Can a jailbroken iphone 4 be used as a tracfone/prepaid phone?

I have an iPhone 4 on verizon and am going to be upgrading soon. My boyfriend, who's not exactly into the whole hype of having a phone, but he knows he needs one, wants to get a tracfone or something prepaid.
If I jailbrake my iphone (its way past its warrenty anyways) would he be able to use it for tracfone or prepaid service?
Also is there any other fees and such if he were to do this?

No, you would need a att iphone(gsm) to use as prepaid on those networks

  • If i buy a used iphone 4s can i activate it with verizon's prepaid plans? I'm a minor so i can't get a contract on my own, so i figured that a prepaid plan is the best option for me. Is there any sort of deposit or contract or credit check or anything like that? And is it one of those prepaid plans that you get on a card from walmart or something?
