Works fine, like any other cell phone. Just set up the APN. Leave out any "PROXY" fields, except for the MMS Proxy.

--------------

Also, it's actually pretty simple how AT&T detects that you have a smartphone. They just sniff the packets. Your browser's UserAgent, for example, is a dead giveaway. It tells websites (and anyone in the middle) what browser you're using. They can also just check how much data you're using and what apps are transferring traffic. It was fun while it lasted. Unless you use a proxy to modify outgoing packets to hide the fact that you're using an Android phone, you're not getting past AT&T's detection. Just switch to Straight Talk.

Thank you so much Fred!!! I'm getting my phone tomorrow and will drop by Walmart today to get ST (ATT Compatible) Sim Pack. I used to be with TMobile and i spent 120 per month for unlimited everything which i do not max out. Only texting. When I'm home, I use my Wifi.
[Galaxy S III General] gadget069:
Can you use the s3 with T-Mobile? I was thinking of switching to them from straight talk. I'm not even breaking straight talks TOS and I get throttled, my only concern is coverage in my area from T-Mobile.
[Galaxy S III General] Product F(RED):
Only if you're in an area where they've moved to 1900 Mhz. You can check at http://airportal.de

The way some of you guys are getting past it, I have hope that maybe there are different versions of the international editions, just like they had the white and black i9100's. I'm on a black i9100 with no issues, but I've seen the people with the white ones getting bumped to the data plan. Something with the imei algorithms.

But without more people to try we won't be able to find out until we see more people post about it.
[Galaxy S III General] ceo.mtcl:
Yes, I agree. I think at least three white ones i know of are safe. One of my friends has blue one on t mobile. I don't know if I can borrow his phone to do some testing, but it will be interesting to find out.

[Galaxy S III General] brekec88:
Couldnt you just give then an imei from a dumb phone and then throw the Sim in the s3 or can they detect that?
[Galaxy S III General] kirdroid:
May be he stuck his sim back on to an iphone or att smartphone. The moment you do that ATT will know and switch you to a smartphone from dumb phone plan.

Some people don't know how this works and think once they are on unlimited dumb phone plan they can put sim on any phone :)
[Galaxy S III General] kirdroid:
Yes you can do that and it will work.
[Galaxy S III General] Acapella75:
I believe you're misunderstanding. You can't get an AT&T branded phone. It has to be an international unlocked gsm version for this to work and they cost more than $350
[Galaxy S III General] brekec88:
No I know im just going to get a branded s3 and hox, then downgrade one of the plans to no data so I only pay an extra $10 a month. 150 for the hox and 200 for the s3. International s3 would be cool but I dont wanna pay 400 plus more and I dont use over 3GB data with wifi and what not ne ways.
[Galaxy S III General] ceo.mtcl:
I see.

When you want to change your plan from data to no data then this is the procedure you should follow.

1. Get a dumb phone.

2. call Att and tell them you want to use a new phone on this line and give them the IMEI number of the dumb phone.

3. Once that has been updated in the system thank the operator and hang up.

4. Call Att again.

5. Tell operator that you have a dumb phone but it's having a smart phone data plan, please remove it.

6. Operator will remove it, thank her and hang up.

:p

Im talking about two year contract plans. I've never used pre pay phones.

Sent from Rooted debloated stock Galaxy S3 OG I9300
[Galaxy S III General] ekiels:
Their pre paid plans seem to be set up like their contract plans- where there is data and 'smartphone data' for an additional cost. Guess I could give it a try for 50bucks? Is the main thing that the phone is an international smart phone so that the carrier cannot recognize it as a smartphone so charge you for non smart data?

Thanks for all your help!!!

Also, by any chance do you know the difference between the following G S3 models?

Item model number: GT-I9300RWDBTU

and

Item model number: GT-I9300RWDDBT

They are both white, 16gb, unlocked, international, so not sure the difference?
[Galaxy S III General] circuit.007:
So you guys recommended me to just go with straight talk. I looked and agreed that's better than starting with atnt but now I have a couple more questions.

T-Mobile is getting a sg3 should I just wait and get that one and stay on my current T-Mobile plan?

I tried looking this up but I couldn't get a very in depth answer. What are the differences between us and international. I know us has dual core snap and 2gb ram while international has 1gb ram and quad core. Which one should I get regardless of which carrier I go to straight talk or tmobile? I know I don't need lte but which is more important 2gb ram or quad core. Also international I will have to import and if anything happens warranty wise I will be screwed. Tough decisions to make need opinions. What would you guys pick if you were in my spot?
[Galaxy S III General] ceo.mtcl:
I'll pick international any day of week. Get it from expansys usa or negri electronics. That's the whole thread is about.

I have the same issues. Id love to get the international version but its much more expensive. And id rather have a legit warranty and the peace of mind

International one is not expensive in long run. And you always have a peace of mind with Samsung devices. But I can understand your OCD for us version :p

Question regarding AT&T return policy -

So I bought and returned the HOX due to non-exsistent multi-tasking, if I get the S3 am I stuck with it if things go south ?

Thx -
[Galaxy S III General] ceo.mtcl:
When you say you are buying s3 do you mean international or us version?

Sent from Rooted debloated stock Galaxy S3 OG I9300
[Galaxy S III General] kirdroid:
The return policy is same for all phones you buy on ATT. So if something is wrong exchange it or return within return period.

