So if I'm reading your chart correctly, the international version is not capable of working with any kind of 4g. ? I'm hoping this is the case as I bought one and in order for it to work on my companies plan it needs to be a 3g phone only

Yes. Correct.
There is an upgraded version of this phone, with Double the ram and 4G, but that is the I9305.

Perfect thanks. I have a company issued at&t blackberry curve 3g that I removed the Sim out of and use in my captivate. tried to upgrade that to the infuse long while back but found out it would not work because it was 4g .Long story short, my company would not update my plan to 4g to allow the infuse to work as my company doesn't authorize the use of Android devices. Did some research on international versions and figure I would try one more time. Hope it works out I have a 500 dollar paperweight again that I gave to try and sell and will be back to being stuck with my captivate. Not that that's a bad thing.

not like many carriers have passed 21mbps , or people really need more than that. they data plans are capped
This is why they haven't released jellybean yet

Well the S3 phone came in today. Now I am just waiting for the Sim card cutter to come so I can out my captivate Sim in it and find out if I have data

I don't know if this question has been asked before, but is it possible to unlock the Thunderbolt to work on the AT&T network? I recently got a Thunderbolt from my friend who is on the verizon network, but I'm on the AT&T network, I would like to use this phone on AT&T, I love this phone too much.
No you can't because Verizon uses CDMA, AT&T uses GSM.

and just to clarify...the sims are completely different sizes/shapes to one another
Sell it and get yourself an Inspire, the closest you will get to a Thunderbolt on AT&T right now

Actually the sim's are the same size, I put the AT&T sim into it and its the same size.
I just wasn't sure if it was possible, there are a lot of Unlocking sites that claim to be able to unlock it using the IMEI number. So Im guessing its fake and that there is no way to unlock it.

I guess if there is no other way, might as well just try to sell it and get the inspire.

It can be unlocked to use on another CDMA x LTE provider, such as Metro PCS.
I was thinking they made the switch over to the micro ones... sorry i stand corrected on size
yeah, you can stick the sim in there all you want but it isn't going to convert an LTE or CDMA radio into a GSM radio with AT&T bands.
Hey guy/gals I have had my Aria now for near half a year.
I got it with AT&Ts Hostile take over of the Alltel cellular in my area.
Well needless to say AT&T really blew my skirt up so I went and got a DROID Inc2 from Verizon!
Anyway...
...back to what I was saying. I have this nearly untouched Aria that I have S-off and no service. I have set it up with CM7 and CWM v2.5.0.7 so it can charge while off.
I have been using it to stream video of my fish tank on USTREAM to my 5yo Niece, and occasionally as a backup MP3 player but the lock screen says "No SIM Card" "Please insert SIM card" I have taken the SIM card out so I am not inadvertently using AT&T service so they can bill me more for service that does not work in my area.
I would like to know if there is a way to hide this?
I have already tried to addro.carrier=wifi-only to the build.prop but it didn't work.
Any Ideas?
Anyone else doing this?
Why is the sky blue?
Where do babies come from?
WHY?
...Yeah thanks guys! I know there is an answer lurking out there somewhere...

And someone correct me if I'm wrong here, but with a deactivated sim in there you can also use the device to call 911 in an emergency, for whatever that's worth...

You don't even need a SIM card to call 911.

Yes even with the sim card out you can make emergency calls.
currently I'm using T-Mobile which runs at edge speed. I got a ATT sim card but can't get the internet on the phone and i signed up for the 50 dollar plan which is unlimited everything. could some one link instructions on to get the internet on the phone. also is there a chance this phone will get 4g on it? right now i have att, tmobile, and simple plan sim cards. i saw something about straight talk being on att in the forum. what's the easiest solution?

Simple answer, you can't.
Long discussion as to why you can't is here.

Yes you can but it wont be 4g nor LTE, just a 3g .I've been using gophone for the past 8 months with the I9100, the Note, the nexus, the one x and now the S3. OP, in addition to the 50$ a month's you have to add a data package.
http://m.androidcentral.com/att-introduces-new-data-plans-gophone-customers
I'm using the 25$ for 1gig of data. Once you purchased that you have to enter the following apn under mobile network settings:

Then your data will work. It has to be the I9300 not the carriers S3 version. Any other unlocked, unbranded smartphone would also be fine.

I have been looking for a gear s for a little while. And since in have the extra cash I'd like to get one. But I'm a little confused. I have seen the international unlocked ones. And I have seen the T-Mobile unlocked ones also. I am looking to add it to my Verizon service so I'd be getting a Sim card from Verizon to put in it. But which one would work? If someone can fill me in I'd greatly appreciate it.

In your case you need to bite the bullet and get the verizon gs if you are going to put it on your verizon plan. The gs have different cell bands.....international/gsm (att/tmobile)/cdma (verizon/sprint). You cannot put a international/gsm gs on a cdma network. Cdma networks are very limited not like gsm where you can unlock...etc..to switch to another gsm carrier with the same cell band.
Thanks dude. Sucks but I guess I'm gonna do it.

But I can goto sprint and buy one if it is cheaper.

Talk to Verizon first if you are going that route and asked just to make sure.. Verizon might not allow cross over from Sprint.
Buy a t mobile one for cheaper and pay the 15 month to T-mobile that's what I did I also have verizon just way cheaper and you also can have root this way

Hi all,
I have an S9+ unlocked and I am trying to get WiFi calling to work. I've tried a few different roms but no dice. I called ATT and they did what they could on their end but they couldn't get it working and escalated the ticket. I told them I was using an ATT branded phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is it an att phone that was unlocked or is it a factory unlocked phone???
If its factory unlocked you are out of luck.

As Thor said, if you bought it from anywhere other than ATT, your out of luck. They only allow phones purchased through them to use Volte and Wifi Calling.
The one workaround is to activate the features on your line by using a different phone, and then swapping the sim to your S9/S9+. It's a trick that has worked for some but no telling if it still works.
Thanks fellas!
I still have my old ATT S7 Edge that WiFi calling worked on, so today or tomorrow I'm going to flash the S9+ to this, then put the sim card in the S7 Edge, use WiFi calling, then put it in the S9+ and see if that works. I appreciate the tips!

It wont work beyond a week. Att queries the phone ever so often and when it does it will stop working. This is what I've read and been told. It used to work when it first came out for longer for some reason and now is down to a day to a week.
