Who is eyeing an Alcatel Idol 4S

My girl has the Android version. Assuming the Windows 10 version is just a carbon copy, it's going to be a very nice phone.

It's not just a carbon copy, though. It has higher specs than the Android version.
 
Welp. That was a fun thought for a couple days that I might actually be able to get this phone and have it work on AT&T.

As Dan recently reported it will not be unlocked and will not work on AT&T, his was a pre-production unit that wasn't locked down...oh well. Sticking with the 950 XL for a while now it seems like (and 650 for sure...love that little phone, just wish it was faster)!

Then you have no choice but to ask Dan to sell you his phone lol :wink:

But how difficult is it to get the phone unlocked if u buy it outright.
 
You have a better chance of getting pregnant by the Tooth Fairy than that crowd zipping their pie-holes.

Oh my that means Daddy is going to get some Sugar :) .......sometime..........maybe.....but better chance "Just want to be friends"..........

You can try. But the normal business model is to sell the phone for less or no profit and make it back on the phone service.

This is what I want to do...

I'm not from the US but will be visiting next week. I'm hoping I can walk in the T-Mobile store, pay the full price , request an unlock, walk out.

well ill be damned its worth a try right? Nothing to lose. Well i will be doing that tomorrow just because you mentioned it, assuming they have them in stores which probably wont be the case.

I just called a local T-Mobile and they said that they have them in stock but there is no way to even sell me the phone without having a tmobile account or switch to tmobile. So basically they wont unlock it for me or even sell it to me, I would have to switch to tmobile to get the phone which I figured anyways...oh well.
