Will ATT automatically add data plan to unlocked smartphone
I have a unlocked smartphone I bought from Ebay and I was wondering if ATT will automatically add a data plan for this phone. Is there anyway to use this phone on the ATT network without a data plan. If ATT forces me to add a data plan then I might as well get a new phone under contract as I am eligible for upgrade.

If you have a smartphone, you have to have a data plan and they will add one for you. The problem with that is it may not meet your needs.

If it's an AT&T branded phone they'll detect it and add a data plan pretty quickly. If it's not an AT&T branded phone and you turn the data access off in the phone it may take them a while to detect it, but you'd be breaking some T&C of AT&T service.
