Can someone who buys an AT&T Lumia 920 Test a T-Mobile (US) microsim?

[Agent-P]

Could someone who buys a Lumia 920 today from AT&T post a picture of the bands listed on the box? And if it's possible, could you also throw in a T-Mobile (US) microsim and test data speeds? (if it is unlocked out of the box)

UPDATE: We've had a couple of forum members try putting a T-Mobile sim in their AT&T 920s, but it did not work. However it was pointed out that the AT&T 920 shares the same FCC ID with the Rogers/Dev devices. So now the next step is to get an AT&T 920 unlocked (either via AT&T or a third party) to see if a T-Mobile sim works after that.

HUGE BUMP. This is something I'm also interested in myself.

I am EXTREMELY interested in knowing this as well if not then I might be resign to settle for a subpar 8x... I hope I don't have to resort to the 8x, please don't make me get the 8x...

Okay, so I may have found the answer. Bad news.

Best bet is to hope and see if Amazon will have unlocked ones straight from Nokia for a reasonable price. Or, just go with another phone.

I don't see any info about the AT&T 920 in that link.

From my box.

It's a little blurry, taken with my iPhone 4.

Do you see access point in the settings? It's toward the bottom.

"If you?re still having doubts about picking up an unlocked international Lumia 920 to run on T-Mobile, hopefully this new set of images will push aside your concerns. We?ve come to the understanding that the AT&T edition of the Lumia 920 won?t have AWS bands thanks to a device breakdown courtesy of the FCC."

That 920.2 is a red flag!! The Rogers devices say 920.3 on the box!(Rogers devices are confirmed to be unlocked and capable of tmobile frequencies) Its not looking too good for the at&t variant to be able to support tmobile... here's to hoping that it does

You're going to have to tell me exactly what to look for, I'm a WP noob.

That's just speculation. That article was written days ago so I'm not giving up hope.

Man, I don't even know anymore. A lot of people objecting to T-Mo News' findings in the comments.

I'm just gonna sit and wait.

I do not see it listed in the list of settings.

I'm looking to see if custom APNs can be added to the AT&T 920. That way people will be able to use it on MVNOs like Straight Talk and Net10, and possibly T-Mobile.

Isn't there a "debug" menu on these devices or something?

None of what's being asked is on the box, etc.

 

[theeboredone]

Check the manual to see what bands are listed? Might be a universal manual though...

There is this:

Awesome, looks like the APNs can be added through the cellular settings. On my dev 920, it's under a separate menu.

So...

Anyone able to get it unlocked?

I went into an AT&T store to try and see if I could open the sim slot and just put my T-Mobile sim in there to see if it worked. Unfortunately they had the sim trays blocked on both display models. So it looks like we'll have to wait for confirmation from someone who actually owns one of these.
