Will this work with a prepaid t mobile plan with unlimited data?

It will work with a T-Mobile pre-paid mobile broadband "data" plan. I regular cell-phone plan will not work, it has to be a data plan. As far as unlimited data, they only offer unlimited 3G speeds. You pay for a certain amount of High Speed 4G data, and when those GBs run out, it switches to the unlimited 3G data (which is just about useless).

I have the T-Mobile prepaid plan with a super-cheapie phone (Moto v195s) and I'm looking at upgrading to this phone. Were you able to get the data plan separately to work with this phone and the prepaid plan? I don't use voice heavily, but I do text message and I might like having data. What was the cost (if you don't mind the question) and are you seeing any drawbacks to this arrangement? Thanks!

I have T-Mobile and it works great. Be sure to use the CDMA/Gsm slot in the phone.

While I have not tried this particular model with T-Mobile, I have tried the older version and it did. I am sure this one will work with T-Mobile. However, if you put in an ATT sim, then there would be a problem as only one would work. This is a fantastic phone and I am very pleased with it. I use mainly overseas when traveling. You can download apps that takes advantage of wifi and end up making free calls and receiving and sending emails, etc.

If it is the prepaid, you will have to make a call to tmobile to make it work

I do not know if it can be used as a pre-paid phone, but I have the $45 a month unlimited plan, and I did use the SIM card from an older phone, and it works. It can NOT be used with T-Mobile, or Consumer Cellular SIM cards due to the number that they use to activate the phone has a different type of activation set up number.

This phone works with any prepaid plan as long as it has a sim card.i hope this answers your question.

I do know that it works awesome with Att prepaid and would assume it is the same for T Mobile. Love this phone too.

The prepaid cards are for your account, as in paying your bill. If your unlocked galaxy is compatible with t-mobiles network then there should be no problem.

Personally I am not using it with T-Mobile as it wasn't very difficult to unlock it myself (there are instructions out there online) but I can't imagine there being a significant difference between a prepaid and post-paid Sim. You might however need to look into whether your Sim is provisioned for 4g services

The unlocked phone works fine with T-Mobile prepaid. Any simm card should work in an unlocked GSM phone.

It probably will work with T mobile. I don't know for sure.I use Straight Talk.

Not in my case. I had a prepaid T-Mobile phone already. I just transferred the SIM card to the new phone.

Yes, it will work just fine with the T-mobile plan. In fact, I got it for my mom to use it on T-mobile as well. It takes standard sim card. Battery life has been good so far. Simple phone to use.

Yes it does, but with AT&T; the unlimited data for prepaid isn't covered on Symbian devices and TracFone (TracFone, NET10, Straight Talk, SafeLink Wireless, Telcel América and SIMPLE Mobile all the same) uses Verizon, AT&T;, Sprint, and T-Mobile. So, depending on your coverage area if AT&T; has the strongest strength/ signal that's the tower your phone will work on. If so you wont have data unless you pay separately even if the plan says unlimited data.
