Straight Talk SIM in an Unlocked Phone Worked

[eddiesan]

I tried a Tracfone sim card with a Nokia 1661 unlocked from T Mobile and it worked. Maybe is something in the low end Nokias that make them work with the Tracfone/Straight Talk sims.

it seems like the SIM from a e71 works in nokia phones and a few motorolas. i think i might go buy a e71 and throw the SIM in my captivate.

unlimited data on at&t, here i come

SBdunks have you tried the sim in any Blackberries?

[justlosther]

I have an unlocked HTC HD2 working on ST. The account (sim) was activated inside a norkia E71. The HTC HD2 is from my previous T-Mobil account. Texting works just fine even sending pics via txt. I can't get the internet to work sadly. Does anybody know the Settings for ST internet? Wifi is the only way my weather app or internet will work.

That looks like the CDMA data settings. I'm kinda interested in whether or not the SIM for the E71 really isn't locked to the phone. I'd switch back to my iPhone 3GS if I could use it on AT&T's network with 3G for $45 a month. If it's just a question of data settings, there's gotta be a way to obtain them from the E71.

Try att.mvno as the APN... leave everything else blank/default

Picked up an E71 at the local Walmart and plugged it into Nokia Configuration Tool. Looks like it's using a proxy. Here's the APN settings:

[mofotrucker]

[MrRomeo]

So you openly admit to being an idiot and committing theft? People cant honestly be this stupid!

[mofotrucker]

now now MrRomeo.... never admitted to anything... just experimenting... in the name of cheaper fone service... and why would u call me an idiot....but to each his own... the next day went and bought another nokia e71 and got it working so now im a happy straight talk customer... lol...

[MrRomeo]

You said that you kept the sim and returned the phone, thats theft!

[Scotsman828]

MrRomeo is right here, keeping the SIM and returning the phone is not only theft, but stupid!

[mofotrucker]

true that... went to walmart today.... and talk to some employee and returned the sim... yes i lied and told him that i must have forgotten the sim and he said that he will take car of it... so there im trying to redeem myself...lol sorry guys wont happen again... i didnt think of the sim being theft since i had paid for the service...but it is and i dont like stealing.... hope its all good with the fone gods... well at least i feel better... and i have a pretty cool e71 that it aint to shabby and a hd7 that works with straight talk...sweet...lates
