“ATT SAMSUNG activation and migration question? If I buy a ATT SAMSUNG Note 5 with the ATT next 24 plan, do I need to go to an ATT store to activate the new device or does it come activated? Also, do you provide the software, etc. to move apps and data from my older Samsung Phone?”

I will answer part 2 first. You can download a Samsung smart switch app that allows you to quickly move your apps settings, photos videos and passwords from your old samsung to your new one. I was very impressed by its speed. As for activating the phone, I bought mine at the best buy store so best buy activated it for me. I am assuming if you bup online you should be able to activate it yourself but that is only an assumption.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Everything is handled in store
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If you bought it at best buy, they'll do the moving and activation at the store. If you didn't have it activated at best buy, you can call customer service and they' ll activate for you. No need going to an AT&T store. You'll need the IMIE number.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Smart Switch software is free from the app store / Google Play Store, and they'll activate it right there on the spot!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Best Buy gives you a sim and activation instructions. Takes 5 min.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If you buy it anywhere you will have to get it activated as far as your apps, pictures and contacts they have an app that you can download to both phones and it will send the info to your new phone att or best buy will do it for you it takes about 30-45 minutes to complete so you may want to do it at home strongly suggest using wifi
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I understand that AT&T has dropped their 2-year contracts.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Personally I'd go to Best buy their tech people are more than capable to get your phone up and running. They also migrated my stuff over too.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It doesn't come activated. You can take the phone to Best Buy or to AT&T and they'll take care of everything, including moving apps and data. I think AT&T will mail you your new sim card if that's what you want. Samsung has apps to handle most of the transition to your new phone, available on the Samsung site.
