[Nokia Lumia 900] Kenal0:
So if I put my iPhone sim into a Lumia 900 will it work?

I realize that it would be logging into the 3g network and not LTE.

I just want to be able to swap between phones and do not care about data speed.

Kenal0
[Nokia Lumia 900] kimck99:
Well shoot. I guess I'll enjoy LTE on my NEXT Nokia WP8 phone:).

Thanks.
[Nokia Lumia 900] romeo0119:
Yes it will work, you won't get LTE cuz iPhone doesn't support it but 3G will works fine, I used my vivid and iPhone on the LTE plan, no problem
[Nokia Lumia 900] kirdroid:
Wow that's great to hear :) then the AT&T rep was wrong?

So you had an LTE plan and you put that sim in an iPhone and able to get data on the iPhone? If this is the case then I'm s happy :)
[Nokia Lumia 900] romeo0119:
Yea I originally have the 4s when I picked up the vivid I called and have it switch over to the LTE plan, after I sold the vivid I took the sim card out and put it back in my iPhone and the Internet still works, no LTE on the iPhone of course, only 3g
[Nokia Lumia 900] cx1:
Was wondering if switching to LTE plan will screw up grandfathered unlimited?
[Nokia Lumia 900] CrownSeven:
Well if the ATT mgr I spoke to was correct, it shouldn't. He said my grandfathered iPhone unlimited data plan should carry over. It better otherwise I'll be one unhappy customer.
[Nokia Lumia 900] kirdroid:
Yes it will carry over. That was the first thing I asked when I preordered the Lumia 900.
[Nokia Lumia 900] aimfire72:
OK, I have a galaxy note, on the LTE plan... I ordered a sim cutter off eBay, should get here today or Thurs. After I get it and cut the sim, I'll try it out on my iPhone 4S and see what happens... will report back, lol.

I really don't think it will be a problem, switching the sim back and forth between phones... I say this because I used to use my iPhone as my main phone, and with a sim adapter, would switch between several different phones (Androids, HP Pre 3, HTC Titan, etc.) and never had any issues with automatic plan changes or billing, etc. Every phone worked fine with voice & data. Now I'm going to attempt the opposite using an LTE sim/plan in a non-LTE phone (iPhone and soon the 900). I assume it won't be an issue, but guess I'll find out, lol.

AT&T people will say that you *have* to be on an iPhone specific plan, but I don't think that's true - I think that's just what they are told by their bosses. As long as you already have a data plan, you *should* be good.

Side note: Had to exchange my galaxy note for screen issues and the AT&T reps will insist that they have to put the old sim in themselves and "activate" it in the system. I like to unbox stuff myself, don't want sales reps fiddling around with my new toys, lol. So last time, I told the rep I was in a hurry and would set it up myself later. Rep said "Are you serious??" and I laughed and said "yeah"! She looked relieved that she didn't have to do it, lol. Sure enough, got home, popped in my sim, and all was good - no need to have it "activated" by a rep if the sim card itself is already active. :)
[Nokia Lumia 900] Xbayx650:
Yea you should be able to switch devices. Just stay on the LTE data plan and you can move back to your iPhone at any time.
[Nokia Lumia 900] aimfire72:
Sim cutter arrived today. Cut my LTE sim and it's working fine in my iPhone. Still slow hspa speeds of course, but all is good. Think it will be just fine in the 900.
[Nokia Lumia 900] :
What brand of adapter are you using if you have to switch back? In my experience not all brands are equal. The last time I cut and was popping back and forth I tried four adapters and ultimately had to use tape. That caused a problem since the trays are set at a certain height...
[Nokia Lumia 900] aimfire72:
Generic brand, I guess - they are black hard plastic, from eBay. I also saved the leftover part of the sim card to use that as an adaptor as well, the cut micro fits back in there pretty snug.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Kenal0:
Put my iPhone 4 sim card in the Lumia 900. Phone portion works fine.

No data even though the Lumia shows all bars and says 4g.

Any ideas- APN settings?

I wanted to just swap the sim and see if I like the phone before switching plans

and I liked the idea of being able to use either phone just by swapping the sim.

