Not really. Discussion was about LG X and some iPhones. No one discussed about Samsung and especially S8.
it makes perfect sense in business sense. lock the phones to xm. phones limited bands on other services.

especially eliminating people looking to resell devices for top dollar after xm gives each person 500+. eliminates the scammers an potential promo abuse too for those specifically not looking to stay with xm.

will be very interested to see if all the phones are programmed the same or if just certain ones.

Did you read main post? S7 $516+tax vs $500+$200 = at least free phone and $140 free money.

I don't want to "scam" Comcast, I'd like to test out their service. However, Tmobile band 12 is the only LTE at my work right now. I would like to ensure that whatever phone I get, if for some reason I decide to unlock later and use on Tmobile, will do just that.

So, am I in iPhone territory? Or should I just sell the phone in February and buy something else?

Also interesting to note the model number on the back of the phone is not the Verizon Galaxy S8 code G950V, but rather G950U (Samsung original unbranded code). It definitely comes with XM firmware though, and carrier lock. I removed SIM card before first power-up and it asked for an XM SIM card.
Quick google search tells me that model has Band 4, 12 support.

(Bands 1,2,3,4,5,7,8,12,20,28,29,30,38,39,40,41)

http://www.phonemore.com/samsung-...specs/3270

Very interesting. Any idea what model number of S8+ and Note 8 are shipping? Like I just posted, I don't want to grab anything that can't work on Band 12.

We do not know what they did to the device - they can simple turn off some bands in engineering menu and re-flashing wont help to activate them.

already posted in other threads. sim workaround limits service on other carriers. xm phones only work fully on xm service.
I spoke to xm and have read in other threads, if you pay full - like any carrier xm will give you unlock codes.

Some have tried earlier and xm has been generous.

One way is to say you are going overseas...

Has any one unlocked and tried on non verizon or xm?

(As verizon phones iPhone- come with most bands and are unlocked at start. Understand that xm is locking them. )

For the 90 days of active service, is that 24h a day? What if I turn the phone off at night?

90 Days of account.
you could have 0 data or no calls. (XM 2gb plan could be $0 + min taxes if no data. calls & text are free)

By having it on and active for even short period, registers that phone and show.

Same question, is it not enough to keep service active with the xfinity sim in another phone?
Is the pairing of phone and sim mandatory to get the gift card?

For the 90th freaking time yes the xm Sim card and the phone have to be paired for the 90 plus days for the visa card to be shipped to you. Damn

Deep breaths. Again where in the past 26 pages has this been mentioned/the rationale for it explained. I don't see the logic of why it wouldn't work if the phone was on and the card was in a different phone. You didn't explain why or how but ok I'll take your word for it LOL
