I received a hand-me-down Samsung from Verizon (it is Verizon brand, they didn't give it to me). I have a Motorola Droid Mini (XT1030), and I was able to replace the nano SIM with my own T-Mobile SIM. Is that possible with Samsung? Am I overcomplicating it?
With my Mini, I had to change the settings from Verizon APN to a custom T-Mobile APN, and change to a GSM-based network, so I know how to do that. I just don't know how to change SIM cards on this Samsung, because it seems the back doesn't want to come off.

He makes it look easy but the small gap between the phone and the back cover is hard to see. Just keep trying, it will come off. If i have just trimmed my fingernails ,like they are now, I use a pocket knife to pry between them, be careful and dont cut yourself or your phone or poke an eye out or anything like that. :laugh:
Sim card is the orange one in that video, the other is the SD memory card.
I am not sure about the specifics of all the bands T mobile has vs what a Verizon Note 4 is capable of connecting to but a quick google found this xda thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-verizon/general/verizon-note-4-t-mobile-network-t2916727
I am not sure what features and speeds you may or may not get but it seems it does work on the T Mobile network. Hopefully it will work well with just a few APN settings changes. Good luck.
I sold my Verizon S5 to my boss for T-Mobile here in Texas and she has no complaints. I believe the bands are the same from s5 to Note 4. I believe a band is missing, but she always gets super fast speeds and is never without service. I did update the apn upon selling, but I can't tell you what it is this moment as I had to try several before I got it all working.

Thanks for the response! I have co-workers that have the same model, and they have a little notch built in to the bottom bezel, meant for prying it off. With my Mini, the SIM card went into the volume keys, which I thought was really cool for an older phone. With the Samsung... I'm just gonna say it right here. I'm not the safest with a knife if I don't have a riot shield to protect me. :laugh:
Thank you for the links! And also, I have another phone used for media managing that I recently modded... Here's a screenshot to show just how cool it is. And if you don't see what I mean, you're not worthy of this phone.

Hi all, I just got my vogue last week and have been fiddling with it ever since. I didn't like the fact that it didn't have WiFi. I heard that Spectec was working on a Micro SD WiFi but no one seemed to know were to buy it. I thought I would make it easier to find this information. Forgive me if this is already posted. I'm going to play test dummy and buy one of these soon. Pictures will come soon if all goes well!
Link to Micro SD WiFi Card
how do you plan on fitting your back cover on after that is inserted?
I will probably have to cut the side a little. I'm not sure yet. Ill know when it arrives what must be done.
Do you have a data plan? If so, then why not buy a phone with wifi?
WiFi would usually give faster connections if one was available. Also Why not? It seems like a fun thought.

Yeah, you can always do something about that...
but what about storage space?
I don't think you need to cut the side. you can leave that side flap open and still have the back cover on. Although depending on how far that flap sticks out, I think solution would be prone to snapping it. you'd have to cacoon it somehow.
WiFi on the phone is pointless if you have a data plan. The newer models HTC Diamond and TouchPro have WiFi. But also think about the battery drain you would have when using WiFi.
True, I could just upgrade, or use my data plan for everything, but something about having wifi seems fun. If for anything, just to have it.

Second that. It is necessary for travelling out of country - can then use for browsing, VOIP calling, etc.
I had been in contact with SpecTec for several months now and their Vogue "tester" was unable to get the SDW-823 to work with the Vogue. I said let me have on let me give it a shot to see if I can get it working and they shipped one to me which arrived today.
I've been playing with it and have gotten it installed (drivers, etc) and it phone picks it up however it can't find any wifi networks. I'm standing about 15' away from an access point which my laptop is connected to.
I've got some more playing to do and am going to try some 3rd party apps but I'm not really sure why it can't pick up any networks at this point.
I'll post a couple pictures here after while and let you see how much it stick out the side of the phone.
sticks out a little bit...