Kenal0
[Nokia Lumia 900] JRBTempe:
Had the same issue with my iPhone 4S... a Google search turned up one small APN setting that did the trick: Under APN, type "phone" (no quotes). Restart and you should now have data, but sadly MMS send/receive fails. I went to AT&T about that and they provisioned the Lumia IMEI to work but said I'd have to do the same thing when I put the SIM back into the iPhone, but when I tried I was able to send an MMS from there as normal.

JRB
[Nokia Lumia 900] Kenal0:
Thanks. I will give that a try. Also there is an app called Network Setup under the Nokia collection in the app store that will allow you to put in the MMS Apn setting and then the mms should work. My problem is that the Nokia collection does not show up in the app store!

Hopefully it will soon.

Kenal0
[Nokia Lumia 900] JRBTempe:
Yes, I read about Network Setup but it doesn't show up when I search for it -- oddly, I DO have the Nokia Collection on my Lumia 900 but there's no such Network Setup app there. Seems like others aren't seeing the collection as well so maybe things are just slow to update on AT&T's end.

JRB
[Nokia Lumia 900] Kenal0:
The Nokia collection finally showed up but no Network App. Any ideas how to find this. It seems to be available everywhere but thru ATT.

Kenal0
[Nokia Lumia 900] codeworks:
So, correct me if I am wrong, but this is what I am hearing...

If I take my iPhone SIM out and install in the Lumia 900, Voice will work, but data will NOT work without changing the APN. Once complete, MMS will still not work.

However... If I take the SIM card out of a Lumia 900 (with LTE provisioned) and install in the iPhone, everything will work fine... Obviously, no LTE in the iPhone, but all should work OK?

This will work out good since I will get the Lumia tonight and then just use the SIM in my iPhone...

Is this correct? Thanks.
[Nokia Lumia 900] JRBTempe:
Have AT&T switch you to an LTE+VVM plan -- in my case this went from unlimited iPhone to unlimited 4G LTE, and using my iPhone 4S micro-SIM, I can move between the two phones with ease, complete with HSPA+ data, MMS and Visual Voicemail.

Took me a few days to come to this conclusion and everyone I spoke to at AT&T said I'd have to have the SIM provisioned every time I switched handsets, but that is definitely not the case.

Not sure what happens when LTE arrives in my area, but the reps told me an LTE SIM will also work in the iPhone 4S, so… should be OK!

JRB
[Nokia Lumia 900] ItnStln:
I'm looking at going that route because I don't get LTE where I live. Would I have to change my data plan from my BlackBerry?
[Nokia Lumia 900] ItnStln:
so having the LTE data plan will let me use data on non LTE devices, correct? But is the reverse also true, or not?
[Nokia Lumia 900] JRBTempe:
I can't vouch for BlackBerry, but my iPhone 4S works like a charm with the LTE data plan.
[Nokia Lumia 900] pxzel:
Sim swap back and forth between iPhone and Lumia 900

Went to ATT store and called them and in both instances they said getting VVM on both phones with one sim not doable. Pressed them at the store and they said it may work for the first few times swapping the sum but ultimately it would only work only in one phone only.

Just curious if you're still able to receive VVM on both iPhone and Lumia? If so, anyone have any advice on how to convince ATT to give me the LTE and VVM.
[Nokia Lumia 900] JRBTempe:
They told me the same thing, but it's still working for me after a week -- I've moved the SIM back and forth a number of times without a problem.

FWIW, I always shut the Lumia 900 off before taking out the SIM, since it seems picky about recognizing it any other way. iPhone 4S seems to have no such issue.
[Nokia Lumia 900] pxzel:
Sim swap back and forth between iPhone and Lumia 900

Thanks for the info. The one other issue I noticed swapping back & forth is that the text messaging is saved to each respective phone... unlike visual voice mail. So you're text messages will get split.

I'll check back in a week to see if you're still operational on both phones with VVM. If so, then I'll have them switch me to the LTE & VVM plan. Any chance I can get you're email? Thanks again.
[Nokia Lumia 900] red_z:
For you guys that are moving a SIM between an iPad and iPhone on AT&T...Are you not having any trouble with nasty messages and data plan deactivation from AT&T? I am looking to do exactly what you guys are doing: Use an LTE sim from my iPhone and be able to occassionally move it to my LTE iPad for data use every once in awhile. I don't have my LTE sim card yet, but as a trial last night I took my iPhone 4 3G sim and put it in my iPad. I had to trick the iPad to get the APN settings to come up and switched that to "phone." I was able to use the iPad with 3G data and tried it out for no more than 15 minutes before swapping it back into my iPhone.

