Verizon said officially that it is unlocked

You probably screwed up when you cut you SIM card, because if your phone is UNLOCKED, it will either say the name of the carrier, or no service. If your phone is LOCKED it will say INVALID SIM.
So since it said No Sim i'm assuming the sim card is the problem?

Cut another one same way, this time works. It really unlocked for three networks! I think Some old sim can't be cut to nano.

> for example, and unlocked USA Verizon iPhone, is NOT compatible with Tmobile USA, nor ATT USA

I was mistaken, this is no longer true since the iPhone 4s, thanks for the education.

My current understanding is, if you use a Verizon iPhone on ATT, you can get 4g, but not LTE data.

Also, the Verizon iPhone will not let you use data at the same time as voice. The ATT iPhone will let you use data while on a voice call.

So, I still think the Verizon iPhone is not as good as the ATT iPhone, IF you plan to use the ATT network.

Tmobile is even worse, their data speeds are Neither 4g, Nor LTE, you only get 3g data on Tmobile with an iPhone.

again, please correct me if mistaken, these are just my best understandings so far.
