How to switch from an iPhone 6 to a flip phone temporarily?

I have an iPhone 6 that is on it's last leg and I still have four months left on my contract. How can I use an older phone, like a flip phone, and keep my phone number? I only want to do this until my phone is off contract and I can get a new one. Is it possible? The iPhone 6 uses a nano SIM and does not fit into any kind of Micro SIM holder.

I think you would have to contact your phone carrier, so they can transfer over the number. I'm not sure if they will let you though since you're on contract. You could try and ask though. Another option you could do is just buy a cheap prepaid phone from tracfone or something and use that temporarily.

You can buy SIM adapters to put micro/nano sims into phones which take larger ones.
My local "pound shop" sells them (like the coloured ones below); most independent phone shops should have them as well.

Or, get a "free" (or 99p / 99 cent) prepay SIM, throw away the nano SIM and press yours back into the larger SIM frame…

  • Iphone tossing your phone to flip without Left-Right rotation? This is a physics question. Take your phone out from your pocket. Hold it out on your right hand having your thumb on the bottom middle of your phone (front side) and having your Index and middle finger on the middle of the back of your phone. Try and do a perfect backflip. Notice how your phone will try and rotate from left-to-right while doing the flip. It's almost impossible to do a perfect backflip. Why is this?
  • Iphone says your iphone can't be activated bc the activation server is temporarily unavailable? I called the carrier i have and they said to reset my phone so i did it still just says this i can't even use my phone what do i do
