So I was wondering if the 4 US versions share the same roms, kernels, etc?
No

There was talk about getting something like that working.. I haven't checked the progress of it lately though
Thank you guys, I think I might get sprint version.

Sprint plans are cheaper than other providers which is why I want to switch to it. If they offer horrible internet speed I'd rather go with att or verizon.

If ATT gives good and cheap plans (unlikely) then I sick with ATT.
Else, probably Sprint, I'm not too fond to get Verizon as they don't have SIM cards...

some phones on sprint and verizon are world phones so they use sim cards too
I hope tmo gets a really really good phone around Christmas time, nexus i wish, then I'll upgrade and renew contract... So I get to keep the same tmo contract for the next year and a half or two even after the acquisition finalises.. I like my 70+ /mnth plan with 5gb data on TMO... When the contract ends, then I'll be on ATT, i don't mind the 2gb data limit since I don't go past 2gb every month anyway, i think it will cost more too especially two years from now or a year.. Att might raise the monthly plans...
I like sim cards..
im not sure yet that is even if the merger happens the fcc might block it and i hope they do i dont want the cheap and great t-mobile to get vaccumed up by the expensive rip off at&t that claims they have the best coverage
Att most likely... I want a iphone

I think tmobile will stay intact after the merge.. Most of the merge is backend, and tmobile is supposed to be a separate entity afterwards.

Sprint! Probably leaving T-mo here in the next month or 2... either get the 3D or the new Motorola Photon when it releases.
T-mo coverage is poop everywhere I go except work and home. I know that is only like 5% of my life that is spent where bad coverage is, but I really like my coverage to follow me other than along interstates.

Idk. A friend of mine who works for tmobile was asked two weeks ago if he was okay with workin for att.
Ill personally go to sprint. They're the only us carrier that has unlimited data. I would switch right now but i dont have the money.

I'm reading a lot of data issues with ST. Are you using an ATT Note i717? Mine is rooted with a JB rom.
Soft cap is ~2GB for data on At&t compatible sim card. Not sure about T-Mobile compatible sim card, but I think I remember reading on HoFo that it was around 5 gigs.
I received a call from them when I hit 2.1, but I haven't hit that mark since.
If Tmo existed in IA, I would switch to the $30 prepaid since I hardly talk, and when I do, I generally use GV

I have my rezound on the leaked Global update rom on Simple Mobile $40 plan. I am in Indianapolis, Indiana and moving soon to
Denver Colorado... I want to have speeds better then Edge. Does Indianapolis, Indiana or Denver Colorado areas have the ability to use something better then Edge speeds for data? Do I need to wait for the ATT spectrum that Tmobile got as part of the break up of the merger? Tired of edge....
I'm from Denver, hope you like it! I don't think we have simple mobile, but it'll work with straight Talk sim Idk about data for that though. All I know is Verizon 4G lte ran at about 45mbits a second

I already have a denver phone number from simple mobile. In indianapolis i only get edge speeds. If i knew someone with a straight talk sim i would test it that way to see if straight talk supports 3g or better.

You well get no better than edge speeds on T-Mobile or att networks due to the resound not supporting the frequency band they operate on. Unless your in am area T-Mobile is refarming 2g spectrum to HSPA+

That is what i thought. I will just have to wait and see when tmobile will refarm. Anyone want to trade?

Don't know how much it would help with tmobile though, as no confirmed successes with tmobile yet.

does anyone have simple mobile in Denver Colorado and have a rezound on it? Are you getting any 3g or better speeds. If so how did you get the better speeds? I read that Denver has been refarmed as someone with an iphone 5 has 3g service. I will be moving to Denver on March 1 so just wanting to see... I am in Indianapolis which so far i only have edge speeds... unless i need to edit something....
The only way it would work is if you could get a plan using att network through simple plan and do the radio edits described in the link above. Otherwise, gl until T-Mobile launches there new platform.

I'm getting an optimus g soon. It's unlocked so if I pop in my sim card and add the fast.t-mobile apn should Lte work? I live in Vegas and is supported by lte. I get lte with my nexus 4 fine
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
There was another thread where someone said he couldn't get lte no matter what he did. He tried different ROM/radio combos. I've been using an unlocked optimus g for the past month now on T-Mobile but we don't have lte in Florida yet , hopefully next month.
I hope it works for you because according to the specs of our phone it should.

When i get HSPA, I can pull 13mb/s download, 3 mb/s upload. But the 1900 mhz, is not in all places where I live. So I get those speeds, or Edge. Sucks. I don't recommend trying to pull up Google Map to look for something on Edge, it's slow.
I'm contemplating switching to Straight Talk and naturally I want to keep my S4 versus getting one of their phones..is this possible to just buy the AT&T GSM sim from them and use it with my Verizon s4? Or am I doomed to a Straight Talk phone.

I belive it will I just got 2 vzw s4s im going to try and get them working on tmobile I did it with a vzw s3 and note 2 I dont see why you couldent. On note 2 and s3 I only got 2g data. Ive read elsewhere that the vzw s4 will get 3g possible 4g. Some1 correct me if im wrong
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
I use straight talk (using there at&t version) and it works perfectly. The only thing I heard was if using at&t it might bump you to 2g phone in the states, but I don't think that's true for S4 like in previous models. But I'm not 100% sure.
