  • Whats up guys. I had to recently change my Normal At&t Micro sim card that fit in my Moto E 2nd generation to a Nano sim to fit in my new Moto X 360 pure edition. This is also needed to go from Iphone 4 to Iphone 5 or Iphone 6... huuuhh.. Why so many different sim cards. The videos online are too long. If you want more detail please check out unbox therapy's video here • How to cut your SIM ca... . Also Ed from TechSource shows a neato gang way as well • How to Convert your SI... . either way i couldn't make it through their videos.. nor did i print a template. Didn't care. Honeybadger.

    I dont think I could have handled some 5 minute diatribe to show such a simple thing.

    However, the card remains at its G technology as it was released. Should you use it in a newer phone, able to connect in a superior G, that phone will not connect upper then the card's G. Ex: card 3G, phone capable 4G results phone will connect only to 3G

    hi, idk if you still man this but in case you do, what would I win/lose by having at&t install a nano for my new after market note 8? currently have a dying note 4 with a micro sim through at&t. at&t said they can roll it out and have it all programmed for $5 even during this coronavirus lockdown. serious answers only please. the phone is arriving in two days via post office.

    • @TRYtoHELPyou
      @TRYtoHELPyou  4 ปีที่แล้ว