Per this article, folks at "Mashable" uncovered a working cell phone with a T-Mobile sim in the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly meant to be a high-tech ad for the CW displaying live Tweets and crap like that. I was wondering if the inner parts were combined with another cheapo ABO Android phone, if this could be a working cell phone with 3G data and all? Or, if one could simply remove the T-Mobile sim and stick it in their GSM Nexus if they'd get working data/calls?
There are 1000 copies of the magazine scattered around LA and NY. I might try to search for one tomorrow when I'm in the city. If anyone sees one, picks it up, and sticks the sim in their GNex, let me know how it goes. Who knows how long the sim would be good for, or if it'll even work, but it might be worth trying, no?

it's a funny idea. i'll try to bring one for me!
Did you read the original Mashable article? You CAN make phone calls and use data on it. It's a real smartphone
It's probably using a prepaid TMo SIM with a month's worth of credit in it.
The 2 people in the Mashable vid were horrible! I was so angry listening to them talk.
It was only sent to subscribers, in the only two cities that "really matter", New York City and Los Angeles. Same as it was for that Esquire magazine e-ink cover and the CNN video ad which used a simple video player device with a small screen.
The CNN one was quickly hacked to play other videos. Wasn't much to do with the Esquire cover since it was made of fixed elements like a cheap LCD game toy.
The phone appears to be the guts of an Abo 810. Pretty junky little phone but what? It supports JAVA apps?
Why can't I have that on my Epic 4g? Would be nice to remotely access my printer's built in server from my phone but I can't because the phone OS built on JAVA doesn't have a full JRE, but apparently the Chinese came up with one.
I doubt much will be done with hacking those magazine phones with only 1,000 of them out there and likely the majority of them will get tossed in the trash within the next week or two.
Is any one brave enough to perform this mode on their new SGN II?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32593285#post32593285
I believe the little metal shield near the microSD slot is Sprint SIM-chip - it in the same spot as SIM slot on other versions of SGN II and it looks similar to the one in the above Motorola phone.
There is a dual SIM adaptor for this phone here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1952770
so theoretically it could be used to split the connection with Sprint SIM-chip and another real full size SIM
I would love to see the same thing. I was thinking about moving to the Galaxy Note 2 until I read about the embedded SIM. I hope Sprint backs away from this trend or at least someone can hack the Note to allow for SIM switching.

You will not see a real SIM card if that is what you expect yo see - It's an ASIC microchip.
the "SIM-chip" is clearly visible one of the posted pictures:

That original thread has couple videos with removal procedure, it would be exactly the same here.
Darkendvoid88, Thank you for posting pictures!!!!!
Ah, thanks for the clarification. Very daunting but at least I know it's theoretically possible. If only this was more practical!
It appears that you'd have to have the phone taken apart just to use the foreign sim card, which is impractical. Maybe it could be stuffed below or above the battery, of course assuming the little wires could fit through some crevice or crack somewhere in the back. Otherwise, this type of hack basically just makes it possible to find your favorite foreign sim card, stick it in and close the device back up.
When I traveled around Germany and the UK this summer, it was super convenient to just switch to the new sim when I needed but I don't see that this will be possible even with this type of hack. Damn!
The op just has it set up like that because the photon is sealed and has a "non removeable" back. There is little to no room for the sim reader. An extended battery back might make this easier for us. Also if anyone has ever taken apart an S2 there is a clip next to the battery terminals. Ours is the same dissassembly process and that clip could be broken off to allow for easy wire routing.

looks like the sim reader would go right in same place as the GSM sim version either trim the sprint case to model it the same as the GSM sim version or buy a GSM sim replacement case.

You can't simply replace the chip with SIM card slot. You will lose Sprint LTE. To make it right you's need to solder a dual SIM adapter instead of the chip, then solder chip back in to micro SIM slot of the adapter and use the regular SIM slot for other SIM you might want to use. The software that comes with an adaptor will help you switch between chip and the SIM

No u are exactly correct that chip controls sprint lte access but the good news is a secondary sim slot can be placed directly over it without much case modification you just have to wire it up and remove the metal block from the pcb cover Case also wireless charging is definitely in play due to the pcb is wired for it a lot of hardware modification promise

I am not a fan of the Iphone, but my wife has the 4s and I was able to call sprint to have them unlock the phone so we can use it overseas with another sim card. With that being said is the Iphone the only phone that has the slot to easily take out the card and replace it with another card if traveling overseas?
I wonder if the pcb boards or internals used in the Verizon version could be swapped out for Sprint? It would be pretty interesting if a Verizon version of this phone just required a transplant of the LTE sim chip.

