Factory vs Software Unlocked iPhone

http://www.ebay.com/...1079953555

I want to buy this iPhone 4S off of Ebay. The seller states that the iPhone is NOT factory unlocked, but IS software unlocked. The phone is factory locked on Verizon, and the phone does not come with an SIM card.

As of now, I'm not on a cell phone/carrier plan. If I was to get this phone, I would use it without having any service on it. Would I still be able to access and use every/all features of the phone that do not require data (i.e., Wi-Fi, camera, apps etc) without having to have a Verizon plan?

Iphone 5s not charging? URGENT?

Phone isn't charging at all and it's not the chargers, cables, sockets or plugs? It's not charging and i need my phone for alot of things, when i turn my phone off and plug the charger in it comes back on but then just doesn't charge as soon as my home screen comes on? Nothings working, already cleared out the charging socket and nothing!

Can i switch my sim card from my iphone to a moto g?

I currently have an iphone 4 on an att gophone plan. It was my moms and once her contract was up she put it on my prepaid plan for me. Its gotten really slow and i want to switch to an unlocked moto g. Can i just switch the sim cards and be on my way or do i have to go to att and have them do it?

My current plan is the talk and text gophone plan without data and the iphone runs fine without data. At&t also said we don't have to purchase data on a smartphone if it is used on on the gophone plans, if it were on contract you do… So can i buy a no contract unlocked moto g and put the iphone sim into it? Will the new phone work or will at&t have to activate it?

Added (1). I do know that both the iphone 4 and moto g use a micro sim

Does iphone a1457 work in usa?

I bought the phone from Dubai, I travel about many countries so I'm not really going to dwell if it doesn't work in USA but I wanted to know if it does?

Does this iPhone Battery look damaged?

I just did a self repair and after a replacement of home button and speaker enclosure, I began have charging issues after i reassembled everything back. Atm, the phone will only indicate the apple logo once it is plugged in to usb charger and turn itself back off after several seconds (the phone is unable to turn on by itself/charge, hence it is impossible to do dfu mode or resets)

As shown on image, the battery appears to have slightly been punctured (during repair), but I'm not too sure if this is what contributes to the charging issue. Initially, there was no issue with the battery before the repair, which is why I'm speculating whether this is the problem or not.

So before I try to order a new battery, I want to seek a bit of input from what people think may be the cause of the issue, because, otherwise, i may resort to contemplating whether the issue is caused by the prong connections on the motherboard or the dock socket.)

Why am I receiving group texts so late?

I have an iPhone 4s and for the past two or three days I've been getting group chat texts hours late and they all come In at once. I use AT&T and all but it's weird cause I receive texts from people texting individualy but group texts just don't work. I've already checked my setting and stuff so I just need help trying to fix it
