one it doesn't wanna work all I get is edge no mms. Everything else works great like sms calls voice mail etc. Would flashing something help? Please help.

you be better of using it on tmobile if anything
which apns did you put in
Well, the Verizon one may be unlocked, so you can put almost any SIM in it and have it work, but the hardware does not support all bands of LTE and/or frequencies.

Could always trade someone a Verizon HTC one for a t mo HTC one. Just because it's the same phone doesn't mean it has the same internals.
