I saw lte is connected, but cannot browse anything, an activation page is shown. Cannot activate with a phone plan. I wonder if I change the rom to the Korean G pad III 8.0 and flash back the modem can unlock this problem ...... give me some thoughts. Can I change the build.prop so to let it connec to the internet through lte? Just do not want to get a tablet line!

i called t-mobile yesterday and they said phone sim cards are different from tablet, so they won't work.

how can u skip the "ConnectMe" screen? Seems like mine is requiring to activate......do u have an unlocked g pad?
Not sure. I don't see that. I interchange the SIMs in my account between the iPad, LG VK810 and LG V521 all the time without any issues. With the VK810, I have to set APN since it's a Verizon unlocked device. I don't have to do anything with the other 2.