Interesting thing happened last night. I woke up to a text message from AT&T that if I want to use data on my iPad I should purchase a plan. Then I come to find out that my iPhone no longer has any data connectivity at all! My phone worked for calls, but I had no data connection. Calls to AT&T confirmed that they had shut off my data plan on my cell phone becuase they saw me using it on my iPad! Wow - they detected and shut it down in no more than 15 minutes of use and just basic websurfing. Crazy.

So if I do this with my new LTE sim card, is the same thing going to happen again?
[Nokia Lumia 900] JRBTempe:
Red_z,

Definitely not the case for me, but I'm using the SIM from my iPhone 4S, which is already LTE compatible as it turns out (I went to AT&T to swap it only to be told it wasn't necessary).

I think the key is moving to a 4G LTE + VVM data plan -- not only have I had zero problems from AT&T, I've even moved the SIM to an HTC Vivid, which I'm reviewing for Techradar now. Maybe the iPhone-specific data plan is mucking things up?

JRB
[Nokia Lumia 900] sycamore714:
Has anyone looked at the data usage in their AT&T account when you out the lumia 900 LTE SIM into the iphone 4gs

Data works for me in the iphone but the usage meter in the account is stuck to the point i stopped use the lumia

I am now worried that they dont charge me for per KB data usage on the iphone vs the LTE plan
[Nokia Lumia 900] go0gle:
has anyone tried using the Euro version of the L900 on AT&T's unlimited "dumb phone" plan ? You won't get LTE, but you get unlimited HSPA+ data for $10 ..
[Nokia Lumia 900] aneftp:
If u move microsim from iPhone into a tablet like the iPad. If AT&T detects that. AT&T will disable data.

What u did was move sims from phone to phone. That's ok. M

Try using your sim in an iPad for a day. Wait till next text messenges from AT&T. They will shut down your data for rest of the month.

Lumia 900 LTE sim in iPhone 4

Just to confirm with anyone still questioning, I've swapped my lumia LTE sim back into my iPhone and have full functionality. For this reason, I may keep my Lumia rather than wait for wp8...I need the best of both worlds.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Spectre51:
Which APN settings should I have in the Lumia? (haven't had AT&T switch me to the 4g LTE plan yet) I currently have it setup using:

apn: wap.cingular

username: wap@cingulargprs.com

password congular1

proxy: wireless.cingular.com

port 80

For those of you that have the LTE plan already working what is in there for your APN?
[Nokia Lumia 900] Spectre51:
Nm got it switched to the lte plan.

[Nokia Lumia 900] ericshmerick:
Found this thread through a google search. I have a Galaxy Nexus on a faux Atrix IMEI (created my own). This has enabled me to get HSDPA+ speeds (otherwise, it was dial-up speeds).

I have a Lumia that I am going to sell because the micro-SIM is a nightmare even with adapters.

I was looking to get a Titan II since it's 4G and uses a regular SIM. Would I be able to get an LTE data plan (I pay for 5gigs w/tethering) and be able to use my SIM in my GNEX (most of the time) at "fake" 4G HSDPA+ speeds?

I worry that the provisioning for the LTE plan will jack up my data speeds on my Galaxy Nexus, which isn't a recognized 4G phone on AT&T, hence why the data plan they give the phone gives horribly slow speeds.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Spectre51:
I'm using my lte plan with my Xperia s with no issues.
[Nokia Lumia 900] ericshmerick:
Thanks. It's amazing how little information is available online about this. I just bought a new Titan II and am selling my Lumia 900 due to the micro-SIM headache.

I hope after I get switched to an LTE plan, I can put my SIM in my Galaxy Nexus and get HSDPA+ speeds. I just don't understand why the data plans are so segregated. Data is data, but if you have the wrong data code on your account, you will get very slow speeds on a GSM Galaxy Nexus (since it's not a recognized "4G" phone on AT&T despite being perfectly capable of 4G). That's why you have to give AT&T an IMEI for one of their official HSDPA+ phones for it to work.

Here's hoping the LTE plan offers HSDPA+ speeds on my Galaxy Nexus.
[Nokia Lumia 900] jhild352:
No the data plans are not interchangeable.

