Any information is greatly helpful

does that mean you can get a sim from att and use it or what does that mean?

Correct. You can use att or any gsm network. You probably won't get LTE though and you would have to change the apn to get data

I know I'm on a network but i don't know what gsm means or what type of network it entails and i don't know what apn stands for or what it is. I know the basic functions of how to use a phone and modify setting but anything advanced i have no clue about.

You can use the Verizon Note 3 on a variety of networks including att and tmobile or various international networks. Popping in a sim card should work for voice and text. For data, the non-verizon carrier would have to give you the settings required for it to work on their network.

ok so if i were to acquire a sim card from att for example would it shut off my service through Verizon and i would use att for my service giving that i get the settings from att? or how does that work?

 

[dpham00]

Using an att sim would allow it to operate solely on att network.

It would not disconnect the Verizon service however, you would have to contact Verizon to do that, or service would be automatically disconnected if you port the number to att.
Keep in mind that you probably won't get 4glte on att.

ok thank you for letting me know. i wasnt considering switching i was just curious how that worked.

does anyone have an answer to my first question? I still haven't figured out what the app named "client" is for.

I am going to South Korea. Does this mean I can use my note 3 there and not have to use verizons overpriced roaming? If yes I guess all I'll need to do is go to a phone servicer and get a sim card for South Korea. Thanks for any input.

Correct, you would just need a local SIM. You would also have to change the apn for data