I own this Photon and it worked well since it's unlocked for foreign sims but it won't see an update beyond 2.3 since Motorola won't upgrade it. GN2 is the phone I want to upgrade to but this embedded sim is my biggest problem with it.

Randy, Are you saying saying there is no need to remove the chip just solder wires from it's legs to SIM slot and switch with software?
Exactly someone would have to unlock it software wise but a simple soder hack and some super glue will allow it to be used directly on top of chip with wires straight to the right connections.. The chip cannot I repeat cannot be removed it manages the sprint frequency of lte and International roaming to remove it would take away ur ability to have lte but the positive is its not that locked down from what I'm hearing its a simple mod hardware wise. also the wireless hack is super super easy I don't understand why sprint left the tech for wireless charging in and routed correctly but removed the access to them. Go figure as soon as I get a device ill do some tinkering

I have to tear it down again tomorrow when I get to the store as I screwed up the rubber grommet that goes around the headphone jack (covering the hole atm). So if you guys need any more pictures of the chip / insides I'd be happy to oblige.
I used to switch the SIM cards manually in my old GNex, but this has become much less convenient with the SIM tray in Nexus 5. So I've decided it's time for a dual SIM adapter. Such as magic-sim, for example?
Has anyone tried it? Is it convenient to use? Does it fit with all cases? What about standing cases such as this one?
I am curious about this too. The magic sim says it is compatible with the Nexus 5 but I wanted to know if anyone had tried it.
Has anyone managed to get this and have it working?

I have the dual sim adapter that I originally was going to use for my nexus 4 but never tried to do the dual sim.
I've been trying, without success, to put where the sim and the piece under where the info of the sim card reads but keeps saying no sim card. I do have an easy time pulling the sim card out with the piece on the adapter. Keep watching youtube videos but I dont know if I wore out the electro thingies, dont know the technical term, when trying to match.
Does anyone else have any info / experience with a dual sim adapter for the nexus 5
I am in a situation where a second sim would help me out, but i dont want to have to manually swap them out.
Same here, I'd like to use a second sim in my phone if possible... Anyone know if this works?

I could post some this evening for sure.
It gets placed over the microsim in your phone then they together get put in the Sim tray and then folded over. Its paper thing so you slide that into the phone so you then have the second Sim dangling around. You put a full size Sim in slot two and bend it over the back side of the phone and sandwich Sim two in between the phone and a case. Its fairly thin and fits with the play store bumper well with just a little bulging.

So you tuck the second SIM in a case, instead of the phone itself... Thought as much, I had no clue as to how it would work otherwise.
Shame, actually, because I don't use a case (anymore).
I thought I could take the battery cover off and tuck it in there but the vibrator motor is in the way for it to tuck underneath
Hey guys,

Dual SIM adapter from .magic-sim com
Hi!
I've purchased Dual SIM adapter from magic-sim.com
It said the adapter was compatible with Nexus 5.
But now I realized that the phone does not have STK (SIM Tool Kit) - the application to switch between SIMs.
But it seems that the Nexus 5 detects the adapter because after applying it "SIM-1" appeared on top of the display.
So how to switch between the SIMs???
Mine has sim toolkit installed, stock rom.

