St has a smartphone from lg i think that runs on att. Better yet, it's only about $80 (don't remember what my brother said the exact cost was). I've wanted to see if it will work on my Captivate, but i can't seem to get in the same room with him to try it out.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jpcdeux:
Wow. That BS was way too much work. Just add settings in apn. I made a thread of it a while back when I had straight talk.

*edit* Pics are gone. Forgot and deleted from Photobucket. Ill find repost apn settings.

TIP: Buy a water damaged one off eBay. Get phone call St, they'll send you a new sim. Call to activate new sim with serial # off damaged phone. Throw phone in drawer, put sim in Inspire and enjoy.

---------- Post added at 08:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:01 AM ----------

Go to Settings>Wireless & Networks>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names.....press the menu button on your home row(the appearance and position may vary depending on the phone...consult the user's manual if it's not obvious). You should now have the option to create a new APN.

Fill in the following fields(note that this info creates TWO APNs). Do not change the defaults in the other fields.

First APN

Name

HOME

APN

att.mvno

Leave everything else alone EXCEPT the bottom selection that says:

APN type (here you must enter the following)

default,supl

Then save, next choose to add another APN

make it look like this:

Name

MMS

APN

att.mvno

skip down to

MMSC

http://mmsc.cingular.com

MMS proxy

proxy.mvno.tracfone.com

MMS port

80

skip to:

APN type (enter the following)

mms

THEN SAVE

Then select the APN(you won't be able to select the MMS one....this is normal)

Then reboot the phone.

Done.

Note: If you experience issues with MMS use the above info to create just one APN. Just be sure to leave the APN type blank or whatever the default is. Like this.....

Name

Straight Talk

APN

att.mvno

skip down to

MMSC

http://mmsc.cingular.com

MMS proxy

proxy.mvno.tracfone.com

MMS port

80

THEN SAVE

Then select it and reboot.

Based on this information, I can use a 4G phone on ST but will it get 4G speeds with ST or will it be 3G?
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
4G is nothing more then a gimic. It will not get true 4g which LTE but then the phone isnt able to use LTE at all anyway
[HTC Inspire 4G] jpcdeux:
Amen! Its amazing how few people understand that.

You will get "3.5G" lol
[HTC Inspire 4G] Hirudin:
In case anyone is wondering if the two methods offered in this thread are different in any way: I tried both the method described in post number 5 and the settings from post number 25. I used APN Backup and Restore to compare the settings and, as far as I can tell, they're identical.

Also, I created a new thread that focuses on the Galaxy Note with screenshots and stuff, if anyone needs them.
[HTC Inspire 4G] vroomonurface:
Am I missing something here, because I see you can buy a sim card directly from st( www.straighttalk.com/ShopSims) for att phones and they even offer instructions for changing the apn so why would I need to do anything mentioned in this thread?
[HTC Inspire 4G] MMM-BACONSTRIPS:
you don't then? it's a work around/fix. If the directions they send you don't work then you know where to look for help.
[HTC Inspire 4G] vroomonurface:
Well I didn't see any mention of anyone just buying the sim card itself, is this something new maybe that makes buying one of the other phones unnecessary to make the inspire work? I gave att the finger last month due to data throttling and this would be awesome if I could use it on st by only paying 15 bucks extra for a sim card.
[HTC Inspire 4G] buggme:
is in a post i started, I been using Straight Talk for over a year now on the Inspire now. and before that I used it on a Iphone.

all I ever done at first, I had the Nokia E71 took Sims out and it would work with any mods, only had to change APN,

NOTE: ever phone I used was a ATT. I even tryed it in a Flip Phone, but no APN.

I use APN Backup & Restore.

( thats before I rooted it)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
Previously you had to trick straight talk into letting you use your unlocked phone by using a special sim for their nokias. Seems now they allow you to use your phone.

My question is what kind of speeds are you getting and is it really unlimited?
[HTC Inspire 4G] buggme:
yep, a good friend just ordered 1 ATT Sims, and one for Unlock phone. he said it cost $15 for each one and took less them 30 mins for both. the APN setting was also sent.

I can't remember what the 2 phones he has.
[HTC Inspire 4G] vroomonurface:
Well I'm going to try this at the end of the month with my inspire, ill e sure to follow up with the results!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Ephemeralness:
Just signed up and activated this today. Kept my AT&T number too. It was easy and so far haven't noticed any difference in service. I'll keep you posted on that. I don't use mobile data too much but so far it seems to be on par with what I was getting from AT&T as far as speed.

It's nice to be free of a contract, pay less, and still have my beloved Inspire. :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] Simba501:
When you get a chance, can you share speedtest results? No screen cap necessary or anything, I'd just like to know what you're seeing.

Sent from my Galaxy SII
[HTC Inspire 4G] Ephemeralness:
So far it's not much different than AT&T. Around 2-3mb down and 1mb up. I'll give it a couple of days to make sure.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
I checked out their website and they have a totally different coverage area for Android and non-Android. What is up with that? I know straight talk is both CDMA and GSM. Maybe the CDMA (verizon) coverage is non_android and the GSM (ATT) coverage is android.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
Just read through Straight Talk's Terms and Conditions. "F" that. Read #6. Better off with ATT.

http://www.straighttalk.com/controller.block?__blockname=straight.static.terms
[HTC Inspire 4G] Ephemeralness:
Eh, doesn't bother me. I don't do any of the stuff they are telling you not to do. It's still half what I pay AT&T for me to do the same thing I did before.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tyates:
I had the Nokia E5 on straight talk for about 6 months, averaged about 2-2 1/2 gb of data a month. They also sold the phone with the WIFI hotspot preloaded so, it was a factory straight talk feature.

