I purchased an unlocked Nokia 5800 Navigation Edition phone from Amazon. This phone is compatible with the ATT network. I am not a heavy cell phone user, so I don't need a regular phone service plan. I have been using a prepaid ATT Gophone (Nokia 2320) as my main cell phone. When I insert the SIM card from the Nokia 2320 into the 5800, I am unable to connect with the ATT network. The SIM works fine for 3G connection in the 2320. Does ATT block the Nokia 5800 from using the prepaid Gophone service, or has someone been successful in using the 5800 as a Gophone? When I try to place a call with the 5800 using the Gophone SIM, I receive a message that it for emergency service only. I purchased an unlocked Nokia 5800 Navigation Edition phone from Amazon.

Anybody having trouble using 3G data with AT&T;? My 5800 is showing excellent 3.5G signal but when I try using data it just gives me an error message. It works fine if I keep the phone in GSM-mode though...EDIT: An extremely stupid design choice in AT&T;'s SIM card structure. Even though I had a 3G capable sim card, it wasn't 3G-enabled so couldn't use the data (but oddly enough could use the bandwidth to talk to people. If anyone else has this problem, just go talk to someone at AT&T.;

I have the same question. Usually the combination is 850/1900 for american versión or 900/2100 for the rest. I think Amazon got it half right or just invented their own verson. I would guess that it is the american version because it says the maps are for USA and CA and various others say it is workin in AT&T; 3G network. I think I will take my chances.

I want this phone but here in Costa Rica we have only one company and the 3G is (like AT&T;) on the 850 MHz band I need to know if this specs are rigth cause it only says HSDPA 900/1900 MHz

Hola Juan, a mi me acaban de llegar dos NOKIA 5800 NAVIGATION EDITION, cuando los compre, no me fije en el detalle de las bandas, y luego lo vi, estaba bien triste porque pense que ivan a ser de la banda 900, para mi sorpresa, estos fueron con la banda 850 para 3g, de hecho, ya los tenemos trabajando, ahora voy a comprar otro, espero que me lo manden con la banda 850, en todo caso, les voy a poner una nota para asegurarme que asi sea. saludos

I do not know why it does not work with them. I got AT&T; and my SIM works. Are you sure your sim card is activated?

I think it should work with AT&T; you could find out, as for the sim card it needs a standard sized one. You probably would need to buy a micro memory card though because it doesn't have much space.

It should work with AT&T.; I've used mine with T-Mobile. Verizon phones don't have SIM cards, and, I don't believe are GSM.

How does an unlocked phone work. I have ATT and have no contract. Will this phone work?

the 3G network of AT&T; is WCDMA, and this phone support WCDMA, so it will still work with your SIM card

I just spent 6 hours talking to AT&T...; This phone does NOT work with AT&T.; Do not buy an unlocked version, unless all you're wanting to do is use it as a phone. The mobile data will NOT work on AT&T; from an unlocked phone like this.

I don't know Jennifer, I am from Venezuela. I just know this cellphone works with GSM band 850/900/1800/1900/ and 3G band model C2104: 850/1700/1900/2100. Model C2105: 900/2109... You have to search which band works with at&t.;

No this model wont work with at&t.; Look for the GSM or at&t; version it's usually blue.

Yes, it work with At&T;, T-Mobile, Straight Talk, and I am using it now on Metropc. I believe it's a good phone. I have had no problem with the phone.

Hi Tori,I used a T-mobile SIM card with the phone and it worked fine. I have a month to month plan on T-mobile. I think it will work on AT&T;, if you have a sim card because the phone is unlocked. Hope this helps :)

No it does not. Straight talk phones or Trac phones are not compatible with At&t

Ideally, the phone works best with AT&T.; The phone I ordered was locked, it wouldn't accept any SIM that I put in it. You should checkout the BLU Life View; that's what I got. It's sold through an American company, too.

You can put an active SIM card in any unlocked phone and it should work. I don't have AT&T; so I don't know if the features specific to AT&T; will work without any problem.

No! Ours didn't work well with AT&T;! I was supposed to be unlocked but didn't respond to several AT&T; features!

It should work with at@t all u have to do is get a sim card at the at@t store unless urs fits the sim card slot :-)

Yes, it should work with any GSM SIM card - the phone itself is unlocked. I had no problems getting it working on the AT&T; network here in California. Be aware that it takes a Micro SIM, not a regular size SIM.
