Despite the US Carrier's "4G" (fauxG) marketing blitz, HSPA is actually 3G. The LTE build out is a proper 4th generation network.
I know that. I was saying that I'm happy with the speeds that I currently have with the gophone service.

Question: which go phone plan do you sign up for? Can you get away with doing $50 unlimited or do you have to purchase the additional smart go phone data plan as well?
You have to purchase the data plan cause the 50$ unlimited only works with non smart phones. Unless there's some kinda of a trick or something g but I doubt it.

You can get the unlimited talk and text for $50 dollars but the data plan is excluded. IMO as long as you can live without data its an okay plan and you can add data if you want but it's not required. What you need for this is a fresh at&t micro sim card because GO Phone sims are locked to specific IMEI's I believe.

Im using a regular sim card that I cut down. Yes you can use the 50$ nlimeted talk and text but no data, might as well not own a smartphone and buy an iPod touch.

So should I even be arsed to set up a go phone account for htc one x then? Has anyone successfully activated data on there by changing the APN settings?
Don't bother. I already tried setting up wap.Cingular and it doesn't work on One X. It works on my One S just fine.

Just switch to straight talk. Unlimited talk,text,web for 45 a month and you can bring your own smartphone.

Thanks. How are the data speeds? I heard they piggyback off of AT&T.

Typically, Amazon mobile or other 3rd party retailers, will charge more for non-contract phone than AT&T because they can't get any payback from AT&T.
Your biggest problem will be microSIM activation. You may have to buy a microSIM cutter to trim your current go phone SIM yourself. AT&T won't be thrilled to activate One X for a Go phone plan.
There is also a chance that AT&T will stop your data service once it detects that you are using a 4G smartphone (it has the IMEI number on database) on a Go Phone plan. Yes, it happened to others before.
I had no problems getting my 4G One X Activated with GoPhone. They gave me a microSIM to put in my phone and I went home and did so, it has been working since.