The iphones use a different way of data provisioning. I have an iPhone 4s and an a HTC one x, I've personally tried. When you put a sim provisioned for a onex(or lumia). The data used is completely different on an iPhone than any other phone and that doesn't include the fact that the lumia is lte.

So long story short, no, the data will not work without prorated data charges (because you need differnt data plans) every time you swap your sim between phones.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glgehman:
I inherited a failed dual-boot install, Nook BNRV200-A.

It starts and runs perfectly from SD card. But nothing successfully starts and runs from internal; mostly just boot loops. When I try to get into recovery, I get the dual-boot selector menu. This works OK, but if I select to boot recovery through it, no recovery comes up. If I try the trick with holding down both volume + and volume -, it just boot loops.

I would like to completely blow away all the internal partitions, recreate them and then restore standard boot, some ROM and CWM recovery. Is there a (current) procedure out there to do this? Happy to do this through ADB if somebody could tell me what to type.

The main thing is the dual-boot menu itself. I have tried reformatting /boot from CWM, but the durned thing still comes back.

(Wish we had something like the RUU or NVFlash utilities...)

TIA,

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tinpau60:
Possible solution

Try following this guide ...( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1275859 )(eMMC 2/22 Dual Boot Guide 2.0 ) make sure you download all the needed files too.. It will allow you to wipe and repartition the internal eMMC .... then sets up a dual boot internal for you. Works slick and easily... Takes 20 - 30 min to do and is rock solid.

I used it and I am running CM7.2 (Mirage) on primary and B&N 1.4.1 on Alt boot... works great and is soooo fast (works great using Nook Tweaks to overclock to 1300)

Try it ... I think it will work fine

Tinpau
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glgehman:
Thanks for the quick reply. I did try that (at least the part about Revert from Dual-boot. I don't want a dual-boot setup).

So far, I have a working CM9 setup that successfully reboots and will now boot into recovery. But, for some reason, it doesn't recognize the SD card. I think it still has something to do with the partition table being messed up.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k8108:
I recently went from a dual boot back to single boot. I *think* this is what I did:

Ran revert dual boot zip

Rebooted into recovery. Important to reboot!

Ran repartition zip to 2 GB data/4 GB media (you can go back to stock 1 GB/5 GB if you prefer)

Did the usual wipe everything, clear caches

Installed rom of choice

Reboot

Worked just fine for me.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glgehman:
Problem solved

These steps were very helpful. I had an additional problem where the SDcard I was trying to use was formatted oddly. Instead of a single Primary partition, it was a /logical/ partition on an extended partition. Probably the vendor loaded some crapware on there in the empty space. So it never was seen by the Nook. When I deleted the logical and extended partitions and created a single 8GB primary partition, and formatted it as FAT32, the card was usable. Totally up and running.

Thanks,

try uninstalling unwanted apps on the system like email,maps, etc. But be careful of what you uninstall! This may lead to boot loop. And bricking you're phone. Try reading google docs. You can uninstall it using Titanium Backup.

If you're memory too low, try partitioning you're sd card. :)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] simonrussell77:
I just partitioned my sdcard, and used link2sd.

I'm on a stock rom btw, but fully rooted.

After setting it up, it worked fine. No conflicts on start up and the second partition mounted fine.

Only thing that was weird, is after linking all apps to card, there was a mount error, and in log on /data for link2sd, it said phone or resources busy.

Reboot again, and it's fine. I tried it, and booted several times now with no more problems. It's just the one mount error. Perhaps a slight bug but it's fine now.

I partitioned my card with the cwm zip skin done, in developer section (madteamgalaxyY.zip works too)

So give link2sd a try.

I've close to 100 applications installed, and i've still got almost 159mb space on internal memory.

I also removed all the bloat from the rom too, that I didn't want.

So if you're rooted, or know what you're doing, then I'd advise you on the above.

If your not root savvy, then look it up, google it, and research, so you know what you're doing lolz.

I know a lot now, but I'm still only a rookie, and no developer by any standards. Just a user who's more savvy, and not too scared to mess up.

Good luck, and hope that helps.

If your not rooted, just search the forums here for the update.zip. to root it via stock recovery if you're comfortable with rooting, and only if you know what you're doing ;-)

As if you mess up, it's on your own head lolz. I'm just giving advice, based on what I did, to solve the space issue on our galaxy y.

Good luck anyways ;-)
