SIM Card Notes:

If you are planning to add a SIM card to your unit to give it its own cell plan, here are some tips to help you get through the process of sourcing your SIM card as easily as possible:

Just about every cell provider will want you to provide an “IMEI” number to purchase a SIM card for use in any device. This radio’s IMEI number is one digit too short to be a valid number, so even if you supply it, the number will come back as invalid, so there is no use in even logging it or giving it to your provider – IT WILL NOT WORK.

What you will need to do is to go to an actual (Verizon, T-Mobile, ATT, etc.) and NOT a franchise store, and ask to see the store manager.

DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME ON A FLOOR SALESPERSON, AS THEY GENERALLY WILL NOT KNOW HOW TO DO WHAT YOU NEED.

Tell them you need a “BYOD” (Bring Your Own Device) SIM Card. Tell them you do not have an IMEI number for it. Tell them it is a standard tablet. Do not mention that it is a radio – this will only confuse them and prolong the process!

They may argue that they need an IMEI to get a card activated – this is not true. If they refuse to provide a card, go to another factory store and ask to see the manager. Eventually, you will be able to find a person to provide a “BYOD” SIM card.

Once you have the SIM card, pop it into the radio’s SIM Card slot and do a hard reset (paper clip in the RST hole), and it should report as soon as the the radio reboots. You can check this by going to Settings>System>Android Settings>Connections>SIM Card and verifying a phone number on SIM1.

ATT SUBSCRIBERS:

ATT SIM cards need to treat the radio differently than other devices and will require a different configuration to be entered in the Android “Connections” section.