This is more of a general ATT thread, but it does relate to my note 4.....
I have a one plus one, and my note 4 and from day to day I want the flexibilty to swap phones as I see fit. It used to be move the sim, and you're good. Lately, I've see issues when I moved my sim from phone to phone.
The first was last week, I bought an alpha clone off of craigslist and voice would work, but data would not. I dropped it back into my one plus one, and same thing, no data. Went to an ATT store, and they did an IMEI swap on my account and all was well in the world. Years ago, the IMEI swap on the carrier system kinda just followed the phones and wasnt ever an 'official' thing...but now it seems it is. Any ideas on this, can I swap my IMEI online with ATT?
Obviously I did a search on it, and it takes me to the ATT website, but it looks more along the lines of swapping when you've made an official order, not just because you want to. Am I missing something?
Change the sim card. When I went from my g2 to a nexus 5 I swapped the sim when I got the nexus 5 in the mail and data wasn't working ect. I go down to the AT&T store and talk to the same girl who's actually on the ball there and we found out that if you have an ICIS sim card it won't work on phones they don't sell. Just get a generic lte sim and see if that fixes it. Good luck!
The Sims that are blue are lte Sims don't get the ones that are purple those are isis

Is that what ATT is giving out by default now? I have a nano sim (that i got for that nexus clone) and it works fine in my OPO. If I put it in my note 4, I only get 4G, not LTE, which I thought was odd. I can do as suggested, just want to make sure I understand first...
All att Sims are lte capable but the purple ones are softcard (isis) compatible, meaning they have the correct security features for the use of isis enabled devices

Call customer care and give them the imei of a phone that supports lte and have them add that and just not change the sim

The Isis/Softcard is a problem as described above, but there's also a "nextgenphone" feature that goes on your account with newer phones (along with your normal data feature) and newer phones are using that with a related APN so it could have something to do with that new feature. Haven't figured it out yet but I'm playing with the system & I'll post what I find. So far all my secure sims have changed phones fine. My Gear S gave me a couple problems but I'm not sure if they were related.

Interesting. When I went to another ATT store a few weeks ago to change to a nano sim, the rep changed some codes on my plan. I got this in an email:
DELETED MOBILESHAREVSL64VT
ADDED MOBILESHAREVP20
Last night I went to a different ATT store than usual, and found out they were just a partner (though you could never tell it) and he said there were a few wonky codes on my plan, one of which mentioned something about APNs...so maybe youre on to something. He was under the impression it was grandfathered though, so it was old. He could, of course be wrong.
He also tried his SIM (oh and I have a non-secure sim) in my one plus one from his moto x 2014 and it worked just fine. LTE and everything. He put my sim into his X, and got 4G only, no LTE.
So he swapped me back into a non-secure micro sim, just to try things out again, and I left the store with my one plus one working. I came home, dropped it into my Note 4, and got 4G only, no LTE. When I put it back into my OPO, I got a text message saying I needed a new sim to work with my phones new feature. Weird.
The original feature is just normal mobile share data but I'll have to look up the second one I haven't seen that in the system. What i know is that once you put your sim in a newer phone (last few months) the system auto adds that nextgen feature & you end up either needing a secure sim or have to put the correct imei on the account

So that sounds like its our culprit.
If i have a secure sim for my note 4....can I move that to my OPO? I've heard no, but I've also heard yes...
I have been swapping my Sim card that I got with my Note 4 with my Note 3 Nokia 1520 and my Gear S. I have had data act up but only with the Note 4. Everything else has worked fine. In the Note 4 what I have done is add the older apn and toggle to that apn. Let it pickup the 4G lte icon or whatever it is. Got to phone app settings advanced settings and make sure you don't get an error. Then switch back to the Nextgen apn.
Worked for me.

For Christmas I got an iPhone 5s for my daughter,to replace her iPhone 4s.Its been so long since I've used an iphone. Christmas morning she opened it.I told her just swap your Sim card,she came back down kinda upset and said it didnt fit.Now I felt bad,ATT isn't open nothing I could do.I remembered once I took a Sim that was too small and crazy glued it to a iPhone 3g Sim tray and it worked.So I googled cutting an iPhone 5s Sim card,and there's actually a template you can DL and trace where to cut.For some reason my printer didn't want to work so used a ruler and the dimensions that were on the site,it was micro Sim to nano sim. I got really sharp heavy duty scissors and cut it,sanded the sides and corner,even the non contact side because the nano is like a hair thinner,fit right in sim tray and worked perfect.I've offered to give her my S5,nope lol these kids and there Iphones.And that phones IMEI was on my plan that day,it was an ATT phone from someone who recently got a 6plus that I got it from.
