What would happen if I got this?
I'm trying to get an iPhone without the phone company putting me under a costly data plan. If an iPhone is factory unlocked does that mean anyone can use it as long as it's the same service provider (i.e an AT&T iPhone--factory unlocked--when I have AT&T)? Also will it just allow me to use whatever I already pay for as far as capabilities? For example, I have the 3G Service, and then the general texting and calling functions. Will that stay?
Most if not all carriers require a data plan with smartphones regardless of if it's unlocked or not. The costly data plan is nothing compared to the bill you would get if you didn't have the plan.
- What would happen to an old iphone when replaced? Ok so if I had a 4s, then decided to get a new phone, when I change sim cards, etc, what happens to the old 4s? Do I have to toss it out, or can I just use it as an ipod without call, text, and 4g?
- What would happen if you took the sim card out of an iphone 5? If you take your sim card out of your iphone 5, would your iphone not work at all? Or would you still be able to play games and use apps on it?
- What would happen if you downloaded something illegally? Okay so this amazing thing on an IPhone lets you download old games and puts it on a gameboy pad and lets you play it (for example ZELDA) and when I downloaded it it said this " please confirm if you own or are downloading this legally" the app/website didn't ask me for a email or anything it just let me download the game. Would this get me in trouble? Or no?
- What would happen if I walked into AT&T with my iPhone that has ios 7? I've been experiencing some trouble with my iPhone and I want to go in and have them look at it but what would they say?
