Can I put my normal orange simcard into an iphone 4?
Here's the problem I just got a new contract at christmas time I got the blackberry torch but I'm thinking about buying an iphone 4 soon but my contract doesn't end until next year which means I need to keep this normal sim card could I put it into an iphone so I still have my minutes and texts or do I need a special kind of sim card?
Keep your Berry for the year; wait for the new iPhone to come out and work out the bugs; then go for the Apple.
You're going to need a new micro-sim for the iphone 4. You would have to contact your carrier to receive one.
Iphone does not work on orange anyway.
keep your current phone until the end of your contract and save money.
If you contact Orange to request a microsim, they'll be happy to provide you with one but charge you more than what you're paying now as iPhone plans tend to cost more and they'll insist that your iPhone won't work without one. However that is not true at all! I was in the same position as you once. I had a BlackBerry on contract with Orange, was happy with all my minutes and allowances, I got a sim free iPhone 4S and really wanted to use it as my main phone with all my minutes and number in etc. So I called Orange to ask them about the situation and they said I'd have to get an iPhone plan because my BlackBerry sim would never work and it would cost me more than what I was already paying and would mean I'd have to sacrifice my minutes and also pay extra for the microsim. I just thought it was completely ridiculous so I declined and went on eBay and ordered myself a sim card cutter and cut my own Orange sim card down and have now been using it in my iPhone for 6 months with no problems whatsoever. I suggest you do that too if you do decide to go ahead and purchase an iPhone!
Hope this helps, good luck!
My girlfriend asked for a micro sim and they gave her one, no questions asked, it even came with an adaptor to use it in phones that accept normal sim cards.
You can always get a sim card cutter, but of course it could go wrong.
- Will an orange pay as you go sim card work in my iphone orange contract phone? My orange phone is still in contract but could do with a different number on pay as you go as well, would rather just get the sim card and swap them over, but can always buy a cheap phone as well
- What if I Don't got no simcard for the Iphone 4 but it requires me to put one in? OK well I forgot my password on my Iphone so I had to reset everything but now it won't let me go thru without putting in a Sim card but I Bought this phone without the Sim card a couple days ago is there anyway you can skip this
- Unlocked Iphone 4 still can't read some simcard? I bought my iphone 4 directly from apple in the uk, and it was already unlocked/free from any carrier. It works fine with my italian Tim simcard but it does not work with my Brazilian Tim nor Oi simcards… Any ideas?
- If you put an Iphone4s simcard into an iphone 4 will it take on 4s characteristics? My iphone 4s cracked and I tried to repair it and failed (dumb screws got stripped). Anyway, I put my new phone (the 4s)'s simcard into my old 4.Is there a way that this can gain 4s traits like Siri?