Generally i feel this whole warranty thing is over blown. I haven't had issues with any international unlocked phones i buy except for one which had a dead pixel. I could exchange it from the seller without issues.

May be in the long run it matters i don't know, but i keep my phones for very short duration so no big deal for me :)
[Galaxy S III General] ceo.mtcl:
I agree with you. I've never had issues as well.

Also I recommend never buying from Att directly as they have a crappy return policy where they charge a restocking fee. If you want to buy an Att phone then buy it from best buy as they have no restocking fee in case you have to return it.

Sent from Rooted debloated stock Galaxy S3 OG I9300
[Galaxy S III General] SlimJ87D:
I believe the receipt says it is a onetime exchange with restocking fee. Call them and ask them what do they mean by that.

That is why I recommend best buy. You can do unlimited returns there.

Will international one work on T-Mobile?
[Galaxy S III General] djkinetic:
Yes it will, while I usually do go the international way and buy international phones, think I'm gonna break down and order the ATT version for the subsidized price...reasons well LTE is up in my area and I skipped the last couple LTE phones... Also having an international GNex makes the need for an international S3 for me a bit less necessary...so in my situation I think going the carrier LTE route makes a bit more sense to me...that said if I didnt have my Gnex I think I would have ordered the international S3 for sure though.

Sent from Rooted debloated stock Galaxy S3 OG I9300
[Galaxy S III General] djkinetic:
I could resell my GNex and essentially get the OG S3, for the most part the same as the subsidized price but eh what would have been the point of me getting the Gnex, whole reason i got it was cause I wanted to have the latest and greatest google updates right away heh...my mindset right now is that my international phone purchases will be towards the nexus lines of phones..but not everyone wants/needs a nexus...if i was in that group i would have no issues getting an international s3 or any other international phone for that matter.
[Galaxy S III General] circuit.007:
So the international version will only work on edge/2g? If that's correct then I do not want that because I want 4g hspa+. I was under the impression that T-Mobile 4g worked on the international version?

So what about if I go straight talk on international version will it still only be 2g speeds?

Sorry for so many questions.
[Galaxy S III General] kchino:
Yes you are correct you'll only get 2G/edge on T-Mobile with the SGS3 international version. T-Mobile has begun to refarm some markets with the 850 band which would allow you to get HSPA on a AT&T or international phone but it won't be widespread till at least early 2013.

Straight Talk uses AT&T's backbone so you'd get HSPA/3.5G.
[Galaxy S III General] djkinetic:
Correct me if I'm wrong, if I recall Tmo 3g runs on 2 different bands 1700 & 2100, the internation version supports WCDMA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100...so technically a Tmo user could get 3g with the International S3 if a TMo user is in an area blanketed with 2100 3g coverage...but if you're not lucky enough to be in the 2100 frequency band of 3g then ur SOL...and you will be on Edge...Unfortunately I believe most of TMo's 3g network is 1700 atm.
[Galaxy S III General] kchino:
To receive T-Mobile 3G your phone needs to be able to upload on 1700 and download on 2100. 3G won't work on a unlocked international or AT&T phone unless you are in a area which has been refarmed by T-Mobile. I miss spoke before the refarm is on 1900, and I believe it's only active in the bay area at the moment.

Apparently Apple was testing at WWDC today.

http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2405580,00.asp
[Galaxy S III General] djkinetic:
Ah ok wasnt aware that Tmo was using 3g to upload on 1700 and download on 2100.
[Galaxy S III General] circuit.007:
So is straight talk on atnt hspa speed as good as tmobiles hspa +? If so I would have to make sure I get the atnt sim from straight talk because they sell both T-Mobile and atnt Sims..

So I guess my decision on international vs us version depends on speed. Because if atnt 3.5g hspa speed is good as tmobiles 4g I would get the international but if its not it would be better to get tmobiles gs3 which will be released very soon with 2gb ram.
[Galaxy S III General] djkinetic:
i believe that tmobiles hspa+ is faster then att
[Galaxy S III General] SlimJ87D:
This really depends where you live. At least if you do Straight talk it's month to month.
[Galaxy S III General] farfromovin:
The Tmo SGSIII will have 15-25mbps download speeds in good signal areas. So yeah, their HSPA+42 is apples and oranges compared to ATT's HSPA. But, it lags way behind ATT's LTE in their newer (less saturated) markets. I've seen 45-50mbps download speeds on that. But, and this my main complaint with ATT, it depends on network congestion. ATT has soo many customers that their network is bogged down lots of times. Again, that's only my experience in the larger West Coast cities. I bet if you took SGSIII's from ATT and Tmobile and did speed tests in the 20 largest cities in the US, real world results would come out a wash. I don't think Tmo would be far behind, and they might even come out on top. Alright, enough of my Tmo fanboism :o

That being said- If I were in the cell plan market for just myself I would get the international version on a prepaid ATT plan. You'll have fast enough mobile data for dirt cheap while having the better device due to ridiculous dev support!

Highly doubt it (T-mobile Galaxy S II, wasn't compatible with i777, and i9100 roms); though there's hope that the Canadian, American, and Chinese developers could have a unified developing pool, after all the specs are ALL the same (S4, 2GB Ram) and since they all have the exact same radio, just with some bands disabled by the carrier, there's hope for a huge development community!
