galaxy note with at&t

[qkrzazzang]

hi. i am thinking of buying galaxy note from either korea or uk. but im worried because they all seem to have different compatibility. im planning to use the "unlocked" note with at&t postpaid plan without 2 year contract which is possible. is there a specific place where i should order this or can i just buy one from korea and get it unlocked from somewhere and be able to use it with at&t postpaid plan? thanks in advance

Amazon.com has them now unlocked.

You are using on ATT with a go plan correct? How did you do that? Just go and get the phone at best buy and then pop the SIM card in? So you have voice and hspa data on ATT? Unlimited voice and data for 50?

Yup go phone. I bought my sim at the AT&T store, popped it in and put the APN settings.

They APN can be found on the 3rd page of the "Where to buy Galaxy Note for US" thread.

It is showing HSPA but so far my speeds have been terrible. I wonder if they are throttled. I need to do more speed tests.

Here are some speed tests. They aren't that good. I wonder if its because I'm using a prepaid account.

Who covers the warranty for the note since it isn't from the US? Would Samsung UK honor the 1 yr or whatever factory warranty is?

Where is your location? I'm also getting similar speed here in Davenport, Iowa

More like EDGE speeds. How much is adding a line to your account? I thought it is like 10 a month? With that and data is that not comparable to a $50 a month go plan? I guess it is a 2 year contract.

Anyone using their Note on this type of plan and are the speeds better?

I'm seeing you guys are having slow data speeds. Will I have the same since I'm already on a contract with a data plan?

I popped an AT&T SIM card from a non-smartphone I had on my family plan. The data works, 3G and Hsdpa+ but the speeds suck! Does anyone know how to modify the settings, or the account plan for the phone to get faster speeds? The WiFi rocks and for the most part is what I use, but when out and about, would be nice to have a faster network speed option.

 

[KoukiFC3S]

can you please give me the phone number? the site won't let me PM you yet. thanks!

Dude I'm just down 1-80 in Iowa City, IA thinking of importing a Galaxy Note to use on AT&T. I've read up on this site but haven't found a step-by-step guide to making it work.

I have an iphone 4 on contract with AT&T, I'm wondering how I get a SIM card and then how I make it work on 3G after I would put it into a Note I imported.

Cheers,
RG

Okay, I looked online and ordered a $3 SIM card from amazon. Still hoping to get confirmation that it will work over 3g if I do import a Note. Wondered if y'all could help?