Long story short, im back with ATT. They canceled my service, forfeited the remaining 28 something days i had paid for and banned the IMEI of the Nokia phone to NEVER be activated again on ST. Be careful people, when asked what they considered to much data usage. I was told i used more then the average user. I spoke with managers and their managers for 3 days and couldnt get a answer on what is considered to much.
[HTC Inspire 4G] will1384:
We just switched from ATT, with ATT we were paying $80+ for two phones, no Internet,

no texting, nothing but voice and a few hundred minutes with rollover minutes, now I am

on the straight talk $45 bring your own sim, and the 2nd phone has the $30 plan.

I have only had straight talk a few weeks, but from what I can tell its using

the same towers as ATT and I have the same call quality as when I was with ATT.

I have read of a few people getting cut off for using large amounts of data,

but I think that most of them were "streaming" or "tethering" and thats why

they got cut off, I don't watch streaming video on my phone, I don't listen to

streaming audio, I just use Google Maps/Navigation and browse some webpages.

I use wifi at home, but have used some mobile data, I used Google Navigation

on one 60 mile round trip, and maybe 2 to 3 hours of reading webpages, 3D Watchdog

tels me I have used about 33mb, so if I only use about that much everyday, that would

only be about 1GB every month, so I should be safe, but yea they need to "clearly"

label data limits and acceptable data use, like in big bold letters on the straight talk

main page, and in the straight talk's FAQs.
[HTC Inspire 4G] racerj782011:
straight talk works great

ive got a htc inspire using straight talk service and ive had no issues what so ever. Any GSM phone that uses a sim card (att, tmobile) will work. ive rooted my phone running revolution rom with download speeds about 3.0-3.2 mbps.

:D
[HTC Inspire 4G] mcg177:
Straight talk actually sells the sim cards separate now for people to put in any GSM phone so I would believe that there unlimited plan is just Like the rest were your data will get throttled at some point

Here is the link to it

Straighttalksim.com
[HTC Inspire 4G] cardsandchips:
Most AT&T phones do not need to be unlocked to work with the $45 or $60 per month sim card.

You activate your sim card and create a new ST APN.

Instructions are included with your sim card.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cardsandchips:
craete a new apn and everything will work for you!
[HTC Inspire 4G] andrewnelson23:
So when I get this phone soon, all I have to do is put my straight talk sim in it and adjust the APN and it'll work? I don't need to unlock it? Cab anyone confirm that?

Also, do I need to get a normal sim or a micro sim?
[HTC Inspire 4G] kurtg:
Hi,

The inspire uses the regular size sim, not the micro sim. You can enter the apn info manually, or you can do it the easy way....When you activate the sim, connect to your wifi so you can access the play store. Download "Tweakker" and it will set the apn for you.

Hope this helps....

[HTC Inspire 4G] lil_wayne99:
If I get the AT&t sim off eBay. Say I use it in one phone. Can I take that same sim out and use it in another phone?
[HTC Inspire 4G] enigma2446:
Yes as long as it's a Att device it should except it. You are talking about Att right?

---------- Post added at 02:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:36 AM ----------

For example I have my inspire from Att and I'm using the straight talk Att sim and the sim that came out of it I put in a cheap go phone and that's that.
[HTC Inspire 4G] lil_wayne99:
Thanks. It may not be a AT&t branded phone. But it would be a compatible unlocked international phone if not. So that should work too.
[HTC Inspire 4G] enigma2446:
Yes if it's a unlocked gsm phone u can use any gsm carrier as long as the bands are correct to the specs of the phone most newer phones are but there are older ones that won't work on USA frequencies. Out of curiosity what phone are you wanting to use I can tell you yay or nay.

Actually you would need a bring your own phone sim card from straight talk. And then you would need to add the new apn to your phones Access Point Names. I tried this and had no issue with it.

Good luck with that, last I checked there were no tablets out there (at least in terms of Android 3.0+) that will allow you to make phone calls with them unless you use Skype (or mod it to allow making phone calls nativity.

I have heard that Samsung Galaxy Tab does allow you to make phone calls but I haven't tested myself and don't know if the newer Tab 10.1 (not sure if it's out yet or not) will support the phone features either since the Tab 10.1 will have 3.0.

you have to be logged out of Google talk on your xoom. Also, make sure that in your gv settings you have it set to google chat rather than your mobile number. Not sure if that made any sense, but they explain it step by step in the help section.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyoteqwik:
That's the same problem that I was having. You have to log on to google voice settings using your web browser for the log in to chat settings.

My problem was that I was logged into google talk on my xoom.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StrifeSoldierVII:
I forgot about that. Well I am there on the web browser version of voice and I am a bit confused as to what I need to do exactly. Am I setting up a new number?

I do appreciate the help a lot.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyoteqwik:
Not really sure. When I go to google voice on my browser and then click on the setting tab in upper right corner and then choose voice settings, I can then click on the phones tab, that is where I am able to choose google chat.

Hope that helps, that's about all I got.

I will add that my calls work a lot better for the other party when I use bluetooth.
