Why is unlocked iPhone on T-mobile network displaying AT&T sometimes?
I have an AT&T iPhone that was unlocked by AT&T for use with T-Mobile. Usually, in the top right of the screen, "T-Mobile" is displayed next to the signal bars. Sometimes, however, it switches to "AT&T."
Why does it do that? Is that OK?
Tmobile uses ("rents" lmao) approxiamtely 63% of ATT towers in the USA…
you are obviously connected to an ATT tower on tmobile signal… Plus your APN settings may still contain ATT data… This is why your alpha tag is displaying ATT and not Tmobile sometimes…
its normal… Its not gonna kill the phone or you or rip a hole in the space-time continuum…
The reason why it displays an ATT is because TMobile shares a tower with ATT. So no need to worry about it.

- Why is my iPhone 4S not displaying the status bar when I'm on Safari? I was on YouTube and then I look up and the status bar on my iPhone wasn't there! It's there on any other app but on Safari it totally disappears. What is wrong with my iPhone? No my phone is new. I got it for my birthday about 6 months ago. It was in its box and my parents got it at best buy. So it's not jail broken.
