Vibrant getting 3g with at&t sim

[rangercaptain]

Is this possible? I dialed *#2263#, selected the combi bands, then rebooted, and I had the 3g icon.

Thank you, I saw that and a few others. I guess what I mean is - am I getting 3g speed, or just an icon. How can you confirm this?

It has been discussed time and time again on these forums.

The vibrant is able to get 3g speeds from AT&T because it supports the 1900 UTMS frequency. AT&T uses BOTH 850 & 1900 but mostly 850.

I believe it was confirmed on the official Samsung website that the vibrant works on 1700/2100(AWS)/1900/2100 3g frequencies.

Correct. You'll get 3g speeds, but you wont get as good reception and will most likely drop back to edge more often that you normally would on tmobile.
