Sprint iPhone 4S, can I use on straight talk?
I just bought a sprint iPhone 4S, I called straight talk and asked if it would work if I got a straight talk micro SIM card and if I would get service everywhere I do now with my AT&T android, her answer was yes it would definitely work. I've seen a million different answers on google tho. Has anyone tried this or is doing it now? Please give me and answer and explanation. Thank you!(:
Added (1). The iPhone I bought today HAS A MICRO SIM CARD SLOT.
Short answer, no. Here is why. The iPhone 4s from sprint is a CDMA phone. Meaning the phone is locked to sprints service, and does not use a sim card, same with verizon wireless. In order to use the iPhone 4s with straight talk, you need a GSM iPhone. GSM carrirers use sim cards. Examples of these would be AT&T, and T-mobile.So, in order for you to do this, you need to get a GSM iPhone 4s, from AT&T or T-mobile. I do know, you can go to wal mart, and purchase the iPhone 5 with straight talk service, sadly you have to pay full price for the phone, but you get to make small monthly payments if you use a walmart credit card.
The previous answer posted is not correct. Straight Talk uses both GSM and CDMA networks depending on the phone you have. The lease cell access from both Verizon and AT&T.
I've found the latter to be true. The phone can be unlocked. You tube it. The answer is there…
I have a SIM card in my iPhone 4S so are you saying I can't put a straight talk sim in it? And if I do it won't work even if I jailbreak it?

- Jailbroken sprint iphone 5 on tmobile or straight talk? I know the sprint phone 5 is locked to only sprint or international gsm use. But what if its jailbroken is there some app or tweak in cydia? I had the iphone 4s jailbroken but converted to android. I would really love the iphone 5 on prepaid so any help would be great.
- How to unlock a Sprint iphone 5C for use with Straight Talk? The phone has a bad/active ESN and can't be used with Sprint. That's fine because I want to use it with Straight Talk. It is currently locked. I know I need to unlock it, but I do not know how to do that. Is it true Sprint does not give unlock codes, so it is impossible? If the old owner owes money on a Sprint account on that iphone, can it not be unlocked? Would it also need to be jailbroken or flashed? Or are those the same things as unlocking?
