Disconnecting Sprint - want to take my iphone to Tmobile?
I understand these are incompatible networks (I think)
Is there a way to "jailbreak" or "unlock" these phones?
We have 2 iPhone 5s and 1 iPhone 4s for our family
Unlocking wouldn't help to make a CDMA phone work with a GSM network or vice versa.
Bill is right, cdma (sprint, verizon) phones can't be put on a gsm (T-Mobile, att) carrier due to technological incompatibilities. However, all iPhone 4s's and newer are dual mode (cdma and gsm) regardless of carrier. This means your phones are technically compatible with tmobile. The issue is that sprint will not under any circumstance unlock a phone of theirs for domestic use with another provider, leaving you to finding a 3rd party to do this for you. The success rate of this process is fairly low, and will cost a bit of money to even try. Even if its successfull, your phones might stop working in a few weeks/months. Your best bet is to trade your phones into tmobile and start an EIP with an official T-Mobile device. If your still under contract with sprint, they will also pay your termination fee when you switch and trade in your phones.

- Internet on my iphone keeps disconnecting? Okay so i have the iphone 3g (yes, i know it's old, please don't remind me) and everytime i use it i clearly have internet. The only problem is after about a minute my internet shuts down, this happens every single time.
