Can a unlocked verizon iphone 5 be used with tmobile?
I'm thinking about getting an iphone 5 and it has to be unlocked because i'm with T-mobile. I know for sure you can use an unlocked att iphone with T-mobile but i'm not sure with Verizon? Anybody knows if you can use a T-mobile sim card on an unlocked Verizon iphone 5?
I'm not sure but you won't be able to unlock it yourself. Thats for sure.
Yes you can
Why not just get the unlocked ones from Apple? It may work since the 5 is a dual GSM/CDMA phone but I think it would be safer with the Apple unlocked one.
Of course, you can. Verizon iPhone 5 comes unlocked for any SIM.
Well, I would wait because T-Mobile will be getting the iPhone themselves shortly. This will allow you to use one that is not unlocked, if you so wish. In fact, T-Mobile is making an announcement today that is expected to include information about the iPhone.
Instead of getting a phone that has been unlocked from another carrier, I would really recommend you purchase one from Apple directly which is factory unlocked. In this manner you know it is a legitimate product and has not been reported lost/stolen. It will also have a warranty with it. I purchased mine in this way and use it on T-Mobile without any problems.
If you do want to use a phone that has been unlocked from another carrier, I do believe that if it is an iPhone 5 (not a previous model) that it can, indeed, be used on T-Mobile.
Because who in their right man will want to pay 6 or 700 dollars for an apple unlocked iPhone
- Will an unlocked iphone 4S work for tmobile if it isn't factory unlocked? I want to get an iPhone 4S and my friend has the iPhone 4 unlocked but i'm worried that if i get it non-factory unlocked it won't work. My uncle tried to do it a couple of months ago and apple said that if it was factory unlocked every time the phone shut off or died it would reset. I was just wondering if the same thing would happen if it wasn't factory unlocked? So if I get it unlocked everytime it will shut off it will reset? That is what i'm worried about.
- Verizon iphone 4s unlocked to tmobile update to ios7? I have an iphone that is from verizon and i got it unlocked to work for tmobile. I want to update it to latest ios 7. Can i update it without the unlock going away? If i can will my phone keep working after?
- Used unlocked cell phone from verizon? I want to get another phone, but I don't want to buy it from Verizon s store. If I buy an unlocked iPhone from an online source like eBay will Verizon s workers honor that and activate it if I didn't buy it from their store? I'm not tech savy so I really have no clue.
- I purchased a used Verizon iPhone 4 and want to activate it on my Verizon account? A friend uses her dad's old iPhone on her AT&T account as her phone without a data plan. I want to do the same and replace my 12 year old's flip phone. Verizon says I must purchase another data plan to activate this phone to my account. Any suggestions? Otherwise we're thru with Verizon.
