Will my iphone 5 work in Peru?
I'm currently in Peru. And my iphone5 that i had a plan with tmobile (prepaid) in the US changed its service to Mobistar but i can only receive messages and i can't do anything else. No internet or phone calls. Is there any way that i can change it so that i can call into and text into the states?
Added (1). My phone is unlocked
Unless your phone is unlocked. Then it should be fine. In the US The reason why phones are so cheap is because they are locked to the cellphone company, so you can't use it anywhere else except the company u r using it in. If you bought your phone somewhere else and is it at least $500 USD, then it should be unlocked. If your phone is unlocked, then you can get it unlocked at Verizon (i heard that it was free).
Actually if your 2 year contract is up you should call your carrier and tell them to unlock it.
If your phone is unlocked and you have a Movistar SIM card from Peru (and a Peruvian phone #), it may be that you just need to buy airtime. If it is not a Peruvian SIM card you may have to buy one.
- Will this iPhone work in Peru? http://www.amazon.com/...00598BY6W/ If i bring one of these phones to Peru will I be able to use it with a mobile company from here? (Movistar)
- Will I be able to use an iPhone 4 from the US in Peru? Well I'm thinking on buying a used iPhone 4 in the US and bring it to Peru to use it here but I was wondering if it must be unlocked. Also, I heard there are some mobile companies in the US that don't use SIM cards or something similar so I guess that I won't be able to use the iPhone in Peru in that case. Correct me if I'm wrong though, I'm not sure about that. But if I'm correct, then which mobile companies DO have SIM cards so I can use the phone here?
- Why won't my iPhone earbuds work on my iPhone but work fine on a computer? So I have the worst luck with earbuds and it happens to be reoccurring. I have a normal iPhone 5 and I enjoy music but when I listen to my songs only one earbud will work while the other one is dead. I can go on my computer and they will both work so I was wondering why they both won't work on my phone?
- My iphone internal speaker doesn't work on phone calls but does work when hearing a voicemail? The speaker to talk won't work but will work to play music, but not while making a phone call. Or i could hear my voicemail but when making a call i can't hear anything.
