No data coming through on unlocked Verizon Note 3

Hello:

I am trying to get an unlocked Verizon - Samsung Note 3 working on my work AT&T account/phone number.  I put the SIM from my ATT Samsung 4S in the Verizon Note 3.

(my SIM IS a compatible type per another page on ATT)

 

  • I dont have the 4G or 4G LTE symbol just the "H"
  • Bar signal is not great - but i can make calls
  • However i do not get any data/internet

I have searched the posts and found two that were close:

 

ATT settings for non-ATT unlocked phones - followed these settings for the APN - did not allow data

Verizon Note Edge to ATT - created and tried a new APN from this post, that one does not work either.

 

Verizon Galaxy S6 - this also referenced the same settings in my first link above, but it seems there wasn't a resolution fully on picture files transfering..maybe this is somehow linked to my data/nternet issue? @GLIMMERMAN76

 

Is there any hope of getting the Verizon Note 3 up and running on ATT?

Thanks so much in advance.

Steve

all your going to get is H no 4g LTE.  H stands for hspa which is what att uses for 3.5g service that they call 4g.

 

That phone is so crippled by verizon you may never get it to work like it should.  You will not get any MMS messages with it I can tell you that.  The Note 4 and newer I can get to work any samsung older than the s5 I cant get them to work with GSM carrier fully.

 

There are plenty of other low cost phones out there that will work with ATT.

Thank you for the quick response.

Will not waste anymore time, and look for something else!
