I have a T-Mobile Sim in two phones, and they work fine. I had TMobile help me move my contacts to the phone.

You might have to contact T-Mobile and have them set you up for that phone. T-Mobile seems to always have some issues with their service anyway(depending on your location). I'm sure they will tell you it could take up to 24 hours before your phone starts working. Wish I had an answer for you.

Yes, you can if you are holding a tmobile prepaid number :) Please leave your tmobile # when you check out! I will refill for you instantly! Cyrus

I found on the T-Mobile website support page, that this data plan is for a 24 hr session. If you purchase a day pass say at Monday at 3:00pm, it will be available until Tuesday 2:59pm. Hope this helps. I was curious about the data plans myself.

It is a pre- paid phone so it all depends on what to get you service time for the phone.deal you want

I use this phone with my T Mobile plan that I already had from another phone and from which I transferred my SIM card from too.

People saying yes are partly correct but it depends on the SIM card. T-mobile has 2 sizes of SIM cards, and if you're an existing contract customer trying to stick your SIM card into a non-contract phone, it may not work. I would call them before purchasing anything, although at worst you'd just need to get a new SIM card and transfer the account.

Yes you can do that. I used AT&T; phone before buying this phone and l have no problem with it.

No and yes; you can buy it and pay for minutes/data, but the minutes/data you purchase will be gone in 30 days. This might be good if you use everything in 30 days, but bad if you are expecting it to hold its value until you use everything.

Hmmm this is an interesting thread. I am in the exact situation as the OP. I am getting conflicting information, so help me out with this:Can I just transfer my sim card to the N8 and use all of it's features without signing up for a data plan? Will T-Mobile be able to detect if my phone is a smart phone if all I do is access the internet through wifi? I don't want anything to change with my plan, money is already tight. Would it really be necessary for me to call Tmobile and request that they not allow any data access? Wouldn't that tip them off to the fact that I bought an unlocked phone?

I think not but not too sure. The phone is unlocked and uses SIM cards. You may want to ask your TMobile agent if they can install their gadget/SIM card/whatever in an unlocked phone. Anyway they are the ones with the most helpful info. Good luck!

Don't know cause I have tmobile but I only bought to use when I'm out the country

It will take the sim card and function but you will want to call tmobile to have them do some sort of update to give you all the features of your current phone.

You can as long is it the standard size and not a micro sim, it is already set up for T-Mobile

I already had t-mobile pay as you go. So I just used my sim card from my old phone and put it in this new phone,charged it up and it works fine. I am not sure about using the new sim card that comes with it. You probably would need to contact T-mobile by phone to set it up for a new account and sim card. Or you could go by a T-mobile store and they should set it up for you.

Hi, no, as this is the unlocked phone, you will be able to purchase a sim card from any cell phone provider.
