Can I use a verizon iphone 4 with at&t pay as you go?
Is there any way to use iphone 4 with at&t pay as you go? I know there are unlocking tutorials etc. That you can use, but I want to be sure before I buy this used verizon iphone 4. Also do I have to be worried about getting a bad ESN if I'm unlocking it anyway? Any info is appreciated.
Verizon phones can't work on AT&T's network and vice-versa. It has nothing to do with locked vs.unlocked or prepaid or not; the problem is that AT&T uses GSM radio format to talk to their cell towers, but Verizon uses CDMA format. Those are two different formats which require different electronics inside the phones.
What this all means is that the *only* iPhone that *might* be able to work on AT&T pay as you go, is another GSM iPhone. And in the USA, I think AT&T is the only company that has iPhones that are GSM (I know Sprint is also CDMA, not GSM).
If you want to try this, here's a page that says how to do it (I have no idea if it really works):

P.S. Also, GSM phones require SIM cards, but CDMA phones don't use SIM cards. Just another reason why this won't work.
- Verizon upgrade fee? Can I pay at the store or do I have to pay it the next bill? I plan on upgrading my phone and renewing my contract next month in January. I plan on getting the iPhone 5s. I'm on this family plan with one line. Is there's an activation fee that I have to pay? Can I pay the upgrade fee at the store while purchasing the new phone? Or do I have to pay it on the next bill?
- T Mobile or Verizon. Should I pay T-Mobile 175.00 for an upgrade or 94.00 to Verizon for new phone? I want the iPhone 6s plus. I'm already with t mobile but there internet is a bit slow sometimes. Its the jump plan ill get. Ill pay 12.00 for 24 mo. And if i get a new phone they won't run my credit again. But with verizon they'll run my credit. Is pretty good. But i don't want anybody to really run my credit tho lower it. I'm not sure about verizon internet but the commercials looks pretty good. They bboth have unlimited internet. What should I do?
- Is pay as you go better than pay monthy for an iphone? I can either can an iphone 4 (32gb with small scratch on screen) for 100 pounds and then have a pay as you go sim or an 8gb iphone 4 for "effectively 14.88 a month". Which works out the better deal?
- If you unlock a verizon iphone 4 can you use it with any carrier? I was wondering if you unlock a verizon iPhone 4 can you use it with other carriers like sprint or t-mobile or something?
