Is the T-Mobile iPhone 5 factory unlocked?
I was thinking about buying an iPhone 5 off of my friend who has T-Mobile. I was wondering if it's an iPhone 5, and its being used on T-Mobile, would it be factory unlocked already? I have AT&T, so if I were to just buy it, and put in the new nano sim from AT&T, would the iPhone 5 work flawlessly on the AT&T network with the LTE and everything working perfectly?
No they are not. Only the Verizon model is.
You'd have to get it unlocked.
- 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.
